Love to Turn You On Lyrics
(David Derrick, Jared Tuten, Kyle Ellison, Sims Ellison, Michael Dan Ehmig) This is a letter to myself Painted picture, cry for help It feels like I am now alone I can't call you on the phone [CHORUS] If I could reach into your heart, I'd tear your world apart It kind of broke inside of me You gotta see it to believe--the world is crashin' on me I've seen emotion to the end It's always hard when you lose a friend I don't quite know what words to say Whispered nothings fade away [CHORUS] Was it written in blood, written in pain Written in love or written in vain Is it writt

[Talib Kweli]
Yeah, Kweli
Ye-ye-ye-ye-ye yeah get back
Classic Brooklyn, let's go
We sell crack to our own, nigga I'm back in the zone
My passionate poems got the feds tappin my phones
It's like Timothy McVeigh, they say I'm actin alone
I got a whole team that'll put a gat to your dome
To get by, just to get by, just to get by, just to get by
Yo this remix is hot, we only dealin with the live hip hop
Yo get by, get back nigga (Roc)
[Jay-Z]
Just to get by
Nigga I sold coke, nigga I pushed lah
Carried a fo'five
Claimed I was ready to die
Promised never to cry
Held it all inside
Reality was too much to take so I
Kept my mind fly
Slimmed for most of mine
Soon as I closed my eyes
Then I woke up behind
Nigga either I throw it up, these nines
Or blow up with rhymes
The best flow of mines is like blow up on lines of coke up
And your folks think Hov' just wrote stuff to rhyme
Nah, I'ma poster for what happened seein your moms
Doin five dollars worth to work just to get a dime
So pardon my disposition
Why should I listen to a system that never listened to me?
Picture me working McDonald's (uh uh)
I'd rather pull a
Trust And Betrayal Lyrics
Some time has past the winter is here Dark memories haunt me My vision is not clear But my focus is crystal Cause my wounds are bleeding still You hurt me forever How could I ever have thought that you would The only two that I trusted Why the hell should I forgive You left me to winter And god damn this loneliness [Solo: Englund] My sadness you'll see This sorrow ends in victory My trust your betrayal I stab away my sorrows It all ends here my sight now clear A new day begins tomorrow A brighter season is here The sun c
mac on youSome time has past the winter is here Dark memories haunt me My vision is not clear But my focus is crystal Cause my wounds are bleeding still You hurt me forever How could I ever have thought that you would The only two that I trusted Why the hell should I forgive You left me to winter And god damn this loneliness [Solo: Englund] My sadness you'll see This sorrow ends in victory My trust your betrayal I stab away my sorrows It all ends here my sight now clear A new day begins tomorrow A brighter season is here The sun c
Sorry Ms. Jackson but I'm packin
[Hook: Talib Kweli + background singers]
This morning I woke up
Feelin brand new and I, I jumped up
Feelin my highs and my lows
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smoking and stop drinkin
But I been thinkin I got my reasons
Just to get by, just to get by
Just to get (by), just to get
(everybody get your hands in the sky, it go)
[background singers]
bah dah bah dah, bah dah bah dah
Bah dah bah dah, bah dah bah daaah
[Talib Kweli]
Just to get by, just to get by

[Talib Kweli]
Just to get by, just to get by
(Talib Kweli) Just to get by
We keep it gangsta, stay 'fo shizzle', 'fo sheezy'
To set the tide to the violence on the TV during the war
Killin each other is easy, there's war and liquor for fallen niggas Believe
me, it's ghetto love, I bet you seen it all befo'
Just to get by, my people we get fly
My people we get high, fillin cigars with the lah
Nigga come on, even Jesus was stoned before receivin the throne
Lska Mig Alltid Lyrics
I hear the lines on the telegraph Buzz in my head I have to shut them out My ears to the ground But I try to stand up And straighten out Forget my doubt 'Cos I couldn't bear to lose you You're the only one I care for But I can't lock out the rumours I shut my eyes so I won't see because One little lie can go a long way One little lie can go a long way Would I learn to trust again some day I try to ask but my tongue gets tied When I guess the answer If you turned your head away from me I know I'd stand there forever Vaught out in time by a line That I want
[Busta Rhymes]
Back in the days we was used to doin the shit
I can't call it all in the streets
We was hustlin fiends that asked for it
I guess I was used to just standin on corners
Waitin for paper bags with bundles of crack
Hopin the week was good so I could get money back
To get by, just to get by, just to get by, just to get by
When I was stressed I possessed a side of my strength
That made me angry and bleed
With the frustration havin me smokin Newports and weed
To get by, just to get by, just to get by, just to get by
Those be the times when I try to rely
On my niggas and street motherfuckers
And reach out to wifey and then I place a call on my mother
To get by, just to get by, just to get by, just to get by
(Hey yo mom pick up the phone, I g- I gotta to talk to you ma)
If you was five percent instead of actin stupid and guessin
You had to go and study your lessons
And know your math in the building recession to get by
[Hook: Talib Kweli + background singers]
This morning I woke up
Feelin brand new and I, I jumped up
Feelin my highs and my lows
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smoking and stop drin
The Day I See You Again Lyrics
Walking home from work tonight Your letter warm, I'm holding tight Said you want to see me soon I phoned you late this afternoon The bar we first met seems alive I'll see you there at eight tonight Shouldn't think like this But is there something in us meeting now? All this time, I've waited knowing Though I've changed my heart's still showing I'll wear a new dress, wash my clothes I'll wear the earrings that you chose If the man you've grown to be Is more Morrison than Morrisey I'll tell you straight as we undress That things got better wh

Some people try to be fly
They fake and they lie
They snakes'll see the hate in their eyes
Look at the sky to survive
People try to get by
Fightin force, slice of the pie
Tryin to eat and be high
How you know you really alive if you don't reach for the sky?
Your eyes keep on the prize
What you seek and you'll find
Who's the realest niggas? that we let people decide
Who keepin it live?
Brooklyn got the key to the ride, c'mon
Some people try to be fly
They fake and they lie
They snakes'll see the hate in their eyes
Look at the sky to survive
People try to get by
Fightin force, slice of the pie
Tryin to eat and be high
How you know you really alive if you don't reach for the sky?
Your eyes keep on the prize
What you seek and you'll find
Who's the realest niggas? that we let people decide
Who keepin it live?
Brooklyn got the key to the ride, c'mon
