I have listened to songs in which I heard words that I could not but think about.
Lines from songs that as ordinary as they sound, they hold much meaning.

Let's make a library of them so that others can draw inspiration from it and perhaps they will become quotes.

Here's a couple of my favorites. You can add yours.


"Human right na my property, so therefore you can't dash me my property" -- Fela Anikulapo Kuti (Beasts o
f no nations)

"I'm tryin not to do Wrong - But they wont let me do right. Even tho I done changed my life criminal records' what They judging me by." -- Akon
(trouble nobody)

"Dear Lord can you hear me, tell me what to say
to my unborn seed in, case I pass away Will my child get to feel love Or are we all just cursed to be street thugs? Cause bein black hurts" -- Tupac (letter to my unborn child)

"Remember, the music in the streets like the
streets, You know the cold of the streets, er'body tryin to eat" -- Wyclef (80 bars)

"They say music can alter moods and talk to you
Well can it load a gun up for you , and cock it too?" -- Eminem (sing for the moment)

"Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them." -- Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)
