Why Street Kings is worth a look for Keanu Reeves fans beyond John Wick
David Ayer’s 2008 crime thriller gives Keanu Reeves a deliberately unheroic role: a grieving LAPD detective whose methods are part of the problem.
Lyrics
Windows
[Chorus: James Fauntleroy]
If your eyes are the window to your soul
Open eyes bring the cold
If your dreams keep you warm at night
Baby just keep 'em closed
If your eyes are the window
I can sneak in at night
In your eyes, I can see your soul
Staring back into mine
[Verse 1: Common]
She was a beautiful rose
From the concrete and heat she grows
In the dark room her light was exposed
Her picture of men, we walk on all fours
Heart opened and heart closed
Every now and then she sparkles
You can tell she was hurt by the words that she chose
I'm thinking like Lauryn, a rose is still a rose
Even when the door close, there grows a new one
I told her it's some good men, she asked me if I knew one
Her daddy left a hole 'cause she never really knew him
Okay, sometimes from commitment, we do run
Rocking Lou Vuitton, said she focused on the Christian
