Lyrics:
I was five years old when daddy started packing,
And I stood there by my Momma as she cried.
And the next thing that we knew, that ol' train came
tried hard
For all the things that I wanted but my money was inadequate
Probably be killed by my cousins back in Africa
If they knew I risked my free
Happy holidays
Let me come here and talk to you
I gotta stop sayin' I'm not doin' this shit no more knowin' I'm cappin'
(Great John on the beat by
to spanish town
i was only there for a while
but when i think back on all the love we shared
i just cant but help to smile
we spent one whole long year
Thirty years you been draggin' your feet
Tellin' me I'm the reason we're stagnant
Thirty years you've been claiming you're honest
And promising
said – of the last 25
Years the best album of
The past 25 years that I spent a year and a
Half making, out there i was
Exiled from my country, it was
Wonder Mike and
I'd like to say "hello"
To the black, to the white
The red and the brown, the purple and yellow
But first
I gotta bang bang the boogie
Where’s dear Alice knocking on the door
Where’s the trapdoor that takes me there
Where the real is shattered by a Mad March Hare
Where is the wonder
this whole place.
God is here, we can feel His power and anointing.
There is miracle, there is signs and wonders.
There is deliverance, in this
Love song, aha
9th wonder, come on
It ain't cool to make a love song, love song
They looking at me like there's something wrong
This ain't a song
of you who care enough to wonder why
Let me tell you
It all started back in 1957 when ole Walt Disney took him by surprise
Thats the day Old Yeller died
death, you gotta die
A lot of my peers didn't make it to the years to come
Did life doin' right or did life livin' dumb
Who has the answers? I wonder, I
of time
Magnolias paint a picture
Visions full of bliss
Things that make you wonder
What there's left to wish
Memories of years gone by
Do you have the gift
the great divide, and a white man stiff and still,
Lying there by his lonesome self, and I figured it must be Bill.
So I thought of the contract I'd made
paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change
The road you're on, on and on
Said ooh, makes me wonder
Ooh, makes me wonder
Your
the years (God) and shed so many tears
God, I lost so many peers, and shed so many tears
Lord knows I.. tried, been a witness to homicide
Seen drive-by
the sea of red
There are stories to be told
As the years go by
All the memories unfold
Bow your head
In fields of wonder where those swallows soar
Definitely did take a long time
2020 been a sad year
Wasn't gon' even do this
But I think that y'all needed me after everything that been goin'
counties, get a lawyer, you can shake the shit
Ask Rodney, Latasha, and many more
It's been going on for years, there's plenty more
When they ask me, "When
Yeah
Every hood's the same,
Every hood's the same,
C'mon
[Chorus]
The give us guns and drugs,
They wonder why we fuck wit thugs,
They want
friends's hammer and the young shall
not know where lieth the things possessed by their fathers that their
fathers put there only just the night before ...
the future seems so far
Time goes by, before you know it
You've travelled halfway to the end of it
You wonder why, you never notice, years have passed you by
come a-knocking at your door
Who's there? (not love)
And as the years go by
You'll sit and wonder why
Nobody calls you Darling anymore
that I exist
(Sometimes I wonder why)
Yeah, there's a reason I keep writing songs about this
(Sometimes I wonder if I matter to you)
You were my family
