2. I DON'T WANT TO BE A STAR
I don't want to be a star
Just want my chevy and an old guitar
I don't want to be a star
I don't need the fat cigar
My friends wonder what is wrong with me
'Cause I don't get off on my fame
I got so much confusion now
Sometimes I don't even know my name
I don't want to be a star
Just want my chevy and an old guitar
I don't want to be a star
I don't need the fat cigar
Too many distractions run through my brain
So many girls they start to look the same
Too many options no time to choose
Too many clothes, too many shoes
I've had the world I've done it upside down
I played the part and I've been the clown
Now it's my time, it's a brand new day
To be myself in a different way
I don't want to be a star
Just want my chevy and an old guitar
I don't want to be a star
I don't need the fat cigar
I got to meet all the wonderful people
I drank with Dylan boy did we act a fool
I got to meet all the fabulous people
I got high with Jagger, it was really cool
I don't want to be a star
Just want my chevy and an old guitar
I don't want to be a star
I don't need the fat cigar
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never, hey
I say never no no

5. CALIFORNIA
I was converted to the other side
From the day I'd gotten there
I met a girl who took me on a ride
I was young I had no cares
When I moved to California
California
She played me records I had never heard
While we toked on purple hairs
Who, Zeppelin, Beatles
Kiss, The Rolling Stones
While we played guitars in air
When I moved to California
California
California
California love !
Venice Beach and P.O.P.
Station 26 was free
Jeff Ho and Horizons west
Dogtown Skates they were the best
Hang Ten, O.P. were the brands
Don't forget the two-tone Vans
I miss the Apple and my schoolyard boys
Nothing ever will compare
But now I skateboard
With my surfer girl
And we really are a pair
When I moved to California
California
California
California love !

7. WHERE ARE WE RUNNIN'?
Fast lane
High speed
On the grind
24/7
No time
Always runnin' here and there
Chasin' the money
So much jibber jabber's
Cloggin' up our soul

We need some time to clear our heads
Where are we runnin'
Keep on working til we're dead
Where are we runnin'
Oo wee oo wee oo
Where are we runnin' now
In style

Keep the skin tight
And the booty in the air
Don't stop the party
The road is paved but narrow

8. BAPTIZED
I don't want to look around
And be turned to stone
All my darkest days awoken
I'm looking for a new way
Can't make it on my own
Lead me to a place wide open
I need a love that takes me higher
So high I'm never coming down
I don't want to know emptiness
Take me down to the water
Wanna be baptized in your love
Far away from the loneliness
Take my heart and wash away the fear
Let me be baptized in your love
Everybody's going down
They end up all alone
Far too many words unspoken
I know I gotta be there
I'm ready to be shown
The path of righteousness unbroken
I need a love that takes me higher
So high I'm never coming down
I don't want to know emptiness
Take me down to the water
Wanna be baptized in your love
Far away from the loneliness
Take my heart and wash away the fear
Let me be baptized in your love
I would be a fool to let you go
With you I'm reborn
I'm no longer torn
Yeah
I refuse to lose my heart and soul
I have to be strong
I don't want to know emptiness
Take me down to the water
Wanna be baptized in your love
Far away from the loneliness
Take my heart and wash away the fear
Let me be baptized in your love
Baptized, baptized
Wanna be baptized in your love
I don't want to know emptiness
Take me down to the water
Wanna be baptized in your love (wanna be...)
Far away from the loneliness
Take my heart and wash away the fear
Wanna be baptized in your love
I don't want to know emptiness
Take me down to the water
Wanna be baptized in your love
Far away from the loneliness
Take my heart and wash away the fear
Wanna be baptized in your love
9. FLASH
The opportunity's takin' me over
I'm gonna put on a mask
I've got to be outrageous for my fans
I am not gonna waste this moment
Because these moments don't last
So tonight I will shake it and show my ass
Flash
Makes me feel good
Feel like a queen
And it gives me all the panache
That I want
That I need
And it'll all be over in a flash
Roll out the carpet give me some exposure
'Cause soon I'll be the past
But anyway I came here to tell you 'bout my plans
Well
Let's keep this moving while people still notice
'Cause my time's going fast
And when it's over, it's over
'Cause I've got no class
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Flash
Makes me feel good
Make me feel like a queen
And it gives me all the panache
That I want
And baby that I need
And it'll all be over in a flash
Flash
Makes me feel good
Make me feel like a queen
And it gives me all the panache
That I want
And baby that I need
And it'll all be over in a flash
Flash
Makes me feel good
Make me feel like a queen
And it gives me all the panache
That I want
And baby that I need
And it'll all be over in a flash
Flash
Makes me feel good
Make me feel like a queen
And it gives me all the panache
That I want
And baby that I need
And it'll all be over in a flash
10. WHAT DID I DO WITH MY LIFE?
Did I work on the battlefield?
Did I do what I thought was right?
Did I do all that I could do?
Did I put up a good fight?
Did I love all that I should?
To everyone in my sight?
What did I do with my life?
Did I exercise giving
And forgiveness with all my might?
Did I honor my freedom
And did I live in the light?
Did I cherish my moments?
Did I take a good enough bite?
What did I do with my life?
You can live any way you wanna
All you have to do is dance
Achieve anything you thought of
You just have to take the chance
You can fall in love with your life
'Cause that truly is romance
What did I do with my life?
Did I learn what I came to learn?
Did I listen with my heart?
Did I do what I came to do?
And how did I play the part?
Did I see all the beauty?
Because living is an art
What did I do with my life?
You can live any way you wanna
All you have to do is dance
Achieve anything you thought of
You just have to take the chance
Learn to love your life
'Cause that truly is romance
Oh what did I do with my life?
What did I do?
Say it again
What did I do
With my life?
Oh
What did I do?
What did I do?
With my life
What did I do?
What did I do?
11. STORM [WITH JAY-Z]
My life has taken me beyond the planets and the stars
And you're the only one that could take me this far
I'll be forever searching for your love
I walked away but I was wrong
You're the one that keeps me strong
You're the fire that keeps me warm
How will I get through this storm?
At night
I pray before I sleep in hope of finding you
I've opened up my heart, I want you to come through
I close my eyes, I'm searching for your love
Oh, I walked away but I was wrong
You're the one that keeps me strong
You're the fire that keeps me warm
How will I get through this storm?
Jay-z :
I got the bounce Lenny
Check me out
Brooklyn's bad boy back again
Feet hit the ground runnin' and my back's to the wind
Angels on my shoulders, head in the clouds
No, I'm not rappin', I'm just thinkin' real loud
My karma's my armor, my charm and wit
Is like a lethal bomb, I'm warm and shit
And I did bad for good but when you're trapped in the 'hood
You do worse for less, homie earth's a test
Only God can judge me
My heart ain't ugly
But the thoughts that I drop is heavy
Try budge me
Mama loved me, pop left me
Still the homies call me lucky lefty
I'm flashy and bentley
Deceptively smart
I make hustlin' heaven and pimpin' an art
Long as I know that I'm blessed
'Cause I'm loved in depth
I can walk through the water and not get wet
I'm that fresh
I walked away but I was wrong (I was wrong)
You're the one that keeps me strong (Keeps me strong)
You're the fire that keeps me warm (You're the fire that keeps me warm)
How will I get through this storm?
Jay-Z:
There you have it
Young hov
Lenny Kravitz
Not your average
Get your umbrella
It's raining macs and broads
All grace to God
I walked away but I was wrong (I walked away but I was wrong)
You're the one that keeps me strong (You're the one that keeps me strong)
You're the fire that keeps me warm (Keeps me warm)
How will I get through this storm? (Oh yeah yeah yeah)
12. THE OTHER SIDE
Where do I live
Where is my wife?
I am alone
What's life worth living for?
Where am I going and what am I looking towards?
Where are my kids having their fights?
Calling my name so I can kiss their sores
I'm just a man on the run
It's a fucking bore
So father can you tell me again
Father can you tell me again
That I'm livin'
'Til I meet you on that day
On the other side
I'm internationally known
With platinum and gold
I've got millions sold
But after the party, I'm left standing in the cold
I would like to be a simple man
I'd buy me a farm and live off the land
Could a wife and some children be better than being in band?
So father can you tell me again
Father can you tell me again that I'm livin'
'Til I meet you on that day on the other side
On the other side
So father can you tell me again
Father can you tell me again that I'm livin'
'Til I meet you on that day on the other side
On the other side
13. DESTINY
Sometimes I think I've lost my mind
I thought I left my past behind
I live my life and all I know is
Follow your dream and don't let go
No one can live for me
No one can see the things I see
I walk this road
No one can tell me how to be
It's my destiny
There is no right, there is no wrong
There is no place where I belong
I've done my time
I've held it strong and
My life is all about this song
No one can live for me
No one can see the things I see
I walk this road
No one can tell me how to be
It's my destiny
If I threw them all away
Would it change?
No
I would live my life again, rearranged
There's a magic in my heart
That I feel
Don't you know that God is love
And it's real
No one can live for me
No one can see the things I see
I walk this road
No one can tell me how to be
It's my destiny
My destiny
My destiny
My destiny
It's my destiny
