You’re leaving pavement, flying high
Those weathered eyes
And heavy sighs
Won’t sink
But If I can catch you, I’ll be grown
But If I can catch you, I’ll be grown
But If I can catch you, no less to
Know that it’ll be worth your weight in stone
Look, I ain’t really gotta rap about it, I just talk about it ’cause I live it now
So let me tell you ’bout this PYT, that I seen this week, I had to take a bow
5’2″ with a brown fur and her hair tied with them light eyes
And she would make me throw it all away for a fun time and the right prize
All our times have come
Here, but now they’re gone
Seasons don’t fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
I wish I could hold you forever
She’ll only come out at night, the lean and hungry type
Nothing is new, I’ve seen her here before
Watching and waiting
Ooh, she’s sitting with you, but her eyes are on the door
So many have paid to see what you think you’re getting for free
The woman is wild, a she-cat tamed by the purr of a Jaguar
Money’s the matter
If you’re in it for love, you ain’t gonna get too far
(Oh-oh, here she comes) Watch out, boy, she’ll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes) She’s a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes) Watch out, boy, she’ll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes) She’s a maneater
I am a patient boy
I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait
My time is like water down a drain
Everybody’s moving, everybody’s moving
Everybody’s moving, moving, moving, moving
Please don’t leave me to remain
What if there was no light?
Nothing wrong, nothing right?
What if there was no time?
And no reason or rhyme?
What if you should decide
That you don’t want me there by your side?
That you don’t want me there in your life?
Girls don’t like boys
Girls like cars and money
I can love you with my eyes closed
I don’t lose sight of your beauty
‘Cos your heart is fine gold baby
Imma take my time with your mind
Your ambition won’t leave me alone
Tell me ’bout your dreams, tell me everything
Don’t nobody care about your heart like I do
Girl I’m down for you just the way that you’re down for me
Body like a queen
But it ain’t about your body baby it’s about your being
I ain’t rolling up, but I’m on a high
When you really think about it, ain’t no wonder why
This is America
Don’t catch you slippin’ now
Don’t catch you slippin’ now
Look what I’m whippin’ now
You feel the vibe, it’s contagious
Look in yo eyes, shit is dangerous
Rockin’, rollin’, swaggin’ to the max
My b…. a fashion killa, she be busy poppin’ tags
She got a lotta Prada, that Dolce & Gabbana
I can’t forget Escada, and that Balenciaga
I’m sippin’ purple syrup, come be my Aunt Jemima
And if you is a rider, we’ll go shoppin’ like mañana
Her attitude Rihanna, she get it from her mama
She jiggy like Madonna, but she trippy like Nirvana
‘Cause everything designer,
Her jeans is Helmut Lang, shoes is Alexander Wang
And her shirt the newest Donna, Karan
Wearin’ all the Cartier frames
Jean Paul Gaultiers ’cause they match with her persona
I’m pimpin’, now who am I? I’m who and why
I’m rude and kind, my cars are computerized
I’m cruisin’ by, smokin’ blunts Ruben size
You fools can try, these tools getting utilized
You euthanized, blrtt, skrrt, shoot then drive
Now who survived? We comin’ back to rewind
I’m usually high, sippin’ on the Houston wine
Feel humanized, I want my throne to recline
Oye cómo va mi ritmo
Bueno pa’ gozar, mulata
Oye cómo va mi ritmo
Bueno pa’ gozar mulata
I took a walk around the world to
Ease my troubled mind
I left my body lying somewhere
In the sands of time
I watched the world float to the dark
Side of the moon
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah
I watched the world float to the
Dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be something
To do with you
I really don’t mind what happens now and then
As long as you’ll be my friend at the end
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand
I’ll keep you by my side with
My superhuman might
Kryptonite
Though his mind is not for rent
Don’t put him down as arrogant
His reserve a quiet defense
Riding out the day’s events
The river
I make money when I talk
Back when ratchet was a ratchet and a vixen was a vixen
And Jam Master Jay was alive I was mixin’
Cookin’ coke in the kitchen
Back when Rodman was a Piston
Mike was losin’ to Isiah, but he soon would get his sixth one
Gave birth to my verbal imagination
Assume a virtue if you have not
Or better yet here’s a verse from Hamlet
“Lord, we know who we are
Yet we know not what we may be”
So maybe I’m the one or maybe I’m crazy
I’m from Marcy Houses, where the boys die by the thousand
Back when Pam was on Martin
Yeah, that’s where it all started
Didn’t you know, I was waiting on you
Waiting on a dream that’ll never come true
Didn’t you know, I was waiting on you
My face turned to stone when I heard the news
When you decide to break the rules
Cause I just heard some real bad news
Ooh, baby, what you wishin’ for?
Maybe you should wish it more
Maybe the world is yours
Maybe when it rains, it pours
I don’t know how to wish anymore
I don’t know how to wish anymore
Or do I?
Yo, when you’re rolling to the Carnival, anything can happen
What, what, say what, say what, anything can happen
Making love to your girlfriend, anything can happen
What? Say what, say what, anything can happen
If you my dog I gotta ride with you
I got you dog on whatever the issue
Carry on my wayward son
For there’ll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don’t you cry no more
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it, I’m so into you
I really like what you’ve done to me
I can’t really explain it, I’m so into you
Look, holla at me when you multi-million
I told you keep playin’ with my name
And I’ma let it ring on you like Virginia Williams
I’m too resilient, get out your feelings
It’s gonna be a cruel summer for you
I told Weezy and Baby, “I’ma done him for you.”
Tell ‘Ye we got a invoice comin’ to you
Considerin’ that we just sold another 20 for you
I never knew anybody ’til I knew you
I never knew anybody ’til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
Are you the only one
Lost in the millions?
Or are you my grain of sand
That’s blowing in the wind?
If there’s food for thought then I’m guilty of greed
Mama said take what you want – I took heed
I wish I knew you when I was young
We could’ve got so high
Now we’re here it’s been so long
Two strangers in the bright lights
Oh, I hope you don’t mind
We can share my mood
Two strangers in the bright lights
I wish I knew you
I wish I knew you
Oh, I wish I knew you when I was young
Well, we were just another band out of Boston
On the road to try to make ends meet
Playin’ all the bars, sleepin’ in our cars
And we practiced right on out in the street
No, we didn’t have much money
We barely made enough to survive
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play
People came alive
Rock and roll band, everybody’s waitin’
Gettin’ crazy, anticipating love and music
Play, play, play
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We don’t really care about the trends you like to follow
You know what they say, they here today and gone tomorrow
Oooh
Oooh
If I’m in the mood I get as ratchet as I wanna
Turn around and show you, I could bless you with some culture
Oooh
Oooh
Workin’ ain’t no nine to five
California that’s a vibe
Friends, that’s always down to ride
You know, you know that’s the life
We just wanna have some fun
It’s some love for everyone
Pass it ’round when you get done
That’s the move yeah that’s the one
Bobby, tell me who really ’bout it
Bitch, I doubt it, not a single person work harder than Bobby
Just wrote a novel, starrin’ in a movie
Built another business while you at the party
Ain’t one to flex, but yeah I’m finna flex
I just parked that new i8 right next to the Audi
Copped that G-Wagon right there for my shawty
Yeah, now they know the name, yeah, they know Bobby
Shown to the place you fold
There’s nothing to be without it
Turned to the debt you owe
There’s no way to move around it
So much for feeling grounded
Do you realize
That you have the most beautiful face?
Do you realize
We’re floating in space?
Do you realize
That happiness makes you cry?
Do you realize
That everyone you know someday will die?
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes, let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It’s hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn’t go down
It’s just an illusion caused by the world spinning ’round
Turn off the light, she said
I’m going to bed
I don’t wanna talk right now
I’m turning my head
If we could go back to where we first started
I would go right now
Remember the days before this all started
It’s got me thinking how
I don’t worry ’bout my student loans
Future talk
I gotta worry ’bout where I call home
Future talk
The future’s pressing under to pair me with a lover
Even though I’m not the only man that’s scared to be alone
