Darius Rucker - Take Me Home Lyrics

Darius Rucker - Take Me Home Video

I wanna feel that ocean breeze that's got me wrapped around it's fingers
I wanna hear a southern drawl and every word that lingers
I need a sunday morning song by a just got baptized singer
I been away too long, somebody take me home
 
I need a glass of sweet sun tea brewed out in the backyard
I wanna see a kudzu vine sneaking up on a junk car
I need to sit on my old back porch 'til the world lets go of my arm
I been away too long, oh somebody take me home
 
Lord have mercy on a poor boy's soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
Can you get me there by the morning light
And make everything alright
'Cause I been away too long
Oh somebody take me home
 
I love this job, I do
But my soul is wearing thin
Oh I gotta get lost in where I'm from
And find myself again
Oh I been away too long
Somebody take me home
 
I wanna waste a day with my little man throwing me that old football
Soend sometime with Daddy's girls catching up on what's going on
Then remind the woman I love just how much I miss her when I'm gone
 
Oh Lord have mercy on a poor boy's soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
Can you get me there by morning light
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
I wanna be there by morning light
It'll make everything alright
Cause I've been away too long
Oh, I've been away too long
I been away too long
Somebody please, somebody take me home
Oh home, home, home

Cinderella - If You Don't Like It Video

I don't need anyone
To tell me how to run my life

I've got my mind made up know what I wanna do

Gonna send a word or two your way
So just sit back take a ride on your pony

If you don't like it I don't care
If you don't like it
Hit the road cause I just don't care

Britney Spears - I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman Lyrics

Britney Spears - I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman Video

I used to think
I had the answers to everything
But now I know
Life doesn't always
Go my way, yeah...
Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realize...
 
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
 
I'm not a girl
There is no need to protect me
Its time that I
Learn to face up to this on my own
I've seen so much more than u know now
Don't tell me to shut my eyes
 
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
 
I'm not a girl
But if u look at me closely
You will see it my eyes
This girl will always find
Her way
 
I'm not a girl
(I'm not a girl don't tell me what to believe)
Not Yet a woman
(I'm just tryin to find the woman in me, yeah)
All I need is time (All I need)
A moment that is mine (That is mine)
While I'm in between
 
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time (All I need)
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between
 
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman

Bonnie Tyler - Sem Limites Pra Sonhar (Duet With Fabio Jr.) Lyrics

Bonnie Tyler - Sem Limites Pra Sonhar (Duet With Fabio Jr.) Video

Ha uma chance da gente se encontrar
Ha uma ponte pra nos dois em algum lugar
Quando homem e mulher
Se tocam num olhar
Nao ha forca que os separe
 
Ha uma porta que um de nos vai ter que abrir
Ha um beijo que ninguem vai impedir
Quando homem e mulher
Se deixam levar
E facil viver mais
 
Ha uma estacao
Onde o trem tem que parar
To na contramao
Te esperando pra voltar
Pra poder seguir
 
Sem limites pra sonhar
Pois e so assim
Que se pode inventar o amor
 
There's a story which is waiting for the heart to write
I'm going crazy here, just wanting you to close up the night
When the love in a woman
Finds the love in a man
There's nothing too precious to hold it
 
The door is open for the first time when your heart returns
In the silence of a kiss we will burn
When the heat in a woman
Finds the heat in a man
The flame burns forever
 
There'll come a time, my love, when the searching has to end
I'm on the wrong-way street, I need more than just a friend
And I'm standing here, just trying to touch the stars
Nothing else to lose when you're reaching for the infinite heart

Beanie Sigel - Remember Them Days Video

(Beanie)
Yeah, uh it's all good now
It's all good now

We out the hood now

Who thought we'd see the day when we'd put our feet up
Lay back, exhale, put the heat up
No stress, no scale, no jail could keep us
Only case we catching now would be a misdemeanor
Remember we used to hustle thinking life would cheat us
Not knowing if we struggled life would treat us
Think on how mommy carried us
Where life gon lead us?
Knowing if we getting married
Our wife will need us
If at one time you could look into my mind
When I close my eyes and remember them times
No gas, had a hot plate heat our dinners
No cash, most nights ate sleep for dinner
Welfare and white landlord, that life ain't easy
The only ones moving up was George and Weezy
All my sugar water babies who live in autos, it's crazy
Keep it in the dark, I'mma speak it from the heart
 
(Eve)
Remember dem days
Livin' all days in doubt
Remember dem days
Thinking there's no way out
Remember dem days
Not knowing which way to route

All of us under the covers
Remember dem days
Heating up the house with the oven
Remember dem days
Thinking that life ain't love us, come on
It's all good now

(Beanie)
Remember kids who run the block
You never thought they would get harmed
Only time our block got wet was when the sprinklers were on
Think about that time dawg that wasn't long
Now that we got kids think when we was born
Coming up in my hood was hard
Every day my mom cooked with lard
Fucked up I couldn't feed myself
Living life no means of wealth
Eating shit I can't believe myself
That's not a joke
Man I was dealt these cards and I played dem out
Yeah the road was rough but I made a route
Now picture running extension cords from your neighbor's house
To get lights, fuck Max on the latest routes
Used to close my eyes try to fade it out
Dumb niggas in the hood think I made it out
Man that showed me just where they mental at
And tell me half of these cats ain't been through jack
 
(Eve)
Remember dem days
Livin' all days in doubt
Remember dem days
Thinking there's no way out
Remember dem days
Not knowing which way to route
It's all good now
We out the hood now
Remember dem days
All of us under the covers
Remember dem days
Heating up the house with the oven
Remember dem days
Thinking that life ain't love us, come on
It's all good now
We out the hood now
 
(Beanie)
Yo every day I think Deke and Rola
>From introducing me to Dame and Hovah
Ever since that day I met Jay
Man I knew my pain was over
They let me in this game it's over
Mom I know I put you through hell
But now I'm gonna order you heaven
No more temporary layoffs like Florida Evans
Ain't no good times about dat there
Your boy rhyme now, it's fine now
We out dat there
Fuck that Access car
I'mma work extra hard
To turn that into a platinum express car
You can have sweet dreams at night
Your boy ain't out there with dem toys and them pings at night
All dem cracks and the gats left that life alone
It's the tracks and the raps and the microphone
Wish y'all would fuck that up now
Shit it's all good now
We out the hood now
 
(Eve)
Remember dem days
Livin' all days in doubt
Remember dem days
Thinking there's no way out
Remember dem days
Not knowing which way to route

Heating up the house with the oven

Avril Lavigne - He Wasn't Lyrics

Avril Lavigne - He Wasn't Video

There's not much going on today
I'm really bored, it's getting late
What happened to my Saturday?
Monday's coming, the day I hate
 
Sit on my bed alone
Staring at the phone
 
He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought
No, he wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
He isn't really what I'm looking for
 
This is when I start to bite my nails
And clean my room when all else fails
I think it's time for me to bail
This point of view is getting stale
 
Sit on my bed alone
Staring at the phone
 
He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought
No, he wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
He isn't really what I'm looking for
 
Na na na na na, we've all got choices
Na na na na, we've all got voices
Na na na na na, stand up make some noise
Na na na na, stand up make some noise
 
Sit on my bed alone
Staring at the phone
 
He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought
No, he wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
He isn't really what I'm looking for
He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought
No, he wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
Like I was special, 'Cause I was special
 
Na na na na na

Alicia Keys - Wake Up Lyrics

Alicia Keys - Wake Up Video

You Used to be my closest ally
In this cold, cold world of deception and lies
We would defend and protect one another
Now I can't tell if we're enemies or lovers
 
(bridge)
So who's gonna rescue us from ourselves
 
(chorus)
When we gonna wake up, baby
It's time for lovin
When we gonna wake up, my baby
Before it's too late
 
Oh Oh Baby, where did we go wrong baby
Did this cold, cold world turn us into stone
Well, now all I battle is your ego and your pride
It's ticking like a time bomb ready to ignight
Hurtin' me to fight
 
Bridge & Chorus
 
Chorus
 
When the smoke clears
What will be left for us but tears and pain
Why must we argue over the same things
Just to make up and go back again
It's never to late it isn't too long
Can't get it right when no one thinks they're wrong
Gotta get outta bed
And take a look at what's goin on
 
Chorus
(Repeat 3xs)
 
Oh baby
(Wake Up)
Oh Darlin
(Wake Up)
When we gonna wake Up
(wake Up)
When we gonna take a look and see
(Wake Up)
What's goin on
(Wake Up)
Oh What's goin on
(Wake Up)
Cause we're wastin so much time
(Wake Up)
And we're bout to lose it all
(wake Up)
O baby, baby, baby
(wake Up)
Said I need you baby
Oh I need my baby home
Bring my baby back to me
(wake up.......out)

Wu-Tang Clan - C.R.E.A.M. Lyrics

Wu-Tang Clan - C.R.E.A.M. Video

(Intro: Raekwon the Chef, Method Man)
 
What that nigga want God?
Word up, look out for the cops (Wu-Tang five finger shit)
(Cash Rules) Word up, two for fives over here baby
Word up, two for fives them niggaz got garbage down the way, word up
KnowhatI'msayin?
(Cash Rules Everything Around Me
C. R. E. A. M. get...)
Yeah, check this ol fly shit out
Word up
(Cash Rules Everything Around Me) Take you on a natural joint
(C. R. E. A. M. get the money) Here we here we go
(Dolla dolla bill y'all) Check this shit, yo!
 
(Verse One: Raekwon the Chef)
I grew up on the crime side, the New York Times side
Staying alive was no jive
At second hands, moms bounced on old men
So then we moved to Shaolin land
A young youth, yo rockin the gold tooth, 'Lo goose
Only way, I begin to gee off was drug loot
And let's start it like this son, rollin with this one
And that one, pullin out gats for fun
But it was just a dream for the teen, who was a fiend
Started smokin woolies at sixteen
And running up in gates, and doing hits for high stakes
Making my way on fire escapes
No question I would speed, for cracks and weed
The combination made my eyes bleed
No question I would flow off, and try to get the dough all
Sticking up white boys in ball courts
My life got no better, same damn 'Lo sweater
Times is ruff and tuff like leather
Figured out I went the wrong route
So I got with a sick ass click and went all out
Catchin keys from across seas
Rollin in MPV's, every week we made forty G's
Yo nigga respect mine, or anger the TEC-9
Ch-chick-POW! Move from the gate now
 
(Chorus: Method Man)
Cash Rules Everything Around Me
C. R. E. A. M Get the money, dollar, dollar bill y'all
Cash Rules Everything Around Me
C. R. E. A. M Get the money, dollar, dollar bill y'all
 
(Verse Two: Inspector Deck)
It's been twenty-two long hard years of still strugglin
Survival got me buggin, but I'm alive on arrival
I peep at the shape of the streets
And stay awake to the ways of the world, cause shit is deep
A man with a dream with plans to make C. R. E. A. M
Which failed; I went to jail at the age of 15
A young buck sellin drugs and such who never had much
Trying to get a clutch at what I could not... could not...
The court played me short, now I face incarceration
Pacin' going up state's my destination
Handcuffed in back of a bus, forty of us
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
But as the world turns I learned life is hell
Living in the world no different from a cell
Everyday I escape from Jakes givin chase, sellin base
Smokin bones in the staircase
Though I don't know why I chose to smoke cess
I guess, that's the time when I'm not depressed
But I'm still depressed, and I ask, what's it worth?
Ready to give up so I seek the Old Earth
Who explained working hard may help you maintain
To learn to overcome the heartaches and pain
We got stickup kids, corrupt cops and crack rocks
And stray shots, all on the block that stays hot
Leave it up to me while I be living proof
To kick the truth to the young black youth
But shorty's running wild smokin cess, drinkin beer
And ain't trying to hear what I'm kickin in his ear
Neglected, but now, but yo, it gots to be accepted
That what? That life is hectic
 
Cash Rules Everything Around Me

Word up, we gotta get over, straight up and down

Tupac - I Ain't Mad At Cha Lyrics

Tupac - I Ain't Mad At Cha Video

Change, shit
I guess change is good for any of us
Whatever it take for any of y'all niggaz to get up out the hood
Shit, I'm wit cha, I ain't mad at cha
Got nuttin but love for ya, do your thing boy
 
Yeah, all the homies that I ain't talk to in a while
I'ma send this one out for y'all, nahmean?
Cause I ain't mad at cha
Heard y'all tearin up shit out there, kickin up dust
(Danny Boy) I ain't...
Givin a motherfuck, heheheheheh
Yeah, niggaz
(Danny Boy) ...mad at cha
Cause I ain't mad at cha
 
Verse One: 2Pac
 
Now we was once two niggaz of the same kind
Quick to holla at a hoochie with the same line
You was just a little smaller but you still roll
Got stretched to Y.A. and hit the hood swoll
Member when you had a jheri curl didn't quite learn
On the block, witcha glock, trippin off sherm
Collect calls to the tip, sayin how ya changed
Oh you a Muslim now, no more dope game
Heard you might be comin home, just got bail
Wanna go to the mosque, don't wanna chase tail
It seems I lost my little homie he's a changed man
Hit the pen and now no sinnin is the game plan
When I talk about money all you see is the struggle
When I tell you I'm livin large you tell me it's trouble
Congratulation on the weddin, I hope your wife know
She got a playa for life, and that's no bullshitin
I know we grew apart, you probably don't remember
I used to fiend for your sister, but never went up in her
And I can see us after school, we'd BOMB
On the first motherfucker with the wrong shit on
Now the whole shit's changed, and we don't even kick it
Got a big money scheme, and you ain't even with it
Hmm, knew in my heart you was the same motherfucker that'd
Go toe to toe when it's time to roll, you got a brother's back
And I can't even trip, cause I'm just laughin at cha
You tryin hard to maintain, then go head
Cause I ain't mad at cha
(Hmm, I ain't mad at cha)
 
Chorus: Danny Boy
 
I ain't, mad, at cha (2Pac: I ain't mad at cha)
I ain't, mad, at cha
 
Verse Two: 2Pac
 
We used to be like distant cousins, fightin, playin dozens
Whole neighborhood buzzin, knowin, that we wasn't
Used to catch us on the roof or behind the stairs
I'm gettin blitzed and I reminsce on all the times we shared
Besides bumpin n grindin wasn't nothin on our mind
In time we learned to live a life of crime
Rewind us back, to a time was much too young to know
I caught a felony lovin the way the guns blow
And even though we seperated, you said that you'd wait
Don't give nobody no coochie while I be locked up state
I kiss my Mama goodbye, and wipe the tears from her lonely eyes
Said I'll return but I gotta fight the fate's arrived
Don't shed a tear, cause Mama I ain't happy here
I'm through trial, no more smiles, for a couple years
They got me goin' mad, I'm knockin busters on they backs
In my cell, thinkin, Hell, I know one day I'll be back
As soon as I touch down
I told my girl I'll be there, so prepare, to get fucked down
The homies wanna kick it, but I'm just laughin at cha
Cause youse a down ass bitch, and I ain't mad at cha
 
Chorus: Danny Boy
 
I ain't, mad, at cha (2Pac: I ain't mad at cha)
I ain't, mad, at cha (2Pac: A true down ass bitch, and I ain't mad at cha)
 
Verse Three: 2Pac
 
Well guess who's movin up, this nigga's ballin now
Bitches be callin to get it, hookers keep fallin down
He went from nuttin to lots, ten carots to rock
Went from a nobody nigga to the big, man on the block
He's Mister local celebrity, addicted to move a key
Most hated by enemy, escape in the Luxury
See, first you was our nigga but you made it, so the choice is made
Now we gotta slay you why you faded, in the younger days
So full of pain while the weapons blaze
Gettin so high off that bomb hopin we make it, to the better days
Cause crime pays, and in time, you'll find a rhyme'll blaze
You'll feel the fire from the niggaz in my younger days
So many changed on me, so many tried to plot
That I keep a glock beside my head, when will it stop?
Til God return me to my essence
Cause even as a adolescents, I refuse to be a convalescent
So many questions, and they ask me if I'm still down
I moved up out of the ghetto, so I ain't real now?
They got so much to say, but I'm just laughin at cha
You niggaz just don't know, but I ain't mad at cha
 
Chorus: Danny Boy
Iiiiiiiii,
I ain't, mad at cha (2Pac: and I ain't mad at cha)
Iiiiiiiii ain't mad (2Pac: hell nah I ain't mad at cha) at cha
I ain't, mad at cha (2Pac: and I ain't mad at cha)
I ain't, mad at cha (2Pac: I ain't mad at cha)
I ain't, mad at cha, noooo
I ain't mad at chaaaaahhhhhhhhmm

Trixter - Surrender Lyrics

Trixter - Surrender Video

Words of silence echo through this lonely room
Just a photograph and dreams that won't come true
I'll never know why I left you standin' in the rain
Cryin' tears of emptyness it's drivin' me insane
 
All I wanted was to love you
Never wanted to see you cry
All I need is just to hold you
I just can't say Goodbye
 
Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but I'll be your defender
Cause if love means war, baby I surrender
 
You use words as weapons I use love as a shield
So tell me why are we on this battlefield
In a blaze of glory can we rise above these flames
In a world of anger there's got to be a way
 
Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but I'll be your defender
Cause if love means war, baby I surrender
We're just soldiers from the heart and I ain't no pretender
So lay down your arms and baby let's surrender
 
And thought my aim is true
I sometimes miss the mark
Ooh, in matters of the heart
But I'd give my life tonight
To hold you in my arms
 
In a blaze of glory can we rise above these flames
In a world of anger there's got to be a way
 
I just wanna hold you (surrender)
I just wanna love you (surrender)
I never meant to make you cry
 
Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but I'll be your defender
Cause if love means war, baby I surrender
We're just soldiers of from the heart and I ain't no pretender
So lay down you arms and baby let's surrender
