I, am, back on the scene
I'm takin it to the extremes
New blend, I've been schemin
Raw type stuff I know you've been fiendin

Waitin for, such a long time
for MC Lyte to drop another dope rhyme
Well I deliver as quick as you call my name
I'm beyond the hype, beyond the fame

So now, I prove to you
That I can shake you groove you and move you too
I am, too much to bear
to touch and then share

Once you've had one taste one touch one bite
All you want is M-see Lyte!
And I deliver as quick as you call my name
I'm beyond the hype, beyond the fame

[Chorus]
We've got to try to move beyond
I'm comin
We've got to try to break on through
To the extreme
We've got to try to move beyond
Beyond the hype
We've got to try to break on through!

Can't, you, see, I'm beyond the hype
And all that type of jazz and pizazz
I'm, into, reality
Forget the fantasy, this is me

Beyond the hype, so don't believe
what you read, cause they'll deceive
So now I come to you
telling no lies, the truth is in my eyes

Unlike the broadcasters on the news
who try to tell you, the donts and the do's
The media blows things out of proportion
The public's eye, proceed with caution

It's a dog eat dog world
but we'll be alright
All we gots to do is stick together
and move beyond the hype

[Chorus: x2]

You, must, trust when I say I'm here to stay
and believe I'll never leave
Haste, makes, waste
The track is all that, so pick up the pace

Forget the rumors, gossip, shit-talk
Besides that's old news, and that can walk
I'm beyond that, you are also
Release the negative vibe and let it go

So now, I come to you
Bearing gifts that certainly uplift
From coast to coast, Midwest I'm the most
but still, not on a high post

I'm comin, just call my name
Beyond the hype, beyond the fame
Down to Earth, I'm just that type
to take you and move beyond the hype

[Chorus: x2]

I'm comin' [Repeat: x3]
To the extreme
Beyond the hype
Beyond the hype...

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.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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/
