[Intro: *sample*]
"Rhythm"
[Verse 1: Loaded Lux]
I can still my nana's Sunday morning breakfast
Flintstones on the sheets, pajamas was the Jetsons
TV Guide or Jet then, Ebony and Essence
I'm just remembering my essence, you guessed it
As I'm digging through my memories I buried in my past I
Hope my peace of mind don't get beheaded on the path
I just wanted to be first, where everyone don't last
To give the world something that they never had, yeah
[Chorus: Loaded Lux]
I'm watching rockets falling outta love no
Parachutes, parachutes
I hope my records hit the airwaves like
Parachutes, parachutes
What if you wake up and it isn't there I wonder
Haven't you, haven't you?
Man the top gon' be a smooth ride down baby
Parachutes, parachutes
[Verse 2: Loaded Lux]
Musta been patience
Trust was taken, mental frustration
Gotta keep a smile on my face in these public places
My momma raised us, know ya' worth 'cause they'll underpay ya'
In these times I need mine though, still love my neighbor
Blood of a slave but, soul of a king
To hold a queen that's love and war baby I know the ring
The gold in me her only thing she wanna do is go and drink
In a Benz, wit' her friends, homie in the mink
Or was it leather weather they down for whatever's clever
You always smile king you good? Never better
Better yet my foot on they neck and they'll never get up
Shout out to all the girls that was down, kept my head up
X and O's catch a cold in that sexy getup
She like to pose for the shows, in all her pictures
Look I ain't out to get ya', not me baby I get ya'
Music ain't make me money, it was love from the listener, my nigga
[Chorus: Loaded Lux]
I'm watching rockets falling outta love no
Parachutes, parachutes
I hope my records hit the airwaves like
Parachutes, parachutes
What if you wake up and it isn't there I wonder
Haven't you, haven't you?
Man the top gon' be a smooth ride down baby
Parachutes, parachutes
[Verse 3: Loaded Lux]
And as the tide turns, in these tough times
Feels like there's so much I should learn, not enough time
She said you only showed you love, me sometimes
Then complain I ain't never there, when it comes time
The only hell I know is dying with regrets
All the money in the world ain't gon' buy you no respect
Niggas drinking liquor and getting high behind the stress
Cold world, hold on to every diamond you collect I could be dialing you collect my nigga
[Bridge: Loaded Lux]
No love for free
No love for free
No love for free
And when the wind blows, in the cold
No love for free
No love for free
No love for free
Polo's and Timbo's, in the road
No love for free
No love for free
No love for free
And all the independent women scream
No love for free
No love for free
No love for free
[Chorus: Loaded Lux]
I'm watching rockets falling outta love no
Parachutes, parachutes
I hope my records hit the airwaves like
Parachutes, parachutes
What if you wake up and it isn't there I wonder
Haven't you, haven't you?
Man the top gon' be a smooth ride down baby
Parachutes, parachutes
[Outro]
Parachutes, parachutes
