Wo-oh-oh
Lately people got me all tied up
There's a countdown waiting for me to e-rupt
Time to blow, out.
I've been told just what you do with it
We keep both my hands above the bla- blanket
When the light's, out.
Shame, on me.
To need, release.
Uncontrollably...

(Don't forget about us)
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
My baby boy
Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby
Now every time I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about
[Chorus]
Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy, you'll always be in my heart and
I can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us
I'm just speaking from experience
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us
Oh they say
That you're in a new relationship
But we both know
Nothing comes close to
What we had, it perseveres
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it
There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let
The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret
So don't forget about
[Chorus]
And if she's got your head all messed up now
That's the trickery
She'll wanna have like you know how this lovin' used to be
I bet she can't do like me
She'll never be M-C
Baby don't you, don't you forget about us
[Chorus- x2]
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us.

Sloppy Sue and big-bones-Billy they'll be comin' up for air
They're gonna play some pool - skip some school
act real cool - stay out all night - it's gonna be alright

Because the record company Rosie - just gave me a big advance
And my tires were slashed and I almost crashed but the lord had mercy
My machine she's dud stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
Hold on tight stay up all night Rosie I'm coming on strong
By the time we meet the morning light I will hold you in my arms
I know a pretty little place in Southern California down San Diego way
There's a little cafe - where they play guitar all night and all day
You can hear 'em in the back room strummin'
So hold tight baby 'cuz don't you know daddy's coming

Looking back at the beginning of this

And how life was

Just you and me and love and all of our friends

Living life like an ocean

Now the currents slowly pulling me down

It's getting harder to breath

It won't be too long and I'll be going under
Am
Can you save me from this
Am F
Cause It's not my time,

I'm not going

There's a fear in me It's not showing

This could be the end of me

Oh, I won't go

I look ahead to all the plans that we made
Am
And the dreams that we had
F
I'm in a world that tries to take them away
Am
Oh, but I'm taking them back
F
All this time I've just been to blind to understand
Am
What should matter to me
My friend, this life we live
Is not what we have, it's what we believe
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh, It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
Now I know that
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh, I won't go
I won't go
It might be more than you believe
It might be something you can't see
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a will in me
Now it's gonna show
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
I won't go
There might be more than you believe
There might be more than you can see
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a will in me
Now I know it
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
I won't go
I won't go!

Something grabs a hold of me tightly Flowing like a harpoon daily and nightly

Will it ever stop? Yo - I don't know Turn off the lights and I'll glow
G#m E
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle.
B F#
Dance, Bum rush the speaker that booms I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
G#m E
Deadly, when I play a dope melody Anything less than the best is a felony

Love it or leave it, You better gain way You better hit bull's eye, The kid don't play

Quick to the point, to the point no faking I'm cooking MCs like a pound of bacon
B F#
Burning them if they're not quick and nimble I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
G#m E
And a hi hat with a souped up tempo I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
B F#
Rollin' in my 5. 0 With my ragtop down so my hair can blow
G#m E
The girlies on standby, Waving just to say Hi Did you stop? No -- I just drove by
B F#
Kept on pursuing to the next stop I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
G#m E
That block was dead Yo - so I continued to A1a Beachfront Ave.
B F#
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
G#m E
Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine Shay with a gauge and Vanilla with a nine
B F#
Reading for the chumps on the wall The chumps acting ill because they're so full of Eight Ball
G#m E
Gunshots ranged out like a bell I grabbed my nine - All I heard were shells
B F#
Falling on the concrete real fast Jumped in my car, slammed on the gas
G#m E
Bumper to bumper the avenue's packed I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack
B F#
Police on the scene, You know what I mean They passed me up, confronted all the dope fiends

If there was a problem, You, I'll solve it Check out the hook while my dj revolves it

Take heed, 'cause I'm a lyrical poet Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
G#m E
My town, that created all the bass sound Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
B F#
'Cause my style's like a chemical spill Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
G#m E B
Conducted and formed, This is a hell of a concept We make it hype and you want to step with this
F# G#m
Shay plays on the fade, slice like a ninja Cut like a razor blade so fast, other DJs say, damn

If my rhyme was a drug, I'd sell it by the gram
(slowly)

Keep my composure when it's time to get loose Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice

I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
G Am Em C
To fly
G Am Em C
To fly
I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become near when they aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all see blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just summising
Win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire

Suffocating everytime it locks me in
Paint they own pictures than they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can every be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation
I represent an entire generation
I hear the criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
So we become alive in a time of fear
And I aint got no muthaf-cking time to spare
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me
G Am Em C
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
G Am Em C
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
G Am Em C
To fly
G Am Em C
To fly
I work hard speak soft and carry a big stick
I ain't scurr'd I Ain't worr'd About You and your cheap tricks
beat me till i'm numb never will i succomb
patiently I will wait until your tantrum is done
and then step up to the plate i will
stand tall and still spewing bad ass lick
hoping one day it will all pay off
better sooner than later
i'm so ready for take off.

In Case You Don't
Verse 1-
Woke up early this morning for no particular reason
I glanced over to your side, you're captivating when your dreaming
Seeing that smile on your face puts a smile on my face
You're so addicting that sometimes I catch myself not breathing
I'd hate to disturb you but damn you make me want you make me want you so bad
I can't live without you, it's imperative you always know that
Can't control myself around you, baby I'm so glad that I found you
Here with you, there's no other place I'd rather be at
Pre Chorus-
And I know sometime I may not always treat you right
But now, I am watching you peaceful and I vow with all my life
Tonight, I'm gonna make it right
Chorus-
Cause baby you're the one that I've been searching all my life for
How could I ever ask for more
And when the lights go down it's you that I am after
I know we both know, but in case you don't
Verse 2-
Baby here I am to show you all the things I've never shown you
I'll be here till the end, your lover and your best friend
I will be here when you need me, baby I'll be here completely
You've got me hooked on your love and every word that you have said
So here's to you my love, the only one I want in my life
You are the air I breathe the single brightest star in my sky
If you were to hesitate, I wouldn't care how long the wait
I will be standing here until the day that I can call you all mine
Pre Chorus-
Solo-
Woke up early this morning for no particular reason
I glanced over to your side, you're captivating when your dreaming
You and me together thought the days and night
I don't worry cause everything's gonna be alright
No one, No one, No one, can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, No one, No one, can get in the way of what I'm feeling
[Verse] Em G7 C B7
You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion
By some people who've withdrawn to find their heads
Now they say that there is humor in misfortune
Am7 D G /
You know I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead
[Chorus] C G Am7 G
Why am I fighting to live if I 'm just living to fight?
D7 Em Am7 D7
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
G C B7 Em
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
C G Am7 G
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
[Verse] Em G7 C B7
Bey, you know some people say that values are subjective
But they're just speaking words that someone else has said
And so they live and fight and kill with no objective
Am7 D G /
Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead
[Chorus]
[Verse] Em G7 C B7
Yeah, you know I used to weave my words into confusion
And so I hope you'll understand me when I 'm through
You know I used to live my life as an illusion
But reality will make my dreams come true
[Chorus] C G Am7 G
So I'll keep fighting to live till there's no reason to fight
D7 Em Am7 D7
And I'll keep trying to see until the end is in sight
G C B7 Em
You know I'm trying to give so c'mon give me a try
C G Am7 G
You know I'm dying to live until I'm ready to die.

C C/B Am7 C/B
I took my love and I took it down

Until the landslide brought me down

Oh mirror in the sky What is love

Can the child within my heart rise above

INTRO F F G F F F G
VERSE 1 [Am Em Em Am]
Dig if u will the picture
Of u and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can u my darling
Can u picture this?
VRESE 2 [Am Em Em Am]
Dream if u can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you
CHORUS [Am Em Em Am]
How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold?
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
INTERLUDE F F G F F F G
VRESE 3 [Am Em Em Am]
Touch if u will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You've got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase you
Even doves have pride

There is freedom within, there is freedom without

There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost

But you'll never see the end of the road

while you're travelling with me

Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over

They come, they come To build a wall between us

We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof

My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof

In the paper today tales of war and of waste

And so I face the final curtain,
Em7 Em7/D
My friend. I'll say it clear,
Em7/Db A7 D
I'll stay my case of which I'm certain.
D D7
I've lived a live that's full.
G Gm
I traveled each and every highway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m…………….y way.
D Dmaj7
Regrets, I've had a few,
D7 B7
But then again, too few to mention.
Em7 Em7/D
I did what I had to do,
Em7/Db A7 D
And saw it thru without exemption.
D D7
I planned each charted course,
G Gm
Each careful step along the byway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m___...y way.
D D7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew,
G Gsus4 G
When I bit off more than I could chew,
Em A7
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
F# Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
Em A
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And did it m___...y way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it m___y way.
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it m___y way!
D G C x2
[Verse 1]
Turn me on turn me off then you turn me back on by the weekend
And you won't say the words that I want but you flirt when you're drinkin'
I see those bubbles pop up like you're texting then they disappear
Lets cut through the shit then let's get to what we're doing here
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will
we be reminiscing with each other for the next forty years
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Instrumental]
D G C
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I want you to want me to take you back home to my mama
Put my name on your lips call me yours and forget all this drama
Your makeup is next to my toothbrush but you never put it away on the shelf
I'm asking you baby cuz I'm tired of asking myself
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we-last call kissing, are we dancing in the kitchen,
baby tell me what it is or what it isn't?
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will
we be reminiscing with each other for the next forty years
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand

I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us
How we met and the sparks flew instantly

People would say, they're the lucky ones

I used to know my place was a spot next to you

Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat

'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on

Miscommunications lead to fall out

So many walls up I can't break through

Now, if I wrote you a love note
And made you smile with every word I wrote (what would you do?)
Would that make you want to change your scene
And wanna be the one on my team (tell me, would you?)
See, what's the point of waiting anymore?
Cause girl I've never been more sure (that baby, it's you)
This ring here represents my heart
And everything that you've been waiting for (just say I do)

[T.I.'s rap-]
Shorty, cool as a fan
On the new once again
But, still has fan from Peru to Japan
Listen baby, I don't wanna ruin your plan
If you got a man, try to lose him if you can
Cause your girls real wild through your hands up high
When they wanna come kick it wit a stand up guy
You don't really wanna let the chance go by
Because you ain't been seen wit a man so fly
Friend so fly i can go fly
Private, cause I handle mine
B.I. they call me candle guy, simply because I am on fire
I hate to have to cancel my vacation so you can't deny
I'm patient, but I ain't gonna try
You don't come, I ain't gonna die
Hold up, what you mean, you can't go why?
Me and you boyfriend we ain't no tie
You say you wanna kick it with an ace so high
Baby, you decide that I ain't your guy
Ain't gon lie ,Me in your space
But forget your face, I swear I will
Same mark, same bullet anywhere I chill
Just bring wit me a pair, I will
[Chorus-]
I can see us holding hands
Walking on the beach, our toes in the sand
I can see us on the countryside
Sitting on the grass, laying side by side
You could be my baby, let me make you my lady
Girl, you amaze me
Ain't gotta do nothing crazy
See, all I want you to do is be my love
(Love) My love
(Love) My love
(Love) Ain't another woman that can take your spot, my love
(Love) My love

I was raised off of Rural Route 3,
A
out past where the blacktop ends,

We'd walk to church on Sunday mornin'
G
and race barefoot back to Johnson's fence
D
That's where I first saw Mary,
A
On that roadside pickin' blackberries,

that summer I turned a corner in my soul down that red dirt road
[Chorus]
D
It's where I drank my first beer,
A
It's where I found Jesus,
Bm
Where I wrecked my first car
G
I tore it all to pieces,
D
I learned the path to heaven,
A
It's full of sinners and believers,
Bm
Learned that happiness on earth,
G
Ain't just for high achievers,
Em F#m
I've learned, I've come to know,
G A D
there's life at both ends of that red dirt road
[Verse]
D
Her daddy didn't like me much,
A
In my shackled up GTO,
D
I'd sneak out in the middle of the night,
G
Throw rocks at her bedroom window,
D
We'd turn out the headlights,
A
Drive by the moonlight,
Bm G
Talk about what the future might hold,
A D
Down that red dirt road,
[Chorus]

It's where I drank my first beer,
A
It's where I found Jesus,

I know what you're doing, I see it all to clear
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears.
You really had me going, wishing on a star.
The black holes that surround you are heavier by far,
I believed in your confusion, you're so completely torn.

There's not much to examine, nothing left to hide.
You really can't be serious, to have to ask me why

I say goodbye...
Chorus: C G C G
'Cause I am barely breathing, I can't find the air,

Verse 2: Em A9 C9/G D9/F#

[Verse 1]
Am F
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Am F
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
Am F
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood
Am F
Cries out My God they killed them all!
C F
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For something that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell but one time
Am F C G
He could have been the champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 2]
Am F
Three bodies lyin’ there does Patty see
Am F
And another man named Bello, movin’ around mysteriously
Am F
I didn’t do it, he says, and he throws up his hands
Am F
I was only robbin’ the register, I hope you understand
C F
I saw them leavin’, he says, and he stops
G C F
One of us had better call up the cops
Dm C
And so Patty calls the cops
Dm C Em
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin’
Am F C G
In the hot New Jersey night
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 3]
Am F
Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Am F
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin’ around
Am F
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Am F
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
C F
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
G C F
Just like the time before and the time before that
Dm C
In Paterson that’s just the way things go
Dm C Em
If you’re black you might as well not show up on the street
Am F C G
’Less you wanna draw the heat
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 4]
Am F
Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
Am F
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin’ around
Am F
He said, I saw two men runnin’ out, they looked like middleweights
Am F
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates
C F
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head
G C F
Cop said, Wait a minute, boys, this one’s not dead
Dm C
So they took him to the infirmary
Dm C Em
And though this man could hardly see
Am F C G
They told him that he could identify the guilty men
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 5]
Am F
Four in the mornin’ and they haul Rubin in
Am F
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs
Am F
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin’ eye
Am F
Says, Wha’d you bring him in here for? He ain’t the guy!
C F
Yes, here’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For somethin’ that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 6]
Am F
Four months later, the ghettos are in flame
Am F
Rubin’s in South America, fightin’ for his name
Am F
While Arthur Dexter Bradley’s still in the robbery game
Am F
And the cops are puttin’ the screws to him, lookin’ for somebody to blame
C F
Remember that murder that happened in a bar?
G C F
Remember you said you saw the getaway car?
Dm C
You think you’d like to play ball with the law?
Dm C Em
Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin’ that night?
Am F C G
Don’t forget that you are white
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 7]
Am F
Arthur Dexter Bradley said, I’m really not sure
Am F
Cops said, A poor boy like you could use a break
Am F
We got you for the motel job and we’re talkin’ to your friend Bello
Am F
Now you don’t wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow
C F
You’ll be doin’ society a favor
G C F
That sonofa is brave and gettin’ braver
Dm C
We want to put his ass in stir
Dm C Em
We want to pin this triple murder on him
Am F C G
He ain’t no Gentleman Jim
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 8]
Am F
Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
Am F
But he never did like to talk about it all that much
Am F
It’s my work, he’d say, and I do it for pay
Am F
And when it’s over I’d just as soon go on my way
C F
Up to some paradise
G C F
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
Dm C
And ride a horse along a trail
Dm C Em
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Am F C G
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 9]
Am F
All of Rubin’s cards were marked in advance
Am F
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
Am F
The judge made Rubin’s witnesses drunkards from the slums
Am F
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
C F
And to the black folks he was just a crazy er
G C F
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger
Dm C
And though they could not produce the gun
Dm C Em
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
Am F C G
And the all-white jury agreed
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 10]
Am F
Rubin Carter was falsely tried
Am F
The crime was murder one, guess who testified?
Am F
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
Am F
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride
C F
How can the life of such a man
G C F
Be in the palm of some fool’s hand?
Dm C
To see him obviously framed
Dm C Em
Couldn’t help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Am F C G
Where justice is a game
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 11]
Am F
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Am F
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
Am F
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
Am F
An innocent man in a living hell
C F
That’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
But it won’t be over till they clear his name
Dm C
And give him back the time he’s done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world

CHORUS-
If you had my love
And I gave you all my trust
Would you comfort me
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue
Would you lie to me
And call me baby
Verse
Now if I gave you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take you cheatin' on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool
You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See that's what you told me (that's what you said)
But if you want me
You have to be fulfilling all my dreams
(If you really want me babe)
CHORUS
Verse
Said you want my love and you've got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you want to live
With all I have to give
I need to feel true love
Or it's got to end, yeah
I don't want you
Trying to get with me
And I end up unhappy
(Don't need the hurt and I don't need the pain)
So before I do
Give myself to you
I have to know the truth
(If I spend my life with you)
