American Map - Rnb Soul Lyrics

Kicking it old school
With a fresh flavor so smooth
You get a taste of rnb soul
Kids that's an acronym
For rhythm and blues
Just so you know
Where it come from
Where it go
Listen and it will lead the way home
With only two chords
Not much on a musical score
It is how it is played
This stage of the game
Pain felt reflected
Either felt or inflected
From the sound of a drum
Or hearts beating in turn
Not much to discern
It's more of an insticnt
One that is learned
Time and again
Again and again
Since time has began
And it will never end
So play it again
Again and again
Until we forget the meaning
Have to learn it again

Rnb soul is the heartache reflected
Came from the pain both felt and inflected
A stake without claim yet we all grab the torch
Bear the cross that come with it
Like he who traded his soul
For not power but prowess
From that day lead the way
With the torch from the crossroads
With the torch from the crossroad

Five notes and six strings can mean anything
We all forget the meaning have to learn it again
Five notes and six strings can mean anything
We all forget the meaning have to learn it again

Rnb soul is the heartache reflected
Came from the pain both felt and inflected
We're all learning again
It's message cannot escape us
Hendrix to Pac
Pain that was dealt
More recent exemplars
Delivering message heartfelt
In American lore
You can be sure
Why you're still hearing from Jimi
And Tupac Shakur

Rnb soul is the heartache reflected
Came from the pain both felt and inflected
We're all learning again
Every day a new way
Blues is a ghost today
So many faces
Appearing in everything
Translucent and vague
Going by any number of
Generic names
Pop rock slip hop rap
Perfect harmonics
All of the tones
Most primal and sonic
Combined any way
Together they are the sound
The elemental fire we're all dancing around
