Any Port Lyrics

(Intro)

 [Sage Francis]

 Uh-uh-uh

 Ha, Ha, Ha!

 

 (Chorus)

 [Sage Francis]

 You ain't been where I've been

 And I don't pretend to know where you come from, Jack

 But most likely, I've been there, Mmm-Hmm

 And, I've done that, Mmm-Hmm

 You ain't been where I've been

 And I don't pretend to know where you come from, Jack

 But most likely, I've been there, and done that

 And if your lucky enough (lucky enough), I'll come back

 

 (Verse 1)

 [Sage Francis]

 Back from hell again, a sack of skeleton

 Corroded bones, and a saggy bag of flesh and skin

 Head of medicine, hands of labour pains

 A sexy grin on the man with a face that strains

 A change of eating habits, (who did you back)

 Like a love needs its magic, a drug needs its addict, (a crack)

 In the coded language, askin for open statements

 A plastic mask and a nose with reloaded fragrances

 A sense of when a situation stinks

 It keeps me and my relationships indifferent

 In the same way

 The only thing that changes is the blood stains on the razor blade

 (My rain doesn't stop), 'til all you got is flooded gardens

 When the president runs out of excuses, hes sure to make a couple pardons

 (Where I'm from), you can't run from your problems

 (When my time comes), it had better wear a studded condom

 indispensible pleasures with a price tag

 Forgetable treasures burried in the mind of my dad

 Erotic love is masturbation when lifes sad

 A product of the Last Temptation that Christ had

 (But don't get cross with me) unless youve come to touch my palms

 Just to get me up in alms

 Watch me part your Red Sea Legs, till they bleed when I force em open

 Searching for Any Port when I see the Storm Approching

 

 (Chorus)

 [Sage Francis]

 You ain't been where I've been

 And I don't pretend to know where you come from, Jack

 But most likely, I've been there, Mmm-Hmm

 And, I've done that, Mmm-Hmm

 You ain't been where I've been

 And I don't pretend to know where you come from, Jack

 But most likely, I've been there, and done that

 And if your lucky enough (lucky enough), I'll come back

 

 (Verse 2)

 [Sage Francis]

 Back to the grill again, (back with a vengance)

 A million men with expired sex packets of adolescence

 Back to the essence, (back to the grindstone)

 A world went through earthlings, a traveling cyclone

 Passing time zones, (stuffing my pocket of airlumes)

 A Sly Stallone Stunt Double with Rocky career moves

 Backin up to square one, (laughing when I hear some)

 DJ's who should start from scratch, flash their flare gun

 Rapping in my ear drum, (Emcees can't smile)

 Graff kids who gave daps with wack hand styles

 Goin back to the basic roots (Rappers in Asics suits)

 Master the breaks, produce classics, in A-List groups

 Back on the Vegas Group, Playing Blackjack

 So I can take this loot, back from the fat chicks in latex boots

 Back from (??) (stabbed in the abdominal)

 A lot of suckers like to say they were in Drama School

 They're in the game to rape the industry

 I'm here to get what should've been given to me

 In the first place, and then fake an injury

 For the sake of simplicity, (bringin it back)

 For the sake of complex theory, some are considering quitting rap

 Side saddle riding cowboys, we calling the motions of home life

 And then leading their horse through smoke rings

 A breed of cross-promotion, (I see that lost (??))

 Searching for Any Port when I see the Storm Approaching

 

 (Chorus)

 [Sage Francis]

 You ain't been where I've been

 And I don't pretend to know where you come from, Jack

 But most likely, I've been there, Mmm-Hmm

 And, I've done that, Mmm-Hmm

 You ain't been where I've been

 And I don't pretend to know where you come from, Jack

 But most likely, I've been there, and done that

 And if your lucky enough (lucky enough), I'll come back

 

 (Outro)
