DOWN LOW - Once Upon A Time

 

Until that day I see you again I stand alone your long-lost friend

Canīt wait to see your face again, Iīll be here for you my friend!

 

Seems like through life problems, pleasure and pain, Iīve always been here and I will remain

remembering the days and the times weīs shared, if you need me yo! Iīd be right there.

But now youīre all gone, and Iīm here all alone and now I must face life on my own

I wish you could be here to hold my hand, some things in life I canīt understand

What I am gonna do whitout you? Why did you leave whitout me?

Sometime love comes randonly, but now it abandons me

Every morning I wish I could see your face. Now a quiet vold lies here in your place

And till that day I see you again, death do us part your long-lost friend.

 

All alone whitout you....so alone!!

 

Share my chains, share my cost, take my pain, take my lost,

And if I could turn back the hand of time we would be together now in our minds

Forever in my thought, shall your vision run till the end of time, till times undone

this world is dividing us and canīt provide for us

But still i believe Iīll reach that day and when I come up, around your way

always have a place reserved for me and where I deserve to be

And if I seem to be lost in the storm, forgive me, by and by, and keep me norm

couse till that day I see you again, death do us part, your long-lost friend

 

Until that day I see you again I stand alone your long-lost friend

Canīt wait to see your face again, Iīll be here for you my friend!

DOWN LOW - H.I.V.

Heīs crawling thru your blood, heīs cominī thru your cells...

when you donīt protect yourself, he strikes you

Do you know who he is? Itīs the H.I.V.

 

Here we go, check it out!

Running thru your blood, intervening thru your cells,

I be your worst nightmare, so you can go and tell,

my duty is to take you off this earth, since your birth,

let me tell you how I go to work and how it hurts

In the 20th century they invented me, swallowed meny medicine,

tackled many vaccines

Still standing here on my own and I canīt wait to get up in your home

Iīll destroy your life and even take your wife,

so you better think twice before you take that price...

Iīm coming in a midnight creep, watch ya family weep,

slowly putting that ass to sleep

Iīm much greater as the dominator, you and me one and one

I know, Iīm the remainder

Hopefully I go down in history as a memory, you know my name

Iīll be the H.I.V. !!

 

Chorus:

Somebody please help me, cause I am falling (come on)

Iīm going down, canīt you hear me calling (huh)

Canīt you see, whatīs going on with me

Oh! I need someone to help me!... (Iīll be the H.I.V.)

Somebody please help me, cause I am falling

Iīm going down, canīt you hear me calling (huh)

Canīt you see, whatīs going on with me

Oh! I need someone to help me!... (Iīll be the H.I.V.)

Life is born from unprotected sex,

life is born, sharing needles with the next

Ctach the context as I start to move it on,

listen-up out there to the facts of the song

No feeling when Iīm coming to your heart,

destroy your whole family just to do my part

Can you hear me?

Yo! you do, in twenty more seconds Iīll be inside of you

Slowly see his or her health begins to fall,

and sooner ot later I hear the phone call,

protect yourself or get you a partner thatīs true

Or Iīll be coming yo you, pump it thru!

Thanks for the media for giving me attention,

and while Iīm in your mind,

I like to mention, diseases of this world are family to me

Cause Iīll be the one you hate, Iīll be the H.I.V. !!

Somebody please help me, cause I am falling (come on)

Iīm going down, canīt you hear me calling (huh)

Canīt you see, whatīs going on with me

Oh! I need someone to help me!... (Iīll be the H.I.V.)

 

Bridge:

Is there anybody out there? Does anybody hear me?

Does anybody hear me falling?

Is there anybody out there? Oh, canīt nobody see?

Canīt nobody stop me from falling?? (Iīll be the H.I.V.)

Chorus x 1

DOWN LOW - Johnny B

Ladies and gentlemen
This is the big moment we've all been waiting for
Who is the big man of the year, here they are

Check it out
It's eleven thirty, my hand is gettin' dirty
Snatchin' up things that probably can't be worth it
Now this is a vision of a violent life
Living by a gun and totin' bu a  knife
And I'm slammin' doors, two, four, five and pullin' the keys
These are the tragic valuable luxuries to me
In the early dawn before you yawn
I been there swiped you and then I'm gone
Now at six o'clock my heart take toxs
A black satin bag full of fat-ass rocks
My identity has to be exposed
Steal it from the spot that I have truly chose
I lose and abuse my choice to choose
Now I'm fixed and I'm falling deeper in the mix
There's no hope for me see
My path's been chose and I'm Johnny B.

Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead a green light turns to red
Oh why can't you see, ooh Johnny B.

Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead a green light turns to red
Oh why can't you see, ooh Johnny B.

The situation's tight, you're a villain by the night
You can't choose between the wrongs and the rights
Now I'm searching for the clues, yo what am I to do
I got the habit of takin' valuable things from you
Here I stand and I'm physically trapped by my tan
Driftin' on the breeze travels a distant man
A lonely path when I stand alone
A realm of affliction, abandoned by my own
Here I lay down in to certain death
Evil spirits come and grasp my very last breath
Sometimes I wish reverseness in my path
A simple gesture, a simple laugh
But I'm evil, dirty and mean
Whole prime thoughts pulse through my bloodstream
Frightened, huh, you should be
Who am I, I'm Johnny B.

Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead a green light turns to red
Oh why can't you see, ooh Johnny B.

Here we go, here we go now, check the flow
Here we go, Johnny B. is in control
Here we go, here we go now, check the flow
Here we go, Johnny B. is in control

It's a sleepless night, he's calling your name
It's a lonely ride, I know how you saw him
Again and again, he's chasing his dreams
Yeah, Johnny my friend, it's not what it seems

Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead a green light turns to red
Oh why can't you see, ooh Johnny B.

Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead a green light turns to red
Oh why can't you see, ooh Johnny B.

DOWN LOW - I Wonder Why

 

Yeah, weīre gonna keep droppinī it, see, no stop,

I told you, weīre ainīt gonna stop

If youīre ready, I wonder why?

Weīre gonna do it a little something like this

Sit down, open your mind, here we go

 

Uh, check it

Itīs time to bless you all with eternal hip-hop,

dedicate my life to the low remainders staying at the top

My rap-patters might be simple and form,

but I'm just gettingī started, my styles look warm

I guess I should drop what I burned you here for,

so buckle up, I guess you ran for the door

A girl next door has been touch for years,

and understand why she can't explain to her parents

strange things from beginning was going on in her home

Mammy, years just donīt know what sheīs gone

a father figure missed, she was the power day by day

stocking this girl like carnival to clay,

she lied between the double and the deep blue scene

and he sesame ad vine, even eternally,

teardrops of freedom are running down from my eye,

life is so unfair, I wonder why??

 

I wonder why I donīt let the man cry,

and I canīt change the way that I feel inside

And I wonder why I donīt runninī or hide

from the fears and the tears that I have inside, have inside

 

Yeah, cīmon, uh

Swing you back, to the problem and hand and understand

she need to learn and learn to take command

trapped inside a 4 to5 prison called her home

all alone she cries tryingī to break the syndrome

Now bare witness to this horrible scene

was the mean she was a fiend of yours, a friend of need

Where were you? When she need you the most

I think friends like you got to remains close,

I think she called you at eleven thirty,

the night Johnny B, ya hands were getting dirty

I wish she would just reach out and tell her mother

a rebuild the face of this profane lover,

turn between silence and would see him fear

here's a serious question while I pump it to your ear

Why people must suffer, struggle and cry,

before someone pays attention, I wonder why??

 

I wonder why I don't let the man cry,

and I can't change the way that I feel inside (I wonder why?)

And I wonder why I can't running or hide

from the fears and the tears that I have inside

 

Yeah, can you hear me? Turn me up!

 

I wonder why I donīt let the man cry,

and I canīt change the way that I feel inside

And I wonder why I donīt runnin or hide

from the fears and the tears that I have inside

I wonder why I donīt let the man cry,

and I canīt change the way that I feel inside

And I wonder why I donīt runnin or hide

from the fears and the tears that I have inside, have inside

DOWN LOW "So Long Goodbye…" (single version)

 

Uh, yeah, cīmon, memories of time running thru my mind

So long goodbye…

Aha, can you hear me? Cīmon

 

Many nights, I lay alone in my bed, looking back on the letter she wrote, I just read

I canīt forget the moments and times I have of you,

If youīre save, Dear Lord, to my loneliness rules

Shall I pick up the phone and just dial?

Or maybe shall I think it over, for a while?

The pain is so deep everytime when I sleep and I record it all when I weep

But now we stay distant from one another,

new people in our lives that we claim as lovers

Touching her really donīt quite feel the same,

If you ever been in love once feelings never change

I hope one day she realises and see she could have it all if sheīd stay with me

Some nights I wish I wouldnīt break down and cry, but live must take its course

 

So long goodbye…

So long goodbye, I canīt stay

I donīt want to go away

So long goodbye, donīt you cry

Cry

 

Can you understand that the way that I feel or life tearing us apart for real

I wish I could playback time, but she got her life and I got mine

Before I have to go and before I die, itīs a struggle to live to keep my dreams alive

But one day I swear Iīm gonna reach my goal and just to be on top, whitout selling my soul

And maybe then we can work this out, and maybe then we can talk it out

And maybe then youīll understand what Iīm talking about

 

So long goodbye, I canīt stay

(Uh, yeah, cīmon, memories of time running thru my mind)

So long goodbye, donīt you cry

(can you hear me?)

Cry

 

I canīt stay, so Iīll go, so Iīll go

 

So long goodbye, I canīt stay

I donīt want to go away

So long goodbye, donīt you cry

Cry

 

So long goodbye…

 

Check, check it, check it, chek it out…check, check it, check it, check it out out….

Surrending your glory and your love

In a world full of hatred, violence and pain

You sent this child of joy to bring us love again
