KJ-52 - Behind The Musik lyrics

rate me

June 26th 1975

In Miami Florida Was The Place I First Arrived

My Parents Smiled As I Opened Up My Blue Eyes

Cuz They Was Newly Married And I Was Their First Child

My Pop Was From Jersey My Mom Was From Miami

They Met In The Bed Stuy Brooklyn Nyc

At Art College And Yes They Was Hippies

So I Guess That Makes Me Child Of The Sixties

But Anyways We Didn't Stay We Moved To Plant City

Then To Lakeland Then To Miami Then To Ybor City

Living In The Hood Where Things Are Never Ever Pretty

The Only White Kid Smack Dab In The Inner City

My Playground Is A Parking Lot Plus A Back Ally

At Times I Would Wake Up In The Dark With No Electricity

On Top Of That We Were Struggling Cause We Got No Money

And Going Through This Inside It's Killing Me

On And On On And On

You Love Goes On

On And On On And On

I Was About 6 When All This Was Goin On

Things Began To Change Everything I Knew Was Up And Gone

They Separated On The Weekends I Would See My Mom

Still Living With My Pops In My Hood But Not For Too Long

When I Was Nine They Divorced And I Was Moving On

To The Suburbs With My Mom Cause Courts Said It Was Wrong

For Me To Be Living In The Hood With My Dad So I'm Up And Gone

Mom Remarried And Had A Baby We Living In My Grandmas Home

We Living In A Neighborhood That's Middle Class

But I Felt Poor Because Of Some Things I Didn't Have

Time Passed We Moved Out But Still Thing Aint Right

I'm Slipping Fast At Home All I Do Is Fight And Yell

My Grades Start To Crash Plus I Ran Away From Home Twice

And Almost Got Shot By The Cops One Single Night

I Started High School And Party All The Time

But Little Did I Know What Was Gonna Happen To My Lifeon And On On And On

You Love Goes On

On And On On And On

At 15 Had A Talk With My Cousin Got Me Thinking

Was There More To Life Than Girls Partying And Drinking

I Picked Up His Bible And Started Reading Revelations

For Some Reason I Was Crying When I Reach The Ending

Now God Was Working On Me And This Was The Beginning

The First Time In A Long While That I Started Praying I Had To Move Again And Again And Say Goodbye To Everyone/

My Dad And My Friends Was Once Again All Up And Gone

Brand New School By Myself Sitting All Alone

Feeling Like A Fool Every Single Day I ’ èm Coming Home

But I Would Listen Every Night In My Bedroom To Gospel Radio Preach About Christ And Just Then Soon

I Gave My Life To Him Everything Became New

I Was Born Again I've Never Been The Same Dude

Ya Took My Sin And My Guilt And Let Them Blame You

And On And On Though The Years You Always Came Through

On And On On And On

Your Love Goes On

On And On On And On

It Was November And The Year Was 1995

I Still Remember The Very First Date With My Wife

And I Was On My Own Doing Shows Part Time

Twenty Years Old Just Trying To Make Something Of My Life

I Moved Away Home When I Was Only Eighteen

Broke As A Joke Making Music Trying To Chase A Dream

And Everybody Seems To Think I'm Crazy Except For Me

But God Was There Every Time To Supply My Needs

I Went On Staff At A Church In The Inner City

Writing Rhymes In My Spare Time For My Cd

I Mailed My Demo To A Label Named Gotee

And Out Of Nowhere Todd Collins Up And Called Me

He Said He Heard My Junk And Plus He Wanted To Sign Me

My Heart Jumped And Plus I Want To Cry And Scream

But All I Did Was Hung Up The Phone Quietly And Thanked God How He Always Provided For Me

On And On On And On

Your Love Goes On

On And On On And On
