[Common]
Yeah baby boy
In the place (for you and yours) to be
Da uh da uh, we got the uh ya’ll
We bout to rock ya’ll, we got the uh baby…
Yo yo yo check it
Excite-ting, enlight-ning, invite-ting
I’m writin shit that I feel
Raps are Black Steel In the Hour of commotion, the motion of Com
Is like that of a ocean, devotion cuz I’m
The Earth, Wind, and Fire of hip hop
By Rakim and Short I been inspired
My shit knocks environ—ments
of cats wit seventeen’s tint, time is money
The mind is funny, how it’s spent on gettin it
It’s sittin wit descendants of Abraham
Who say the jam is “Money, Cash, Hoes”
I went from bashful to asshole to international
Lover-self, word to the mother on my last record cover it’s felt
Now deal wit it

Chorus: Bilal

I wanna get into it
Let’s do this
I wanna see you move it
So move it
So let’s just get into it
Let’s do this
Can you feel the music?
The music oh ah, can you feel the music, the music

[Common]
Yo check it yo
In this never-ending battle to please
Niggas, magazine writers, MC’s
Who request hot shit, I freeze
And tell em where I was rose, we always said cold
Hold your Horses and ya Carriages, this never-went-gold nigga
Rocks shows care-less
You not gon’ respect self, at least respect the heritage
Affect the lives, the spread of wealth and the merit is
I realize what I portray day to day, I gotta carry this
And beats, rhymes and life is where the marriage is
Had Dreams of Fuckin R&B broads, it came true
Journalist I wreck, shared the same view
Picked up a fallen angel on the path that I MC
Familiar voice, come to find out the angel was me
Some say “You changin, Rashid”
Times are, we still close
I rhyme far, away away away
From what you accustomed to hearin everyday, uh-ah
You know the dope-choppin, gun-poppin, homies dyin
I’m amongst it, save the war stories for Private Ryan, INI

Chorus

[Common]
Yo check it yo
Women cry, children laugh, men dance
I refuse to lose self and try to win fans over
Weight on my shoulder fluctuates like Oprah’s
My refrigerator poetry’s magnetic like ultra
You couldn’t hang if you was a poster
Posin like a bitch for exposure
It’s rumors of gay MC’s, just don’t come around me wit it
You still rockin hickies, don’t let me find out he did it
Got My Eyes on the Tiger, Eyes on the Prize
Eyes on the thighs of Mary J. Blige, imagin on how good the cat must be
Stop eatin meat, lost weight, but I still rap husky
My verse depth is that of a baby’s first step
Or the old lady who died and the nurse wept
I flow like cursive writing, invitin you and yours to my openess
Shows allow me to cop Range/range like a vocalist
But man does not live on bread alone
What good is a Range/range when it’s time to head home?

Chorus 2x

[Common] *during chorus on the second time*
We be that, we be that
Afrodisiac, disiac
We be that, we be that
Afrodisiac, disiac
We be that, we be that
Afrodisiac, disiac
We be that, we be that
Afrodisiac, disiac
We be that, we be that
Afrodisiac, disiac
We be that, we be that
Afrodisiac, disiac yeah

Ella sabe darse todo en un instante
Derretir con la mirada un corazon
Ella es fuego que se siente
En mis labios cuando
Hacemos el amor
Es un aventura andar bajo su blusa
Poco a poco acariciar toda su piel
Es un sueno darle un beso
Ella sabe que me tiene a su merced
[Refrain:]
Mi corazon es suyo
Me siento suyo
Daria la vida por volverle a ver
Quien iba imaginarlo
Yo convertido
En un capricho de su desnudez
No hay nadie como ella
Tan dulce tan bella
Me juego la vida por ella
No hay nadie como ella
Es fuego que quema
Estoy que me muero por ella
Ella no es como las otras dejaron
Cicatrizas de armargura y de dolor
Vino ella y con ternura
Otra vezo me hizo creer en el amor

[Refrain 2x]

Es tarde ya
Pero da igual.
La noche es fr?a
Las manos ni las sent?a.

Quietos los dos.
Call?ndonos
Las horas que pasar?an
puede que fueran d?as.


No hay violines pero est?s tu
No hay parolas pero est? tu luz
Estamos congelando el amor
Para conservar lo mejor

No te preocupes porque

Nada es imposible
Si se funden los fusibles
Del coraz?n
Del coraz?n
Nada es imposible
Podemos hacernos invisibles
Con mi amorSi somos dos.

Nada que ver
Que torpe proceder
Mi timidez repentina
Mi risa de serpentina.

Nada que ver
Un charlat?n de ayer
Que diferente sent?a
Solo con compa??a.

No hay atardecer pero me miras tu
No hay brisa de mar y no suspiras tu
Estamos decorando este rinc?nPoniendo a la ciudad en situaci?n

No te preocupes porque
Nada es imposible
Si se funden los fusibles
Del coraz?n
Del coraz?n
Nada es imposible
Podemos hacernos invisibles
Con mi amor
Si somos dos.

Hey man, want to try
Wanna by that guy that I hate
Hey man, want to front some shit
Wanna claim your it
And be insane

It?s not about you
It?s all about me
It?s not about you
It?s all about…

Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become like…
Me
Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become Na?ve

Hey man, want to take my place
Want to walk in my place
and cover me
And Hey man, want to
breathe my air
Want to think it?s fair that
you?ll never see

It?s not about you
It?s all about me
It?s not about you
It?s all about…

Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become like…
Me
Me
To find my own way
To live through this day
And watch all the stains
Become Na?ve

O negro pisou no topo do morro
Pegou sua viola e tocou pro povo
Pro povo do crime
Que foi chegando e colocando
As suas armas devagar no ch?o
O mesmo ch?o que guarda o sangue
O mesmo ch?o de correrias
O mesmo ch?o de tantas fam?lias
Que hoje batucam o mesmo som

Na palma da m?o pra aliviar

O negro brilhou e ajudou
Aquelas almas distorcidas pela guerra
S? com a viola, s? com a voz
S? com a viola suas id?ias
Onegro falou e falou alto
Inspirou uma calma
E misteriosamente alegre ?
Sufocando o pior dos bandidos

E em troca deixou l?grimas
Nos olhos do artista
L?grimas, l?grimas
Na palma da m?o pra aliviar

Hoje mesmo, hoje
Quando o barulho dos tiros sinalizam
O que acontece por l?

Uma comunica??o silenciosa
Se faz com a mem?ria das armas no ch?o
Por algum momento
Ganhando outra miss?o

Na na na na na na na na
Hey hey hey goodbye

He’ll never love you
The way that I love you
‘Cause if he did no,
No he wouldn’t make you cry

(bridge)
He might be thrilling baby but my love’s
So dog-gone willing so kiss him,
Go on and kiss him goodbye

(chorus)
Na na na na na na na na
Hey hey hey
Goodbye

He’s never near you
To comfort and cheer you,
When all those sad tears are
Falling baby from your eyes

(bridge)

(chorus repeat fade)

Na laetha geal m’?ige The bright days of my youth
———————- —————————–
(In ?m?s do mo m’athair agus do m’atair) (In honor of my father and mother)

Ag amharc tr? m’?ige Looking back over my youth
Is m? bh? s?mh I see I was contented
Gan eolas marbh Without knowledge of death
Bh? m? ?g san am, I was young then

Anois, t?im buartha Now I am worried
‘s fad ar shi?il an l?. During the course of the day.
Och?n ‘s och?n ?. (Oh sorrow!) [Alas and woe, oh.]

Na laetha geal m’?ige The bright days of my youth
Bh? siad l?n de dh?chas Were full of hope
An bealach m?r a bh? romham anonn The big road that was before us then
Bh? s? i nd?n domh go mbeinn, sl?n, sl?n. Was what was destined to be,
Bye bye…

(Repeat refrain)

Is this it, are we done?
Must we carry on?
Like such fools shameless fools
Is it finally over?
Why when I call must you take so long?
Maybe weeks sometimes months
For you to call me back

You’re so naive [you’re so naive]
You’re so naive [you’re so naive]

My friends were right
Should have played it smooth
Should have tried to laugh
Instead of being true

I feel so numb inside
As I rest my head to go to sleep

One more time
Though I know it’s wrong
Maybe you should do mine
And everything is fine

Feel so naive [feel so naive]
Feel so naive [feel so naive]

Old lady lost in the city
In the middle of a cold, cold night
It was fourteen below and the wind start to blow
There wasn’t a boy scout in sight
Pull down the shades cause he’s comin’
Turn out the lights cause he’s here
Runnin’ hard down the street
Through the snow and the sleet
On the coldest night of the year

CHORUS
Beware, beware, beware of the Naked Man

Old lady head up toward Broad Street
Shufflin’ uptown against the wind
She had started to cry-wiped a tear from her eye
And looked back to see where she had been

Old lady stand on the corner
With a purse in her hand
She does not know but in a minute or so
She will be robbed by a naked man

CHORUS

Old lady lean against a lamppost
Starin’ down at the ground on which she stand
She look up and scream
For the lamplight’s beam
There stood the famous Naked Man

He say, “They found out about my sister
And kicked me out of the Navy,
They would have strung me up if they could.
I tried to explain that we were both of us lazy
And were doing the best we could.”

He faked to the left and he faked to the right
And he snatched the purse fromere hand
“Someone stop me,” he cried,
As he faded from sight,
“Won’t nobody help a naked man?”
“Won’t nobody help a naked man?”

CHORUS

I catch a word of the universal rhyme
in the summertimes in the summertimes
The river flows and I wonder where it goes
only heaven knows only heaven knows

Inpatient with the human race
still Nature shows a friendly face
And I believe in paradise on Earth

But then tonight I had this dream
so horrible I had to scream
I saw the Earth naked like the Moon
naked like the Moon

(Piano)

Inpatient with the human race
still Nature shows a friendly face
And I believe in paradise on Earth

But when I saw the News today
so horrible I had to pray
Don’t leave the Earth naked like the Moon
naked like the Moon
