J'ai ton cœur qui tape Qui cogne dans mon corps et dans ma tête J'ai des images qui s'entêtent. J'ai des ondes de chaleur et comme des cris de douleur Qui circulent dans mes veines Quand je marche dans ma ville j'ai des moments qui défilent De ton pays d'ailleurs ou tu meurs. Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Je vis avec ton regard depuis le jour de mon départ Tu grandis dans ma mémoire. Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? J'ai des mots qui frappent Qui sonnent Et qui font mal comme personne C'est comme la vie qui s'arrête. J'ai des mouvements de colère sur le troisième millénaire Tout casser et tout refaire. J'ai pas manque de courage Mais c'était bien trop facile Te laisser en héritage un exil. Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Ta princesse de hasard est passée comme une étoile En emportant ton espoir. Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Où es-tu Où es-tu? Où es-tu Où es-tu? Où es-tu Où es-tu? Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar J'ai ton cœur qui tape Qui cogne Dans mon corps et dans ma tête Babacar J'ai des mots qui frappent Qui sonnent C'est comme la vie qui s'arrête. Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu? Babacar J'ai ton cœur qui tape Qui cogne J'ai des images qui s'entêtent Babacar J'ai des mots qui frappent Qui sonnent Dans mon corps et dans ma tête. Babacar Où es-tu Où es-tu?

You are the treasure that I seeked You were close to me yet I did not know The love that I seeked for many years Was right beside Me Yet I couldn't feel it When I close my eyes (My eyes) I see you coming to me My girl I didn't know that it was our hearts speaking To each other When the breeze of love (Of love) Flow you to me my Girl (My Angel) I thought it was an everlasting love But it hurts me to see you go You made me cry When you said you were going I cried When you left me alone I wish...(I wish) I could hold you close Once again to my heart You made me cry When you said you were going (When you were leaving) I cried When you left me alone I wish... (I wish) I could hold you close Once again to my heart ... oooh You are the treasure that I seeked You were close to me and I did not Know The love that I seeked for many years Was right Beside me Yet I couldn't feel it When I close my eyes (My eyes) I see you coming to me My girl I didn't know that it was our hearts speaking To each other When the breeze of love (Of love) Flow you to me my girl (My Angel) I thought it was an everlasting love But it hurts me to see you go You Made me cry When you said you were going I cried...(i cried) When you left me alone I wish...(I wish) I could hold you close Once again to my heart You made me cry When you said you were going (When you were leaving) I cried When you left me alone I wish...

"Vipassana is a science of mind and matter How the mind is influencing the body And later, how the body is influencing the mind" Yesterday? Forget it Tomorrow is? Nada The present is right here, through the breath, watch it Atheist Jesus piece, hangin' on a cross We sit and discuss God on lawn chairs About how we got here What it is, what it isn't, shit Fate versus faith, scrimmaging with coincidence Leave out the marketing, hold up on the business end Focus on the genuine, and everything else, you can shed the skin I was a couple moves away from being dead In that ER overdosing, eyes bleeding red I fell in love, made an album, got a buzz Lost it all, sobered up, and guess what? Now we meet again And now I'm back, finally just laughin' Expectations are resentments waiting to happen Studying the dharma, karma, vipassana practice Bahá'u'lláh, Buddha, God, to the mountaintop and I'm traveling Learning, yes, reflecting on what matters People, impermanence, lack of attachments It's space and time, a couple of man-made distractions The measure of a spirit that no human can ever capture Church, this booth is my Vatican I don't control life, but I can control how I react to it Student of the breath, brick beats and balancin' Desire versus truth until I finally find happiness I was put here to do something before I'm lying in that casket I'd be lying on the beat if I said I didn't know what that is The world's a stage and we play a character, I found him It took me 20-something years and a bunch of shitty soundchecks I'm not gonna be content 'til I find gratitude Regardless of my sales or the record deals they're handing you If the next generation takes our legacy and samples you We'll have a bunch of mp3s and misled kids to pass 'em to I use my veins to create the color I paint from Delve into self 'til my heart becomes my paint brush I told my mama I'm not stoppin' 'til my name's up Thinking those comments on that blog is gonna save us Searchin' for everything but God to validate you Get insecure and then we start blaming the haters Used to look to women to fill a part of me that was vacant Truth, the only thing that I ever used in moderation So I stare into this paper instead of sitting at a cubicle Take all the ugly shit inside and try to make it beautiful Use the cement from rock bottom and make it musical So the people can relate to where I've been Where I'm going, what I've seen, what I've heard From the guts, fuck the glory Just a person on a porch putting it all into recording Many in my past and many that came before me I just keep walkin' my path and blessed to share my story

Could we take this life a little slower than we used to Than we used to Are my eyes More like story tellers of what's past Are my eyes The triggers of a story that won't last Feels in the path of a past storm Emotions of the past got me transformed You're back in the game but summer is over Warn me when the water is getting warmer Could we take this life a little slower than we used to Than we used to Please don't open This old folder Files unspoken So much colder Chills in my back give me fevers Those pictures of the past, is it over? Placed me in a frame, summer is colder Warn me when your skin is getting warmer Can we live this life a little closer like we used to Than we used to Can you open This new folder Files unwritten Let me write them
