[Rick Ross]. Yeah,. Boss. Bouncing in my Chevrolet. Reminiscence on the past. Everything ain't adding up. Had to stop and do the math. Yeah, It's large, but the front a faade.
He's my brother and I love him like myself. (He's my brother and I love him like no one else). He's my brother and I love like myself. Like brothers we stand apart.
Out here in the desert, it's an unforgiving land. The sun don't show no mercy on a hot and thirsty man. My soul cried out for water but every teardrop fell in vain.
There's shattered glass on the rocks by the riverbed. Where I used to go to try and clear my head. That's where I found that life is just a game. And that's where I heard the night first call my name.
Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack. I went out for a ride and I never went back. Like a river that don't know where it's flowing. I took a wrong turn and I just kept going.
We've lived around here most all of our lives. Did most anything we wanted to do. We will celebrate every 4th of July. Just a little tamer than most of the rest of us do.
Will it really help me to learn. About Frederick The Great and when Rome burned?. Wish they'd skip over me when it's my turn. . All this useless information.
There was a young man named Arthur Gordon. Heir to a large family fortune. Walking 'round, all prissy and full of himself. Pissing money, showing his wealth.
Close your eyes and slip away. To the dream of your fancy. Close your eyes and float downstream. To where the marsh grass dances. . Take you down where the air is thick.
Devil's driving down the track. Helen's wheels they won't turn back. Engine racing down a one way street. Speeds chasing that red line heat. . Into the blackness into the night.
There's a secret that we all share. In the darkest hours of the night. You can swear on your Bible. Or cut the throat of your rival. . I've been taking my life in my hands.
What would induce you to swear your allegiance to God, tonight. Joined at the hip to a million volt switch of the light, alright. You want to find out, what the planet's about.
Hey! Hey, Baby!. I wanna know. if you'll be my girl.. . When I saw you walking down the street,. I said that she's the kind of girl I'd like to meet..
Hey, hey, hey baby. I want to know if you'll be my girl. Hey, hey, hey baby. I want to know if you'll be my girl. . When I saw you walking down the street.
Baby I guess you know my story. Baby I guess you know my side. It seems I've traded love for glory. But I'm still not satisfied. Given all the years. All the cries and cheers.
[Feat. Anette Olzon From Nightwish]. . I surrender to your love. And though I'm torn apart. Fresh before my eyes. I got a heart full of fire. . I called the bluff.
I heard the sound. I heard the sound in the air that night. The same sound gets me through tonight. I heard it on my radio. . I remember back in '84. Still hadn't learned the wicked ways of the world.
Tongue tied, black eyed, left for dead. Obscene, vaccine, excites the head. Let it bite. . I bit your hand and spit it all in pieces. You're a lie. And now the truth comes out.
Here I am alone. How am I holding on?. Breathing hardly, need releasing. How am I holding on?. . Blue sky ends. Rain it clouds my life again. And I know.
I'll set out one day. Maybe you will follow. Come what may. Oh, a glass of fear to swallow. . Got to get it over. If black and white were blind like in a dream.
