This shit deep
It's getting hard for me to eat and much harder for me to sleep
This shit deep
It's getting hard for me to swim
And much harder to pretend, this shit deep
I don't like the fact I'm feeling like this, this shit deep
I get away but it pull me back in, this shit deep
They said he gone and I said it can't be, this shit deep
They took my dawg when it shoulda been me
In these streets running round acting wild without a purpose
Just youngins having fun not thinking bout the folks we hurting
Different girls different nights, all the drugs all the fights
We was tryna do good but we could never get it right
Then one night we seen this nigga round the way that be hating
I heard he working he a pig so we skinned him like bacon
Beat his ass, took his cash and left his ass outside
Got some snacks, copped some shrill and proceeded to vibe
We at the house on the porch, smoking gas cracking jokes
I was laughing so hard man I damn near choked
Then some babies walked by and started talking to us
Grabbed our phone walked up and start chopping it up
Got the name and the ten, I got her bra got her friend
Made some plans to meet again, we ain't seen them hoes since then
Got a text, after dark meet us at the park
Got my head cap just in case I hit them waters like a shark
This shit deep
It's getting hard for me to eat and much harder for me to sleep
This shit deep
It's getting hard for me to swim
And much harder to pretend, this shit deep
I don't like the fact I'm feeling like this, this shit deep
I get away but it pull me back in, this shit deep
They said he gone and I said it can't be, this shit deep
They took my dawg when it shoulda been me
Freshened up before that time came, hit her up said don't play mind games
Cause I don't need no migraine ya digg
Lol what you mean, we finna eat then we gone leave
We'll be there in bout 13 so just chill
I said chill yea aight, shoulda known it wasn't right
But for coot we went ahead and took that stroll
We sat for 30 whole minutes, the blunt was almost finished
Now I'm texting calling still there's no reply
I told my dawg c'mon let's slide, they done played us them hoes lied
Took the bop back to the house whole time we selling out
A black truck kept riding by, we ain't really think about it
Till it slid that third time then the shots start ringing out
We start sprinting they swung around kept chasing our ass down
I'm praying to make it out, we hit the corner by the house
The last shots got sprayed round and my dawg got laid down
Crying thinking how ima look inside his mama face now
This shit deep
It's getting hard for me to eat and much harder for me to sleep
This shit deep
It's getting hard for me to swim
And much harder to pretend, this shit deep
I don't like the fact I'm feeling like this, this shit deep
I get away but it pull me back in, this shit deep
They said he gone and I said it can't be, this shit deep
They took my dawg when it shoulda been me

    Yes it is about killing his girlfriend I was trying to find out if it was based on true events or an interview with a convicted killer or something but Here's correct lyrics: Author: Dr. Frank So this is goodbye more or less And things have changed a lot I guess In such a mess and so out of hand Though I think it went pretty much as you planned

    It was so hazy till my eyes had cleared Now I can see better but it still looks weird Is that still you lying there? Why can't I find you anywhere?

    I still don't understand this episode Or why you led us down that road But I think you knew where it would lead And how something would come over me

    I still don't know just what it was I guess nobody ever really does Know why they do the things they do Why did I have to follow you?

    Deep deep down Where it isn't safe to be 'Cause I beat you there And now they're comin' after me

    You always were an angel in my eyes And now more than ever the term applies The eyes still see what the soul believes And you look so pretty underneath the leaves

    And though we part forever now I feel you'll be with me somehow I believe in God and you know You're still my angel and I love you so

    Deep deep down Pretty as the scenery You're lying under it But I feel you watching over me

    So now I've got to tear myself away 'Cause they'll just find me if I stay They wouldn't understand what we'd been through Or how I did it all for you

    All to show you how I cared It was the last thing we ever shared Together and I'll cherish the memory And carry a piece of you with me

    Deep deep down Where I'm not supposed to be 'Cause I buried you there And now they're comin' after me

    Deep deep down Deep deep down 'Cause I buried you there And now they're comin' after me

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
