Playing in my head...

Modern Man's Hustle - Atmosphere
Who cares what Jane says? She always spits the same spit
I'd rather kill the radio and listen to the rain hit
Little sister needs seclusion somehow she'll discover it through the pop music
Got used to the feeling of falling, but you’ll never see her following
Bouncing back and forth between the healing and the hollering
Riding the outer ring of your own private Saturn
Thoughts scattered all across the grey matter

Little baby doll she doesn't know what to say to ya'll
The patience is short and of course the pride is way to tall

Break it all smash the past like it was made of glass
Aint no other way to make it last
It hurts to watch Lucy lose a dream
I've had the pleasure of seeing our hero kick and scream

And when she calms down I'll turn the sound down
And put my arms around the little lost and found and I'll tell her that..

I will show you all you need to know
You must hold on to anyone that wants you
And I will love you through the simple and the struggle
But girl, you got to understand the modern man must hustle

I will show you all you need to know
You must hold on to anyone that wants you
And I will love you through the simple and the struggle
But girl, you got to understand the modern man must hustle

Hush little lady don't say a word
Or the rest of the village gonna know you're disturbed
And if you let them know that you're vulnerable
Then there aint no stopping how far they open you slow
I'm a chapter in your the text book read me like a checkbook
Mistook love at first sight for a sex look


Enough of the blind man's bluff, I want the good stuff
Trying to hookup a full belly and a foot rub
The modern man's hustle I dig it, I shovel
Feed me your troubles and need me to cuddle
Bundle up in my mitten and coat
As cold as it gets I keep your winter afloat
So let the snow fall

She doesn't want to understand why I still come around
She look at the mirror she don't see what I see
She holds no history of how precious she be
Lay your head on my chest, speak of the stress
Kick your feet up and rest, before we clean up the nest
I hate to see you upset it cramps the position
And if you didn't know you better listen
Cause...

I will show you all you need to know
You must hold on to anyone that wants you
And I will love you through the simple and the struggle
But girl, you got to understand the modern man must hustle



I had this song it my head for the last couple of weeks... after I really listened to the lyrics, I cant help but play it over and over... makes me think about who I am now -- and who I want to evolve into. I know I am 0n a journey forward, but I know sometimes looking back is not a bad idea.

Just thought I'd throw that up... And hey what girl doesn't like this Atmosphere track. :)
