Let Me Go
Lonnie Youngblood And The So-Called Jimi Hendrix Tapes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Anytime you come around I feel alone
I don't need your help, can you tell from my tone?
Try to keep it casual, nothing there to break the fall

All this time I spend with you is not enough
Know you're sad inside so why you act so tough
Fed up with my usual quit it cold and feel the lull
Let it go, there's no lust now I'm way ahead of you
Can you hear me now? I'm on your radio
Can you pull me apart just the way you do?

Anytime I see your face it's just my own
I'll be fine, just look how much I've grown
How did you stay there I didn't play fair
You and I might be the only thing I know
Set aside a place for both of us to go
I feel your hand inside of mine
No, I don't never mind

Let it go, there's no lust now I'm way ahead of you
Can you hear me now? I'm on your radio
Can you pull me apart just the way you do?

Let it go, there's no lust now I'm way ahead of you
Can you hear me now? I'm on your radio
Can you pull me apart? I won't let it bring me down again

Let it go, there's no lust now I'm way ahead of you




Can you hear me now? I'm on your radio
Can you pull me apart? I won't let it bring me down again

like a Pegasus, and 27 being the most magic tragic majestic age to lose them, especially Jimi, Jimbo and Jim.... they grew wings and flew so high that space turned them to stardust and rained down into all of us, so appreciate yes; yet also create- relate, stand for something; let the lyrics and the feeling guide you through this madness, the insane maze we call civilization, and I'll see you there, brothers and sisters, we have worlds to shape, so ...work it, c'mon! I visit and borrow my brother's line... CorVus LuCem of The Nomads (not a musical or political group, we number 33 in region and Commanders, for humanity, extractions, leverage, influence of policy, we also feed the hungry. We are now merged with the original "Dirty Tree" by request, make a difference and always, -express.)

PSYCHOSIS   BY  OSMOSIS
 
So sane once the madman spoke.
                So mad now, my belief.

Psychosis by osmosis.
 This my worn and weary smile;
sits upon my face
like the Arctic oil slick;
sick by reflection…
                I have seen the greasing of the wheels
                                 with the blood of soldiers and slaves.

Nero looks back up at me               
   from the puddles on the walk.

Oh, where did I inherit these demon eyes?
Was it the dreaming or the horror?
The dreaming or the horror.

Perhaps my
nightmares wake up with me
and eyes and ice are one and the same;
as I see with my visions apart
                                  myself watching me…

                                                 Yes, I offered you a hole in the wall
                                                                                for your honor to escape through:
                                                Yet as the mad ones teach me all about             
self-serving insanity                                                                                                            do I become insane myself.
       Yes, I become insane myself.

       For all I am shown,                       
-should the martyrs tremble                                                   
with wasted feet on once-hallowed grounds;
    …and a tear of death let go from an eye of Enola Grey…

                             …and I am swimming in glass,                
  as the mirror reflects      something I once saw           
  - a horror      in the eyes of an angel.
No, the babies won’t drink
from the curdled maternal well.
Terra mama we have
betrayed the faith,
            and our saints do walk among us
                      on slippers of thorns,
                 with the future only
                   a sick reflection of ourselves;

                  psychosis by osmosis
-and the milk of
human kindness                   turns to blood.

I was 14 lived in my Grandfathers basement. All I had was one of those one speaker looked like a shoe box cassette player, it ate this tape, I was so bummed. After that I always had at least two backups. That was '73. This is the first time I found it since. Good times! Thanks for posting this!

Jimi hendrix is the greatest musician of all time. Hes the innovater of music in general. All of his albums were platinum. I dont care what anyone else thinks. Hes the best ever. I havent seen or talked to my wife in 40 days. The woman who I love more than anyone in my entire life...his music relaxes me and makes me so mellow and calm and makes me wanna live more and more. I love you james marshall hendrix. Your my inspiration. Remember why clapton was envious of you. Its because you felt it. He just wanted to make a career. You made people feel it..

I love Hendrix! Everything about him except that he’s gone. But, greatest musician ever? Prince Rodgers Nelson must certainly get votes.

@anxiousx

Legend said Lonnie's older brothers co managed him and hated Jimi so much because of his flashy stage antics and heavy use of volume. While traveling on the tour bus the older Youngbloods, their partner, the band's director and Lonnie voted to fire Hendrix. Lonnie casted the deciding vote and Jimi was seemingly spared but the oldest Youngblood walked to the back of the bus, snatched Hendrix's Fender Duo Sonic guitar and flung it out of one of the windows. Jimi shouted for the driver to stop which he did and Lonnie's brother told him to drive on when Hendrix got out to retrieve his guitar.

Gosh, That's rough behavior.
Besides, guitars cost good money.
