No. It really doesn't.

Noone knows what I'm talking about here? I don't think anyone here has ever felt lyrics in their lives.. Like i said, good music is EVERYWHERE but that's not what this thread's about,

 

Soul Position - 1 Love

 

It goes stop, look, listen to your heart

Stop look listen to the children

The answer's been with us from the start

The look in their eyes let's me know god's willin'

I'm a simple man, I don't have all the answers

But I know it starts in the hearts of men

And I don't think it's too much to ask for

if you can't do it for you, do it for them

So you don't wanna' be a role model

but like it or not, you're still makin' music for them

You just might be the one they follow

so think about bein' a little more truthful to them

I promised that I'd never be ashamed of my rhymes

and I'd leave behind something that's useful to them

Years ago I made up my mind

and said, I'd never make life more confusing to them

What about you, you think it's to late?

There's no better time than right now for you to begin

But first you gotta' let go of the hate

put your guns down

You wanna' fight?

Then do it with pens

Hold you head up and stand tall

even when you lose in the end

What matters most is you gave your all

so you can never in you life look stupid to them

The experiance you gained should be admired

not just whether you lose or win

Cause even gold must go through fire

only to become brand new in the end

I realize I can't change the world

no matter how much I try

But hopefully I can start with you

one line at a time

one rhyme at a time

Soul Position - Take Your Time

 

Take your time young man

Don't you rush to get old

Keep it in your stride

Live your life, live your life

 

This goes out to everybody, movin too fast

You do slow down

Yoo many people just runin face first into confrontation

Ehen its not even neccesary

You need to think about your actions

I've ben there I don wanna go back

None of y'all - nobody's goin home

 

For I, I try not to walk the beef route

But everybody wanna speak out

Forgot when I was younger

Cats try to knock your teeth out

Slap you in your mouth piece

Until some blood leaks out

As fast as they rolled on you, they will be out

Have you bunny hopping fists is

everytime you them a block from your house

But you walkin the scenic route

I've seen cats take it to the max pull their heaters out

But this is rap, so it ain't what it should be about

There's a lotta ways we can settle our differences

Whatever you choose let me know what your decision is

Talk on the telephone or clash in front of witnesses

Tweaks swords with sentances until your pride blemishes

So you actin like you want it but iknow your frontin

Cuz you the type of cat that starts static over nothin

With a chip on your shoulder like the world owes you somethin

Mad cuz your name got cold and wasnt buzzin slowdown

 

[Chorus]

 

You got an appetite for destruction

Cool, we can break bread

Whatever you feel, we can break legs

I make sure all your dawgs get fed

But talk is cheap, and I'm concerned about what ain't said

I seen cat's outnumber mine three to one

Sellin wolf tickets and thinkin we had won

I knew they didnt have to fight like us when we was young

Cuz we was chasin them cats down the street when they was done

You aint hard cuz you can kill in a song

Hard is being a man and admittin you were wrong

Hard is be squashin my beef with you

Cuz if I dont I might be six feet deep with you

It benifits nobody, not me or you

You can get got and they can get me too

I'm man enough to admit it now, life is changin

And we need to slow down

 

[Chorus]

Soul Position - Share This

 

Study this as you study your first born

My first song was pain personified in song

The longest sequence is looped for days long

Where bass kicks are fierce and snares are

Known to drop a lot quicker than a child's tears

And drown out the drama that I didn't want to share

The load I wouldn't wish upon my enemies to bear

The times I used to tell myself you didn't want to hear

Until the reason in my rhyme become clear

Now what I write makes the load a lot lighter

The story of my life epitomizes imperfection

As a musical where every scene seems to lack direction

And I stand center stage stunned by what's happening

Blinded by the lights, heroin's action

Although I never asked for this lead role

It seems that God decided it a long time ago

I was chosen for this

Given the gift to gain and maintain the crowd's cheers

I break bread over beats with like-minded peers

And share the story of my last trip into the atmosphere

On the ninth cloud, I-sanity[?] in style

Arms outstretched and Hell in God's breath

I saw the stairway to heaven

And counted one-hundred and forty-four thousand steps

I wanted to climb but it wasn't my turn yet

So I returned to earth just before the sun set

And I could stare, waiting for this golden opportunity to share

 

Now I share this with you

I'll share this with you

With all of you

I'll share this with you

I'll share this with

Each and every

One of you

 

Now in my younger days that quickly passed

I fell asleep in history class

Not enchanted my past misery

I'd rather chase down the present with a glass of heinousy

And tilted my flower-like childhood wilted when my innocence was secluded

Plus the water we gave to it stayed polluted like the veins of cocaine users

My blood stream's still a little murky from flash-backs of murder scenes

Medical emergencies that fell upon deaf ears

Over 8 million stories in a city that nobody wants to hear

But as bad as it appears, I am happy that I'm here

 

To share this with you

To share this with you

To share this with

All of you

To share this with you

Share this with you

Share this with

Each and every one of you

 

Heh, and share I will

I'll share the nights where fist fights left somebody's body lying still

The ice grills, the cold of wire(?) night's chill

I'll even share the blood spill

The memory of all my loved ones killed

The unpaid bills

The pain of a terminally ill

My ill will towards my rivals

My approach towards hip-hop survival

The circumstance that made some suicidal

The same circumstance that made others homicidal

The signs of the vital

The ways of the trial

The dope fiends that walk around my block in denial

The short life cycles

The minds that lie idle

My people that got out of court on a missed trial

My hunger to become more grounded in the Bible

Is smiled on behalf of my last day's arrival
