F - Back Lyrics
please fly, i’ll let you go
please fly, i love you so
to hold you tight, picks apart a rose
please fly, i’ll cry if you don’t.
where you are, dear, i’m still close
so go on, and be the reason why i love you
inside i know
as the tides roll, the winds blow you far from me
as the tides roll, the winds will blow, your love is coming
back to me, back to me.
first time, i saw your eyes, i could see behind them, you could see right through mine
so when you leave to fight your fight you’ve got my heart, my soul, so please fly, fly
cause where you are, dear, i’m still close
so go on, and be the reason why i love you
inside i know
as the tides roll, the winds blow you far from me
as the tides roll, the winds will blow, your love is coming
back to me, back to me.
the shores, the tides, they’re like you and i (you’re coming back to me)
we share a sky, you and i so please fly
as the tides roll, the winds blow you far from me
as the tides roll, the winds will blow, your love is coming
back to me, back to me.
back to me,
you’re coming home.
F - Back Lyrics
Brown skin in the kitchen,
china white Washrag and the dollars,
on the table Keep it quiet, quiet
Chorus
They come and go through the back door
Who's keepin' score Who's keepin' ...
Pension, weren't no mention,
medicaid? Sorry, and the g-men,
got the word in Gettin' wise, Goodnight
Chorus
Pistol blew the whistle On the plan, Mexican
And the river made of dollars Made of sand
Chorus
F - Back Lyrics
Back home
Everybody's searching for somethin'
But all they can find is a whole lot of nothin'
Back home
Ain't nobody hoping and praying
'Cause they feel like nothing can save 'em
And they try to hold out but they can't fight the fact that
Life goes black when those lights go out
But I guess you gotta just watch out for your own
'Cause ain't a damn thing free
Back home
Common:
Back home / they holler "disciple" and "blackstone"
Same block the freebase yo we trapped on
Where our grandmothers marched / The guns clap on
There's liquor stores, beauty supplies, and rap songs
I travel the world just to come back to it
The crib got a lot of soul like black music
I'm attached to it
In many ways this city raised me / and gave me
The drama, honor, and bravery
The streets seem hollow / when I go to Chicago
It's cheap wine and sorrow
Times is hard to swallow
In search of God's tomorrow / I borrow words from the
Bible / and use them for survival / gangs rival
Signs painted on walls like hiero / glyphics
I tell 'em that this is all tribal
Used to do dirt / Shorty's goin' through the same cycle
And trials like Michael / tryin' not to stay idle
Ryu:
Back home it's not Compton but close
The same problems exist and the pain throbbin'
And folks are so common
It don't / really bother us much we just swallow it / uh
Crack the bottle and smoke / hope tomorrow something
Magical happens that'll put me back in the biz
But the chances of it acutally happening's kinda slim
Back home / we get the good life at a glimpse
In the form of a rap star, drug dealers, and pimps
I'm back home
Tak:
Back home / I try my best to keep it together it's cold
Like the Windy City streets of December
I pace back and forth / looking for the courage to shine
But can't lap the source / need something to nourish my mind
I know we all lose quite a bit in life
Only to gain some
Life or the dark winding roads we came from
But I move with the night / so I'm used to the shade
And never lose sight / bringing truth back to the game
Mike:
Back home / We've got a lot of shit on our minds
We're always behind on something cause there's not enough time
And we're non-stop / bottom line / doing what we gotta do
To get some food in the fridge and stay out of the hospital
Back home there's people calling us hopeless
People trying to tell us all we need is some focus
But focus
Focus is overrated
Cause you see every blemish and mistake and can't change it
Back home is Alvarado / K-Town and J-Town
Or Little Tokyo for those that don't know
Where figures shiver / living right in the littler
Where kids write bigger / right inside the LA river
On the concrete / a symbol of our everyday way
Its that color and concentration over heavy and grey
And by the time the ink dries on this page
I'll be half a day away from the place where I stay
F - Back Lyrics
All Great plains of the Earth
Are now lighted by fire
Now gather under wrecked land
From these horsemen in iron
This is the fear
And all you've turned up
Now the atmosphere
Is thicker than blood
From Gehenna to here
A release of sin
It's become our lair
We!
The Nephilim
See the woman thrive
In the blood from Heaven
Burn in banished fire
Like a scene called Hell
See the bloody fire
To you is forsaken
Burn this bloody fire
Burn
Burn Hell
F - Back Lyrics
So the rent increase has got you down, and you can't afford to live in your own home town
Well I bet everybody's feeling the same way
Say you're feeling disconnected from the ground, private properties got you down
Private properties got you shut out of your own world
I was born here and I'm not going anywhere
I was grown here and I'm not going anywhere
This is my town, this is my ground, going to take it all back now
And give it away to everybody
Say your boss man had got you down, say her treats you like some kind of clown
Say he treats you like he owns your soul
Say the tax man has got you down, says he takes your money, leaves you sitting around
Spends your money on bombs to promote peace and democracy
I was born here . . .
This land is their land, this land ain't our land
It's based on greed and god and stealing people's land
It's intimidation conquest and mutilation
This land was stolen from you and me
This land is their land this land ain't our land
It was under the guardianship of the native american
Who knew we belonged to the earth the EARTH DID
NOT BELONG TO THEM
We are merely guardians
The other night dear as I lay sleeping
I dreamt you held me in your arms
But when I broke you were being tortured
With concrete and cars and bombs
F - Back Lyrics
I think about the block keep it close like treasure
Keep it packed away where no one come in to
Got pulled out of the mix like forever and ever
I thought you told me how you felt about it in your letter
But that is all behind me like Georgio Armani
I'm sipping campari feed my dog salami
Never gave nobody up, I did my time I didn't bitch
Since I been back I heard you switched
Chorus:
But I'm back on the block and the air tastes sweeter
Yeah I'm back on the block and I barely believe ya
Yeah I'm back on the block and the air tastes sweeter
Yeah I'm back on the block
I remember the block and how it all began
You was a ramblin' man with a shank in your hand
Now, when they ran up fisty cuts in the plan
One who does it, who you was
So you dropped it on the cousin and you blamed it on me
He said nothing to the man but he said something to me
One to three, but still I gave him the fifth
But since I've been back I heard you switched
And she keeps goin' on and on about it, hmm hmm
And he keeps goin' on and on and on about it
And Drunk Eddie from the store, he keeps goin' on and on about it
He keeps goin' on and on about it.
Chorus (4x)

F - Back Lyrics
From the wasteland
Cold steel under my wasteband
Hazardous times
Enemy lines drawn in the middle the streets
The concrete's stained with blood
I still got to eat
When I hit the street I made the man understand
I fought with flesh and I bled like a man
I rode that edge of darkness my friend
Stood up to the enemy so life could begin
You know you got to
Back the fuck up
Back up off of me
Traces of ignorance
Offense of hatred
The faces change in the same old places
Dark nights and lost souls
Collide to cross those
The line between a death and dream
I never wanted to lead your leash
To pull around your ton of grief
I'll come back with a fist of lead
To educate your mind with a blow to your head
You know you got to
Back the fuck up
Back up off of me
Don't let the time pass waitin' for the answer
You are exposed to all of the danger!
You know you got to
Back the fuck up
Back up off of me
Don't let the time pass waitin' for the answer
F - Back Lyrics
Autonomy is a world of difference
They're creeping round but they know they can't come in
Back from the front with observation it's still there
Across from me an extreme example
Bringing you what they want twenty four hours a day
Whole lot of not but it's convenient pray for fire
They'll tell you anything
It's speculation pure speculation
Bringing you back to base
F - Back Lyrics
Back to life, back to reality

F - Back Lyrics
You remind me of
Of a love I once knew before
I was so open for love
So in love with no experience
But I like this feeling
You're really bringing back the memories
Of someone I once knew
I feel you bring it all back to me
Bring me back to love
Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
It would be so nice if we could run away
Run away
It was hard to see
All the wrong my last love did to me
I was just a fool in love
That's not how it was supposed to be
But I like this feeling
And I don't want you to remind me of
Of someone I once knew
Just keep on bringing me back to love
Bring me back to love
Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
It would be so nice if we could run away
Run away
You make me feel so good
You treat me like I'm special baby
So take me back to love
Cause that is where I wanna be
Back to love
It's so good it's plain to see
The way that you keep loving me
Bringing back the memories
Of a love that used to be
It's so good it's plain to see
The way that you keep loving me
Bringing back the memories
Of a love that used to be
Bring me back to love
Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
It would be so nice if we could run away
Run away
Bring me back to love
Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
It would be so nice if we could run away
Run away
Bring me back to love
Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
It would be so nice if we could run away
Run away
Bring me back to love
Cause real love is what I'm thinking of
It would be so nice if we could run away
Run away

One day it's the morning
Another day it's the afternoon light
On day, baby, without warning
Well, I tend to think we're going back to rome
Back to rome
We had a dream it was behemoth
I'm so sorry that I didn't work out
And I'm sorry about the Visigoths
Well, I think it's time that we go back to Rome
Back to Rome
Don't you wish that we could stay?
We're going back to Rome
Life is so fine
Then it goes wrong
Wrong
You think it's going to miss you but that sun bitch gon' get you
Yeah, it goes wrong
Wrong
Sun bitch gon' get you
I believed in the cupid
I thought I'd kiss you for all my life
I guess I'm just a little stupid
Now I'm going back to Rome
Back to Rome
Now I just can't wait
I'm going back to Rome
Love is so high
Then it goes wrong
Wrong
You think it's going to miss you but that sun bitch gon' get you
Yeah, it goes wrong
Wrong
Sun bitch gon' get you

F - Back Lyrics
Did you stop to think, when we moved by the sea?
When the seasons changed.
(When the seasons changed),
They changed for a reason,
I'm not talking lightly, I don't need to set the scene.
We're living in it.
(We're living in it),
It's in everything we see.
***CHORUS***
I won't go back to the sea,
Whatever's pulling you isn't pulling me,
I won't go back to the sea.
************
Did you really think, that this is what we need?
Well I'm dragging my feet.
(Avoiding sleep),
Trying to make you see,
It's reached the situation where it's the job or me,
It's the job or me.
If you're asking me, then the job is part of me.
***CHORUS***
I won't go back to the sea,
Whatever's pulling you isn't pulling me,
I won't go back to the sea.
************
It's not what you put in,
But what you take away,
The least _______ (ahhhh!)
Now that you're counting down the days,
You've taken opportunities (ahhhh!)
Received nothing in return,
This place that you call paradise (ahhhh!)
Will teach you a lesson you deserve.
***CHORUS***
I won't go back to the sea,
Whatever's pulling you isn't pulling me,
I won't go back to the sea.
I won't go back to the sea,
Whatever's pulling you isn't pulling me,
I won't go back to the sea.

F - Back Lyrics
What's wrong?
What is going on in my head?
I don't know what happened to,
all the confidence I had in people.
I lost all the things I knew.
Make believe that I can trust again.
Pull me up cause I am sinking in.
I know it is wrong and not at all fair,
I am comparing you with her.
I wish I'd trip and fall down on my head
so I can forget the things I fear.
make believe that I can trust again
Pull me up cause I am sinking in.
I'm waiting for you to take me back to the starting line.
I can't wait much longer for me to learn to trust again.
Can't say what is gonna happen to us.
I hope that it will make a turn.
Try to make it work if not then I will,
tell you when the fire starts to burn.
Make believe that I can trust again.
Pull me up cause I am sinking in.
Try to make this work. If not, then I will tell you when to stop.
Try to make this work. If not, then I will tell you to stop.
I'm waiting for you to take me back to the starting line.
I can't wait much longer for me to learn to trust again.
I'm waiting for you to take me back to the starting line.
I can't wait much longer for me to learn to trust again.
F - Back Lyrics
Still crazed, sugar glazed
I refuse to act my age
I can be cool, I can believe
Happy to be here
When can I leave, when can I leave
All that I hope for, all that I need
The back of the closet the air that I breathe
My soul's on cruise control
Happily ever after, nobody knows I'm gone, I'm gone
Back to the sunrise, nothing to lose
Keep me at a distance I can use
Outside our future is yawning
Wide awake, but ready to sleep all day
Ready to be confused, with a distance I can use
Ready to be confused, with a distance I can use
Spit glazed, riding a wave
My body will never behave
Cross eyed, I more than survive
A little bit further from the back of the line
Each time, each time
Back to the sunrise, nothing to lose
Keep me at a distance I can use
Outside out future is yawning
Wide awake, but ready to sleep all day
Ready to be confused, with a distance I can use
Let me be confused, give me distance I can use
F - Back Lyrics
I'm gonna find my way back to you
I lie in bed and watch the shadows dancing across the wall
Nothing to do but think of you and count the tears that fall
Oh, how I wish it was real
I wish I could feel you holding me close
The only thing I know for sure is I should've never let you go
Chorus:
I would walk the world across the sea
Journey beyond the moon
I try anything, go anywhere to find my way back to you
I still don't understand the reason
I think I was just afraid (what can I say)
All I can do is face the truth
And deal with the mess that I made
Now all I want is the chance to take it back and go on like this
Because ever since we said goodbye I've been lost in loneliness
Chorus
Now baby I was wrong
Now that you're gone the only thing left to do
Is spend every day
Stray every way to find my way back to you
I know that I was a fool to push you away
And if you let me back in your life
Baby I swear all my heart and in your arms I will stay
Chorus
Baby, I’m gonna find my way back to you
F - Back Lyrics
I felt so sure of the love that we shared
There was no reason on earth to be scared
Then I heard a rumor, it started to grow
Slowly but surely, the truth began to show
Then I started wonderin', as I picked up the phone
And a man started askin', if you were at home
You treat me like a fool, but you're so wrong
I'm gonna send you back where you belong
I put my trust in you, but I was wrong
I'm gonna send you back where you belong
You treat me like a fool, but you're so wrong
I'm gonna send you back where you belong
I never had any doubt in my mind
Now you have shown me, love can make you blind
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong, back where you belong
Back where you belong...

Breaking all those rules
You made for me
Running through all these mind fields
Set for me
Burning in the fire
You fueled for me
Laughing at all the anger
You've thrown my way
I know what's real
I want to feel
The full effect
These open wounds
Will never heal
There's no respect
The anger will fuel the fire
The flames get higher
Backlash
Breaking all these rules
You made for me
Running through all these mind fields
Set for me
Burning in the fire
You fueled for me
Laughing at all the anger
You've thrown my way
I know what's real
I want to feel
The full effect
These open wounds
Will never heal
There's no respect
The anger will fuel the fire
The anger
The flames get higher
F - Back Lyrics
Get your backpack and passport and you get out of here
We don't wanna see your face no more
You gotta broaden your horizons, expand your wings and soar
Open up your tiny mind and explore
Keep your enemies close cause that is all you will have
You've spent your welcome now it's been revoked
You left in a path of ruin from all the shit you've been doing
Take this chance cause it won't come around again
Get out, get out, get out now
Get your backpack and your passport and your walking shoes
And take a hike somewhere you cannot be found
Where walking on ice and breaking the eggs are the only things that make any sound
When fate smiles for the last time, we've faked smiles for the last time
You get your backpack and you say goodbye
F - Back Lyrics
Well I've never been so lonely and I've never been so blue
I'm leaving in the morning gonna backtrack to you
Your picture's here beside me and never leaves my sight
I'm kissin' like I'm kissin' you oh how I'm missin' you tonight
Well tomorrow night will be a different story well I get to hold you in my arms again
Will you find it in your heart to forget me if you do how little fool I've been
I'm hoping and I'm praying that all my prayers all come true
I'm leaving in the morning gonna backtrack to you
Well tomorrow night...
Gonna backtrack to you gonna backtrack to you gonna backtrack to you
F - Back Lyrics
I keep saying
I don't understand
well she knows me
I don't go that way
It might be better
In another town
When you're never there and
He's never around
If you'd ask me
Well it's just not right
And I'll know that
Until the day that I die
And I listen
To every word you say
It might be your truth but
To me It don't make no sence at all
I don't like this
Mess I'm in
My life's been made out of trouble
Since I don't know when
Well it's been some time now
And i've been on my own
I've had time to think now
And it don't make no sence at all
Well that's just my luck
Anyday now
It'll all break down
I keep saying I don't understand
well she knows I don't go that way
Anyday now
It'll all break down
Yes anyday now
It'll break me
Well c'mon now
Think about it
Take a long hard look at it
You see it don't make no sence at all
