Told You So is the first song I wrote after making the decision to write a new record and the emotions I felt leading up to recording it.

lyrics

I was so scared when I sat down to write this song
Words that escaped me returned after oh so long
Now I know all the things that I need to do and say
For you
All those plans and dreams
For you
Turned to distant screams
To you
All I have to say
To you
Is "Told You So"

All the distractions of past should be pushed aside
Dwelled on them too much, accomplished to kill my pride
Take back regret to see all that I've done is right
For you
All those plans and dreams
For you
Turned to distant stings
To you
All I have to say
To you
Is "Told You So"

Wearin' my heart on my sleeve to be judged alone
Write up the pieces of life to be etched in stone
Strength in my security would be much too strong
For you
All those plans and dreams
For you
Turned to distant stings
To you
All I have to say
To you
Is "Told You So"

Sit Down, Man
by Das Racist

They are at best laid-back and nonsensical at times but incorporate many genres of hip-hop. Some of their songs are more serious and poke fun at the cliches found in ever day life. Courageous Rue
