Lyrics:
of walking on ice
Cockroach Roof (cockroach roof)
Come to take me (home)
Thinking of you, watching the world go cold and expecting the view
To deliver me home
When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face (Up on the roof)
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
(chorus) Raise your hands, so we can
Raise the roof, so you can
Raise your voice, so we can
Raise
the right
I hear the voices of freedom, baby, from all over this world
Well, it's the voices of freedom
Oh baby, baby, voices of freedom, hey hey
the right
I hear the voices of freedom, baby, from all over this world
Well, it's the voices of freedom
Oh baby, baby, voices of freedom, hey hey
Yea, hmmm
Alright now
Yea
After the ultimate world blast that ended all things
This is how we rebuilt shit from the underground up
Bounce
blind spot
Mind games
Stop stepping on my shoes, shoes, shoes
Just step into my mind frame
Come get up on the roof
Come get up on the roof one time
come
just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
When I come home
just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
When I come home
just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
When I come home
The good in the world, you gotta choose it
It's up to you and you alone, cuz I'm with God now that ain't always where I was
Going down, I was christened
just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
When I come home
where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
I get away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof
Become another casualty
The whole world on my shoulders
I feel like that bitch is mad at me
I walk right in my studio and happily
Tear the roof up off
and breakin' and the roof tops a-shakin'
And your whole world's a-slammin' and bangin'
And your minutes of sun turn to hours of storm
And to yourself you
[voice in background]
Yeah, you in tune to another episode in my area code
All sorts of episodes in my area code
Where the blocks explode, where
drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
When I come home feelin' tired
review on Fader
Still get no love from Pitchfork
Nigel Rubirosa, que la cosa?
Feet up on the sofa
Heat up on the holster
World's Fair Yeah, you know
When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face (up on the roof)
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
me from this present world
Translate me to the Spirit realm
Where I can hear thy still small voice
And do thy will here on earth
Detach me from this
Hear me speak I'm just be a name to da world (Hear me speak)
I just be a voice to girls (Hear me speak)
Its just all about da struggle n da pain hear
Tryna get my people out the city, fore a muthafucker try to kill me
Big shit coming from a big dog, big shit coming from a big dog (Roof)
Big shit coming
Yeah, woah (Sun god Shmoke)
I need a bellowing voice on this one
Is that what he's been this whole time?
This whole time he was a Sun god?
This whole
When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face (up on the roof)
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
