four d' eight awaits ...
By Alex
Calm before the storm
is a vast understatement
of what I'm gonna do
of what you're gonna see ...
comin' outta me
the un-trapped energy ...
What's bin' misguided n' misdirected
mislead n' misread has bin' detected
n' now the focus is dead on
to what is right n' to what is wrong
do ya hear it comin' from inside a' my song ...
it was once too far away
so far far away ...
but it's back in a fury
I look around now ...
I'm no longer in a hurry
four d' eight awaits ...
had to wait 'till I was 48
to finally get it all straight
had to wait 'till I was 48
but they tell me it's never too late ...
four d' eight awaits ...
The quill does all the singin'
I do what I wanna do ...
breakin' through my soul
an undying need ... dying ...
to play some rock n' roll
The energy inside my soul
is all about rock n' roll
that's right baby ...
it's all about rock n' roll
it was once too far away
so far far away ...
but it's back in a fury
I look around now ...
I'm no longer in a hurry
four d' eight awaits ...
Had to wait 'till I was 48
to finally get it all straight
had to wait 'till I was 48
but they tell me it's never too late
to come cruisin' outta the gate ...
outta hell's gate at 48
outta the gates a' hell at 48
four d' eight awaits ...
The quill does all the singin'
I do what I wanna do
breakin' through my soul
an undying need ... dying ...
to play some rock n' roll
The energy inside my soul
is all about rock n' roll
that's right baby ...
it's all about rock n' roll
four d' eight awaits ...
cruisin' outta the gate at 48
outta hell's gate at 48
n' what's beyond that gate
there's jus' too much-I cannot relate ...
four d' eight awaits ...the wait's over
four d' eight awaits ... no more ...
the #'s add up ... to me ...
