A Thousand Little Wounds (feat. Peter James) - Steve Brand

For the love of God, someone get this girl to shut up Or else I'm leaving, I swear I'm leaving Oh don't you want me to stay Like a summer dress on a wire hanger I can not get off when you're always trying to talk I lose the feeling, I'm lost Oh, I know you'll beg me to change Like a storm curls across the bay Eat the kids in love (I know you're tired, but I think we need to figure this out)

Your life, would you risk that? These kids never been bad Sixteen, run around with a big strap Gone, how many died from the impact? Deepest pain, what a mishap (Mishap) Never worth it when you think back You idolize the rappers that I brung on tour But their lifestyle, never lived that, never did that He didn't want no crud No dead bodies and no blood When a gun man only knows self-hate Them bullets show no love (Blaow) Oh, you thought you was grown, huh? (Huh?) Deal with it on your own, huh? (Huh?) 'Til you get caught footin' your bill When a judge give you life like a grown-up Talk about it, I don't listen when you talk about it Don't lie when you talk about it, I know you lost inside And feel like no one cares about you, I do Feels like no one loves you, I do But it's gonna take more to break the cycle Fuck tryna defend your title When you cold, under arrest, cryin' Another story here for the headlines Love be my destiny Destiny, I'm lost Inside there's something deeper With you, it keeps me warm Love be my destiny Destiny, I'm lost Inside there's something deeper With you, it keeps me warm She fearin" the gun, man Still never leavin' the gun man Stays near to the gun man Drop a likkle tear for the gun man She live and die by the gun, man (Die with the gun man) Tell a lie for the gun man (With the gun man) She will never give him up, no When they ask "Where you hiding the gun man?" (Say no to gun man) She wanna understand the gun man Like, "Why does your gun bang?" He say, "It's a long story Just know these yutes wanna dun man" So, tell me now 'cause I gotta know Are you gonna roll with a gun man? Drop it low for the gun man? Get dough with a gun man? It's the realist life choices She could lose it all for one man Now see, look at what your boy did This all could have been avoided There's no goin' back, you picked your poison Made your choices Well that must have been the best lie Another story for the headlines Go Love be my destiny Destiny, I'm lost Inside there's something deeper With you, it keeps me warm Love be my destiny Destiny, I'm lost Inside there's something deeper With you, it keeps me warm Runnin' with a pistol on my hip And anybody get shot, get it? Any minute know that I'ma switch, uh 'Cause gunfire, it keeps you ready I tried to live a good life, I tell ya But when the streets run back A gunshot for the good guy In this concrete jungle Chaos these days, it's madness If you get caught slippin', they'll do damage They won't see you as practice 'Cause behind all these hoods and black tints It's them boys that are ready for you on sight Them boys gon' get it, won't hide Them boys, they don't wanna hurt your pride Them boys wanna ruin your life Better stay wrapped on them coldest nights Think you're bad, wanna show them, right? Take a chance and roll the dice But you know how the story ends tonight He won't make it back to ends tonight The fuckery is that he knew this guy Who would have thought all these years of bein' his pal He was lookin' his killer in the eyes? Headlines Love be my destiny Destiny, I'm lost Inside there's something deeper With you, it keeps me warm Love be my destiny Destiny, I'm lost Inside there's something deeper With you, it keeps me warm Warm With you it keeps me warm Tell me where you get the gun from Die for the gun man Gun man, tell me where you get the gun from I wonder if America or in England I wonder if Japan or it's made by Russians Lemme tell ya, gun man

Heart beats fast Colours and promises How to be brave? How can I love when I'm afraid to fall? Watching you stand alone All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow One step closer I have died every night waiting for you Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more Time stands still Beauty in all she is I will be brave I will not let anything take away What's standing in front of me Every breath, every hour has come to this One step closer I have died every day waiting for you Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more And all along I believed I would find you Time has brought your heart to me I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more I love you I'd love you for a thousand I'd love you for a thousand years So in love So in love One step closer One step closer I have died every night waiting for you Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more And all along I believed I would find you Time has brought your heart to me I have loved you for a thou-thousand years I'd love you for a thousand more

Oh, she may be weary Young girls they do get weary Wearing that same old shaggy dress But when she gets weary Try a little tenderness You know she's waiting Just anticipating For things that she'll never, never, never, never Possess But while she's there waiting, without them Try a little tenderness (that's all you gotta do, This Is for you) It's not just sentimental, no, no, no She has her grief and care But the soft words they are spoke so gentle It makes it easier, easier to bear You won't regret it, no, no Young girls they never forget it Love is their only happiness But it's all so easy All you gotta do is try a little tenderness Oh, she may be weary Young girls they do get weary Wearing that same old shaggy dress, yeah yeah But when she gets weary Try a little tenderness, yeah yeah You know she's waiting Just anticipating For things that she'll never, never, never, never Possess, yeah But while she's there waiting, without them Try a little tenderness (that's all you gotta do) It's not just sentimental, no, no, no She has her grief and care But the soft words they are spoke so gentle, yeah It makes it easier, easier to bear, yeah You won't regret it, no, no Some girls they don't forget it Love is their only happiness, yeah But it's all so easy All you gotta do is try, try a little tenderness Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her You've got, you've got, you've got Just try a little tenderness, oh yeah yeah yeah

I can take you past the great beyond Live a lifetime before the day is dawned Take a journey, what do you say Let's go swim out in the Milky Way A thousand falling stars in sight I'll catch them in my hat tonight with you I'll catch the stars with you Somewhere inside you there's a wild frontier Close your eyes and we can disappear Take a journey, what do you say What I can show you would take your breath away A thousand falling stars in sight I'll catch them in my hat tonight with you I'll catch the stars with you I know a place we could be there soon Dancing on the surface of the moon And if you want to, we could go all the way Spin you round and round the Milky Way A thousand falling stars in sight I'll catch them in my hat tonight with you I'll catch the stars with you I'll catch the stars with you.
