Eye of the Hurricane Lyrics


Eye Of The Hurricane
Sometimes I let it take me like a greased and vertical sled
I know the trick won't break me, it's all dancing in my head
People think that they can change most people it ain't true
It's easy to talk about change, ain't easy followin' through
Once it starts, it has to finish, once it rolls, it's gonna crash
You know it finds its limit, today's heroes tomorrow's trash
He never blinks, he never blinks, he doesn't care what you think
Cause there's an eye in my hurricane
There's an eye in my hurricane
There's something calm watching in the center of me
Cause there's an eye to my hurricane
People fly around me like dead leaves in high wind
They stream down the choking streets and never quite reach the end
Sometimes I wear a blue buzzsaw, I wear it like mohawk steel
Sometimes I ride my fatal flaw blindfolded, do it by feel
He never blinks, he never blinks, he doesn't care what you think

Cause there's an eye in my hurricane
There's an eye in my hurricane
There's something calm watching in the center of me
Cause there's an eye to my hurricane
Sometimes I wear a blue buzzsaw, I wear it like mohawk steel
Sometimes I ride my fatal flaw blindfolded, do it by feel
He never blinks, he never blinks, he doesn't care what you think
Cause there's an eye in my hurricane
There's an eye in my hurricane
There's something calm watching in the center of me
Cause there's an eye to my hurricane
There's an eye to my hurricane
There's an eye to my hurricane
There's an eye to my hurricane

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Around since 1990, New Flesh took ten years to release an LP but quickly became dons of the British rap scene, as original and cutting-edge as their much-hyped Big Dada labelmate Roots Manuva. When originally formed (as New Flesh for Old), the group included York native and graffiti sprayer Part 2 (aka Keith Hopewell) along with rappers Toastie Tailor (a native of Grenada), Horny Baker, and Out of Order. They did a few shows during the early '90s, and debuted with a 1995 single ("This Is the Space Age") on their own New Flesh Music. "Mesopotamia" followed a year later, and earned critical praise as well as a spot on DJ Vadim's Organised Sound compilation. Now consisting of Part 2 and Toastie Tailor plus newcomer Juice Aleem (a Birmingham native), the act started recording for Britain's Big Dada label with 1997's Electronic Bombardment EP. The full-length Equilibriums followed in 1999, while their second LP, 2002's Understanding, displayed their increased standing in the hip-hop community via a series of high-profile collaborations -- with Big Dada's own Roots Manuva and Ty, plus Blackalicious' Gift of Gab, Antipop's Beans, and hip-hop pioneer Rammellzee. A period of relative calm followed, although all three members were active, and Part 2 released a full LP of productions on assorted rappers and vocalists titled Live from the Breadline. The trio returned as New Flesh in mid-2006 with Universally Dirty, featuring their pioneering blend of bashment, dancehall, and old-school rap. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
