No matter where you from, there's ghettos all over the place.

You Matter To Me
Look up, the sky is crying
Endless tears
Feels like my whole worlds dying
It hurts when youre not here
cause you matter to me and thats why
You still matter to me
And thats the only reason I need, to get by
You still matter to me, yes you do
I aint no good at talkin
So girl Im tellin you straight
My heart feels just like an orphan
I hope Im not too late
cause you matter to me and thats why (and thats why)
You still matter to me
And thats the only reason I need, to get by
You still matter to me, yes you do
If I could have just one wish
Id stand you in my place
Then youd know how much I miss you
Youll never be replaced
cause you matter to me and thats why (and thats why)
You still matter to me
And thats the only reason I need, to get by
You still matter to me, yes you do
You still matter to me
And thats the only reason I need, to get by
You still matter to me, yes you do
cause you matter to me, yes you do
And thats the only reason I need, to get by (get by)
cause you matter to me, aint no lie
And thats the only reason I need, to get by (get by)
cause you matter to me, yes you do
And thats the only reason I need, aint no lie

The Purpose In Life Is To Find Its Purpose
it does not matter
really who is at the top
the one who shines
like the sun
the best and most
useful
the most important
and even say
indispensable
like air
it does not really matter
to me
whether you are the
sun or the
moon
whether you are
king or
god
the place does not
matter
any name for the matter
does not
really matter to me
i am here because i
want a cure
and what matters most then
is
where is the cure?
or even just
that temporary relief
from these series of deaths
that we
are experiencing

No Matter What
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What they belive is true
No matter what they call us
How ever they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what i belive
I can't be what i'm not
I know i love forever
I know no matter what
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would here god say
No matter what they tell you
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach you
What you believe is true
And i will keep you safe and strong
And sheltered from the storm
No matter where it's barren
Our dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where the lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies aren't blue
No matter why they ended
My life began with you
I can't deny what i believe
I can't be what i'm not
I know this love forever
That's all that matter's now
No matter what
No

It Dont Matter
Now in your big flash motor and your wild reputation
Youre ready to hit the streets
Winking at the boys, yeah heading for the noise
Got the world at your feet
If leaving me for dead with a pistol at my head
Is your idea of how Id feel
Well let me tell you honey fore you spend all of your money
I got my hands firmly on the wheel
It dont matter
It dont matter
It dont matter to me
It dont matter
It dont matter
It dont matter to me
Back street lover in the cold of the evening
Takes you to a place he knows
Says, it will be fine better make up your mind
Youve cut it deep and now it shows
Its way past midnight and your traveling through the city
Youre wondering what you should do
Well baby cant you see that youve had enough of me
And Ive certainly had enough of you
It doesnt matter
It doesnt matter
It doesnt matter

No Matter
No matter what your resume might say
No matter your belief or to what GOD you pray
No matter the languages that you might speak
No matter the lessons that you might teach.
No matter the words that you might use
No matter your occupation or the work you do
No matter the schooling or the degrees you have
No matter the pot holes that's in your path.
No matter the places that you had lived
No matter the gifts that you did give
No matter your wealth whether your rich or poor
No matter if you speak quietly or speak with a roar.
No matter the clothes that you wear
No matter the color or the length of your hair
All that matters is your actions and your deeds
As they speak louder, and to them, man will heed.

No Matter How Handsome and Tall
No matter how Handsome and Tall -
No matter how more Beautiful than all-
No matter how Great-
No matter how Courageous and Strong -
No matter how Loving and Kind-
No matter how Good as Good can be-
No matter how much of All and Everything,
In every way and form
No matter who one is
And what one is
And how much they give
And how life is made better or more beautiful by them-
No matter how Big or how Small
Each one of us
In the end,
In one real sense,
Nothing at all.

It Does Not Matter #2
it does not matter- if you're getting old
it does not matter- if you're skin and bones
it does not matter-if you're old and gray
it does not matter-if you go or stay
it does not matter- what people say
it does not matter-living day to day
the only thing that matters, is that
you're alive today
and you'll fight whatever comes your way.
never give up on yourself
for you have no one else.
age is with us to contend
age is something that is not your friend.
it does not matter- if you had a good life
it does not matter- if you're contrite.
no one really knows the true life you've led
and if you deserve to be in a bed.
and if death is at your bedside
in' GOD' you must confide.
HE is the only one that knows what
you've been through.
so confession is what you have to do.
but! it does not matter
if you confess or not
for he has your graveplot.
so ask forgiveness for what you've done
to' GODS' only son.

Etymologicalness
The etymologicalness...
Of tracing linguistics,
To its earliest development.
Is like attempting to describe a moor,
As a negro.
Although brown and not black.
And describing caucasians as white.
Which is not quite right.
Manipulating language,
Is more of a need...
For those feeling jeopardized.
And feeding into insecurities.
Especially when the origin of speech,
Is never understood ebonically.
No matter who hip hops it,
On today's fast paced streets.
And whoever speaks,
No one listens anyway.
Since sex and homophobicness...
Is on everyone's mind.
And in everyone's way.
Innuendoed as it is!
With few words delivered...
To say what is conveyed.
They ain't and they is...
Defines for some the kind of life that is lived.
And many with this mindset,
Aren't urbanites confined to ghettos!

I Lie Around
I lie around
All over the place
It seems that I have no choice in the matter
Roll along wheel of fortune
As you roll along I stick around
Furthermore in the country
I will lay my burden down
I lie around
I lie around
I lie around
All over the place
All over the place
All over the place
All over the place
Too long have I been the heart of the matter
All along I was only over tired and overtaken
Furthermore in the country
I will lay my burden down
I lie around
I lie around
I lie around
All over the place
So long, bye bye, it was fun while it mattered
Roll along wheel of fortune
As you roll along I stick around
Furthermore in the country
I will lay my burden down
Yes, I lie around
All over the place
All over the place
All over the place
I lie around, around

Right Behind You (Mafia)
You you you you you)
You haven't seen the world outside for days.
You sleep,
You hope,
You wait.
Imagination disappears and all the dreams you have,
You save.
Confrontation like a mirror they try to take your mind away.
(Hey hey)
I don't know, but I believe in yesterday
And what it means to bleed
And know that you're okay.
(Are you waiting?)
No matter what you say,
No matter what you do,
No matter what I'm always right there behind you.
No matter what you say,
No matter what you do,
No matter what I'm always right there behind you.
(You you you you you)
Bombarded by the atmosphere
You breathe,
You choke,
You breathe, again.
Conversation disappears,
You realize they're not your friends.
The panic of the future rears.
You dig,
You jerk,
You find another way.
(Hey hey)
I don't know, but I believe in yesterday
And what it means to bleed
And know that you're okay.
(Are you waiting?)
No matter what you say,
No matter what you do,
No matter what I'm always right there behind you.
No matter what you say,
No matter what you do,
No matter what I'm always right there behind you.
You opened up my face,
No I dont feel the same. (no no no)
You opened up my brain,
But I wont be with haste. (no no no)
(X4)
No matter what you say,
No matter what you do,
No matter what I'm always right there behind you

It Doesn't Matter To Me
Well it don't matter to me what you say, what you say
And it don't matter to me what you're doing alright, alright.
Because I've heard it all so many times before
Just what you're saying and I don't really want to hear it all no more, no more
Don't wanna hear it no more
Cos there's no way that you can run
Cos I'm gonna find you
And there's nobody that you can turn to
cos I'll be behind you just to remind you
That it don't matter to me what you say, what you say
Well it din't matter to me what you're doing alright, alright
It seems to me it's been too easy for you for too long
So you'd better climb down before you fall and hurt your pride, your pride
You're gonna hurt your pride
Cos there' nowhere that you can run to
Cos I'm gonna find you
And there's no place that you can stay
Cos I'll be behind you just to remind you
Well it don't matter to me what you do
Well it don't matter to me, I'm talking to you, talking to you
Well it don't matter to me believe me
Well it don't matter to me

I admire certain priests and nuns who go off on their own and do God's work on their own, who help in the ghettos, but as far as the institution of the church is concerned, I think it is despicable.

Some Places
Some places you can fall in love with,
their scenery attract you,
the quiet and peacefulness of it all.
You feel so at home there,
some place where you could live
for eternity not matter
whether the sun shone or it rained.
You feel alive just being there
no matter what troubles come.
It makes you feel that you belong
and you never want to leave,
that this place is where
you want to call your home.

Mind Help
Place the message in your mind
And reveal it to the watchers around.
Place the obsession of the mind
In the honesty of the soul, ready to explode.
Place the vision of the eyes in your brain
Where gray and white matter is to train.
Your place in soceity is only ascertained
On the health of your body and mind.

As A Matter Of Fact
Written by s. garrett & d. boyette
Blow daddy, aww, yeah
Here we are, standing at the hard line
We made it last this long
The two of us, together since the first time
And I believe our love is still strong
Seems love has a funny way
Well, it can come or go or it can choose to stay
But love says what it has to say
(chorus)
Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)
I love you (oh, as a matter of fact)
And I love that you love me back
As a matter of fact (ooh, as a matter, a matter)
Some said we wouldnt make it this far
But they dont talk no more (no more)
The love we share is precious as a big star
And what we haves what others hope for
Seems love has a funny way
Well, it can come or go or it can choose to stay
But love says what it has to say
(chorus)
Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)
I need you (oh, as a matter of fact)
And Im glad that you need me back
As a matter of fact (ooh, as a matter, a matter)
Mm, matter of fact, yeah (ooh as a matter of fact)
I want you (yeah, as a matter of fact)
And I cant tell you more than that
As a matter of fact, (ooh, as a matter) yeah (matter)
Aww, blow, daddy
Musical interlude
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Seems love has a funny way
Well, it can come and go or it can choose to stay
But love says what it has to say

Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)
I love you (oh, as a matter of fact)
Yeah and I love that you love me back
As a matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)
Ooh, ooh, baby
Matter of fact (ooh, as a matter of fact)
I need you (yeah, as a matter of fact)
And Im glad that you need me right back
As a matter of fact
(ooh, as a matter) yeah (a matter)

Keep hiding
Where do you keep your self hiding?
It is not the matter for kidding
It is deep love that matters and counts
Heart longs for it and ear drum sounds
There is inner call for something special
There is definite urge, real and not artificial
There is no safe place to take secure refuge
The landscapes are rivers are open and very huge
It may not matter when it comes to reality
You trust more on your self with instinct and ability
It may long spell duration in night
But you are definitely assertive and right
As you think deeper and deeper
Nothing will be heard not even in whisper
You may be so much blind in your holy act
But that remains truth as matter of fact
The heavenly objects are there to bless
Your trail can be found or traced
There is no other place where you can hide
The conceptual difference is well known and very wide

It Really Doesnt Matter
I spent some time across the waves
I learned a lot of things I never could
I waved my magic wand over the past
I never understood
It really doesnt matter at all
It really doesnt matter at all
If you found what youre lookin for
It really doesnt matter at all
We strolled around on different ground
There must have been some kind of reason
Nothing ventured, nothing found
Must have been the wrong season
It really doesnt matter at all
It really doesnt matter at all
If you found what youre lookin for
It really doesnt matter at all
I flew you high, I flew you low
I flew you all the way around
You played for me your pretty tune
Now look what I have found
It really doesnt matter at all
It really doesnt matter at all
If you found what youre lookin for
It really doesnt matter at all
It really doesnt matter at all, doesnt matter at all
It really doesnt matter at all, doesnt matter at all
If you found what youre lookin for, doesnt matter at all
It really doesnt matter at all
