About Pharsyde (feat. Joe Fox)
Rocky, amidst contemplations of his sex life, bank account and drug use throughout the album, returns to Harlem in ‘Pharsyde’. He reflects on the difficulty of growing up in the ghetto, his home, and the promising young lives that have been lost trying to escape those streets. The name is a reference to The Pharcyde. .
Pharsyde (feat. Joe Fox) Lyrics
[00:01.58] Love on the low, love everywhere I go
[00:07.72] And I can't face it all I need is right where I belong
[00:15.62] Love on the low, love everywhere I go
[00:22.38] And I can't face it all I need is right where I belong
[00:30.38] My ears are ringing, my palms are shaking, my heart is racing
[00:51.70] Somebody's mama's heart is aching, can't take it, partly fainted
[00:55.20] Found these body parts in awkward places, like apartments, basements
[00:58.66] Garbage vacant, lots, garages, spaces, Harlem's far too spacious
[01:02.43] Sometimes I wish I could get away and charter spaceships
[01:06.07] To get away from my inhuman race with hearts of Satans
[01:09.93] Took off my Mason Martin's, lay on back like Martha Mason
[01:13.65] Smoke away my eye and lung 'til later die at 71
[01:17.25] I lay down now
[01:22.08] This someone's [?] in the streets who gotta keep a, peace, peace
[01:26.47] I lay down now
[01:29.16] As I lay me down to sleep I pray to God I rest in peace
[01:32.77] I pray the Lord my soul to keep
[01:35.96] Gentrification split the nation that I once was raised in
[01:39.22] I don't recall no friendly neighbors face on my upraising
[01:43.31] Back in my younger days or razor blades with gangs who bang and never stood a chance
[01:48.15] Some boys don't dance, but left 'em Harlem shaking
[01:50.64] On the pavement
[01:51.88] And my generation fucked, and my society
[01:54.35] Very trippy pages in my diary
[01:57.29] It's the irony how LSD inspired me to reach the high in me
[02:01.72] Used to never give a damn now I don't give a fuck entirely
[02:06.08] I think my pride died in me, somewhere inside of me, it's gotta be
[02:11.43] A whole 'nother side of me
[02:13.78] If you seen the shit that I'd have seen in 26 years of living
[02:18.35] That's how many fucks I've given
[02:20.64] Love on the low, love everywhere I go
[02:31.47] And I can't face it all I need is right where I belong
[02:39.68] I lay down now
[02:43.25] This someone's [?] in the streets who gotta keep a, peace, peace
[02:47.76] I lay down now
[02:50.26] As I lay me down to sleep I pray to God I rest in peace
[02:54.25] I pray the Lord my soul to keep
[03:24.56] Love on the low, love everywhere I go
[03:30.92] And I can't face it all I need is right where I belong
[03:38.29]
