Old Man-Inspired by Neil Young

Old Man look at my life


I am a lot l like you were


Old man


You taught me to love with all my heart



Old man look at my life


I am a lot like you were


Old man


You taught me to love with all my heart



Basically


From my first day I was raised to be


Living life courageously


loving deep and sacredly


Hate to me


Was something that only came occassionally


When my hearts home for compassion had that vacancy


But it was just temporary delays and latency


Your love would shine down like


Sunrays on raisins be


We just some raisins in the sun


we can't wait to see


the world like a paradise where everyone is what they believe


and ain't afraid to be


Whoever they aim to be


Climb the highest mountain peak


and listen to the angels speak


I can hear it in the wind what you came to teach


or get the lesson from within


its the same to me


Sometimes you would bring a friend


or  a stranger meets


me at point of an ending when things complete


three hundred sixty degrees and the same repeats


we find love through the heardache and pain we seek



Old Man look at my life


I am a lot l like you were


Old man


You taught me to love with all my heart



Old man look at my life


I am a lot like you were


Old man


You taught me to love with all my heart



So I stay in the moment and patiently


Live my days in a daze and faithfully


Trust my self in the ways that you gave to me


Use my health through this maze and amazingly


I escape from within this rat race and see


The world for what it really is see its made for me


to succeed and proceed on blazing the


Trails that it takes to escape this masonry


and build from our own thoughts and the legacies


Respecting our ancestors, their remedies


to find peace of mind and balance our energies


So we could lift each other toward our destinies


To tell you the truth the rhymes not the recipe


I just have to find the time to go check and see


What my 3rd eyes designed and what's left for me


You taught me well old man may you rest in peace




Old Man look at my life


I am a lot l like you were


Old man


You taught me to love with all my heart



Old man look at my life


I am a lot like you were


Old man


You taught me to love with all my heart

7 Reasons why becoming a member of Beat365 rocks.

As you already might know I go by the alias Undakova (Undercover) and I am beat maker, DJ and MC here in NYC. I have been producing hip hop beats since the 90s and have produced my own hip hop instrumentals for my album created here in New York City. I often get asked by R & B artist and MCs "Can you produce some beats for my album?" One day the question popped up in my head "Where does an artist find great sounding Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them?" If an artist doesn't have a friend or business partner who is a producer or know how to/ want to produce beats on there own spare time (which can take a lot of time and money) where does he/she find a complete collection of hip hop beats? Well the answer is simple. . . . To find Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them go to Beats365...
