Music you are (x3) to my ears
Even when I don't participate, you find a way to reciprocate
I never skipped a beat on ya, and you know I'd never cheat on ya
I was broke until you came to heal me, you help me be the real me
I never tried to change ya, even though I rearranged ya
And you know I stay true to ya, everything I do, I do for ya
I just want you to know... you know that you have my heart
Music you are (x3) to my ears - repeat-
You found me, when I couldn't find me....yes I was
Drowning in the deep, my lighthouse you were
(you were) My way.... I know you love me too
I know you true love me, I love you because
I never have to ask you just pick me up (and carry me) on way
Caramel rain/chocolate thunder, Ooo you gotta be
I lust for you, trapped inside this odyssey
Cause I outta see your face when i open my eyes
and I outta see you riding shot gun by my side
And i outta be, no I gotta be that one that sneaks up while you're cooking
To pinch you while you're not looking
Ghetto romance, I'll travel time witcha
Looking in that glass, dag we make a fine picture
A lot to see, I see my future bride to be... oh would you be my sweet mahogany
You gotta be... the hottest thing since fire
So nothing can cool this desire
MUSIC!
Music you are (x3) to my ears -repeat-

Somethin' aint right

(I got a strange feeling)
I feels like something aint right, lately you feel so cold
I doesn't feel right, somethings irking my soul
(i feel it in the air) I feel it in my soul
Something aint quite.... I feel it in my soul
(something don't feel right)
All in your vibe baby, I'm about to lose control
You know I love you, you know it.... I show it
Somehow thats not enough for you
I gave you everything I could, you tried to give it back
My heart aint beat since you left, give it back
And all the time spent, I'll never get it back
I'm not feeling like myself.... I'll get it back
What happened to all this love you swore you had for me
What happened to, you'd always be there for me
Was it just a lie, was it all fake
Or were you just setting up, prepping me for this heart break
I heard a man aint supposed to cry...
Tell me, what kinda lie is that
Society wants animals, they want animals
Yes they want Manimals
Where do we go when we lose our why
I guess I'll just lay in bed... but still
That not enough for you

Sip slow, we not drinking
I stroll the grassy knoll with Abe Lincoln
Eye's closed, but yo bro... I'm think blinking
Third eye wide open, so I'm still thinking
You never gon' see the end of this, listen I am the winningest
Running with these degenerates
Yep, y'all stand with the man... no cameras man
I'll canvas the man... no cameras man
I am what I am... no cameras man
They like do it for the singers in hip hop
You can keep your "Tims"
I will stomp you in flip flops
Nate Star the perfectionist, smack your head around on your shoulders
Call me the exorcist (bars)
And I'm not even a rapper tho
But I'm also not the one that you think you wanna come after bro
Cause this is easy to me...yea this is easy to me

Sometimes We Pay For Luv

Blackberry sweet, you are poison
Poison... you are so sweet
Good thing there aren't many of you, I'd be deranged
You are a vivrant thang, and I just love you
Sweet kisses poisonous, just can't stomach your love
Sometime we pay for love (x3)
Sometimes we pay
Even If I could just call you, I could just call you
"Hey".... its just to involved
And I'm just a walking contradiction, and not to mention
I just can't get enough of your love
Sometime we pay for love (x3)
Sometimes we pay
Sometimes we pray for love
Sometimes we change for love
Sometimes pay for love
Sometimes we pay
Sometimes we pay

When you love people, there's compassion
When you truly love people, there is compassion
Little boys in these farther-less homes...don't nobody wanna think about it
Vet shaking his cup, can I get a buck
(get a job bum) we aint really tryna think about it
Little girl all alone, while her mother gone... at work
But her drunk uncle's home....(aye girl) you aint thinking bout it
If you aint home, why is he....you aint thinking bout it
Over prosecuted blacks in the prison system
Aint nobody tryna listen...
Free my man's and em' (real talk) - free my man's and em'
A crazy man says something crazy, as crazy people tend to do
So you kill him, and everyone else around right
You just as crazy as he is.... you aint thinking bout it
When you love people, there's compassion
When you truly love people, there is compassion
It seem these days things getting worse and worse
The real work put in by the EMT's that push the ambulance
While we all move like we got nine lives, aint afraid to take chances
Except defending our ego, when it gets bruised who's who
And whats there tp think about when we're on auto pilot
Dollars bring out the evil in people,
From the white house, down to the steeple... the motives are the same
Sad part is we all wanna change, but drop the ball when our gut says so
H*ll nah, I refuse to be a pawn in this game that don't give a d**n
Gotta recognize we're more in the grand scheme
Whole sold for dreams, hustle statue of liberty
Fifty-two fake out, yea you get me
Yo, its bigger than Black , don't trust what you see
Pretty soon we'll all be.... But
(nobody wants to think about it
When you love people, there's compassion
When you truly love people, there is compassion
