never say you aint gave it all if you aint gave it all just fade it in the hazy purple twilight no more time i tried to warn you all its now approaching midnight!
So don't pretend you gave it all if you ain't gave it all just fade it in the hazy purple twilight no more time I tried to warn you all it's now approaching midnight!
Ah thanks, its also indeed on the Endtroducing deluxe cd2, but also on the In Fluxuations album, wich also rules! This one isn't as good as the original one but the lyrics used in this song are still inspirational
i realized that part of the tune sampled on the piano is straight from Isley Brothers - summer breeze. It is used so well out of context here. Totally different mood.
This is extremely good - Well done - 10 over 10 from me

Gift of Gab drops some real knowledge on this one. If only every single ear could hear this, it might just change the world.

some JUMPING OUT OF BUILDINGS others on their knees in prayer
some cry out to the sky and yell they aren't quite prepared
you looked god in the face and said forgive me all he did was stare.
now you can run,
but where you gonna hide from all the POWER OF THE SUN?
NOW brace yourself for !!!! IMPACT !!!!! it's a half hour to twelve.
now it's over and you're """""DROWNDING""""" deep inside your sorrow
join the dots...?
