Late 808

That I’d fallen for a lie
You were never on my side
Fool me once, fool me twice
Are you death or paradise?
Now you’ll never see me cry
There’s just no time to die

Am I wrong for thinkin’ out the box from where I stay?
Am I wrong for sayin’ that I choose another way?
I ain’t tryin’ to do what everybody else doin’
Just ’cause everybody doin’ what they all do
If one thing I know – I’ll fall, but I’ll grow
I’m walking down this road of mine, this road that I call home

So am I wrong
For thinkin’ that we could be something for real?
Now am I wrong
For tryin’ to reach the things that I can’t see?
But that’s just how I feel (Ooh, ooh)
That’s just how I feel (Ooh, ooh)
That’s just how I feel
Trying to reach the things that I can’t see (Ooh, ooh, see, see)

Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don’t take it all

‘Cause I’m the taxman
Yeah, I’m the taxman

A love letter came through the mail, it said, “I miss you”

So I put my faith in something unknown
I’m living on such sweet nothing
But I’m trying to hope with nothing to hold
I’m living on such sweet nothing
And it’s hard to learn, and it’s hard to love
When you’re giving me such sweet nothing
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
You’re giving me such sweet nothing

I was somewhere two thousand and daydream
I was hot that I couldn’t face things
I used to live my life in this
I fell out of sync, audio phasing
Felt like I couldn’t find my placing

Sky shivers there
They turn to rain
I turn again
I wish we could heal
I’ll take you home
I’ll make you whole
You made me wish
That this wasn’t real

Because you’re
You’re my treasure
Because you’re
You’re my treasure

I know this little girl, her name is Maxine
Her beauty is like a bunch of rose
If I ever tell you about Maxine
You only say I don’t know what I know (but)
Murder she wrote (for real, for real)
Murder she wrote
Murder she wrote
Murder she wrote

If you only knew, all my problems
I’m pretty sure you would’ve run off
If I only knew, how to solve ’em
I’d give you all to me, swear I’d do anything
To find a way
To make it go away
If you only knew, all my problems
Would you still want to stay?

Donnez-moi le monde un jour
Et tout ce qu’il faut pour
Ecrire une chanson
Donnez-moi des choses a dire
A ceux qui vont souffrir
Pendant que nous dansons

Too much lean, yeah, uh, too much ice, hold up (Woah)
One more pint, hold up, uh, one more pint, uh, yeah
Too much lean, yeah, uh, too much ice, huh, uh
One more pint, yeah, uh, one more pint, uh, yeah
One more pint, uh, yeah, one more pint, uh, yeah
One more pint, yeah, yeah, one more pint, yeah, yeah
Too much lean, uh, yeah, too much ice, hold up, yeah
One more pint, uh, yeah, one more pint

If you don’t wanna see me dancing with somebody
If you wanna believe that anything could stop me

Don’t show up, don’t come out
Don’t start caring about me now
Walk away, you know how
Don’t start caring about me now

They aren’t gonna help us
Too busy helping themselves
They aren’t gonna change this
We gotta do it ourselves
They think that it’s over
But it’s just begun

Only one thing can save us
Only the young (Only the young)
Only the young (Only the young)
Only the young (Only the young)
Only the young
Only the young (Only the young)
Only the young (Only the young)
Only the young (Only the young)
Only the young
Only the young (Only the young; Don’t say you’re too tired to fight)
Only the young (Only the young; It’s just a matter of time)
Only the young (Only the young; Up there’s the finish line)
Only the young
Can run

Straight off the plane to a new hotel
Just touched down, you could never tell
Big house party with a crowded kitchen
People talk shh but we don’t listen

Tell me that I’m wrong, but I do what I please
Way too many people in the Addison Lee
Now I’m at the age when I know what I need, oh whoa

Midnight memories, oh, oh, oh
Baby, you and me
Stumbling in the street
Singing, singing, singing, singing
Midnight memories, oh, oh, oh
Anywhere we go
Never say no
Just do it, do it, do it, do it

Black magic, black excellence
Black habits, this black medicine, everything
Black Chucks, black tux, everything, everything
Black hug, black love, everything
Praise black Jesus, play black Moses
Give ’em flowers while they still here, black roses, everything
Black tie, black ride, everything, everything
Black pride, black lives, everything (Ah-ah-ah)

Runner, I know you’re living with a wild hunger
Let me make the most of us
You know you’ll never be a runner
And leave me in a cloud of dust
Living in the same old sin
I feel it blowing in the wind
Like manna in the desert, oh
Gonna take a miracle

Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don’t see my face no more
I’m a provider, girl, gotta face the streets tonight
Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don’t see my face no more
I’m a rider, girl, gotta face the streets tonight

In this day and age and at this stage of the game
Mediocrity can no longer be allowed to fly

Did you realize
That you were a champion in their eyes?

Yes I did
So I packed it up and brought it back to the crib
Just a little something, show you how we live
Everybody want it but it ain’t that serious
Mhm, that’s that shit
So if you gon’ do it, do it just like this

When your legs don’t work like they used to before
And I can’t sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?
And darling, I will be loving you till we’re seventy
And baby, my heart could still fall as hard at twenty-three
And I’m thinking ’bout how

People fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well me, I fall in love with you every single day
I just wanna tell you I am

So honey, now, take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart, I’m thinking out loud
And maybe we found love right where we are

I’m with the gang, gang, gang, gang, BOYS hoppin’ out of coupes (Gang)
I’m switching’ lanes tryna maintain, duckin’ boys in the blue (Zoo)
I see you holdin’ out on my change, I’m needin’ all of the loot (Ching-ching)
When I’m ridin’ off on my side, best believe I got the scoop (Scoop)
I could make a hundred right now, give it all to the troops (Troops)
Whole squad got the juice (Yeah), send a stain like a flute (Yeah)
Whole squad goin’ up, JACKBOYS on the loose

Even if the sun goes down on you
You gotta keep that shine on top yeah
On top yeah
On top yeah
And even if the sun goes down on you
You gotta keep that shine on top yeah
On top yeah
On top yeah
I’m cruising, through the city
Had to get outside, it couldn’t get anymore pretty
I’m moving, who’s coming with me?
Swerving on my bike, making twenty feel like fifty
Man they miss me, aye, got the pedal moving swiftly
Vibe like sons and I had raise em strictly
Wishing, I could always stay this way, aye
Chilling by the bay, had to make me say that

I’m on my back again
Dreaming of a time and place
Where you and I remain the best of friends
Even after all this ends
Can we pretend?
I’m on my, I’m on my back again
It’s seeming more and more
Like all we ever do is see how far it bends
Before it breaks in half and then
We bend it back again

Who am I? (Trap Lord), ayy
Look at me, look at me now (Trap Lord)
Look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me now, ayy (Trap Lord), yeah
Look at me, look at me now (Trap Lord)
Look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me now

I be feeling like the king of my city

She want Celine, she want the Gucci
I ride with some hundreds on me, I got the blue cheese
Pull up in a Jeep, I put it on 4G

Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
I wanna fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
‘Till I’m free
Oh, Lord, through the revolution

He and she, two different people
With two separate lives
Then you put the two together
And get a spectacular surprise
Cause one can teach the other one
What she doesn’t know
While still the other fills a place inside
He never knew had room to grow
Grow grow

Let’s go crazy, crazy, crazy ’til we see the sun
I know we only met but let’s pretend it’s love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let’s get some and live while we’re young
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)
And live while we’re young
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Tonight let’s get some
And live while we’re young

Where are You now
When darkness seems to win
Where are You now
When the world is crumbling

Oh, I, I
I hear You say
I hear You say

Look up child
Look up child

I went from old school Chevys, to drop-top Porsches
You couldn’t walk a mile off in my Air Forces
And you ain’t seen what I’ve seen
I can get a hundred thousand in these Sean John jeans
I went from old school Chevys, to drop top Porsches
And you ain’t did what I did
If you from where I’m from you gotta get how you live

And in the end
The love you take
Is equal to the love you make

Look how time has changed
The cracks in our skin
Oh my friend
Let go of the fear that’s inside your head
So stay strong live on
And chase the midnight sun
When the ceiling falls and there’s no one watching
We can build again to more than what we
Once could dream
We’re bigger than we seem

Can’t take this anymore, got my head down on the floor
My brain is burning inside of my head
Can’t speak the word and my face is blue
And I wanna get back to the arms of you
Wanna get back
I gotta get back to my…

Speed home california
Speed home california
Speed home california
Speed home california

We got to keep the light burning
Come on, we got to keep the light burning
Come on, we got to keep the light burning
Come on, we got to keep the light burning
Come on and dream baby dream

You say “one for the treble, two for the time”
Come on, y’all, let’s rock this!
You say “one for the treble, two for the time”
Come on!
Speech is my hammer, bang the world into shape
Now let it fall, (huh!)
