Post your favourite verse from a song you love be it from rock, metal, indie, rap, pop, RnB, whatever. I'll start;

I've seen my best friends cry
I've seen my best friends die
I've heard my best friends lie about how they doin' fine
I've had so many best friends in my time
How most of them I've lost to brown smoke and white lines
I ain't no stranger to drugs I've had my fair share
Had my head up in the clouds like fuckin' care bears
Chattin' all that rare tare tare I'm just experimentin'
MDMA, LSD, Amphetimentin
All the rest of that shit that goes with it
Why is it everyone that does drugs
Thinks that they know everything there is to know about life already
Just by sittin' on the settee doin' drugs in front of the telly thinkin they heavy
'Cause they live their lives like that, high on crack
What sort of fuckin' life is that?
Whatever happened to your dreams and aspirations blud?
Now the highlight of your day is masturbation blud.

Big lyrics! Share the ones you like the most :)
 
Yo, Yo, Yo
I feel like my life in is trouble
Glossy eyes off the lah*
Tryin to stride to survive the struggle
I can't sleep, yo the cut runs deep
Tryin to puzzle how to smuggle my fam like antiques
Been on the hottest corners in the bronx for weeks
Do I trust you?
Do you want this as bad as me?
Do I buss you? or let love become my tragedy?
Always swore before I dropped I was goin soar to the top
Everything I got I'm goin to bring it back to the block
Took a chance, stepped it up a notch in advance
Made the people dance
Now it's time to really enhance
All the horror
It's true you ain't even promise tomorrow
The bullet ripped through his starter,
He blew it don't even bother
My main man
Me and him had the same plans
Took the same chance
I wrote the rhymes while he weighed grams
Made me understand
See the world revolve in the palm of my hand

Hallelujah lyrics

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Mabye I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time
You let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
*And remember when I moved in you?
The holy dark was moving to
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah *

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a god above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
And it's not a cry you can hear at night,
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
 
Yo, they call me Nas, I'm not your legal type of fella
Moet drinkin, marijuana smokin street dweller
who's always on the corner, rollin up blessed
When I dress, it's never nuttin less than Guess
Cold be walkin with a bop and my hat turned back
Love committin sins and my friends sell crack
This nigga raps with a razor, keep it under my tongue
The school drop-out, never liked the shit from day one
cause life ain't shit but stress fake niggaz and crab stunts
So I guzzle my Hennesey while pullin on mad blunts
The brutalizer, crew de-sizer, accelerator
The type of nigga who be pissin in your elevator
Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game
Used to sport Bally's and Gazelle's with black frames
Now I'm into fat chains, sex and Tecs
Fly new chicKs and new kicks, Heine's and Beck's

Represent, represent!! [repeat 3X]

No doubt; see my, stacks are fat, this is what it's about
Before the BDP conflict with MC Shan
Around the time when Shante dissed the Real Roxxane
I used to wake up every mornin, see my crew on the block
Every day's a different plan that had us runnin from cops
If it wasn't hangin out in front of cocaine spots
We was at the candy factory, breakin the locks
Nowadays, I need the green in a flash just like the next man
Fuck a yard God, let me see a hundred grand
Could use a gun Son, but fuck bein the wanted man
but if I hit rock bottom then I'ma be the Son of Sam
Then call the crew to get live too
with Swoop, Hakim, my brother Jungle, Big Bo, cooks up the blow
Mike'll chop it, Mayo, you count the profit
My shit is on the streets, this way the Jakes'll never stop it
It's your brain on drugs, to all fly bitches and thugs
Nuff respect to the projects, I'm ghost, One Love

NaS- Represent
 
Pale angel go away come again some other day
The devil has my ear today I'll never hear a word you say
Promised I would find a little solace and some peace of mind
Whatever just as long as I don't feel so..
Desperate and ravenous
So weak and powerless......over you

A Perfect Circle - Weak And Powerless
 
All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down

Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again

CRAZY how he tells that story.
and i used to love H.E.R. - common.
i think that's what the title is, i could be wrong.
 
For What You Dream Of

when the taking on the giving starts to get too much
let the music hit you with its healing touch
last night just away
a mark in time
everybody must express their feeling sometimes
express their feelings sometimes

they say a tree
is as tall as its many branches
mm-hmm

but not all God's children
had the same chances

GET DOWN!

let the self be the need in life
don't you know that you can count on second chances
remember the future
and never look back
listen to the spirit while your body dances
you're loosing your mind but that's ok
you're locked in the groove...


the hall of dangers
the power in love
you walk the fire for what you dream of

...

you loosing your mind but that's ok
you're locked in the groove, throw the keys away
 
Got up early, found something�s missing
My only name
No one else sees, but I got stuck
And soon forever came
Stopped pushing on for just a second
Then nothing�s changed
Who am I this time, where's my name?
Guess it crept away

No one's calling for me at the door
And unpredictable won't bother anymore
And silently gets harder to ignore

Look straight ahead, there�s nothing left to see
What�s done is done, this life has got its hold on me
Just let it go, what now can never be

I forgot that I might see
So many beautiful things
I forgot that I might need
To find out what life could bring

Beautiful things

Take this happy ending away
It's all the same
God won't waste this simplicity
On possibility
Get me up, wake me up, dreams are filling
This trace of blame
Frozen still I thought I could stop
Now who's gonna wait?

No one's calling for me at the door
And unpredictable won't bother anymore
And silently gets harder to ignore

Look straight ahead, there�s nothing left to see
What�s done is done, this life has got its hold on me
Just let it go, what now can never be

So many beautiful things
So many beautiful things

Now what do I do?
Can I change my mind?
Did I think things through?
It was once my life
It was my life at one time

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
