1.No Turning Back
She was just 19 years old
When she left her home
The morning desert sun was at her back
She knew right then
There would be no truning back
Leaving home was the best thought that she had
But now in a parking lot in washington
She asked to herself what had she done
Earth mother bear and eagle was on the run
Two more nights till colorado
And the scene was done
And if flying back home
Was as easy as the run
She realized the there'd be no turning back
Where will you take me？
What will we do？
Where will you take me？
What will we do？
Then a man drove off in a bright white cadillac
She got in that ride and she never came back
She knows what she needs
She said it feels so good to me
She knows what she needs
She said it feels so good to me
Ain't no turning back
2.Dreamin'
Everyone starts with the sweetest dreams
Living long life living beautiful scenes
Make a million dollars wearing gold and jewels
Drive a big black benz or a carribean cruise
Or maybe you dream that you just can't lose
Or playin blues is the path that you choose
Or perhaps your dream of going back to nature's plan
And just live off the land and be a natural man
Or of a beautiful girl who's holding your hand
Lovin the one you're with, with her beautiful tan
Like you're holding the riff that laying in your hand
Or you dream of playing band from electric lady land
Riffs just like jimi hendrix
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
'stop daydreaming!'
That's what my teachers used to say
While they kick a bunch of crap that i forgot anyway
Educatin's important to make a man complete
But everything i learned in school
I learned again on the street
Now my time is booked cause i've got the look
And when i walk on my path
You know i can't be shook
Stay alert in this day you have to go for yours
The force conspires to help brothers
That help others open doors
Wars and battles, rage round us everyday
While the real troops keep our heads up while we play
This game of chance that they busy calling life
Can be quite a disappointing ride
You can't blame the youth and you can't blame god
Now who you ganna blame wheh the dogs in the yard
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
Wisdon asks 'are you ready for this？'
Experience says 'the kid can't miss'
Professional advice got you thinking twice
Don't roll the dice if you can't pay the price
The omen says 'walk towards the light
The first impulse is free and it's always right'
Doubt suggests 'what you think you can achieve？'
You're just a philly kid from south 2 street
Rappin blues and playig guitar
Now i'm chillin sky's the limit
I'm a rock and roll star
Making funky music hit records are exploding
The free wind is blowing
Higher than the liars jmelting in the fire
How high can you ride？
The greatest victory it was
When we believe in legends getting busy like the man
They call 'school's in session' addressing all you people
Like i know who you are 'cause streets are universal and the
world is wide
But no matter what you're running from you just can't hide
If you seek the truth, the truest kid you'll find
So trace your tracks a fact's a fact
Three aces one king and a one eyed jack
You ain't going no where until its time to leave
Your wind's just a little story that i'm starting to read
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
Dreams are like fish you gots to keep on reeling
Are you feeling the feeling that i'm feeling
3.Roaches
4.Rodeo Clowns
Come on
Sweepin' the floors
Open up the doors yeah
Turn on the lights
Gettin' ready for the night
Nobody's romancin'
Cause it's too early for dancin'
But here comes the music
Bright lights flashin'
To cover of your liquor
So many people, so many powers,
So many reasons to buy another round drink it down
Just another night on the town
With the big man, money man better than the other man
He got the plan with the million dollars
Give a damn but
When nobody understands
He'll become a smaller man
The bright lights keep flashing
Man the women keep on dancin'
With the clowns yeah, yeah, yeah
Pick me up when i'm down yeah, yeah
Rodeo clowns yeah, yeah, yeah
Pick me up when i'm down
The disco ball spinning
All the music and the women
And the shots of tequila
Man they'll say that they need ya
But what they really need
Is just a little room to breathe
Teeny bopping disco queen
She barely understands her dreams
Of belly button rings
And other kinds of things
Symbolic of change
But the thing that is strange
Is that changes occurred
And now she's just a part of the herd yeah, yeah, yeah
Man i thought that you heard yeah, yeah
The changes occur yeah, yeah, yeah
She's just a part of the herd yeah, yeah
Lights out shut down
Late night wet ground
You walk by, look at him but he can't look at you yeah
You might feel pity but he only feels the ground because
You understand moods
But he only knows let down
By the corner there's another one
Reaching out a hand
Coming from a broken man
Well you try to live
But he's done trying
Not dead but definitely dying
With the rest of the clowns yeah, yeah, yeah
Pick me up when i'm down yeah, yeah
Rodeo clowns yeah, yeah
Pick me up when i'm down
Sweeping the floors
Open up the doors yeah
Turn on the lights
Getting ready for the night
Nobody's romancing 'cause it's too early for dancin'
But here comes the music
5.Numbers
praise god, for it was written in numbers
Soon you'll know of the great joy we feel
Today day to be able to speak freely
And talk eye to eye
With a small group of americans
We feel that the time has come
For your nation to awaken
To its true spiritual import
And we wish you everything in our power
To that realization
Four mourning doves searching in the park
Saying don't be confused when the night is dark
Eleven white swans swimming in a black lake
Told me keep it real and you'll find who's fake
Two cedar trees half submerged in the water
Don't prophesize about sons and daughters
One new master of the form tai chi
Friends of the accuser and the accusee
One pimp using songs as his hussy
Won't be here next year to tell you 'bout nothing
Two happy kids playing basketball
Til a war broke out and killed them all
A bunch of ideas like fireflies
An eighteen-year-old girl with stars in her eyes
We saw the gentle trickster on the highway tonight
Keep your mouth closed and your eyes open wide
Though the roof may leak in many places
Shining faces shining faces
May she sleep in peace
And wake up in my arms
Some day soon some day soon
Some day soon some day soon
The separation from unity
Is the descent of the angels upon the ladder of consciousness
The return to unity is the ascent of the angels upon the ladder
The descent is good
But the unity that comes is expressed diversity
But in diversity there would be no concept of separation
Those that were numbered
Had a path to follow
Fly as swift as the swallow
Where no enemies can follow
The path that was laid for the righteous man
Don't promote the fool
Claiming he's the wisest man
As they slander our name in shame
When our aim is to do what comes natural
We're hatchin' the fireflies on a river
Feelin' straght from my toes, knees, kidneys to my liver
Clouds drop down the dew
My friends what about you
Clouds drop down the dew
My friends what about you
Though the roof may leak in many places
Shining faces shining faces
May she sleep in peace
And wake up in my arms
Some day soon some day soon
Some day soon some day soon
Though the roof may leak in many places
Shining faces shining faces
May she sleep in peace
And wake up in my arms
Some day soon some day soon
Some day soon some day soon
6.Relax
Let's all just relax
And get into this groove
The room's starting to move
Now turn the red lights on
You know the kind that i like
Deep blues and reds
With purple highlights
But don't forget my oohhs
And fade in my ahhs
Fade out the parades
And the charades
Making music like love is made
And lovers wait patiently
And with joy
For the right moment
To explor in passion
Why everlasting love is everlasting
But don't forget my oohhs
And fade in my ahhs
Ther's no need to argue for better position
Realize the moment that you're in is magic
Stellare regions cry everything has its season
Everything happens for a reason
So who are we to worry at any rate
The plane that crashed
We missed 'cause we were running late
And if success eludes you
Then you must choose to do
What other people wouldn't do
But don't forget my oohhs
And fade in my ahhs
So as cold night fades into darkness
Harken to the fire
Where you may find some peace
As many people pass
Some good and some bad
But this fire glows stronger yet
And burning bright reminds us
To ever be reborn
The sun sets soon
Uprises the moon
The sun sets soon
Uprises the moon
7.Do It For Free
You keep takingand taxing
Faking and i can't relaxing
You're making me way too uptight
When you push and fight
Pull and funk your way to the front
You think i'm on stage to pull a stunt
I'm amazed by your capacity
At winding me up
So that i can't release you see
You see me backstage
And engage me in your rhythm
My head is swimming
This place is filled with smoke and women
You told me that the music couldn't be much phatter
I said i got a girlfriend
You said it didn't matter
She started pressing up
And i was getting kinda heated
The pressure's building up
And release is what i needed
She's begging and pleading
Begging and pleading
I'm pressed against the wall
Like a piece of graffitti
She needs me, she needs me, she-needs-me
Could you do it for free？
Could you do it for me？
Could you do it for free？
Could you do it for me？
Late last night i had a crazy vision
I was on stage on my musical mission
Aiming at love of a godly kind
Til love's light shone out
Nearly making me blind
I've heard of flying doves
Birds of a feather
I've heard of loving lace
I've heard of loving leather
I've heard of loving one night
And writing love letters
The way i love this girl
I could never forget her
Sometimes lovers wait
Sometimes i want to get her
Sometimes love is worse
Sometimes love is better
I've heard of love passing
And i've heard of love severed
The way i love this girl
I'm gonna love her forever
Could you do it for free？
Could you do it for me？
Could you do it for free？
Could you do it for me？
I had a feeling of hunger
When i first met your eyes
There is no suprise
I can feel you over years
And many miles
Though separations occur
It's all part of life
Some people wait forever
Some never wait a night
You have to give it time babe
Please let love breathe
You're the one i desire
I'm the one that you need
Our love will be complete
Just like a seed that's planted
The loving comes strong
I hope that you can stand it
I never planned that it would work out this way
So when the sun rises please dont leave me babe
I could love you forever tonight
8.Honor And Harmony
No need to pull some weight around
But then i ain't gonna just sit here
Like a clown and just wait around
I'm taking what i've earned to be taking
And you know you only get stronger
When your heart is asking
But me i've had enough of walking around for some red tape
You know it's just a fake
I say it's a big mistake
And we're all human
So there's no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
We'll surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony...
Come on!
What shall we choose to be our tactics
In this age of computer taxes oh no
When in this new era to come
We shall be organized and not supervised
From the physical to the spiritual
All our works will be so critical
Our offense and mental will soar
Our ornamental will be so pure
And we won't sweat the expense
In the new millenium
We are raising through the fog
Helping the healing god
The next awakening is you
And we're all human
So there's no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
We'll surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony...
Come on!
9.Kick Drum
Kick, kick with the drum lick
Talkin' 'bout a girl named nikki nikki suckin' on my (whuh？)
She can't hang with the dang-a-lang

Swing low, baby swing low
In case you didn't know
That's the way it goes
10.Friday Night
I saw you at the bar
I was laughing with some friends
I saw you turn your head
I was checking you instead
I asked you if you would like to dance
I really wasn't trying to get into your pants
Not to say that you're not a beautiful young lady
But i drive a chevy nova
And i thought you liked mercedes
Soon enough though
We were allured
Bumping and grinding out on the dance floor
With the system so loud
The vibrations so pulsing
You whispered in my ear
But i couldn't hear nothing
Steered me over in the corner
And kissed me on the neck
That's when i decided ok what the heck
I put my hands on your hips
And i kissed you right back
You kissed me like a shark
That's sniffing on a snack
And then you said 'my boyfriend never kissed me like that'
I said 'boyfriend' you didn't say he was around
On this friday friday night
When i came and rocked your town
On this friday night
When the feeling's alright
Rockin rock steady grooves
In the middle of the night
Everything is heated up
And nobody's standing still
With my arm around my girl
And a hundred dollar bill
The song was over
So we headed for a drink
And whatta you think
She gave another guy a wink
Who came over for a kiss
And asked the girl 'who's this？'
She said 'that's g. love you know g. and special sauce？'
Then he said 'i'm getting louie kid you better get lost'
I asked the girl 'who's louie？'
And she said 'that's my man'
Women women i just can't understand
Then i says 'i don't want to hear about girl problems
And if you got a problem babydoll i can solve them'
But i feel you're gonna get me in trouble
So c'mon let's leave this bar
And go out clubbing on the double
Girl's putting me in a trance
All because she wants to dance
And get down with the man
Who brought the sound
On this friday friday night
When i came and rocked your town
On this friday night
When the feeling's alright
Rockin rock steady grooves
In the middle of the night
Everything is heated up
And nobody's standing still
I'm chilling with my girl
And a hundred dollar bill
I can just tell
A girl like you's a deadend
Pressing up against me
Talking about i got a boyfriend
Now here he comes looking for you
On the dance floor
While you're pusing on my knee
Talkin' 'bout i love you more
I'm new in town
Bout i'm no stranger to this
I'm not trying to exit
With a hit and run fix
I get my lvoing on the run
And i like having fun
But i don't sneak around
And i don't gotta gun
Now give me three steps
Like the boy lynyrd skynrd
There's more drama in this room
Than a soap so i figured
Maybe i'll get your digits
And maybe i will call
And maybe we'll slip
Into the backroom down the hall
Or maybe i'll get jacked up
By your angry boyfriend louie
'cause his eyes are getting redder
While his anger's busy stewing on the fire
The little trick in your brought out
On this friday friday night
When i came and rocked your town
On this friday night
Everything is alright
Rock steady grooves
In the middle of the night
Everything is heated up
And nobody's standing still
I chillin' with my girl
And a hundred dollar bill
11.Rock And Roll
This is rock n' roll shouts out
Back to the rappers
A lot of people stake claims
Saying hip hop doesn't matter
But really what could be phatter than
Jungle j.b's beats and streetside sounds
Profound are the sounds
That i was hearing
When at the basketball league
This kid said 'yo come here and
Put these head phones on your ears'
I was converted then
And practiced it for years
Rap music, like jazz, funk and r＆b
Blues reggae rock n' roll, and rock steady g.
Will be around forever
And its never going out
That's why i took this time to spell these lyrics out
I wanna give thanx to the lyricists mc's
And dj's that brought me near to this
Blastmaster, krs-one the teacher
Run d-m-c and the movie beat street
Erik b. and rakim was paid in full
De la soul came along and broke all the rules
I remember when my girl bought me tribe called quest
We broke up later but i kept the cassette
Kool moe dee, doug e. fresh, big daddy kane
Main source, pharcyde and dana dane
Steady b on the hilltop
With lady b on power 99 west philly
Cypress hill, the goats and das efx
Tupac, epmd
Lets see who's next
Jungle brothers, gang starr and bizmarkie jazzy jeff, the fresh
prince
Puts summer in my ears
Slick rick, funk doobie and the beastie boys
And all the rest that make some noise
There's plenty more people that's comin on
And the list could run
Til the break of dawn
But right now yo
Its back to the bluesman
Trippin', rollin', flyin' or just cruisin'
Yeah fire it up
Eh yo do it right
We gonna go go until the mornin light
Its justa rock n' roll
A little bit of rock n' roll
I like a rock and roll
And give me some rock n' roll
Oh la oh la yeah
12.Love
Baby we've been through a lot
And times sure have changed
Everybody's leaving town
Looking for better things
But i found what i want
And i got no problem working
I wish to god
That my heart would stop hurting
Shops closing down
Factories outdated
People so frustrated
My whole life is changing
Just trying to find some solid ground
A little house with a picket fence
How's that sound
Love is all i need
Love is all i need
I've seen tears that are
Falling like leaves from the trees
Houses boarded up and they
Threw away the keys
But this town is where we're born
And this town is where we're staying
I'll never ever turn my back
On you ever again
Come on let's be together
I got some money put aside
And if i make it big
Would you take a little ride
Would you promise to always
Stay by my side
Woudl you give me true love
And have nothing to hide
Would you give my your love
Would you give me your love
Would you give me your love
If you want to give me your love babe
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
We can make a change in our life babe
Tonight
It's alright
It's alright
13.Thank You(Around The World)
14.Gimme Some Lovin'
Gimme some lovin' early in the morning
I just woke up with this appetite
Gimme some love in the morning light
Gimme some lovin' early in the morning
I just woke up with this appetite
Gimme some love in the morning light
Some people like it in the afternoon
But i don't think that i can wait that soon
Give me some love in the mornin light
Some people like it late at night
I could wait that long but i don't think i might
Give me some lovin in the mornin light
I'm gonna love you soft and love you sweet
I can feel your heart beat
I need your attention to get me started right
I'm gonna wake you up with a kiss on the cheek
Come a little closer open up to me
Good morning baby good mornin baby
Open your eyes just a little bit
Good morning sunshine i can't resist
Dreaming about you baby all through the night
15.Amazing
