Lyrics:
I woke up feeling the sunshine
Drift across my face
It took me back to emotions
From another time and place
Those yesterdays
Cruising in my
I wanted the gold, and I got it --
Came out with a fortune last fall, --
Yet somehow life's not what I thought it,
And somehow the gold isn't all.
There are those who can live
With the things they don't believe in
They are giving up their lives
For something that is less than it can be
somebody, somewhere who's feelin' it too
Hurtin' inside, goin' through the motions, it's so hard to live
So many feelin' so lonely, when they got so much
Good times and bad
Seen them both
Hope fly out the window
Fortune walk through the door
Learned not to believe
This is as good as it gets
Oh...
Oh...
You can buy most anything out there on the street
Some things cost a fortune, gems and jewels so sweet
You can buy a ticket
Working on your own time
Laid back and laughin'
Oh, no, oh, no
Headlights, make it home by sundown
Feeling that the day is through
Return back
through the sky in that pink Cadillac
While the boys of the Press, we drink vodka in back
And she tells us our fortune by crumbling leaves
And she
question, nigga, how does it feel?
Check your game, but I ain't even sayin' no names
Proclaimed lyricist dissin' us for fortune and fame
Did I do somethin'
Take comfort where you see it
Whatever makes it right
Take comfort when you need it
To help you through the night
By the way we live in our
of you)
And everybody warning you about it (Hey!)
And once you taste it, you can't live
Ooh it's the lights (It's the lights, you're blinded by the)
they'll admit it when we're gone
Just let our spirits live on
Through our lyrics that you hear in our songs and we can
Sing with me, (sing), sing for
You Only Live Twice or so it seems,
One life for yourself and one for your dreams.
You drift through the years and life seems tame,
Till one
Wishin' we could have that time back
Oh we can, yo man, rewind that
You never gone, you live forever through song
I feel it when I seem 'em with them Dilla
We'd fight or die, but we wouldn't shirk
Eight months we fought and eight months we starved
We stood by Larkin through thick and thin
But foodless
and dried
Primped and polished till you glow with pride
Trust my recipe for instant bride
You'll bring honor to us all
Wait and see
When we're through
I have a mansion, forget the price
Ain't never been there, they tell me it's nice
I live in hotels, tear out the walls
I have accountants pay for
Hmm, let me go
To see my family
Please Father let me go
As my mother sleeps
Ooh (life)
I don't know about James Bond but 'round here nobody
Even though we're gonna go through the fire and back again
I can reach another star if you stand by me
I can hold it in my hand, feel it's energy
I
Never knew what love was all about
James Moody would you come on hit me, you can blow now if you want to, we're through
The doors lift from the floor and the tops come off
By any means necessary, whatever the cost
Even if it means lives is lost
And I can't explain why I just
where James Palmy dwells
A knight of solitude, avoiding sunlight's spells
His armor gleams, untouched by daylight's touch
A recluse in the dark, he
Like a bird out of prison
That's taken it's flight
Like the blind man that God
Gave back his sight
Like the poor wretched beggar that
Found fortune
thought I found it all when I found her
Shopping sprees on whatever coast
How'd you really feel, I may never know
And as I ride through these streets
