Goodie Mob - Ghost Of Gloria Goodchild lyrics

[Verse 1: Cee-Lo Green] This song summons the spirit of a soul stolen away. Sad, but true And it works every time, but it hurts every time. But it's somethin' I had to do Gloria's from a small town where thinkin' out loud's against the law Then she realized she felt a whole lot better with her back against the wall (She said) "This fire inside me, how dare this place deprive me?" "I want this. I NEED this. I'm wounded and I bleed this" She was the real thing, a rebel soul; woulda died to be here tonight And she did, so I sing this to celebrate her life [Chorus: x2] Gloria, star down the power she stole [?] Gloria, I make you this promise that I I'll cry for you. No I will never Let your life be in vein. You're gonna live forever! [Verse 2: Big Gipp] A conversation quickly turned into confrontation No longer daddy's little girl, that was confirmation Stubborn like her mother was, her spirit was so free She ain't take no for an answer, he found that rather unique Her soul was meek, but she was a renegade for hip-hop Daddy called it devil music and said it had to stop Instead of the shots, she stole the keys and took the car and left I guess it was nice to know that I was loved to d**h [Chorus x2] [Verse 3: Khujo] Runnin' runnin' to get away Happened too fast to be afraid Time, time ain't on our side Heaven or hell, you decide Put your lighters in the air to show you really care Hold your neighbor's hands, close your eyes and say a prayer I feel it in the air, her presence everywhere We celebrate her spirit, I can hear the people cheer [Chorus x2]
