K'naan - Bang Bang Lyrics

K'naan - Bang Bang Lyrics

[Intro]

She shot me, she shot me,

Bang, bang… she shot me. (x3)

She shot me, she shot me,

Bang, bang. (Get out the way, yo)

[Verse 1]

Ahh… there she goes again,

The girl is Ethiopian.

In other words, she came through explodin’

In the podium, dynamite

Napoleon like sodium mixed with petroleum,

Slowly but surely, she was walking toward me

Cut the convo short ‘cause she had to wake up early,

But continuing the story,

Don’t worry she gave me digits for her Blackberry

“You’re very handsome” is what she said.

And the way she looked in my eyes said “Put me to bed.”

[Pre-chorus]

Oh my, oh my, I should have known when she said to me on the phone:

“You do not know me very well, but I would never hurt a fly.”

Then she aimed at my chest with love in her eye.

I said she aimed at my chest with love in her eye.

[Chorus]

She was walkin’ around with a loaded shotgun

Ready to fire me a hot one.

It went bang, bang, bang…

Straight through my heart. (Straight through my heart)

Although I could have walked away,

I stood my ground and let her spray.

She shot me, she shot me

Bang ,bang… she shot me (x3)

She shot me, she shot me

Bang, bang.

[Verse 2]

Scorpion,

She’s so hot she’s a scorch-ian,

Killing me softly,

Lauryn or Kevorkian,

Couldn’t tell if she’s coo-coo or corky, when

I asked her her name she said “Call me Ten.”

Testing, testing

Things just got more interesting

She’s dressed in a vest pin, double-breasted holster,

A very Western toaster,

She ain’t nothing Kosher.

Ah… she lets me closer.

Hotter than a pepper-crusted Samosa

While I try to keep my composure.

[Chorus]

She was walkin’ around with a loaded shotgun

Ready to fire me a hot one.

It went bang, bang, bang…

Straight through my heart. (Straight through my heart)

Although I could have walked away,

I stood my ground and let her spray.

She shot me, she shot me

Bang ,bang… she shot me (x3)

She shot me, she shot me

Bang, bang.

[Bridge]

Am I wrong?

But what is love without the pain to go along?

And what is pain if not the reason for me to sing this song?

And this song is for the weak and for the strong.

Cause I was strong and still…

She got me, she got me,

Bang, bang… she got me.

She got me, she got me,

Bang, bang.

[Chorus]

She was walkin’ around with a loaded shotgun

Ready to fire me a hot one.

It went bang, bang, bang…

Straight through my heart. (Straight through my heart)

Although I could have walked away,

I stood my ground and let her spray.

She shot me, she shot me

Bang ,bang… she shot me (x3)

She shot me, she shot me

Bang, bang.

K'naan - Waving Flag Lyrics

K'naan - Waving Flag Lyrics

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

Born to a throne, stronger than Rome

But Violent prone, poor people zone

But it’s my home, all I have known

Where I got grown, streets we would roam

But out of the darkness, I came the farthest

Among the hardest survival

Learn from these streets, it can be bleak

Except no defeat, surrender retreat

So we struggling, fighting to eat and

We wondering when we’ll be free

So we patiently wait, for that fateful day

It’s not far away, so for now we say

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

So many wars, settling scores

Bringing us promises, leaving us poor

I heard them say, love is the way

Love is the answer, that’s what they say,

But look how they treat us, make us believers

We fight their battles, then they deceive us

Try to control us, they couldn’t hold us

Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers

But we struggling, fighting to eat

And we wondering, when we’ll be free

So we patiently wait, for that faithful day

It’s not far away, but for now we say

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)

And everybody will be singing it

(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)

And you and I will be singing it

(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)

And we all will be singing it

(Ohhh Ohh Ohh Ohh)

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

When I get older, when I get older

I will be stronger, just like a Waving Flag

Just like a Waving Flag, just like a Waving flag

Flag, flag, Just like a Waving Flag.

K'naan - Wavin' Flag Lyrics Feat Will.I.Am & David Guetta

K'naan - Wavin' Flag Lyrics Feat Will.I.Am & David Guetta

[All]
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a wavin flag

[K'naan]
Born from a throne
Older than Rome
But violent prone
Poor people zone

[Nelly Furtado]
But it's my home
All I have known

[Sam Roberts]
Where I got grown
but now its gone

[Avril Lavigne]
Out of the darkness
in came the carnage
threatening my very survival

[Pierre Bouvier of Simple Plan]
Fractured my streets
and broke all my dreams

[Tyler Connolly of Theory of a Deadman]
Feels like defeat to wretched retreat
[All]
So we strugglin'
[Kardinal Offishall]
Fighting to eat
[All]
And we wonderin'
[Kardinal Offishall]
If we'll be free
[Jully Black]
We cannot wait for some faithful day
it's too far away so right I'll say

[All - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
(And then it goes back x3)

Ahhho ahhho ahhho

[Lights]
So many wars, settling scores
[Deryck Whibley of Sum 41]
All that we've been through
and now there is more
[Serena Ryder]
I hear them say love is the way
[Jacob Hoggard of Hedley]
Love is the answer that's what they say
[Emily Haines]
But were not just dreamers
of broken down grievers
[Hawsley Workman]
Our hand will reach us
and we will not teeter
[Drake]
This can't control us
no it can't hold us down
[Chin Injeti]
We gon pick it up even though we still struggling
[Pierre Lapointe]
Au nom de la survie (In the name of survival)
[all]
and we wondering
[Pierre Lapointe]
Battant pour nos vie (Fighting for our lives)

[All]
We patiently wait
for some other day
[Fefe Dobson and Esthero]
thats too far away so right now we say

[All - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
(And then it goes back x3)

[Drake - Rapping]
Uhh – well alright
How come when the media stops covering
and there's a little help from the government
we forget about the people still struggling
and assume that its really all love again, nahh
see we don't have to wait for things to break apart
if you weren't involved before it's never too late to start
you probably think that it's too far to even have to care
well take a look at where you live what if it happened there?
you have to know the urge to make a change lies within
and we can be the reason that we see the flag rise again

[Nikki Yanofsky & Drake]
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a wavin' flag
[15]
And then it goes back
[Justin Nozuka]
And then it goes back
[Nikki Yanofsky]
Then it goes back

[All - Chorus]
When I get older
I will be stronger
They'll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
(And then it goes back x3)

[Justin Bieber]
When I get older
When I get older
I will be stronger
just like a waving flag.

Keane - Stop For A Minute Lyrics Feat K'Naan

Keane - Stop For A Minute Lyrics Feat K'Naan

Some days, feels my soul has left my body

Feel I’m floating high above me
Like I’m looking down upon me

Start sinking, everytime I get to thinking
It’s easier to keep on moving
Never stop to let the truth in

Sometimes I feel like it’s all been done
Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one
Sometimes I wanna change everything I’ve ever done
Too tired to fight and yet too scared to run

And if I stop for a minute
I think about things I really don’t wanna know
And I’m the first to admit it
Without you I’m a liner stranded in an ice floe

I feel like I’m a thief who has no faith
Maybe more than by the grade
Of the drugs you took that day

Sinking in the pain he’s been inflicting
Yet he’s feeling like the victim
Just a horoscope’s to blame

Sometimes I feel like a little lost child
Sometimes I feel like the chosen one
Sometimes I wanna shout out ’til everything goes quiet
Sometimes I wonder why I was ever born

And if I stop for a minute
I think about things really I don’t wanna know
And I’m the first to admit it
Without you I’m child and so wherever you go
I will follow

(rap)
One… yeah…
And baby you are just beautiful from crown to your cuticles
You held down my two sons, you never frown when duty calls
You know me, I gave you more than you can handle
But you still keep a handle on it, even when I take something beautiful and vandal on it
No more females? Well how come my emails got notes on a scandal
It’s like Eve with the apple,
A priest in the chapel
Overcome by the devil’s tackle
I’m still shackling the bad til I know
I’m such a hassle every time I let my thoughts go
I get baffled so I hardly pause
I just crossed seas with these gnarly broads
Cos it hurts me just to see what I finally lost
So I guess I’m just a fiend
Consumed by the scene
The stage and the screens
Where it’s just me and Keane

And if I stop for a minute
I think about things I really don’t wanna know
So I guess I’m just a fiend
Consumed by the scene
And I’m the first to admit it
Without you I’m a liner stranded in an ice floe
The stage and the screens
Where it’s just me and Keane
