Keep the Wolves Away - Uncle Lucius

Falling from high places Falling through lost spaces Now that we're lonely Now that there's nowhere to go Watching from both sides These clock towers burning up I lost my time here, oh I lost my patience with it all We lost faith In the arms of love Oh, where you been hiding lately? Where you been from hiding from the news? (Oh, hiding lately) (Hiding from the news) Oh, 'cause we've been fighting lately Oh, we've been fighting with the wolves (Oh, fighting lately) (Fighting with the wolves) Ooh, with the wolves Ooh, with the wolves Red tongues and hands Oh, falling from high places Falling through lost spaces Now that we're lonely Now that we're so far from home Watching from both sides These towers been tumbling down I've lost my mind here, oh I've lost my patience with the Lord Oh, with the Lord We lost faith In the arms of love Love, love, love, no Oh, where you been hiding lately? Where you been from hiding from the news? (Oh, hiding lately) (Hiding from the news) Oh, 'cause we've been fighting lately Oh, we've been fighting with the wolves (Oh, fighting lately) (Fighting with the wolves) Ooh, with the wolves Ooh, with the wolves Red tongues and hands Red tongues and hands We lost faith In the arms of love Oh, love, love, love (love, love, love) Oh, love, love, love (love, love, love) Love, love, love (love, love, love) Oh, love, love, love (love, love, love) Love, love, love (love, love, love) Oh, love, love, love (love, love, love) Love, love, love (love, love, love) Love, love (love, love) Love, love, love (love, love, love) Love, love, love (love, love, love) Love, love, love (love, love, love) Love, love, love (love, love, love)

Said, I'm pulling down the shades for the long ride I never knew that I could feel so black and blue And I've been holding onto something now for sometime And all I know is it's a feeling fit for two 'Cause when the sunlight laid its head down on this dark night And I was talking to myself in the rearview Yeah, I've got questions but I know everything is alright And all I have to do is just remember you 'Cause I'm never gonna lose you I've got you deep inside my chest And I can feel you beating like the soul of a drummer boy We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Let the law take us away We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah I've been fake and I've been free I've been you and I've been me But now I stand up tall for what I believe Against all odds, I walked that trail of fear And tread on desperate leaves But no one's leaving just yet We all want that make-believe Tried and true tribulations Of who I've come to be The less I know, the more I learn How much love means to me Every day I'm walking out the front door Leaning on your ghost The best feeling of the day is one that I lean toward most We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Let the law take us away We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah And I've been fake and I've been free I've been you and I've been me But now I stand up tall for what I believe Against all odds, I walked that trail of fear And tread on desperate leaves But no one's leaving just yet We all want that make-believe Tried and true tribulations Of who I've come to be The less I know, the more I learn How much love means to me Every day I'm walking out the front door Leaning on your ghost The best feeling of the day, one that I lean toward most We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Let the law take us away We've gotta keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Don't care what anybody say Oh, keep going Oh, keep going Oh, keep going Keep going away Oh no (keep going), keep going Oh no (keep going), keep going Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh no Nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Keep me clean, Keep me warm, Keep my soul away from harm, Keep the night, Keep the day, Keep the in-between away, Hold that second, Hold the time, Hold that picture in your mind, Hold the smoke, Hold the fire, Hold all that now you desire, hey! Show me trust, Show me love, Show me heaven up above, Show your soul, Show your mind, Show it to me all the time, hey!

I don't know what steps to take I do the easy ones until it helps Little acts of conversation I don't think I really like myself Am I comfortable in silence? Or is it eating me alive? Nothing's ever really quiet When you need distraction to survive It's part of me Wouldn't you believe it's nothing? It's all you need When you keep the rain from coming I'm already going under Nothing I can do but sit and wait Are you really having fun or Do you like becoming what you hate? Am I comfortable in silence Or am I waiting till it ends? Nothing's ever really quiet You were just too stubborn to pretend It's part of me Wouldn't you believe it's nothing? It's all you need When you keep the rain from coming I'm good at letting you go I'm good at letting it get to me I'm good at letting you go No, you were never the enemy

She asked could I keep the beat So here's the beat, everytime it pounds, you get weak Comfy, imbedded like a pillow, bouncin wit an echo My voice is moist, and plus mellow I got it going on, you're gonna wanna come Skins is the drum, (I) said I'm the drummer, give the drummer some And we'll see if you can hang wit Ra Hm, let's see if you can Shangri-La Easy ...like Tina Marie I play it slick Like Rick James, I'm the fire in your desire's flames; I heat up your temperature, keep the tempo raw When you start to smoke, rest assured I start to think 'cause you're a singer like Anita High pitched like a tweeter, deep beats start to beat her Much harder than love taps, my rap's above that I get girls where I want wit a maze full of lovetraps But I don't want to fall in love I stand in love, good balanced wit a plan to shove Accapella as we start to speak Heart to heart and cheek to cheek then I complete the beat (Chorus) Tempo's moving and I'm hoping it'll never fade away... The beat is grooving, words are soothing and please tell me that you're here To stay In the morning and I'm hoping the morning come again Hold me close and give me another dose and Keep the beat don't ever let it end She said, ah, so far, you didn't miss a beat yet Pop in another cassette, then I'm in to wreck I'll give you a beat you never had before, I had to explore and came up wit more Deep trunk kicks wit a brick for a drum stick You know the song, don't hum along, come quick You lay like Sade, it feels like paradise At the top of the pyramid, we review new heights The scenery of Egypt, you and me as we get So deep in the groove, when you move, you get seasick You seen enough, close your eyes and relax Move wit the tracks and stay tuned for the sax The instrumental, enters your mental. Tense but gentle and, sentimental, Accapella as we start to speak Heart to heart and cheek to cheek then I complete the beat Chorus She wanted the extended version So I kept splurging and add more words in; Strong: the emotion, notions move and The poetry's smoking, potions soothing, There goes the moon, I'm far from done, Rise like the sun, here comes the sun And I won't stop 'till it sets and then Rewind the cassettes and I'm a play it again; But this time it's instrumental at a faster tempo All I wanna hear is "Yea Rakim, Go"! I work overtime on your body and mind 'Cause I'm incline to do both combined My job is never done but done well Horizontal or parallel Accapella as we start to speak Heart to heart and cheek to cheek then I complete the beat Chorus
