Papa had a wife and kids he kept them on a leash and he bid them all to do his every deed
When he was a kid he was treated just the same so he hid his feelings from his family
Lost as an island out at sea, resistant to the gentle waves of empathy
Quote:
Papa and his family always on parade
Tearing through the turnstiles, a weekender's charade
But time will tell, as their world crumbles to hell
What they created was a family story no one will tell
It's a photo album too terrible
But the pride and the pallor continue to swell as the matron silently prays
Junior resented the tradition they upheld and it ate him up inside most every day
Silence was golden and they kept him to his word
So bewildered when he finally ran away
Oh, obligations never cease
Oblivious of the ways to give his soul some peace
*WARNING* Folk hip hop, don't listen if you don't care. Although I recommend it. Unless you don't want to. But I suggest it. Don't if you dont need to. But you should.

Rolling in the Deep is played way too much. I'm probably the only person on Earth who doesn't have a mad love for it.
Put me in the same boat. I wouldn't really call it "hip hop" though.
MrMastadon! I was totally gonna put "Through the Roof N' Underground" by Gogol Bordello, but Ive been listening to Cecil Otter much more lately. I drove to Fort Mac listening to all Gogol Bordello once. It was a good time.
