Street 62 Lyrics

Now who I am?
and what is relevant?
cause I’ll be searching for days for the way
just like a needle in a haystack
wild I’ll be taking my time observing this life
given the guides misgiven in strife
a mismatch of half ass equality
get cash and running up the mountains man as fas as I can
to break bread with the essence of life
good vibes like minds
sharing together one step at a time
and my fidelity allegiance and consistency
been running up the mountains just enough to cause reality
and make a difference?
no calls for superman
be absurd you’ll be lifting the world to break your back

but the obvious simplicity is hard to recognize you see
towers rising higher in perceptive of this lunacy
go a little bit up a little further now
you may be stressing until your found
and where this going my man?
topsy turvy hills and valleys
with this world without direction
making life an uphill battle
saddle up into the straddle
don’t you give up the fight
cause yo
so what’s the point to this life?

my mind is a racing on street 62
street lights are blinding
it’s a dreadful avenue
a dead end they say
its a dead end they say
but i keep walking keep moving
nothing better to do
keep talking
keep spitting words
i don’t want to say to you
keep walking keep moving
nothing better to do
walking talking
keep spitting words
i don’t want to say to you

Talking here talking loud
while this world is going round
man this world is going round?
mad making for the pound
but you figured it out?
then let me tell misconceptions coming round
to pull you back now
but you keep on learning
and you keep on striving
ain’t nobody gonna tell you where your heart is
for you to wrap around
take a minute take a minute for your mind
until you find

until you find?
the streets are dark now
but where your mind?
it’s getting deeper by the pound
city light a burning out
trying hard to find my way
need a friend to help me out
but brother check this out
im going down south
but north be better man
don’t worry ya’ll be seeing me again
need time to clean my head up
up into this land
here we go here we go again
I’m heading out

keep walking keep moving
nothing better to do
keep talking keep spitting words
keep walking keep moving
nothing better to do
cause if i keep talking keep spitting words
i don’t want to say to you
