He's on his way He's moving to Hollywood He's bussing into Hollywood Show him the way He's moving to Hollywood He's hopping into Hollywood He's waited at bus stops, all his life He's been in and out of lost places Seen eyes that spoke to him From sad and empty place He's on his way He's moving to Hollywood He's bussing into Hollywood Show him the way He's moving to Hollywood He's hopping into Hollywood You know he's gonna be Dressed to kill He's gonna find some brand new thrill What ever it is he's looking for You better tell him that there's so much more In Hollywood, Hollywood He's on his way He's moving to Hollywood He's bussing into Hollywood Show him the way He's moving to Hollywood He's hopping into Hollywood Painted faces Sunburned skin Mixed expressions Smile whore thin Caught in the blink of Hollywood And in battle of maneuvering skin False expressions, washed out dreams Everybody makes believe, in Hollywood He's on his way He's moving to Hollywood He's bussing into Hollywood Show him the way He's moving to Hollywood He's hopping into Hollywood

Everything around you see The Ankhs, the wraps, the plus degrees And yes even the mysteries Its all me Sometimes it hard to move you see When you growing publicy But if I have to chose between I chose me Had 2 babies different dudes And for them both my luv was true This is my last interview, oooh Hey there's me, ooh This year I turned 36 Damn it seems it came so quick My ass and legs have gotten thick yea Its all me I use to pray to God above But now Im filled with so much luv But even if the world cant see Its still me Will I escape this vanity? Or will I keep on smoking trees? But I'll just let it go and be, be, be Me Ah, leave it alone babe Well well well Ah oh, leave it alone babe Just being me Ah, leave it alone babe Well well well Ah oh, leave it alone babe Just being me Sometimes I dont know what to say So many leaders to obey But I was born on saviors day, yes So I chose me And in the world of greed and hate They may try to erase my face But millions spring up in my place Ooh, believe in me As sure is all and all is one We all should grow before its done So I salute you Farrakan, yes Cuz you are me Before I end this crazy dream Before I take one for the team Yo ass done matched the gasoline, yes That's Collene

They don't know their language They don't know their God They take what they're given Even whan it feels Odd They say their grandfathers and grandmothers work hard for nothing And we still in this ghetto So they end up in prisons They end up in blood They keep us uneducated, Sick and depressed (They end up in blood) Doctor I'm addicted now I'm under arrest (They end up in blood) We makin' mo' money than a muthafucka (They end up in blood) With no choices there's no hope for us (They end up in blood) Started with a rhyme from old ancient times Descendants of warlocks, Witches with ill glitches Children of the matrix be hittin' them car switches Seen some Virgin Virgos hanging out with Venus Bitches 'Cause They don't know their language They don't know their God They take what they're given Even when it feels odd They say their grandfathers and grandmothers work hard for nothing And we still in this ghetto So they end up in prisons They end up in blood They keep us uneducated, Sick and depressed (They end up in blood) Doctor, I'm addicted now I'm under arrest (They end up in blood) We makin' mo' money than a muthafucka (They end up in blood) With no choices there's no hope for us (They end up in blood)

Put your lips close to mine As long as they don't touch Out of focus, eye to eye 'Til the gravity's too much And I'll do anything you say If you say it with your hands And I'd be smart to walk away But you're quicksand This slope is treacherous This path is reckless This slope is treacherous And I, I, I like it I can't decide if it's a choice Getting swept away I hear the sound of my own voice Asking you to stay All we are is skin and bone Trained to get along Forever going with the flow But you're friction This slope is treacherous This path is reckless This slope is treacherous I, I, I like it Two headlights shine through the sleepless night And I will get you, get you alone Your name has echoed through my mind And I just think you should, think you should know That nothing safe is worth the drive And I would follow you, follow you home I'll follow you, follow you home This hope is treacherous This daydream is dangerous This hope is treacherous I, I, I I, I, I I, I, I Two headlights shine through the sleepless night And I will get you, get you alone Your name has echoed through my mind And I just think you should, think you should know That nothing safe is worth the drive And I will follow you, follow you home I'll follow you, follow you home I'll follow you, follow you home I'll follow you, follow you home This slope is treacherous I, I, I like it
