I can spend all day out if you want
I can take you places, wanna come?
And I can spend all day until you’re down
‘Cause for you, I got time, time, time
We ain’t gotta ever see the sun
I got everything to turn you on
We can go all day until you’re down
‘Cause for you, I got time, time, time
I’ve been at the wrong place at the wrong time
Chasin’ all the wrong things most of my life
Been every kinda lost that you can’t find
But I got one thing right
Been the kinda guy girls mamas don’t like
Runnin’ with the wrong crowd on the wrong nights
’Cause I’ve been wrong about a million times
But I got one thing right, you
I lost at love before
Gave up and closed the door
But you said try just once more
I chose you for the one
Now I’m having so much fun
You treated me so kind
I’m about to lose my mind
You made me so very happy
I’m so glad you came into my life
See I was resting at the park minding my own
Business as I kick up the treble tone
On my radio tape player box, right
Just loud enough so folks could hear it’s hype, see?
Outta nowhere comes the woman I’m dating
Investigation maybe she was demonstrating
But nevertheless I was pleased
My day was going great and my soul was at ease
You must have time on your hands
‘Cause all the time you been hatin’
I know you’re mad that I’m famous
I know you’re mad that I made it
When all the time you been hatin’
You could’ve turned into something
Sometimes it works out for people
Sometimes it really just doesn’t
I wanna spend my nights with you
My life with you, oh baby, babe
Please wait up for me ’til whenever I get home
I know that you’re all alone
Thinking ’bout what you’re gon’ do
I hope that you see it through, ooh, ooh
‘Cause where I come from
Everybody frowns and walks around
With that ugly thing on their face
And where I come from
We work hard and grind and hustle all day
(Yes, we do)
There comes a time, there comes a time
At night, where we get to play
And we smile and laugh and jump and clap
And yell and holler and just feel great
I want to make this play
Oh, I know you’re faded
Hmm, but stay, don’t close your hands
I want to make this play
Oh, I know you’re faded
Hmm, but stay, don’t close your hands
Caught in this pool held in your eyes
Caught like a fool without a line
We’re in a natural spring
With this gentle sting between us
And I’m actually gonna get right into it
And your really wanna know how?
You know how can I blaze my own path?
Uh, how can I be successful?
Um, how can I follow the path
That someone else has laid for me to be successful?
Oh, I was reckless, once was breathless
Running from that day I snapped
But I’ve got a feeling and keep believing
I’m never gonna give this back
I feel like you let me down
Book the hotel, take the vibes in
A little lost, a little rough
I asked myself, “Have you had enough?”
How do I start to retrace the steps
I haven’t even taken yet
The fear of what I’m facing in the mirror
Stops me cold and leaves me here
A little lost, a little rough
The lack of answers all led up
Took a trip to San Francisco
All our friends said we would jive
Didn’t work, so I left for Fresno
It was quite a scenic drive
Pulled over to watch the children in the park
We used to only worry for them after dark
I’m still looking for my own version of America
One without the gun, where the flag can freely fly
No bombs in the sky, only fireworks when you and I collide
It’s just a dream I had in mind
It’s just a dream I had in mind
It’s just a dream I had in mind
Pot to piss in, not a ribbon, never forgot a Christmas
Father figure not around, that’s such a major difference
I would play with all my homies’ gifts
I understood I didn’t wanna trip
Get practiced what you lack is you think like the average
If you aren’t here to party
You picked the wrong place
You picked the wrong Friday night
If you aren’t here to party
You’ll be missing out on the
Best damn time of your life
So go on and throw your card down
Knock a shot out
And get yourself in the zone
Yeah, you might as well go on
And head your ass back home
If you aren’t here to party
Yeah, is it too late now to say sorry?
Cause I’m missing more than just your body
Is it too late now to say sorry?
Yeah I know that I let you down
Is it too late to say I’m sorry now?
You don’t stand a chance, matter of fact, you don’t have half the stance
To stand if you stood half a chance
Ride till I die, Lord knows stay high, and I love it
Let’s go!
We count hundreds on the table, twentys on the floor
Fresh outta work and on the way with some more
And I love it (yeah!), and I love it
I got gangstas in the crowd, bad b…… at my show
Parked outside, and sitting on fo’s
And I love it (yeah!), and love it
The windows are, the perfect picture
They’re always changing
Go on get lost, jump in the waters
When they are raging
I Say
Spill out on streets of stars
And ride away
Find out what you are
Face to face
Once you’ve had enough
Carry on
Don’t forget to love
Before you’re gone
Can you lie next to her
And give her your heart, your heart
As well as your body?
And can you lie next to her
And confess your love, your love
As well as your folly?
And can you kneel before the king
And say, “I’m clean, I’m clean”?
But tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with my whole heart?
Oh, tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with my whole heart?
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted, I bought them for you
Graceless lady, you know who I am
You know I can’t let you slide through my hands
I got the horses in the back
Horse tack is attached
Hat is matte black
Got the boots that’s black to match
Ridin’ on a horse, ha
You can whip your Porsche
I been in the valley
You ain’t been up off that porch, now
Can’t nobody tell me nothin’
You can’t tell me nothin’
Can’t nobody tell me nothin’
You can’t tell me nothin’
She’ll lie and steal and cheat
And beg you from her knees
Make you thinks she means it this time
She’ll tear a hole in you, the one you can’t repair
But I still love her, I don’t really care
When we were young
Oh oh, we did enough
When it got cold
Ooh ooh, we bundled up
I can’t be told
Ah ah it can’t be done
Two kids with their hearts on fire
Who’s gonna save us now?
When we thought that we couldn’t get higher
Things started looking down
I look at you and you look at me
Like nothing but strangers now
Two kids with their hearts on fire
Don’t let it burn us out
‘Cause I know we be so complicated
But we be so smitten, it’s crazy
I can’t have what I want, but neither can you
You’re ‘posed to hold me down, but you’re holding me back
And that’s the sound of me not calling you back
I’ve seen the bridge and the bridge is long
And they built it high and they built it strong
Strong enough to hold the weight of time
Long enough to leave some of us behind
And every one of us has to face that day
Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away
And every one of us that ever came to play
Has to cross the bridge or fade away
Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren’t you feeling alone?
I guess it’s just another
I guess it’s just another
I guess it’s just another night alone
Crossing all my T’s
And I’m dotting all my I’s
Gotta watch out for debris
When it’s fallin’ down
As far as I can see
I done confronted all the shit
I couldn’t walk around
Keep a piece when you on the ground
Leakin’, you hard as Hell
Keep some wind in my sails
Walkin’ down La Brea
Name ringin’ bells like we got some mail
Welcome to the concrete jungle
Got snakes, got bears, got lions no muzzles
And they all tryin to cause me trouble
Got the big tre-8 long nose no muzzle
Don’t be trippin when you see us in the club
Just show a little love, represent your side like me
Cause ’round here if you slick you pick a hot one
Ride shotgun, couple of ’em got one
Belvedere in the rear of the club
Pulled up on dubs and we ’bout to go and buy the bar up
So So, for sure we ain’t playin
Hang with no lames, hit the park and sayin…
It’s all about survival
But jealous rivals make it hard for us to do this
I’m ’bout to go fill up a safe (Totally, dude)
