Píseň: Jimi Was A Rock Star

Interpret:
Common
Album:
Electric Circus
Everyone hides thier face,


Sets behind a mask they wear.
Jimi was a rock star


Searching for that magic place


That




He could touch


In the sky




Just to get his people high.




Ohhhhhhhhh (jack!)


Oh oh ohhhhhh


Oh oh




Oh oh
Ohhhhhhhhh (jack!)(repeat)






Verse 2:






Life is so, colorful


Reds, blues and dreams.




Jimi lives in a purple haze,
In a psychadelic maze.


Playing the streets like and instrument:


Pulling strings wherever he went.


Angel sent




From the sky
Just to get his people high.






Ohhhhhhhhhh (jack!)


Ohhhhhhh


Oh oh


Oh oh


Ohhhhhhhh (jack!)(repeat)






Women all around (ehh da da daaa da)
Fast cars and sound (ehh da da daaa da)




And freedom he was bound (ehh da da daaa da)


Couldn't see the ground (ehh da da daaa da)






Jimi come out why don't you set me free?!


(set me free)






Sooooo high
Born to fly






Getting high off his own supply
?


Everybody follows the same lord


Using his light to guide the way




?
?...try things but few die so young


Something among


Jimi was stung






Everyone


Hides thier face


Sets behind a mask they wear


(back ground: Jimi come out why don't you set me free?)Till end
