724,234 | 926,909 | 99 Pounds | pop | 25 lbs. of pure cane sugar
In each and every kiss
You wouldn't know what I'm talking about
If you never had lovin' like this
I don't mean to be brash
Just know it's a natural fact
Good things come in small packages
You'll have to agree to that
99 lbs. of natural born goodness yo
99 lbs. of soul
Now I'm 99 lbs. of natural goodness yo
99 lbs. of soul
25 lbs. of tenderness in each and every touch
25 lbs. of understanding my man
And I don't want me to worry too much
24 lbs of something else that I can't even name
And it all adds up to 99 lbs
All put together in a fine brown frame
And I'm 99 lbs of natural born goodness
99 lbs of soul
Let me tell you now
I'm 99 lbs of natural born goodness |
1,427,949 | 1,952,237 | Psycho 93 Freestyle | rap | [Verse]
I am a monster (Cuzzi a monster)
I went from eating McDonalds to eating this Lobster (straight from the bottom)
My bitch is a Telli, that mean that her daddy a mobster
I know that you heard I got shit going up at my concert (I know that you know it man)
At 22 look at all of the shit I accomplished (you couldn't do this man)
I just hit a lick and you know I got Lantz as accomplice (I just had to do it man)
If I'm the track then you know it's getting demolished (know that I beat it man)
Thank god for the music (Thank god for the music), cause I woulda been kicked outta college (see me on CNN)
Fuck all you niggas for breaking this promise (no don't do that Cuzzi relax)
Pay me your dues when you pay me that homage (pay me in benjamins)
Come to my city, I'll show you it's Gotham (know that I show you man)
Lantz tell me get em, you know that I got em
*Gunshot* |
2,594,166 | 3,812,921 | Chromesthesia | rock | See my dreams within
The vibrant colors of a hollow lens
As my flowers bend
Find a box to keep them in
From another view
I hoped you could've seen me through
I had my vision skewed
But now I see in different hues
New colors dance through me
No longer suffering
It's all just the same as it was before
I'm just a body in the ocean
I can't stop the new motion
Careless freedom in me
I just need to be free
Feel a new breeze, sunlight energy
I found a way through pain and sorrow
To see the light of a better tomorrow
Waves crashing in on me
Shed physical body
It's all just the same as it was before
I'm just a body in the ocean
I can't stop the new motion
Careless freedom in me |
3,020,540 | 4,531,945 | Fall So Hard Acoustic Version | pop | [Verse 1]
Well, I thought I was already home
'Til you came in like a wrecking ball
[Pre-Chorus]
So where do we go, where do we go from here?
When all that we know is nothing at all, my dear
[Chorus]
Never knew that I could fall so
Heavy, when I met you, I never knew I could fall so hard
Make me wanna change for the better because of who you are
Every thing I thought was about me, was always about you
Baby, when I met you, I never knew I could fall so hard
Nеver knew I could fall so ha-ha, ha, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hard
I could fall so ha-ha, ha, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hard
[Verse 2]
Now it creeps in, all my fears for you
For thе first time I got everything to lose
[Pre-Chorus]
So where do we go, where do we go from here?
When all that we know is nothing at all, my dear
[Chorus]
Never knew that I could fall so
Baby, when I met you, I never knew I could fall so hard
Make me wanna change for the better because of who you are
And every thing I thought was about me, was always about you
Baby, when I met you, I never knew I could fall so hard
Never knew I could fall so ha-ha, ha, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hard
I could fall so ha-ha, ha, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hard
[Bridge]
Wherever you go, wherever you go, I'll be there
All that I know is wherever you go, I'll be there
Never knew I could fall so ha-ha, ha, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hard (I never that I could)
I never knew I could fall so ha-ha, ha, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hard
[Chorus]
Never knew that I could fall so
Baby, when I met you, I never knew I could fall so hard
Make me wanna change for the better because of who you are
And every thing I thought was about me, was always about you
Baby, when I met you, I never knew I could fall so hard
Never knew I could fall so |
1,376,071 | 1,873,833 | Birds | pop | [Verse 1]
Say do you really want to know?
Patiently, I let them go
Through my window
[Verse 2]
You light a cigarette, then look at me
Like I was some kind of friend
Someday, I'll confess
Put a light on all my sins
I can't wait no longer
I'll be
Waiting too long
[Pre-Chorus]
Birds sing to my ear
Sing sing
And I won't shed a tear
Baby, give me one more chance
Baby, give me one more chance
[Chorus]
We'll say something nice
When I love you like
Baby, give me one more chance
Baby, give me one more chance
Driving fast got me lost
Did I tell you it's a crush?
I lay the pieces
If there's a change in you
I need to know
Sometimes feelings grow
Time just moves slow
[Pre-Chorus]
Birds sing to my ear
Sing sing
And I won't shed a tear
Baby, give me one more chance
Baby, give me one more chance
[Chorus]
We'll say something nice
When I love you like
Baby, give me one more chance
Baby, give me one more chance
[Bridge]
Put a light on all my sins
I can't wait no longer
Put a light on all my sins
I can't wait no longer
[Outro]
Turn on the lights
Can't you see
Birds you see
From the trees
Turn on the lights
Can't you see
Birds you see
From the trees
Turn on the lights
Can't you see
Birds you see
From the trees
Turn on the lights
Can't you see
Birds you see
From the trees
Turn on the lights |
108,993 | 122,156 | We Run This | rap | [Intro]:
They call this man Motamouth. They call this man Motamouth. They call this man Motamouth. They call this gentleman Motamouth because he has a motor in his mouth
[Verse One] [Copywrite]:
A lot of these dudes get on, put on arrogant acts, forget where they from
Me? I go out of town, forget where I'm at
Of course doors locked, never on they porch
Always hearin' about some shit that they said about me, just never from the source
Most, be subliminal shit, them and they boys get
Don't hide a crackerjack, decoder rings for toys shit
Plus, I'm a pure blood, full Pitt
You're a mix with a bull dog, and a Shih Tzu; bullshit
Leave them roaches in your borough dead, thoroughbred
My main squeeze with horse weaves gives me through head
With the, right hoe I might go for eternity
Bust a nut like I'm psycho ward's security
Jakki!
[Jakki]:
Da Motamouth and I ain't clowin' for shit
You fuck around with me? I'mma fuck around with your bitch
Trained from birth not to give a fuck, how could you trick?
Hate the Earth, one fisticuff, your town's in a ditch
Keep runnin' your mouth, you gon' give me twice the respect
I know these niggas quit talkin' when a knife's to their neck
Time for the best to spit when only demonic forces can see
How can I Satan worship when Satan is worshiping me?
Fuck with voodoo dolls and needles, talk shit and you dead
Fuck a weapon nigga, I'll kill you with a prick to the head
The kid will say, "Black, he an asshole" and it's true
A nigga say I'm wack, beat his ass, you know he a fool
[Hook] [Copywrite]:
We run this, y'all run from us, Columbus
O-Dot, who want it?
"What you want?!"
Who want it? C'mon
We run this, y'all pussy, run on
We run this, y'all run from us, Columbus
O-Dot, who want it?
"What you want?!"
Who want it? C'mon
We run this, y'all pussy, run on
[Verse Two] [Jakki]:
I'm as real as they come, I ain't scared of a soul
If you a king, you gettin' sniped, I'm the heir to the throne
This is my craft, beach MC get in my raft
Beef with me can only be resolved by you kissin' my ass
I'm talkin' to fools
Fuck human beings, deity's
If you in any of these categories, I'm talkin' to you
So don't ask for, battle raps, such a demand
Introducing a cat that'll slap the fuck out his fan
I hate rappers
Many approach
Any I toast, plenty I roast quick cause I'm spittin' my flame fast
I'm sick of these lame bastards with my name in they mouth
They close to home, give it back or I'm yanking it out your pie hole
[Copywrite]:
The C.O. pyro, I don't need no dial
This hydro got me so I high I can see Ohio from Cairo
Oh, and I brought my dude with me
Not these fake fucks, he's one of the few still cool with me
I
Mean that with the deepest sincerity
Eatin' chicken for a week and she'll be seekin' some therapy
Since '91 when we first started, verse parted the sea
? leaving your church starting the keys
We here now
Sure y'all want games with Ohio Finest, minus Lebron James on stage
No need to hand me that liquor
To cut the breaks on all your candy act vigor
And have you parking with a handicap sticker
Ya bitches
[Hook] [Copywrite]:
We run this, y'all run from us, Columbus
O-Dot, who want it?
"What you want?!"
Who want it? C'mon
We run this, y'all pussy, run on
We run this, y'all run from us, Columbus
O-Dot, who want it?
"What you want?!"
Who want it? C'mon
We run this, y'all pussy, run on |
2,522,439 | 3,691,275 | Confessions Of Crabman | rock | All my life
I have not been accepted
An outcast, an alien
Didn’t wanna do it
But they left me no choice
Pushed too far, lost my mind
My exoskeleton can take the beatings
But it hurts so much inside
Hide my tail under my thorax
But I might go out and kill tonight
Killed a man
With my bare claws
Used his flesh for vindaloo
Now my kids
Are playing with his bones
And use his skin for drawing too
I never thought it’d come to this
Cut off his head and slit his wrists
By Carcinus, what have I done
But there’s only so much a crab
Can take before he fuckin’ snaps
He started it and then I won
This must remain a secret
One that I’ll take to the grave
I’ll get the chair for this one
My family will be enslaved
I just gotta smile and walk away
I cross the street sideways
Change my shell because I can
Accept the fact, I’m not a humanoid
But more than once I’ve killed a man |
104,129 | 116,586 | The Purist | misc | I give you now Professor Twist
A conscientious scientist
Trustees exclaimed, "He never bungles!"
And sent him off to distant jungles
Camped on a tropic riverside
One day he missed his loving bride
She had, the guide informed him later
Been eaten by an alligator
Professor Twist could not but smile
"You mean," he said, "a crocodile." |
1,710,841 | 2,384,242 | Betta Duck New York Straight Talk: The Elusive Demos 1994-1995 EP Version | rap | Mr. Voodoo - “Betta Duck (New York Straight Talk: The Elusive Demos 1994-1995 EP Version)”
[Emcee(s): Mr. Voodoo]
[Producer(s): Charlemagne]
[Scratches: Charlemagne]
[Intro: Mr. Voodoo]
Uh huh, yeah. ‘Bout to get on some lyrical shit right here, let these niggas know. Hip Hop Quotable shit, know what I mean? Check it out
[Verse 1: Mr. Voodoo]
When I
Appear, it’s a moment of fright. This ain’t open mic
But everybody gonna see a moment of light. To the
Last moment of life, to the last moment I fight while y’all like
Gary Coleman: old men that ain’t grow right. My flow
Like snow white—you could sniff the ‘caine. Rhyming
Or shifting ‘caine? Same game, different game. Used
To live in castles, now we hustle in gates. Used
To sit on thrones, now we sitting on milk crates, got
Burners and eights, blocks, corners, and gates
Murders and rapes, cops, coroners, and yellow tapes
Niggas getting locked up, and they turn to snakes—forget
About it. I’m with whatever’s earning the papes, trapped by
Materialism, rap with imperial wisdom
Ain’t concerned with the crap in your stereo system
Catching fire violations when my words start to spill
And you know I blaze shit like Fire Marshall Bill
[Hook: Samples with Scratches by Charlemagne]
“What I’ma hit you with, you motherfuckers better duck” - Sample from The Notorious B.I.G. - “Warning” (x4)
[Verse 2: Mr. Voodoo]
I drop
Gems that’s flawless, verse
To chorus coerced by thoughts that’s lawless. Fuck flow
You got to call this pollution ‘cause every rhyme
You hear me spit put grime in the air. I’m trying
To start a crime scare while y’all fools turn “Adults
Only” to “Kids Only” like Times Square—not me
It’s purely maturity themes
Desert Eagles screams, you’re calling your security team. When I clap
The strays depart and graze your heart, leave you
With wings and a halo, playing a harp. You know
I keep the rifle hot, niggas want a title shot. On the
Entitled, tools are shot in a vital spot
‘Til my rivals drop, I’m blasting niggas like a trifling cop
Make you ask, “When do the cycle stop?”
Trife since I began life in a placenta
And I stay in a cypher like a Five-Percenter
[Hook: Samples with Scratches by Charlemagne]
“What I’ma hit you with, you motherfuckers better duck” - Sample from The Notorious B.I.G. - “Warning” (x4)
[Verse 3: Mr. Voodoo]
Allow me to propose a toast. I don’t pop toast
To sip. I pop toast to hit shot close to hip, stay behind
The irony mass like The Man in the Iron Mask
Taking mine—I ain’t trying to ask
Taking mine, you can lie in a cask, stuck where demons dwell
Buck and see men yell. Fuck¸ the semen swell. Niggas better
Duck when they see them shells from the problem-solver
I handle the 9-iron like a golfer, transform
Like water, baking soda, coke firing up in a pot
Win the war and ain’t fire a shot, conspire
And plot. Niggas, better grab your tools
‘Cause we can war forever like we’re Arabs and Jews. Agu
Be detonating the mags, leave you in
A hospital, laid-up, defecating in bags
I’m from Brooklyn, the home of the snakes, wheelchairs
Comas and wakes, pulling out chrome on the face

1,945,424 | 2,743,840 | I Am Above | rock | [Verse 1]
Cut my throat and throw me to the wolves
I'm just too tired, too tired to reload
Don’t need your tears, I don't need your love
Don't need your sympathy, I am above
I’ll be the ghost that haunts you in your sleep
You have anchored the hate in me
Don't need your tears, I don't need your love
Don't need your sympathy, I am above
[Chorus]
My God, I don't need you
I won't wait for you to come around
My God, as the pain inflates
I know I bleed, I bleed for you
[Post-Chorus]
We will never be, you aren't close to me
This is the feeling that I have been waiting for
[Verse 2]
Maybe it, just maybe it takes time to sink in
Did you not hear me loud and clear?
Don't need your tears, I don’t need your love
Don’t need your sympathy, I am above
[Chorus]
My God, I don't need you
I won’t wait for you to come around
My God, as the pain inflates
I know I bleed, I bleed for you
[Post-Chorus]
We will never be, you aren't close to me
This is the feeling that I have been waiting for
We will never be, you aren't close to me
This is the feeling that I have been waiting for
[Chorus]
My God, I don't need you
I won’t wait for you to come around
My God, as the pain inflates
I know I bleed, I bleed for you
[Post-Chorus]
We will never be, (you) aren't close to me
This is the feeling that I have been waiting for
We will never be, (you) aren't close to me
This is the feeling that I have been waiting for
[Outro]
This is the feeling that I have been waiting for
Don't need your tears, I don't need your love
This is the feeling that I have been waiting for
Don't need your sympathy, I am above |
2,420,434 | 3,517,802 | I Wont Lie | rock | Well I guess that you didn’t have to stay
In all the places that I’d run away from
Far behind is where I seem to be
Until you find what you need
She said babe I wanna know what’s in your head, But I don’t wanna put us through all that just yet
I didn’t want to
Waste all of your time
If I don’t have to lie
I won’t lie
There are times when I don’t know how to try for you, won’t someone tell me why?
Three days have gone and when they came
Our time could never be the same
I didn’t want to
Waste all of your time
If I don’t have to lie
I won’t lie
I won’t lie
I won’t lie
I didn’t want to
Waste all of your time
If I don’t have to lie
I won’t lie |
1,144,055 | 1,492,386 | Say Hello Wave Goodbye | pop | Standing at the door of the pink flamingo, crying in the rain
It was a kind of so-so love, and i'm gonna make sure it never happens again
You and i, it had to be the, standing joke of the year
You were a sleeparound, a lost-and-found and not for me i fear
I tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt, and me in a suit, well it just wasn't me
You're used to wearing less, and now your life's a mess, so insecure you see
I put up with all the scenes, and this is one scene that`s gonna be played my way
Take your hands, off me
I don't belong, to you, you see
Take a look, at my face for the last time
I never knew you, you never knew me
Say hello, goodbye
Say hello, wave goodbye
Under the deep red light, i can see the make-up sliding down
Hey little girl, you will always make-up, so take off that unbecoming frown
What about me, well, i'll find someone, that's not going cheap in the sales
A nice little housewife, who'll give me a steady life, and won't keep going off the rails
Take your hands, off me
I don't belong, to you, you see
Take a look, at my face for the last time
I never knew you, you never knew me
Say hello, goodbye
Say hello, wave goodbye
We've been involved for, quite a while now, and to keep you a secret, it has been hell
We're strangers, meeting for the first time, ok? Just smile and say hello...
Say hello then wave goodbye
Say hello then wave goodbye
Say hello then wave goodbye
Say hello then wave goodbye
Say hello, wave goodbye
Say hello then wave goodbye
Say hello, wave goodbye
Goodbye... |

Doomsday...

Beyond the last breath of the age
The only path for heaven

Where will we find a haven?

A bloody thunder will come from the past...

1,318,187 | 1,790,429 | London Bridge | rb | [Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
I don't mean to sound hysterical
But baby if you left, baby if you left
It'll be a historical disaster
The kids will sing about it swear the kids will sing about it
Like the London Bridge is falling down
London Bridge, London Bridge
Like the London Bridge is falling down
Falling down, falling down
[Refrain: Jhené Aiko]
I heard everything must come to an end
Well hopefully the end ain't near
Or for that matter even clear
The only thing that matters is right here
Like the sky, the sun, the waterfalls
I decide when I'm gon' fall
I can't tell you everything I don't know
Oh baby I can't tell you everything I don't know
[Chorus: Jhené Aiko & Big Sean]
I don't mean to sound hysterical
But baby if you left, baby if you left
It'll be a historical disaster
The kids will sing about it, swear the kids will sing about it
Like the London Bridge is falling down
London Bridge, London Bridge
Like the London Bridge is falling down
Falling down, falling down
London bridge is falling down, that's what it would be without you
[Refrain: Jhené Aiko]
I know everything that starts has an end
Well hopefully the end ain't near
Or for that matter even clear
The only thing that matters is right here
Like the stars, the moon, the waterfalls
I decide when I'm gon' fall
I can't tell you everything I don't know
Oh baby I can't tell you everything I don't know

Like the London Bridge is falling down
London Bridge, London Bridge
Like the London Bridge is falling down
Falling down, falling down
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
Who would have ever thought that we would fall like London bridges
I know you heard the rumors about me lies and superstitions
Heard but ain't choose to listen that’s what made you different
And you keep me driven guess that’s why I could see us going the distance
On nights you text and text and text with no auto corrections
Misspelling every other word but I still got the message
And you get carried away like you wearing wedding dresses
I'm sorry I even ever gave you reasons to question
Cause you make me feel like the chosen one
Eight billion people in the world and I still chose the one
Answer this question and I'll answer what you asking me
What happened if we got in an accident died tragically
And next lifetime you remembered and had to come after me
And convinced me that we not meant to be that have to be
And like the defending champs you had to win it all back for me
Just got to know how deep is our love actually
What if this was the end and we had to bow out together
I need you to tell me every emotion like now or never
Only two times I ever needed you was now and forever
Don't know what else to tell you
[Chorus: Jhené Aiko & Big Sean]
But I don't mean to sound hysterical
But baby if you left, baby if you left
It'll be a historical disaster
The kids will sing about it, swear the kids will sing about it
Like the London Bridge is falling down
London Bridge, London Bridge
Like the London Bridge is falling down
Falling down, falling down |
1,245,078 | 1,677,272 | Fireworks | pop | It’s hard to be living
You gotta play the cards you were given
You think it’s simple but it goddamn isn’t
It’s tougher now than breaking out of Shawshank prison
And as you’re hittin your prime
People say you been committing a crime
But I won’t quit till I’m home
I’ll chip the limestone a bit at a time
Wait! I’m a pale ass pale middle-class straight white male
I won’t have an alibi the day I fail
'Cause if I ever went to jail, Mom would pay my bail
In a [boom-boom] heartbeat
Mom and Dad have given me a lot more than a pat on the back
And I gotta thank ‘em for loving me
From the moment I was strapped in a Volvo car seat
When I needed a pep talk
I couldn’t remember to wreck shop
Writer’s block, staring at my laptop desktop
Or sleeping in my rental in a turnpike rest stop
Shit in storage, living from a suitcase
Thinking “this is how a silver spoon tastes?”
'Cause you can make a dream possible
But it’ll never be easy, no matter what you chase
If you wanna poke fun then do so
I’ll do it for you, it’s no crime
I’m like if the dude from Juno grew a Jewfro and liked to rhyme [Ooooooohhh!!!]
So tell me that I’m not a rapper
Tell Rudolph he can’t pull sleighs
Tell pluto it’s not a planet
And he’ll probably keep spinning in the same old way
On and on, every day
Right around the sun, wanna feel the rays
You do it ‘cause you love it like nothing else in the universe
And fuck it, it’s embedded in your DNA |
2,746,397 | 4,060,603 | Wolves | rock | When we lost
I saw you cutting out the parts you don't want
I felt you stepping over lines that we'd drawn
Power from secrets, god I thought you'd know
I watched you guarding all your activism
Mistaking glory for conviction
We came to tell you that your war is not won
And that your cover is blown
Gone
Wolves dressed as sheep dressed as wolves
Run
Demons spill out of the halls
And had they not smelled the blood
We could have been safe by now
It's all gone
It's all gone
Una mattina, mi son svegliato
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Una mattina, mi son svegliato
E ho trovato l'invasor
O partigiano, porta mi via
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
O partigiano, porta mi via
Che mi sento di morir
I saw you cutting out the parts you don't want
I felt you stepping over lines that we'd drawn
When you were haunted by the thought that we'd lost
And all your secrets were nothing at all
I saw you cutting out the parts you don't want
I felt you stepping over lines that we'd drawn
When you were haunted by the thought that we'd lost
And all your secrets were nothing at all
So tell me how does that compare to all my love?
So tell me how does that compare to all my love?
So tell me how does that compare to all my love?
E se io muoio da partigiano
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
E se io muoio da partigiano
Tu mi devi seppellir |

You were sent down to the world
To teach us how to live
A mercy for us all
Our blessing, our gift
Like the morning sun you rose
With a message that would lift
This world from darkness oh you brought us out of it
[Pre-hook]
Cause the more I get to know
The more I learn to live
Wish that I can be somebody that can live just like you did
And now that I know, my life's been such a bliss
I promise that I'll always keep on doing what you did

Wanna be someone just like this...
[Verse 2]
You could’ve had the world, but you left it where it is
A beacon full of hope, to the orphans you would give
Before you had to go, you left us with one wish
That we would see the truth and follow it
[Pre-hook]
And the more I get to know
The more I learn to live
Wish that I can be somebody that can live just like you did
And now that I know, my life's forever changed
I promise that I'll always keep doing what you did

The more I’ve learnt to love
All those 23 years
You taught us to be kind and to love
And now that I know, my life’s forever changed
I pray that I can carry on doing what you did
[Hook]
Lord make me someone just like this

Your head is a weathered home
Your heart is a head alone
It’s waiting on your phone
Breathing again
Your heart is next to me
Your heart is next to me
[Verse 1: Elkkle]
You know I think you’re special
I know you got your schedules running you down
You fall down from my shoulders
You got me wishing I was older for you now
Your nights alone
Your left sold cold
Now where he gone?
He’s in your tone
You know I’m low
You know I know

[Verse 2: Mallrat]
Follow me round like super famous
Used to be best friends pure & painless
Now we say hi it feels like strangers
You're hurting my smile like new retainers
Getting so cruel so quick, making me sick
Make it so hard to make anything stick and I
Knew you like two years back and you
Say you've changed but I changed
Living in a hotel, secrets that I won't tell
I know the city so well, oh well
Maybe only Northside, I just need some more time
You just need some downtime
But I still look for good intentions at
Every social intersection
Really seems like growing up is showing up and throwing up
Now that I consider it, I might be too considerate like
[Chorus: Elkkle and Mallrat]
Darling I can’t see under skin
Your head is a weathered home
Your heart is a head alone
It’s waiting on your phone
Breathing again
Your heart is next to me
Your heart is next to me
It's waiting on your phone |

1,032,717 | 1,331,941 | What Do I Know | pop | [Verse 1]
I have a friend who just turned eighty-eight
And she just shared with me that she's afraid of dying
I sit here years from her experience
And try to bring her comfort, I try to bring her comfort
But what do I know?
What do I know?
[Verse 2]
She grew up singin' 'bout the glory land
And she would testify how Jesus changed her life
It was easy to have faith when she was thirty-four
But now her friends are dying, and death is at her door
And what do I know?
What do I know?
[Chorus]
Well, I don't know that there are harps in Heaven
Or the process for earning your wings
And I don't know of bright lights at the ends of tunnels
Or any of these things
[Verse 3]
She lost her husband after sixty years
And as he slipped away, she still had things to say
Death can be so inconvenient
You try to live and love, it comes and interrupts
And what do I know?
What do I know?
[Chorus]
Well, I don't know that there are harps in Heaven
Or the process for earning your wings
And I don't know of bright lights at the ends of tunnels
Or any of those things

And I don't know of bright lights at the ends of tunnels

Is to be present with the Lord
And from what I know of Him
That must be pretty good
Oh, I know to be absent from this body

And from what I know of Him
That must be very good

Pathway through the green
Shrouded in the woven
Branches of the wood
Clutching fallen canes
Dead from the living trees
My joy unbound
Blood from the past
He and I
On the silent path
This is
The way we know
We go on
Dense and narrow
Barred by branches
Wrought in tangled webs
A seamless tapestry
Of leaves
And so it comes to pass
We go our separate ways
Solitary course
To a place of rest
Crashing through the calm thick green
This is the way, the only way
Hard and coarse is the path to
Our place of rest |

Just so I could make it

Now I'm truly jaded
Thought you was always just down for the ride
How could you not say it

Draw the pack and get it back, we went way too far
Xanny bars and Goyard in the shopping cart

As thе fire grows
We'll start a-singin'
‘Rejoicе my dear, before it's dark'

Some solemn vigil to recognize

142,212 | 159,512 | The Odyssey Book 17 | misc | Telemachus And His Mother Meet—Ulysses And Eumaeus Come Down To The Town, And Ulysses Is Insulted By Melanthius—He Is Recognised By The Dog Argos—He Is Insulted And Presently Struck By Antinous With A Stool—Penelope Desires That He Shall Be Sent To Her
When the child of morning, rosy-fingered Dawn, appeared, Telemachus bound on his sandals and took a strong spear that suited his hands, for he wanted to go into the city. "Old friend," said he to the swineherd,"I will now go to the town and show myself to my mother, for she will never leave off grieving till she has seen me. As for this unfortunate stranger, take him to the town and let him beg there of any one who will give him a drink and a piece of bread. I have trouble enough of my own, and cannot be burdened with other people. If this makes him angry so much the worse for him, but I like to say what I mean."
Then Ulysses said, "Sir, I do not want to stay here; a beggar can always do better in town than country, for any one who likes can give him something. I am too old to care about remaining here at the beck and call of a master. Therefore let this man do as you have just told him, and take me to the town as soon as I have had a warm by the fire, and the day has got a little heat in it. My clothes are wretchedly thin, and this frosty morning I shall be perished with cold, for you say the city is some way off."
On this Telemachus strode off through the yards, brooding his revenge upon the suitors. When he reached home he stood his spear against a bearing-post of the cloister, crossed the stone floor of the cloister itself, and went inside.
Nurse Euryclea saw him long before any one else did. She was putting the fleeces on to the seats, and she burst out crying as she ran up to him; all the other maids came up too, and covered his head and shoulders with their kisses. Penelope came out of her room looking like Diana or Venus, and wept as she flung her arms about her son. She kissed his forehead and both his beautiful eyes, "Light of my eyes," she cried as she spoke fondly to him, "so you are come home again; I made sure I was never going to see you any more. To think of your having gone off to Pylos without saying anything about it or obtaining my consent. But come, tell me what you saw."
"Do not scold me, mother," answered Telemachus, "nor vex me, seeing what a narrow escape I have had, but wash your face, change your dress, go upstairs with your maids, and promise full and sufficient hecatombs to all the gods if Jove will only grant us our revenge upon the suitors. I must now go to the place of assembly to invite a stranger who has come back with me from Pylos. I sent him on with my crew, and told Piraeus to take him home and look after him till I could come for him myself."
She heeded her son's words, washed her face, changed her dress, and vowed full and sufficient hecatombs to all the gods if they would only vouchsafe her revenge upon the suitors.
Telemachus went through, and out of, the cloisters spear in hand—not alone, for his two fleet dogs went with him. Minerva endowed him with a presence of such divine comeliness that all marvelled at him as he went by, and the suitors gathered round him with fair words in their mouths and malice in their hearts; but he avoided them, and went to sit with Mentor, Antiphus, and Halitherses, old friends of his father's house, and they made him tell them all that had happened to him. Then Piraeus came up with Theoclymenus, whom he had escorted through the town to the place of assembly, whereon Telemachus at once joined them. Piraeus was first to speak: "Telemachus," said he, "I wish you would send some of your women to my house to take away the presents Menelaus gave you."
"We do not know, Piraeus," answered Telemachus, "what may happen. If the suitors kill me in my own house and divide my property among them, I would rather you had the presents than that any of those people should get hold of them. If on the other hand I managed to kill them, I shall be much obliged if you will kindly bring me my presents."
With these words he took Theoclymenus to his own house. When they got there they laid their cloaks on the benches and seats, went into the baths, and washed themselves. When the maids had washed and anointed them, and had given them cloaks and shirts, they took their seats at table. A maid servant then brought them water in a beautiful golden ewer, and poured it into a silver basin for them to wash their hands; and she drew a clean table beside them. An upper servant brought them bread and offered them many good things of what there was in the house. Opposite them sat Penelope, reclining on a couch by one of the bearing-posts of the cloister, and spinning. Then they laid their hands on the good things that were before them, and as soon as they had had enough to eat and drink Penelope said:
"Telemachus, I shall go upstairs and lie down on that sad couch, which I have not ceased to water with my tears, from the day Ulysses set out for Troy with the sons of Atreus. You failed, however, to make it clear to me before the suitors came back to the house, whether or no you had been able to hear anything about the return of your father."
"I will tell you then truth," replied her son. "We went to Pylos and saw Nestor, who took me to his house and treated me as hospitably as though I were a son of his own who had just returned after a long absence; so also did his sons; but he said he had not heard a word from any human being about Ulysses, whether he was alive or dead. He sent me, therefore, with a chariot and horses to Menelaus. There I saw Helen, for whose sake so many, both Argives and Trojans, were in heaven's wisdom doomed to suffer. Menelaus asked me what it was that had brought me to Lacedaemon, and I told him the whole truth, whereon he said, 'So, then, these cowards would usurp a brave man's bed? A hind might as well lay her new-born young in the lair of a lion, and then go off to feed in the forest or in some grassy dell. The lion, when he comes back to his lair, will make short work with the pair of them, and so will Ulysses with these suitors. By father Jove, Minerva, and Apollo, if Ulysses is still the man that he was when he wrestled with Philomeleides in Lesbos, and threw him so heavily that all the Greeks cheered him—if he is still such, and were to come near these suitors, they would have a short shrift and a sorry wedding. As regards your question, however, I will not prevaricate nor deceive you, but what the old man of the sea told me, so much will I tell you in full. He said he could see Ulysses on an island sorrowing bitterly in the house of the nymph Calypso, who was keeping him prisoner, and he could not reach his home, for he had no ships nor sailors to take him over the sea.' This was what Menelaus told me, and when I had heard his story I came away; the gods then gave me a fair wind and soon brought me safe home again."
With these words he moved the heart of Penelope. Then Theoclymenus said to her:
"Madam, wife of Ulysses, Telemachus does not understand these things; listen therefore to me, for I can divine them surely, and will hide nothing from you. May Jove the king of heaven be my witness, and the rites of hospitality, with that hearth of Ulysses to which I now come, that Ulysses himself is even now in Ithaca, and, either going about the country or staying in one place, is enquiring into all these evil deeds and preparing a day of reckoning for the suitors. I saw an omen when I was on the ship which meant this, and I told Telemachus about it."
"May it be even so," answered Penelope; "if your words come true, you shall have such gifts and such good will from me that all who see you shall congratulate you."
Thus did they converse. Meanwhile the suitors were throwing discs, or aiming with spears at a mark on the levelled ground in front of the house, and behaving with all their old insolence. But when it was now time for dinner, and the flock of sheep and goats had come into the town from all the country round, 140 with their shepherds as usual, then Medon, who was their favourite servant, and who waited upon them at table, said, "Now then, my young masters, you have had enough sport, so come inside that we may get dinner ready. Dinner is not a bad thing, at dinner time."
They left their sports as he told them, and when they were within the house, they laid their cloaks on the benches and seats inside, and then sacrificed some sheep, goats, pigs, and a heifer, all of them fat and well grown. 141 Thus they made ready for their meal. In the meantime Ulysses and the swineherd were about starting for the town, and the swineherd said, "Stranger, I suppose you still want to go to town to-day, as my master said you were to do; for my own part I should have liked you to stay here as a station hand, but I must do as my master tells me, or he will scold me later on, and a scolding from one's master is a very serious thing. Let us then be off, for it is now broad day; it will be night again directly and then you will find it colder." 142
"I know, and understand you," replied Ulysses; "you need say no more. Let us be going, but if you have a stick ready cut, let me have it to walk with, for you say the road is a very rough one."
As he spoke he threw his shabby old tattered wallet over his shoulders, by the cord from which it hung, and Eumaeus gave him a stick to his liking. The two then started, leaving the station in charge of the dogs and herdsmen who remained behind; the swineherd led the way and his master followed after, looking like some broken down old tramp as he leaned upon his staff, and his clothes were all in rags. When they had got over the rough steep ground and were nearing the city, they reached the fountain from which the citizens drew their water. This had been made by Ithacus, Neritus, and Polyctor. There was a grove of water-loving poplars planted in a circle all round it, and the clear cold water came down to it from a rock high up, 143 while above the fountain there was an altar to the nymphs, at which all wayfarers used to sacrifice. Here Melanthius son of Dolius overtook them as he was driving down some goats, the best in his flock, for the suitors' dinner, and there were two shepherds with him. When he saw Eumaeus and Ulysses he reviled them with outrageous and unseemly language, which made Ulysses very angry.
"There you go," cried he, "and a precious pair you are. See how heaven brings birds of the same feather to one another. Where, pray, master swineherd, are you taking this poor miserable object? It would make any one sick to see such a creature at table. A fellow like this never won a prize for anything in his life, but will go about rubbing his shoulders against every man's door post, and begging, not for swords and cauldrons 144 like a man, but only for a few scraps not worth begging for. If you would give him to me for a hand on my station, he might do to clean out the folds, or bring a bit of sweet feed to the kids, and he could fatten his thighs as much as he pleased on whey; but he has taken to bad ways and will not go about any kind of work; he will do nothing but beg victuals all the town over, to feed his insatiable belly. I say, therefore—and it shall surely be—if he goes near Ulysses' house he will get his head broken by the stools they will fling at him, till they turn him out."
On this, as he passed, he gave Ulysses a kick on the hip out of pure wantonness, but Ulysses stood firm, and did not budge from the path. For a moment he doubted whether or no to fly at Melanthius and kill him with his staff, or fling him to the ground and beat his brains out; he resolved, however, to endure it and keep himself in check, but the swineherd looked straight at Melanthius and rebuked him, lifting up his hands and praying to heaven as he did so.
"Fountain nymphs," he cried, "children of Jove, if ever Ulysses burned you thigh bones covered with fat whether of lambs or kids, grant my prayer that heaven may send him home. He would soon put an end to the swaggering threats with which such men as you go about insulting people—gadding all over the town while your flocks are going to ruin through bad shepherding."
Then Melanthius the goatherd answered, "You ill conditioned cur, what are you talking about? Some day or other I will put you on board ship and take you to a foreign country, where I can sell you and pocket the money you will fetch. I wish I were as sure that Apollo would strike Telemachus dead this very day, or that the suitors would kill him, as I am that Ulysses will never come home again."
With this he left them to come on at their leisure, while he went quickly forward and soon reached the house of his master. When he got there he went in and took his seat among the suitors opposite Eurymachus, who liked him better than any of the others. The servants brought him a portion of meat, and an upper woman servant set bread before him that he might eat. Presently Ulysses and the swineherd came up to the house and stood by it, amid a sound of music, for Phemius was just beginning to sing to the suitors. Then Ulysses took hold of the swineherd's hand, and said:
"Eumaeus, this house of Ulysses is a very fine place. No matter how far you go, you will find few like it. One building keeps following on after another. The outer court has a wall with battlements all round it; the doors are double folding, and of good workmanship; it would be a hard matter to take it by force of arms. I perceive, too, that there are many people banqueting within it, for there is a smell of roast meat, and I hear a sound of music, which the gods have made to go along with feasting."
Then Eumaeus said, "You have perceived aright, as indeed you generally do; but let us think what will be our best course. Will you go inside first and join the suitors, leaving me here behind you, or will you wait here and let me go in first? But do not wait long, or some one may see you loitering about outside, and throw something at you. Consider this matter I pray you."
And Ulysses answered, "I understand and heed. Go in first and leave me here where I am. I am quite used to being beaten and having things thrown at me. I have been so much buffeted about in war and by sea that I am case-hardened, and this too may go with the rest. But a man cannot hide away the cravings of a hungry belly; this is an enemy which gives much trouble to all men; it is because of this that ships are fitted out to sail the seas, and to make war upon other people."
As they were thus talking, a dog that had been lying asleep raised his head and pricked up his ears. This was Argos, whom Ulysses had bred before setting out for Troy, but he had never had any work out of him. In the old days he used to be taken out by the young men when they went hunting wild goats, or deer, or hares, but now that his master was gone he was lying neglected on the heaps of mule and cow dung that lay in front of the stable doors till the men should come and draw it away to manure the great close; and he was full of fleas. As soon as he saw Ulysses standing there, he dropped his ears and wagged his tail, but he could not get close up to his master. When Ulysses saw the dog on the other side of the yard, he dashed a tear from his eyes without Eumaeus seeing it, and said:
"Eumaeus, what a noble hound that is over yonder on the manure heap: his build is splendid; is he as fine a fellow as he looks, or is he only one of those dogs that come begging about a table, and are kept merely for show?"
"This hound," answered Eumaeus, "belonged to him who has died in a far country. If he were what he was when Ulysses left for Troy, he would soon show you what he could do. There was not a wild beast in the forest that could get away from him when he was once on its tracks. But now he has fallen on evil times, for his master is dead and gone, and the women take no care of him. Servants never do their work when their master's hand is no longer over them, for Jove takes half the goodness out of a man when he makes a slave of him."
As he spoke he went inside the buildings to the cloister where the suitors were, but Argos died as soon as he had recognised his master.
Telemachus saw Eumaeus long before any one else did, and beckoned him to come and sit beside him; so he looked about and saw a seat lying near where the carver sat serving out their portions to the suitors; he picked it up, brought it to Telemachus's table, and sat down opposite him. Then the servant brought him his portion, and gave him bread from the bread-basket.
Immediately afterwards Ulysses came inside, looking like a poor miserable old beggar, leaning on his staff and with his clothes all in rags. He sat down upon the threshold of ash-wood just inside the doors leading from the outer to the inner court, and against a bearing-post of cypress-wood which the carpenter had skilfully planed, and had made to join truly with rule and line. Telemachus took a whole loaf from the bread-basket, with as much meat as he could hold in his two hands, and said to Eumaeus, "Take this to the stranger, and tell him to go the round of the suitors, and beg from them; a beggar must not be shamefaced."
So Eumaeus went up to him and said, "Stranger, Telemachus sends you this, and says you are to go the round of the suitors begging, for beggars must not be shamefaced."
Ulysses answered, "May King Jove grant all happiness to Telemachus, and fulfil the desire of his heart."
Then with both hands he took what Telemachus had sent him, and laid it on the dirty old wallet at his feet. He went on eating it while the bard was singing, and had just finished his dinner as he left off. The suitors applauded the bard, whereon Minerva went up to Ulysses and prompted him to beg pieces of bread from each one of the suitors, that he might see what kind of people they were, and tell the good from the bad; but come what might she was not going to save a single one of them. Ulysses, therefore, went on his round, going from left to right, and stretched out his hands to beg as though he were a real beggar. Some of them pitied him, and were curious about him, asking one another who he was and where he came from; whereon the goatherd Melanthius said, "Suitors of my noble mistress, I can tell you something about him, for I have seen him before. The swineherd brought him here, but I know nothing about the man himself, nor where he comes from."
On this Antinous began to abuse the swineherd. "You precious idiot," he cried, "what have you brought this man to town for? Have we not tramps and beggars enough already to pester us as we sit at meat? Do you think it a small thing that such people gather here to waste your master's property—and must you needs bring this man as well?"
And Eumaeus answered, "Antinous, your birth is good but your words evil. It was no doing of mine that he came here. Who is likely to invite a stranger from a foreign country, unless it be one of those who can do public service as a seer, a healer of hurts, a carpenter, or a bard who can charm us with his singing? Such men are welcome all the world over, but no one is likely to ask a beggar who will only worry him. You are always harder on Ulysses' servants than any of the other suitors are, and above all on me, but I do not care so long as Telemachus and Penelope are alive and here."
But Telemachus said, "Hush, do not answer him; Antinous has the bitterest tongue of all the suitors, and he makes the others worse."
Then turning to Antinous he said, "Antinous, you take as much care of my interests as though I were your son. Why should you want to see this stranger turned out of the house? Heaven forbid; take something and give it him yourself; I do not grudge it; I bid you take it. Never mind my mother, nor any of the other servants in the house; but I know you will not do what I say, for you are more fond of eating things yourself than of giving them to other people."
"What do you mean, Telemachus," replied Antinous, "by this swaggering talk? If all the suitors were to give him as much as I will, he would not come here again for another three months."
As he spoke he drew the stool on which he rested his dainty feet from under the table, and made as though he would throw it at Ulysses, but the other suitors all gave him something, and filled his wallet with bread and meat; he was about, therefore, to go back to the threshold and eat what the suitors had given him, but he first went up to Antinous and said:
"Sir, give me something; you are not, surely, the poorest man here; you seem to be a chief, foremost among them all; therefore you should be the better giver, and I will tell far and wide of your bounty. I too was a rich man once, and had a fine house of my own; in those days I gave to many a tramp such as I now am, no matter who he might be nor what he wanted. I had any number of servants, and all the other things which people have who live well and are accounted wealthy, but it pleased Jove to take all away from me. He sent me with a band of roving robbers to Egypt; it was a long voyage and I was undone by it. I stationed my ships in the river Aegyptus, and bade my men stay by them and keep guard over them, while I sent out scouts to reconnoitre from every point of vantage.
"But the men disobeyed my orders, took to their own devices, and ravaged the land of the Egyptians, killing the men, and taking their wives and children captives. The alarm was soon carried to the city, and when they heard the war-cry, the people came out at daybreak till the plain was filled with soldiers horse and foot, and with the gleam of armour. Then Jove spread panic among my men, and they would no longer face the enemy, for they found themselves surrounded. The Egyptians killed many of us, and took the rest alive to do forced labour for them; as for myself, they gave me to a friend who met them, to take to Cyprus, Dmetor by name, son of Iasus, who was a great man in Cyprus. Thence I am come hither in a state of great misery."
Then Antinous said, "What god can have sent such a pestilence to plague us during our dinner? Get out, into the open part of the court, 145 or I will give you Egypt and Cyprus over again for your insolence and importunity; you have begged of all the others, and they have given you lavishly, for they have abundance round them, and it is easy to be free with other people's property when there is plenty of it."
On this Ulysses began to move off, and said, "Your looks, my fine sir, are better than your breeding; if you were in your own house you would not spare a poor man so much as a pinch of salt, for though you are in another man's, and surrounded with abundance, you cannot find it in you to give him even a piece of bread."
This made Antinous very angry, and he scowled at him saying, "You shall pay for this before you get clear of the court." With these words he threw a footstool at him, and hit him on the right shoulder blade near the top of his back. Ulysses stood firm as a rock and the blow did not even stagger him, but he shook his head in silence as he brooded on his revenge. Then he went back to the threshold and sat down there, laying his well filled wallet at his feet.
"Listen to me," he cried, "you suitors of Queen Penelope, that I may speak even as I am minded. A man knows neither ache nor pain if he gets hit while fighting for his money, or for his sheep or his cattle; and even so Antinous has hit me while in the service of my miserable belly, which is always getting people into trouble. Still, if the poor have gods and avenging deities at all, I pray them that Antinous may come to a bad end before his marriage."
"Sit where you are, and eat your victuals in silence, or be off elsewhere," shouted Antinous. "If you say more I will have you dragged hand and foot through the courts, and the servants shall flay you alive."
The other suitors were much displeased at this, and one of the young men said, "Antinous, you did ill in striking that poor wretch of a tramp: it will be worse for you if he should turn out to be some god—and we know the gods go about disguised in all sorts of ways as people from foreign countries, and travel about the world to see who do amiss and who righteously." 146
Thus said the suitors, but Antinous paid them no heed. Meanwhile Telemachus was furious about the blow that had been given to his father, and though no tear fell from him, he shook his head in silence and brooded on his revenge.
Now when Penelope heard that the beggar had been struck in the banqueting-cloister, she said before her maids, "Would that Apollo would so strike you, Antinous," and her waiting woman Eurynome answered, "If our prayers were answered not one of the suitors would ever again see the sun rise." Then Penelope said, "Nurse, 147 I hate every single one of them, for they mean nothing but mischief, but I hate Antinous like the darkness of death itself. A poor unfortunate tramp has come begging about the house for sheer want. Every one else has given him something to put in his wallet, but Antinous has hit him on the right shoulder-blade with a footstool."
Thus did she talk with her maids as she sat in her own room, and in the meantime Ulysses was getting his dinner. Then she called for the swineherd and said, "Eumaeus, go and tell the stranger to come here, I want to see him and ask him some questions. He seems to have travelled much, and he may have seen or heard something of my unhappy husband."
To this you answered, O swineherd Eumaeus, "If these Achaeans, Madam, would only keep quiet, you would be charmed with the history of his adventures. I had him three days and three nights with me in my hut, which was the first place he reached after running away from his ship, and he has not yet completed the story of his misfortunes. If he had been the most heaven-taught minstrel in the whole world, on whose lips all hearers hang entranced, I could not have been more charmed as I sat in my hut and listened to him. He says there is an old friendship between his house and that of Ulysses, and that he comes from Crete where the descendants of Minos live, after having been driven hither and thither by every kind of misfortune; he also declares that he has heard of Ulysses as being alive and near at hand among the Thesprotians, and that he is bringing great wealth home with him."
"Call him here, then," said Penelope, "that I too may hear his story. As for the suitors, let them take their pleasure indoors or out as they will, for they have nothing to fret about. Their corn and wine remain unwasted in their houses with none but servants to consume them, while they keep hanging about our house day after day sacrificing our oxen, sheep, and fat goats for their banquets, and never giving so much as a thought to the quantity of wine they drink. No estate can stand such recklessness, for we have now no Ulysses to protect us. If he were to come again, he and his son would soon have their revenge."
As she spoke Telemachus sneezed so loudly that the whole house resounded with it. Penelope laughed when she heard this, and said to Eumaeus, "Go and call the stranger; did you not hear how my son sneezed just as I was speaking? This can only mean that all the suitors are going to be killed, and that not one of them shall escape. Furthermore I say, and lay my saying to your heart: if I am satisfied that the stranger is speaking the truth I shall give him a shirt and cloak of good wear."
When Eumaeus heard this he went straight to Ulysses and said, "Father stranger, my mistress Penelope, mother of Telemachus, has sent for you; she is in great grief, but she wishes to hear anything you can tell her about her husband, and if she is satisfied that you are speaking the truth, she will give you a shirt and cloak, which are the very things that you are most in want of. As for bread, you can get enough of that to fill your belly, by begging about the town, and letting those give that will."
"I will tell Penelope," answered Ulysses, "nothing but what is strictly true. I know all about her husband, and have been partner with him in affliction, but I am afraid of passing through this crowd of cruel suitors, for their pride and insolence reach heaven. Just now, moreover, as I was going about the house without doing any harm, a man gave me a blow that hurt me very much, but neither Telemachus nor any one else defended me. Tell Penelope, therefore, to be patient and wait till sundown. Let her give me a seat close up to the fire, for my clothes are worn very thin—you know they are, for you have seen them ever since I first asked you to help me—she can then ask me about the return of her husband."
The swineherd went back when he heard this, and Penelope said as she saw him cross the threshold, "Why do you not bring him here, Eumaeus? Is he afraid that some one will ill-treat him, or is he shy of coming inside the house at all? Beggars should not be shamefaced."
To this you answered, O swineherd Eumaeus, "The stranger is quite reasonable. He is avoiding the suitors, and is only doing what any one else would do. He asks you to wait till sundown, and it will be much better, madam, that you should have him all to yourself, when you can hear him and talk to him as you will."
"The man is no fool," answered Penelope, "it would very likely be as he says, for there are no such abominable people in the whole world as these men are."
When she had done speaking Eumaeus went back to the suitors, for he had explained everything. Then he went up to Telemachus and said in his ear so that none could overhear him, "My dear sir, I will now go back to the pigs, to see after your property and my own business. You will look to what is going on here, but above all be careful to keep out of danger, for there are many who bear you ill will. May Jove bring them to a bad end before they do us a mischief."
"Very well," replied Telemachus, "go home when you have had your dinner, and in the morning come here with the victims we are to sacrifice for the day. Leave the rest to heaven and me."
On this Eumaeus took his seat again, and when he had finished his dinner he left the courts and the cloister with the men at table, and went back to his pigs. As for the suitors, they presently began to amuse themselves with singing and dancing, for it was now getting on towards evening.

So far away from home
Had it all
But I still felt so alove
All I gained was in vain
'Til Revolution
I searched the Word
'Til I found the missing part
I had to take the truth
And hide it in my heart
Now the song in my soul
Is a Revolution
If you want a Revolution
You've just gotta open your eyes
The truth can be the only solution
Look inside the Words of Life
It's time to stand
For what we know is truth
Don't give up
We got so much left to do
And it's here
And it's now
And it's Revolution
And I know that the world is waiting on me
And I know that the Word of God
Is just what this world needs |

Life is but a dream I hope I wake up tomorrow x3
Praying to the Lord to take me away from this sorrow
BKGD: Where do we go
[VERSE]
Last summer up in VA, I had this MDMA
She said she had a boyfriend who’s coming down the freeway
I said is that too quick girl? She said lets skip the foreplay
Talked about last semester, I said college it bores me
That’s when I had this feeling, that life is just some circles
When I tried my hardest they called this nigga Erkel
Why I work so hard for? Stay moving like it’s parkour
TJay get an ice pack you’re bruising up those bars boy
Nothing less but far more but still this shit be hardcore
People tell me down boy they see my race like Al Gore
You see that double meaning that’s what I need my crown for
They try to keep me down for my skill and for my talent
Knocking me off balance, but I haven’t looked around since
My grandpa left me lonely and dealing with this pressure
Instead I see a challenge and I take it like my pleasure
[HOOK]
[VERSE]
It was just a dream to be on the television
If you knew my dreams you’d see I have hella visions
Lately though my angel been taking an intermission
I hope I understand and focus my own ambition
I can’t tell you when but something is about to happen
Cause Jesus knows my plan is much bigger than rapping
This cruise is finna take off, I got no time for ‘laxing
Push away distractions and put out words like captions
Ain’t no looking back since, can’t hear you like an accent
No I cut no slack bitch, over your head like back flips
Holding like a tight grip and never letting go
Even when I feel weak I never let It show
Some people try to hold on and never let me grow
And I have done some things some people will never know
So I’m praying to the father to open the doors before
To show the whole world that they can never ignore me |

If the soul survives, like I do every summer and...
I’m still a fucking bummer? Then...
Everyone I know is still alive by
No choice of mine
I know exactly what I did
I opted out by never really opting-in
And never really thought I would survive
Nothing new, under sun and moon
And this just can’t be right...
Since the right co-opted nihilism, I’ll decide not to decide
[Bridge]
I’m still my father’s son, only ever looking out for number one
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Who knew life could be anything but?

Put a bullet in every poet
Flatten every mountain
Level every hill
You’d best believe it
'Cause they fucking will

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh

Who knew life could be anything but?

And this just can't be right (Fell every tree in the forest)

I’ll decide not to decide
Flatten every mountain (And this just can't be right)
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Level every hill

Took a private jet out of space
Look you dead in your gaze, just to text you and say

Argue, do my jeweller, too much ice can't tell the time
You ain't gang or gangster, get from 'round here
My teachers caught a buzz, these diamonds are like lightyears
She says she doesn't like me, I'm just, I move too cray
In some different drip, you basics probably call weird, yeah
Smokin' so much reef, my mouth is all stiff, yeah
She just want Celine and some good dick, yeah
Give you what you need, make you cum quick, yeah

It take effort tryna be me
But goddammit I hope it makes you happy when you say you know me
I know you think you mean it, you gon have to show me

You know, you know
You know better, know better
You got it, you know

You ain’t been around for a long time
But I’m keeping you around since it seems like you wanna be, stay close to as much as you wanna see, and
Prolly think that it’s honesty, and
Honestly I don’t know whether it is or ain’t
Won’t pretend that I ever have been a saint
People leave like as often as seasons change
Know I’m distant, but what you want me to say?

You know it’s never been easy
For everything you see to be everything you see. It take effort tryna be me
But still, you look so fuckin happy when you say you know me, and I’m tryna keep it classy but you knew the old me

You got it
(somehow, you know)
Just tell me, tell me who I am

Just don't say you love me

They said smile but the tulips they're vile
I don't care
And I need it now, more than ever

I hope someday
Someday you will need me
All alone something wasn't breathing
You said you were waiting here for me
Why are we Waiting?
Why are we waiting at all?
So where do we go from here?
I'm sorry that we had to
The decision that I came to
And the plans we had they fell through
Better separate
Because I don't feel it in the morning
Mate she's right on she keeps calling me out
Just have another drink with your mates
While your sat contemplating
The decisions you've made mate
I know it's frustrating
I hope someday
Someday you will need me

All this shouting and running about!
What's happened?
[TODD]
I had him!
His throat was bare beneath my hand
No! I had him!
His throat was there and he'll never come again!

Easy not!
Hush, love, hush!
I keep telling you—
[TODD]
When!?
[MRS. LOVETT]
What's your rush?
[TODD]
Why did I wait!?
You told me to wait!
Now he'll never come again!
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
And it's filled with people who are filled with shit
And the vermin of the world inhabit it
But not for long!
They all deserve to die
Tell you why, Mrs. Lovett, tell you why
Because in all of the whole human race, Mrs. Lovett
There are two kinds of men and only two
There's the one staying put in his proper place
And the one with his foot in the other one's face
Look at me, Mrs. Lovett, look at you
Though we all deserve to die
Even you, Mrs. Lovett, even I
Because the lives of the wicked should be made brief!
For the rest of us, death will be a relief
We all deserve to die!
And I'll never see Johanna
No, I'll never hug my girl to me
Finished!
Alright!
You, sir!
How 'bout a shave?
Come and visit your good friend Sweeney
You, sir! Too, sir!
Welcome to the grave!
I will have vengeance!
I will have salvation!
Who, sir!? You, sir?
No one's in the chair!
Come on! Come on!
Sweeney's waiting
I want you bleeders!
You sir, anybody!
Gentlemen, now don't be shy!
Not one man
No not ten men
Nor a hundred can assuage me!
I will have you!
And I will get him back even as he gloats
In the meantime I'll practice on less honourable throats
And my Lucy lies in ashes!
And I'll never see my girl again!
But the work waits!
I'm alive at last!
And I'm full of joy! |

Take me by the hand
Save me from my own insanity
How can I make you understand?
I'm drowning in your love

Time usually flies (time usually flies)
But when we're one on one
Not even a second passes by (even a second passes by)

Turns to the rhythm of relief
I'm lost up in your touch
But I refuse to find my path
You can insight[?] me with your love
Encapture me just like a photograph

Torn between the loves of my life
Point me south when my journey's done
Imagine me close to home, will you
But navigate until then
We must sail on
Cover my eyes and paint me a picture
Show me a place I want to be
Feeling surprise, it's not what I pictured
A garden of thorns like nothing I've seen
If I never come back again
It's because I faced the reckoning
The way to New Monta is here
A nation of legend and force
But first we must leave Trader's Isle
And make our way through the dawn
Dancing on a sea so still
Calming is the night I feel
Humbled witness to all things I long for and...
Oh, midnight on a sea so still
The world has never been so real
One wrong turn and we're all going down
Our hearts run aground
But faith will not falter
Hold tight when the wind starts to howl
Keep eyes on the bow
We'll all come out somehow
Cover my eye and paint me a picture
Show me a place I want to be
I found a place it looks like your picture
But I feel that I'm lost, now that I'm here |

Intertwine cables and transmit
The transcripts I brandish
Eat y'all I'm famished
Expand with cannabis
Pull a tooth and a tusk
Sunspot will let the cannon bust and crush frontal
Too comfortable when I'm amongst the flow
That will stunt your growth
Puncture skulls with harpoons
Who are you? Cartoons
Animated pantomime
In the sands of time I plant landmines
When I highjack, you climax, so why ask?
Don't reply back, I'm human Imac
You get side tracked, your rap will bellyflop
While we get hella props, propel like hellacopt's
It's Teren and Corey, carrying 40's
No time for sore feet
Luckier than four-leaf
Hit points, capacity, toggle tenacity
Your brainwaves travel at half the speed after weed
Fax machine freeze, cleave ya, photocopy ya
Phony ass philosophers all the sudden at a loss for words
Remodel your Sleepy Hollow
Leave you completely boggled
Make you hobble on one leg through potholes
You not close, getting colder
I'm shitting bolders
I spit like Yoda
Bitch I told ya, we hold up the planet
Leave you tore up and damaged
Fold up and sandwich your manuscripts with magical amulets
Can you get down to business?
Handle any challenges?
[Hook: Del the Funky Homosapien]
It's all coming back to me
How we used to rap for free
Fools wasn't platinum bound
We rocked the happening sounds
It's all coming back to me
How we used to rap for free
Fools wasn't platinum bound
We rocked the happening sounds
[Verse 2: Sunspot Jonz]
Like minions on the white and blacks
We attack, ransack, wack, out of place, smoked out MC's
Macked out wannabe's
They all play freeze tag in degrees of pseudo identities
It's all anomalies at war with masculinity
They can never touch, the legendary
Legend varies from state to state, tape to tape
Tape to grade, live shows with live flow
Turning to negative, suicidal, never right though
Perpetrating survival, in a tidal wave
Your vital signs kill the rival [?]
Claiming you're Ovaltine
Well man, your talent is mine
Like Frasier/Ali dreams stand
As a nick you with my spurs
Shwing, get cut like Ramen from the [?]
While me and Del stand as microphone kings
Sunspot stings like the Police
And these word that I sing [?]
You're stage show
Yo you don't want no mo, no dough, no show, no flow
And you lied, oh, no coal, rapper [?]
Lead to liquidation, occupation, gravitation, to the nose
I suppose back in the day it was about free shows
But today everybody knows that (bows)
Hiero, Living Legends, fly flows, as high as high goes
We flow as we go, we go as we go
Ice pirates
[Hook: Del the Funky Homosapien]
It's all coming back to me
How we used to rap for free
Fools wasn't platinum bound
We rocked the happening sounds
It's all coming back to me
How we used to rap for free
Fools wasn't platinum bound
We rocked the happening sounds
It's all coming back to me
How we used to rap for free
[Outro: Del the Funky Homosapien, (Sunspot Jonz)]
Yeah, just keep it up, keep going strong
Keep your mind on the right path and you can do it man
You can do it
Yeah, yeah

3,231,631 | 4,887,727 | Again From Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood | rock | [Verse 1]
I thought that I could reach
Something carried over I saw within my dreams
And yet I stumble on all my actions on this road
That's in front of me
It's not like I want things to go back to the way before
All I want is to open my eyes and feel the sun
Don't let them see that you're afraid
No, don't make a face
And, no, you can't let them know you want them
To pity you
[Pre-Chorus]
You can't let every single sin end with tears
Wear them proudly on your sleeve along with your fears
It's like you're waiting for someone to draw near
In a maze of emotion
There comes a day where you find a way to escape
A blank page, now I'm writing out my own fate
I've grown tired of running away from a thing called reality
[Chorus]
And I will scream from the top of my lungs
I'm living to fulfill my hopes
(Can you hear me?)
I'm no longer taking the safer way out of anything
(We'll never go back home)
I'll always find strength from those who will help me
They'll always be there by my side
(I'm on my way)
The hope for tomorrow
Will help me ease all my pain today
[Verse 2]
And I'll apologize for mistakes that I made and wrongs I couldn't right
Didn't mean to worry you
For what I couldn't say or things I couldn't do
I tried to carry everything back then even now
And even when I cave into the stress I'll get back up
Just close your eyes and it'll help you see everything
And soon you'll understand every truth
The good and bad
[Pre-Chorus]
You can't let any word that they say juristic the way you're gonna live out your days
You got the power and you gotta make your own way
Don't be controlled by liars
All the envy and the wrath it got to my head
Vision blurring irritated now I see red
All the pride is eating at me for what I said
Giving into my greed
[Chorus]
And I will scream from the top of my lungs
I'm living to fulfill my hopes
(Can you hear me?)
I'm no longer taking the safer way out of anything
(We'll never go back home)
I'll always find strength from those who will help me
They'll always be there by my side
(I'm on my way)
The hope for tomorrow
Will help me ease all my pain today
[Bridge]
How will you open up the door now?
Will you just barge in?
Do you know what's in store?
It's your decision
If you'll keep on moving forward
There's no turning back
Your story's begun
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
[Refrain]
I still have too long a life ahead just
To give up and drop all of these dreams
I just want to try and fix all the things that I've left undone
We've only got one more shot
[Chorus]
And I will scream from the top of my lungs
I'm living to fulfill my hopes
(Can you hear me?)
I'm no longer taking the safer way out of anything
(We'll never go back home)
I'll always find strength from those who will help me
They'll always be there by my side
(I'm on my way)
The hope for tomorrow
Will help me ease all my pain today |

This is looking like I might just wanna stay
Can't remember much about yesterday
Ground is glowing, I'm slowin' my stride with every step
(Take a good look at it, girl
Take a good look at this world, ah)
Electric rivers flow by the silhouette trees
We skinny dip and soak in all of our past dreams
And all my new friends dazzle like they're royals
(Take a good look at it, girl
Take a good look at this world, ah)
[Pre-Chorus]
What is this place?
The skies are vast and no one's a familiar face
But I'm not afraid

Kinda feeling brave
The winds of change have nothin' on this switchblade faith
I'll take it to my grave
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
The night is young and it's wild
I'm running free like a child
On the crown of a mountain and I could keep goin' for miles
I don't know what’s coming next
I feel a buzz in my legs
But Heaven knows that I'm quick on my feet and
Good with a blade and some old-fashioned faith in a place like this
[Pre-Chorus]
Feelin' bulletproof and far from faces I don't miss
So many brand new risks to take

And I'm feeling brave
The winds of change have nothing on this switchblade faith

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm coming from the land of the scams and dollar plans
Cardierre blasts, to take all your metal, infactured sands
Where the blunt runs, straight out the president's face
We got more, heat on the streets, than in your apartment's space
Walk a creek of dirty needles, and follow the shattered dreams
Broken bottles lead to piss scented auburn colored streams
Type old money, pass his hands like identically hugh planes
Rap like bodies in Highland Park, the gun never jams
Fam, give me my money, you still owe me some change
I've been waiting since tanks from '67 came with the flame
So let's dance like those AK rounds and stop this aid
Just shake our ass like a glass ashtray, smashed on precious face
We dangle like sun, seven wrist to escape the shackle
Run your money like blood from Matt Parker's ankles
Cuz we gotta get that green cloth to smorgasbord
Don't eat it all, just let me eat for all my hood, you heard

Yo, the sun never rises here, it's just the gun shots
Blow your display on white snow and those haunted locks
Plus the chilling degrees an old routine
Take all the CREAM, what war need vaccine
That make it seem as if, we just as cold
As our hands, in sweet December mist
Embers of piff lift left over grains of cotton
That never blossom, sharp the heavens like the apostle
You see me, I write the lines like a sniper's mind
Polish ya nine, push up flowers, college of crime
So give me cash, you still owe me some paper
I've been waiting since you traded beads and whiskey for my labor
Coins jingle in pockets like rocks in a glass pipe
It's heavy like the air on San Arbor murder night
Stomp ya feet like that body dragged down the basement steps
I flow like water in ya cellar from foundation cracks
On the same streets where the slaves ran into freedom
Night fractured by neon, hustle, my cannons steaming
Yo this is I-75 robbery, zombie lodge
Kamikaze Gods, Michigan Babylon
Nice dead men that cast metal for no reason to travel on
[Hook 2X: Bronze Nazareth]
Make that money, but don't let that money make you
Make that money, but don't let that money make you
Make that money, but don't let that money make you
Make that money, but don't let it cash you in |

I quietly raise my head and close my eyes
My fluttering voice
As if I was waiting for someone
The thing that would open up my heart
(A dream-like story with you)
Our meeting that will be filled into a single page
When I’m with you
My image becomes clear
And before you know it a smile
My frozen heart has melted when you came in like a spring breeze fluttering me
Right now is the Tatatata timing to stay focused
Since I have you everyday for me is a Papapapa party
As I pray for the drawing in our imaginations gets drawn
I deeply fall asleep today as well
Say good night
No wonder today the time was going slow
My controlled heart, why is it beating so hard again
The shaking swing is like my heart
Going back and forth while in wanders
(It came like destiny)
Don’t try to stop but instead look around you

I’m here
However you want to do it, just do it the way you feel
The dark door of your memories
Close it temporarily and knock on it once in a while
Knock on it as long as I can withstand it
Just like when you saw a new pile of snow stacked high
Remember the feeling of when you step on that snow
You don’t need to be afraid of something new
Don’t worry, start it
Slowly, one by one you and I color the world brightly
This place we’re standing on is happiness
Let’s face one another and look deep inside each other
Since you and I are together right now
Don’t be saddened by the end that is waiting for us
Reminiscence of our memories
The moments we were together will keep you happy
I want to say a happy goodbye
Say good bye
Say good night

149,651 | 168,424 | Letter to Google On Project Glass | misc | Dear Mr. Page:
In April 2012, Google announced "Project Glass" on Google+. The company indicated that it wanted to build a technology that "helps you explore and share your world." The creation of Google Glass is said to allow you to take pictures, record and share what you see hands free, obtain directions and send messages, and basically ask whatever is on your mind right before your eyes.
Since the announcement of this initiative, there have been a number of articles written discussing not only the vast innovation of this technology, but also the privacy implications. For example, a recent article in the Wall Street Journal states, "It will only be a matter of time until you'll be able to aim the lens of your device at his or her face, and using face recognition technology get the individual's address, work history, marital status, measurements and hobbies. In addition, an article in Forbes indicated that a bar in Seattle has already declared the technology banned in advance from the establishment due to privacy concerns.
As members of the Congressional Bi-Partisan Privacy Caucus, we are curious whether this new technology could infringe on the privacy of the average American. Because Google Glass has not yet been released and we are uncertain of Google's plans to incorporate privacy protections into the device, there are still a number of unanswered questions that we share. Accordingly, we would appreciate the answers to the questions that follow:
1. In 2010, it was discovered that Google was collecting information across the globe from unencrypted wireless networks. This practice caused multiple investigations into the company along with consumers left perplexed. Google just recently agreed to pay $7 million to settle charges with 38 states for the collection of data from unprotected Wi-Fi networks without permission. Google also admitted that they did not adequately protect the privacy of consumers and "tightened up" their system to address the issue. While we are thankful that Google acknowledged that there was an issue and took responsible measures to address it, we would like to know how Google plans to prevent Google Glass from unintentionally collecting data about the user/non-user without consent?
2. What proactive steps is Google taking to protect the privacy of non-users when Google Glass is in use? Are product lifecycle guidelines and frameworks, such as Privacy By Design, being implemented in connection with its product design and commercialization? For example, if a Google Glass customer/user decides to resell or to dispose of their Google Glass product, would there be any product capabilities incorporated into the device to ensure that one's personal information remains private and secure?
3. When using Google Glass, is it true that this product would be able to use Facial Recognition Technology to unveil personal information about whomever and even some inanimate objects that the user is viewing? Would a user be able to request such information? Can a non-user or human subject opt out of this collection of personal data? If so, how? If not, why not?
4. In Google's privacy policy, it states that the company may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort...risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical. Please provide examples of when Google would reject requests on Google Glass that would risk the privacy of others? Would Google place limits on the technology and what type of information it can reveal about another person? If so, please explain. If not, why not?
5. Given Google Glass's sensory and processing capabilities, has Google considered making any additions or refinements to its privacy policy? If so, please explain. If not, why not?
6. In Google's privacy policy, it states that the company "may collect device-specific information (such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone numbers).a. Would this information be collected from users operating Google Glass? If so, what specific information is Google intending to collect?
b. Would Google Glass collect any data about the user without the user's knowledge and consent? If so, why? If not, please explain.7. It was recently revealed that the New York Times was the first to release an app for Google Glass. To what extent was privacy considered in approving this app? Is Google planning to make privacy a priority for future app developers? If not, why not? If so, please explain.
8. Will Google Glass have the capacity to store any data on the device itself? If so, will Google Glass implement some sort of user authentication system to safeguard stored data? If not, why not? If so, please explain.
Sincerely,
[Bi-Partisan Privacy Caucus] |

There's a place I try to go
So far from here
I close my eyes, I try to
To disappear
I look around in my own way but what I see I never
Never really know
I wander 'round until I feel it coming on and then it's
It's time to go
I don't want to be here
Falling out of place
Confusion's the consensus
Fighting for my space
[Verse 1]
And then you make me open my eyes
And you come back
All I wanted was some time
Some time to think
That's all I needed
I would have been okay
With just a little time
My time, not your time
You never have time
I don't even know why I try
You're probably here right now waiting
Waiting for that moment to ambush me
Slightin' my hopes
Crush my confidence
Pound me down
Pound me down lower than you ever have before
Just so you can grab my heart and rip it out
And then you chew on it, spit it out and throw it on the ground and stomp all over it
Laughing, laughing hysterically
Daring me to do something
Knowing that I won't, knowing that I can't
Knowing that you're me and I'm you
And I could never hate you as much as you hate me
Knowing the weaker I get, the stronger you are
Knowing how weak I am, knowing how strong you are
[Chorus]
Can't stop the running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
Now you got them running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
[Verse 2]
I lived it, I live it, it's not easy to say
I felt it, I feel it, it's just another day
It scares me, why does it dare me
You know it ain't a fair fight
Rain overtakes me, it tries to break me
You know that something ain't right
[Chorus]
Now you got them running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
Now you got them running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
Set my body free
[Bridge 1]
They don't make no seatbelt for the mind
So I can't fasten up for this ride
Running away
Can't stop the runaway emotions
Not right, can't fight
Can't stop the runaway emotions
Fighting, hiding
Can't stop the runaway emotions
Hypnotized, paralyzed
Can't stop the runaway emotions
[Verse 3]
I was scared, I am scared
I know it but I'm not afraid to admit it
See, being scared that don't bother me it's just a feeling
I can deal with that, I know what it is
It's what I don't know, what I can't feel
That's what bothers me, that's what really scares me
See, right now, I'm scared, really scared
'Cause I can't feel
Emotionally paralyzed, light-headed
Like, you know when you gotta pass out?
Actually, I wish I would
You know, kinda like when you gotta sneeze
The relief it brings
Just waiting, waiting for something to happen
Waiting for that moment, keeping you [?]
It takes you nowhere
Nowhere's where I'm at right now
Nowhere's where you're at
Nowhere's what you bring to me
Nowhere's like an itch you can't scratch
Like an itch in the brain
But when you finally figure out a way to scratch it
It just itches more
[Chorus]
Can't stop the running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
Now you got them running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
[Verse 4]
I hate it, I hate me
Like my consistency
I've seen it, I see it
I'm talking literally
So much lying, too much denying
It's time to face the facts
You can't help me, these cards were dealt me
Play out the final act
[Chorus]
Now you got them running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
Now you got them running, can't stop the running
The runaway emotions in me
Set my body free
[Bridge 2]
Oh, no
You really done it this time
Can't stop the runaway emotions
Can't stop the runaway emotions
Can't stop the runaway emotions
Can't stop the runaway emotions

2,928,807 | 4,371,720 | The family still resolve to hold up their heads | misc | Michaelmas eve happening on the next day, we were invited to burn nuts and play tricks at neighbour Flamborough’s. Our late mortifications had humbled us a little, or it is probable we might have rejected such an invitation with contempt: however, we suffered ourselves to be happy. Our honest neighbour’s goose and dumplings were fine, and the lamb’s-wool, even in the opinion of my wife, who was a connoiseur, was excеllent. It is true, his manner of tеlling stories was not quite so well. They were very long, and very dull, and all about himself, and we had laughed at them ten times before: however, we were kind enough to laugh at them once more.
Mr Burchell, who was of the party, was always fond of seeing some innocent amusement going forward, and set the boys and girls to blind man’s buff. My wife too was persuaded to join in the diversion, and it gave me pleasure to think she was not yet too old. In the mean time, my neighbour and I looked on, laughed at every feat, and praised our own dexterity when we were young. Hot cockles succeeded next, questions and commands followed that, and last of all, they sate down to hunt the slipper. As every person may not be acquainted with this primaeval pastime, it may be necessary to observe, that the company at this play themselves in a ring upon the ground, all, except one who stands in the middle, whose business it is to catch a shoe, which the company shove about under their hams from one to another, something like a weaver’s shuttle. As it is impossible, in this case, for the lady who is up to face all the company at once, the great beauty of the play lies in hitting her a thump with the heel of the shoe on that side least capable of making a defence. It was in this manner that my eldest daughter was hemmed in, and thumped about, all blowzed, in spirits, and bawling for fair play, fair play, with a voice that might deafen a ballad singer, when confusion on confusion, who should enter the room but our two great acquaintances from town, Lady Blarney and Miss Carolina Wilelmina Amelia Skeggs! Description would but beggar, therefore it is unnecessary to describe this new mortification. Death! To be seen by ladies of such high breeding in such vulgar attitudes! Nothing better could ensue from such a vulgar play of Mr Flamborough’s proposing. We seemed stuck to the ground for some time, as if actually petrified with amazement.
The two ladies had been at our house to see us, and finding us from home, came after us hither, as they were uneasy to know what accident could have kept us from church the day before. Olivia undertook to be our prolocutor, and delivered the whole in a summary way, only saying, ‘We were thrown from our horses.’ At which account the ladies were greatly concerned; but being told the family received no hurt, they were extremely glad: but being informed that we were almost killed by the fright, they were vastly sorry; but hearing that we had a very good night, they were extremely glad again. Nothing could exceed their complaisance to my daughters; their professions the last evening were warm, but now they were ardent. They protested a desire of having a more lasting acquaintance. Lady Blarney was particularly attached to Olivia; Miss Carolina Wilelmina Amelia Skeggs (I love to give the whole name) took a greater fancy to her sister. They supported the conversation between themselves, while my daughters sate silent, admiring their exalted breeding. But as every reader, however beggarly himself, is fond of high-lived dialogues, with anecdotes of Lords, Ladies, and Knights of the Garter, I must beg leave to give him the concluding part of the present conversation. ‘All that I know of the matter,’ cried Miss Skeggs, ‘is this, that it may be true, or it may not be true: but this I can assure your Ladyship, that the whole rout was in amaze; his Lordship turned all manner of colours, my Lady fell into a sound; but Sir Tomkyn, drawing his sword, swore he was her’s to the last drop of his blood.’ ‘Well,’ replied our Peeress, ‘this I can say, that the Dutchess never told me a syllable of the matter, and I believe her Grace would keep nothing a secret from me. This you may depend upon as fact, that the next morning my Lord Duke cried out three times to his valet de chambre, Jernigan, Jernigan, Jernigan, bring me my garters.’
But previously I should have mentioned the very impolite behaviour of Mr Burchell, who, during this discourse, sate with his face turned to the fire, and at the conclusion of every sentence would cry out FUDGE! an expression which displeased us all, and in some measure damped the rising spirit of the conversation.
‘Besides, my dear Skeggs,’ continued our Peeress, ‘there is nothing of this in the copy of verses that Dr Burdock made upon the occasion.’—‘FUDGE!’
‘I am surprised at that,’ cried Miss Skeggs; ‘for he seldom leaves any thing out, as he writes only for his own amusement. But can your Ladyship favour me with a sight of them?’—‘FUDGE!’
‘My dear creature,’ replied our Peeress, ‘do you think I carry such things about me? Though they are very fine to be sure, and I think myself something of a judge; at least I know what pleases myself. Indeed I was ever an admirer of all Doctor Burdock’s little pieces; for except what he does, and our dear Countess at Hanover-Square, there’s nothing comes out but the most lowest stuff in nature; not a bit of high life among them.’—‘FUDGE!’
‘Your Ladyship should except,’ says t’other, ‘your own things in the Lady’s Magazine. I hope you’ll say there’s nothing low lived there? But I suppose we are to have no more from that quarter?’—‘FUDGE!’
‘Why, my dear,’ says the Lady, ‘you know my reader and companion has left me, to be married to Captain Roach, and as my poor eyes won’t suffer me to write myself, I have been for some time looking out for another. A proper person is no easy matter to find, and to be sure thirty pounds a year is a small stipend for a well-bred girl of character, that can read, write, and behave in company; as for the chits about town, there is no bearing them about one.’—‘FUDGE!’
‘That I know,’ cried Miss Skeggs, ‘by experience. For of the three companions I had this last half year, one of them refused to do plain-work an hour in the day, another thought twenty-five guineas a year too small a salary, and I was obliged to send away the third, because I suspected an intrigue with the chaplain. Virtue, my dear Lady Blarney, virtue is worth any price; but where is that to be found?’—‘FUDGE!’
My wife had been for a long time all attention to this discourse; but was particularly struck with the latter part of it. Thirty pounds and twenty-five guineas a year made fifty-six pounds five shillings English money, all which was in a manner going a-begging, and might easily be secured in the family. She for a moment studied my looks for approbation; and, to own a truth, I was of opinion, that two such places would fit our two daughters exactly. Besides, if the ‘Squire had any real affection for my eldest daughter, this would be the way to make her every way qualified for her fortune. My wife therefore was resolved that we should not be deprived of such advantages for want of assurance, and undertook to harangue for the family. ‘I hope,’ cried she, ‘your Ladyships will pardon my present presumption. It is true, we have no right to pretend to such favours; but yet it is natural for me to wish putting my children forward in the world. And I will be bold to say my two girls have had a pretty good education, and capacity, at least the country can’t shew better. They can read, write, and cast accompts; they understand their needle, breadstitch, cross and change, and all manner of plain-work; they can pink, point, and frill; and know something of music; they can do up small cloaths, work upon catgut; my eldest can cut paper, and my youngest has a very pretty manner of telling fortunes upon the cards.’—‘FUDGE!’
When she had delivered this pretty piece of eloquence, the two ladies looked at each other a few minutes in silence, with an air of doubt and importance. At last, Miss Carolina Wilelmina Amelia Skeggs condescended to observe, that the young ladies, from the opinion she could form of them from so slight an acquaintance, seemed very fit for such employments: ‘But a thing of this kind, Madam,’ cried she, addressing my spouse, requires a thorough examination into characters, and a more perfect knowledge of each other. Not, Madam,’ continued she, ‘that I in the least suspect the young ladies virtue, prudence and discretion; but there is a form in these things, Madam, there is a form.’
My wife approved her suspicions very much, observing, that she was very apt to be suspicious herself; but referred her to all the neighbours for a character: but this our Peeress declined as unnecessary, alledging that her cousin Thornhill’s recommendation would be sufficient, and upon this we rested our petition. |

Like rolling dice, nice
Like shooting pool, hey that's cool

"People been putting me down"
"I'm so tired I'm yawning"
A new suit, pretty boots to boot
And I'm feeling slick
Gonna go to town, look around
And pull a chick
Of course standing on the corner
Might suit you or maybe baby
There's something else that you wanna do

Like to back a race, ace

Well, go on down by Baton Rouge, River Queen, roll it on
Bring that woman down to New Orleans, New Orleans
Go on, I've had enough, dump my blues down on the gulf
She loves you, Big River, more than me
[Instrumental]
[Verse 5]
Well I taught the weeping willow how to cry, cry, cry
I taught the clouds how to cover up a clear blue sky
The tears that I cried for that woman are gonna flood you Big River
And I'm gonna sit right here until I die
[Outro]
I'm gonna sit right here until I die
I'm gonna sit right here until I diiiiiiiiieeeeee |
2,043,915 | 2,902,819 | COLLIDER | rock | I washed up on the shores of your paradise, won't you guide me in
I laid unprepared, bare and terrified
Till I felt your skin
I watched the sun till I couldn't see it anymore
I thought I'd seen it all till I saw your eyes
Yeah
You stood on the cusp of my innocence, till you showed me sin
My feet wet, I learned how to swim again
Till the ocean split
I fell for everything till I couldn't stand up anymore
This paradise is where I'll die
Yeah
I feel it all when I'm feeling
I feel it all when I'm feeling you, yeah
I feel it all when I'm feeling, (yeah)
I feel it all when I'm feeling you
I left on a boat made of promises
And off I went
But you made a fool of an honest man
For that I won't forgive
I felt the blade till I couldn't feel it anymore
I took it all till I couldn't
I feel it all when I'm feeling
I feel it all when I'm feeling you, yeah
I feel it all when I'm feeling
I feel it all when I'm feeling you
When I'm feeling you
When I'm feeling you |

Laughing out loud
When they shame you
Find skeletons in your closet
Hid from view
Face the fears
Hold them dearly near
The pain so beautiful
Burning Lavender Lava
[Chorus 1]
We lurk for colors
To paint our aura
A bloody red sword
Spills your true color
Keep your red eye
So open my fellow
We'll die one day
So peacefully mellow
[Verse 2]
Too many voices ruling
A foolish weak mind
Laughing when I cry
Truly choking inside
Don't hold your tears
Shed them with your pride
They'll bring you down
Till you're six feet out of sight
[Chorus 2]
We look for colors
To paint our aura
A bloody rеd sword
Spills your true color
Keep your red eyеs
So open my fellow
We'll die one day
So peacefully mellow

"Life's too hard"
But mistakes are lessons
Crying isn't weak
Toughness won't prove strength
"It's too tough"
This only shows
How much you could hold
Till you break down and explode
Living in a world so blind
We'll take eye for an eye
So when the moon rises
It's a sign to keep on fighting |
764,567 | 980,030 | Cant Put Out This Fire | pop | Well, I finally got your letter today
Think I understand what you had to say
Your message came through loud and clear
You gotta get away from me, and away from here
Tell myself I'm over you-then, I'm just a liar
' Cause every time I think of you-fills me with desire
Love is like a burnin' flame-keeps on gettin' higher
And, I can't put out this fire, can't put out this fire
Well, I don't know what went wrong with you and me
Sometimes you get so close, you just can't see
Now I'm out here standing in the rain
Thinkin' about us and living with the pain
If I could only talk to you-then you'd understand
If I could hold you close to me-you'd know I'm still your man
Love is like a burnin' flame-keeps on gettin' higher
And I can't put out this fire, can't put out this fire
You know, breakin' up is harder than it sounds
People leave, but love still hangs around
Memories refuse to go away
They follow you, and haunt you night and day
Love like ours will never die-can't put out this fire
'Cause when I think of you and I-fills me with desire
Love is like burnin' flame-keeps on gettin' higher
And I can't put out this fire, can't put out this fire |
1,174,942 | 1,548,536 | S1t happens | pop | There was no second guessing
You were my baby, I was yours...
Like a charm to a bracelet
You were all I been waiting for...
Had to wonder if I met you in a past life...
I let go...
Cuz kissin' you was like breathin' for the first time
Then along came the lies, followed by alibies...
Arguments led to fights, fights went through the nights...
But I stuck by your side, every single time
Still willing to try, cuz I realized...
Shit happens (4x)
Shit happens (4x)
See whatever don't kill us, makes us stronger...
So we stick it out just a lil' bit longer...oooh
Shit happens (4x)
Going back to where we started
You're my lover and my best friend, again...
If the sky comes a fallin', I'll ride or die 'til the very end...
I never thought I'd find somebody who could treat me right...
But then...
You slipped up and I found out about the other night...
Shit happens (4x)
Shit happens (4x)
See whatever don't kill us, makes us stronger...
So we stick it out just a lil' bit longer...oooh
Shit happens (4x)
Oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh...
But as the seasons start to change...
And emotions rearrange...
We begin to point the blame...
But baby...
I'ma love you anyway (5x)
Shit happens (4x)
Shit happens (4x)
See whatever don't kill us, makes us stronger...
So we stick it out just a lil' bit longer...oooh
Shit happens (4x)
It happened, it happened, yeaaa...
Shit happens. (4x) |

I think I've been smoking just to feel sum
I don't really care we having real fun
I hope we making it home
Is there a reason why my ex is steady calling my phone Shut up Bitch
Running from my problems in a Benz truck
Baby come hop in and lets get fucked up
We can go do some stupid shit
Project X the movie shit
Go burn the neighbors house fuck my lifе, let’s ruin shit
Losing all our morals in the back of the truck, bеt
They gon' tell the story of our lives until we all dead
Even if I lose it all I'm glad we had a moment though
I don't wanna grow I'm tryna find out where I'm going though
But I don't know where ima go but all I know
Is I wanna be drunk and somehow make it home
I'm tired of feeling sad and stuck inside my head
Party til the fucking sun up let’s do it all again

I find myself drinking when the night falls
And I don't really stop until the day calls
I drink when I'm on my own
I sit and wait in the bedroom but no one calling my phone
Why do you have this side
Time is the reason we died
Lies fill the pain inside
Why am I never fine
But I don’t know where ima go but all I know
Is I wanna be drunk and somehow make it home
I'm tired of feeling sad and stuck inside my head

You Think they ready for you to go in Roy?
Huh? You think they is?
I don't think so Roy
Don't kill 'em!
[Verse]
If y'all trying to kill me with that weak shit then y'all doing a good ass job
Cause honestly y'all got me laughing 'til my lungs fall off
Cough, cough, cough, cough
When I bust a rhyme. I rise up the dungeon
Cause I'm the dragon and without they dice they crap can't function
Bored of this game
Bored of these lames
In the same lane
Talking about how sick they be or how they rhymes is insane
Well call me the proctor
Or call me the doctor
Or call me the therapist
Cause I'm a get rid of it
Cold world, for you niggas right?
But your Canibus ain't fucking with my line
Blow you cats away like I'm shooting with a nine
Corpse makes fresh air when you bury them with the pine
I'm just being difficult
My flow too residual
Got individuals
Trying to cop my individual
Biting me like biting off the key of a nade
When life gives you lemons toss em away and make kool-aid
And then eclipse the sun to find some shade
Stereotypical hoes
With loose holes
Used to play me
They wanted the ballers, and on the court I wasn't playing
But I guarantee each of the skanks' stank
Will be all up in my face
When I get a little taste
Of fame
And give the bloggers a name
But I'mma shrug em off like Metta World Peace
I don't think y'all really understand me
But fuck it tho, I never was a homo
My style always been solo dolo
Moon men and Martians are more of my kind
But I hail from Jupiter where the Sagittarius strive
So I will rock the nation
With my dedication
Without a moment of hesitation
Cause that's my education
Figure if I don't fit in then I gotta reshape it
Take it to the extreme of the world is what you make it
Anybody facing me is tasting red petals
Cause the Alchemist is going full metal |
64,114 | 68,684 | Summer Remains | rap | [Verse 1]
My right hand to God
Left hand holding the jewels
And I'm swearing up and down
The tide stole my youth
The creases in my brow ain't tan lines
Saltwater swole my eyes
The sun burnt me black and blue
Too cold this side of June
[Refrain 1]
It ain't natural
[Verse 2]
Right hand in yours
Left hand holding the jewels
When that jungle flower blooms
Better leave it in the ground
Don't try to cut it out
The creases in your brow ain't tan lines
Saltwater swole my eyes
The sun burnt you black and blue on your green eyes
Too cold this side of June
[Refrain 2]
That ain't natural
[Bridge]
I'll rebel, I'll rebel
But this ain't natural
I'll take care, I'll take care
If this ain't going well
I'm no match for you
This isn't hard to tell
That it ain't going well
[Verse 3]
When we're under the palm trees
Thinking heaven must be
Somewhere under these palm trees
With all the hell we're raising
At least we had the palm trees
To save us from the ray beams
But not even the palm trees
Could save us from the flames
Summer remains, ooh
Oh, summer remains
Oh yeah, summer remains
Summer remains |
119,943 | 134,571 | First Chance I Get | rock | First chance I get, I'm gonna write you a letter
Tell you everything I'm feeling
First chance I get, I'm going to make it better
Then we can both start healing
But right now, there's blood everywhere
Tears and despair
And the mirror is cracking
First chance I get, I'm gonna send my blues packing
First chance I get, I'm gonna take you somewhere
Somewhere safe and secluded
First chance I get, I'm gonna take you up where
Pure love ain't diluted
But right now the roads are bad
World's going mad
But I swear, we're gonna get there someday
(Someday)
First chance I get, I'm gonna plan out the big getaway
But right now I'm occupied, my hands are tied
But I swear I'm gonna get 'round to it
(To it)
First chance I get, I'm gonna say, “I love you” and prove it
First chance I get, I'm gonna say, “I love you” and prove it
Oh, first chance I get, I'm gonna say, “I love you” and prove it |
240,775 | 284,935 | Dreamy | rap | [Chorus]
Whispers in the meadows
Using clouds for pillows
We living in a hell hole
Only get a hell no, never hear a hello
Dreams die fast and I'm praying mine live long
Mistress on my dick when my bitch gone
Probably living wrong but what is really wrong?
Can't see my pain because I seal it in a song
Hate me or fear me, I'm a threat, so see that clearly
(Verse 1)
Tripping off some LSD
Dolphins in the bed with me
Never catch feelings cause they are just like them STD's
Ignored her when she messaged me
Technically I'm the referee
Adidas cover my body so I'm all stripes
Fall twice, get up three times
I'm what the word different defines
My brain tangled in some tree vines
On the road to riches, I don't need signs
Knee high motherfuckers trying to be David
Girls cut they wrist go to parties and leave wasted
Never escape the pain, so we numb our minds
But there comes a time where everything is peaceful
Your thoughts stop being evil and you actually care for people
Never used a needle, people treat me like a dee-vil
I really meant Devil
I pray to God above and hope going to hell ain't on my schedule
Life is like a test fool
You know the answers you just don't know how really hard it gets to, remember every lesson, every question, everything the father's blessing
[Chorus]
Whispers in the meadows
Using clouds for pillows
We living in a hell hole
Only get a hell no, never hear a hello
Dreams die fast and I'm praying mine live long
Mistress on my dick when my bitch gone
Probably living wrong but what is really wrong?
Can't see my pain because I seal it in a song
Hate me or fear me, I'm a threat, so see that clearly
[Verse 2]
The sky is not the limit
Had a shot at love and missed it
Friends too broke to pay a visit
I'm with when I say I'm with it
Right now, me and the moon kissing
Got me reminiscing bout the girl who had my back
The girl who said I had it when you all said I was wack
She ain't' with me right now so I need to see that ass clap
Bring it all back
I know I'm just filled up with drugs
But I can't just start new things and not fill them with trust
My honesty given by the commodity, I'm on my feet chasing after paper like fuck it I don't wanna sleep
Dollars be, on my mind night and day
Smoke some grass and fly away
Please don't rain on my parade
I've been up all hours when it's dark
Still finding pieces of my heart
Play your part and make sure you do it smart
People try to convince you otherwise but I ain't' like them other guys
I'm releasing all the butterflies in my stomach
Bitch at the summit
Is you coming?
[Chorus]
Whispers in the meadows
Using clouds for pillows
We living in a hell hole
Only get a hell no, never hear a hello
Dreams die fast and I'm praying mine live long
Mistress on my dick when my bitch gone
Probably living wrong but what is really wrong?
Can't see my pain because I seal it in a song
Hate me or fear me, I'm a threat, so see that clearly |

Drawing chains and
Driving me insane!
