Ok is this thing on here
Ok it's my turn to talk about it, alright I want to talk about the Lyfe Jennings project Album number 3... now this project kind of reminds me of an ephipany I once had back in the old country ya know Jersey. Now I would hang out at the old arcade and I would be up there watching the little kids come in and they would play the pinball ya know, and they would line up one by one to play the game. The first kid would play until he was out of quarters then he would have to run up to the counter to get more quarters and he would lose his place. So another guy would step up in his spot, so the other guy would play of course until ya know he ran out of course to, but Then he would have to do the same thing ya know go up front and get more quarters so some of the kids ya know... I notice that they came with their big bags full of quarters, ya know thinking that they would be able to play the game all day but eventually they would run out of quarters too and they would lose their spot, but low and behold there was this one kid I mean a short stumpy guy ya know not a lot of kind features but there was an ora about this kid ya know something different... Now you see this kid he bought a kid with him now everybody thought that these two guys were in competition or something, but when the kid would near the end of his gme he would send the other kid to go and get more quarters. So the guy would be on the game, I mean he would be on the game every day for hours I mean until he was ready to leave he would stay on the game And boda boom boda bing that's when it dawned on me that this pinball thing is just like any other thing in life just like any other thing the guy who stays in the game the longest is the guy that brings change |

<i>[Verse 1:]</i>
Look outside your window Tell me what you see Past all the flowers Beyond the trees Is it what you wanted? Your life to be Or is it what you Settle for Is it 'cause they laugh at you And talk about you too They talked about Jesus Christ What makes you think they won't talk about you No need to worry You are a star And you are perfect just the way you are <i>[Chorus:]</i> Keep on dreaming Keep on shining Keep on grinding Don't stop trying Keep on dreaming Keep on flowing Keep on growing Don't stop hoping Don't stop hoping <i>[Verse 2:]</i> (Gwone) Walkin through the graveyard Shovel in your hand Rumors on the street are You just buried a man And he was really talented He just didn't get a chance And now his blood is On your hand Maybe you should dig him up Maybe you should not Maybe you should stop listening to your friends And listen to your heart It's nice to be famous It's nice to be a star But it's also nice to be just who you are <i>[Chorus]</i> <i>[Bridge:]</i> People say the craziest things Craziest things Twenty-five to life he done murdered his dreams Murdered his dreams Ummmhuh, ummmhuh, ummhuh <i>[Chorus x2]</i> |

[INTRO]
You know my momma said there's only two things in life that are constant: That's change and change [1ST VERSE] It feels like somethings' missing but I just don't know, It's like I'm not the same man that I was, no more and all these crazy places that I usually know, are just not as exciting as they were before. I think about u constantly, It surprises me, how I've changed, my friends are coming down on me, saying a player never changes the game. [CHORUS] Those fellows live in Never Never Land right next to peter pan cause nobody wants to grow old, Those fellows live in Never Never Land they'll never understand what it's like to be in love. Never Never Land right next to peter pan cause nobody wants to grow old, Those fellows live in Never Never Land they'll never understand what its like to be in love. [2ND VERSE] It feels like somethings' moving inside of me, my heart is doing backflips in spite of me, and there's no place that I would rather be than with you and my kids, my family I think about u constantly, u gonna be my wife eventually It don't matter what my friends say to me, there's no changing my mind, so you all just pray for me. [CHORUS] Never Never Land right next to peter pan cause nobody wants to grow old, Those fellows live in Never Never Land they'll never understand what its like to be in love. Never Never Land right next to peter pan cause nobody wants to grow old, Those fellows live in Never Never Land they'll never understand what its like to be in love. [BRIDGE] Hold up wait a minute, I'm a hustler don't be putting my woman in it, She ain't got nothing to do with this bullshit, She is a deacon she chills in the pulpit (AH UR WRONG DAWG) I don't even need to say no more, You ain't got the disease, but u expect the cure, Down on your knees praying for that new porche while she's walking out that door, (SHE'S WALKING OUT THAT DOOR) [CHORUS] Those fellows live in Never Never Land right next to peter pan cause nobody wants to grow old, Those fellows live in Never Never Land they'll never understand what it's like to be in love. Never Never Land right next to peter pan cause nobody wants to grow old, Those fellows live in Never Never Land they'll never understand what its like to be in love. [LYFE TO JAY-Z] And I don't care what they told you 30 is not the new 20 its the same old 30 don't be mad at me Jay I'm just the messenger baby, I'm just the messenger! |

Miss my Granny no one else in the world really understands me
Emotions grab me and I find myself on the plane to Miami To feel that sunshine be closer to the water cry one more time Sippin' on Patron all my pain my worries are gone Then my phone rings, should I pick it up and go back to reality Or should I just stay, live in my fantasies one more day [Chorus] Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm (And if I die tonight it's alright) Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm (I'm gonna be alright it's alright) Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm (And if I die tonight it's alright) Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm (I'm gonna be alright it's alright) Kiss my Granddad, no homo just know he's so sad Lost his best-friend and nobody saying I'm sorry is gonna help him Feel like smokin, gotta get away from this heart that's broken Drop top rollin' on my way to heaven or to hell which ever's open Then my phone rings, should I pick it up and go back to reality Or should I not move bury all my sorrows and nobody will know the full moon [Chorus] Life is so confusing nothing makes sense at all Why is it an enemy what am I doing wrong Why am I hesitating, everybody's telling me to be patient Why do I feel like time is wasting Gotta figure out what God is saying [Chorus] |
