Grieve Stricken Heart
[Lawrence Krisna Parker]
One two
Rap music, what does it mean
What is everybody in this industry for
What is everybody, buying rap for
Why do people get involved, in rap music
Rap music number one, is the voice of black people, number one
Number two, it's the LAST voice, of black people
Black people have created every music you hear out here in the streets today
Every single music, rock and roll down
Therefore; in a situation that has, all African music in it
All African music, uhh, exploi
Boys In The Band
(Brown)
With Mr Soul or King Creole
You gotta go with the man in the band
He'll be your guide
Singing la la la la
But what makes Mr Politic
A lot of words another trick
Turn peace into war
Singing ha ha ha ha
Ooh it's not the way we want it
Not the way at all
Not the way to change our minds
Our backs up against the wall
The boys in the band all live in harmony
For life's a poem
And we can make it rhyme
The boys in the band all live in harmony
Let's get it together before we
Go down, down, down
I don't want to theorise it
Just hope people realise
The simple melody can free your soul
And let you be man what you are
And fly la la la
But every back street slum where
Pushers push and hookers hook
Just won't set you free with ha ha ha ha
Oooh it's not the way we want it
Not the way at all
Not the way to change our minds
Our backs up against the wall
The boys in the band all live in harmony
For life's a poem
And we can make it rhyme
The boys in the band all live in harmony
Let's get it together before we
Go down, down, down
Break
The boys in the band all live in harmony
The boys in the band all live in harmony
Oooh it's not the way we want it
Not the way at all
Not the way to change our minds
Our backs up against the wall
The boys in the band all live in harmony
The boys in the band all live in harmony
The boys in the band all live in harmony
The boys in the band all live in harmony
The boys in the band all live in harmony
The boys in the band all live in harmony
