Prompt / Lyrics
So — do you — really know him? Yeah, I’ve known him since we were little kids, Running through the neighborhood, Waving at the neighbors, Cutting through the yards — those were the years. But I haven’t seen him in fifteen years. She told him, “You don’t want to be here.” She said again, “You don’t want to be here.” [Chorus – Background Vocals (M vibe)] (Soft, layered voices echoing behind the lead) Don’t — want — to be here (oooh yeah…) Something feels strange tonight (whoa-oh) Faces smile but the eyes don’t shine (mmm-hmm) Don’t — want — to be here (no no no) I can feel it in the air — Somebody’s hiding something right there... (“Hee-hee… shh…” echo fades into the verse) [Verse 1] You know this guy? — Naaa. Does anybody know this guy? — na na naoo, anybody? Okay, who brought him here? Come on, come on — ooooh, oh yeah, come talk with me. Dude, who is this person? He’s talking to a lot of my friends — You know all the fake smiles and handshakes, Acting like something real is going on. They see me standing right here, But act like they don’t want to hear from me. All I’m asking is simple — You don’t want to be here, do you? Don’t look like you belong here tonight. Nobody knows you, But somehow you seem to know everybody. [Chorus – Background Vocals] Don’t — want — to be here (oooh yeah…) Something feels strange tonight (whoa-oh) People whisper, they move just right (mmm-hmm) Don’t — want — to be here (no no no) I can feel it in the air — Somebody’s hiding something right there... [Verse 2] Where did you come from — me? Was I asleep when you came in? Did I miss something in the past? ’Cause I’m sure I haven’t seen you before — Not anywhere, not until now. Oo ooo oo — tell them all: We got protectors in this group. Everybody’s peaceful, laid-back, But a lot of things are happening behind smiles. We just need to know — who you are, Where you came from, And what you’re about. We don’t care what you drive — just be real. [Bridge / Shift] Man, hold up — y’all trippin’. That’s the twins’ cousin! You don’t remember him? Look again — look close. He’s probably just waiting on cuz to show up, So he can be introduced to the spot — to all of you. Alright then — everyone, Check the food and be sure the food doesn't, burn And enjoy yourself tonight. Drink up- alright o yeah I got people in the pool In the front lawn -uo In the back the fellas and ladies are gathering around for the barbecue - Making sure everyone’s chillin’ And on the list. Mike White Cloudwalker Mike White Cloudwalker welcome- back MikeWhite and Cuz majority of you know Oh yeah walk in- oooh come on. Oooh just needed to know [Final Chorus – Background Vocals Stronger] Don’t — want — to be here (ohhh no no…) Something still doesn feel right (mmm-yeah) Voices low, but the truth in sight (hee-hee, oh!) Don’t — want — to be here (oooh yeah…) But we’ll keep the peace tonight — Till the morning brings the light. *(Echo fades: “peace tonight… till the light… till the light…”) *
