Starting Over
Starting Over
Those 3 plus years, I was so proud of And I threw ‘em all away for 2 Styrofoam cups The irony, everyone will think that he lied to me Made my sobriety so public, there’s no fuckin’ privacy If I don’t talk about it then I carry a date 08-10-08, but now it’s been changed in every.. When they put me in some box as a saint I never was, it’s the false prophet that never came And well they think that everything that I written has all been fake Oh well I’ll just take my slip to the grave Uh, what the fuck are my parents gonna say? The success story that got his life together and changed And you know what pain looks like When you tell your dad you relapsed then look him directly into his face The seat on your shoulder’s the seemingly heavy weight I’ve been seeing tears like this on my girl In a while the trust that I once built’s been betrayed But I’d rather live telling the truth than be judged for my mistakes The falsely held up, given props, loved and praised I guess I gotta get this on the page Feeling sick and helpless, lost the compass where self is I know what I gotta do and I can’t help it One day at a time is what they tell us Now I gotta find a way to tell them God help ‘em One day at a time is what they tell us Now I gotta find a way to tell them We fell so hard Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost.. I thought you’d go But you were with me all along.. along.. And every kid that came up to me And said I was the music they listened to when they first got clean Now look at me, a couple days sober I’m fighting demons Back of that meeting on the east side Shaking tweakin', hope that they don’t see it Hope that no one is looking That no one recognizes that failure under that hoodie Was posted in the back with my hands crossed shooken If they call on me I’m passing, if they talk to me I’m booking out that door But before I can make it somebody stops me and says are you Macklemore? Maybe this isn’t the place or time I just wanted to say that if it wasn’t for other side I wouldn’t have made it I just look down at the ground and say thank you She tells me she has 9 months and that she’s so grateful Tears in her eyes, looking like she’s gonna cry.. fuck! I barely got 48 hours, treated like I’m some wise monk I wanna tell her I relapsed but I can’t I just shake her hand and tell her congrats Get back to my car and I think I’m tripping yea Cause God wrote Otherside, that pen was in my hand I’m just a flawed man, man I fucked up up Like so many others I just never thought I would I never thought I would, didn’t pick up the book Doin’ it by myself, didn’t turn out that good If I can be an example of getting sober Then I can be an example of starting over If I can be an example of getting sober Then I can be an example of starting over We fell so hard Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost.. I thought you'd go But you were with me all along.. along.. We fell so hard Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost..

[Interlude] I need love You need love Give me love And I'll give you my love [Verse 1] They say thirty is the new twenty And twenty is the new thirty shit I guess Makes sense, cause fifteen year olds seem twenty And twenty five year olds seem ten I used to drink away my paycheck Celebrate the mistakes I hadn't made yet Our generation isn't the best on safe sex We forget the latex, becoming Planned Parenthood patients Synthetic heroin is the new basshead So much to escape, fuck a straight edge Walk around looking through a fake lens Apps this good, whose got time to make friends? I wish I didn't care Acynical hispters with long hair Cocaine problems, like my music It's not my issue, I can't solve it [Hook] My flight has finally landed down And the ground has stopped moving all around Eyes open, awake for the very first time We both forfeit this game of crime [Verse 2] They say it's so refreshing to hear somebody on records No guns, no drugs, no sex, just truth The guns that's America, the drugs are what they gave to us And sex sells itself, don't judge her 'til it's you Ah, I'm not more or less cautious The rappers rappin' 'bout them strippers up on the pole, copping These interviews are obnoxious Saying that it's poetry is so well spoken, stop it I grew up during Reaganomics When Ice T was out there on his killing cops shit Or Rodney King was getting beat on And they let off every single officer And Los Angeles went and lost it Now every month there is a new Rodney on Youtube It's just something our generation is used to And neighbourhoods where you never see a news crew Unless they're gentrifying, white people don't even cruise through And my subconcious telling me stop it This is an issue that you shouldn't get involved in Don't even tweet, R.I.P Trayvon Martin Don't wanna be that white dude, million man marchin' Fighting for our freedom that my people stole Don't wanna make all my white fans uncomfortable But you don't even have a fuckin' song for radio Why you out here talkin race, tryin' to save the fuckin' globe Don't get involved with the causes in mind White privilege, white guilt, at the same damn time So we just party like it's nineteen ninty nine Celebrate the ignorance while these kids keep dying [Hook + Interlude]

I put my life on the line I roll them dice and I'm fine Cause all I ever dreamt about was makin' it They ain't giving it, I'm taking it I’m taking it, taking it, I ain’t giving it I’m taking it, taking it, I ain’t giving it I’m taking it, taking it, I ain’t giving it I’m taking it, taking it, I need all that shit If I just went in this slowly the police wouldn't notice Gotta be strategic, creepin, go in, leave with that motive Hold up, my plan is forming, alright, case in this building Watch these rappers that rappin' walk in and leave out with millions Cut in and sway there, open that front door And it’s gold printed out right by the entrance door closes Then a metaphor, then I start towards That front, that’s right, where you check in Dressed in an uniform, acting like a janitor All blue, jumpsuit, why shoot? Bloodthirsty for the money like a bull Looking in the eyes of the matador (fuck you!) Carrying 2 cans of paint, Security looks at me awkward I say third floor I’m late, Paintin' Jimmy Iovine's office Holding my breath ‘bout to faint I’m scared to death of that he stops me Heart beating so loud you can hear the echo in that lobby And see I'm breaking down if I don’t make it out Then I’m leaving town with that contract And I’m spazzing out, cover the in or out Loose chair and I’m taking him hostage I don’t give a fuck, step into the elevator press stream Now I’m headed up (Heist!) What they don't know is there is a gun and a paint can And I’m ready and willing to bust ‘em, I'm fucking desperate Stuck in this recession not what you think But if I could get signed my life is destined My future depends on ink And secretary at the front of the entrance staring right at me I walk up she whispers go ahead and then gives me a wink I put my life on the line I roll them dice and I'm fine Cause all I ever dreamt about was makin' it They ain't giving it, I'm taking it I’m taking it, taking it, I ain’t giving it I’m taking it, taking it, I ain’t giving it I’m taking it, taking it, I ain’t giving it I’m taking it, taking it, I need all that shit If I get past security, the secretary, the cubicals But it’s weird, it’s like this room I’ve walked into is unusual Thought it would be shiny and beautiful Thought it would be alive and like musical But it feels like someone died, it’s got the vibe of a funeral There’s numbers on a chalkboard CDs boxed in cardboard Artists that flopped, that got dropped and never got to be sophomores Graphic designers are sitting around Waiting for albums that never come out Complainin’ that they have nobody in house Wonderin’ what they make art for I start thinking, am I in the right place? Just walk forward, see plaques on the wall Oh yea, in a second those will be all yours Finally see an office with a mounted sign, heaven sent Big block silver letters, read it out loud: President (nice!) This was my chance to grab that contract and turn and jet Right then felt a cold hand grab on the back of my neck He said: we’ve been watching you, so glad you could make it Your music gets so impressive in this whole brand you created You're one hell of a band, we here think you’re destined for greatness And with that right song we all know that you’re next to be famous Now I’m sorry, I’ve had a long day remind me, now what your name is? That’s right, Macklemore, of course, today has been crazy Anyway, you ready? We’ll give you a hundred thousand dollars After your album comes out we’ll need back that money that you borrowed So it’s really like a loan, a loan? Come on, no We're a team, 360 degrees, we will reach your goals! You’ll get a third of the merch that you sell out on the road Along with a third of the money you make when you’re out doing your shows Manager gets 20, booking agent gets 10 So shit, after taxes you and Ryan have 7% to split That’s not bad, I’ve seen a lot worse, No one will give you a better offer than us (mm-hm) I replied I appreciate the offer, thought that this is what I wanted Rather be a starving artist than succeed at getting fucked

Neon Cathedral
Aha Uhm 1-2 [Verse 1: Macklemore] Round here they sing broken hymns Their prayers flow better when they're soaked in gin The amp's dusty and sits in the corner By a bartender that'll pickpocket your heart And a jukebox that'll steal your quarter Bartender, please give me a confession Exchange fear for courage in the form of a well drink There's a heavy current, got a long way to swim Closed the Bible a while ago, I need some shots for this sin Hail Mary, come with me, feel like Pac when it hits Got some fire in my belly and a riot in the gut Bushmills for a band-aid, the sweet taste of blood Then I might actually feel something if I don't cover it up Watch their faces, familiar places Even if they haven't left the vinyl booth that they stayed in The motel next door, a sign that reads vacant And a truth that's so strong I'd be a fool not to chase it But yet, I'm a fool and I stay here Hope these problems drown themselves, I die in wait here One more, four more, fuck it a night cap Service starts at 5 tomorrow and I'll be right back [Hook: Allen Stone] Underneath this fragile frame Lives a battle between pride and shame But I've misplaced that sense of fright This crown of thorns is perched atop my spine But listen closely as I testify Dependency has been a thief at night Thief at night, thief at night [Verse 2: Macklemore] I read the Bible, but I forgot the verses The liquor store is open later than the church is Pured by their imperfections, everything that's burning To Hell with the confessions, all the "Lord Have Mercy's" Blessed in holy water, listen, oh Holy Father Have you ever smelled flesh that sweats out Monarch vodka? 11 AM in the morning and you can't get it off ya Callin' to the preacher but it's like the pastor isn't talking Until the store opens I can re-up on that doctrine The people close to me say that I'm in need of a doctor Think that I got a problem but these are not apostles This is the drink of the Lord, that's according to my gospel Open to interpretation, if you're judgin' I don't want it I got sins that scold like my throat when I hit the bottle And I'm sinking and that's why I keep on drinking I need a refill, far more than once every weekend Sweet Jesus, I'm getting amnesia Shaking til I get a taste, my faith is having seizures Every time I walk away and try to leave it Every time I walk away and try to leave it [Bridge: Macklemore] Wouldn't miss it for the world Baptized in my vices and the bar is my church Traded my artist and I pawned off the easel Spend it all searching for God at the Neon Cathedral [Bridge: Macklemore] Wouldn't miss it for the world Baptized my vices and the bar is my church Traded my artist and I pawned off the easel Spend it all searching for God, Neon Cathedral Neon Cathedral [Hook: Allen Stone] Underneath this fragile frame Lives a battle between pride and shame But I've misplaced that sense of fight This crown of thorns is perched atop my spine But listen closely as I testify Dependency has been a thief at night Thief at night, thief at night Dependency has been a thief at night Thief at night, thief at night Dependency has been a thief at night Thief at night, thief at night

Make The Money
Make The Money
[Verse 1] Now, this is my job, I will not quit it Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance That's just the work, regardless of who's listening, listening Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious Classroom of kids, or a venue performing If I'd done it for the money I'd have been a fucking lawyer Concrete, vagabond, van telling stories Humbled by the road, I'm realizing I'm not important See life's a beautiful struggle, I record it Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and That's why we stay in the lab at night I've been staring into this pad for over half my life A true artist won't be satisfied So I guess that's the sacrifice And I say [Hook] Make the money, don't let the money make you Change the game, don't let the game change you I'll forever remain faithful All my people stay true, I say Make the money, don't let the money make you Change the game, don't let the game change you I'll forever remain faithful All my people stay true [Verse 2] Forget about the fame, fortune and the mansion Sitting and tripping watching myself on a plasma Yeah, I start slipping when I'm thinking about that stuff Ego won't swole until karma catches that up, that up I'm my grandma's number one grandson I lost myself to remember who that was We start thinking about some kicks, necklace What I really need is a job off CraigsList Take away the dot com, name, love Fans, Twitter followers, and the buzz See, you keep the issues but you take away the drugs And I had to find out who I really was Who I really wasn't So sick of who I was becoming Yeah, tired of running Time to look at the man in the mirror until I can learn to love him [Hook] [Bridge x2] Of course I want dubs and a candy painted 'lac Watch the videos and get the girls in the back But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track [Hook] Forget about the fame I said forget about the fame I'll forever remain faithful Stay true, stay true, stay true

Ten Thousand Hours
Ten Thousand Hours
Uh I hope that God decides to talk through him That the people decide to walk with him Regardless of pitchfork cosigns I've jumped Make sure the soundman doesn't cockblock the drums Let the snare knock the air right out of your lungs And those words be the oxygen Just breathe Hey man, regardless I'm a say it Felt like I got signed the day that I got an agent Got an itunes check, shit man I'm paying rent About damn time that I got out of my basement About damn time I got around the country and I hit these stages I was made to slay them Ten thousand hours I'm so damn close I can taste it On some Malcolm Gladwell, David Bowie meets Kanye shit This is dedication A life lived for art is never a life wasted Ten thousand Ten thousand hours felt like ten thousand ants Ten thousands ants, they carry me Ten thousand hours felt like ten thousand ants Ten thousands ants, they carry me Now, now, now This is my world, this is my arena The TV told me something different I didn't believe it I stand here in front of you today all because of an idea I could be who I wanted if I could see my potential And I know that one day I'm a be him Put the gloves on, sparring with my ego Everyone's greatest obstacle, I beat 'em Celebrate that achievement Got some attachments, some baggage I'm actually working on leaving See, I observed Escher I love Basquiat I watched Keith Haring You see I study art The greats weren't great because at birth they could paint The greats were great cause they paint a lot I will not be a statistic Just let me be No child left behind, that's the american scheme I make my living off of words And do what I love for work And got around 980 on my SATs Take that system, what did you expect? Generation of kids choosing love over a desk Put those hours in and look at what you get Nothing that you can hold, but everything that it is Ten thousand Ten thousand hours felt like ten thousand hands Ten thousands hands, they carry me Ten thousand hours felt like ten thousand hands Ten thousands hands, they carry me Same shit, different day, same struggle Slow motion as time slips through my knuckles Nothing beautiful about it, no light at the tunnel For the people that put the passion before them being comfortable Raw, unmedicated heart no substitute Banging on table tops, no subs to toot I'm feeling better than ever man, what is up with you? Scraping my knuckles, I'm battling with some drug abuse I lost another friend, got another call from a sister And I speak for the people that share that struggle too Like they got something bruised My only rehabilitation was the sweat, tears and blood when up in the booth... It's the part of the show Where it all fades away When the lights go to black And the band leaves the stage And you wanted an encore But there's no encore today Cause the moment is now Can't get it back from the grave Part of the show It all fades away Lights go to black Band leaves the stage You wanted an encore But there's no encore today Cause the moment is now Can't get it back from the grave Welcome to the heist Welcome to the heist...

A Mano A Mano
A Mano A Mano
A mano a mano t'accorgi che il vento Ti soffia sul viso e ti ruba un sorriso La bella stagione che sta per finire Ti soffia sul cuore e ti ruba l'amore A mano a mano si scioglie nel pianto Quel dolce ricordo sbiadito dal tempo Di quando vivevi con me in una stanza Non c'erano soldi ma tanta speranza E a mano a mano mi perdi e ti perdo E quello che è stato ci sembra più assurdo Di quando la notte eri sempre più vera E non come adesso nei sabato sera.... Ma...dammi la mano e torna vicino Può nascere un fiore nel nostro giardino Che neanche l'inverno potrà mai gelare Può crescere un fiore da questo mio amore per te E a mano a mano vedrai che nel tempo Lì sopra il tuo viso lo stesso sorriso Che il vento crudele ci aveva rubato Che torna fedele L'amore è tornato da te.... Che il vento crudele ci aveva rubato L'amore è tornato da te....

Garota De Ipanema
Olha que coisa mais linda Mais cheia de graça É ela menina Que vem e que passa Num doce balanço, Caminho do mar Moça do corpo dourado Do sol de Ipanema O seu balançado E' mais que um poema É a coisa mais linda Que eu já vi passar Ah, porque estou tão sozinho Ah, porque tudo é tão triste Ah, a beleza que existe A beleza que não é só minha Que também passa sozinha Ah, se ela soubesse Que quando ela passa O mundo sorrindo Se enche de graça E fica mais linda Por causa do amor, Por causa do amor, Por causa do amor.
Love In Portofino
Love In Portofino
I found my love in Portofino perché nei sogni credo ancor lo strano gioco del destino a Portofino m' ha preso il cuor. Nel dolce incanto del mattino il mare ti ha portato a me. Socchiudo gli occhi a me vicino a Portofino rivedo te. Ricordo un angolo di cielo dove ti stavo ad aspettar ricordo il volto tanto amato e la tua bocca da baciar. I found my love in Portofino quei baci più non scorderò non è più triste il mio cammino a Portofino I found my love. Ricordo un angolo di cielo dove ti stavo ad aspettar ricordo il volto tanto amato e la tua bocca da baciar.

Se il corpo tuo non fosse così bello La pelle così fresca e delicata Che febbre di passione e di rovello Provoca in me da che l'ho apprezzata Se insomma tu non fossi come sei Più di quello che t'amo t'amerei. Tristeza Por favor vai embora Minha alma que chora Està vendo o meu film Fez do meu coraçao a sua moradia Jà è demais o meu penar Quero voltar aquela vida de alegria Quero de novo cantar.

Era Già Tutto Previsto
Era Già Tutto Previsto
Era già tutto previsto fin da quando tu ballando mi hai baciato di nascosto mentre lui che non guardava agli amici raccontava delle cose che sai dire delle cose che sai fare nei momenti dell'amore mentre ti stringevo forte e tu mi dicevi piano Era già tutto previsto fino al punto che sapevo che oggi tu mi avresti detto quelle cose che mi dici che non siamo più felici che io sono troppo buono che per te ci vuole un uomo che ti sappia soddisfare che non ti basta solo dare che vorresti anche avere nell'amore ma quale amore. Era già tutto previsto anche l'uomo che sceglievi e il sorriso che gli fai mentre ti sta portando via ho previsto che sarei restato solo in casa mia e mi butto sopra il letto e mi abbraccio al tuo cuscino non ho saputo prevedere solo che però adesso io vorrei morire.

Champagne
Champagne
Champagne per brindare a un incontro con te che già eri di un altro. Ricordi c'era stato un invito stasera si va tutti a casa mia. Così cominciava la festa e già ti girava la testa per me non contavano gli altri seguivo con lo sguardo solo te. Se vuoi,ti accompagno se vuoi la scusa più banale per rimanere soli io e te e poi gettare via i perché amarti come sei la prima volta, l'ultima. Champagne per un dolce segreto per noi un amore proibito ormai resta solo un bicchiere ed un ricordo da gettare via. Lo so, mi guardate lo so mi sembra una pazzia brindare solo, senza compagnia ma io, io devo festeggiare la fine di un amore. Cameriere, champagne.…

Skeletons
Skeletons
[Verse 1: Joell Ortiz] I look over my shoulder not knowing where it's coming from But knowing that it's coming, I was bugging as a youngin' Now I'm runnin from, somethin' that'll even out my dumb decisions The night I shot and had him bleedin' out his lungs and spittin' Do any sins go unforgiven? I hope not Cause most of mine were hunger driven, nothing in my mother's kitchen, Stomach sounds like the clouds ignited and the thunder hitting So the well-schooled kid ended up with more than a couple missin' So not a chef but the cocaine forever cookin' I love kids but now I' selling to a pregnant woman Stumbling through the projects in the AM with a cup in my hand, Gun on my waist and, "I don't give a fuck" is my plan You'll never understand my palm sweat Followed by shortness of breath then my heart jets and I ain't find a calm yet Go on let shorty sin Cause ain't no way in hell this ain't Joell, that's brave enough to tell you everything [Hook:] I got some skeletons locked in the closet (yeah, yeah) And I've been dyin', dyin' just to find an outlet And I'm hoping that no one finds out about it (yeah, yeah) Wishing maybe it'll disappear but I doubt it I doubt it [Verse 2: Crooked I] Fuck all that rapping, I'm a let the conversation rock I got skeletons in my closet The living dead live in a nigga head, behind a combination lock When will the occupation stop it? Make it a vacant lot The black mamba when I crack vodka, I'm a take a shot And Hope the stowaways go away before the anchor drop Yeah thanks a lot, I'm a bottle drinkin' nutcase Cover of XXL behind Em, I had the drunk face I steadily dream about cleanin' these demons out In order to clean them out, you gotta scream and shout All of your secrets out loud It started as a kid at my school desk Aced every quiz but I wanted to pass the cool test Ain't nothing cool about school shopping at the thrift store And living in an abandoned station wagon cause you was piss poor So I started stealing all of the clothes that the other kids wore That's when the skeletons moved into my mind on the sixth floor And more came through Crooked I's youth I slowly started moving them out the closet to this mic booth For real, bro [Hook] [Bridge:] I thought I had it all locked away till forever But no memories fade away, They seem to stay Comfortable in my conscience you live in my dreams They say time heals it all then whys the pain still with me? [Verse 3: Joe Budden] See the problem is, I know it all Or maybe the problem is that I just show it all Maybe they that thinking I should be ashamed of my actions but really there's no remorse Maybe the lord will decide that I suffered enough and let me live with no withdrawals Then again all it would mean is he deemed I'm much too important to focus all We could talk about pain 24/7 dog, that's my department Intercity blues cruise and I'm blasting that Marvin Skeletons ain't in my closet, that's my apartment And they like to hide behind thousand dollar fabrics and garments It's all bleak to me Tell my Pop I ain't bothered when he don't speak to me, I love you but it's weak to me On one hand life is short and there's no excuse to do it But you was missing half my life dog, I'm kind of used to it Modern day Son of Sam, judge but you don't understand Me against the world, I plan on winning, know I'm on demand Want to see through the eyes of a monster? Look through my glasses tint My roommates can stay here, just take care of half the rent [Hook]
All In My Head
All In My Head
[Intro] Quarter on the loose Loose quarter Few questions I ask myself [Verse 1] Maybe it started with Slaughterhouse, or was it tour life? Maybe it wouldn’t had started at all if I had your life Maybe it was needed or I was thinking immorally If I wasn’t myself could I say I gave the fans All of Me? Can’t decide if I’m more ashamed of what this all mean Than I am of ignoring all the lessons that was taught to me Headed up field but couldn’t dodge the last tackler High to the floor we thinkin moves her ass backwards How could I do with no regrets at all, willing to bet it all Not realize that quicker demise, how could I neglect it all? I’m so seasonal, some of you knew what to bring back With a heart this cold, how’d ya’ll think I’d be receptive to fall I’m plenty comfortable when danger’s around And even more so when strangers around In a bigger picture, was sicker down on my triggers And all the alarm enforcers Down to a nigga, that I’m about for drugs and liquor or the harm it causes Life and death, I tried to lynch myself Thought I could keep it all a secret, I convinced myself But really the folk that loved me, they could tell I was loakin I couldn’t see him, cry me a river cuz it fell in the ocean Numb to my words now, maybe felt it was open I cut so many people who was through, I need help with devotion That’s just some of the things I ask my Lord the savior And when He calls to me, well He have done us all a favor [Hook] How did I make it here? Who I are? I feel so lost Now I’m not seeing it clear Is it my fault? Is it my fault? It’s all in my head [Verse 2] I’m looking around like this can’t be happening Round of applause for the angry rappers Lord my girl cried me a flood then me a river That’s love depending on me when I’m a dependent on liquor I’m up in the shoe store, she got no love to show You ever look at a bitch she was fucking behind your bitch back like fuck I was fuckin you for, come on I’m an artist so I’m intelligent I would tell you to do some soul searchin But it’s hangin up in my closet with your skeleton That’s gotta be a god's work, even a diamond gotta be polished first The quarter is on the loose and I ain’t been out here getting my dollars’ worth I had to remove the goggles first To see through the sippin patrone and 50 phonies fool I need to go get me a kidney doner Guru, Nate Dogg, go head blink your eye Your doctor told me you close, go ahead drink and die Buried under the stone where the patrone 5th sits by That reads hella somebody who never wanted to be this guy [Hook] [Verse 3] They say knowledge is power, great cuz every day I learn As of late been having revelations bout this hate turn Hate the way they judge me, 2 I got the case adjourned Hated the belly of the beast to I became its tapeworm When I said I’d stop getting high tried to say it’s done No, I’m the type to walk through the fire to check the way it burn They say my brain is off, I say how can it be? If I’m out my mind how can I be in sanity? The people used to say that I was scared of progress They don’t know how hard a nigga tried to advance But I don’t know who’s more to blame Is it them for really not knowing me Or is it me for never really giving them a chance? Get too close, be too big of a threat Now it’s been little than no time Thinking why I ain’t get rid of you yet Gotta recognize my maturity Gotta see I’m grown Letting my skeletons out the closet just so I never be alone Since I got trust issues I won’t discuss with you Besides God tell me who the fuck’s supposed to save you Pop one, have one man to man, what’s going after the light’s out? Somewhere in his head probly feel it in his place too Plus more people will see me soon I mean I’ll be on national TV soon So when I ask if people I have around are cancer for me That’s 4 million more that might be able to answer for me Joe [Hook]

Castles
Castles
[Verse 1:] My castle started shrinking, something's gotta give Ended up being the smallest place that I had ever lived One of the reasons I would do away with fame, to say the least Don't know who these people are, their names ain't on the lease It's a different type of monster, entertainment is a beast Was supposed to eat together, then I became the main feast If you preying on my kindness, taking advantage of Joe's cool I'd have to ask, what's your definition of soul food? I bust my ass for my whole life, and I worked hard for my profit And envy I know cuts like a knife, so you probably work hard to stop it If you know me like you claim then how could you disregard my logic? You know I cut my arm short and put my heart in my pocket A pretty good judge of character, maybe I mistaked a few Cut some people off, but had no choice, it's what they made me do Why would you take advantage when it's something I'd have gave to you? And in the long run, it doesn't take from me, it takes from you You'll probably tell me I'm a fucked up nigga You got it wrong, I just won't be fucked up with you Which forces me get distant, and I never want to act a way with you But passion and desire never blends with lackadaisical No longer enable you, that's no longer favorable But pride is on your sleeve so you'll just act like nothing phases you Which can never equal good, in fact So love can't be lost, I know exactly where I put it at [Interlude:] Word. Got no problem with nobody though So have no problem with me. Figured No beef, no malice. I got no vendetta with y'all So I only want better for myself Might even want better for y'all [Verse 2:] My castle started shrinking, I tried my best to fight it Don't know how it happened, don't know how they got invited Was good with cabin fever, and maybe that helped create the space Fuck your good intentions, more concerned with what's taking place But everyone feels entitled, made up their mind they got a right to My peers transforming right before my eyes into my rivals Y'all can have the cars, ya'll can have the clothes, take all that shit that I don't love I'm learning fast that recognition is it's own drug And what's worse than some of your actions being feminine Is I got no way of knowing if your moves are really genuine You there when it's right, better be there when it's dark You wasn't there for the ride, don't be there when I park Figure I love niggas enough to let the world come and stay with me And I'll stay trapped in this room to keep ya'll away from me What's supposed to happen when I'm not hot anymore? Your job rely on me being crazy, but what if I'm not anymore? The funny shit, them molly's were cool when we all were doing em But nobody recalled when I was the only one they were ruining I learned a long time ago in life that not much is fair So No Love Lost, but not much is there Deja vu, this happened rapidly before Everyday's a constant struggle and you're a casualty of war Which could only equal good, in fact So love isn't lost, I know exactly where I put it at

Let Me Love It Out Of You
Let Me Love It Out Of You
I know you're mad, And I'm to blame for that. Yes, I'm sorry again, For the things I did, the words I said, If I could I'd take it back. Why waste the wine in this glass, The love in this room, To making up, girl We're so good at that. Come on over, sit back down by me, Let me have it, take it out on me, Don't hold back, take your time, Until you forgive me. Turn down the lights, lock the door, Leave out leavin' on the floor, I know you're angry inside, Let me love it out of you tonight. I see that smile, You're tryin' so hard to have. Who you're tryin' to fool? I know your game, I know you girl, Damn you're sexy when you're playin' it cool. Why waste the wine in this glass, The love in this room, To making up, girl We're so good at that. Come on over, sit back down by me, Let me have it, take it out on me, Don't hold back, take your time, Until you forgive me. Turn down the lights, lock the door, Leave out leavin' on the floor, I know you're angry inside, Let me love it out of you tonight. Why waste the wine in this glass, The love in this room, To making up, girl We're so good at that. Come on over, sit back down by me, Let me have it, take it out on me, Don't hold back, take your time, Until you forgive me. Turn down the lights, lock the door, Leave out leavin' on the floor, I know you're angry inside, Let me love it out of you tonight. Let me have it, let me have it, take your time. Let me lay you down and hold you close, And tell you how much I need you. Let me have it, let me have it.
Tinted Windows
Tinted Windows
I had tinted windows on my first car, We used to park out by the reservoir. We had the water, radio and the stars, Never had to worry our friends would come knocking on those Tinted windows covered in steam, Floorboard piled up with t-shirts and jeans. You didn't know what you were doing to me, But I was so gone baby, I was so gone for you. Oh, it doesn't seem like it could really be, So long ago when we were seventeen, So long ago it feels just like a dream when it was you and me and Tinted windows and six-pack of light, I know I didn't pop the question right, But that diamond looked good in the dashboard light And you said, "Yes, you know the answer is Yes" Oh, it doesn't seem like it could really be, So long ago when we were seventeen, So long ago it feels just like a dream when it was you and me and Tinted windows... We sold that car back in '97 Should have got 15, but we only got 11 We grew up and we grew apart The years rolled by and now your eyes are Tinted windows and I wanna believe Somewhere inside you're still in love with me I keep looking, hoping to see it through those Tinted windows, all those tinted windows Tinted windows, those tinted windows Tinted windows Tinted windows
Book Of John
Book Of John
We were sittin' round the supper table and the buzz of the frigidaire Was the only sound 'til momma laid down, a book she found upstairs It was covered in dust in the back of the closet, Goodwill box we almost tossed it out We could have lost all those memories There was a picture of mama in the pouring rain Ticket stubs to a Braves game Silver star and a baggage claim from Hanoi, Vietnam There was a picture of him callin' on grandpa Leather skin from a baseball We laughed and cried, told stories all night long From the book of John Now the pot of coffee's almost gone, as we turn another page We're climbing on him like a Jungle Jim, watching his hair turn gray All the Polaroids are just reminders, You can't hold life in a three ring binder We flipped on through 'em anyway There's a picture at his sister taken in July On the steps of the church pulling out his tie Hair's still wet from gettin' baptized, the brand new blue suit on An old set of keys to his Chevrolet A crumpled up receipt for a wedding ring We watched ourselves grow up there in his arms In the book of John That sun came up, we were wide awake Head to toe in black and gray Long black Lincoln waiting down the drive He was father, son, husband and friend I still flip through it every now and then When I need just a few words of advice It's almost like he's not really gone And I know one day I'll be passin' on The book of John

Now I ain't sayin' them LA ladies don't know what they're doin' And I been in love with New York City a time or two I had some Seattle coffee, some Chicago wind Some Kansas sweet fields I'd love to see again But the fireflies play where the cattails grow And them southern girls, they talk nice and slow with Kisses sweeter than Tupelo honey Little bit crazy like New Orleans Memphis blue and Daytona sunny Soft as cotton in some cut-off jeans Don't you know, Ain't nothing in the whole wide world Like a southern girl (Southern girl rock my world Hazel eyes and golden curls Put on a country song We'll dance all night long) A southern girl's mama probably taught her how a lady should act But a southern girl's probably got a barn somewhere reared out back She'll get a little hay in her hair, her tires in the mud She's been caught in the rain, and washed in the blood Likes cherries in her coke, takes a little sip, Comes over to me with them sunburned lips and them Kisses sweeter than Tupelo honey Little bit crazy like New Orleans Memphis blue and Daytona sunny Soft as cotton in some cut-off jeans Don't you know, Ain't nothing in the whole wide world Like a southern girl (Southern girl rock my world Hazel eyes and golden curls Put on a country song We'll dance all night long) If you've ever seen Savannah heat up when the stars come out Well, then, fellas, come on, you know what I'm talkin' about Kisses sweeter than Tupelo honey Little bit crazy like New Orleans Memphis blue and Daytona sunny Soft as cotton in some cut-off jeans Don't you know, Ain't nothing in the whole wide world Like a southern girl (Southern girl rock my world Put on a country song [Repeat 'til the end:] (Southern girl rock my world Hazel eyes and golden curls Put on a country song We'll dance all night long)
