…you the truth
I gotta know where I stand
So before I go through with this
It's time that you knew
That boy between me and you…
…I stand
So before I go through with this
It's time that you knew
That boy between me and you
I gotta know where I stand
Feeling…
…is new
I'm liking all that you do
But to tell you the truth
I gotta know where I stand
So before I go through with this
It's time that you…

…you the truth
I gotta know where I stand
So before I go through with this
It's time that you knew
That boy between me and you…
…I stand
So before I go through with this
It's time that you knew
That boy between me and you
I gotta know where I stand
Feeling…
…is new
I'm liking all that you do
But to tell you the truth
I gotta know where I stand
So before I go through with this
It's time that you…

…hold you like a rose
Tell me where i'd have to stand
To hold your gaze for awhile
..and could i ever hold your hand?
...if i saw…
…no sense in spending time alone
It's more "I Love You" than "I Crave You"
Just tell me when you're coming home
Tell me where i'd have to stand…
…no sense in spending time alone
It's more "I Love You" than "I Crave You"
Just tell me when you're coming home
Tell me where i'd have to stand…

A ride-or-die down like six thirty
A straight-up chick like twelve o'clock
"I don't know where he at", that's what she tell the cops
Take a stand…
…all
Cause that's what seen in movies
Come to find out it's not like that at all
You see real life's much different
[Pre-Chorus]
I…
…let me go, I hope
Tell me that now it's not the end
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
I used to believe love conquers all
Cause that's what I felt…

…the mountains peel back the sky
Stomp gravity into the floor
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Time…
…and mountains drift
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Time and distance are out of place here
Step…
…engine, another engine
We never wrote the reasons that I need explained
Some things are givens, and others get away
This time its…

…it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo, imagine if your life was like a hurricane, a hurricane
Forever, imagine your locked down…
Could ya'll stand the weather?
You built for that weather?
Yo, know what'm saying?
Know what'm saying?
[Verse 3: Mos Def]
Yes, I…
…forever
Could y'all stand the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo, imagine if your life…

Hello my friend, are you visible today?
You know I never knew that it could be so strange...strange
Hello, I'm sorry, I lost…
…the government? (Hi...hi, hi, hi)
GET UP LYRICS
Sleep delays my life (get up, get up)
Where does time go? (get up, get up, get up)
I don't…
…am the world leader pretend
This is my life
And this is my time
I have been given the freedom
To do as I see fit
It's high time I've razed the walls
That…

Could you tell me where you run to
(When it's rent time and I done spent mine ba-by)
When it ain't nowhere…
…to turn to
(When it's rent time and I done spent mine ba-by)
Could you tell me where you run to
(When the LAPD see you ridin' dirty dirty dirty…
…real
I put that on yo nine millimetre steel
All judges, that's strictly real
Could you tell where you run to
(When you duckin…

Forever, imagine your locked down forever
Could y'all stand the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you…

Could y'all stand the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo…

I am time
I know no prejudice, I bare no sentiments
For wealth or settlement, I move forward [who you…

Forever, imagine your locked down forever

You tell me that you know the pain
Yo, imagine…

Forever and ever yo, locked down forever

You built for that weather?
Yo, know what'm saying?

[Common]
You gotta fight for what you…
…imagine your locked down forever
Could y'all stand the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo…

…it, Get over it
It's like going to confession every time I hear you speak
You're makin' the most of your losin' streak
Some call it sick, but I…
…do I get out of here
Where do I fit in?
Though the world is torn and shaken
Even if your heart is breakin'
It's waiting for you…
…or a place to hide
Down in the crowded bars,
out for a good time,
Can't wait to tell you all,
what it's like up…

Could y'all stand the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo, imagine if your life…
…was like a hurricane, a hurricane
Forever, imagine your locked down forever
Could ya'll stand the weather?
You built for that weather?
Yo…
…the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo, imagine if your life…

Could y'all stand the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo, imagine if your life…
…was like a hurricane, a hurricane
Forever, imagine your locked down forever
Could ya'll stand the weather?
You built for that weather?
Yo…
…the weather?
Could you hold it together?
You tell me that you know the pain
Yo, imagine if your life…

…through the yearbook then I find that empty space
There's a name without a picture, but I can't forget his face
Tell me where did…
…myself from thinking about you
It's because I love you, and I know that it's true, whoooa
I'll call it desperation, can't you see…
…It's not just me, you feel it too
'Cause you know I belong with you
Look at where we're going
Tell me what can I say
We're tracing…
