[Verse One] Yo, yo Lost generation, fast paced nation World population confront they frustration The principles of true hip-hop have been forsaken It's all contractual and about money makin Pretend-to-be cats don't seem to know they limitation Exact replication and false representation You wanna be a man, then stand your own To MC requires skills, I demand some shown I let the frauds keep frontin And roam like a celluar phone far from home Givin crowds what they wantin Offical hip-hop consumption, the 5th thumpin Keepin ya party jumpin with an original somethin Yo, I dedicate this to the one dimension-al No imagination, excuse for perpetration My man came over and said, "Yo we thought we heard you" Joke's on you; you heard a bitin-*** crew but um.. [Chorus: Raphael Saadiq] Never do....what they do, what they do, what they do... Never do....what they do, what they do, what they do... [Verse Two] Thin is the line that run between love and hatred The game is ill-natured, it's nothing sacred Aiyyo, it's funny when I see some rap niggaz due to make it A few'll blow up, or go as far as they can take it My nine to five, is just to hit ya get the party live I'm Black Thought, used to rap for sport Now the rhymes sayin rent payin life support I take it very serious-ly, within this in-dustry It's various crews that try to touch me But I come with the beautiful things, and I bless the track plushly Around the world crowds love me, from doin tours Recepient of applause from all of you and yours Creator of original sounds to send to stores you take home, to absorb and sweat it out your pores Now who can stop the music runnin through these veins Infinitely go against the grain, that's why my motto's to..

Alpha Blondy Posted September 26, 2011 One day perhaps we will come back to this country and bring our children, to show them you know And what we had to sacrifice to be in that country you know. But I think in the initial state that we had a lot of struggle. But with god’s grace and his kindness we are okay now and our children are okay as well I think… Dreams, dreams, dreams, dreams I can’t feel your dreams I can’t see you I can’t touch your memories But I can hear you I can’t feel your dreams, dreams I can’t see you I can’t touch your memories But I can hear you Words that fall like distant rain Words that echo with your eyes I can’t taste I can’t feel I can’t reach across a thousand years I can almost touch the soil beneath your whisper I can almost feel the hopes you left behind I can almost touch the soil beneath your whisper I can almost feel the hopes you left behind Words that fall like distant rain Words that echo with your eyes I can’t taste I can’t feel Thousand years I can’t hear you I can’t see you I can’t touch you I can’t reach you I can’t hear you I can’t see you Thousand years I can’t taste I can’t feel Thousand years I can’t taste I can’t feel I can’t reach across a thousand years I can’t taste I can’t feel I can’t reach across a thousand years I can’t taste I can’t feel Thousand years Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alpha Blondy Posted September 29, 2011 Out on the streets, where I grew up First thing they teach us, not to give a **** That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere Soooome-onnnne haaaas tooooo care [black Thought - singing] How I got over... where the people come apart Don't nobody care about cha, only thing you got is God Out here in these streets.. if you get down on your luck You can stand out, with a hand out But nobody give a **** Out here in these streets, every man is for himself They ain’t helpin noone else, it's a hazard to your health Livin life in these cold streets Hey, WHO'S worryin 'bout cha, babe? When you whylin out, runnin 'round in these streets [Chorus 2: Dice Raw (Black Thought)] Out on the streets, where I grew up (How I got over...) First thing they teach us, not to give a **** (How I got o-) That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere (How I got over...) Soooome-onnnne haaaas tooooo care [black Thought - rapping] Yo.. When you on the corners, there's too much drama Livin with the police right behind ya It's always more than a slight reminder We livin in a war zone like Rwanda Before I go back to the Heavenly Father Pray for me if it ain’t too much bother Whatever don't break me a-make me stronger I feel like I can't take too much longer It's too much lyin, and too much fightin I'm all cried out 'cause I grew up cryin They all got a sales pitch I ain't buyin They tryin to convince me that I ain't tryin We uninspired, we unadmired And tired and sick of being sick and tired of livin in the hood where the shots are fired We dyin to live, so to live, we dyin You just like I am [Chorus 3: Dice Raw (Black Thought)] Out on the streets, where I grew up (How I got over...) First thing they teach us, not to give a **** (How I got o-) That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere (Somebody, somewhere..) Soooome-onnnne haaaas tooooo care [black Thought - singing] Somebody's gotta care.. And I swear it isn't fair In suspended animation, we ain't tryin to go nowhere Out here in these streets.. We're so young and all alone We ain't even old enough, to realize we're on our own Livin life in these hard streets Where it's like they lost they mind Is there anyway to find? Are we runnin out of time out here? Listen... Hey, WHO'S worryin 'bout cha, babe? When you whylin out, runnin 'round in these streets Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Blondy Posted September 30, 2011 Living with you in my life Is like feeling the whole world’s on my side Putting a smile in the place Where a tear used to run down my face Feeling the sun on my head Where a cloud used to follow instead Singing a song in my heart In a place where all my troubles depart (chorus) If our dreams are falling down to the ground Let them fly Let the rain keep falling down Cause baby I’m high Now it will fly now that we’re together oh ho Love is so high stay this way forever Living with you in my life Is like feeling the whole world’s on my side Putting a smile in the place Where a tear used to run down my face (chorus) Our love…yeah! Love will be here forever I know that we’ll stay together Our love will be here forever I hope that we’ll stay together Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alpha Blondy Posted October 2, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZXgsT96QMI (Chorus) I lied, I said you were the truth You took it as the truth And now I got you But I don't want you like that... There only lives one love And of that you can't compare to And that's the bare-naked truth. You knew, and I knew But you didn't want to hear, What I didn't want to tell you Now we've got hard times And now there's no love at home When separate we feel so alone But we can't stand to be --Together, to talk about it We had time to I.N.C Our thoughts instead of our bodies This can't be love What if we, produced a shorty Would hard times, still be visible? Within this love, within our love, This can't be love And that's the barenaked.. (Chorus) I lied, I said you were the truth You took it as the truth And now I got you But I don't want you like that... There only lives one love And of that you can't compare to And that's the bare-naked truth. I said you were the truth You took it as the tru-u-uth We can't stand to be Together, to talk about it But we can't stand to be... Apart long enough to heal this thing baby You and I started off good Finding time to spend time I said what you wanted to hear Now you need to know that... (Chorus) I lied, I said you were the truth You took it as the truth And now I got you But I don't want you like that... There only lives one love And of that you can't compare to And that's the bare-naked truth. If our words were truly fact We probably still wouldn't have love But we would love what we had But we don't, reality is we lied Now you and I must say goodbye Can't you see the bare-naked start to speak I'm a young man, the world is mine I should've been, straight with you from the beginning You probably wasn't even looking for a man This time has been no doubt interesting But now that we broke up I'm thinkin this might have been love This could've been love... It's just my luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
