I stand with a blank expression now
and I can’t believe myself
will someone tell me how
did I get here
I am walking
changing slowly
I am chasing
climbing closer

I know that I’ll never be alone
you will never let me go
you are my anchor
hold my hand
while I’m sinking in the sand
no one else could understand
you are my anchor

it seems that I lost track of time
and I can’t believe my mind
would you save me if
I reached out to you
I’m WAITING, watching, standing
I am reaching
climbing closer

I know that I’ll never be alone
you will never let me go
you are my anchor
hold my hand
while I’m sinking in the sand
no one else could understand
you are my anchor yeah
anchor yeah
anchor yeah

I am walking
changing slowly
I am chasing
climbing closer

I know that I’ll never be alone
you will never let me go
you are my anchor
hold my hand
while I’m sinking in the sand
no one else could understand
you are my anchor yeah

from the album God Bless The U.S.A.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now I’m found.
Was blind, but now I see.

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to feel
And grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.

When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Then when we first begun.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now I’m found.
Was blind, but now I see.

by Leonard Cohen
from the album Songs Of Love And Hate

Well I stepped into an avalanche,
It covered up my soul;
When I am not this hunchback that you see,
I sleep beneath the golden hill.
You who wish to conquer pain,
You must learn, learn to serve me well.

You strike my side by accident
As you go down for your gold.
The cripple here that you clothe and feed
Is neither starved nor cold;
He does not ask for your company,
Not at the centre, the centre of the world.

When I am on a pedestal,
You did not raise me there.
Your laws do not compel me
To kneel grotesque and bare.
I myself am the pedestal
For this ugly hump at which you stare.

You who wish to conquer pain,
You must learn what makes me kind;
The crumbs of love that you offer me,
They’re the crumbs I’ve left behind.
Your pain is no credential here,
It’s just the shadow, shadow of my wound.

I have begun to long for you,
I who have no greed;
I have begun to ask for you,
I who have no need.
You say you’ve gone away from me,
But I can feel you when you breathe.

Do not dress in those rags for me,
I know you are not poor;
You don’t love me quite so fiercely now
When you know that you are not sure,
It is your turn, beloved,
It is your flesh that I wear.

by Lenny Kravitz
from the album Are You Gonna Go My Way

I was born long ago
I am the chosen I’m the one
I have come to save the day
And I won’t leave until I’m done
So that’s why you’ve got to try
You got to breath and have some fun
Though I’m not paid I play this game
And I won’t stop until I’m done

But what I really want to know is
Are you gonna go my way ?
And I got to got to know

I don’t know why we always cry
This we must leave and get undone
We must engage and rearrange
And turn this planet back to one
So tell me why we got to die
And kill each other one by one
We’ve got to love and rub-a-dub
We’ve got to dance and be in love

But what I really want to know is
Are you gonna go my way ?
And I got to got to know

Are you gonna go my way ?
‘Cause baby I got to know, yeah

by Lil’ Kim
from the album Notorious K.I.M.

[Lil' Kim]
.. My Aunt Dot
left a glock and some blood on my sheets
Told me clean the shit up, then she hit the streets
Even though I’m her niece, she copped me a piece
Wack-ass caliber, nickel-plated with the silencer
What? She don’t know I like my guns pretty?
Like my boy Castor Troy with the twin-glizzies
I heard a knock at the door {*knock knock knock knock knock*}
To my surprise I saw these two familiar eyes
Who are you?

[Lil' Shanice]
Whattup? I’m Shanice, don’t remember me?

[Lil' Kim]
She called me by my government name, Kimberly
Who sent you?

[Lil' Shanice]
My mom sent me; her name is Dottie
She packed a note in my knapsack along with a shottie

[Lil' Kim]
Hmmph, she was cute; and mad fly
She had the Prada knapsack, with the hat to match
Bavari hiking boots, with the mink bubblegoose
and I could see she was admiring my Minski suit
Then she handed me the note

[Lil' Shanice]
Here – read this

[Lil' Kim]
I just stared her up and down
cause I couldn’t believe this – then I opened it
It said, "Bitches is out to get you;
your so-called friends, put a bomb in your Benz.
I’m on a mission now to do some harm to your friends.
They know where you live, so evacuate the crib.
And oh, the little girl, that’s your cousin Shanice.
Since I can’t be with her, I need you to babysit her.
Besides; she looks up to you – you’re her idol -
and tomorrow is her first violin recital,
and she would be more than happy if you could take her.
Peace, my number’s on the back of the paper, hit me later."
Damn.. what went wrong?
Can’t we all just get along, and make hit songs?
Bitches all up in my ass like a thong
If this was a show, y’all hoes would get "gonged"
Cause if it’s on, then it’s on, bring it on
What the fuck you waitin for? C’mon, let’s get it on
What? What’s takin you so long? I got plans for the future
to bring back your head like Medusa

[Chorus: Lil' Kim (repeat 2X)]

Girls be actin stink, and mad funny
Y’all bitches bleed like me, on the monthly
Can’t stand the pain then pop a "Humphrey"
I know it hurts.. (I’m killin y’all)

[Lil' Kim]
Uhhh, we in the Range in this fucked up weather
It’s snowin and I’m tryin to put the whole shit together
How Laverne, she always wanted to be like me
and dress like me, and look like me
and Nicole, it’s like she lived in my house
Askin me for money, day in – day out
And last but not least the grimiest one Tayesha
She planned it all, come to find out her name is Keisha
C’mon Shanice I’m takin you to my house in L. Conn.
(I wanna go with you!) Uhh, be quiet, and we’ll get along fine

[Lil' Shanice]
C’mon please, I wanna be just like you
600 Mercedes, and 380’s in my doll babies
Crazy baguettes in my barettes; and,
H-class rocks inside my baby G shop
Fuck Barney and Lambchops; I don’t love them hoes!
But anything goes when it comes to bankrolls
Diamonds on my toes, X-and-O’s
Versace hottie in designer clothes
Scoop Lil’ Nique and Jus, then take ‘em to Toys’R'Us
Make em spend they cheese then kick ‘em out and take the bus
I’m the S-the-H-the-A-the-N-the-I-the-C-the-E
but all my friends call me Miss Little Queen Bee
What what? I like the green, know what I mean?
Ever seen The Professional? (uh-huh) Well I come cleaner

[Lil' Kim]
You know what? I like you; little big person
but rule number one – no cursin
Anyway, what you know about that?
You too young for that, when I was your age
I woulda got hung for that
Then I picked up the phone, to call my Aunt Dot
so she could fill me in a little more about the plot
Hmm.. nine-one-seven, eight-five-eight, two-one-two-two
"Hello?" Yo, what’s the deal?
Why these bitches buggin out;
I mean, what’s this all about?
"See it’s sorta like what Tonya Harding did to Nancy
They don’t want you to win no more
Soul Train they don’t want you to attend no more
And I guess that’s why, they ain’t your friends no more
The other day, when I was comin out the grocery store
I saw the bitch Nicole in front of the salon next door"
For real? "Yup, then I choked the bitch out
At least one to the heart, tied up her hands and feet
Through her in my backseat,
then I dumped her on a dead-end street
The other two? Yeah they still linger
But don’t you lift a finger, I’ma get ‘em
so just pray I come home
and when we hang up, get rid of your phone"
Whoo! When Aunt Dot comes, oh brother
It’s like five Bloody Mary’s, one after another
Hmmph, she have you stressed, no wearin white, no sex
And when she get vexed, you guess what happens next
Cause them other two girls, that’s still on the menu
is the reason why the story is to be continued..

[Chorus]

from the album Tails

i want to be by myself, sometimes i do.
i don’t want to be left behind, but sometimes i’m left by you.

i press my tongue to the top of my mouth,
’cause my jaw, it was tired with the thinking.
i stretched my toes to the end of the couch,
’cause my back, it was aching from sleeping.

so what is this weather, and what is this darkness,
and why do i feel so alone?
when will it snow, it’s been raining for hours,
and why do i feel so alone?

and when i’m left at home, when you’re with someone else i’m all alone.

you do not cheat me of my childhood.
you bring me blankets for the walls of my forts.
there is no anger with the eyebrow raised.
when you do the fantastic i am amazed.

so what is this weather, and what is this darkness,
and why do i feel so alone?
when will it snow, it’s been raining for hours,
and why do i feel so alone?

you were leaving some bar, and you’re coming downtown,
you’re not ripping out stitches, but you want me around.
just to call you my love, just to call you my love.

you are the treasure custodian cleaning the moon for me.
scouring the sky so the stars would shine bright.
you stand straight-faced, and tip-toed on top of a ladder,
and wait.

and when i’m left at home, i’m all alone.
but i’d rather be alone with you.

so what is this weather, and what is this darkness,
and why do i feel so alone?
when will it snow, it’s been raining for hours,
why do i feel so alone?

With the masters at work

Last night I had some trouble sleeping..

[1] – Are you, are you, are you using me?
Are you, are you, are you using me?
Are you, are you, are you using me?
Are you, are you, are you using me?

No more will I let it be
You called his name out in your sleep
You’re doing things so suspiciously
And I think that you’re using me, yeah

Don’t hang on me for security
Love is never free
Are you using me?

[Repeat 1]

You pretended like we were friends
I was blinded by sentiment
You complicated what love should be
And I could swear that you’re using me

I keep seeing things I shouldn’t see
I’ve been watchin’ you
Are you using me?

Are you, are you
Are you using me?

Listen, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
Ooh, come on now and talk to me, talk to me
Hey talk to me, talk to me
Hey talk to me, talk to me

For my money, for my money
For my money, for my money
For my money, for my money
(Tell the truth)
For my money, for my money

[Repeat 1]

For my body, for my body
For my body, for my body
For my body, for my body
For my body, for my body

Don’t hang on to me for security
Love is never free, tell me are you

Using, using me, using, are you using me
Using, using me, using, are you using me?

I keep seeing things I should not see
I’ve been watching you, are you using me?

One time, one time (one time, one time)
One time, one time (one time, one time)
One time, one time (one time, tell me)
One time, one time (It’s my desire)
Don’t be such a liar

our love is like water
pinned down and abused
for being strange

our love is no other
than me alone
for me all day
our love is like water/angels
pinned down and abused

all over you, all over me
the sun, the fields, the sky
i’ve often tried to hold the sea
the sun, the fields, the tide
pay me now, lay me down

It’s carved into my head alright

Amounting to nothing
You put this in my head, alright
You put this in my head
Amounting to nothing Amounting to nothing
Try me I’m guilty living life to please you
You dont know who I am
