We just keep on rockin' (7x)

86'in it
We was 5 bricks in it
Firm like a silicon tit in it
Had the sticks and the 40's all thick in it
Workin hard like we cotton-pickin it
Now we shittin it
Herb spittin it
Atom and neutron headz splittin it
Keep the clique (?) you know whatever syncin it
Press the record button start printin it
Now she winkin it
I's trickin it
Stuffed about a couple-a inch in it
UK represent, U-Kickin it
Wide open, stop you from blinkin it
We be overseas, battleship sinkin it
Your rhymes sound like you put no think in it
You out for the Rolly look and the mink in it
While we sportin the real roller-rink in it
Skate like we wearin the ice to infinite
Bout it like we runnin with P and No Limit
Straight and no gimmick
We all bout to it (?)
From Piccadilly Circus down to Conduit
Ask how we do it
Keepin the fix in it
Lay some old shit, complete the mix in it
Expenses we trimmin, I'm out to afford
I'm tryin to even see the lawn from backyard to the brawl (?)

From Capetown to Leeds (we just keep on rockin)
We at incredible speeds (we just keep on rockin)
LA over to France, we make your hoes dance
Fulfillin all your needs (we just keep on rockin)

And wild out to London (we just keep on rockin)
You know how we run it (we just keep on rockin)
Whether the mountains of Maine or beaches out in Spain
We out to go sun it (we just keep on rockin)

Yo, take your style to the back, to the back of the bus
We front seat drive, no one else stares but us
Never the act of, I activate the jam
That be my life Baby J (?) and you know who I am
The fans pulling cameras out like guns to shoot
We got this rap shit tied without the suit
Lookin for loot, in all the right places to look
And tonight it's in your pocket so pay these cooks
Cause we servin up a batch of the words to match
Hand delivered with some drugs that Mace attached (Maceo!)
My combos concrete, ask the fleet
Or better yet ask your crew who knows defeat
But beyond that I be the capital cat (?)
Known to dog a girl out with wax or dat (all that?)
Bring official illustration to woman and man
Solo, individual, group or clan
Put the chap (?) to the neck to watch you nod
Flippin rhymes on the even, off the odd
Fresh off the pod, I got the gifted place
What you need to taste up in your face
Straight with no chase, move on and on
We splicin projects with some herbal-ons (?)
De La never pitchin you run of the mill
So watch my infantry storm all over the hill

40 below in Alaska (we just keep on rockin)
To the folks in Madagascar (we just keep on rockin)
When we in Philly eatin cheese steaks with Aunt Milly
We still gonna blast ya (we just keep on rockin)

Up in the Alps of Switzerland (we just keep on rockin)
To the white cliffs of Dover (we just keep on rockin)
High tech like Japan, and out to Scotland
Where they ain't never sober (we just keep on rockin)

It's singulary like the Odd Couple, kinda hot on the pavement
Your style is pretty like floral arrangements
Engaged but, she bitchin bout the wedding (word?)
Seen a lot of ass so where's my ass-headin?
Miss my Pro-Keds with the stripes on the bottom
Always cross my t's but my i's I don't dot em
See the rules ain't the rules if they ain't bein broke
We old-folkin it, got you smokin it
Herb communications cause we talk that talk
Whether Yorkshire or New York, New York
Deep from the sleeps, I'm gettin Nightmares on Wax
Fear can't exist if you got the facts
And if you gots to ask, well you ain't heard about us
Holdin more cream than the cream in clam chowders
We deep like Parliament, parts of it
We keeps at all ease from the start to get (?)

You can find my rhymes where paperbacks are sold
Place my backbone in it with my heart to hold
I work the zero with the ten in front, so what you want?
How much of it and where, I'll bring it to you fair
My brothers throughout Tab (?) call me Fly Care (?)
Pretty babies call me baby come here
You get on the choke, as if throat was filled with strep
While I inject the mic with rep
It ain't nothin but the step to take, never bringin it fake
Got the frontier wantin chicken heads with steaks
I paint this whole scene magnificent, magnanimous
Distort the mental court, like cannibus
For those who want the play, bring the pay
While I be rippin rhymes at the dock or the bay
Push it back on the fader (nah turn it up kid!)
While the beats stay bangin, directly engineered (damn!)

We in the bush of Nigeria (we just keep on rockin)
Diggin the dirt in Atlanta (we just keep on rockin)
Smokin that what in Amsterdam, just me and my man
While we duck in Dantana (?)

Now we in the middle of Queens (we just keep on rockin)
Jumpin like Mexican beans (we just keep on rockin)
Peace to my folks in Iraq, we sew the whole map
And stitch the inseams (we just keep on rockin)

Word up (we just keep on rockin)
International style (we just keep on rockin)
Takin it from the US to the UK with my man Ease
You know how we do it please oh please (we just keep on rockin)

Tai-uli (?) on the board (we just keep on rockin)
Cornego (?) in the crib-o (we just keep on rockin)
Wonderwhy in the area
I.C.L. posse in the place to be (we just keep on rockin)

You know how we do
De La, Mr. Maceo
We just keepin on rockin (x3)

Brick wall way, six feet tall way, you know how we do
Peace

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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/
