Lyfe Jennings - 26 Years, 17 days

Tekst :

I was looking for God at my grandmother s house
underneath the cushions on the couch
I looked all around side to side up and down
that man was no where to be found
So I called my grandmama on the phone
said old lady you best get home
cause God aint where you said he would be
and there s something that I really need to speak to him about immediately
She said boy tell Granny what s wrong is there something I can do
I said big mama now it s a sensitive issue
and Lord knows I don t wanna worry you
but I need somebody to talk to

Chorus:
It s done been 26 years 17 days
been to 5 different prisons got 2 babies on the way
and they say it ll be a waste of time to pray
seeing that I m going to hell anyway (2x)

2nd Verse:
I done smoked weed with the best of ya ll
shot at all the rest of ya ll
my heart hurts like an old man with high cholesterol
the preacher said that I m the dirtiest dude he ever saw
shouldn t even be livin
and he a Christian
Shoulda been dead like 17 times for 17 crimes I committed
took em all to trial and got accuited
Left wavin my middle finger in the air whispered in the prosecutor s ear, yeah I did it
I done stole everything from dreams to wedding rings
auctioned off my soul for material things
but lately its been kinda botherin me
I guess that turtle always catches up with the rabbit eventually

Chorus 2x/Bridge:
Somebody loves you baby whoa whoa whoa somebody loves you baby (4x)

    Amanece

    Cuando te vi comencé a temblar
    no soy muy bueno en disimular
    se me noto que guste de ti
    eras alguien que se me acercaba
    eras alguien que me conquistaba

    *(falta)
    se me acerca alguien como tu
    *(falta)
    no estoy solo
    hace tiempo salgo con alguien
    que me espera en casa
    tu nueva tentación
    para mi hambriento corazón

    No voy a ser tu...

    Ode to

    No thanks
    No more
    No love

    I’m done
    I’ve had enough

    You’re going off with her
    And I wish I was
    But there’s another can be
    Just because

    All right
    Be on your way
    The kindest thing to say
    Is not that you have fallen for me say
    You’ll come...

    Nobody home

    Main Street U.s.a Boarded Up and Dry
    Knowin What Once Was Here Just Makes Me Wanna Cry
    Used to Be the Favorite Place
    Now What Remains Are Memories Even Time Cannot Erase

    Old Man Johnson s Store, Where We Grew Up Too Fast
    All That Remains Today Are Echoes From the Past
    Used to Be...

    Back on the rocks

    When you get to the top, you ever been to the top?
    Just listen, let me tell ya, hear what your missin?, shut up and listen.

    In the beginning you get crazy, spending all the money you got.
    No more women to love you now, you gotta go and...

    Relative

    A flashlight
    Isn t quite sunlight
    But any light at all seems bright
    When you re looking in the dark
    A wet Dream
    Isn t the real thing
    It isn t really anything
    But at least it makes a spark
    And all is relative, relative
    Everything is relative, yes it...
