Lyrics:
bodies are blameless
You cried when we kissedIt was nothing but shadow and mist
Two illusions who touch in a trancemaking love not by choice but by
Esteem that will never die
Heroes by choice or
Heroes by chance
Motive secondary to outcome
Woah
Buried inside an unmarked grave
No stone
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by
And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
in the attic
Like the picture of Dorian Gray
I was rescued by the enemy
That dare not speak it's name
Say hello to your future
I'm just pleased
about where you swim
So be careful what you wish for
You might get it, and then it's too late
The future's knocking at the front door
Beware now
Never liked you any less
And the world's not such
A friendly place, is it?
Can go very cold very quickly
And for a very long time
If the sun by some
need it sometimes
A dream is all I need to get by
Some of us need it sometimes
A dream is all I need to get by
Some of us need it
You were talking
the water from the weeds has soaked the paper
He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through
And his future feels as empty
why?
'cause the brothers that I knew with the rise drove by
Only nice in the days looking down the road
Seeing beautiful girls with the car load
Yeah
wanna walk by faith but I don't know how
I wanna be clean but I don't know how
I wanna live free but I don't know how
It feels like I can't escape
the choice to live your life
Lies in the palm of your hand
You've got the answers you need, just look inside yourself
So much at stake, can't waste our
Hand in hand
Two by two
Naturally everything's born to pair
Look around
Look up and down
Look everywhere
We walk through life on a tightrope like
Hear me, what I've got to say
I know you and get you anyway
See me walking by your side
I'm with you forever day and night
Hey man, I'm your
God is Good
I came to Jesus
I took my Stand
But what I'd surrendered
Was back in my hands
Defeated by failures
Haunted by fears
I cried out
The taxman's in the pocketbook
The pressmen are by the bar
And all the world is at your door.
It's strange that you should lock it up
And preach

Everyday is a winding road, is a winding road, is
balance
To tell if my choice is leaning up or down
And all the shouting voices
Try to throw me off my course
Some by sermon, some by force
Fools
Learn to walk a tightrope
Ever seen a rich nigga go broke?
They putting liens on a nigga things
Publicize your demise, and by all means
Your family
stopping won’t I? And by the time I end up stopping
You’ll be rocking one of the rings you pointed out while shopping with a nigga don’t lie
She’s losing it
balance
To tell if my choice is leaning up or down
And all the shouting voices
Try to throw me off my course
Some by sermon, some by force
Fools
talked with water, and then with the vine.
They leave me no choice.
I must lead them to glory or most likely to death.
They traveled cross
thirty-four PhD’s
Honorary, they are called
Because I defied the rules i’m a dropout
Not by choice, but by fate’s sense of humor
By nature’s design i’m dyslexic
Call me by my name
And in that time of prayer and waiting
Where doubt and reason dwell
A jury sat deliberating
All is lost
Or all is well
Home,
raise
sometimes the young is slain
To the kids in the p.j.'s black babies
brought up in this world where it's wild and crazy child of the Nile
