I wanna follow
where she goes
I think about her
and she knows it
I wanna let her
take control
'Cause every time that
she gets close yeah
She pulls me
in enough
To keep me guessing
mmm
And maybe
I should stop
And start confessing
confessing yeah
Oh I've been shaking
I love it
When you go
crazy
You take all
my inhibitions
Baby there's nothing
holdin' me back
You take me
places
That tear up
my reputation
Manipulate
my decisions
Baby there's nothing
holdin' me back
There's nothing
holdin' me back
There's nothing
holdin' me back
She says that
she's never afraid
Just picture
everybody naked
She really
doesn't like to wait
Not really
into hesitation
Pulls me
in enough
To keep me guessing
whoa
And maybe
I should stop
And start confessing
confessing yeah
Oh I've been shaking
I love it
When you go
crazy
You take all
my inhibitions
Baby there's nothing
holdin' me back
You take me
places
That tear up
my reputation
Manipulate
my decisions
Baby there's nothing
holdin' me back
There's nothing
holdin' me back

'Cause
if we lost our minds
And we took it
way too far
I know
we'd be alright
Know
we would be alright
If you were
by my side
And we stumbled
in the dark
I know
we'd be alright
I know
we would be alright
'Cause
if we lost our minds
And we took it
way too far
I know
we'd be alright
I know
we would be alright
If you were
by my side
And we stumbled
in the dark
I know we'd be alright
we would be alright
Oh I've been shaking
I love it
When you go
crazy
You take all
my inhibitions
Baby there's nothing
holdin' me back
You take me
places
That tear up

Manipulate
my decisions
Baby there's nothing
holdin' me back
There's nothing
holdin' me back
I feel
so free
When you're with me
baby
Baby there's nothing
holdin' me back

I will not make
the same mistakes
That you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart
so much misery
I will not break
the way you did
You fell so hard
I've learned
The hard way
to never let it
Get that far
because of you
I never stray too far
from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play
On the safe side
so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it
Hard to trust
not only me
But everyone around me
because of you
I am afraid
I lose my way
And it's not
too long
Before you point
it out
I cannot cry
because I know
That's weakness
in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
a smile a laugh
Everyday of my life
my heart can't
Possibly break
when it wasn't
Even whole
to start with
Because of you
I never stray
Too far
from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play
On the safe side
so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it
Hard to trust
not only me
But everyone around me
because of you
I am afraid
I watched you die
I heard you cry
every night
In your sleep
I was so young
You should have
known better
Than to lean on me
you never thought
Of anyone else
you just saw your pain
And now I cry
in the middle
Of the night
for the same
Damn thing
because of you
I never stray too far
from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play
On the safe side
so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest
Just to forget
everything
Because of you
I don't know how to
Let anyone else in
because of you
I'm ashamed of my life
because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you
because of you

I'm sitting here
in a boring room
It's just another
rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time
I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever
happens and I wonder
I'm driving around
in my car
I'm driving too fast
I'm driving too far
I'd like to change
my point of view
I feel so lonely
I'm waiting for you
But nothing
ever happens
And I wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
yesterday you told me
About the
blue blue sky
And all that
I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree
I'm turning my head
up and down
I'm turning turning
turning turning
Turning around
and all that I can see
Is just
another lemon tree
Sing da
da da da da dee da da
Da da da da dee da da
da da da da
I'm sitting here
I miss the power
I'd like to go out
taking a shower
But there's a heavy
cloud inside my head
I feel so tired
put myself into bed
Where nothing
ever happens
And I wonder
Isolation
Is not good for me
Isolation
I don't want to
sit on a lemon tree
I'm stepping around
in a desert of joy
Baby any how
I'll get another toy
And everything
will happen
And you'll wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
yesterday you told me
About the
blue blue sky
And all that
I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree
I'm turning my head
up and down
I'm turning turning
turning turning
Turning around
and all that I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree
Yellow wonder wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
yesterday you told me
About the
blue blue sky
And all that I can see
and all that I can see
And all that
I can see
Is just
a yellow lemon tree

I think I'm drowning
asphyxiated
I wanna break
the spell
That you've created
you're something
Beautiful
a contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction
You will be
the death of me
Yeah you will be
the death of me
Bury it I won't
let you bury it
I won't let you
smother it
I won't let you
murder it
And our time is
running out
And our time is
running out
You can't push it
underground
You can't stop it
screaming out

I wanted freedom
bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
but I'm addicted
Now that you know
I'm trapped
Since ovulation
you'd never dream of
Breaking
this fixation
You will squeeze
the life out of me
Bury it I won't
let you bury it
I won't let you
smother it
I won't let you
murder it
And our time is
running out
But our time is
running out
You can't push it
underground
You can't stop it
screaming out
How did it
come to this
Ooh ooh ooh
yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah ooh ooh ooh
yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah ooh ooh ooh

Yeah you will suck
the life out of me
Bury it I won't
let you bury it

smother it
I won't let you
murder it
And our time is
running out
And our time is
running out
You can't push it
underground
You can't stop it
screaming out
How did it

Ooh ooh ooh

Uhm uhm

Some people live
for the fortune
Some people live
just for the fame
Some people live
for the power yeah
Some people live
just to play the game
Some people think that
the physical things
Define
what's within
And I been
there before
But that
life's a bore
So full
of the superficial
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't

If I ain't got
you baby
Some people want
diamond rings
Some just want
everything
But everything
means nothing
If I ain't got
you yeah
Some people search
for a fountain
That promises
forever young
Some people need
three dozen roses
And that's
the only way
To prove you love him
hand me the world
On a silver platter
and what
Good would it be
with no one to share
With no one who truly
cares for me
Some people
want it all
But I don't want
nothing at all
If it ain't

Whole wide world

We speak of the devil
he's no friend of mine
To turn from him is
what we've got in mind
Just a liar
and a thief
The word
tell us so
We like to let him
know where he can go
To hell
with the devil
To hell
with the devil
When things
are going wrong
You know who to blame
he will always
Live up
to his name
He's never been
the answer
There's a better way
we are here
To rock you
and to say
To hell
with the devil
To hell
with the devil-

To hell
with the devil
To hell
with the devil
To hell
with the devil
To hell
with the devil
To hell
with the devil
To hell with the devil
devil devil-

I see the
crystal raindrops fall
And the
beauty of it all
Is when the sun
comes shining through
To make those
rainbows in my mind
When I think
of you some time
And I want to spend
some time with you
Just the two of us
we can make it
If we try
just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
Building castles
in the sky
Just the two of us
you and I
We look for love
no time for tears
Wasted waters's
all that is
And it don't make no
flowers grow
Good things might
come to those
Who wait not to those
who wait to late
We got to go
for all we know
Just the two of us
we can make it
If we try
just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
Building castles
in the sky
Just the two of us
you and I

I hear the crystal
raindrops fall
On the window
down the hall
And it becomes
the morning dew
Darling, when the
morning comes
And I see
the morning sun
I want to be
the one with you
Just the two of us
we can make it
If we try
just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
Building castles
in the sky
Just the two of us
you and I
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
(We can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
just the two of us
(we can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the two of us
we can make it)
(Just the two of us
just the two of us)
(We can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the two of us
we can make it)
(Just the two of us
just the two of us)
(We can make it
just the two of us)
(Just the
two of us)

Look
if you had
One shot
one opportunity
To seize everything
you ever wanted
One moment
would you capture it
Or just let it slip yo
his palms are sweaty
Knees weak arms
are heavy
There's vomit
on his sweater
Alredy mom's spaghetti
he's nervous
But on the surface
he looks calm
And ready
to drop bombs
But he keeps on
forgettin
What he wrote down
the whole crowd
Goes so loud yo
he open his mouth
But the words
won't come out
He's chokin how
everybody's jokin now
The clock's run out
time's up over bloah
Snap back to reality
oh there goes gravity
Oh there goes rabbit
he choked
He's so mad
but he won't
Give up that is he
no he won't have it
He knows his whole
back city's ropes
I don't matter
he's dope
He knows that
but he's broke
He's so stacked
that he knows
When he goes back
to his mobile home
That's when it's back
to the lab again yo
This whole rap shit
he better go capture
This moment and
hope it don't pass him
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Comes once
in a lifetime
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own
it you better
Never let it go ho
you only get one shot
Do not miss
your chance to blow
This opportunity
comes once
In a lifetime
you better
The soul's escaping
through this hole
That it's gaping
this world is mine
For the taking
make me king
As we move toward
a new world order
A normal life is borin
but superstardom's
Close to post mortar
it only grows harder
Only grows hotter
he blows us all over
These hoes is
all on him
Coast to coast shows
he's know
As the globetrotter
lonely roads
God only knows
he's know father
From home
he's no father
He goes home
and barely knows
His own daughter
but hold your nose
Cuz here
goes the cold water
His hoes don't want
him no mo
He's cold product
they moved on
To the next schmoe
who flows
He nose dove and
sold nada
So the soap opera is
told and unfolds
I suppose
it's old potna
But the beat goes on
da da dum de dom
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Comes once
in a lifetime
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity comes
Once in a lifetime
you better
No more games
I'm a change
What you call rage
tear this mothafuckin
Roof off like
2 doas cased
I was playing
in the beginning
The mood all changed
I been chewed up
And spit out
and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin
and stepwritin
The next cypher
best believe
Somebody's payin
the pied piper
All the pain inside
amplified by the fact
That I can't get by
with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide
the right type of
Life for my family
cuz man
These goddam
food stamps
Don't buy diapers
and it's no movie
There's
no Mekhi phifer
This is my life
and these times
Are so hard
and it's getting
Even harder
trying to feed
And water my seed
plus see dishonor
Caught up between
bein a father
And a prima donna
baby mama drama's
Screamin on and
too much for me
To wanna stay
in one spot
Another jam or not
has gotten me
To the point
I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate
a plot fore
I end up in jail
or shot success is
My only mothafuckin
option failure's not
Mam I love you
but this trail has
Got to go
I cannot grow old
In salem's lot so
here I go is my shot
Feet fail me not
cuz maybe
The only opportunity
that I got
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Comes once
in a lifetime
You better
lose yourself
In the music
the moment
You own it you better
never let it go ho
You only get one shot
do not miss
Your chance to blow
this opportunity
Come once
in a lifetime
You better
you can do anything
You set your mind
to man-

When I was
a young boy
My father took me
into the city
To see a marching band
he said
"Son when you grow up
would you be
The savior
of the broken
The beaten
and the damned?"
He said
"will you defeat them
Your demons and
all the non-believers
The plans
that they have made?
Because one day
I'll leave you
A phantom to lead you
in the summer
To join
the black parade"
When I was
a young boy
My father took me
into the city
To see a marching band
he said
"Son when you grow up
would you be
The savior
of the broken
The beaten
and the damned?"

Sometimes I get
the feeling
She's watching over me
and other times
I feel
like I should go
And through it
all the rise and fall
The bodies
in the streets
And when you're gone
we want you
All to know
we'll carry on
We'll carry on
and though you're dead
And gone believe me
your memory will
Carry on
we'll carry on
And in my heart
I can't contain it
The anthem won't
explain it
A world that sends
you reeling
From decimated dreams
your misery
And hate will
kill us all
So paint it black
and take it back
Let's shout it loud
and clear
Defiant
to the end
We hear the call
to carry on
We'll carry on
and though you're dead
And gone believe me
your memory will
Carry on
we'll carry on
And though
you're broken
And defeated you're
weary widow marches
On and on we carry
through the fears
Oh oh oh
disappointed
Faces of
your peers
Oh oh oh oh
take a look at me
'Cause I could not
care at all
Do or die
you'll never make me
Because the world will
never take my heart
Go and try
you'll never break me
We want it all we
wanna play this part
I won't explain
or say I'm sorry
I'm unashamed
I'm gonna show my scar
Give a cheer
for all the broken
Listen here because
it's who we are
I'm just a man
I'm not a hero
Just a boy who had
to sing his song
I'm just a man
I'm not a hero
I! don't! care!
we'll carry on
We'll carry on
and though you're dead
And gone believe me
your memory will
Carry on
we'll carry on
And though
you're broken
And defeated you're
weary widow marches on
We'll carry on
we'll carry on
We'll carry on
we'll carry
We'll
carry on

First things first
I'ma say
All the words
inside my head
I'm fired up
and tired of
The way that things
have been oh woo
The way that things
have been oh woo
Second things second
don't you tell me
What you think
that I could be
I'm the one
at the sail
I'm the master
of my sea oh woo
The master
of my sea oh woo
I was broken
from a young age
Taking my sulking
to the masses
Writing my poems
for the few
That look at me
took to me
Shook to me
feeling me
Singing from heartache
from the pain
Taking my message
from the veins
Speaking my lesson
from the brain
Seeing the beauty
through the
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Pain
you break me down
You build me up
believer believer
Pain
oh let the bullets fly
Oh let them
rain
My life my love
my drive it came from
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Third things third
send a prayer
To the ones
up above
All the hate
that you've heard has
Turned your spirit
to a dove oh woo
Your spirit up above
oh woo
I was choking
in the crowd
Building my rain up
in the cloud
Falling like ashes
to the ground
Hoping my feelings
they would drown
But they never did
ever lived
Ebbing
and flowing
Inhibited limited
till it broke open
And rained down
and rained down like
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Pain
you break me down
You build me up
believer believer
Pain
oh let the bullets fly
Oh let them
rain
My life my love
my drive it came from
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Last things last
by the grace
Of the fire
and the flames
You're the face
of the future
The blood in my veins
oh woo
The blood in my veins
oh woo
But they never did
ever lived
Ebbing
and flowing
Inhibited limited
till it broke open
And rained down
and rained down like
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer
Pain
you break me down
You build me up
believer believer
Pain
oh let the bullets fly
Oh let them
rain
My life my love
my drive it came from
Pain
you made me a
You made me a
believer believer

Fever dream
high
In the quiet
of the night
You know
that I caught it
Bad bad boy
shiny toy with a price
You know
that I bought it
Killing me slow
out the window
I'm always waiting
for you
To be waiting
below
Devils roll the dice
angels roll their eyes
What doesn't kill me
makes me want you more
And it's new
the shape of your body
It's blue
the feeling I've got
And it's woo woah
it's a cruel summer
It's cool
that's what I tell 'em
No rules
in breakable heaven
But woo woah
it's a cruel summer
With
you
Hang your head low
in the glow
Of the vending machine
I'm not dying
We say that
we'll just screw it up
In these trying times
we're not trying
So cut the headlights
summer's a knife
I'm always waiting
for you
Just to cut
to the bone
Devils roll the dice
angels roll their eyes
And
if I bleed
You'll be the last
to know oh
It's new
the shape of your body
It's blue
the feeling I've got
And it's woo woah
it's a cruel summer
It's cool
that's what I tell 'em
No rules
in breakable heaven
But woo woah
it's a cruel summer
With
you
I'm drunk
in the back of the car
And I cried
like a baby
Comin' home
from the bar
Said I'm fine
but it wasn't true
I don't wanna
keep secrets
Just to keep
you and I
Snuck in through
the garden gate
Every night
that summer
Just to seal
my fate
And I scream
for whatever
It's worth
I love you
Ain't that the worst
thing you ever heard
He looks up grinnin'
like a devil
It's new
the shape of your body
It's blue
the feeling I've got
And it's woo woah
it's a cruel summer
It's cool
that's what I tell 'em
No rules
in breakable heaven
But woo woah
it's a cruel summer
With
you
I'm drunk
in the back of the car
And I cried
like a baby
Comin' home
from the bar
Said I'm fine
but it wasn't true
I don't wanna
keep secrets
Just to keep
you and I
Snuck in through
the garden gate
Every night
that summer
Just to seal
my fate
And I scream
for whatever
It's worth
I love you
Ain't that the worst
thing you ever heard

Another summer day has
come and gone away
In Paris and Rome but
I wanna go home uhm
May be surrounded by
a million people
I still feel all alone
just wanna go home
Oh I miss you
you know
And I've been keeping
all the letters
That I wrote to you
each one a line or two
"I'm fine baby
how are you?"
Well I would send them
but I know
That it's just
not enough
My words were
cold and flat
And you deserve
more than that
Another aeroplane
another sunny place
I'm lucky I know but
I wanna go home uhm
I've got to
go home
Let me go home~
I'm just too far
From where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel
just like I'm living
Someone
else's life
It's like I just
stepped outside
When everything was
going right
And I know just
why you could not
Come along
with me
But this was
not your dream
But you always
believed in me
Another winter day has
come and gone away
In even Paris and Rome
and I wanna go home
Let me
go home
And I'm surrounded by
a million people
I still feel alone
oh let me go home
Oh I miss you
you know
Let me go home~
I've had my run
Baby I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home~
it will be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home

You're insecure
don't know what for
You're turning heads
when you walk
Through
the door
Don't need make-up
to cover up
Being the way
that you are is enough
Everyone else
in the room can see it
Everyone else
but you
Baby you light up
my world
Like
nobody else
The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me
overwhelmed
But when you smile
at the ground
It ain't hard
to tell
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful
If only you saw
what I could see
You'll understand
why I want you
So desperately
right now
I'm looking at you
and I can't believe
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful oh oh
That's what makes
you beautiful
So girl come on
you got it wrong
To prove I'm right
I put it in a song
I don't know why
you're being shy
And
turn away
When I look
into your eyes
Everyone else
in the room can see it
Everyone else
but you
Baby you light up
my world
Like
nobody else
The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me
overwhelmed
But when you smile
at the ground
It ain't hard
to tell
You don't know
oh oh
You don't know
you're beautiful
If only you saw
what I can see
You'll understand
why I want you
So desperately
right now

and I can't believe

you beautiful

my world
Like

The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me

Baby you light up
my world
Like
nobody else
The way that you flip
your hair
Gets me
overwhelmed
But when you smile

Tried so hard
to be your man
The kind of man
you want in the end
Only then can I begin
to live again
An empty shell
I used to be
The shadow of my life
was hangin' over me
A broken man
that I don't know
Won't even
stand
The devil's dance
to win my soul
What we doin'
what we chasin'
Why the bottom
why the basement
Why we got good sxxx
don't embrace it
Why the feel for
the need to replace me
You're the wrong way
track from the good
I want to paint
a picture
Tellin'
where we could be at
Like a heart
in the best
Way should
you can give it away
You had it
and you took the pay
But I keep walkin' on
keep openin' doors
Keep hopin' for
now the door is yours
Keep also home

To live
in a broken home

to hold my own
Just can't make it

She's got a smile
that it seems
To me reminds
me of childhood
Memories
where everything
Was fresh as
the bright blue sky
Now and then
when I see her face
She takes me away
to that special place
And if I stared
too long
I'd probably
break down and cry
Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh sweet love
of mine

She's got eyes of
the bluest skies
As if they thought
of rain
I hate to look
into those eyes
And see
an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me
of a warm safe place
Where as a child
I'd hide
And pray
for the thunder
And the rain to
quietly pass me by
Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh sweet love
of mine

Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh
sweet love of mine
Oh sweet child
o' mine
Oh
sweet love of mine

Where do we go
where do we go now
Where do we go
woo where do we go
Oh where do we go now
where do we go
Um
where do we go now
Ah
where do we go now
Where do we go ah
where do we go now
Where do we go
where do we go now
Where do we go
where do we go now
No
sweet child
Sweet child
o' mine

I don't drink coffee
I take tea my dear
I like my toast done
on the side
And you can hear it
in my accent
When I talk
I'm an Englishman
In New York
see me walking down
Fifth avenue
a walking cane here
At my side
I take it everywhere
I walk
I'm an Englishman
In New York
uh- I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman
In New York uh-
I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman
In New York
if manners maketh
Man as someone said
then he's the hero
Of the day
it takes a man
To suffer ignorance
and smile
Be yourself no matter
what they say uh-
I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman
in New York uh-
I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman
in New York
Modesty propriety
can lead to notoriety
You could end up
as the only one
Gentleness sobriety
are rare
In this society
at night
A candle's brighter
than the sun-

Takes more than combat
gear to make a man
Takes more than
license for a gun
Confront your enemies
avoid them
When you can
a gentleman will walk
But never run
if 'manners maketh
Man' as someone said
then he's the hero
Of the day
it takes a man
To suffer ignorance
and smile
Be yourself no matter
what they say
Be yourself no matter
what they say
Be yourself no matter

Be yourself no matter
what they say
Be yourself no matter
what they say
Be yourself no matter
what they say
Be yourself no matter

Be yourself no matter
what they say
Be yourself no matter
what they say
Be yourself no matter
what they say-

Fly me to the moon
and let me
Play among the stars
let me see what spring
Is like on
Jupiter and Mars
In other words
hold my hand
In other words
darling kiss me

Fill my heart with
song and let me sing
Forever more
you are all I long
For all I worship
and adore
In other words
please be true
In other words
I love you-

Fill my heart with

Forever more
