Late 808

Yo, however do u want, however do you need P
My Mobb bring it back to life, back to reality
You walk a fine line playin wit mine, the greatest story ever told in rhyme
We climax in ninety-five, wit demo raw raps is knives
To skin all ya’ll cats alive
Take your time don’t rush the clock, Infamous rock for good now
Pass like my duns on lock holdin the pot down slow
But assuringly, spoon-feeding these
Starvin ass heads catchin shakes, feenishly
I ball in this, word assortin this, probably recording this
Of course kids keepin they sights upon this
Exclusiveness, like some new type of kicks
We got them things fixed, passed the wrong man in my click
You get charged wit intent to kick that bullshhh
Welcome to the ledge of this whole shhh

Yo, we the men for the operation
You know the M-O, B-B’s, warrior style, rare species
Catch us on your block , on your wide-screen tv’s
From Jones Beach to over-seas from over there
It’s right back to the beats, longevity so all the great-grandseeds eat

Ayo, just last week I told ’em they run done
My legacy could never be undone
I’m a prodigy, R.I.P Thun-Thun

I wish the couple on the corner would just get a room
Seems like everyone around me’s on their honeymoon
I’d love to take a pin to a heart-shaped balloon
Everybody’s got somebody but me

And I will do it for you, for you
Baby, I’m not moving on
I’ll love you long after you’re gone
For you, for you
You will never sleep alone
I’ll love you long after you’re gone
And long after you’re gone, gone, gone

Elevate, elevate
Only obligation is to tell it straight
Me and all the guys found a better way
This a life bid we can never separate
I’m in bed awake, thinkin’ how’d I make
All this happen for myself and my family
All this happen for myself and my family
There’s no way that this is real, man, it can’t be

I know where you stand
Silent in the trees
And that’s where I am
Silent in the trees
Why won’t you speak
Where I happen to be?
Silent in the trees
Standing cowardly

When Mama said that it was okay
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was okay
Mama told us we were good kids
And Daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
‘Cause we were good kids

She’s not your lover
She’s not your friend
Not like the others
She won’t pretend

15 there’s still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, there’s never a wish better than this
When you only got a hundred years to live

I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, so I can
Watch you weave then breathe your story lines
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, so I can
Keep track of the visions in my eyes

I don’t want to bother you
And there is no reason to rush

Take it all down, they gon’ feel it on the day
Take it all home and they feel it all the way

Trying to find the meaning of life in a Corona

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

I can’t understand what people are sayin’
어느 장단에 맞춰야 될지
한 발자국 떼면 한 발자국 커지는 shadow
잠에서 눈을 뜬 여긴 또 어디
어쩜 서울 또 New York or Paris
일어나니 휘청이는 몸

Do you slide on all your nights like this?
Do you try on all your nights like this? (I might)
Put some spotlight on the slide
Whatever comes, comes through clear
Do you slide on all your nights like this?
Do you try on all your nights like this? (I might)
Put some spotlight on the side
And whatever comes, comes through clear (Uh)

A mother’s love is forever
A mother’s love is for free
It doesn’t matter if you’re good or bad
She’s there for whatever you need
In the world of fantasy
Hold on to your dreams
Open up your heart and see
All the love you need is me

No role models and I’m here right now
No role models to speak of
Searchin’ through my memory, my memory, I couldn’t find one

She’s up all night to the sun, I’m up all night to get some
She’s up all night for good fun, I’m up all night to get lucky
We’re up all night to the sun, we’re up all night to get some
We’re up all night for good fun, we’re up all night to get lucky
We’re up all night to get lucky, we’re up all night to get lucky
We’re up all night to get lucky, we’re up all night to get lucky

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
