Calico

Calico
Alien Ant Farm
So make it real
Just make it real
That s not a reason to fire me
That ain t no real reason
It s funny things cheapen when we disagree
If things got any worse then cheap would turn free
Chorus:
Calico cats and calico dreams
That ain t too real
Just make it real
Feel all the seasons flood through you and me
And see what trouble she s in
But that s not a reason to fire me
That ain t no real reason
Chorus 2:
Calico cats and calico dreams
That ain t too real
Just make it real
Collisions hurt and abrasions bleed
It s hard to deal when all you do is feel
Campfires swell into monsterous things
That summer heat that s winter deep
Bridge:
And all your wild winds
They couldn t stop me from flying
Chorus 2
Just make it real

Attitude

Tag: Alicia Keysadmin @ 4:47 pm

Attitude
Alien Ant Farm
Maybe I act on confused behavior
Maybe waves crash like semi-trailer
Maybe I ll spend my off-time without you
It seems like we need our own space
And all the time I wasted away
I don t feel good unless you stay
And all the time I chased you away
Simply to catch back up with
Chorus:
Your solitude is welcome
Your attitude is welcome
All you see is red lights behind me
Maybe this isn t what you wanted
baby
I don t blame you for falling backwards
No one s ever quite confused you this way
All this time we wasted away
We don t feel good unless were gray
And all the times I chased you away
I simply don t feel good
Chorus
All this time
we heard alarms
Come to find
we fell apart
This whole thing has crashed down
crashed down
All this time
we heard alarms
Chorus
You are welcome

Streets Of New York
Alicia Keys
Nas Alicia Keys
Nasty, yeah, yeah New York, New York
Hey yo black it s time again, yeah, yeah
New York, New York
Come here, yeah, yeah
New York, New York
Hey yo black it s time

*”yeah, yeah, hey yo black it s time” - continues throughout song*

Nas
If you knew my streets
You would know all everybody talk about is who got beef
Who snitchin, who told police
Who came home, who still gone, who restin in peace
Now they killin over music money, not drugs, rap replaced it
Cause thugs with no brains got no patience
New jacks I pistol whip em with the funky rhythm I be kickin
Musician and flatten composition
A pain, I m like Saddam Hussein
Still alive lookin at his dead children s burnt remains
I burnt the game, learnt you lames a new lesson
Your crew s soft man, ya ll need some new weapons
The P s breathe Warriorz and skullies and Timmies
Around mixed, spics, niggaz and giddies
From my ghetto kings in deep thought we don t blink
But don t think we wastin our time
It s a New York State of Mind

Chorus #1 - Alicia Keys
New York, New York, New York
New York City, whoa oh
New York, New York, New York
New York City, baby

Alicia Keys
It s like a jungle, out here
So much struggle, out here
And my dream s still unphased
Greed still the cousin of death
Always feels like always somethin farther time
In the Streets of New York
New York state of mind, New York State of mind

Alicia Keys
All I see is street homes
And who it s holdin, our people
Only comforts the brain
It s like I m going insane
The revolution has to start, don t waste no time
In the Streets of New York
New York state of mind, New York state of mind
C mon

Chorus #2 - Alicia Keys
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of mind New York City
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of crime New York City
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big dreams New York City
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big schemes

Alicia Keys
Oh, break the game
Just ain t the same
Baby loves and girls with no shame
Can t get away get away , epidemic plague
Every hood in every state
Don t have no reasons cause relieve is hard to find

Break - Alicia Keys
In the streets of New York New York state of mind - 4X
*”New York state of mind” is also repeated in background*

Rakim
I m from the home of a million legends and trend settin
A lot of footsteps to follow, I ve been steppin
Mind stressin tryin to find a record crime shreddin
Time precious, I ain t have rest since nine eleven
I live fast, hustle like today is my last
I get cash, the struggle s like a day on the Ave.
Crack bein raw, gats squeezin off
Manhattan squeezin off, from cats who tease with war
The eve of the Apocalypse, evil keep movin politics
Every block is at risk, the metropolitan metropolis
The opposite of Liza Minelli and Frank Sinatra
Alicia Keys, Nas and Ra the gangsta s opera
So New York City walk with me, talk gritty
It s up to us New York it s our city
Here the man come with the anthem, hands up
It s time the thrill is back New York, let s stand up

Chorus - w ad libs

Rakim - talking behind Chorus
Oh yeah, crucial Keys
Your God Rakim Allah

Why must we argue over the same things
Just to make your friend go back again

Gotta get out of the bed
And take a look what s going on

Samsonite Man
Alicia Keys
I don t wanna do this over and over
He s a man so full of style and grace
Any woman being impressed
Takes a smile and paints it on your face
Makes you feel like you ve been blessed
Promises things so special
Seems to come right from a song
Soon as you begin to feel secure
Turn around and he is gone
Packing his bagsgotta gogotta go
Packing his bagsgotta go
He s a Samsonite Man
Maybe he is just a rollin stone
Wandering from here to there
Searching for a place to call his home
Wonder if he even cares
So many years of heartache and pain
That s all you seem to know him for
Is it youor is it he to blame?
Whenever he walks out your door
Packing his bagsgotta gogotta go
Packing his bagsgotta go
He s a Samsonite Man
Where you re always running toaway from me
If the wind blows you in my direction
You d come through the rendezvous
Forget about your good attention
Leave me lonely and confused
Mr.Samsonite pack a bag
That is my suggestion
From here on out you will be leaving
My distraction yeah
So I know the game baby
And it will never be the same no no no no no
cause now I got him
Packing his bagsgotta gogotta go
Packing his bagsgotta gogotta go
Packing his bagsgotta gogotta go Now you gotta go
Packing his bagsgotta go I can t take it no more
Packing his bagsgotta gogotta go What do I love him for

Nobody Not Really
Alicia Keys
Who really cares?
Who really cares when I talk?
What I feel?
What I say?
Nobody not really
Who wants to takethe time to find a stand?
I would like someone to heal me with some empathy
That I can t find
Nobody not really
Maybe I m invisible to the world
Is there anyone in the world even think of me
As more than just a hopeless cause
Maybe the world is not my block
My stoop
My life
My dreams
My anythinganything
Who wants to help?
Oh but she s so tired
Powerfulbut you re not here
I m alone in a big empty space with

Define what s within

Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain t got you

Some people search for a fountain
Promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that s the only way to prove you love them

And in a world on a silver platter
And wondering what it means
No one to shareno one who truly cares for me

Some people want it all
But I don t want nothing at all
