| SHING02: Luv(sic) pt.3It's funny how the music put times in perspective
Add a soundtrack to your life and perfect it
Whenever you are feeling blue keep walking and we can get far
Wherever you are
Like a movie that you can't predict
Like a book that you can't resist
I sing along a song that's oh so sensual
bring along a sip to make it all so sexual
verbally that is, making love to the music means vibing to the beat at night
with the whole city fast asleep, out cold
true words seem to rise to the lips, take hold
of a poet in me, most powerfully
I feel free when the world doesn't owe it to me
It's so hard to find a gig that lives up to the billing,
trying to find a reason to work, god willing
I admit, my thinking is wishful
like a star upon a child gazing up to the ceiling
how far do we have to stretch the truth
to fit the lifestyles borrowed and overdue
we can take it all back to the register
and start all over from the canister
let's break it all down into pieces of bright
moments that pass by like a meteorite
throw on your favorite reel that's good to go
on the analog player watch the people glow
sit back to the breeze let the memories flow
comedy tragedy all the highs and lows
(chorus)
Like your moves that I can't predict
Like your look that I can't resist
The ting-a-ling feeling was oh so mutual
the lingering appeal was so unusual
herbally what is, medicine to a lone soul can become poison to some
with the whole body fast asleep, out cold
true vision seem to come to the eye, take hold
of a prophet in me most visibly
I see clear when the world doesn't show it to me
It's so hard to make sense in a cycle of billing,
trying to find a reason to quit and make a killing
I admit, our dealing is painful
like a star upon a child staring down from the ceiling
how far do we have to stretch the picture
before pixelating the human texture
we can take it all back to the register
and start all over from the canister
let's save it all up for an ultimate prize
homecoming gathering with a big surprise
throw on your favorite record that's good to go
on the analog table and it's hooked to blow
sit back with ease and hear the emcee flow
hi hat kick drum all the highs and lows
(chorus)
Um, third time's the charm, hopefully
when I chime on your door you'd still let me in
after all these years
the room that you caved in my heart is exactly the same as you left it
I realize that you have moved on
new styles and cliques like them silent flicks
I'm speechless in this golden occasion
the beautiful expression on the silver creation
this time I'd like to keep in touch
I'm a likkle bit wiser, a whole lot tougher
if I suffer through another nightmare tonight,
we'll chalk it up as another chapter to write, all right?
or wrong or somewhere down the middle of the road
I wanna see you again in a scene with the backdrop a perfect ten
and the music can take us back to the spot right then
from black and white to a sepia tone
some dreams come with a tint or in monochrome
from black and white to my skin tone
some dreams have a stint on the microphone
(chorus)
okay we can take it all back to the register
and start all over from the canister
let's break it all down into pieces of bright
moments that pass by like a meteorite
throw on your favorite jacket and you're good to roll
on the analog trail and you look the role
just stroll through the trees and let your miseries go
sunshine hurricane all the highs and lows
we can take it all back to the register
and start all over from the canister
let's break it all down into pieces of bright
moments that pass by like a meteorite

| SHING: Luv(sic) pt.2Once again, now where do I start, dear love
Dumb struck with the pure luck to find you here
Every morn' I awake from a cavernous night,
Sometimes still pondering the previous plight,
Seems life done changed long time no speak,
Nowadays I often forget the day of the week
Taking it by stride if you know what I mean,
No harm done, no offense taken by me
So let's rap, we'll catch up to par, what's the haps?
Perhaps we're even closer now after all things considered on this side of the planet,
Couldn't pick a better time even if we planned it!
To come clean and candid if I have to
Oh what I wouldn't trade for your laughter
Sweet and sour spice in my poetry pot melting,
Even better than the real thing!
It's like the God in me saw the Devil in you
I wanted to break myself in the worst way when I met you
Who would have thought, conversate by the river, celebrate birth,
Sit and delivered the lines that would prove to be the seeds of trust
Unsigned, yeah but destined to grow with sunshine
Self-assigned task piled on the desk of good works,
Knowing hardship appreciate the best of both worlds!
C'est la vie, as they say L.O.V.E evidently, see every song has a sequel
Never same, everything but the name, all fresh just like back then, how we do everyday
C'est la vie, as they say L.O.V.E eloquently, see every dream has a part two
Never same, you got to keep it tight, all fresh just like back then, now hear me out…
Once together, now where do we go, dear divine
I pray that you keep watching over us,
From the heavens where light is the nucleus
To this space filled with darkness and negative matter
Anti-gravity pull is what I would rather feel when I leave this shell eventually
Ties to the mother earth ground me mentally,
Real vibes will keep me alive spiritually
Imagination brings bliss at no cost, when I blink blink I receive at no loss
Victory comes in small packages like a leaf of an olive tree brought back by a dove
From above, then I'm gonna rhyme love,
Well you saw that one coming ever since the beginning of the end
Well anyways, I am not a perfect being, yes I am a man full of sin
It's like the Devil in me saw the God in you,
You epitomize the etymology of enthusiasm!
Look it, up there lies the clouds that form the rain
That came from the ocean that flowed from the river
I'm a believer, firm with the first words, lyrical transceiver of our ancient roots
(Science + Arts) * Faith / # of our Ethnic Race!
Let me mention what I've been thinking
How to save the children, when the ship is sinking
So I'm singing, no lip syncing to slogans,
Political hooligans with tanks, missiles and guns!
Everything is relative when it's all in the family of man,
Understand the time has finally come to realize the great power of 1,
All formulas equalize under the Sun, Amen!
The rhymes will heal 'cause I believe in music,
In times of need I won't be leaving you sick
The beat plus the melody's the recipe,
Your vibe surely brings out the best in me!
The rhymes will heal 'cause I believe in music,
In times of need I won't be leaving you sick
The beat plus the melody's the recipe,
All good souls lost may they rest in peace!
(repeat)
Hiphop worldwide we got to live in peace, like that!

Lovesick like a dog with canine sensitivity
developing this new theory of relativity
connecting our souls resting in captivity,
positive life sacrifice what it is to me
our history, only a quarter of a century
reality, sitting on the shoulders of our chemistry
see ain't no mystery, the colours that we mix will set the mind free,
let the blind see beyond harmony!
breathe life into dead space blow away all clouds of doubt
new territory we determine to be
everything a safe haven is supposed to be
now it might seem distant but the time is near
when our thoughts take off and split the atmosphere
pure sound waves travel semi-infinitely,
plus I'll see you there utmost definitely!
'cause the beat plus the melody makes me speak of l.o.v.e. eloquently, so evidently
'cause the beat plus the melody makes me speak of l.o.v.e. eloquently, so evidently
good gracious, every process has a genesis and ends with a revelation
god bless this opportunity for me to find a voice
for some words that have waited for way too long
low wages, small tips on the avenue
never wasted, all hits for a revenue
haven't you heard the news lately?
seems we've been living for sometimes in a purgatory
but yo, I thought I knew what a love song sound like
but I felt a warmer tune in the sunlight
I could still hear it in the room past midnite,
gotta move, take a solo cruise in the moon light
sometimes I do forget , oh how much we could ease the lives we lead
if we learn to let go, the reins that we hold
return to our souls, and the spirit let flow
so you see, upon everyday faced there's a million shades to express definition of grace
but the method I choose my prerogative,
there's so much love in me I got to give!
(chorus)
oh how I could write a book on how you make me feel,
but how about this song that I wrote for you?
what I feel like... I wanna put my trust in these simple words
for you to feel what I'm saying, what you feel like?
reminisce about the little episodes that we shared together?
remember the time that you told me in the cold night,
to relax when all I knew was to hold tight
remember the time that I spoke to a crowd in a full house and realized that you was my ace?
I was the joker on the stage singing the blues
all eyes on me and had nothing to prove
but yo, I thought I knew what a diamond shine like
but I felt a sharper love in the limelight,
from the queen of hearts watching me quietly in the upper deck balcony
sometimes I do suspect, I'm an actor in a well-scripted live divine comedy
when I look back at that frozen slice of time and try to defrost the senses lost
now enough with the metaphors, the motivation that I wrote this letter for
for you to know that the music help us carry on,
like you say a new day will bring us tomorrow...
'cause your beat plus my melody makes me speak of l.o.v.e. eloquently, so evidently
'cause my beat plus your melody makes me speak of l.o.v.e. eloquently, so evidently | | |
