OneRepublic - Good Life Lyrics

OneRepublic - Good Life Video

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
Little high, little low
Anyway the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me
To me
 
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
 
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body's aching all the time
Goodbye everybody, I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooh (Any way the wind blows)
I don't wanna die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
 
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?
Thunderbolts and lightning, very, very frightening me
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Figaro
Magnifico (Oh, oh, oh, oh!)
I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah! No!
We will not let you go (Let him go!)
Bismillah! We will not let you go (Let him go!)
Bismillah! We will not let you go (Let me go!)
Will not let you go (Let me go!) (Never, never, never, never, never let me go!)
Will not let you go (Let me go!)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Oh, mamma mia, mamma mia
Mamma mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me
For me
For me!
 
So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?
Oh baby, can't do this to me baby
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right out of here
 
Ooh
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
 
Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters, nothing really matters to me
 
Any way the wind blows

Offspring - Pay The Man Lyrics

Offspring - Pay The Man Video

See the way the wind blows.
Lives are intertwined.
Watch the way the world goes.
The man deals out our plight.
 
Jester in the corner
Laughs without a sound,
Jester in the corner...
Malady abounds
In our souls...
In our souls...
In our souls...
 
See the way the sun sets.
Twilight of this life.
The man is making little bets,
Playing with our lives.
 
All that I believe now,
Anything is possible.
A simple explanation
For the evil in this world
And in our souls...
In our souls...
In our souls...
In our souls...
 
Come down to sorry and sable
It's always the man
It's always been keeping you down!
 
Bow down cause I see it before me
Shadow and light
That always keeps you running
 
Shut up! You talk too much!
Pay the man now, yeah!
Shut up! You talk too much!
No! No! No!
 
Look at you and your struggle for freedom
But you ain't nothing
We all pay the man for living
 
Wouldn't it be nice for a change now
To be unchained?
My life is for me now
But this is life!
This is life!
This is life!
This is life!
Pay the man!
No!
Pay the man!
No!
 
Shut up! You talk too much!
Pay the man now, yeah!
Shut up! You talk too much!
 
Shut up! You talk too much!
Pay the man now, yeah.
 
My life is for me...

Nelly - My Place Lyrics

Nelly - My Place Video

I use to pride myself on bein' the other man
But now it's flipped and I don't want you with no other man
Why can't you understand that anything I'm offerin'
I gave you the world, but you just wanted arguin'
From the time I picked you up until the time I dropped you off again
Even flipped out on me at the mall again
It's all his fault again, that's what you're tellin' all ya friends
I ain't pointin' fingers ma, I just wanna call again
See how ya day going, I know they stressing on ya
I know them times get hard, that's why I'm checkin' on ya

Come on ova to my place (my place) (my place) (ooo naw)
Won't you sit yaself down and take a seat
And let me ease your mind girl
We gon do it our way (ooo naw) (aww yeah)
 
I heard your friend that told a friend that told a friend of mine
That you was thinkin' that we should do it one more time
If this ain't the truth, then hopefully it's not a lie
'Cause I ain't got no issues with hittin' that another time
We never had a problem gettin' it done
Disagreed upon a lot ma, but the sex wasn't one
And check it, I know you get excited (still) when I come 'round and bite it (girl)
Quit frontin' and quit actin' like you don't like it
 
I like it, I like it, I really, really like it
I want it, adore it, so come let me enjoy it
 
When we laugh or we cry it's together
Through the rain and the stormiest weather
We gon still be as one it's foreva, it's foreva
 
Won't you come on and go with me (come and go with me baby) (ooo girl)
Come on ova to my place (my place) (my place) (ooo naw)
Won't you sit yaself down and take a seat
And let me ease your mind girl
We gon do it our way (ooo naw) (aww yeah)
 
Shawty where ya been (girl, where ya been)
Feels like a long time, long, long time since I seen ya, yes it has girl
Well, I know I said some fucked up things to you before
But girl, you know I didn't mean it (I'm sorry)
I never meant one single word
If I could take back every word I would and more fo' sho'
If I thought that you would believe it (would you believe it?)
(Hey girl) 'Cause you make my life so convenient for me
 
When we laugh or we cry it's together
Through the rain and the stormiest weather
We gon still be as one it's foreva, it's foreva

N Sync - Gone Lyrics

N Sync - Gone Video

There's a thousand words that I could say
To make you come home, yeah
Oh, seems so long ago you walked away
Left me alone
And I remember what you said to me
You were acting so strange mhhmm
And maybe I was too blind to see
That you needed a change
 
Was it something I said to make you turn away?
To make you walk out and leave me cold
If I could just find a way,
To make it so that you were right here,
Right now
 
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I've drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains you're...
Gone (x5)
 
Now,I don't wanna make excuses, baby
Won't change the fact that you're gone no,no
But if there's something that I could do
Won't you please let me know?
Time is passing so slowly now
Guess that's my life without you
And maybe I could change my every day
But baby I don't want to
 
So I'll just hang around
And find some things to do
To take my mind off missing you
And I know in my heart
You can't say that you don't love me too
Please say you do
 
Yeeaah....
 
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I Drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains you're...
Gone (x5)
 
What will I do if I can't be with you?
Tell me where will I turn to baby who will I be?
Now that we are apart
Am I still in your heart?
Baby why don't you see?
That I need you here with me
Oohhh...
 
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I've drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains (x2)
Gone (x5)
 
But the truth remains you're...

Maxwell - Silently Lyrics

Maxwell - Silently Video

Look at you
You look fine
How do you do?
Been a while
Sittin' alone in your room
Been around, but haven't found
No one like you (no one like you)
Don't you know, girl,
There's no one like you
When you hear me (baby)
Hear my emotions
Sweep slowly
Here with your heart, baby
Don't speak
Now with your soul tell me
Si...lent...ly
 
Tell me
You know each thought
Thought or word
You see me through (you see me through)
Sorry now (sorry now)
That I ever doubted you
I don't know what I can do
To make you come true
Think that you should know
There's no one like you
And I'll do
Heart with your mind and
Heart and mine times the soul
Mine times the soul
 
There's no one like you when you...
Hear me, baby
My emotions sweep slowly, slowly
Here with your heart, baby
Don't speak
Now with your soul tell me
Si...lent...tly
Tell me
Si...lent...ly
My baby...
 
Love the way you
Heart
With your mind and
Heart
My body's so
Few in control
You got to know
I'm willin' to show you
If you want to know (know) me
Hear my emotions sweep slow... (slow) ...ly (slowly)
Here with your heart, baby
Don't speak
Here intertwined we move
Si...lent...ly
Tell me
Si...lent...ly
(Don't speak, don't you speak)
Sweep slowly
Here what you want with me
Don't speak
Say with your heart
Si...lent...ly
Tell me
Si...lent...ly
Oooh, oo-ooh...

LL Cool J - 10 Million Stars Lyrics

LL Cool J - 10 Million Stars Video

Verse 1
You can call it a comeback
I lay back analyse the vibes and realize to own that crown for lyrical combat
Spit raw raps to count more stacks
Kicking back in the coop I got loots relax
I'm hotness monotonous fans is running bizack
L please don't leave the game like thizat
Never in a million years, hell I never let you down baby
I drop 50 I'm still gravy
 
Chorus repeat
 
And I look back on Venus i look, i look back on Mars
And, and I burn in the fire of ten, of ten million stars
(guess who's back)
 
Verse 2
I'm more than a conqueror double up your bets
Come and rumble with the bets I know you had that clown picked
Mind blowing now 'cos L still sound sick
You dreamed he was me I gleam lyrically
I love 'em for it's the highest form of flattery
Doing the buck ten chrome skating on the battery
My clutch burning on top of the world turning
Rookies is just learning 'bout stacks I been earning
I'm the uncle L teacher of the funk
Turn my joint up find out why I'm different from all these chumps
And tell your favourite rapper that I'm ready to thump
For real cat that represented rap from the jump.
 
Chorus repeat
 
Verse 3
Six figure inches on the cheddar for music, fashion, film or tele
Vision popping amaretto so what you got a vendetta
I never felt better now and forever competition gets severed by skills
You can't measure I'm a champ you a peon I kiss the ring be
Gone known and respected on every block you be on
And be on stand there get yo md on I chuckle cause it's
Noting to waist energy on there you have it
The uncut raw for rap addicts waited three years to see if L still had it
Ten million stars got beef to the jet ended my contract I'm the last on
Left
 
Chorus
 
Bridge repeat
L's worth paper past def jam who put em' up in that sky paper
There's my dogs up in'05 who made a major LL player
Now who's next to need a favor drop a bomb on 'em
 
And i look back on venus, i look, (i look back on venus)i look back on mars
(i look back on mars and i burn with the fire of ten million stars)

Imagine Dragons - Fallen Lyrics

Imagine Dragons - Fallen Video

Run for cover
My sense of fear is running thin
Undercover
Just like a candle in the wind
 
Tell everybody, tell everybody
Brothers, sisters, the ending is coming
 
Ohhhhh
We are fallen, we are fallen
Ohhhhh
We are fallen, we are fallen
Now we're just gonna ride it out
 
Every morning
I'm staring shadows in the eye
Oh, good morning
Will you just wait until I die?
 
Tell everybody, tell everybody
Brothers, sisters, the ending is coming
 
Ohhhhh
We are fallen, we are fallen
Ohhhhh
We are fallen, we are fallen
Now we're just gonna ride it out
 
Tell everybody, tell everybody
Tell everybody, we are fallen
Ohhhhh

Even when your fire runs out
Will you start it up again?

Everlast - Broken Lyrics

Everlast - Broken Video

You're the air that I breathe
The sun when it breaks through the clouds
You're all that I need
But I know that you're having some doubts
I'm down on my knees
I pray that you'll stick this out
Beggin' you please girl
I'm sorry I let you down
 
I'm broken like a promise
I'm shattered like a dream
I'm broken with all my pieces scattered 'round for you to see
I'm broken like a record
I sing the same old song
I'm broken like the heart of a man that's run away from love too long
Girl what about you
What about you girl
 
It's so hard to speak
I can barely look you in the eye
It's so hard to breathe
I know I ain't afraid to die
Your breath is so sweet
Your kisses could get me high
My heart is so weak
But your loving could get me by
 
I'm broken like a promise
I'm shattered like a dream
I'm broken with all my pieces scattered 'round for you to see
I'm broken like a record
I sing the same old song
I'm broken like the heart of a man that's run away from love too long
Girl what about you
What about you girl
 
I'm broken like a promise
I'm shattered like a dream
I'm broken with all my pieces scattered 'round for you to see
I'm broken like record
I sing the same old song
I'm broken like the heart of a man that's run away from love too long
Girl what about you
What about you girl
Girl what about you
What about you girl
Girl what about you

Depeche Mode - Policy Of Truth Lyrics

Depeche Mode - Policy Of Truth Video

You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you?
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put through
 
It's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth
 
Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilized
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only lied
 
It's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth
 
Never again is what you swore
The time before
Never again is what you swore
The time before
 
Now you're standing there, tongue tied
You'd better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell
 
You'll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truth
 
Never again is what you swore
The time before
Never again is what you swore
The time before
