It Runs Through Me (feat. De La Soul)

One, two, three, four

I love the way it flows

I love the way it grows

There's something in this sound that takes me far

It's like a special song

Can move my mood along

But I cannot say you'll hear through my guitar

She told me, "Add a bass line"

And everything'll be alright

She told me that the groove is mine

It will take us through the night

And where I'll go

Can't explain, I'll never know

But it's beautiful

You can't take this away from me

The way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me

You can't take this away from me

Oh, the way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me

I love the way it sings

All the joy that it brings

Remember skating down the road towards the park?

I can never say no

You with that summer glow

The music gives me sun when winter starts

She told me, "Add a bass line"

And everything'll be alright

She told me that the beat is mine

It will rock us through the night

And where I go

Can't explain, I'll never know

But it's beautiful

You can't take this away from me

Oh, the way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me

You can't take this away from me

Oh, the way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me (Hey)

You can't take this away from me

The way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me (Come on, y'all)

You can't take this away from me

Oh, the way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me (Yeah, it's runnin' through me)

Yo, I wear notes like coats, blues like doos

Warmth in the rhythm, soul that glues

That bounce in my bones, jazz in my spine

The hop is my home, rap is my grind

I'm grindin' on the backside of life, we dance

She threw me a chance, her hands in my pants

Actually, my pockets, holdin' me tight

Whisperin' a dream I could hold in the night

Look tight, a rhythm that's throbbin' my vein

Wake up, then write it on the pad, the pains

Like church, the organ will invite the tears

Like birth, the cryin' lets you know I'm here

Held by the song that gave me a name

Dressed by the verse that gave me a claim

There's just bass in the line, safe to inhale

And if you live well

Be longer years in this state, you will be

A timeless octave to play for the tree

That's rooted in every single nerve in me

The nerve of he who ignores the key

The music that opens the mind to be free

Whenever you're hot-headed, pours you a breeze

Beneath the clouds you allowed to see

In clarity, through harmony

Someone harmin' me? That won't be done

I stand protected by the laws of fun

I am perfected through the rhymes I've run

Walk it this way and leave the party stunned

This music, it launched me with no aim

I've landed on some plane

Where I am, I can't explain

I'll never know, but it's beautiful, so

You can't take this away from me

Oh, the way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me (Come on, y'all)

You can't take this away from me

Oh, the way I hear the melody

The waves bring clarity

Runnin' through me
