Soul high
Soul high..
I was on a cloud so high
you could not get me down
Thought I was listening to my heart
but I was playing with my mind
playing with my mind..
Soul high..
There was no place I could go
‘cause I was nowhere to be found
I guess it’s hard to see when you’re blind to the signs
blind to the signs..
Soul high..
If you look / you won’t find
what you feel / you can’t hide
don’t hide
don’t stay inside, let it fly, thru space and time
let it fly, let it fly
don’t be shy
let it fly
Soul high..
I’m chilling on the avenue, kickin’ old skool rhymes
Tryin’ to act real cool.. just another fool .. but that’s cool..
Soul high.. x2
So high
When we gettin down and it’s all good x8
Soul High x4
72.. Lazy Rebel..The vibe is everything
C’est en étant prudent qu’on se fait le plus de mal..*

Fool is blind
Fool is blind, he does not see
Foolish times, for you and me
Who is high, can we be free
Take your time, to be with me
Tryin’ times, we get by
Tellin’ lies, I don’t know why
Showing signs, that no one sees
Live your life, awake in sleep
What I want.. is what I need
Fool is blind.. he can not see
Don’t be blind.. just be with me
Free your mind.. and you will see
Fool is blind, he does not see
Foolish times, for you and me
Walk the line, somehow I feel
Angel eyes, can set me free
Please be nice, and let me be
Don’t think twice, unlock the key
Some believe, while others bleed
But we all need, the energy

Looking for the answers, you ask the wrong questions
It’s just another beat man, it’s just another session
Live your life and learn your lessons
Don’t count on your friends.. but do count your blessings
Ask your homegirl who she likes best then
Now is not the time for you to start stressin’
The host with the most, from coast to coast
I like a slice of salmon on some buttered toast
I also like chicken, especially when it’s roast
I ain’t no joke and that’s just how it goes
With a hole in your soul and a heart so cold
If you can’t cope, you need to go for broke
Everybody knows, where the wind blows
Some like medallions, others like gold
I just like to flow and let my mind grow..
Zoom zoom zoom it’s the boom box blasta
Come on get down, and do what ya hasta
Straight from the old skool, Soul 72
I do what I love and I love what I do
Rappin’ for kicks, fresh for ’96
A cool motherfucker with the most past lovers
I keep it undercover, Peace to all the suckers
Emcees think they nice but they melt like ice
You wanna step up, you better think twice
I don’t fuck ho’s, I don’t like techno
And damn I get a headache from that cold electro
But I don’t really care, if this makes you mad
See there’s two types of music man.. good or bad
While you’re feelin’ sad, I’m chillin’ in my pad..
She said “I really like you, but you could be my father..”
You are what you think so you think what you ought to
I drink a sip of wine, I drink a sip of water
I drink the elixer when I’m banging your daughter..
Zoom zoom zoom it’s the boom box blasta
Come on get down, and do what ya hasta

Melody for you

This melody
This melody’s for you
You got my nature rising
This melody’s for you
I think that I’m capsizing
Oh-oh
I’m ready
Oh-oh
Are you ready..
I can’t play / by the rules
Now that would be too easyyyyy
I can’t be / your broken hearted fool
Oh baby won’t you please me
Is this love / or just desire?
Can you take me / a little higher
If I open up my heart
Will you take me for a liar
Oh-oh
I’m ready
Oh-oh
Are you ready..
This melody’s for you
You got my nature rising
This melody’s for you
I think that I’m capsizing
Some people say I’m restless
Cos I’m always on the guess-list
It’s like a game of chess this
Dude you tryin’ to mess with
See I’m kinda fresh miss
If you’re scared, just take the exit
If you’re cool, then we can test this
Well I hope you get the message..
This Melody’s for you
I’m ready
This melody’s for you
You got my nature rising
This melody’s for you
I think that I’m capsizing
I’m ready for you
Are you ready for me

Lonely gigolo

Lost and lonely gigolo
I’m a lost and lonely gigolo
The look of love controls my soul
I take a broken heart with me
Wherever I go..
I’m a bad boy with good intentions
My heart and soul are my only possessions
If the sun shines on my love
I won’t sing songs of sorrow
When I ride the waves of lust
I don’t think about tomorrow
I ride around town, fooling around ..
Smoking and drinking, running after women
I have a reputation, every night a new sensation..
But when I’m all alone I feel so lonely
It’s like there’s no one here who really knows me ..
Living in the city.. Living in the city..
I’m a lost and lonely gigolo
The look of love controls my soul
I take a broken heart with me
Wherever I go..
In this dirty city I have to find
A nice little lover with a flirty mind
To make me forget for just one night
That true love’s just a dollar sign
When I look into those eyes
I can’t help commit the crime
Eventhough I know it’s all a lie
It’s a small price to pay for a good time..
But at home when I’m alone
I mumble into microphones
It’s like no one really knows
So I crumble into pieces
My perfect mind, a broken home
I’m just a gigolo like Jezus
I’m a lost and lonely gigolo
The look of love controls my soul
I take a broken heart with me
Wherever I go..

See no evil
Do you feel confused…
Used and abused
Smoking and drinking…
Paranoid thinking
Mistakes are made, promises broken
Young girls cry .. and nobody’s joking
All I can say is..
Get yourself together
Don’t talk, communicate
Set it straight, before it’s too late
I’m gettin so tired…
I’m gettin so tired of the rims on ya tires
You grind for the papes, I mime for the shine
You sniffin’ a line, I’m checking my mind
You act like a gangster but homeboy ya lying
You gotta new release, but nobody’s buying
Gimme that mic, you should stop trying
You fake it, to make it
I break it, and take it
To another level, the Lazy Rebel
Cool like the devil
Duh duh-duh-duh, holla atcha boy?
Now why
would I do that love -huh?
Don’t talk, communicate
Set it straight, before it’s too late

Keep on living
72 :
Talking and sleeping and walking and creeping
on the side of your unmade bed
Thinking and drinking and smoking and coping
with all the things you never said
Spinning and turning and grinning and burning
the soul out of your red eyes
Waiting and debating, growling and howling
for real love to come on time
Playing and biting and saying and writing
all that you can't say
Coming and going and boozing and losing
the games that you won’t play
Giving and taking and living and breaking
cold hearts with long goodbyes
Buying and selling and lying and yelling
“You know how it feels inside?”
Keep on living
Keep on giving
Keep on loving someone else’s wife
Keep on trying
Keep on lying
Don’t let ‘em tell you how to live your life
ROXY RAP :
Vouloir, voir, pouvoir, devoir
Dans ma tete, un beau fou : toi
…
You gotta
Keep on keeping on
Faut continuer, c’est la vie

Good things

Good things
Good things
Come to those who wait
But don’t hesitate
Put ya faith to the plate
Good things, come to those who wait
Be free create, set the record straight
Imitate innovate, great
So now I’m baking credentials for others to mention
Rhyme till I get no more pension
Chasing steel cunts in the mansion
Freaky dekes like my tensils
My pen so swift I’m a pencil
Get a grip or get a utensil
Inbetween your ass cracking up like I’m Denzel
Go girls, time to roll girls
Seven to the soul to the hocus pocus
this ain’t no karokus
if you digs then you’s a soaker
stay away from ho’s playing games like poker
wanna puff get with the smokers
wanna bluff get with the brokers
balance bass and treble keep the tone loc’er
clear eyesight keep my mind free it’s time to focus.. time to focus
Good things
Come to those who wait
But don’t hesitate
Put ya faith to the plate
Mo’fuckers talkin’ shit behind my back
Turn around to see, and they just wack
Money Hungry Bitches ‘bout to get smacked
Straight faced fools fast food fat
carry no weight respect the skillz they lack
Wanna sniff some ye-yo, smoke some crack ?
Ayow keep on keepin on
I gotta do it from the night time to the breakadawn
Watch me get into it as I break it down
Gotta be the best cos I see no one else around
Who Kicks it like me - Rips it like me
Rhymes so fresh and sings so funky like me
It’s not hard to see :
Peter keep the meter in the red
take it easy please the ladies in the bed
old grooves I’m trying to get away from
after the rain I’m steppin’ out to see the sun come
put all my weight into making these new grooves work
is it my faith to live and learn not to be a cool jerk
so now I’m skippin’, skippin’ - keep tight rippin’
seven to the one now isn’t that fittin’
move on up, loving and living
this music baby, I gotta keep on giving

World on fire
Hey oh.. hey oh.. hey oh..
It’s my world..
A lover not a liar, looking for the fire
Looking for a heartbeat, looking for desire
I wanna feel inspired, to write ‘till I retire
Looking for the Sun to lift my spirits higher
I used to be like you man, I used to be a buyer
Living the big life, sniffin the white lies
Too many clouds, I can’t see the sky
The world’s gone insane and I wanna get away
Cars roll by, pollution to my eyes..
The Jungle book of Life, chapter Seven and still writing
Soft-spoken rhymes for damn hard times
Right down the line, it’s time to shine for ma Life
You’re the Shine in my life, you’re the sweetest that I
Could have ever dreamed of..
I’m looking for a heart desire
I’m looking at the world on fire
Too lazy to work now where’s your future
Easy, leisurely doing what suits you..
Take another puff, now that’s the solution
Believe in your dreams like Martin Luther
Talkin’ about a revolution stuck behind computers
Winner takes it all, and the loser takes the fall
You can spend a lifetime, living a lie
Don’t sell your soul what your heart won’t buy
If you’re scared of doing wrong, you’ll never get it right
Living colors FRESH but your mind is black and white
There’s many many ways, and there’s many different shades
Keep playing those games to get into the game
How low can you go without selling ya soul?
I stay calm and composed as I dose my prose..
A lover not a liar, looking for the fire
Looking for a heartbeat, looking for desire..
I’m looking for a heart desire
I’m looking at the world on fire
I’m gettin so tired of the rims on ya tires
You grind for the papes, I mime for the shine
You sniffin’ a line, I’m checking my mind
You act like a gangster but homeboy ya lying
You gotta new release, but nobody’s buying
Gimme that mic, you should stop trying
You fake it, to make it - I break it, and take it
To another level, the Lazy Rebel
Cool like the devil, duh duh-duh-duh
Stay calm and composed as I dose my prose
High, low.. the soul just grows
Anyway the wind blows, we shine like gold..
Don’t you ever wanna shine, you’re good loving is divine
Don’t you ever wanna shine.. on me
