Is there such a thing as Heavy Hip-Hop? ;o)
This is the band Cellar Dwellers! Well, it was. This band had it's Last Hurrah, oh about 1992. We had a hell of a good time!!!
Story behind the song
As usual, Shannon, Jake & Dave came up with the musical content, and Zelly put the words to it. This song is about her brother, who was shot to death while working at a convenience store...
Lyrics
Tic, Toc my clock, washin’ time away
Ending yet beginning another screwed-up day
Far outta reach, yet too close… take a little, make the most
Know what I mean? Prob’ly don’t… test of will; the battle won
Say goodbye, No No No… back & forth, to & fro
Still a story to be told, very young or very old…
Bombs away, we’re OK, still alive after yesterday
Sun’s out, getting stoned, trying to define home
Bold world, if it weren’t so small, no such thing as home at all
Love or hate or even lie, cause yesterday, maybe not
Heaven, hell, good or bad, what I have, maybe had
Who are you, hey who am I? Don’t just look with your eyes
Who’s here, who’s there? Who’s to say or even care?
