featuring Master P



We gonna ball till we fall

Were real soldiers gonna be there when the homies call x2



Chorus:

If you're lost and you look then you will find me

Time after time (only time will tell)

If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting

Time after time



Kane:

The ghetto's tryin to kill me

That's why I stay faded and stoned

Cause when I leave the house I never know if I'm comin home

Bullets got no name it's the dirty game

Wannabe thugs drive by for some ghetto fame

The homie got popped six times needs surgery

Hit my cigar holdin tears cause its hurtin me

I write my cousin in the pen to see if he okay

He's locked up on his little girl's first birthday

To this day love my homies dearly down to die wit em'

I ball and they ball you hear me ima ride wit em'

You fall then we fall I be there when you need me

Its easy all you gotta do is beep me



Chorus x3



(Rapping while chorus is still going)

Master P:

We gonna ball till we fall

We're real soldiers we'll be there when the homies call



Master P:

This Ghetto Got Me trapped

And homies I feel your pain

See these streets is like a living hell

and the devil be the dope man

And everybody want to fix from heron to even powder

My little nephew's a crack baby

When he hollas momma put dinner in his baby bottle

These streets got me doin' shit that I really don't want to

But niggas gotta be strapped

with bulletproof vest or homies will ride

Through and just blast on you

And the game got me trippin

But you know I'm never slippin

And every bitch wit a pretty face and a big butt

you can't just jump in a pool skinny-dippin

Cause you know what life ain't the same nigga

And I mean times can change keep your eyes on your enemy

If you a hustler get what you got to get and get out man

Cause ah see these streets they don't pay to be dumb

And real homies stick together like Kane and Able, P and down to ride

When the time come



Chorus x2



(Rapping while chorus still going)

Master P:

We gonna ball till we fall

We're real soldiers we'll be there when the homies call x2



Abel:

I watched my nieces and nephews grow

Before my very eyes

I pray that they could make somethin' out of their lives

You could lose your breath at the speed of light

What if I'm deaf chasin' dream's in the heat of the night

You might could lose your sight

In these streets ain't no peace

What your eyes see the last man standing off his feet

But times have changed neva love material thangs

If I could promise anythang you gonna leave the way you came

Check my homie Sean Digs doin' life plus one

(So) when he called me collect to accept I press one

My Benz is your Benz, my house is your home

If you eva need a friend then call Abel on the phone



Chorus x3

(Yo)

(This is for the real ballers and players out there)

(Time after time)

(Haha)

(Gonna ball till' we fall

but we gotta be there when the homies call)

(We bout it bout it)

(For real send a few dollars to your boy

in the penitentiary keep your boy on the streets)

(You know what real homies stick together

they don't turn on each other remember that)

(No Limit family baby)

(Master P, Kane, and Abel)

(To the world)

(Haha)

(We're here when all our homies need us

though you heard me ain't nothing changed)

(Just gotta live with changin through

'cause it still the same though it still the same)

(Down for whateva)

(No Limit For Life Baby)

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
