Yeah, here we go for the hundredth time
Hand grenade pins in every line
Throw em up and let something shine
Going out of my fucking mind
Filthy mouth, no excuse
Find a new place to hang this noose
String me up from atop these roofs
Knot it tight so I wont get loose
Truth is, you can stop and stare
Bled myself out and no one cares
Dug the trench out, laid down there
With the shovel up out of reach somewhere
Yeah, someone pour it in
Make it a dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
I bleed it out!
Go, stop this show
Choppy words in that sloppy flow
Shotgun opera, Lock and Load
Cock it back and then watch it go
Mama help me, Ive been cursed
Death is rolling in every verse
Candy paint on his brand new hearse
Cant contain him, he knows he works
Fuck, this hurts. I wont lie
Doesnt matter how hard I try
Half the words dont mean a thing
And I know that I wont be satisfied
So why, try ignoring him?
Make it a dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When I bring that chorus in
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
I bleed it out!
Ive opened up these scars!
Ill make you face this!
Ive pulled myself so far!
Ill make you face this, now!
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
Just to throw it away
I bleed it out
I bleed it out
I bleed it out... |
In this farewell, theres no blood, theres no alibi
Cause Ive drawn regret from the truth of a thousand lies
So let mercy come, and wash away what Ive done
Ill face myself, to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself, and let go of what Ive done
Put to rest what you thought of me
While I clean this slate with the hands of uncertainty
So let mercy come, and wash away what Ive done
Ill face myself, to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself, and let go of what Ive done
For what Ive done, Ill start again, and whatever pain may come
Today, this ends, and forgiving what Ive done
Ill face myself, to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself, and let go of what Ive done
What Ive done
Forgiving what Ive done |
So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Live from the rhythm, its
Something wild, venomous
Enemies trying to read me
Youre all looking highly illiterate
Blindly forgetting if Im in the mix
You wont find an equivalent
Ive been here killing it
Longer than youve been alive, you idiot
And it makes you so mad
Somebody else could be stepping in front of you
And it makes you so mad that youre not the only one
Theres more than one of you
And you cant understand the fact
That its over and done, hope you had fun
Youve got a lot to discuss on the bus
Headed back where youre from
So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Goodbye, good riddance
A period is after every sentence
Did my time with my cellmate
Maxed out so now we finished
Every day was like a hail date
Every night was like a hailstorm
Took her back to my tinted windows
Showin out, she in rare form
Wings up, now Im airborne
King Push, they got a chair for him
Make way for the new queen
The old lineup, where they cheer for em
Consequence when you aint there for him
Were you there for him?
Did you care for him?
You were dead wrong
So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Live from the Genesis
Underline it for emphasis
There is no way to pretend
That we dont really know what the ending is
Part of me thinking
That even addressing is being too generous
Do you really think that theyll notice
When you get removed from the premises?
And it makes you so mad
That somebody else could be stepping in front of you
And it makes you so mad
That I wont give you the respect that the others do
And you cant understand it was over
Before its begun, hope you had fun
Youve got a lot to discuss on the bus
Headed back where youre from
So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye |
Ive lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile
That Ill fake for the sake of being with you
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away
Ive tried like you
To do everything you wanted too
This is the last time
Ill take the blame for the sake of being with you
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away, pushes me away |
And it goes like - bang!
And theyre off and runnin
Lookin around like someone do somethin
Scatter but it dont matter, I come gunnin
So little time to squeeze all this fun in
Ah man!
Comin at you now
Stupid enough to stand
Well back you down
Like
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
What?
No it cant be stopped
Break out ya little riot, get it call the cops
Call the SWAT team, gimme all you got
The finger ready on the trigger
And were callin the shots, so
Yall really gonna brawl or not
My best bets you probably gonna stall or stop
Got gall, my crew rocks, up into ya block
And when I sit back
And put a hole in your chateau, ha
We dont huff and puff
Well turn your homeland and stuff to a gust of dust
But Im back, you act like enoughs enough
Say a peep and I promise well fuck you up
Skip the rep for the sake of the family
I dont have to say a word, yall understand me
Stand up Ill put you back down flat
And well keep it like, like, like that! |
Ive got an aching head
Echoes and buzzing noises
I know the words we said
But wish I couldve turned our voices down
This is not black and white
Only organized confusion
Im just trying to get it right
And in spite of all I shouldve done
I was not mad at you
I was not trying to tear you down
The words that I couldve used
I was too scared to say out loud
If I cannot break your fall
Ill pick you up right off the ground
If you felt invisible, I wont let you feel that now
Invisible, invisible
Invisible, invisible
Didnt get your way
And its an empty feeling
Youve got a lot to say
You just want to know youre being heard
But this is not black and white
There are no clear solutions
Im just trying to get it right
And in spite of all I shouldve done
I was not mad at you
I was not trying to tear you down
The words that I couldve used
I was too scared to say out loud
If I cannot break your fall
Ill pick you up right off the ground
If you felt invisible, I wont let you feel that now
Invisible , invisible
Invisible, invisible
This is not black and white
There are no clear solutions
Im just trying to get it right
And in spite of all I shouldve done
I was not mad at you
I was not trying to tear you down
The words that I couldve used
I was too scared to say out loud
If I cannot break your fall
Ill pick you up right off the ground
If you felt invisible, I wont let you feel that now
Invisible, invisible
Invisible, invisible
Invisible, invisible
Invisible, invisible
You guys ready?
So we have a new album out, it is called One More Light
And as were making an album, there are always certain songs that stand out to each of us
Umm, and kind of help define the course of the record
And for me, this was always, this was always one song
That I felt like, umm, I really wanted to save
That I didnt want people to hear until they heard the whole album
And thats why, thats why we put it first on the record
This is actually, uh, this is only the second time weve ever played it too
So you guys get a, get a second concert |
I don’t like my mind right now
Stacking up problems that are so unnecessary
Wish that I could slow things down
I wanna let go but there’s comfort in the panic
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everythings about me
Yeah, I drive myself crazy
Cause I can’t escape the gravity
Im holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
To so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around whats bringing me down
If I just let go, Id be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
You say that Im paranoid
But I’m pretty sure the world is out to get me
It’s not like I make the choice
To let my mind stay so fucking messy
I know Im not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
I know Im not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
Im holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
So much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around whats bringing me down
If I just let go, Id be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
I know Im not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
Know Im not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everythings about me
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
So much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around whats bringing me down
If I just let go, Id be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Why is everything so heavy?
Yeah, why is everything so heavy? |
When I pretend, everything is what I want it to be
I looked exactly like what you always wanted to see
When I pretend, I cant forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second just cause I know I can
But I cant pretend that this is the way, itll stay, Im just
I cant pretend Im who you want me to be so Im
You
I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go
Let me take back my life, Id rather be all alone
Anywhere on my own cause I can see
The very worst part of you is me
I remember what they taught to me
Remember condescending talk of who I ought to be
Remember listening to all of that and this again
So I pretended up a person who was fitting in
And now you think this person, really is me and Im
The more I push, the more Im pulling away, cause Im
You
I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go
Let me take back my life, Id rather be all alone
Anywhere on my own cause I can see
The very worst part of you, the very worst part of you is me
This isnt what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from me, like this
This isnt what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from me, like this
This isnt what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from me, like this
This isnt what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from me, like this
You
I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go
Let me take back my life, Id rather be all alone
Anywhere on my own cause I can see
The very worst part of you, the very worst part of you is me |
Turn my mic up louder, I got to say something
Lightweights step it aside when we come in
Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumping
People on the street, they panic and start running
Words on loose-leaf sheet complete coming
I jump in my mind and summon the rhyme Im dumping
Healing the blind, I promise to let the sun in
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming
Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping
Fuck that, I wanna see some fists pumping
Risk something, take back whats yours
Say something that you know they might attack you for
Cause Im sick of being treated like I have before
Like its stupid standing for what Im standing for
Like this wars really just a different brand of war
Like it doesnt cater to rich and abandon poor
Like they understand you in the back of the jet
When you cant put gas in your tank
These fuckers are laughing their way to the bank and cashing the check
Asking you to have compassion and have some respect
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day
In the living room laughing, like, What did he say?
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never-ending
Controlling, I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection
Its haunting how I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
(Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming) Confusing what is real
(This lack of self-control I fear is never-ending
Controlling) Confusing what is real |
Yo, yo, I put Xero
Junkyard Scientific, Styles, haha
Yo, I thought you knew, I thought, ha, uh
I tell ya, ha, uh
Its like a royal flush, a rush when I bust verbally
Plus crush Earths crust and enemy MCs to dust with one touch
Stonehenge rhyme-riddle a mystery
With Earth-rattle reckonin, rewritin your history
With blistery flesh, meshed with a mess of a civil unrest on wax
Test pressed, scratched with finesse and next
Blessed with extraterrestrial techs
And programmed for the organs above your necks
Undressin hip-hop, and makin it over again
This is the end
Ill men youll never defend
From the deep end, we watch trends, and then we see rock
And devise plans, strand them in the penalty box
To mentally stop brains of virtual train wrecks
Dissect the picture to the words turned up by the text
Whats next? Heat-seeking treats meet your sect
When you spit a thousand words, and havent painted a stroke yet
Believe this, Im only in it for the fiends
And mean every single sentence that I scream
Its just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
Thats got us all dancin in the mist
Believe this, Im only in it for the fiends
And mean every single sentence that I scream
Its just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
Thats got us all dancin in the mist, mist
With your incomphrehensible bullet-hole ventilators
Stainless steel metal, invincible, diamond, and platinum-plated
Psychologically fabricated facade
God-sent, and hellbent, are mentally not making any sense to me
Eventually, you tempted me to put you on the choppin block
As a sacrifice to hip-hop when I knock you off
A razor blade, and pop, and lock the axe in
Put your head in a basket as an example for those who pass it
Medievally approaching these festivities
Jump around frequently when you see me, like BDP on PCP
Frequently, me and Mark transform like DMC
To soundwaves of song set in every frequency
Endlessly worthless, crying out your curses
Playin all these games, and turnin this into a circus
Witless, and worthless, and cryin out your curses
Playin all these games…
Believe this, Im only in it for the fiends
And mean every single sentence that I scream
Its just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
Thats got us all dancin in the mist
Believe this, Im only in it for the fiends
And mean every single sentence that I scream
Its just the sound as the breakbeat kicks
Thats got us all dancin in the mist
One two, one, one, yeah, one two
Ha, ha, ha, Cash Double-Oh, Xero, 818, you know? Thats how we do
Xero, 818, you know? Thats how we do
Yeah, check it out, yall, check it out, Cash Double-O
Tell your grandparents, tell your brother and sister, tell everybody, ha
One two, ha, ha, one two, ha, one two
Yo, can you hear me?
Haha, its like that
I aint takin it back, haha |
Our 12,500 closest friends in London are here, tonight
Making this such a beautiful sight to see
Were gonna play a- Were pleased
Were gonna play a b-side for you
Something thats not on the album
It made it onto the b-side of One Step Closer here, in the UK
Check it out, its High Voltage
Ive been diggin into crates, ever since I was living in space
Before the rat race, before monkeys had human traits
I mastered numerology and big bang theology
Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology
Invented the mic so I could start blessing it
Chin-checking kids to make my point like an impressionist
Many men have tried to shake us
But I twist mic cords in double helixes and show you what Im made of
I buckle knees like leg braces
Cast a spell of instrumentalness on all of these MCs who hate us
Leave you without a shoulder to cry on
From now to infinity, let icons be bygones
I firebomb, ghostly notes haunt this
I tried threats, but moved on to a promise
I stomp shit, with or without an accomplice
Run the gauntlet with whoever that wants this
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
I put a kick in the backbones of clones with microphones
Never satisfy my rhyme jones
Spraying bright day over what you might say
My blood types Krylon, technicolor type A
On highways, bright with road rage
Pages of wind in cages of tin that bounce all around
Devouring the scene
Subliminal gangrene paintings, overall the same thing
Sing-song karaoke copy bullshit
Break bones verbally with sticks-and-stone tactics
Fourth dimension combat convention
Write rhymes at ease while the track stands at attention
Meant to put you away, with a pencil pistol official
Sixteen-line, the rhyme missile
While you risk your all, I pick out all your flaws
Spittin rah blah blah blah, you can say you saw
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
Sometimes...
Sometimes...
Sometimes, I feel like a prophet
Misunderstood, under the gun like a new disease
Sometimes, I feel like a prophet
Misunderstood, under the gun like a new disease
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Yo everybody, put em up like this!
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
Ladies and gentlemen!
Thank you guys very much!
Dilated peoples in the house!
Dilated peoples, ladies and gentlemen
Much respect |
A-one, two, three four
Bubbles, bubbles
I wish my name was bubbles, bubbles
I wish my friends were bubbles, bubbles
I ride my car on bubbles, bubbles
I go real far on bubbles
On bubbles
Bubbles, bubbles
I blow a lot of bubbles, bubbles
I show a lot of bubbles, bubbles
I ride a plane on bubbles, bubbles
I go insane on bubbles
On bubbles
Cause its a B and a U
And a B and a B and an L
And an E and an S
Its a B and a U
And a B and a B and an L
And an E and an S
And an S
Oh bubbles, oh bubbles
I wish my name was bubbles, bubbles
I wish my friends were bubbles, and bubbles
I drive my car on bubbles, on bubbles
I go real far on bubbles
On bubbles, yeah |
Back, before I said goodbye
Just as the first day turned to night
Just as the concrete turned to dust
And the steel turned into rust
All I could think was a new way to dig through the damage
Couldnt think of a way to get through this
Now, I see you taking advantage
And I find another reason to do this
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Let go, its begun
Close your eyes, Im not done
Breathe a word and waste your breath
And keep it up til theres nothing left
Now, that I said goodbye
Just as the darkness turned to light
Just as the next light turns to day
And the world gets underway
All I can see is the anticipation
Waiting to take this out on the wind and the raindrops
And I waited patiently, taking it in
Ready for the first of the face-offs
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Let go, its begun
Close your eyes, Im not done
Breathe a word and waste your breath
And keep it up til theres nothing left
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Let go, its begun
Close your eyes, Im not done
Breathe a word and waste your breath
And keep it up til theres nothing left |
Wake in a sweat again
Another days been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like Ill never leave this place
Theres no escape
Im my own worst enemy
Ive given up
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me
I dont know what to take
Thought I was focused, but Im scared
Im not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help, somehow, somewhere
And no one cares
Im my own worst enemy
Ive given up
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me
God!
Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my...
Put me out of my fucking misery!
Ive given up
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me |
Thank you
Come see me
In this farewell
Theres no blood, theres no alibi
Cause Ive drawn regret
From the truth of a thousand lies
So let mercy come and wash away
What Ive done
Ill face myself
To cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
Put to rest what you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty
So let mercy come and wash away
What Ive done
Ill face myself
To cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
Yeah!
For what Ive done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
Forgiving what Ive done
Ill face myself
To cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
What Ive done
Forgiving what Ive done |
She cant hide no matter how hard she tries
Her secret disguise behind the lies
And at night she cries away her pride
With eyes shut tight and staring at her insides
All her friends know why she cant sleep at night
All her family asking if shes alright
All she wants to do is get rid of this hell
Well, all shes got to do is stop kidding herself
She can only fool herself for so long
She can only fool herself for so long
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
When it comes to how to live his life, he cant be told
Says hes got it all under control
Thinks he knows its not a problem hes stuck with
But in reality, itd be a problem to just quit
An addict, and he cant hold the reigns
The pain is worse, cause his friends have it the same
Tries to slow down the problem hes got
But cant get off the carousel until he makes it stop
He can only fool himself for so long
He can only fool himself for so long
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
Fly with me under the wings I gave you
Try to be closer to me, Ill save you
Fly with me under the wings I gave you
Try to be closer to me, Ill save you
Just follow me
I never know just why you run
And Ill show you what you want to see
The part you hide from whats inside
Just follow me
So far away, away from me
And Ill show you what you want to see
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me |
Next message
Yo, what up? Its Stef, call me up
Im gonna be in town all this week
So uhh if you wanna get that track taken care of
Let me know. Call me on my cell, later |
You must exercise the proper technique |
I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I cant help the fact
That everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want, what I want you to feel
But its like no matter what I do
I cant convince you to just believe this is real
So I let go, watchin you turn your back
Like you always do, face away and pretend that Im not
But Ill be here cause youre all that I got
I cant feel the way I did before, dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored, time wont heal this damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
I am a little bit insecure, a little unconfident
Cause you dont understand, I do what I can
But sometimes I dont make sense
I am what you never want to say but Ive never
Had a doubt, its like no matter what I do
I cant convince you for once just to hear me out
So I let go, watchin you turn your back
Like you always do, face away and pretend that Im not
But Ill be here cause youre all that I got
I cant feel the way I did before, dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored, time wont heal this damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
No, hear me out now, youre gonna listen to me
Like it or not, right now, hear me out now
Youre gonna listen to me like it or not, right now
I cant feel the way I did before
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
I cant feel the way I did before, dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored, time wont heal this damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
I cant feel, dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored time wont heal, dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored |
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
From the thread to the needle, middle to end
When skies cock back and shock that which couldnt defend
The rain then sends dripping an acidic question
Forcefully, the power of suggestion
Then with the eyes tightly shut
Looking through the rust and rot and dust
A spot of light floods the floor
And pours itself upon the world of pretend
And the eyes ease open and its dark again
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
In a minute, youll find me
Eyes burn me up
You say youll never forgive me
But the lies have piled up
Moving all around, screaming of the ups and downs
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
And as the wheels go round and the sunset creeps
Past the street lamps, cars, chain-link, and concrete
A window then grows and catches the eye
Cries out a yellow light as it passes it by
A small black figure sits in front of a box
Inside a box of rock with the needles on top
Nothing stops in this land of the pain
The sane lose not knowing they were part of the game
And then the insides change, the box stays the same
The shame, shovel up the pieces of the pain
You can try to hide yourself in this world of pretend
But when the papers crumpled up, it cant be perfect again

Forfeit the game
Before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame
And puts your name to shame
Cover up your face
You cant run the race

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life
My pride is broken
You like to think youre never wrong
You have to act like youre someone
You want someone to hurt like you
You want to share what youve been through
You love the things I say I do
The way I hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in

My pride is broken

And these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go, go, go
I finally let you go
This time I finally let you
Test my will, test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Yall go hard, I go smart
Hows that working out for yall in the back, huh?
Ive seen that frustration
Been crossed and lost and told No
And Ive come back unshaken
Let down and lived and let go
So you can let it be known
I dont hold back, I hold my own
I cant be mapped, I cant be cloned
I cant C-flat, it aint my tone
I cant fall back, I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
Cause I was there saying
And these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you go
Go, go, go
Oh oh oh
This time I
This time I
This time I
This time I
This time I finally let you go
This time I finally let you
Go
And these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you go
Go, go, go |
Why does it feel like night today?
Something in heres not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoias all I got left
I dont know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
Its like a face that I hold inside
Like a face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
So I know that when its time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right underneath my skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
I know Ive got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
Youve got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoias probably worse
I dont know what set me off first but I know what I cant stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I cant add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
So you know that when its time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin |
Dont start with the ugly part
Dont end with the things thatll make them want to walk away
Tune in at the din again, another price aint cheap
But somebodys gonna have to pay
Oh yes, you can only guess what it is, what it was
Dont remember what I had in mind
Shotgunning on a joy ride, coming down the block
Half-cocked nearly half the time
Give it back, give it back
Give it back, g-g-give it back, sing it
One time for the words divine
And two times for the things that you hope you never have to say
Three scenes in a dead mans dream, and the girls tell the boys
That they better fucking run away
Live it up or g-g-give it up, turn it up, tune it out
Let it rhyme with the other line
Shotgunning on a joy ride, coming down the block
Half-cocked nearly all the time
Give it back, give it back
Give it back, g-g-give it back, sing it |
What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I sit here and try to stand it?
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness?
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
Because I cant hold on when Im stretched so thin
I make the right moves, but Im lost within
I put on my daily façade, but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I cant hold on to what I want when Im stretched so thin
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on to anything, watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in
If I turn my back, Im senseless
And to go blindly seems defenseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then theyll take from me til everything is gone
If I let them go, Ill be outrun
But if I try to catch them, Ill be outdone
If Im killed by the questions like a cancer
Then Ill be buried in the silence of the answer
By myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I cant hold on to what I want when Im stretched so thin
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on to anything, watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in
How do you think
Ive lost so much?
Im so afraid
That Im out of touch
How do you expect
I will know what to do
When all I know
Is what you tell me to?
Dont you know
I cant tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I cant seem to convince myself why
Im stuck on the outside
Dont you know
I cant tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I cant seem to convince myself why
Im stuck on the outside
I cant hold on
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on
With thoughts of failure sinking in
I cant hold on
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on
With thoughts of failure sinking |

I dont know who to trust, no surprise
Everyone feels so far away from me
Heavy thoughts sift through dust and the lies
Trying not to break
But Im so tired of this deceit
Every time I try to make myself
Get back up on my feet
All I ever think about is this
All the tiring time between
And how trying to put my trust in you
Just takes so much out of me
Take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
Tension is building inside, steadily
Everyone feels so far away from me
Heavy thoughts forcing their way out of me
Trying not to break
But Im so tired of this deceit
Every time I try to make myself
Get back up on my feet
All I ever think about is this
All the tiring time between
And how trying to put my trust in you
Just takes so much out of me
Take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
I wont waste myself on you
You, you
Waste myself on you
You, you
Ill take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
Everything from the inside
And just throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
You, you |
Here, I wait for a good thing to resolve
When Im sinking in a ship I cant control
And Im sick with a smile I try and hide
Broken pieces of a lie I cant let go
I never meant to let you down, again
I had it all, but watched it drown
Why does every good thing have to end?
Ive burned every bridge before it began
I changed, a man I thought Id never be
Ive burned every bridge before it began
I swear, Im gonna change
Here, I wait, swimming in a sea of dark
Im lost in the current of my faults
Here, I sink, holding on with all I had
The tide will rise, Im gonna own whats mine
I never meant to let you down, again
I had it all, but watched it drown
Why does every good thing have to end?
Ive burned every bridge before it began
I changed, a man I thought Id never be
Ive burned every bridge before it began
I swear, Im gonna change
All I wanna do is break free
All I wanna do is break free
I never meant to let you down, again
I had it all, but watched it drown
Why does every good thing have to end?
Ive burned every bridge before it began
I changed, a man I thought Id never be
Ive burned every bridge before it began
I swear, Im gonna change
I swear, Im gonna change
All I wanna do is break free
All I wanna do is break free
I swear, Im gonna change |

Im tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Dont know what youre expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Ive become so numb
I cant feel you there
Ive become so tired
So much more aware
Im becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
Cant you see that youre smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
And every second I waste is more than I can take
Ive become so numb
I cant feel you there
Ive become so tired
So much more aware
Im becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you
Ive become so numb
I cant feel you there
Ive become so tired
So much more aware
Im becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
Ive become so numb
I cant feel you there
Im tired of being what you want me to be
Ive become so numb
I cant feel you there
Im tired of being what you want me to be |
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me
And I let it all out to find
That Im not the only person with these things in mind
But all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that Ive got left to feel
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
What I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
Ive felt so long
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like Im close to something real
I wanna find something I wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
And Ive got nothing to say
I cant believe I didnt fall right down on my face
Looking everywhere only to find
That its not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
What do I have but negativity
Cause I cant justify the way everyone is looking at me
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
What I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
Ive felt so long
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like Im close to something real
I wanna find something I wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I will never know
Myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel
Anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be
Anything till I break away from me
I will break away
Ill find myself today
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
What I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
Ive felt so long
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like Im close to something real
I wanna find something I wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like Im somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like Im somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong |
I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When Im done here?
So if youre asking me
I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that Ive done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
And dont resent me
And when youre feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest
Dont be afraid
Ive taken my beating
Ive shared what I made
Im strong on the surface
Not all the way through
Ive never been perfect
But neither have you
So if youre asking me
I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that Ive done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Dont resent me
And when youre feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest
Forgetting all the hurt inside
Youve learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I cant be who you are
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that Ive done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Dont resent me
And when youre feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest
Forgetting all the hurt inside
Youve learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I cant be who you are
I cant be who you are |

It starts with one thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time all I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away, its so unreal
Didnt look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin to hold on, didnt even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when I
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mockin me
Actin like I was part of your property
Rememberin all the times you fought with me
Im surprised it got so far
Things arent the way they were before
You wouldnt even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end
You kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when I
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
Ive put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
Theres only one thing you should know
Ive put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
Theres only one thing you should know
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter |
Memories consume like opening the wounds
Im picking me apart again
You all assume
Im safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again
I dont want to be the one the battles always choose
cause inside I realize that Im the one confused
I dont know whats worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I dont know why I instigate
And say what I dont mean
I dont know how I got this way
I know its not alright
So Im breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit tonight
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more than any time before
I have no options left again
I dont want to be the one the battles always choose
cause inside I realize that Im the one confused
I dont know whats worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I dont know why I instigate
And say what I dont mean
I dont know how I got this way
Ill never be alright
So Im breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit tonight
Ill paint it on the walls
cause Im the one at fault
Ill never fight again
And this is how it ends
I dont know whats worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity to show you what I mean
I dont know how I got this way
Ill never be alright
So Im breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit tonight |
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away, if I give in
My life, my pride is broken
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
I wont believe a word you say
Im cut to pieces by the sound of every breath you take
Im swimming through a sea of hurt
My life, my pride is stronger
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race

Its time to sink or swim
Its time to sink or swim
To see who gets scared when the lights go dim
Its time to sink or swim
To see who gets scared when the lights go dim
Its time to sink or swim
To see who gets scared when the lights go dim
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame

Reaching out, our hands grasp onto hope
This desert land, we feel the soil choke
Pray for the rain that never seems to come
Plant the seed thats burning in the sun, no
Ba di da da, da da da
Ba di da da, ba da da, whoa
Ba di da da, da da da
Ba di da da, ba da da, whoa |
And when I close my eyes, tonight
To symphonies of blinding light
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away, oh
And when I close my eyes, tonight
To symphonies of blinding light, oh
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away |
Goddamn it, Im not gonna do no laundry
Said goddamn it, Im not gonna do no laundry
Everybody knows
I dont do no goddamn clothes
The laundry, the laundry
The laundry, the laundry
Oh, I aint gonna do no laundry...BITCH! |
You say youre not gonna fight
Cause no one will fight for you
Cause you think theres not enough love
And no one to give it to
And you say that faith is a lie
And fear is your only truth
And youre sure that everyone else
Is feeling the way you do
You say youve hurt for so long
That pain isnt something new
But, dont think the things that theyve done
Predict what youre going to do
The truth is that trust is a gift
Its something we all can lose
So hold on, its not where it goes
Its where it can lead you to
Hold on, its not where it goes
Its where it can lead you to
Hold on, its not where it goes
Its where it can lead you to
Hold on, its not where it goes
Its where it can lead you to
Hold on, its not where it goes
Its where it can lead you to |

I dont have the patience
Before you even say it I know
You let your pride or your ego
Talk slick to me no
That is not the way I get down
And look at how you lose your composure
Now let me show you
Exactly how the breaking point sounds
I wanna see you-
Exactly how the breaking point sounds
That is not the way I get down
That is not the way it goes down
That is not the way I get down
That is not the way it goes down
Th-th-that is not the way I get down
That is not the way it goes down
That is not the way I get down
That is not the way it goes down |
I cannot take this anymore
Im saying everything Ive said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less youll say
Youll find that out anyway
Everything you say to me
I need a little room to breathe
I find the answers arent so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Everything you say to me
I need a little room to breathe
Everything you say to me
I need a little room to breathe
Shut up when Im talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up when Im talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up
Im about to break
Everything you say to me
I need a little room to breathe
Everything you say to me
I need a little room to breathe |
Drop it!
Yeaaah baby, 17
Ay, ay
Ya ya ya ya ya
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
She was dancing, she was smiling
Roses blooming in her cheeks
In a quiet kind of litany
She accepted some defeat
In a happy home, I was a king, I had a golden throne
But I will carry it along
I dont want to be the one
The battles always choose
Cause inside, I realize
That Im the one confused
I turn the music up
Back with another one of those block rockin beats
Dont you worry, dont you worry now
Yeah!
Get down!
Down, get down
Get down, Get down
Get down
Wo-wo-wo-work it
Wo-wo-wo-work it
Wo-wo-wo-work it
Wo-wo-wo- Working you in overtime
Ayy, I will, ayy, its-
Ayy, I will, ahh, hum huh
Ayy, I will, ayy, its-
I wonder, I wonder, I wonder, I wonder
Ayy, I will, ayy, its-
Ayy, I will, ahh, hum huh
Ayy, I will, ayy
It started with a low light
Next thing I knew, they ripped me from my bed
And then they took my blood type
It left a strange impression in my head
Im so alone, nothing feels like home
Im so alone, trying to find my way back home to you
Yeah
You got me so wild
How can I ever deny?
You got me so high
So high I cannot feel the fire
One by one
Kimi to mita sora to bigguban
Arekurutte kireidatta
Shashin ni wa nokosenai bamen
Bokura ikite iru
Ima o iki teru no sa
Whats my age again?
Whats my age again?
Whats my age again?
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God
Ay, ay
Whos gonna save the world tonight?
Whos gonna bring it back to life?
Were gonna make it, you and I
Were gonna save the world tonight
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Control yourself, take only what you need from it
A family of trees wanted to be haunted
Were gonna celebrate
One more time
Celebrate and dance so free
Musics got me feeling so free
One more time
Take me home
Take me home
So, Im picking up the pieces now, where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again
All I want to do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I havent got
Its something unpredictable, but in the end its right
Take me home |
Welcome one and all to the show
Were wired up, fired up, fucking ready to go
In the back of the parking lot, outside of the bar
Twenty deep, twenty feet from the boulevard
Black hoodies, black caps, black label in glasses
Previewing the new shit before all the masses
Cause the first thing I need when Ive got a new beat
Is to see how it sounds, echoing off the street
I just take it for a spin, pop the CD in
Slide it up to ten and get that rear view shaking
Then play it again so theres no mistaking
San Andreas the block, get this bitch earthquaking
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is too fast, you just wont last
You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken
You like to think youre never wrong
You live what youve learned
You have to act like youre someone
You live what youve learned
You want someone to hurt like you
You live what youve learned
You want to share what you have been through
You live what youve learned
You love the things I say I do
The way I hurt myself again, just to get back at you
You take away, when I give in
My life, my pride is broken
You like to think youre never wrong
You live what youve learned
You have to act like youre someone
You live what youve learned
You want someone to hurt like you
You live what youve learned
You want to share what you have been through
You live what youve learned
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is too fast, you just wont last
Forfeit the game before somebody else

Yeah here we go for the hundredth time
Hand grenade pins in every line
Throw em up and let something shine
Going out of my fucking mind
Filthy mouth, no excuse
Find a new place to hang this noose
String me up from atop these roofs
Knot it tight so I wont get loose
Truth is you can stop and stare
Run myself out and no one cares
Dug a trench out, laid down there
With a shovel up out of reach somewhere
Yeah someone pour it in
Make it a dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out, go, stop the show
Choppy words in a sloppy flow
Shotgun, I pull, lock and load
Cock it back and then watch it go
Mama help me Ive been cursed
Death is rolling in every verse
Candy paint on his brand new Hearse
Cant contain him he knows he works
Fuck this hurts, I wont lie
Doesnt matter how hard I try
Half the words dont mean a thing
And I know that I wont be satisfied
So why try ignoring him?
Make it a dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Ive opened up these scars
Ill make you face this
I pulled myself so far
Ill make you face this now
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out, digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out
I bleed it out
I bleed it out |
Wake in a sweat again
Another days been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like Ill never leave this place
Theres no escape
Im my own worst enemy
Ive given up
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating!
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me!
I dont know what to take
Thought I was focused but Im scared
Im not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help somehow somewhere
And no one cares
Im my own worst enemy
Ive given up...
Im sick of Feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating!
Tell me what the fuck is
Wrong with me!
God!
Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my...
Put me out of my fucking misery!
Ive given up...
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating!
Tell me what the fuck is
Wrong with me! |
I will be myself
Until its time
For me to fly
And I will walk away
With this message on my board
And I will walk away…
You should be yourself
Until its time
For us to fly
And I will walk away
With this message on my board
And I will walk away

The night in the corner in the back of the halls where we sit all alone and listen to the rainfall

The night in the corner in the back of the halls where we sit all alone and listen to the rainfall
Callin from all sides, they surround all around
You can’t see a thing, but you can hear the sounds
Fallin from the sky, upside-down
To the beat of heart as your whole head pounds
Callin from all sides, they surround all around
You can’t see a thing, but you can hear the sounds
Fallin from the sky, upside-down
To the beat of heart as your whole head pounds

Yo, y’all better wake up; you think we don’t see y’all drifting?
Sleeping on the job and forgetting your position?
Sit straight and listen; what you are missing
I cook up a batch, hot straight out the kitchen
No indecision, I spit right
Heavy as a fist fight
No gloves and no masks
No pain and no slack
No way to look back
Nobody to say I can’t make my own path
Cause the way that y’all act, I wanna break something
Comin’ at me like the pain I feel means nothing
Comin’ from a place where you can’t relate
Where every word from your face comes across as fake
And I can hardly take, the way that y’all treat us
Sending this out to anyone who won’t believe us
Spelling it out so y’all know the deal
And if you can’t feel it, maybe you can’t feel
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
Man, who are you?
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
What are you saying?
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
What are you writing?
I’m standing in the middle of it
Middle of it
Middle of it
Man, who are you?
Eat your words
Say what you used to say and act how you used to act
Every time you heard my occupation was a rap attack
My conversation’s stacked, I switch my defense on you
Every time you want to get deep you’ll see my knuckle package
Born to die, ferocious emcee make you go back and write your rhymes
My style chokes up like a little league baseball player
It moves, I’m strangling as I’m swinging as main mangler
I wanna dee-four, poach you as your seafood is C4
I’m gonna rap and you still knee-high
Y’all wanna train with me, guy?
Man, it’s destructive
Man, it’s like jabs from boxing champ Lennox
Perfect for your head, I’ll fit it like New Era hats
That top off suits, B-boy etiquette
Express myself with my hang-side
Then I extend one finger, the middle to fucking all crouds
Yo, Motion
Sometimes I feel it’s like nothing that I dos ever good enough
Like I should stop and go back to L.A
Back away where I know I won’t be seen
And nobody’s gonna critique the music that I make
And mistake me for some fucking kid with a backpack
Rapping on a track just to make a buck
For a mix-tape that sucks
And DJs that don’t get it
But I been down that road and I know
People don’t wanna go where I might go
Don’t wanna know what it’s like
To step outside your zone with a mic
Just controlling the hype
And if we need to take shots from them
And be stopped by them just to meet these ends
Then so be it, I will not hold my breath
I’m gonna spit ‘til I got none left
Motion, where you at? |
You go too fast
I watch how the moon sits in the sky in a dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
Sun doesnt give light to the moon assuming
The moons gonna owe it one
Makes me think of how you act to me
You do favors, then rapidly
Just turn around and start askin me about
Things that you want back from me
Im sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you dont understand
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
Maybe someday, Ill be just like you and
Step on people like you do
Run away all the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
Used to be calm, used to be strong
Used to be generous, you shoulda known
That youd wear out your welcome
And now, you see how quiet it is all alone
Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you dont understand
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you dont understand
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
Stay away
I am so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest |

Wait at the turn
Wait-ait-ait
Were building it up
To break it back down
Were building it up
To burn it down
We cant wait
To burn it to the ground
Wait at the turn
Whoa
Were building it up
To break it back down
Were building it up |
I didnt think that I had a debt to pay
Til they came to take what I had left away
You said you wouldnt put me to the test today
But I remember you saying that yesterday
There was a time when your mind wasnt out of control
Every memory and confession pouring out of your soul
Like a pill you couldnt swallow so it swallowed you whole
Another lie hard to follow, it followed you home
And like that
Broken down
A victim of your lies
Fire so out of control
Every memory and confession pouring out of your soul
And like that
Broken down
A victim of your lies
You hide behind lies
You dont know why
You crossed the line
Wrapped up inside your lies
You hide behind lies
Youre lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies
I dont know what you thought I might say
Seems like we never would talk the right way
Every other minute I fought for my place
And drop what I made thought and you might stay so
Im guessing that you probably know
When your insides hollow then you ought to be cold
Like a pill hard to swallow, so it swallowed me whole
Another lie hard to follow, it followed me home
And like that
Broken down
A victim of your lies
You hide behind lies
You dont know why
You crossed the line
Wrapped up inside your lies
You hide behind lies
Youre lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies
Youre faking, youre mistaken
If you think that you could climb out of this hole
Forsaken, what we take when
All our lies come from the power of control
Broken down, a victim of your
Faking, youre mistaken
If you think that you could climb out of this hole
Broken down, a victim of your lies
You hide behind lies
You dont know why
You hide behind lies
You dont know why
You hide behind lies
You dont know why
You hide behind
Wrapped up inside your lies
You hide behind lies
You dont know why
You crossed the line
Wrapped up inside your lies
You hide behind lies
Youre lost inside that cold disguise
Behind your lies |
Yeah, yo
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
And though the words sound steady, something emptys within em
We say Yeah, with fists flying up in the air
Like were holding onto something thats invisible there
Cause were living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it, forget it, let it all disappear
Waiting for the end to come, wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned, its out of my control
Flying at the speed of light, thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid, its hard to let you go
I know what it takes to move on, I know how it feels to lie
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I havent got
Sitting in an empty room, trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last, I wish it wasnt so
I know what it takes to move on, I know how it feels to lie
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I havent got
Yo, yeah
What was left when that fire was gone?
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
Im trying to figure out what its like moving on
And I dont even know what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So, picking up the pieces now, where to begin?
The hardest part of ending is starting again!
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I havent got
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone and the violet rhythm
Though the words sound steady, something emptys within em
We say Yeah, with fists flying up in the air
Like were holding onto something thats invisible there
Cause were living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it, forget it, let it all disappear |
In this farewell
Theres no blood, theres no alibi
Cause Ive drawn regret
From the truth of a thousand lies
So let mercy come and wash away
What Ive done
Ill face myself to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
Put to rest what you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty
So let mercy come and wash away
What Ive done
Ill face myself to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
For what Ive done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
Im forgiving what Ive done
Ill face myself to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
What Ive done
Forgiving what Ive done |
I am a little bit of loneliness, a little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints but I cant help the fact
That everyone can see these scars
I am what I want you to want, what I want you to feel
But its like no matter what I do
I cant convince you to just believe this is real
So I let go, watchin you turn your back
Like you always do, face away and pretend that Im not
But Ill be here cause youre all that I got
I cant feel the way I did before, dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored, time wont heal this damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
I am a little bit insecure, a little unconfident
Cause you dont understand, I do what I can
But sometimes I dont make sense
I am what you never want to say but Ive never
Had a doubt, its like no matter what I do
I cant convince you for once just to hear me out
So I let go, watchin you turn your back
Like you always do, face away and pretend that Im not
But Ill be here cause youre all that I got
I cant feel the way I did before, dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored, time wont heal this damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
No, hear me out now, youre gonna listen to me
Like it or not, right now, hear me out now
Youre gonna listen to me like it or not, right now
I cant feel the way I did before
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
I cant feel the way I did before, dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored, time wont heal this damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored
I cant feel, dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored time wont heal, dont turn your back on me, I wont be ignored |
It goes a one
It goes a one, two, three...
I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun
I don’t need to sweat it when the competition come
Original style like an 808 drum
So I don’t run the track no, I make the track run
My mama taught me words, my dad, he built rockets
I put ’em both together, now tell me what I got, its
A pretty smart weapon, I can shoot it, I can drop it
But learn to respect it ’cause you clearly can’t stop it
Like that
It ain’t over ’cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right
And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite
It really doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or if you’re right
’Cause once you get the teeth in, nothing really fights
Except for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose
And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes
But steady little soldier, I ain’t standing next to you
I’d be laying on the ground before you’re even in my view
Like that
Give me the strength of the rising sun
Give me the truth of the words unsung
And when the last bells ring
The poor men sing
Bring me to kingdom come
This is something for your people on the block to black out and rock to
Give you whatcha need like Poppa, who shot ya
Separate the weak from the obsolete
Youre meek, I creep hard on imposters
And switch styles on a dime, quick witted
Yall quit tripping, I don’t have time for your crying
I grind tough, sucka, make your mind up
Are you in the firing squad or are you in the line-up
Bang bang, little monkey man playing
With the big guns only get you slain
I ain’t playing, I’m just saying
You ain’t gotta sliver of a chance
I get iller, I deliver while you quiver in your pants
So shake shake down, money here’s the break down
You can play the bank, I’mma play the bank take down
And no mistakes now, I’m coming to getcha
I’m just a Banksy, you’re a Brainwash, get the picture
It’s like that
We swim against the rising waves
And crash against the shore
The body bends until it breaks
The early morning sings no more
So rest your head, it’s time to sleep
And dream of what’s in store
The body bends until it breaks
Then sings again no more
’Cause time has torn the flesh away
The early morning sings no more |
The microphone molester, machete undresser
Stupid-dope-fresh type shit resurrector
Top gun, miramar, best-of-the-best-er
The leave-an-MC-peace-in-rest-er
Skill tester, the flex-the-gunner
The make-funner, the adversary make runner
Make summer cold with rhymes I spit
Kick gift to lifted delinquent wit
I be prophet, my rhyme—top it? Stop it
Fly like rocket when I rock it
Lock it down with this perverse verse
Every fucking curse, a burst of hurt
Move crowds; physical fitness rhymes
Coke heads couldnt do my lines
Im decorated like Christmas pines
My battalion rocks
MCs become silhouettes of chalk
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days
Hit the dirt, cause the words I spit
Will do more than just rip your shirt
Ill bitch slap your soul, contact the track control!
Youre coming at me? You cant hack it, though!
So ridiculous, watching my crew get sick of this
Wickedness, pitching this
Lyrical viciousness to crews and cliques
Made of men and mistresses
This is my life, the twilight in the fight night
And trying to see nothing but the highlights
When I write, these eyes on horizons
Die for my song, cry rhymes in krylon
Fire on, move men telekinetically
Esoterically beat-speaking with clarity
Feel my verity, heroism of heresy
And sever every MC I see with severity!
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days
Why not, what I came
Why not, what I came
Why not, what I came
Why not give me what I came to deserve?
Why not give me what I came to believe?
Why not give me what I came to deserve?
Why not give me what I came to believe?
Why?
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days |
Original style like an 808 drum
Original style like an 808 drum
I don’t run the track no, I make the track run
I don’t run the track no, I make the track run
Original style like an 808 drum
Original style like an 808 drum
I don’t run the track no, I make the track run
I don’t run the track no, I make the track run
Like that
Like that
Like that
Drop it like

Like that
Make the track run

Make the track run
Like that
It goes a one, two, three...

I don’t run the track no, I make the track run
Like that
Give me the strength of the rising sun
Give me the truth of the words unsung
And when the last bells ring
The poor men sing
Bring me to kingdom come
Drop it like that
Like that
Like that
Drop it like that
Like that
Make the track run
Like that
Make the track run
Like that
It goes a one, two, three...

Yeah, Green Lantern, Mike Shinoda
Ay yo, Green, tell them the name of the mixtape is
Ha ha! Fort Minor: We Major
Lets go!
Peep the style and the kids checking for it
The number one question is how could you ignore it
We drop right back in the cut
The Evil Genius track and Mikes raps
Got you backing this up like, rewind that
Were just rolling with the rhythm
Rise from the ashes of stylistic division
With these non-stop lyrics of life living
Not to be forgotten but still unforgiven
But in the meantime there are those
Who want to talk this and that so I suppose
That it gets to a point feelings got to get hurt
And get dirty with the people spreading the dirt, its like
Try to give you warning, but everyone ignores me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin with me
But nobodys listening
Call to you so clearly, but you dont want to hear me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin with me
But nobodys listening
I got a heart full of pain, head full of stress
Handful of anger held in my chest
And everything lefts a waste of time
I hate my rhymes but hate everyone elses more
Im riding on the back of this pressure
Guessing that its better I cant keep myself together
Because all of this stress gave me something to ride on
The pain gave me something I could set my sights on
You never forget the blood, sweat, and tears
The uphill struggle over years, the fear and
Trash talking and the people it was to
What up to the Militia and the LPU
Try to give you warning, but everyone ignores me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin with me
But nobodys listening
Call to you so clearly, but you dont want to hear me
I told you niggas now ten times, stop fuckin with me
But nobodys listening
We got a heart full of pain, head full of stress
Nobodys listening
Handful of anger held in my chest
Nobodys listening
Uphill struggle, blood, sweat and tears
Nobodys listening
Yall watch your back, Machine Shop is here
Fort Minor, We Major
We major? Cmon, homie, we major
We major? Cmon, homie, we major
We major! Cmon, homie, we major
We major! Cmon
Lets go! |
We swim against the rising waves
And crash against the shore
The body bends until it breaks
The early morning sings, no more
We swim against the rising waves
And crash against the shore
The body bends until it breaks
Then sings again, no more
The wings have torn the flesh away
The early morning sings, no more
We swim against the rising waves
And crash against the shore
The body bends until it breaks
Then sings again, no more
The wings have torn the flesh away
The early morning sings, no more
Cause time has torn the flesh away
The early morning sings, no more |
Yo...
Watch as the room rocks, mentally moonwalk
Mixed Media slang banging in your boom box
Verbal violence, lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip-hop rhymes are childish
You cant tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rapping to a beat doesnt make you an MC
With your lack of skill and facility, youre killing me
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes
Youre not an MC if someone else writes your lines
Rapping over rock doesnt make you a pioneer
‘Cause rock and hip-hop have collaborated for years
But now theyre getting randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck, and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up? None of its real
You want to be an MC, youve got to study the skill
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!
So, you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally, you dont have the hip hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
Sounding like the only hip hop youve heard is top 40
And your record company is completely missing it
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
So in a battle, you cant hack it, react with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal back flips
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
Its taken decades for MCs to establish this
Youre new to hip-hop, and welcome if your serious
But not on the mic, leave that to the experienced
Using the waves of sound
The true master paralyzes his opponents
Leaving him vulnerable to attack
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up! Step up!
After years of pain-staking research by the worlds leading sound scientists
We here at the sound institute have invented a reliable audio weapons system
Actual movement of musical sound in space used to carefully attack and neutralize the cellular structure of the human body
And the question must be asked…
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!

Like shining oil this night is dripping down
Stars are slipping down, glistening
And Im trying not to think what Im leaving now
No deceiving now
Its time you let me know
Let me know
When the lights go out and we open our eyes
Out there in the silence
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Let the sun fade out and another one rise
Climbing through tomorrow
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
This air between us is getting thinner now
Into winter now, bittersweet
And cross that horizon, this sun is setting down
And youre forgetting now
Its time you let me go
Let me go
When the lights go out and we open our eyes
Out there in the silence
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Let the sun fade out and another one rise
Climbing through tomorrow
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
And tell them I couldnt help myself
And tell them I was alone
Oh, tell me I am the only one
And theres nothing that can stop me
Ill be gone
Ill be gone |
I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When Im done here?
So if youre asking me I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that Ive done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
And dont resent me
And when youre feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Dont be afraid
Ive taken my beating
Ive shed what I made
Im strong on the surface
Not all the way through
Ive never been perfect
But neither have you
So if youre asking me I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that Ive done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Dont resent me
And when youre feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Forgetting
All the hurt inside youve learned to hide so well
Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I cant be who you are
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that Ive done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Dont resent me
And when youre feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Forgetting
All the hurt inside youve learned to hide so well
Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I cant be who you are
I cant be who you are |
I close both locks below the window
I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes solutions arent so simple
Sometimes goodbyes the only way, oh
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in gray
And the sun will set for you
In cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings arent so simple
Sometimes goodbyes the only way, oh
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in gray
And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in gray
And the sun will set for you |
And you dont give a damn about the blood and sweat that I spilled
To make it so Im standing right here
Bet you could bet your soul and your faith in God that I will
Not fold in the face of this fear
Cause I wont be intimidated by you, pushed down and lied to
Im not a fool or a punk
And you could try to bruise me and break me, please dont mistake me
See if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Its something for your people on the block to black out and rock to
Give me what you need like papa, who shot ya
Separate the weak from the obsolete
Youre meek, I creep hard on imposters
And switch styles on the dime, quick witted
Yall quit tripping, I don’t have time for your crying
I grind tough, sucker, make your mind up
Are you in the firing squad or are you in the line-up?
Bang bang, little monkey man
Playing with the big guns only get you slain
I ain’t playing, I’m just saying
You ain’t got a sliver of a chance
I get iller, I deliver while you quiver in your pants
So shake shake down, money, here’s the break down
You can play the bank, I’mma play the bank take down
And no mistakes now, I’m coming to get ya
I’m just a Banksy, you’re a Brainwash
Get the picture? Its like that |
In this farewell
Theres no blood, theres no alibi
Cause Ive drawn regret
From the truth of a thousand lies
So let mercy come and wash away
What Ive done
Ill face myself to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
Put to rest what you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty
So let mercy come and wash away
What Ive done
Ill face myself to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
For what Ive done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
Im forgiving what Ive done
Ill face myself to cross out what Ive become
Erase myself
And let go of what Ive done
What Ive done
Forgiving what Ive done |
Baby, I said baby
Im gonna leave you baby
Im gonna leave you baby
Im gonna tie you up to the railroad tracks
I said baby, I said baby
Im gonna leave you
Im gonna leave you baby
Im gonna tie you up to the railroad tracks
Gonna tie you up to the railroad tracks
Im gonna tie you up
Leave you down there by the railroad tracks
When the train comes by, its gonna take you away
Ooh yeah |
It goes a one, two, three...
I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun
I don’t need to sweat it when a competition come
Original style like an 808 drum
So I don’t run the track, no, I make the track run
My mama taught me words, my daddy built rockets
I put ’em both together, now tell me what I got
Its a pretty smart weapon, I can shoot it, I can drop it
But learn to respect it ’cause you clearly can’t stop it like that
It aint over ’cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right
And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite
It really doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or if you’re right
’Cause once you get the teeth in, nothing really fights
And as for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose
And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes
But steady little soldier, I ain’t standing next to you
I’d be laying on the ground before you’re even in my view, like that |
Are you ready?
Come on!
I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static, and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering Im pretending to be where Im not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
And though youre so close to me
Youre still so distant
And I cant bring you back
Its true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if youre not with me
Im with you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor, the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend that the past isnt real
Now Im trapped in this memory
And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
So even though youre close to me
Youre still so distant
And I cant bring you back
Its true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if youre not with me
Im with you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
No, no matter how far weve come
I cant wait to see tomorrow
No matter how far weve come, I
I cant wait to see tomorrow
With you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes |
I close both locks below the window
I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes solutions arent so simple
Sometimes goodbyes the only way, o-o-oh
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
In cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings arent so simple
Sometimes goodbyes the only way, o-o-oh
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you |
When I pretend everything is what I want it to be
I look exactly like what you always wanted to see
When I pretend, I cant forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second just cause I know I can but
I cant pretend this is the way itll stay Im just
I cant pretend Im who you want me to be, so Im
No no, turning back now
No no, turning back now
No, turning back now
No no, turning back now
I remember what they taught to me
Remember condescending talk for who I ought to be
Remember listening to all of that and this again
So I pretended up a person who was fittin in
And now you think this person really is me and Im
Cause the more I push the more Im pulling away cause Im
No no turning back now
No no turning back now
No turning back now
No no, turning back now
This isnt what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this, this isnt what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this, this isnt what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this, this isnt what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said would have you running from me
Like this
No, turning back now
No no, turning back now
No, turning back now
No no, turning back now |
Sometimes I need to remember just to breathe
Sometimes I need you to stay away from me
Sometimes Im in disbelief, I didnt know
Somehow I need you to go
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just give me myself back and
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just give me myself back and dont stay
Sometimes I feel like I trusted you too well
Sometimes I just feel like screaming at myself
Sometimes Im in disbelief, I didnt know
Somehow I need to be alone
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just give me myself back and
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just give me myself back and dont stay
I dont need you anymore, I dont want to be ignored
I dont need one more day of you wasting me away
I dont need you anymore, I dont want to be ignored
I dont need one more day of you wasting me away
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
What you were changing me into
Just give me myself back and
Dont stay, forget our memories
Forget our possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
Just give me myself back and dont stay
Dont stay
Dont stay |
Turn my mic up louder, I got to say somethin
Lightweights step it aside when we comin
Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumpin
People on the street they panic and start runnin
Words on loose leaf sheet, complete comin
I jump on my mind, I summon the rhyme Im dumpin
Healin the blind, I promise to let the sun in
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drummin
Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumpin
Fuck that, I wanna see some fists pumpin
Risk somethin, take back whats yours
Say somethin that you know they might attack you for
Cause Im sick of being treated like I had before
Like its stupid standin for what Im standin for
Like this wars really just a different brand of war
Like it doesnt cater to rich and abandon poor
Like they understand you, in the back of their jet
When you cant put gas in your tank
And these fuckers are laughin their way to the bank, and cashin their cheque
Askin you to have compassion and have some respect
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way
Stutterin and mumblin for nightly news to replay
And the rest of the world watchin at the end of the day
In the living room laughin like, What did he say?
In my livin room watchin, but I am not laughin
Cause when it gets tense, I know what might happen
The world is cold, the bold men take action
Have to react to get blown into fractions
Ten years old, its somethin to see
Another kid my age drugged under a Jeep
Taken and bound and found later under a tree
I wonder if he had thought the next one could be me
Do you see the soldiers theyre out today
They brush the dust from bulletproof vests away
Its ironic, at times like this youd pray
But a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday
Theres bombs on the buses, bikes, roads
Inside your market, your shops, your clothes
My dad, hes got a lot of fear I know
But enough pride inside not to let that show
My brother had a book he would hold with pride
A little red cover with a broken spine
On the back he hand-wrote a quote inside
When the rich wage war, its the poor who die
Meanwhile, the leader just talks away
Stutterin and mumblin for nightly news to replay
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day
Both scared and angry, like What did he say?
With hands held high into a sky so blue
The ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue
The ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue
The ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue
The ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue
The ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue
The ocean opens up to swallow you |
And you held it all
But you were careless to let it fall
You held it all
And I was by your side
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
And you held it all
But you were careless to let it fall
You held it all
And I was by your side
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless |
And Im taking my time
Im shaping and shaking the rhyme
Like Im staking my claim
Like Im making a bomb
Im making it simple and plain
That Im sick of the game
Sick of the simple and same
I got that reality rap back to the basics
Give me that beat
It is what its got to be
Cause the rhythms an addiction that I got to feed
You could say what you think that it ought to be
And pop lip to your buddies
Just not with me
Okay?
Cause Im heavy with the track drums
Cat with the boom bap back in action
Slap all your crew back to a fraction
Rap like a Wu pack on my back, son
And they do, cause the rep stay solid and true
We ought to be probably stop it fore we do
Something stupid and ridiculous
Looking so sick of this
Moving music to the life and death until your breath is
Gone |

I cannot take this anymore
Saying everything Ive said before
All these words, they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear, the less youll say
Youll find that out anyway
Just like before
Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge
And Im about to break)
I need a little room to breathe
(Cause Im one step closer to the edge
Im about to break)
I find the answers arent so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts, they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before
Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge
And Im about to break)
I need a little room to breathe
(Cause Im one step closer to the edge
Im about to break)
Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge
And Im about to break)
I need a little room to breathe
(Cause Im one step closer to the edge
And Im about to)
Break
Shut up when Im talking to you
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up when Im talking to you
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Im about to break
Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge
And Im about to break)
I need a little room to breathe
(Cause Im one step closer to the edge
Im about to break)
Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge
And Im about to break)
I need a little room to breathe
(Cause Im one step closer to the edge
And Im about to)

Are you lost in your lies?
Do you tell yourself I dont realize
Your crusades a disguise?
Replaced freedom with fear
You trade money for lives
Im aware of what youve done
No, no more sorrow
Ive paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
I see pain, I see need
I see liars and thieves
Abuse power with greed
I had hope, I believed
But Im beginning to think that weve been deceived
You will pay for what youve done!
No, no more sorrow
Ive paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be erased!
Thieves and hypocrites!
Thieves and hypocrites!
Thieves and hypocrites!
No, no more sorrow
Ive paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
No more sorrow
Ive paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be erased! |

Ive lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile
That Ill fake for the sake of being with you
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away?
Why I played myself this way?
Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away
Why I never walked away?

Now I see, youre testing me, pushes me away

Youre sour and sweet
And you stick to my teeth
And you’re shearing the flesh
From right off my mouth beef
By mouth beef I mean tongue
Its a weird thing I sung
But I couldnt think of a good rhyme
Oh Sour Patch Kids
You assault my mouth hole
It’s a full fledged attack
On my teeths enamel
Due to oral bleeding
My gums are receding
Oh boy!
What a wonderful time! |
Steel unload, final blow
We the animals take control
Hear us now, clear and true
Wretches and kings we come for you
To save face, how low can you go
Act like ya heard but yet you dont know
I act like a murderer, Dexter with the flow
They underestimate me, Im killing em on the low
So get down, but you dont really have an option
Shouting at the top of your lungs, please stop it
My Woodstock mixed with some 88 Compton
Lucy in the Sky with a sawed-off shotgun
Stop it, walk into a beat so cold
The rhythm thats created when these guns unload
And no one make a move unless my people say so
Got everything outta control, now everybody go
Occupying, modifying every state in downtown
Gentrifying, simplifying military compounds
Satellite, nanobytes superchip in subhuman Manchurian
Im so Megatron
Steel unload, final blow
We the animals take control
Hear us now, clear and true
Wretches and kings we come for you
Steel unload, fire blow
Filthy animals beat them low
Skin and bone, black and blue
No more this sun shall beat onto you
Tell the people what the truth is, standing in the booth its
A soldier surrounded by his troops bitch
I dont really know just what a truce is but I never call one
Look into the crowd and control like Stalin
Josef, hopeless, so pissed, bottom of the soap dish
Scummy-ass pro-fit, prophet
Semi-automatic in my front coat pocket
Loaded, if anyone opposes Ill pop it
Yeah, now when we hit the blocks
And set them car alarms off like you hear the cops
Everyone stop for a second, just watch
And if you hear them shots, drop
Tweaking up your brainwaves, glitches, rags, riches
Snitches, pipe-dream swishes, it might be suspicious
Any mister or misses that try to go against us
Might get stitches or wiped out of existence
Overseers operate, in and out of the camera
Navigating states in post-race through Gamera
Bottom feeders and eaters, victimizing with heaters
With clever reasons for eating and better means for competing
Futurism contemporary, so very modern
Its as simple as putting memories into body prizms
Anarchist language, mind full of anguish
Internets to slang this, a boom-box to bang this
Boom bye-bye in the muhfucka head
That we manwhan heavy but the nahwan dead
I spew propaganda through these prison camp speakers
Im a grim reaper in a pair of Michael Jordan sneakers
Freedom fighter see cypher killers still as the night go
Ice cold, blood in my veins, brain of a psycho
Manufactured with my soul fractured in half
Divided by my violent side so you add up the math
Im half Elohim, alpha omega, beggar and peasant

Water gray
Through the windows, up the stairs
Chilling rain
Like an ocean everywhere
Dont want to reach for me, do you?
I mean nothing to you
The little things give you away
And now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All youve ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water, I do
Hope decays
Generations disappear
Washed away
As a nation simply stares
Dont want to reach for me, do you?
I mean nothing to you
The little things give you away
But now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All youve ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water, I do
All youve ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet underground, now I, now I do
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away
The little things give you away |
I remembered black skies
The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash
As time began to blur
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
All across this new divide
There was nothing in sight
But memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide
The ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in
Between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
All across this new divide
In every loss
In every lie
In every truth that youd deny
And each regret
And each goodbye
Was a mistake too great to hide
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
All across this new divide
All across this new divide
All across this new divide |
I dont know who to trust, no surprise
Everyone feels so far away from me
Heavy thoughts sift through dust and the lies
Trying not to break
But Im so tired of this deceit
Every time I try to make myself
Get back up on my feet
All I ever think about is this
All the tiring time between
And how trying to put my trust in you
Just takes so much out of me
Take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
Tension is building inside, steadily
Everyone feels so far away from me
Heavy thoughts forcing their way out of me
Trying not to break
But Im so tired of this deceit
Every time I try to make myself
Get back up on my feet
All I ever think about is this
All the tiring time between
And how trying to put my trust in you
Just takes so much out of me
Take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
I wont waste myself on you
You, you
Waste myself on you
You, you
Ill take everything from the inside
And throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
Everything from the inside
And just throw it all away
Cause I swear for the last time
I wont trust myself with you
You, you |
