Magnetic North - You And You |
| [00:00.00] |
|
| [00:00.96] |
This is for my family, this is for my crew. |
| [00:03.28] |
And this is for us too, direct, and t-vu! |
| [00:05.76] |
And for everyone that held us down, through and through, |
| [00:08.31] |
Like... you and you, cuz |
| [00:09.90] |
You and you are the best things, worth remembering. |
| [00:13.64] |
Nothing lasts forever so lets keep pretending, |
| [00:16.15] |
And just live in the present, cuz in the end, |
| [00:18.65] |
All i need, to be, is in your presence. |
| [00:20.01] |
|
| [00:20.51] |
(derek "direct" kan) |
| [00:21.01] |
If your lova-is giving you drama, it don't matter |
| [00:23.78] |
If you struggulin within your conscience, it don't matter |
| [00:26.29] |
If your credit is getting obnoxious, it don't matter, |
| [00:28.86] |
Cuz the only thing that matters is that we have been gathered |
| [00:31.04] |
|
| [00:31.54] |
So act-like bananas, don't ask-why just abandon |
| [00:34.08] |
All those phantoms that, drag your spirits down like titanic |
| [00:36.72] |
I don't care if you're a manic depressive, we goin manage, |
| [00:39.27] |
To relax, enjoy the weather, and just bask in our companions |
| [00:41.38] |
|
| [00:41.88] |
And that's the plan, period, i'm serious |
| [00:44.75] |
We goin have fun, as if, today-was-the last one to live |
| [00:47.36] |
Cuz the sad truth is, our paths don't always pass |
| [00:49.85] |
Our lives are fast moving, yo these times are all we have |
| [00:51.67] |
|
| [00:52.17] |
So grab a glass or bottle for all, you alcoholics, |
| [00:55.01] |
And play some jams for all you dancers and nostalgics |
| [00:57.62] |
Cuz these are the days that matter the most, cuz yo |
| [01:00.21] |
Nothing last forever but damnit we'll come close |
| [01:02.60] |
|
| [01:03.10] |
And here's a toast |
| [01:03.60] |
|
| [01:04.10] |
This is for my family, this is for my crew. |
| [01:06.52] |
And this is for us too, direct, and t-vu! |
| [01:08.95] |
And for everyone that held us down, through and through, |
| [01:11.50] |
Like... you and you, cuz |
| [01:13.14] |
You and you are the best things, worth remembering. |
| [01:16.80] |
Nothing lasts forever so lets keep pretending, |
| [01:19.22] |
And just live in the present, cuz in the end, |
| [01:21.84] |
All i need, to be, is in your presence. |
| [01:23.33] |
|
| [01:23.83] |
(theresa "t-" vu) |
| [01:24.33] |
I dig deep |
| [01:25.27] |
Searching for the phrases to speak |
| [01:26.99] |
My amazement that ya'll have stayed with me |
| [01:29.05] |
Through sleet, rain and the snow |
| [01:30.95] |
Its weak that my range of emotions can't show |
| [01:33.49] |
What you faithful should know |
| [01:34.32] |
|
| [01:34.82] |
So you thats what this song's for |
| [01:36.54] |
And every encore |
| [01:37.83] |
Subsequently |
| [01:38.79] |
Is yours and yours |
| [01:40.21] |
So dont' forget me, i won't forget you |
| [01:42.73] |
And don't you let me, get sentimental |
| [01:44.88] |
|
| [01:45.38] |
Nope! no more thinking, lets get to drinking |
| [01:47.93] |
Arms around shoulders shot glasses clinking |
| [01:50.42] |
It feels like a blink since early adolescence |
| [01:53.03] |
When i was a wide eyed uc berkeley freshman |
| [01:55.11] |
|
| [01:55.61] |
But now we are destined, for different things |
| [01:57.90] |
Time flies whether or not you try to clip its wings |
| [02:00.37] |
I hope you listening, cuz i don't say it a lot |
| [02:03.04] |
But aside from hip hop, you're all that i got |
| [02:05.21] |
|
| [02:05.71] |
Yo you're all that i got |
| [02:06.75] |
|
| [02:07.25] |
This is for my family, this is for my crew. |
| [02:09.69] |
And this is for us too, direct, and t-vu! |
| [02:12.15] |
And for everyone that held us down, through and through, |
| [02:14.68] |
Like... you and you, cuz |
| [02:16.32] |
You and you are the best things, worth remembering. |
| [02:20.02] |
Nothing lasts forever so lets keep pretending, |
| [02:22.43] |
And just live in the present, cuz in the end, |
| [02:25.18] |
All i need, to be, is in your presence. |
| [02:26.60] |
|
| [02:27.10] |
(direct) |
| [02:27.60] |
Yo it's times like these that we need to clean |
| [02:30.10] |
Our minds from the evil and needless things |
| [02:32.60] |
That occupy our being from feeling free |
| [02:35.14] |
So we can smile and release what is deep beneath |
| [02:37.28] |
|
| [02:37.78] |
Cuz these moments we have are too precious to be |
| [02:40.49] |
Just a moment... passing evanescently |
| [02:43.00] |
So i wrote this, beat to dedicate these |
| [02:45.66] |
Words i hope are worthy to show ya what your friendship means |
| [02:47.32] |
|
| [02:47.82] |
(t) |
| [02:48.32] |
And if it seems i take you for granted |
| [02:50.20] |
Understand |
| [02:50.99] |
This song is more than the liner notes expanded |
| [02:53.04] |
Or a hallmark card written in iambic |
| [02:55.54] |
Cuz damnit, right or wrong you'll never be abandoned |
| [02:57.84] |
|
| [02:58.34] |
Left stranded never that whatever wrath |
| [03:01.37] |
Trust i'll follow you down whatever path |
| [03:03.80] |
Even if you trespassed into the depths of hell |
| [03:06.18] |
Cuz you're a part of me i can't dissect myself |
| [03:08.00] |
|
| [03:08.45] |
(direct) |
| [03:08.95] |
And to all my peeps that helped me carry the weight, |
| [03:11.32] |
I sincerely thank you, for this amazing grace |
| [03:13.92] |
Cuz through the trials and the trauma we barely made it |
| [03:16.46] |
So now's let's celebrate with no more drama like mary j did. |
| [03:18.53] |
|
| [03:19.03] |
(t) |
| [03:19.53] |
This is dedicated, to friends and fam |
| [03:21.84] |
Bartenders and, anyone who ever gave a damn, |
| [03:25.20] |
Stayed, or backed me up |
| [03:26.93] |
Or even just a hand shake, dap or love |
| [03:29.36] |
Am i sap or what. (yup) |
| [03:30.70] |
|
| [03:31.20] |
This is for my family, this is for my crew. |
| [03:33.59] |
And this is for us too, direct, and t-vu! |
| [03:36.02] |
And for everyone that held us down, through and through, |
| [03:38.56] |
Like... you and you, cuz |
| [03:40.32] |
You and you are the best things, worth remembering. |
| [03:43.85] |
Nothing lasts forever so lets keep pretending, |
| [03:46.30] |
And just live in the present, cuz in the end, |
| [03:48.89] |
All i need, to be, is in your presence. |
| [03:51.89] |
