How Come by Embrace
http://www.sendspace.com/file/ouu7y6

We were so young
full of life and vibrance
side by side, wherever you were riding
So close, like bonnie and clyde did
When Ronnie died you were right by my side
with a tissue you wiped my eyes
and a bucket to catch each tear I cried inside

How come we dont even talk no more
And you dont even call no more
We dont barely keep in touch at all
and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grapevine, we been beefin Now
After all the years we been down, there's no way no how
This just cant be true
We're family, there's nothing changed unless its you

You even had the same type of childhood I did
sometimes I wonder why you succaim to yours
and mine I survived it. You ran the streets, I 9 to 5ed it
we grew up, grew apart as time went by us
I blew up to both yours and mines surprises.
Now I feel a vibe I that I try but I just cant describe

How come we dont even talk no more
And you dont even call no more
We dont barely keep in touch at all
and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grapevine, we been beefin Now
After all the years we been down, there's no way no how
This just cant be true
We're family, there's nothing changed unless its you

How come we dont even talk no more
And you dont even call no more
We dont barely keep in touch at all
and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grapevine, we been beefin Now
After all the years we been down, there's no way no how
This just cant be true
We're family, there's nothing changed unless its you



Warrior Song by Nas feat. Alicia Keys
http://www.sendspace.com/file/h1p5u1

[Nas]
Uh, If I can teach somethin' so dear
And hope somebody learn somethin' from it
And give it back

[Verse1]
They can't break me or shake me
They too fake to come kill me
Think they faith this was satan
They mistake me I'm filthy
Rich off the ghetto madness, so now they wanna dare me
It's gonna be a murder confront me, the burners are empty
Middle Passage I made it I'm from the land of David
The Nazarene of Bethlehem they had me wrapped in blankets
That bunch of backward gangsters
That sign of Alpha Davis
Snitches with smile-like faces got you blowin' trial I hear this
Hopin' my child can see through this tryna be a good daddy
I was there when she was born and she'll be there when I'm buried
Kind o' waitin' is scary
All my years have prepared me
What I fear is my temper, I subject to the center
Right through a man's soul
Straight through his eyes, straight through his heart I'm still alive how did I make it this far
'Cause I been high I been low, searchin' for a way to go
Every single night I pray
And Lord I'm on this battleground, lost just waitin' to be found
I guess it's just a warrior's way

[Chorus (1): Alicia Keys]
This is the song, for my warriors
A warrior song Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior
Definition of a warrior
Gonna keep marchin' on, to the sound of her own beatin' drum

[Verse2]
Like King Nasir fightin' the
British regime I can't cope my existence is hope for younger teens who lost in their world
Earlier this year I buried my queen in a gold casket
Your mother's the closest thing to
God that you ever have kid I'm askin, what would you do at your own mom's funeral
Wanna pick her up out of it, this can't be real
Tellin' my daughter grandma's gone, but
I can't keep still I can't go on, responsible for so many
Her last days at the hospital
Visits from family I'm tryin' not to bust shots at niggas
Wishin' death on other nigga's mothers ain't right but why mommy
She raised me in the projects alone
Her untimely exit from her, heavenly body
Got me ready to embody somethin' quickly
Can't be happy, fuck a party she can't party with me
So your apologies are burnin' ya own souls
To the kids with no parents at home, grab a whole

[Chorus (2): Alicia Keys]
This is the song, for my warriors
A warrior song
Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior
(Uh, warriors)
Gonna keep marchin' on, to the sound of her own beatin' drum

[Verse3]
Fight 'til the fight is over, for my peoples I die see
When you thought they were soldiers they turned out to be nobodies
I think they out to get me, helpless was livin' sinful If you was me
all this pain I'm feelin would bend and killed you
(I'm a Warrior)
It only made me stronger
But in my head it gets darker who wishin' evil on ya
Sometimes I wish I was dead
But I took heed to the cause
(I'm a Warrior, yeah)
'Cause I been high I been low, searchin' for a way to go
Every single night I pray
And Lord I'm on this battleground, lost just waitin' to be found I guess it's just a warrior's way

[Chorus x3 (1) Until End: Alicia Keys]

[Nas]
To my warriors
To all these, baby Krucial
Keys! Braveheart y'all
This to all my warriors, who breathe with the heart of a lion
To everybody that lost their mother, their father
Rest in peace moms!
My mother's last words:
Never give up
A true warrior, who raised me in the hood, in a war
Love ya girl, y'kno keep marchin'
Yea yea yea, you never give up
To all my warriors, haha
Braveheart, Braveheart
Definition of a warrior


Cathedrals by Jump, Little Children
http://www.sendspace.com/file/1jc70j

n the shadows of tall buildings of fallen angels on the ceilings,
oily feathers in bronze and concrete,
faded colors, pieces left incomplete.
The line moves slowly, past the electric fence,
across the borders, between continents,

in the cathedrals of New York and Rome,
there is a feeling that you should just go home
and spend a lifetime finding out just where that is.

In the shadows of tall buildings, the architecture is slowly peeling;
marble statues and glass dividers,
someone is watching all of the outsiders …
The line moves slowly through the numbered gate,
past the mosaic of the head of state,

in the cathedrals of New York and Rome,
there is a feeling that you should just go home
and spend a lifetime finding out just where that is.

In the shadows of tall buildings, of open arches endlessly kneeling;
sonic landscapes, echoing vistas,
someone is listening from a safe distance..
The line moves slowly into a fading light -
a final moment in the dead of night,

in the cathedrals of New York and Rome,
there is a feeling that you should just go home
and spend a lifetime finding out just where that is.


66 by Afghan Whigs

* You walked in
Just like smoke
With a little come on, come on, come on
In your walk
Well, come on
I've been waitin'
Are you waitin?
For my move, well I'm makin' it
So tell me baby, can you shake it?
If I can move it with ya
Will you let me take it?
I'll be down on my knees
Screamin' take me, take me, take me, take me
I'm yours
I've never felt so out of control
You don't even know what you're doin' to me
Come on and do it to me
Don'tcha stop
Come on, come on
Come on little rabbit
Show me where you got it
'Cuz I know you got a habit
