The fear and freedom went from revving up your engines to revive
The tears over tigers went from havin the moves to connive
The sweetest dreams went from bein happy to alive
The hatin went from that’s where it’s at to drive
The sinnin went from 7 hours and 15 days to 365
The inside and outside went from doin it for you to deprive
The lovin went from geeks off the street to hide
The comin and goin went from the usual waterfalls to dive
The dancin and singin went from Martha dontcha moan to strive
The jive talkin went from havin the flow to survive
and here we are…
