On album Alone (1999)

Thousand drums play in my mind
Take, it off him put it on me
Oh, I'm feeling so lonely
And I'm holding back my tears
Come on!
I don't…
…) 5:30 in the morning,
Get out of bed and then I join in.
Straight to the bathroom to wash my face,
To my surprise - there's…
…just don't care!
Outside the gates of heaven
Oh, there lives a unicorn
I close my eyes to seven
Oh, this world is not my home…

Whether It's Far Or Wide Both These Arms'll Glide me to my Landing Free
Harmonize Or Scar & Carve Them Eyes For Every Man…
Look At Mines
If I Ain't Got Nothing Else I Got My Ideas, Right Chere
Ripping From My Genes It's Hard To Fight Tears, My Niece Gon…
For Me
Work Until Bathroom Got A Backroom In My Castle Size
From Dragging Sleds to Dragon Flys or Dragging Bags to Dragging Eyes…

…me keep my composure
Every night working for exposure
Cook up in the kitchen just to cook up what they listen
This master chef…
…relatives
Really it's an issue with me
Laughing like crying, my tears comic relief
And I don't trust God, but I got cosmic belief
Why I…
…the crib for belongings
No longer longing for a change
It's right in front my face
So time to shake homeboy
Boy get up, I got a flight to catch
Lance, his…

…but I am not worried about it landing me in hell with him. I have already been there with that bastard, and I am a better person for it. Nixon had…
Nixon all their lives. My mother hates Nixon, my son hates Nixon, I hate Nixon, and this hatred has brought us together.
Nixon…
…to the vice presidency in six quick years would never have happened if TV had come along 10 years earlier. He got away with his sleazy "my dog…

…like a great bird landing
tears of autumn
there's a white tent that sits
in the middle of a raft
that floats down
floats down…
…you go
lighten up and pass the cup
fifty bucks and that's all you got?
yeah, I love you
there's a white tent that sits
in…
…the raft
fists and chests
BIRDS AT DAWN CLEARING:
get off my branch...
stick legs -they are not
this is my tree
it's getting lighter
I'm…

…to make a song
I might play at my wedding.
there's a choir of church mothers
smiling down on the brown boy
that sings of a woman's worth
in…
…strength
as we scream SQUAAADDDD!
the weight of that bass
hits hard
like Gawd's tears
landing on glow in the dark floors
'cause…
…and other shit
they have no real idea about.
the only song in the club
that allows a hetero male
to gaze into the eyes…

…the trenches, through the fences
Jumped through hurdles and all the obstacles
So relentless, let me vent this
In my sleep, could do it with my…
…(Brace for landing)
Lord knows I really want a Grammy
I've visualized it like 3 in the morning
Me and Wrek and Bernz when…
…we was in Miami
I've manifested this, not illusion
Sacrificed, so my spot is proven
Low was 30, watch out I'm moving
Before you…

…ceviche and fishes
I'm just on this money making mission
Out of town, shelling down, Money Making Mitching
And I've got plans…
…for the work
All this fan love, got some makeup on my shirt
Just know I'm making millions if I make it to a hearse
Before I even make it in…
…me who don't rate, nigga, and I'll show you who is hating
'Home Sweet Home' was my 'Off the Wall'
But still, I've got a 'Thriller' in…

…love and i kill this pain
Want finish it but she come thru in my brain
Don't kill my vibe when you never find happines again
Yeah…
…yeah
[Hook]
Now i'm realize, that girl make real lies
Gettin' tears eyes, that girl make real lies
Now i'm realize, that girl make…
…real lies
Gettin' tears eyes, that girl make real lies
Now i'm realize, that girl make real lies
Yeah yeah uhm uh
[Verse 2]
I'm…

…(Waiting)
Yeah, put money in your bank when you want a vacation
Got the landing smellin' like flavours
And the gov's all know…
…)
[Chorus]
I shoulda got back when I finished recording
Instead, I'm on a Serco bus all the way to the court at like eight in the morning…
…are fallin'
I heard keys on the landing, I think the gov's are walkin'
If I don't call you back tonight, I'ma call you back in the morning…

…got nothing but eyes closed
Fingers holding
Tears we'll never cry
[Verse 2]
If I open up would you climb inside and buckle up?
If my…
…]
I
Still find
You in my mind
Lost in the better times we had, but it's alright
We've got nothing but eyes closed
Fingers holding…
…Tears we'll never cry
[Outro]
She knows my favorite song, hope she tastes me when she hears it
Insert her name right here and make this…

Alice In Wonderland cause your mom was a drug slut you were conceived on acid
And that choke was fucking awkward, you better stop it again
This…
…brought the house down you were planking on your roof
This Farm is fat, both your thighs are Oprah size
If you jumped on my back…
…at your lines
The fact still remains no one watches your match ups online
Bitch, I've done freestyles in my room with more views than all your…
…detested my mother because she had a petit bourgeois pride in her son, the doctor. I cannot tell you how brutishly he ignored…
…what he said to me? He's standing there on the landing, you know, on the verge of tears. He shrieked at me: 'You old fink. You can't…
Vietnam. No, the ultimate American societal sickness was a limp dingus.
My God. If there is a despised, misunderstood minority in this…

…? (Come on) You're not dead? Come on, die. This is Brooklyn Ac', Black Panther. Yo, we coming through. We got a new member in…
I learned most, with my first toke of sherm smoke
Was an accident I put a hatchet in this turncoat
Took cheese…
…these digits
I'm so sick, they got my transcript in every clinic
You so bitch, you got raped in almost every prison
Homeboy, listen…
…are faceless
My hopes have no basis
If you find yourself in the same place
Embrace it and play this
Deep breaths
Glowing street lights…
…shoulders
Tears rolling from my eyes
I realize I feel a whole
Lot older
Life became a
Cold-faced soldier
And sold all my gold…
…looking for
My soul source
This wisdom is what I was born for
So much stored up
So much to let loose
So little time
To try to untie
The knot in this…
