Luv(sic) Part 3 Lyrics

[Refrain: Shing02]
We can take it all back to the register
And start all over from the canister

Let's save it all up for an ultimate prize
Homecoming gathering with a big surprise
Throw on your favorite record that's good to go
On the analog table and it's hooked to blow
Sit back with ease and hear the emcee flow

Hi-hat, kick drum all the highs and lows

[Chorus: Shing02]
It's funny how the music put times in perspective
Add a soundtrack to your life and perfect it

Whenever you are feeling blue keep walking and we can get far (Yeah)
Wherever you are

It's funny how the music put times in perspective
Add a soundtrack to your life and perfect it

Whenever you are feeling blue keep walking and we can get far
Wherever you are


[Verse 3: Shing02]
Um, third time's the charm, hopefully
When I chime on your door you'd still let me in
After all these years
The room that you caved in my heart is exactly the same as you left it

I realize that you have moved on
New styles and cliques like them silent flicks

I'm speechless in this golden occasion
The beautiful expression on the silver creation
This time I'd like to keep in touch
I'm a little bit wiser, a whole lot tougher
If I suffer through another nightmare tonight
We'll chalk it up as another chapter to write, all right?
Or wrong or somewhere down the middle of the road

I wanna see you again in a scene with the backdrop a perfect ten
And the music can take us back to the spot right then
From black and white to a sepia tone
Some dreams come with a tint or in monochrome
From black and white to my skin tone
Some dreams have a stint on the microphone

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Nujabes say about "Luv(sic) Part 3"?
Genius Answer

Directly from the notebook, shing02 had this to say about the song:

It seemed as if we had struck a chord with Part 2, and Nujabes would mention working on the next installment. I was mostly in Oakland at the time, so we would exchange emails. When I received the next instrumental for Part 3, I just wanted to speak about the power of music, and the fact that we need to go back to our roots to discover it. DJ A-1 (currently SPIN MASTER A-1) recorded the scratches at my studio using odd records that I have a healthy collection of, and we knocked it out pretty quickly.

I structured the song so that the second verse would mirror the first (a technique I used previously used for a song called “Pearl Harbor”), and the third verse would round it out. At this time, Nujabes decided to include Part 3 on CD (“Modal Soul”) and postponed plans to press the single, and he left the third verse out. Although he mentioned that the full version will be on the 12", it didn’t materialize then. My friend’s blog leaked the full version and Nujabes was none too pleased. However, I would convince him that there were many fans worldwide who are fully behind the series concept, and that we shouldn’t deprive them from content. In the end he folded, and that was an example of us working out our differences.
