3LW - Gettin' Too Heavy Lyrics

3LW - Gettin' Too Heavy Video

VERSE 1:
 
Sittin' here chillin' with you
You're gettin' close boy but I'm playin' it cool (cool)
I must confess, I'm feelin' you but I'm layin' down some rules
Get one thing straight, I won't be played, I don't get down that way
 
CHORUS:
 
You asked me once, I told you twice, when will you understand?
I asked my friends for their advice they say girl don't give in
In you and me I believe but I'm torn between
It's gettin' too heavy for me
 
VERSE 2:
 
Baby why you stress me like that?
Talking about what you have done in the past
I don't take love so casually so don't put that pressure on me
Baby just walk right out the door cuz I've heard those lines before
 
CHORUS
 
BRIDGE:
 
You're tellin' me this would prove that I care (It's gettin' too heavy)
But if I wait baby will you be there?
Will you be there?
There?
 
You know I like you boy, (oh)
But you gotta understand, (yeah, yeah)
That I'm just not ready,
(Ooh) It isn't you, but we gotta take our time, (take our time ooh yeah)
And I'm torn between, (I'm torn between)
It's getting too heavy for me (It's getting too heavy for me)
 
CHORUS
 
(ooh ooh ooh ooh oh)
In you and me I believe (I believe)but I'm torn between (I'm torn between)
It's getting too heavy for me
Getting too heavy, heavy, heavy yeah, don't make me say it (yeah, yeah)
(ooh ooh ooh oooh)
In you and me I believe, but I'm torn between
It's getting too heavy for me... (fades)

2Pac - It Ain't Easy Lyrics

2Pac - It Ain't Easy Video

Keepin it real
 
Verse One: 2Pac
 
I take a shot of Henessey now I'm strong enough to face the madness
Nickel bag full of sess weed laced with hash
Phone calls from my niggaz on the, other side
Two childhood friends just died, I couldn't cry
A damn shame, when will we ever change
And what remains from a twelve gauge to the brain
Arguements with my Boo is true
I spend mo' time with my niggaz than I do with you
But everywhere it's the same thang, that's the game
I'll be damned if a thang changed, fuck the fame
I'll be hustling to make a mill-ion, lord knows
Ain't no love for us ghetto children, so we cold
Rag top slowin down, time to stop for gas
Beep my horn for a hoochie with a proper ass, uhh
It ain't easy, that's my motto
Drinkin Tanqueray straight out the bottle
Everybody wanna know if I'm insane
My baby mama gotta mind full of silly games
And all the drama got me stressin like I'm hopeless, I can't cope
Me and the homies smokin roaches, cause we broke
Late night hangin out til the sunrise gettin high
Watchin the cops roll by
It ain't easy... that's right
 
Chorus: 2Pac
 
It ain't easy, being me
Will I see the penitentiary, or will I stay free
(repeat 3X)
 
Verse Two: 2Pac
 
I can't sleep niggaz plottin on to kill me while I'm dreamin
Wake up sweaty and screamin, cause I can hear them suckers schemin
Probably paranoid, problem is, them punks be fantasizin
A brother bite the bullet, open fire and I died
I wonder why this the way it is, even now
Lookin out for these killer kids, cause they wild
Bill Clinton can you recognize a nigga representin
Doin twenty to life in San Quentin
Gettin calls from my nigga Mike Tyson, ain't nuttin nice
Yo 'Pac, do something righteous witcha life
And even thou you innocent you still a nigga, so they figure
Rather have you behind bars than triggers
But I'm hold ya down and holla Thug Life, lickin shots
Til I see my niggaz free on the block
But no it ain't easy, hahahah
Til I see my niggaz free, on the block, oh
It ain't easy
 
Chorus 2.75
 
Verse Three: 2Pac
 
Lately been reminiscin
Bout Peppermint Schnapps in Junior High hit the block
Keep an eye on the cops while D-Boys slang rocks
It's the project kid without a conscience, I'm havin dreams
Of hearin screams at my concerts, me all my childhood peers
Through the years tryin to stack a little green
I was only seventeen, when I started servin fiends
And I wish there was another way to stack a dollar
So my apoli', casue these hard times make me wanna holler
Will I live to see tommorrow, am I fallin off?
I hit the weed and then proceed to say fuck all of y'all
Ain't nobody down with me I'm thuggin, I can't go home
Cause muh-fuckers think I'm buggin, so now I'm in
This high powered cell at the county jail
Punk judge got a grudge, can't post no bail, what
Do I do in these county blues
Gettin battered and bruised by the you know who
And these fakes get to shakin when they face me
Snakes ain't got enough nuts to replace me
Sittin in this, livin hell, listenin to niggaz yell
Tryin to torture em to tell, I'm gettin mail
But ain't nobody sayin much, the same old nuts
Is makin bucks while these sluts is gettin fucked
They violated my probation, and it seems
I'll be goin on a long vacation, meanwhile
It ain't easy
No it ain't easy

U2 - Stay (Faraway, So Close) Lyrics

U2 - Stay (Faraway, So Close) Video

Green light, 7-Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
The wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you you don't mind
Because when he hurts you you feel alive
Oh now, is that what it is
 
Red light, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay up to watch the adverts
You could lip-synch to the talk shows
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk it's not to me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
 
If I could stay, then the night would give you up
Stay, and the day would keep its trust
Stay, and the night would be enough
 
Faraway, so close up with the static and the radio
With satellite television you can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin
 
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you
If I could stay then the night would give you up
Stay then the day would keep its trust
Stay with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay and the night would be enough
 
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter as an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter as an angel hits the ground

A hell of motherfucking road blocks and crooked cops

Moving my tapes in major ways cause every dollar counts

While you bullshitting niggas was dying and catching cases
Busting my automatics at motherfuckers in foreign places
Leaving no trace they see my face and then they buried
Them bitches die in a hurry still I ride I'm never worried
Mr. Makaveli tell me to ride and I'ma ride
Pick my enemies out the crowd and motherfuckers die

Nigga I came from not much so money I clutch
Uhuh Napolean the strength of strong arm
With a dick they whistle and ride I put a move up on

Been blessed for sure to eat from out the ghetto

Switch it to the left lane I play with my hands
And I'm plotting on the fortune it's getting hot and scorching

Now with this outlaw lifestyle that I've been introduced to
Money and hoes keep us closer to Lucifer (what's up Kurupt)
Steady seducing us and I'm all for it
It's the life for me and the law cant spoil it
So you can call it what the fuck you want (right)
But I'm a baller alcoholic with a sawn-off pump (nigga)
My mamma ain't raise no punk and even dead Pac
So when I jump off I breathe for Yak
Been puttin in work so I walk with a bop
And it safe at home so I sleep with a glock (no mistakes)
Thug living Ugh what the fuck would be better

Smash Mouth - Stoned Lyrics

Smash Mouth - Stoned Video

Leave me alone I'm over it
And everybody's movin' on
I can't see my tomorrow and yesterday has come and gone
So leave me alone
My mind is blown but it's my own
So deal with it
I'm feeling fine most the time
I may be on the outside but no one's getting in
So leave me alone
 
We're O.K. reelin' in the days
We're alright we're just getting high
Let us be it'll be all right
 
I got no strife I'm loving life
Could you say the same
You don't have to move to groove
So come on up and see me but leave that judge behind
'Cause I'm loving life
 
Repeat Chorus 2x
 
I'm gettin' stoned and what's wrong with that
The president seems to be just fine
Come on up and see me
Come on up just know that I'm gettin' stoned
I'm gettin' stoned I'm gettin' stoned I'm gettin' stoned
 
Repeat Chorus

Slipknot - Gently Lyrics

Slipknot - Gently Video

Gently, my mind escapes into the relaxing world of pleasure
A pleasure that'll take my mind off the reality of my life
My past life...
Life as I know it now!
 
And whatever may come, it slowly disappears
To somewhere in the back of my mind
It will remain there... until I wish to retrieve it
 
Yes, I will stay here for awhile, for I need the break
A break from the pressures of life
And everything that lays in the palm of life's hands
Life's hands
 
Yeah!
 
This mode is incredible
It's out of this world
Too bad I must always leave it now
 
That's life (That's life)
That's life (That's life)
That's life (That's life)
That's life (That's life)
 
Yes... Yes... Yes... Yes

Sam Cooke - Rome Wasn't Built In A Day Lyrics

Sam Cooke - Rome Wasn't Built In A Day Video

Don't, honey don't, go away, no no
Don't you hear, don't you hear,
What I say, what I say
Give me time, give me time
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day
 
Now, you know that I love you dear with all my heart
I know that you didn't love me from the start
But I planted a lil' seed in your heart I know
And it just needs time to grow, baby
 
Don't, honey don't, go away, no no
Don't you hear, don't you hear,
What I say, what I say
Give me time, give me time
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day
Listen to me honey now
 
How would Romeo feel if his Juliet
Had turned down his advances and played hard to get
He wouldn't have let this bother him, this I know
Because where there's light there's hope
Oh!
 
Baby, don't go away, no no
Don't you hear now, don't you hear now,
What I say, what I say
Give me time, give me time
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day
 
Don't you hear me telling you that
Rome wasn't built in a day
Don't you realize that
Rome wasn't built in a day

Peter Cetera - Even A Fool Can See Lyrics

Peter Cetera - Even A Fool Can See Video

One big happy family
Together the rest of our lives
As far as our friends were concerned
Everything seemed right
 
But that's when she told me
She said me it was time to move on
Just something that she kept inside
That told me the thrill was gone
 
And now I can't believe
I can't believe it's over
Suddenly it's plain to see
She's leaving me and
 
Even a fool can see
There's nothing left between us
I knew all along something was wrong
But I did my best to deny it
And now I can't go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that I'm alright
Even a fool can see
 
There were times we had nothing
And yet somehow we laughed through it all
There are moments I'll never forget
And some I wouldn't care to recall
 
And still I can't believe
I can't believe it's over
Suddenly it's plain to see
She's doesn't need me
 
Even a fool can see
There's nothing left between us
I knew all along that something was wrong
But I did my best to deny it
And now I can't go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that I'm alright
Even a fool can see
 
Nothing more to talk about
It's over when it's over
In the end you both stop trying
In the end it's oh so sad
And you are crying
 
And now I can't go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that I'm alright
Even a fool can see
 
Won't ya tell me that I'm alright
Even a fool like me
 
Woo ooo I'm alright
Even a fool can see
Whoa ooo ooo ooo

Offspring - Long Way Home Lyrics

Offspring - Long Way Home Video

Hey!
I'm driving down a dusty road
Hey!
I've got nowhere to go
Hey!
No place that I can call my own
On and on this road is burning
Break away!
I'm leaving all this crap behind
Break away!
The past is gone the future's blind
Break away!
Don't care how long it takes this time
On and on I'll take the long way home
The long way home
The long way home
If it's for me it's on the way home
 
Hey!
Like fragments of a broken mind
Hey!
I splinter by my own design
Hey!
The search is not a waste of time
On and on this road keeps burning
Break Away!
My hands are glued upon the wheel
Break Away!
The road ahead is all I feel
Break Away!
The only thing left that's real
On and on I'll take this long way home
The long way home
The long way home
I will go alone
I will go and find it on my own
 
What lays ahead you cannot find for me
 
On and on I'll take the long way home
The long way home
The long way home
If it's for me it's on the way home
The long way home
I'll take the long way home
I will go alone
I will go and find it on my own
