Okay, I did my best. But I thought I would post this. . . And maybe together we could revise it and clean it up some. This is the best I could get.
This town splits right down the middle, There's rich and poor, black and white. Right down to the saints and the sinners and the ones who ______ This world is tough as a splinter, there's ones that flinch and ones that fight. Around here you can sure tell the difference between the rocks and the rolling types. I know I'm gonna stick with yeah, when the hard times hit. Somebody's gotta stand in the storm, In the lightening! When it poors! Be strong enough to lean on. Show you what backbone is for. Some bodies gotta stand in the storm. Some bodies gotta stand! Nobody likes a white flag quitter. Leaves you there, tucks and runs. Life is coming and it hits like a hammer. Kicks like a shotgun! I ain't out here looking for trouble. I'm no stranger to an uphill fight. You need a hand when it all starts slipping, you can bet I'm going to hold on tight. You know I'm gonna stick with yeah, when the hard times hit. Somebody's gotta stand in the storm, In the lightening! When it poors! Be strong enough to lean on. Show you what backbone is for. Some bodies gotta stand in the storm. Some bodies gotta stand in the storm! What! What! Okay! Yeah! Yeah Yeah!! So tough I keep it rough. ____________ I laugh at these clowns. Me and my crew we keep it_______ Live yours Boy! This is my life! I stick my chest out so there's no doubt. I had enough ____________________ As I _____ through the rain, the pain just rip right through my vein. But I still maintain. Ah! __________________ Insane like Busey! __________________ _____ I'm the best at it. You just like the rest at it. I'm sick like a meth addict. But ain't no intervention. Just _____apprehension. ___________________ ___________________ ___________________ Screaming ____ Backbone! (____ show you what a backbone is for baby!) Somebody's gotta stand in the storm, In the lightening! When it poors! Be strong enough to lean on. Show you what a backbone is for. Some bodies gotta stand in the storm. In the lightening!

No problem, glad I could be of some help! My daughter and I worked on the lyrics the day Seacrest released the audio, some friends on another site inquired about them.. some spots are still not 100% open to suggestions but fairly confident on about 98%... can't wait til official lyrics come out!

I'm sure he's saying 'Sick like a meth addict'
2 reasons 1, difficult to explain. He's using a simile, to describe his withdrawal and the rushes that come from storms. Almost makes you out of your mind. 2, He says 'but ain't no intervention.' There is no intervention for his symptoms from these storms. How does that sound, honestly now XD I never thought I would try and translate hip hop! |

"Stucks" is slang for Stuck-Ups a "Meth Daddy" is a drug Kingpin. "Live your Gold - This is My Life" is an obvious nod to the Australian Gold episode.... Last edited by Wario; 17 May 2011 at 17:13. |

Meat Loaf (with assistance by Mark McGrath):
This town splits right down the middle There's rich and poor, black and white Right down to the saints and the sinners And the ones who might This world is tough as a splinter There's ones that flinch and ones that fight Round here you can sure tell the difference 'tween the rocks and the rolling tides Chorus: I know I'm gonna stick with ya When the hard times hit Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Cue lightning, when it pours Be strong enough to lean on I show you what a backbone's for Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Somebody's gotta stand John Rich (with assistance by Mark McGrath): Well, nobody likes a white flag quitter Leaves you there, tucks and runs Luck's comin' and it hits like a hammer Kicks like a shotgun I ain't out here looking for trouble I'm no stranger to a uphill fight You need a hand when it all starts slippin'? You can bet I'm gonna hold on tight Chorus: Well, you know I'm gonna stick with ya When the hard times hit Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Cue lightning, when it pours Be strong enough to lean on I show you what a backbone's for Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Lil Jon: What? What? Okay Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah So tough I keep it rough For get down I laugh with these clowns Me and my crew, we keep the trump tight Live your gold-ah This is my life I stick my chest out so there's no doubt I had enough No trust when I mus' Have I sunk through the rain? The pain rushes through my vein but I still maintain Take out of my duty Insane like Busey Now who wanna test....? Now see I'm the best at it You just like the rest at it I'm sick like a meth addict But ain't no intervention It's your apprehension And then your dissention Shots at your dome Send you home Screaming, no backbone 'Cause I will show you what a backbone's for, baby Let's go Chorus: Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Cue lightning, when it pours Be strong enough to lean on I show you what a backbone's for Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Cue lightning, when it pours Be strong enough to lean on I show you what a backbone's for Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Somebody's gotta stand in the storm Show you what a backbone Show you what a backbone Show you what a backbone's for |

I think Explicit Sinz is the closest, personally. Lil Jon's line is definitely crunk tight in my opinion. He uses that expression or one similar to it all the time. only line I am not sure of, is either ride them 24's, Sinz eplanation for that line makes sense or if it is ????? lightening when it pours. I wish they would hurry up and just release it already so we can figure it out - LOL. I want to be able to download it so I can listen to it whenever I want and not just when I am at the computer. And so I can have my money support the charities involved.

"Sick like a meth addict" seems far more likely to me than Meth Daddy.
