Ellis Paul lyrics
"Translucent Soul Lyrics"
I get a call from Vance he's an old friend
He's got some you-won't-believe-story to share
He's the place that I go when I need someone who knows me
He brings the smile of a billionaire
And I laugh when he pretends he's a white guy
'Cause he knows how bad I fail playing black
He says, ";If even you could, I don't advise that you should
'Cause once you go there you might not want to turn back";
Volume 4 Lyrics
I spend time, searching my mind, walking blindly I'm a live but I don't know why my thoughts threat me Paranoia, fear and guilt, I hope I don't explode I'm a bomb that ya can't diffuse, a gun that ya ca

But, let's make it clear even on the way here,

walking the streets where the riots went down.
You got black killing black killing black killing black,
while all the whites were sweating bullets across town";
(chorus)
He says, ";In L.A., they're whispering race war,
like it's something that has yet to begin
like they can plug up the cracks
Silver Blue Gold Lyrics
In the beginning, I believed every word that you said Now that you're gone, My world is in shreads Oh you loved me, and left me, You took all the thing
and prove that the melting pot's not broken";
He says, ";In the event of some unlikely disaster,
we find ourselves armed, and face to face ";
I said, ";I'd turn around, I would protect your ground";
He said, ";I'd do the same thing for you at your place";
(chorus)
There isn't a thing
in this God-all-mighty world that he wouldn't do
to help me outt
