Lyrics:

It goes round and round again
Always round and round again
Take me high then down again
Will I be the same man by then end
Always round and round again

It’s like if I don’t even know what I even know about again
I lose myself sometimes and I'm lost again
But more money more money till I’m never running out again
Out again, out again
Life is long without a friend
So I get high I get high cuz I’m down again
Spill emotions and pride like a fountain pen
Cuz life goes round and round again
Always round and round again
Always round and round again
It goes round and round again

Lately I been walking into battle alone
Lately i've been talking to the man in the sky
Lately all I think about is going back home
I'm just trying to see my dad before the hour he dies
Thinking bout them days I used to sleep on the floor
Bun a couple zoobies with the moon in the night
Had a couple snakes in the crew at the time
Looking back I really wish I had a clue at the time

Lately I been talking to the man in the sky
Thinking bout it he might be as lonely as me
lately I been walking into battle alone
Tell them boy dem them they doh wah no battle with me
Lately I been talking to the man in clouds
Thank you for the blessing you make fall from the sky
All I sold was weed I never sold nothing else
Because I never do that shit to nobody’s child

It goes round and round again
Always round and round again
Take me high then down again
Will I be the same man by then end
Always round and round again x 2

But who am I, do or die
Cuz thing shit deeper than life, scuba dive
Man i'd hate to be the guys on the losing side
Everybody losing their mind and i'm losing mine
But who am I do or die
Cuz thing shit deeper than life scuba dive
Everybody losing their mind in their own asylum
All this pressure in my life turned me to a diamond.

The LOX: Tiny Desk Concert Hotney 6 Streams • 2 years ago

Bobby Carter | August 2, 2024
Experience with a live band is a prerequisite for most artists who want to play the Tiny Desk. The space isn’t kind to groups who aren’t locked in with each other and it will fully expose a lack of preparation. In the case of The LOX, chemistry has allowed the group to prevail in any environment. It’s the primary element of the trio’s longevity, so we all took a chance to build this performance from scratch. It took the audience a second to figure out what was happening, but the “woos” in tandem with the music affirmed everything. After 30 years in the game, we experienced The LOX, fresh and new again.

The trio of Jadakiss, Styles P, and Sheek Louch might not spring to mind when it comes to rappers who work with live bands. Established in Yonkers, N.Y., in the 1990s, the group specializes in gritty street anthems, usually best presented with two turntables and a microphone. The LOX utilized the typical tools of the trade three years ago to dominate The Diplomats and reinvigorate the rappers’ careers in their Verzuz battle. The band assembled here consists of Tiny Desk alumnus Carrtoons and Kiefer, Daru Jones on drums and vocalist Le’Asha. The arrangements added a level of sophistication never heard before from The LOX, and for the grand finale, they brought a string section — or “more band,” as Styles put it.
