Since the last time, since the last time
It's been two years since we rock stages together
We covered bases together and whether we all agreed or not
20/20 vision is hindsight and now we got that so we done got back
Some of our soldiers have fallen, so many years of toiling
Touring, tears falling, naw pouring jaded from the industries
Jabs a lil' slower like Muhammad Ali but still we able to last
So we go in the studio, it felt new but yet in a good way
It felt old routines, we did came back so lucid, we was boosted
We juiced it and came up with some tracks that's stupid
And people responded to 'em, heads on the blocks
With locks and baggie jeans, the whole scene was fond to 'em
And how we got the labels kissing our hind parts
We desired art and never sold out for the high chart positions
I have been a thousand places
Seen a million faces since the last time
(Since the last time)
I have been a thousand places
Seen a million faces since the last time
(Since the last time)
Many rap groups attempt to latch to the popular cultures statutes
And thus they detach their roots from the soil that kept them loose
And made what they delivered so true
There's a desert waste land of past artists that's so cruel
Feeling thrown out like woody in toy story two
And yo we felt that but let me tell you Satan, he dealt that
I think it's time to give him his deck back, c'mon now
I have been a thousand places
Seen a million faces since the last time
(Since the last time)
I have been a thousand places
Seen a million faces since the last time
(Since the last time)
Since the last time

I’ve been lost in my own ways and I’m getting weary (How far is heaven)
And I know that I need to change my ways of living (How far is heaven)
From church to Liquor store we search for healing
Big crowded world filled with lonely humans
I’m a M.C. battling with melody envy
Cuz melodies the only thing that seems to sooth me
So we rock organs adjust the B-3’s
Have the folks clap to the rap taking it
Back to the color - purple - church
Where ladies shouting’ joy in the midst of hurt!
Revolutionaries have a curled fist at first
Then years pass and it turns to a clasp
They ask in the midst of all
God show me ways to resist the fall!
Yes yes yawl
Pressure pressure the whole under
Can't stop the crime can't stop the killing
Watch dem life dem ah keep going under
Somebody lend ah hand we hafta save dem
Roots and culture
We have to teach dem
Cause it ah the root of dem life
Bigger bigger blessings they hope they receive them
Pray for them every night
I gotta change my ways
I need you every day
Don't wanna make no excuses
My life is so confusing
Way down deep inside
I wanna tell ya what's on my mind
so sick of tryin I'm dyin
My heart hurts so I can't keep from cryin

Yo
What can happen on an average beautiful day? You never know. Summer brings seasonal changes; it gets hot for a brother. On a beautiful sun- shiny day, I felt real free check out what happened to me.
A nice breeze going through my hair, I’m loving how it feels right now! Beautiful people around: man, women, child. Kids with the Hula hoops hips going round. Mothers breast-feeding, kids lips pressing down. Beautiful-ist women: white, yellow, red, black, brown and dreads. Melting pot going down! Definitely an aphrodisiac crowd. And it’s time for me to go on stage right now! I take command of the mic like POW! Six o’clock white woman in the 6th aisle. She and her friend be smiling at me so wild, and I must admit she has a beautiful smile!
I’m loving the sunshine, can’t help the way I feel, in the sunshine
Folks to the right won’t ya raise ya hands and the folks to ya left won’t ya raise ya hands.
From the front to the back won’t ya raise ya hands everybody in the joint won’t ya raise ya hands.
After the show there was an autograph signing and she squeezed back stage and got in line and…I was wrapped up with the fans Sharpie in my hand, there she goes again, beautiful smile long hair, brushed across my hand like silk I swear, no lie. This is not me trying to deny who I am nor my race, I know my black sisters are constantly debased, and the truth is black berries are my taste but I’m high off possibilities of this thing blossoming so I just give it a try. As she handed her num… I felt a little numb inside of my mind feeling like I just betrayed all of my kind. But without no delay, without more to say, without no consideration for my race she said,”yo why don’t you come to my place”. I said, “right away”
I’m loving the sunshine, can’t help the way I feel, in the sunshine.
Many would have me say that this girl was evil. We both human beings and I know we equal, but we hung out and talked and we walked and things. And some brothers gave me stares I said that ain’t fair we two humans beings here. And I ain’t confused, I know my history’s clear, the sunshine’s beaming on both kinds of hair. Wisdom speaking loud, some folks don’t want to hear.There’s nothing new under the sun, many things that was had to succumb to the rhythm of the drum cuz we’re children of the son. And only he’s seen what has been seen since the beginning of day one. And the truth is this story is more of a lesson. I’m actually married to a sister that’s a black one. But under the sun what ever color your attracting, just remember loves and action word and character is more so what we should prefer.
I’m loving the sunshine, can’t help the way I feel, in the sunshine

I stand for children innocence in they eyes playing under blue skies trying out fake cries to see dey mamma sympathize wanting dey new toys thinking it a bring em joy thinking mom and dad are wack but later on they realize
Children playing in the dirt getting wet in the rain, falling till they learn that part of life is pain crawling till they learn that walking is another thing and running can come only when walking is no type of strain
I stand for beauty earth sky woman man or other worldly things like birth strife and death again and things that we cant touch like love faith and sacrifice things that we like much like good food and moon light cloud formations clear blue skies four season leaves and the colors that stop by great songs great art great books and stories unrecognized underdogs that later gain glory
The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am
The things that I stand for tell who I am
The things that I stand for tell who I am
I stand for truth political or spiritual and I know the truth can hurt but I’d rather hear it though whether truth about the past present future or all I know the man who hates truth is the man who will fall, I know that every single issue boils down to sin and the only way to kill sin is from within and the man who points his finger at everyone else has got 4 other finger pointed back to himself and that people don’t change cuz of words alone yet a nation can moved by one person whose strong and truth can be buried for moments of time but like the last day buried things are bound to rise…
The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am
The things that I stand for tell who I am
The things that I stand for tell who I am
As I stand, so I rise
Lift my tears up to the sky
I stand for something or everything I fall for even when I’m wrong yo you know my views we choose most of our paths and that’s just the truth even if most of our ways lead to further blues and sometimes I stand for nothing I just sit and listen cuz no matter how much I got there’s things I’m missing so when its all done and said I stand for this, when its all done and said I stand for this, when its all done and said I stand for this
Children beauty truth and something that stirs my insides inspires my very life cuz bottom line for everyone is you stand or sit, you stand or sit, you stand or sit, you stand or sit
As I stand, so I rise
Lift my tears up to the sky
The things that I stand for tell who I am
The things that I stand for tell who I am
The things that I stand for tell who I am
The things that I stand for tell who I am

Arrested Development coming
Alright
Pulling might from the inner cities
Always gritty
The people requesting us
We had enough of resting up
The best amongst us is refreshing us
Stand up my inner cities
Down trodden, brethren, we kin, we lend our love to ya
Mathematics, musical path, a musical wrath
19-member staff family
Ramming the inner city down the throats of the bourgeoisie
Did anyone tell you whose I be?
I be the cat that way back in 92
Reminded you that there’s more to do in the inner cities!
A.D. in this thang, man we go against the grain
It's a shame how the lame, done infiltrated the game
I'm for real, we got our own slang in the field
To identify the Jake from the fake and the real
For ever I love Atlanta, it's hotter than country grammar
Got old folks wearing white T's and bandannas
So if our style jumps off the track
Pick it up, Pick it up, Pick it up
Back on the scene, the projects apartment 74
First door on the left, man second floor
See, I never had a crib just a dresser drawer
Never stressing Big O she let her little professor grow
Hear the sounds from the corner like a serenade
Where the girls ball hogging like Dewayne Wade
So I moved to Westwood, man the best hood
Learned the game how not to be lame and how to dress good
You can find nines, dimes and stallions
Club full of freaks in Jesus piece medallions
I got the key to the city like I'm P. Diddy
Inner City, my city we keep it real gritty
Like throw backs, fitted hats, gold chain, gold teeth
Drug dealers and killers, they all about the rap beef
No curfew, these young boys will hurt you
It's very obvious that there's more to do in the Inner City

Da da da da
Yo my pride is heavy as two tons of scrap metal
inside of a black kettle hanging on the back of a bike while a cat pedals.
I mean I would normally never say
that today I’m in a bad mood got eyes black like a raccoon.
But that’s not the man you looking for I know it you need a black man with the confidence of a poet and today I’m a blow it
Cuz truth is I’m not there in fact I’m sorta scared of the direction my life is going
hey it was good knowing you but…
Chorus
Baby ? you caught me at a bad time
In my life ? my head is off the hook like a busy line
Would it be alright ? if I decline your flirts
You should refine your search
I can tell you, you deserve better than this but…
The truth is you sorta the most beautiful-ist girl I’ve seen in a while
Your pearly white teeth spread like an eagle
You’re so regal when you smile
I see you on the beach with a long sarong with a wild print like
Uh huh but uh uh
Cuz still I’m just a nappy headed artist and you’ll regret it the hardest once you see my moods and attitudes
Move as far as you can from this man I’m warning you flesh is weak don’t let me put no thorn in you
At another time and date it a be great to just hook up
I’ll be filled with sooka sooka sookie sookie now
My mojo would over flow a good looker now
Show yo friends the type a fish that you hooking’ now
But as of now I’m just a fat cow and I’m feelin low
Weak and uneventful stomach like a pillow
Not hard like a brillo pad I’m feeling bad and it’s sad
If only you would have come at a different time I wish you had but…
Baby ? you caught me at a bad time
In my life ? my head is off the hook like a busy line
Would it be alright ? if I decline your flirts
You should refine your search
I can tell you, you deserve better than this but…
(Female)
I'm feelin you, I want you, I know you want me too.
I'll just give you time to unwind, relax your mind.
I'm here, don't fear, I want to be near
It’s so amazing that you’re still given me play even after everything that I say what are you?
Some type of cultural daffodil the princess of some distant land where your face is on they dollar bill
And like you coming to America to hook up with the real thang I guess I’m Eddie Murphy on Boomerang
Feeling like I lost my groove but that’s alright with you you picking me up licking my cut fitting’ my rut you hitting’ me up
Baby ? you caught me at a bad time
In my life ? my head is off the hook like a busy line
Would it be alright ? if I decline your flirts
You should refine your search
I can tell you, you deserve better than this but…
You giving me love
Wow
You making me feel better

(I wouldn’t trade what I get from my kids, the feeling of security that they get from me. Knowing that my life is making a difference in their life, knowing that they need me, I wouldn’t trade that for nothing)
Living Life-Life is love
(Nobody believes me anyway)
Love of woman or man
The love of taking a stand of trust.
You bust your butt on single scenes for what?
If not to find love.
You know it’s love or lack of love that causes gangs or causes thugs.
Mothers & sons, fathers and daughters all are in need of someone. And at the time that we don’t find it, we design a plan…we search the land for woman or man to give what we need in order to live!
We get hurt and break our spirits & our hearts.
We start to fear it… we get further and further growing harder and harder… some even say why bother!
Living Life-Life is love
(Nobody believes me anyway)
Every single person ought to have a daughter or a son
Someone to love above themselves to help you grasp the depths of love
It’s radical! It’s tragic though how people underestimate the greatness and relentless, miraculous stakes of love.
I’m serious we see terrorist hardened to the core willing to kill mame or hurt just so they can be heard!
They’ll kill women or children, we’re quick to say that they’re villains but every bodies got feelings, the things that they’ve been just dealing with!
Living Life-Life is love
(Nobody believes me anyway)
The heart of a man is complex, who can understand it
Next, we taking love for granted, never the way the Father planned it
A seed was planted in the children, love your daddies and you mothers Brothers love your sisters, all of my sisters love your brothers
Because we are getting older, we got the weight of the world on our shoulders
But hold your head up soldier, although I know your heart is growing colder
Similar to polar, love your family tipsy or sober
Magnolia resist the coke, and I'm not referring to cola
Because we fall in and out of love, shout love, doubt love
Husband or wife and now your whole life is about love
Too much or not enough love leads to rough love
Tough love, some overstand but handcuff love
A different race, dogs on the chase like who's next love
A different game, no one's ashamed of same sex love
Those loving respect, ought to try to respect love
It's One Love, I'm living to protect love But....
(Nobody believes me anyway)
