I wanted to make something soulful and funky to RJ's amazing Beat 714...but hit a bit of a a dead end so I thought I would upload what I've managed so far and see if it inspires anyone else!

Papa said you'd be hanging round here

You'd been hanging round here

Waiting on me

Hating on me

Mama said you'd be trouble like a kid

You'd beg, steal, you'd borrow my heart

Break it, stamp it, tear it apart

I didn't want to believe

In other people's dreams of you

I didn't want to give in

In all I thought we could become

But time for dreaming's long gone

Oooo gotta know gotta know I'm passing by

Oooo gotta leave got break gotta make the other side

I remember those summer nights

Those long warm the nights

The night's you we lived in infamy yeah

I remember those fire spun days

All work no play, my body tight

With rage you vanish out of sight

Drown my head in liquored thoughts

On a whisky sea I'm lost and lonely

Fill my thoughts with ifs and onlys

And if my heart is just flesh and blood

Then the pain has surely got to stop

There's nothing left to break here

I didn't want to believe

In other people's dreams of you

I didn't want to give in

In all I thought we could become

But time for dreaming's long gone

Oooo gotta know gotta know I'm passing by

Oooo gotta leave got break gotta make the other side

I'm gonna learn to dance in the rain

No pain no gain

I'm ready to fight I'm ready to win

I'll pass you by I'm gonna fly

Cos this is my time

Rip it like a plaster

It's better if it's faster

It's gonna hurt, bite my lip

I'll pass you by I'm gonna win
