highway 7 Lyrics

Nah nah nah...hey...hey...I was down to my very last song
Didn't even know which way to go
Couldn't believe that this was happening
I said, "God please don't put me back"
I didn't even see there was blood on my tracks
I was still compromisingAnd then the rain came and the sun went down below
And the city arose from the water it was all for show
And I realized what was happening
I had to pay the toll
It's true that you lose your mind when you can't controlBut I was a fool to think I could play this game with you
Cause I was born to walk this higher road forever
There's no understanding all the things that people do
Cause when this higher road comes down, we'll be born together
Said when this higher road comes down, we'll be both foreverYeah I was down to my very last friend
I was on highway Kevin again
Tell me why it's so hard to stay
In your place in the arms of who you want
Seems I got too close to the sun

I was burning burning burning burningAnd then the rain came and the sun went down below
And the city arose from the water and the water flowed
And I realized what was happening
You have to pay the toll
True that you gain your soul
When you lose controlFool to think that I could play this game with you
Cause I was born to walk this higher road forever
See there's no understanding all the things that people do
But when this higher road comes down, we'll be born together
Said when this higher road comes down, we'll be both foreverHey at night I toss and turn
Cause it seems I haven't learned
That the more that you fight and the more that you tried
That's the way that you're making the storm
Oh if I had my way
I would bring you back to stay
But you're gone and all I got is the crown that you wore
Is the crown that you wore
Is the crown that you wore
Is the crown that you wore
Is the crown that you wore
Is the crown that you wore
Is the crown that you wore
Is the crown that you woreHighway rose
Highway rose
Highway rose

K-os

k-os (born Kevin Brereton on February 20, 1972 in Toronto, Ontario) is a Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer of Trinidadian descent. His real name may also be cited as Kheaven, a spelling he adopted later.

The alias "k-os" is pronounced "chaos" and is an acronym for "Knowledge of Self," although in a later interview he also said that it stands for "Kheaven's Original Sound." His music incorporates a wide variety of music genres including but not limited to rap, funk, rock, and reggae. The lyrics frequently focus on promoting a "positive message" while at times expressing criticism of mainstream hip hop culture's obsession with money, fame and glorification of violence. A musician as well as a producer, k-os has written and produced a large portion of all four of his albums. k-os usually performs with a live band, something that is uncommon in the hip hop genre. He sometimes plays guitar and keyboard both during live performances and in the studio.

k-os received his first musical exposure with the single "Musical Essence," released in 1993. After the release of his second single "Rise Like The Sun" in 1996 he withdrew from the industry because he was dissatisfied with his musical style. He reappeared briefly in 1999 and released his debut album Exit in 2002. The album received positive reviews but sold relatively few copies. He released his second album Joyful Rebellion in 2004, which received platinum status in Canada. Joyful Rebellion received positive reviews, but at times was criticized for speaking extensively on the state of hip hop. k-os's third album, Atlantis: Hymns for Disco, was released in 2006, and his fourth album entitled Yes! was released in April of 2009.
