Lyrics:
Yes, it was the worst thing in my life, the worst thing I ever witnessed to Yes, it was the worst thing in my life, the worst thing I ever witnessed to When the woman that I loved, when she said we were really through Take it easy baby, lots of things come before we part Take it easy baby, lots of things come before we part Yes, lots of those little things you're doing I want to know if you're doing them, because you think you're so smart I don't say that you won't leave me, but think of the shape you'll be in I don't say that you won't leave me, but think of the shape you'll be in I want to know you'll hate that you ever met me, and you'll hate the day that we began Why should you 'cuse me, baby, without me giving you a cause Why should you 'cuse me, baby, without me giving you a cause I know I've been good to you, baby, as if I was a Santa Claus You don't think much of your life, to put yourself in a spot You don't think much of your life, to put yourself in a spot When the people see me clowning, they all wonder what you got
Oooooo-ooooo-ooooo Ooo-ooo-ooo Everyone's in love with you But you can't fall in love with anyone Still everyone's in love with you Though you can't fall in love with only one So many people have had a love affair Have had a love to share like mine But I tell you people I found something new A love of a different kind Everyone's in love with you Though most just barely glimpse a part of you They all can see your love shine through It come s from deep within the heart of you So many people have had their love affairs Had their loves to share like mine Now I tell you people I witnessed something new A love that could only be divine Everyone's in love with you And though you can't belong to only one Still everyone's in love with you Because (beacause) you gave your love (Beacause) Because you gave your love (you gave your love) Because you gave your love to everyone
I was thinking of a series of dreams Where nothing comes up to the top Everything stays down where it's wounded And comes to a permanent stop Wasn't thinking of anything specific Like in a dream, when someone wakes up and screams Nothing too very scientific Just thinking of a series of dreams Thinking of a series of dreams Where the time and the tempo fly And there's no exit in any direction 'Cept the one that you can't see with your eyes Wasn't making any great connection Wasn't falling for any intricate scheme Nothing that would pass inspection Just thinking of a series of dreams Dreams where the umbrella is folded Into the path you are hurled And the cards are no good that you're holding Unless they're from another world In one, numbers were burning In another, I witnessed a crime In one, I was running, and in another All I seemed to be doing was climb Wasn't looking for any special assistance Not going to any great extremes I'd already gone the distance Just thinking of a series of dreams
I'm a one man band, but give the drummer some Mike WiLL, yeah, the Ear Drummers some I'm a Black Beatle like Rae Srem' and them And every weekend a half M&M Shout out every word in my verse I need you to scream with me 'til it hurt 'Cause this is the greatest show on earth You witnessed the greatest show on earth I need you to sing with me 'til it hurt And shout out every word in my verse 'Cause this is the greatest show on earth You witnessed the greatest show on earth
I was thinking of a series of dreams Where nothing comes up to the top Everything stays down where it's wounded And comes to a permanent stop Wasn't thinking of anything specific Like in a dream, when someone wakes up and screams Nothing too very scientific Just thinking of a series of dreams Thinking of a series of dreams Where the time and the tempo fly And there's no exit in any direction 'Cept the one that you can't see with your eyes Wasn't making any great connection Wasn't falling for any intricate scheme Nothing that would pass inspection Just thinking of a series of dreams Dreams where the umbrella is folded Into the path you are hurled And the cards are no good that you're holding Unless they're from another world In one, the surface was frozen In another, I witnessed a crime In one, I was running, and in another All I seemed to be doing was climb Wasn't looking for any special assistance Not going to any great extremes I'd already gone the distance Just thinking of a series of dreams Dreams where the umbrella is folded Into the path you are hurled And the cards are no good that you're holding Unless they're from another world I'd already gone the distance Just thinking of a series of dreams
It took so long to remember just what happened I was so young and vestal then You know it hurt me But I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive Even if signs seem to tell me otherwise I've got my hands bound My head down, my eyes closed And my throat's wide open Do unto others what has been done to me Do unto others what has been done to you I'm treading water I need to sleep a while My lamb and martyr, you look so precious Won't you, won't you come a bit closer Close enough so I can smell you I need you to feel this I can't stand to burn too long Release in sodomy For one sweet moment I am whole Do unto you now What has been done to me Do unto you now What has been done You're breathing so I guess you're still alive Even if signs seem to tell me otherwise Won't you, won't you come on a bit closer Close enough so I can smell you I need you to feel this I need this to make me whole Release in sodomy Have you witnessed Blood and flesh can't be trusted? Have you witnessed Blood and flesh can't be trusted? And only this one holy medium brings me peace of mind Got your hands bound, your head down And your eyes closed You look so precious now I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this Shit, blood and cum on my hands I've come 'round full circle My lamb and martyr, this will be over soon You look so precious You look so precious You look so precious You look so precious You look so precious now You look so precious
These mist covered mountains Are a home now for me But my home is the lowlands And always will be Someday you'll return to Your valleys and your farms And you'll no longer burn to be Brothers in arms Through these fields of destruction Baptisms of fire I've witnessed your suffering As the battle raged high And though they did hurt me so bad In the fear and alarm You did not desert me My brothers in arms There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones Now the sun's gone to hell and The moon's riding high Let me bid you farewell Every man has to die But it's written in the starlight And every line in your palm We're fools to make war On our brothers in arms
Take me to commercial The world's most dangerous group Once again, beating on your motherfucking eardrums It's the niggas in black, ready to attack See, y'all know what time it is What motherfucking time it is! You have witnessed, you have heard So we're gonna take time out for commercial break Be on a look out for the new n.w.a. album Ladies and gentlemen The name of the new album is niggas for life!
One of the major songs on that Album was the Watts Riot song "Trouble Every Day" And the funny thing Is that the lyrics to that song didn't go Out of style, I mean as you witnessed last year with the Exception of the woman Driver being sawed in half by 50 caliber machine gun bullets I guess everything else is right there
These mist covered mountains Are a home now for me But my home is the lowlands And always will be Someday you'll return to Your valleys and your farms And you'll no longer burn to be Brothers in arms Through these fields of destruction Baptisms of fire I've witnessed your suffering As the battle raged high And though they did hurt me so bad In the fear and alarm You did not desert me My brothers in arms There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones Now the sun's gone to hell and The moon's riding high Let me bid you farewell Every man has to die But it's written in the starlight And every line in your palm We're fools to make war On our brothers in arms
Whoa Whoa Ooh Ooh I was younger than you are now When I was given my first command I led my men into a massacre Witnessed their deaths firsthand Oh, I made every mistake I felt the shame rise in me And even now I lie awake Knowing history, history History has its eyes on me History, history, history, aha History has its eyes on me History, history, history Aha Let me tell you what I wish I'd known When I was young and dreamed of glory Don't nobody have control Who lives, who dies, who tells your story I know that we can win I know that greatness lies in you But remember from here on in That history, history History has its eyes on you History, history, history, oh ha History has its eyes on you History Whoa Whoa Whoa (whoa) History has its eyes on you History, history, history (whoa) Aha History has its eyes on you (ooh) History (aha) History has its eyes on you (ooh, ooh) History, history Ooh, yeah
I've heard all the stories I've seen all the signs Witnessed all the glory Tasted all that's fine Nothing compares to the greatness of knowing You, Lord Nothing compares to the greatness of knowing You, Lord I see all the people Wasting all their time Building up their riches For a life that's fine I find myself just living for today â??
If from one comes one and only one How is it I tick here so woebegone Though I cannot feel I note my sums Two ohms from null And though but half of you and a mess of fuse I've witnessed searing love and sought refuge And as you've come because I grew not used But ever-fast Just close those lids and rest assure As vigilantes and the your in yours's in arms I'm glad, not sad, no Should I hope to be the light you'd deny?
Oh, I watched you grow up Only to despise I seen the madness stack up Through tarpaulin eyes I have heard you come up Believing your own lies Witnessed the blessing rise up In a very strange disguise And though you have become a burden One thing remains, that's for certain I will love you all my life But without you in my life Yes I watched you climb up I seen you come alive From those very humble beginnings In NW5 And though we face the final curtain One thing remains, that's for certain I will love you all my life But without you in my life I would give you everything For just that smile you bring For just that song to sing I would give you everything For just that smile you bring For just that song to sing, I sing now Oh I watched you grow up Only to despise Witnessed the blessing rise up In a very strange disguise Nothing, it seems, lasts forever People change just like the weather Some for good and sometimes never I hope things work out for the better 'Cause I would give you everything For just that smile you bring For just that song to sing I would give you everything For just that smile you bring For just that song to sing I would give you everything For just that smile you bring For just that song to sing I would give you everything For just that smile you bring For just that song to sing I would give you everything For just the smile you bring Just to hear that song to sing
Standing room only not even room to kneel and pray Standing room only on the Judgement Day Last night I have an awful dream that the end of time had come The trumpet had been sounded and life on earth has done An angel stood one foot on land the other foot on sea And as I tried to kneel and pray a voice said unto me There's standing room only it's too late now to pray There's standing room only this is the Judgement Day People filled each church and churchyard just as far as I could see I heard the pityful cry for mercy and then I realized it was me I saw the Saviour did appear as he split the eastern sky I saw tears of joy on a Christian's face and I heard the sinners cry And as I tried to touch his hand with one last people plea I cried again have mercy have mercy Lord on me I saw a cheer come to his eye as he turned my soul away I didn't know him yesterday and he knew me not today The earth was burning all around the world wound up in smoke And as the flames came off me thank God I awoke Then I got out of bed and got down on my knees And you should've heard me pray For in my dream I witnessed God's great Judgement Day Standing room only on God's great Judgement Day
I was younger than you are now When I was given my first command I led my men straight into a massacre I witnessed their deaths firsthand I made every mistake And felt the shame rise in me And even now I lie awake Knowing history has its eyes on me (whoa) History has its eyes on me Whoa Whoa Yeah Let me tell you what I wish I'd known When I was young and dreamed of glory You have no control Who lives, who dies, who tells your story I know that we can win I know that greatness lies in you But remember from here on in History has its eyes on you Whoa Whoa History has its eyes on you
I've witnessed those one night stands Must have played in a thousand bands But I'm just here tonight, tomorrow I'll be gone Seen folks show their blacker sides Seen them die just for foolish pride And those drivers always ask to hear that same old song That's a big ten-four From your back door Just put that hammer down This young man feels Those eighteen wheels That keep turning 'round to take me down to shaky town I've heard all those hard luck tales From all of you u.s. males I've heard you tell those lies about the love you've know And I've followed those highway signs And I've run down those thin white lines Like those drivers this old road is all I call my own That's a big ten-four From your back door Just put that hammer down This young man feels Those eighteen wheels That keep turning 'round to take me down to shaky town
She came on to him like a slow moving cold front His beer was warmer that the look in her eye She sat on the stool, and she said "What do you want She said Give me a love that don't freeze up inside He said, I have melted some hearts in my time dear But to sit next to you Lord I shiver and shake And if I knew love, well I don't think I'd be here Askin' myself if I had what it takes To melt your icy blue heart Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears These days we all play cool calm and collected Our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze But under the frost, wee thought he detected A warm blush of red, and the touch of her knee He said you're a beauty like I've never witnessed And I've seen the northern lights dance in the air I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss And there's not enough heat in the fires burning there To melt your icy blue heart Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears To melt your icy blue heart
As they were dancing in the evening And the light shone through the trees This girl my eye was following Asked the band to play her a beat Singin' she'd do that long time jerk She hit me where it hurts Ohhh your heart Now my heart will burst Oh no Ah, but it took me back to that wonderland I witnessed long ago Babbling words of preachers Sayin'- "Don't bury me no more" Ohh... And I've forgotten how to worry And I don't know how to run Against the odds I realize This struggle could be won!
I grew up in your hometown, at I least began to grow I hadn't had to my first shave before the body blow Egyptians in courtyard, my family in chains You witnessed our abduction which probably explains How I know you How I know you Until that fateful morning my family enjoyed A privileged existence, for my father was employed As advisor to the king, no less, which surely rings a bell For as you are his daughter, you probably can tell How I know you How I know you Enough of reminiscence, and such happy memories The reason why I know you is really none of these You cannot hide your royalty, although you hide your face I know you were a princess, in any time and place Yes I know you How I know you Yes I know you How I know you
The possible dream Finale of seem The moment that some call eternal that some call insane Now helmets on each head awaiting the first lead The pageant is named the pencil rain The infantry stands And holds out its hands The marshal's binoculars focus and skyward they train They're searching the yonder blue They look out for number two The heraldry of the pencil rain And now hear the roar that none can ignore The thunderous clatter of splintering wood and lives that are claimed And none who have witnessed all Can think of a nobler cause than perishing in the pencil rain The pencil rain The pencil rain The pencil rain
On a boulevard in Paris I met a good old friend of mine "Come on over to my place bring yourself and a bottle of wine" So I put on my leathers and I tried to look my best but I was apprehensive I noticed I was the only guest It was then I witnessed something I'd never seen some satisfaction dancin' alone dancin' alone listen There's a white house in Georgia down the Mason-Dixon line They got Kentucky Derby winners there They got a Lear jet parked outside Yeah but every Friday weekend when the big tom cat's away you'll find the plantation shakin' by the butler and the upstairs maid Don't need no money, diamonds or cadillacs to get all the satisfaction dancin' alone dancin' alone dancin' alone Don't you worry 'bout the problems of the human race get some satisfaction dancin' alone dancin' alone baby Listen to this At a hot spot in Texas on an endless Friday night I was listenin' to Waylon and Willie when a cowgirl passed my sights and I took a look in the mirror to make sure that my head was screwed on I was feeling rejected but I wasn't going home In a moment of a rash decision I threw myself right on the floor I did a backflip and somersault Yeah, the crowd called for more So if you're tired of watching being left on the shelf get your satisfaction dancin' alone dancin' alone, dancin' alone dancin' alone, dancin' alone dancin' alone baby
There just ain't no reason for the way that I feel The way that I feel, but I'm feeling good Lately things just ain't been going quite like they should Quite like they should, but I still feel good Let me explain that I witnessed the end of the world Like someone had hurled all the weight on me I couldn't see from my funeral walk just what I needed Just what I needed, but I couldn't see I spent the last few weeks with a chip on my shoulder I thought that I was alone with my tragedy (I couldn't take it) But if I see myself like an actor in a play, It makes me feel better I'm not the only one Who doesn't get his way
There to dwell In adamantine chains and penal fire Who durst defy the omnipotent to arms Nine times the space that measures day and night Rolling in the fiery gulf Confounded though immortal, but his doom Reserved him to more wrath, for now the thought Both of lost happiness and lasting pain Torments him; round he throws his baleful eyes That witnessed huge affliction and dismay Mixed with obdurate pride and steadfast hate At once as far as angels ken he views The dismal situation waste and wild A dungeon horrible, on all sides round Regions of sorrow Doleful shades, where peace and rest can never dwell Hope never comes that comes to all But torture without end still urges As one great furnace flamed Yet from those flames, no light But rather, darkness visible
