I Live For The Day Lyrics
Verse 1 I've got time, To watch you spin around in circles Falling through the cracks inside your mind, Thats fine, I've been through the darkest hour Made it to the other side of you, I can live without you Chorus I live for the day I live for the night That you will be desperate And dyin' inside I live for the tears To fall down your face, I live for the words You finally
Verse 1 I've got time, To watch you spin around in circles Falling through the cracks inside your mind, Thats fine, I've been through the darkest hour Made it to the other side of you, I can live without you Chorus I live for the day I live for the night That you will be desperate And dyin' inside I live for the tears To fall down your face, I live for the words You finally
Verse One:
Me and Eric B was coolin' at the Paladium
Seen a all-world covered girl, I said "Hey lady I'm
Sorry if You're in a rush - Don't let me hold ya up
Or interveen or interrupt, but. . .
You got the look - I wanna get to know ya better
I had to let her know - but yo, I didn't sweat her
'Cause if you woulda seen what I was seein'
Almost looked Korean, but European.
When she spoke, her accent was self-explanatory -
Even her body language told the story
Her name was Mahogony - twin's name was Ebony
I said "My name is Ra - and this is Eric B"
Since the music was loud, I said "let's take a walk,
So we could talk and see New York.
Show time doesn't start until one o'clock
And once I entered your mind I wouldn't wanna stop
Caressin' ya thoughts till we was thinkin' the same
Calm ya nerves,
All Messed Up Lyrics
I can't get what I want Stood up shot down and it's all happening again Guess I gotta learn everything the hard way I'll get right back up and do it all over again All messed up no place to go The only way I've ever known All messed up no place to go You don't know what you want Come on and show me something I haven't seen before You're talking like you got it together But it's n

Each mic is a mineral, poetry's protein
Verse is a vitamin - Affects like Codine
So tell me how you feel and I'll reveal
A pill that'll heal ya pain - 'cause I'm real
She musta OD'd 'cause she couldn't resist
She spoke slowly when she told me this, she said
Chorus:
Over Me, She's goin' crazy
She'll rub me on my chest and call me Mr. Sexy
She said she'd have my kids and help me make my next G
Tell me I ain't finesse Mahogony . . .
Verse Two:
So I prescribed her, something to revive
And surprise her, she's liver and much more wiser
Than the light I shine when my brain cells spark,
Come to me so we can glow in the dark
And soon, you can represent the moon
As long as I keep ya in tune
I'll tell ya who ya are and why ya here
Take it in stride 'cause it might take a year
[ Swano ] I woke up laying in this bed I didn't know if I was 'live or dead Have I returned to reality Have I escaped this evil entity? I'v been... Higher than the sky Falling in and out of time Once I saw him die My remorse ain't worth a dime If I only knew what was going on I hear no voices, pray to god that they're gone Someone must have found and then brought me here I hav
We got close and it was almost one
She kissed me slow, but you know how far a kiss can go
F*ck around and miss the show
So I told her to hold that thought real tight
We can finish where we left off later on tonite
Back to the scene of the crime on time
As they introduced the 'Fiend of the Rhyme'
She stood with a birds-eye view of me
Thinkin' of later on of what she would do to me
The back of the room I could see her eyes gloom
Patient, but hopin' that the show was over soon
As the place was ripped in half, she made her way to the front row
So I said "let's go"
I packed my mic as they screamed for an encore
The speakers were blown, plus my mic was sore
Besides I got places to go, ladies to see
And she could tell me how crazy she was over me
We drove off - she s

I hear you in my sleep I've fallen in too deep Sometimes it's hard to keep Secrets, secrets It's like a breath of air I feel it everywhere And still I can't declare Secrets, secrets Gotta keep whispering on the phone at night Gotta keep whispering, gotta get it right Gotta keep whispering 'til the morning l

And couldn't wait to get 'soft and warm', I said,
"I've been watchin' you, watchin' me
Looks I received made it hard to MC
I can take a hint, so I knew that she
Wanted my "Agony Agony Ag-on-y" in her bod-y
Showed her some sights, then I took her to the Condo
She was pipin' hot, but I kept my calm So
She asked how come I don't smile
I said, "Everything's fine, but I'm in a New York state of mind!"
As we reached the kingdom, she said bring some
Champagne, she'll entertain then sing some
Sentimental, songs real gentle,
It hit the spot and you know where it went to
As we embraced I felt her heart pumpin'
I knew she was in the mood for somethin'
So I laid on my back and relaxed
It wasn't the Perignon that made her collaspe
Over me
Chorus
