Lyrics:
the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the engineers would see him sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
The people passing by
the house that means nobody is safe
How can a reverend preach, when a rev can't define
The music of our youth from 1979
We rap by what we see, meaning
go go Johnny go go go Johnny be Goode
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Sit beside the tree by the railroad track
The engineer would see him
?
Way back then I was bitter, was unused my music is litter, so mad and I'm mad I got jitters
Didn't consider that in a second I would be bigger,
I think I know what you mean, but watch what you say
'Cause they'll be tryin' to knock you down in some way
Sometimes it feels like the world is
it's for the ghetto (yeah)
It's for the ghetto (uh) man it's for the ghetto (yeah)
Leanin' dipped in rocks, pump the joint on the block
Behind
Yeah, yeah, can you turn up my headphones?
Yeah-yeah, yeah
This music go with my funeral, yeah, yeah
Music go with my funeral, a-hem, yeah, I said
Confusin' my enemies, never losin'
Clever movement, act smooth where the women be
Amused by my energy when they choose me
I just tell them the music's my
and take your time
I want you deep inside
So put it here, yeah, baby
Open your eyes and let me groove you
The music in my mic can move you
Like
a belly full of cars
All for something lacy
Some girl's going to see that dress
And crave that day like crazy
Little Indian kids on a bridge up in
up in Canada
They can balance and they can climb
Like their fathers before them
They'll walk the girders of the Manhattan skyline
Shine your light
Words and music by Bob Hartman
Based on 1 Peter 3:15, 2 Timothy 4:2
Enough of the sidelines, gotta get in the game
When nothing is ventured, nothing
Words and music by John Kay, Rocket Ritchotte and Michael Wilk
Runnin' wild, trouble round the corner
The story of your life
You got your bruises
to the untouchable world
Opening my window
Cold breeze grey skies clouds passing by
By
By
By
(In the Rain Drop)
When its dripping and dropping
And rain is not
Let the devil out
Let it break, make it go like, alright
See the sins, it begins by my whole night
Don't let it drown in your deepest
Let it all fly
It's just Me against the world
Yeah I'm by Myself
Its me and my girl
I don't need no help
For someone Who's "irrelevant"
Y 'all give me lots
tryna get on
And imma have you by my side
With me is where you belong, so
Don't you worry bout the pain that you been through
You and the music are
My mind state somewhere else,
I’ve been tripping, I done fell,
I don’t know what’s gon come into my view but I can tell,
By the scent by the smell,
giving me health
Walk in this bitch by myself
Cop me some new shit bitch just all by myself
I keep my business yea to myself
I got to keep my shit stealth
to tell the truth
Just barely by is how I'm getting
Hi! I might smile when I'm in your face
I'm just getting by
Feels like I don't fit any place
Don't know
I am sitting downtown by the river
We are waiting for today's sundown
We are having our beer by the river
We're all happy to live in this town
We
And in years it won't be, it's a piece of your past
You either feel nostalgic, or treat it as crap
But that's by the by cos a white kid that liked to write
time I fucked up N can’t explain why
But ion know when I got a real one that by my side
I hold her tight N look her in the eyes
I play games that hurt
Your like I know right
So why not begin
This whole life we go by
It's go time again
So why not begin
It's go time again
Your like I know right
So why
