《Behind the Musik》歌词

[00:00:10] June sixth1975

[00:00:12] In Miami Florida was the place I first arrived

[00:00:15] My parents smiled as I opened my blues eyes

[00:00:17] Cuz they was newly married and I was their first child

[00:00:20] My pop was from Jersey my mom was from Miami

[00:00:23] They met in the bed stuy Brooklyn NYC

[00:00:25] At Art College and yes they was hippies

[00:00:28] So I guess that makes me child of the sixties

[00:00:31] But anyways we didn’t stay we moved to plant city

[00:00:33] Then to Lakeland then to Miami then to Ybor city

[00:00:36] Living in the hood where things are never ever pretty

[00:00:38] The only white kid smack dab in the inner city

[00:00:41] My playground is a parking lot plus a back ally

[00:00:43] At times I would wake up in the dark with no electricity

[00:00:45] On top of that we were struggling cause we got no money

[00:00:48] And going through this inside it’s killing me

[00:00:52] On and on on and on

[00:00:57] You love goes on

[00:00:59] On and on on and on

[00:01:12] I was about six when all this was goin on

[00:01:15] Things began to change everything I knew was up and gone

[00:01:18] They separated on the weekends I would see my mom

[00:01:19] Still living with my pops in my hood but not for too long

[00:01:21] When I was nine they divorced and I was moving on

[00:01:24] To the suburbs with my mom cause courts said it was wrong

[00:01:26] For me to be living in the hood with my dad so I’m up and gone

[00:01:29] Mom remarried and had a baby we living in my grandmas home

[00:01:32] We living in a neighborhood that’s middle class

[00:01:36] But I felt poor because of some things I didn't have

[00:01:38] Time passed we moved out but still thing aint right

[00:01:41] I'm slipping fast at home all I do is fight and yell

[00:01:43] My grades start to crash plus I ran away from home twice

[00:01:46] And almost got shot by the cops one single night

[00:01:48] I started high school and party all the time

[00:01:51] But little did I know what was gonna happen to my life

[00:01:54] On and on on and on

[00:01:58] You love goes on

[00:02:01] On and on on and on

[00:02:15] At fifteen had a talk with my cousin got me thinking

[00:02:17] Was there more to life than girls partying and drinking

[00:02:19] I picked up his bible and started reading revelations

[00:02:22] For some reason I was crying when I reach the ending

[00:02:25] Now God was working on me and this was the beginning

[00:02:27] The first time in a long while that I started praying

[00:02:30] I had to move again and again and say goodbye to everyone

[00:02:31] My dad and my friends was once again all up and gone

[00:02:34] Brand new school by myself sitting all alone

[00:02:37] Feeling like a fool every single day I'm coming home

[00:02:40] But I would listen every night in my bedroom to Gospel radio preach about Christ and just then soon

[00:02:45] I gave my life to him everything became new

[00:02:47] I was born again I've never been the same dude

[00:02:50] Ya took my sin and my guilt and let them blame you

[00:02:52] And on and on though the years you always came through

[00:02:56] On and on on and on

[00:03:00] Your love goes on

[00:03:03] On and on on and on

[00:03:16] It was November and the year was 1995

[00:03:18] I still remember the very first date with my wife

[00:03:21] And I was on my own doing shows part time

[00:03:24] Twenty years old just trying to make something of my life

[00:03:26] I moved away home when I was only eighteen

[00:03:28] Broke as a joke making music trying to chase a dream

[00:03:31] And everybody seems to think I'm crazy except for me

[00:03:33] But God was there every time to supply my needs

[00:03:36] I went on staff at a church in the inner city

[00:03:39] Writing rhymes in my spare time for my CD

[00:03:41] I mailed my demo to a label named Gotee

[00:03:44] And out of nowhere Todd Collins up and called me

[00:03:46] He said he heard my junk and plus he wanted to sign me

[00:03:49] My heart jumped and plus I want to cry and scream

[00:03:52] But all I did was hung up the phone quietly and thinked God how he always provided for me

[00:03:57] On and on on and on

[00:04:01] Your Love goes on

[00:04:05] On and on on and on
