Shadows On The Sun lyrics translation: BROTHER ALI Shadows On The Sun song texte and letras BROTHER ALI Shadows On The Sun tab, paroles and testo BROTHER ALI Shadows On The Sun Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
Yea, well I guess its no where different from anywhere else in the world man
I look out my window I see the whole thing
One side of the street, is Willows funeral home
and the other side the library
Try very hard to picture this shit
Walks is where I live at
Where parents are embarrassed to tell ya where they raised their kids at
You need some half and half of a 8 ball, you can get that
Fuck with little Rodney, you get all of your ribs cracked
In a location where slang (crack rock)
is not seen as a fucking recreation but a vocation
And the fellas and the smokers are both pasty
Get one eye on Minneapolis PT, they both racing
3 for 50, that`s the supply and demand
And the twin cities, American heartland
And they`ve been busy, mastermind, tearing apart plans
And hoop dream is ballin with blisters on their hands
With chains danginling from the rims
Pain strangles them from within
Till a belt around the arm, makes the vein stand at ATTENTION!!
I try to block it out with a bed sheet, the moon lights is the curtin
Cause I`m not comforted by red and blue lights when I`m hurtin
Mommy loves you, yea I knew, but I wasn`t certain
Cause Aneice is through, but she views life wasn`t working
As a boy she told me `wait for your father to come home`
I`m 24, still waitin for my father to come home
And some parents only touch their children when the whips brought
That`s why bad kids to bad shit, just so they can get caught, and get touched
This growing ups shit rough
That`s a big part of why we`re so mixed up
Shit we don`t have Bar Mitzvah`s, we become men the first time our father
hits us, and we don`t open gifts up
Sister Angena, from across the street is beautiful
But for 50 bucks, there nothin she wouldn`t do to you
Used to be premium pussy, but now she`s used up
For that same 50 bucks, she`s gotta do some new stuff
Whatever it takes to make you pull the dollars out
If you don`t intervene, then there`s a day she`ll turn her daughter out
Speaking of kids, I`m fixing lunch for my first born
I had the windows wide open cause the weathers warm
That`s when the greatest hits of Donny Hathaway
got interrupted by a driveby shooting half a block away
Faheim was in the window, he didn`t get hit though
All praise to Allah
I see all this from the desk that I write my rhymes from
Pen starts to scribble on its own, my minds numb
But, you can call me modern urban Normal Rockwell (3x)
I paint a picture of the spot well
