[HOOK]
Goapele: "flow" (x8)

[Grouch]
Straight foward puncher man, I got to get through to you
Mix what I do with Zion I is special, and you knew it too
Time for your mind expansion, and we on the grind
Answerin the question to where the hell am I gonna find bliss
My souls music is timeless
Keep it close to your heart, it's art at its finest
A pint is not enough liquid courage to go around
So when I draw from this universe, I put it into the sound
Would have been lost, but found myself in the process
Of gettin up over and over and dealin with God's test
You're best to beleive my quest to releive pain
it still remains
But frame by frame we make the sickest scene
The most equipped of teams, tower with tall torches
Only the weak-hearted wilt like cowards with no voices
Of course the choice is yours, pick the lock to open doors
Get the crop & go for more because it's pure and
Wherever the wind blows, me and my trusted pen go
And at the drop of a ten cent coin, I let these men know
Get past the windows, the walls, and the fences
Let down your guards and come to your senses
Let it flow..

[HOOK]
Goapele: "flow" (x8)

[ZionI]
I sit back, relax and vocalize my free-dom
cause some tale of emotion locks inside of me
I play the lottery of life, run the rule of roulette
pullin the card but it's hard not to sweat, place ya bets
you ain't a gambler? well circuit, Imma handle ya low
I got some tools for the small to grow, uh-ayyo
I let it flow, I bring it lower than the cold
an my ebony soul turnin to diamond cause I'm dying to know
what is the process? we droppin this
genesis apocolypse, the opposites
you can't have light without the dark-ness
we're Spartacus, Musab, Django, and Orion
I'm before yesterday and tomorrow I'm magnifyin'
I'm the lost hope, the love we be scared of
the child in the big green field who wants a hug
I'm a natural, black classical, thoughts generate
pressure build, always cut the skill with some heat
my vertigo halo, sometime you shouldn't say no
we clean out the stuff to see, spit the Draino, let's go...
eh, eh, eh - let's flow...

[HOOK]
Goapele: "flow" (x8)

[Grouch]
I seen sideway days with a slight gray haze when the right ways, they don't pay
But they build personality and character, originality will carry ya like a chariot, any area
While others stare and laugh, me I'm just preparin that
Passion pent to the point where one can only dare to act natural in my prescense cuz we're all of the earth's essence
Bring it out from the root, sing it out like some true feelings
Uninhibited from the ceiling to the floor
And beyond what man's made, cuz I stand for so much more
And I plan for that, though, but can't demand for that so
When I don't know, I let the wind blow

[ZionI]
I spend my days in a limbo where the sun is a temple
an' we all walk around laughin' indo
it's like a maze what I been through
though it all seemed so simple
hindsight, 20/20, yet it's hard to continue
now when the style ain't really versatile
an you get caught up lookin out the window
I mean, don't be watchin' me when you got someplace to be
suckin' nipple
blank ya own reign cripple...so let it flow

[HOOK]
Goapele: "flow" (x8)

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,

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
