Brandy - Drum Life

A new song from Brandy! Her latest album, Human, is set to be in stores December 9! Pick up your copy. Listen to this upbeat track produced by Timbaland.

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
It was your eyes that gave you up through that stupid disguise;
You tryin' to hide behind that drink and you almost slipped by.
I see you there -- sophisticated, ignoring the beat;
Mouth might be closed, but listen baby, your heart, it is screaming.

Chorus 1:
You're one of us: one of those beautiful fools. (you are)
You're one of us: you were born in a song, so you should live in it.

Chorus 2:
Live in a drum (woah);
You'll never be in it alone.
If you lived in a drum (woah),
Right now you'd already be home.
Live on, live on --
The drum life never get's old!
Live on,live on --
The drum life keeps going on!

Verse 2:
It was a lie when thay told you you were stuck here forever,
There all alone -- the music's begging to bring us together.
You've been away and now you won't dance;
It's the only way back to your homeland.

Repeat Chorus 1 & 2

Bridge:
I live my life on the inside of a drum; I love it (love it, love it, love it).
Beautiful music; when we play don't you wannna touch it? (touch it, touch it)
And each time I live it inside of a drum it's nothing (nothing, nothing, nothing).
Let's live our lives on the inside of a drum and -- it (-- it, -- it, -- it).

Repeat Chorus 1 & 2; fade out

I totally agree with you! She needs to be trying to get on the dance charts because that's what people want to hear, and I love her doin it. These unreleased tracks are FIRE! WOW

[iAmNorM4L]

Gotta disagree. Brandy is a Pop artist with soulful chops. R&B doesn't allow her to reveal her full potential at all.

Where can you get this song?? I don't see it on her HUMAN albumn... :(

[MoniMeka]

@MrEfInK LOL so you like the first 15 secs, then when Brandy starts to sing you don't like it? LMAOOOOOOO a mess. wow!

[Mahaachickaslash]

Brandy is just amazing :))

[TheJazzydrummer]

Being a drummer, the son of a legendary drummer and a guy that has seriously admired Brandy for many years, I love the concept and lyrics of this song. It doesn't really sound like a Timbaland production to me though. Well maybe it does but I would certainly do it better! Tell Brandy (or her people) to get in contact with me! I'll be at the Grammy awards (2011) next week!
