I have something due tomorrow and we have to have lyrics to a song that tells stories. Any ideas? It can have cuss words but not too many...

Mainly mainstream, unless you think there's an underground song that's really good.

Stories are usually like sad songs, inspirational songs, love songs, etc.

[H K]

Dead and Gone by T.I. with Timberlake could be considered a story.

[TheKGBIsAfterYou]

Chino XL - Skin
Chino XL - Rise
Big Pun - Punish Me

There's more, but I can't think of them ATM.

[TheRisingShadow]

Damn, I hate that song...but good suggestion. Any others?

[TragikRhymes]

Usually anything Slick Rick is good.

Erykah Badu feat. Common- Love of My Life?

Common- The People

Eminem- Stan (I think that's the name, don't listen to him much lol)

Rakim- The 18th Letter

Tupac- Changes, Brenda's Got A Baby, Keep Ya Head Up, Life Goes On

Stuff like that; hope it help mane.

[TheRisingShadow]

I found one. The Way I Am by Eminem.

Good pick?

EDIT: Whoa, lots of cusses.

It was a good song too.

[TragikRhymes]

Yeah I heard that. I think it's a cool pick :yes:

LOL I see your edit. I was gonna ask if you was sure it was okay, but I thought you knew what you was gettin' yourself into.

Okay now I got Lose Yourself - Eminem.

Not much cusses(only the word hoes)

[MC Coemgen]

Sleeping Beauty by Tech N9ne

...Just kidding, although it doesn't cuss much (minus the intro to the song) its pretty inappropriate.

Lupe Fiasco- The Instrumental, He Say She Say, The Cool.

Tonedeff- Porcelain (I personally love this ******* song).

I'm pretty sure none of those songs curse.

[TragikRhymes]

Yeah the ****in' Instrumental!!!

[MC Coemgen]

The song might go over their heads though.

[TheRisingShadow]

I chose My Life - The Game (Feat. Lil Wayne)

Yeah keep hatin'

Its hard not to hate, you make it so easy.

You could also do Yesterday by Atmosphere. Or Walking Away by Brother Ali. Or Paradise by Eyedea & Abilities. Or Trilogy by Pharoahe Monch.

[TheKGBIsAfterYou]

**** THIS, do Children's Story by Slick Rick

[MC Coemgen]

^^^Thats good. Or you can do Clean Again by MC Coemgen (myself). Peep the lyrics here (click) and I could give you the audio if you want to use it.

Shameless self promotion FTW!!!

[TragikRhymes]

LOL Agree with both above ^^^

[MC Coemgen]

So now you have to go with mine, or I will hunt you down.

[Roddy.]

They Don't Care About Us By Michael Jackson. jk jk jk.

What about Beautiful - Eminem? I think it's a story.

[MC Coemgen]

I vote against that song, I don't really like it. I mean, it was good that first few times I heard it, but then it grew old and I realized how not good it was.

[C. Rich]

Im surprised no one has said Dance With The Devil by Immortal Technique.
My Life by The Game isnt a story.

The Vapors by Biz Markie is iight.

Uhh...and You could use The Cool by Lupe. The whole album is a story.

The Only Real ***** Still Alive by Nas.

Think I'm Crazy by Chamillionaire.
I Think I Love You by Chamillionaire.

Don't Need Your Love by The Game.

Talkin in my Sleep by eLZhi.

All I can think of now.

Well I mean, dude is 12 in like the 7th Grade. I don't think Dance With The Devil is something he should play/write about/do whatever the **** he has to do with that son.

[C. Rich]

I'd do it.

[Mizery Made]

I think "Brenda's Got A Baby" would've been a good choice. You know... if you didn't wanna do "Diamond Joe's/Slither," "Sleeping Beauty," "Cursed," "Real Killer," "Worst Enemy," "T9X" *Whistles* Haha. Though, yeah... I'm hella late on this anyway.

Sleeping Beauty isn't that much better than Dance With The Devil (inappropriate wise). I mean, Sleeping Beauty is about him basically kidnapping and drugging a girl so that when she turns 18 in a week he can have sex with her. Then when she turns 18 she stabs him in the juggler and he dies. Not really something to play for a 7th grade class.
