when i was a younger man
people say don't dream to tall
'cause if you live your life this way
you set yourself up for big falls
i stay up late in my room at night
play my heroes on my turntable
opened me to pure phat groove
help my soul break down them walls
i thank you
i thank you for all the music that you've shown to me
i thank you
' cause you set me free
free to simply just be me
you don't know
all the influence
the subtle positives
that you had on me
came about like a renaissance
like a little happy dance
got into my feet
but in your time
the roads you chose
led you to your hard luck blues
i always feared what it was like
to live inside your big old shoes
do ya love music? i do
do ya love music? i do
