When I went walking by myself down the street
I had a little drifter girl come run up to me
She want a nickel from me or to get something free
To give it to me or wanna smoke all my trees
Then we start to talking and she want me to sing
I seen she had a guitar
So I played a few things
I played a doo wop song
A hip hop song
A punk rock song and then some raggamuffin
People start to dancing as we started to sing
I took a look in her eyes and I could see where she’s been
We’re all doing our thing, were spread too thin
Music lets us come up from the places we been
And we can rock a show
Whether we know or don’t know
Our first name or last
Or where we might call home
It’s real simple
Been doing it forever
The universal language, bringing us together
It don’t matter the weather
It don’t matter the pressure
It don’t matter the time
Cause it will always feel right
You hear me knocking, why cant I come in
I thought I’d be appreciated but I’m nothing to them
They all like a good song, but don’t think it’s a job
They look down on me, they wanna call me a slob
But I got the skills, got the passion, what u know bout that?
You lay around all day, like an old hat
Slave to the man, making nothing, now you’re broke and you’re proud of that?
Yeah, I’d rather take the unknown path
It don’t matter the weather
It don’t matter the pressure
It don’t matter the time
Cause it will always feel right
I gotta let you know, let you know how I feel
I gotta keep moving, I cant sit still
I’ll make the music my meal
When I play what I feel
Get me to a show you know the mic I might steal
I mean for real, I really cant stop it
I’m a microphone fiend and I cannot get off it
Don’t care if I profit
I’m still gonna rock shit
Get me in the pocket and you know I’ll hold the rhythm down
It don’t matter the weather It don’t matter the pressure It don’t matter the time Cause it will always feel right
