Alive

Alive - TEKST PIOSENKI

So there I was walkin' down the street
Kinda surprised to be there 'cause...I don't know there's a lot a bad shit goin' on in the world
Rape and murder racism and starvation
And I'm feelin' like I'm doin' pretty good for myself ya know
I'm alive how's that 8x
Any way I was thinking about rap music in general and I feel bad
I mean where you gonna go after the Beverly Hillbillies rap hit it's peak in the 60's
I'm alive how's that 8x

Hey what do you want something profound in every verse
Jesus loves me this I know for the bible tells me so
I'm alive how's that 8x

I like to drink beer
I like to make love
I like to jam
I like to read Bukowski butt naked
I like intellectual conversation
I like to jump around like a maniac
I like to sit very still
Right
Son, she said,
have I got a little story for you
What you thought was your daddy was nothin' but a...
While you were sittin' home alone at age thirteen
Your real daddy was dyin', sorry you didn't see him, but I'm glad
we talked...

Oh I, oh, I'm still alive
Hey I, oh, I'm still alive
Hey I, oh, I'm still alive
Hey...oh...

Oh, she walks slowly, across a young man's room
She said I'm ready...for you
I can't remember anything to this very day
'Cept the look, the look...
Oh, you know where, now I can't see, I just stare...

I, I'm still alive
Hey I, but, I'm still alive
Hey I, boy, I'm still alive
Hey I, I'm still alive, yeah
Ooh yeah...yeah yeah yeah...oh...

Is something wrong, she said
Well of course there is
You're still alive, she said
Oh, and do I deserve to be
Is that the question
And if so...if so...who answers...who answers...

I, oh, I'm still alive
Hey I, oh, I'm still alive
Hey I, but, I'm still alive
Yeah I, ooh, I'm still alive
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
