Lyrics:
the wire
They say that the road ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line it's been you and me
And lovin' a music man ain't always what it's
tricked you good
Well must've done something in another life, right
When I'm gone, my name carved in stone
And that dash between the years, is all I
It's Decoration Day.
And I've a mind to roll a stone on his grave.
But what would he say.
Keeping me down, boy, won't keep me away.
It's Decoration
The gods are with me
I will protect the family
I will protect all human being
I will make the stones flying
Super powers are within me
I will protect
on deck
They gave cuz seven flat, how many niggas goin' rat
Check my tats, ya never heard of dis ya suppose to man
It had to fair, now I meet the family
niggas gon rat
Check my tats, ya neva heard of dis ya suppose to man
It had to fair, now I meet da family and dem, it packed at Madison Square
I had
the Rolling Stones
I thought, "That's it, I'll get a band
I'm leaving home, I'm out on the road"
The motorways all over this land
(The road)
Far away
In the shadow of silence they stood by
Watching as the mother's actions made children cry
They saw the pain they saw the tears
But in their silence
I'm heading for a life in the land of the free
Sending every penny home to the family
Off to find fortunes that can't be bought
Now Paddy's struck
Dorothy
And Harry
In Carmen Jones
Like Sly and the Family Stone
Classic
Like the Mona Lisa
Julius Caesar
The Roman Empire
Michelin Tires
Classic flavor
Like
still alive
Days gone by, I watch my friends and family die
I watch my friends and family die
other
Or how we sisters and brothers
Cover the land in corners of poems and stone
Go hard with it, let em know you God with it
Even though I authored
It's all about the good life.
It's all about the good times, yeah.
It's all about my people.
It's all about this family affair
Uh
You got it locked
(And live a little)
When friends come and go
This family is stone
You'll always be with me no matter where I go
Wherever we are
Just look
They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line, it's been you and me
And loving a music man
Ain't all it's supposed to be
Doors and eyes
Yawning wide
It passes time by dreaming
Days when it held a heart
And a family
No reason why
To know the reason why
No reason
Laughter's
of the answers to share
To protect the black men from cancer and hell
Bring back the black family affair, oh
Protect the black parents in here
Oh I wish the black
Years gone by a family torn
Polarized hearts memories worn
Fingers pointed words unkind
Forgotten reasons lost in time
Where did we go wrong in this
again
I knew that our love had to end
But now it's gone so very far
That I can make a brand new start
I thought that we were meant to be
Be one big family
When you out with the family
She get it poppin' right there in the mall
Fuck with a bitch is definite
Better watch who you stepping with
Fuck
the wire
They say that the road ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line, it's been you and me
And lovin' a music man ain't always what it's
grandmother
Or your grandfather
Trust nobody
Don't trust your girl or your girl's girl friend
Period
Indicted by closest friends (indicted by closest
dealers
All in the same light now you're like
"Is this what God's handing me?"
Take it and run, son
You're feeding your family
Flash the heat and you speak
king
But funny laughing joking is no more his thing.
Consumed by greed he banished his wife
Crying little children begging for their life
Now his family
