Echo Park - Marcio Philomena

Yeah, yo You were that foundation Never gonna be another one, no I followed, so taken So conditioned, I could never let go Then sorrow, then sickness Then the shock when you flip it on me So hollow, so vicious So afraid, I couldn't let myself see That I could never be held Back or up, no, I hold myself Check the rep, yep, you know mine well Forget the rest, let them know my hell There and back, yet my soul ain't sell Kept respect up, the best they fell Let the rest be the tale they tell That I was there, saying In these promises broken, deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So, one last lie I can see through This time, I finally let you go, go, go Test my will, test my heart Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up Y'all go hard, I go smart How's that working out for y'all in the back, huh? I've seen that, frustration Been crossed and lost and told no And I've come back, unshaken Let down and lived and let go So, you can let it be known I don't hold back, I hold my own I can't be mapped, I can't be cloned I can't C-flat, it ain't my tone I can't fall back, I came too far Hold myself up and love my scars Let the bells ring wherever they are 'Cause I was there, saying In these promises broken, deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So, one last lie I can see through This time, I finally let you go No, you can tell 'em all now I don't back up, I don't back down I don't fold up, and I don't bow I don't roll over, don't know how I don't care where the enemies are Can't be stopped, all I know, go hard Won't forget how I got this far For every time, saying In these promises broken, deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So, one last lie I can see through This time, I finally let you go (Go), go, (Go) Go (Go), go (Go), go (Go), go (Go), go (Go)

O Philomena You in a tawdry gown Lean to your window Let slip a ribbon down A cure to your boredom If only you'd let me go down Down down Long summer days Can lead to lazy vices Boys all at idle Left to their own devices Open up your linen lap And let me go down Down down All that I wanted in the world Was just to live to see a naked girl But I found I quickly bored I wanted more I wanted more So I'll be your candle I'll be your statuette. I'll be your lashing Loop of leatherette O Philomena if only You'd let me go down. Down down All that I wanted in the world Was just to live to see a naked girl But I found I quickly bored I wanted more Oh so much more So I'll be your candle I'll be your statuette. I'll be your lashing Loop of leatherette O Philomena if only You'd let me go down. Down down Go down down down Go down Go down

You and I can share the silence Finding comfort together The way old friends do And after fights and words of violence We make up with each other The way old friends do Times of joy and times of sorrow We will always see it through Oh, I don't care what comes tomorrow We can make it together the way old friends do You and I can share the silence Finding comfort together The way old friends do And after fights and words of violence We make up with each other The way old friends do Times of joy and times of sorrow We will always see it through Oh, I don't care what comes tomorrow We can make it together the way old friends do We can make it together the way old friends do
