Bright lights is enticing but look what it did to Tyson
All that money in one night, thirty mill for one fight
But soon as all the money blows, all the pigeons take flight
Fuck the fame, keep cheating on me, what I do, I took her back
Fool me twice, that's my bad, I can't even blame her for that
Enough to make me wanna murder, momma please just get my bail
I know nobody to blame, Kurt Cobain, I did it to myself

Now I got tattoos on my body, psycho es in my lobby
I got haters in the paper, photo shoots with paparazzi
Can't even take my daughter for a walk, see 'em by the corner store
I feel like I'm cornered off enough is enough, I'm calling this off
Who the fuck I'm kidding though, I'm getting high, sitting low
Sliding by in that big body, curtains all in my window
This fame hurt but this chain works, I think back you asked the same person
If this is all you had to deal with, deal with, this shit ain't work
This light work, camera snapping, my eyes hurt
s dying back where I was birthed, fuck your IRIS and the IRS
Get the hell up off your high horse
You got the shit that s die for, dry yours
Why you mad, take the good with the bad
Don't throw the baby out with the bath water
You still alive, still that
you survived, you still getting bigger
Living the life, Vanilla wafers in a villa
Illest alive, Michael Jackson's Thriller

Staring at a son that she just can't touch

If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
D# A#
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
F C
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
D# A#
'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
F C
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how

Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me

Little precious has a natural obsession

For temptation but he just can't see

She gives him loving that his body can't handle

One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror

I seen a rainbow yesterday

Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?
A#
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days

And like His promise is true
C
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
D#
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
A#
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
F
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
C
With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
D#
Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A#
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain
F
You claim the insane and name this day in time

For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind

Dreams are hopeless aspirations

In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you

Verse 1- D, G
When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
Refrain- F#, G
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Chorus-
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place where blind men see
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place with golden streets
Verse 2- D, G
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
Refrain 2- F#, G
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Chorus-
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place where blind men see
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place with golden streets
D A G
Up High I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
D A G
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams, and make them mine
D A G
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams, and make them mine

Chorus- [x2]

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
Bb
'Till touch down brings me round again to find
Eb
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Bb C
Oh no, no, no, I'm a rocket man
Eb Bb
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone
(+Eb between choruses)
Gm C
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
Gm C
In fact it's cold as hell
Eb Bb quick Eb F
And there's no one there to raise them, if you did
Gm C
And all this science I don't understand
Gm C
It's just my job, five days a week

At times I wonder why I fool with you / But this is new to me, this is new to you

To understand that things go a little bit better when you plan it, oh

When all at once I wake-up, from something that keeps knock-ing-at-my-brain,

Be-fore I go insane I hold my pillow to my head,
C G Dm
And spring-up in my bed, screaming out the words I dread - I think I love you!
Dm A
This morn-ing, I woke up with this feel-ing,
Dm G
I didn't know how to deal-with, and so I just decided to myself
Dm
I'd hide-it-to-myself and never talk about it,
C G Dm
And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room - I think I love you!
G D
I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not

Now and then I think of when we were together
D C D C D C D C
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
D C D C
Told myself that you were right for me
D C D C
But felt so lonely in your company
D C D C D C D C
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
D C D C D C D C
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
D C D C D C D C
Like resignation to the end Always the end
D C D C D
So when we found that we could not make sense
D C D C
Well you said that we would still be friends
D C D C D C D C
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
D C B F
But you didn't have to cut me off
D C
Make out like it never happened
B F
And that we were nothing
D C B F
And I don't even need your love
D C
But you treat me like a stranger
B F
And that feels so rough
D C B F
You didn't have to stoop so low
D C B
Have your friends collect your records
F D
And then change your number
D C B F
I guess that I don't need that though
D C B F
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
D C D C D C D C
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
D C D C D C D C
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
D C D C
And I don't wanna live that way
D C D C
Reading into every word you say
D C D C
You said that you could let it go
D C D C D C D C
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...
D C B F
But you didn't have to cut me off
D C
Make out like it never happened
B F
And that we were nothing
D C B F
And I don't even need your love
D C
But you treat me like a stranger
B F
And that feels so rough
D C B F
You didn't have to stoop so low
D C B
Have your friends collect your records
F D
And then change your number
D C B F
I guess that I don't need that though
D C B F
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
D C B F
I used to know
D C B F
That I used to know
D C B F
Somebody...

Dinging like a cymbal, rhyme devil on the heavenly level
Bang the bass, turn up the treble
Radical mind, day and night all the time

Maniac brainiac, winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James
Quality I possess and say I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the mesh
Of the microphone, that I am holding
Copy written lyrics, so they can't be stolen
If they all Snap, don't need the police
To try to save them, your voice don't see
So peace, stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that
I've got the power

Haha, Luda!
She can go lower than I ever really thought she could Face down, ass up
The top of your booty jiggling out your jeans, baby pull your pants up
I like it when I see you do it, better than I've ever seen I done befo'
A lot of, women, drop it to the ground, but how low can you go?
Lower than your mama's ever seen it in her lifetime
Never would've imagined it, not even in her right mind
Practice in front of that mirror, now you doing it on the dance flo'
Mad 'cause I can't get with you, chick, just show me how to dance, oh
I may not wanna get low, so I'm posted up, kinda like a player do
But if you come to the crib, then I might show you girls a thang or two
Yeah, I think you a superstar, with a ass like that you gotta blow
Befo' you make it big, there's just one thang that I gotta know
How low can you go? How low can you go? [x4]
I can go low (go low), lower than you know
Go low (go low), lower than you know [x3]
I be like knick, knack, patty, wack
Oh, where my kitty cat?
Give a dog a bone
How many licks does it take 'til I get to the center and let a realer take you home?
I can make this show stop, soon as he hear this fo' pop
From ATLANTA all the way down to yo' block
Put the needle on the record
And I make her get lower than a Lamborghini
And if she really get low, then I'ma shoot a video and put it all on TV
'Cause I like that French vanilla (French vanilla)
And the caramel (and the caramel)
But when it comes to chocolate (when it comes to chocolate)
I know that very well
Asian persuasion, no discrimination, I love how they seem to please us
I wanna taste them butter Rican pecan peanut butter cups like Reese's Pieces
'Cause I think you a superstar, with a ass like that you gotta blow
Befo' you make it big, well, there's just one thang that I gotta know
How low can you go? How low can you go? [x4]
I can go low (go low), lower than you know
Go low (go low), lower than you know [x3]
Drop it, hit it, dump it, split it
Don't, stop, get it, get it
Put it in reverse just to back it up
Let me put some Luda in it
Show me whatchu working with, I'll show you some of this bank, roll
Yeah, you a superstar, there's just one thang I gotta know, so
How low can you go? How low can you go? [x4]
I can go low (go low), lower than you know
Go low (go low), lower than you know [x3]

'cause you asked for it

[Verse]
C
Love was kind, for a time
G C
Now just aches, and it makes me blind
C
This mirrors holds my eyes too bright
G C
That I can't see the others in my life
C
We too young and heads too strong
G C
To bear the weight of these lover's eyes
C
Cuz I feel numb beneath your tongue
G C
Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.
[Chorus]
F C G C
But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage
F C G C
Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead
F C
Should you shake my ash to the wind
G C
Lord forget all of my sins
F C G C
Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes
[Break]

Your strength just makes me feel less strong
