So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Live from the rhythm, its
Something wild, venomous
Enemies trying to read me
Youre all looking highly illiterate
Blindly forgetting if Im in the mix
You wont find an equivalent
Ive been here killing it
Longer than youve been alive, you idiot
And it makes you so mad
Somebody else could be stepping in front of you
And it makes you so mad that youre not the only one
Theres more than one of you
And you cant understand the fact
That its over and done, hope you had fun
Youve got a lot to discuss on the bus
Headed back where youre from
So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Goodbye, good riddance
A period is after every sentence
Did my time with my cellmate
Maxed out so now we finished
Every day was like a hail date
Every night was like a hailstorm
Took her back to my tinted windows
Showin out, she in rare form
Wings up, now Im airborne
King Push, they got a chair for him
Make way for the new queen
The old lineup, where they cheer for em
Consequence when you aint there for him
Were you there for him?
Did you care for him?
You were dead wrong
So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Live from the Genesis
Underline it for emphasis
There is no way to pretend
That we dont really know what the ending is
Part of me thinking
That even addressing is being too generous
Do you really think that theyll notice
When you get removed from the premises?
And it makes you so mad
That somebody else could be stepping in front of you
And it makes you so mad
That I wont give you the respect that the others do
And you cant understand it was over
Before its begun, hope you had fun
Youve got a lot to discuss on the bus
Headed back where youre from
So say goodbye and hit the road
Pack it up and disappear
You better have some place to go
Cause you cant come back around here
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye
Good goodbye |
Ich mag meinen Verstand grad nicht
Wenn sich einfach unnötige Probleme stapeln
Ich wünschte ich könnte alles verlangsamen
Ich möchte loslassen, aber der Schmerz spendet Trost
Und ich bringe mich selbst um den Verstand
Denke es geht immer nur um mich
Yeah ich bring mich selbst um den Verstand
Weil ich der Anziehung nicht entgehen kann
Ich halt dran fest
Warum ist alles so schwer
Halt mich fest
An so viel mehr als ich tragen kann
Ich schleppe mit mir rum, was mich runterzieht
Wenn ich nur loslassen würde, wäre ich frei
Halt mich fest
Warum ist alles so schwer
Du sagst ich wäre paranoid
Aber ich bin ziemlich sicher die welt ist hinter mir her
Nicht als würde ich hier die Wahl treffen
Dass mein Verstand so verdammt durcheinander ist
Ich weiß ich bin nicht der Nabel der Welt
Aber du drehst dich genauso um mich
Ich weiß ich bin nicht der Nabel der Welt
Aber du drehst dich genauso um mich
Ich halt dran fest
Warum ist alles so schwer
Halt mich fest
An so viel mehr als ich tragen kann
Ich schleppe mit mir rum, was mich runterzieht
Wenn ich nur loslassen würde, wäre ich frei
Halt mich fest
Warum ist alles so schwer
Ich weiß ich bin nicht der Nabel der Welt
Aber du drehst dich genauso um mich
Ich weiß ich bin nicht der Nabel der Welt
Aber du drehst dich genauso um mich
Und ich bring mich selbst um den Verstand
Weil ich denke es geht immer nur um mich
Ich halt dran fest
Warum ist alles so schwer
Halt mich fest
An so viel mehr als ich tragen kann
Ich schleppe mit mir rum, was mich runterzieht
Wenn ich nur loslassen würde, wäre ich frei
Halt mich fest
Warum ist alles so schwer |
Our 12,500 closest friends in London are here, tonight
Making this such a beautiful sight to see
Were gonna play a- Were pleased
Were gonna play a b-side for you
Something thats not on the album
It made it onto the b-side of One Step Closer here, in the UK
Check it out, its High Voltage
Ive been diggin into crates, ever since I was living in space
Before the rat race, before monkeys had human traits
I mastered numerology and big bang theology
Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology
Invented the mic so I could start blessing it
Chin-checking kids to make my point like an impressionist
Many men have tried to shake us
But I twist mic cords in double helixes and show you what Im made of
I buckle knees like leg braces
Cast a spell of instrumentalness on all of these MCs who hate us
Leave you without a shoulder to cry on
From now to infinity, let icons be bygones
I firebomb, ghostly notes haunt this
I tried threats, but moved on to a promise
I stomp shit, with or without an accomplice
Run the gauntlet with whoever that wants this
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
I put a kick in the backbones of clones with microphones
Never satisfy my rhyme jones
Spraying bright day over what you might say
My blood types Krylon, technicolor type A
On highways, bright with road rage
Pages of wind in cages of tin that bounce all around
Devouring the scene
Subliminal gangrene paintings, overall the same thing
Sing-song karaoke copy bullshit
Break bones verbally with sticks-and-stone tactics
Fourth dimension combat convention
Write rhymes at ease while the track stands at attention
Meant to put you away, with a pencil pistol official
Sixteen-line, the rhyme missile
While you risk your all, I pick out all your flaws
Spittin rah blah blah blah, you can say you saw
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
Sometimes...
Sometimes...
Sometimes, I feel like a prophet
Misunderstood, under the gun like a new disease
Sometimes, I feel like a prophet
Misunderstood, under the gun like a new disease
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Yo everybody, put em up like this!
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
This is the unforgettable sound
Bringing you up and taking you down
Coming at you from every side
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
Ladies and gentlemen!
Thank you guys very much!
Dilated peoples in the house!
Dilated peoples, ladies and gentlemen
Much respect |
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house, were born
Into this world, were thrown
Like a dog, without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm
Theres a killer on the road
His brain is squirming, like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If you give this man a ride
Sweet family will die
Killer on the road
Girl, you gotta love your man
Girl, you gotta love your man
Take him, by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house, were born
Into this world, were thrown
Like a dog, without a bone
An actor out on loan
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm |
Wake in a sweat again
Another days been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like Ill never leave this place
Theres no escape
Im my own worst enemy
Ive given up
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me
I dont know what to take
Thought I was focused, but Im scared
Im not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help, somehow, somewhere
And no one cares
Im my own worst enemy
Ive given up
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me
God!
Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my...
Put me out of my fucking misery!
Ive given up
Im sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
Im suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me |
Suppose you were to die tonight, what would you say?
Do you believe in life after death?
In the chill of the night
I can feel my heart racing
As I run towards the light
That seems so far away
Wondering forever
In the darkest of shadows
Wondering if I will ever see you again
Wondering if I will ever see you again
Ill take your love
Ill take your hate
Ill take your desire
Ill take the world
When it turns on you
Ill set it on fire
W-the-w-th-th-the walking dead
The walking dead
Digging in the dirt
I can feel you getting closer
Steadying my hands through the blistering pain
Anxiously awaiting for the earth to reveal you
Wondering if I will ever see you again
Wondering if I will ever see you again
Ill take your love
Ill take your hate
Ill take your desire
Ill take your heart
Ill take your pain
Ill bring you to life
Ill bring you to life
W-the-w-th-th-the walking dead
The walking dead
Ill bring you to life
Ill take your love
Ill take your hate
Ill take your desire
Ill take the world
When it turns on you
W-the-w-th-th-the walking dead
Ill take your love
Ill take your hate
Ill take your desire
Ill take your heart
Ill take your pain
Ill bring you to life!
There is no such thing as death
There is only change, change, change, change |
Sending out a message to the world
But I just cant seem to find the words
No one wants to die alone
Broken and insane
Question every last decision
Another empty page
Do you know the answers?
Tell me how to find my happy ending
When do we start pretending that
Were all the same on the inside
Wanting what I know wont satisfy
Just an endless need to live a lie
Never meant to run away
Jumping out the train
My cage was built on good intentions
Burning every page
Do you know the answers?
Tell me how to find my happy ending
When do we start pretending that
Were all the same on the inside
All the same on the inside
All the same on the inside
Do you know the answers?
Tell me how to find my happy ending
When do we start pretending that
Were all the same on the inside
All the same on the inside
Were all the same on the inside
Were all the same on the inside
Yeah, were all the same on the inside |
Back, before I said goodbye
Just as the first day turned to night
Just as the concrete turned to dust
And the steel turned into rust
All I could think was a new way to dig through the damage
Couldnt think of a way to get through this
Now, I see you taking advantage
And I find another reason to do this
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Let go, its begun
Close your eyes, Im not done
Breathe a word and waste your breath
And keep it up til theres nothing left
Now, that I said goodbye
Just as the darkness turned to light
Just as the next light turns to day
And the world gets underway
All I can see is the anticipation
Waiting to take this out on the wind and the raindrops
And I waited patiently, taking it in
Ready for the first of the face-offs
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Let go, its begun
Close your eyes, Im not done
Breathe a word and waste your breath
And keep it up til theres nothing left
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Im digging us a hole to travel through
I wanna find a way to rattle you
You wanna try to hear the thunder hit?
Youre gonna have to follow me under it
Let go, its begun
Close your eyes, Im not done
Breathe a word and waste your breath
And keep it up til theres nothing left |
She cant hide no matter how hard she tries
Her secret disguise behind the lies
And at night she cries away her pride
With eyes shut tight and staring at her insides
All her friends know why she cant sleep at night
All her family asking if shes alright
All she wants to do is get rid of this hell
Well, all shes got to do is stop kidding herself
She can only fool herself for so long
She can only fool herself for so long
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
When it comes to how to live his life, he cant be told
Says hes got it all under control
Thinks he knows its not a problem hes stuck with
But in reality, itd be a problem to just quit
An addict, and he cant hold the reigns
The pain is worse, cause his friends have it the same
Tries to slow down the problem hes got
But cant get off the carousel until he makes it stop
He can only fool himself for so long
He can only fool himself for so long
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
Fly with me under the wings I gave you
Try to be closer to me, Ill save you
Fly with me under the wings I gave you
Try to be closer to me, Ill save you
Just follow me
I never know just why you run
And Ill show you what you want to see
The part you hide from whats inside
Just follow me
So far away, away from me
And Ill show you what you want to see
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me
I never know just why you run
So far away, far away from me |
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
From the thread to the needle, middle to end
When skies cock back and shock that which couldnt defend
The rain then sends dripping an acidic question
Forcefully, the power of suggestion
Then with the eyes tightly shut
Looking through the rust and rot and dust
A spot of light floods the floor
And pours itself upon the world of pretend
And the eyes ease open and its dark again
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
In a minute, youll find me
Eyes burn me up
You say youll never forgive me
But the lies have piled up
Moving all around, screaming of the ups and downs
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
And as the wheels go round and the sunset creeps
Past the street lamps, cars, chain-link, and concrete
A window then grows and catches the eye
Cries out a yellow light as it passes it by
A small black figure sits in front of a box
Inside a box of rock with the needles on top
Nothing stops in this land of the pain
The sane lose not knowing they were part of the game
And then the insides change, the box stays the same
The shame, shovel up the pieces of the pain
You can try to hide yourself in this world of pretend
But when the papers crumpled up, it cant be perfect again
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
From the top to the bottom
At the core, Ive forgotten
Taken far from my safety
But the sun will escape me
In a minute, youll find me
Eyes burn me up
You say youll never forgive me
But the lies have piled up
Now I got you caught in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
Now I got you caught in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
Now I got you caught in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
Now I got you caught in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
Now I got you got in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
Now I got you got in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
Now I got you got in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
Now I got you got in the act, you better step back
Im telling you that I see it right through you
In a minute, youll find me
Eyes burn me up
You say youll never forgive me
But the lies have piled up
In a minute, youll find me
Eyes burn me up
You say youll never forgive me
But the lies have piled up |
These endless days are wait for me
Tearing my heart that breaks for you
Im coming home tomorrow
Though youre not lying next to me
I hear your song that calls to me
Im coming home tomorrow
Back in your arms
Tomorrows just a dream I cant detain
Its like a fall I cant contain
And though it seems so far away
Its just a day, a lonely day away
The summers gone and I can see
The seasons end is set me free
Im coming home tomorrow
Back in your arms
Tomorrows just a dream I cant detain
Its like a fall I cant contain
And though it seems so far away
Its just a day, a lonely day away
Tomorrow Im coming home
Tomorrow Im coming home
Im so tired and so alone
Its like a dream I cant detain
Its like a fall I cant contain
And though it seems so far away
Its just a day, a lonely day away |
Ok what is it tonight?
Please just tell me what the hell is wrong!
Do you wanna eat?
Do you wanna sleep?
Do you wanna shout?!
Just settle down, settle down, settle down!
Well Ill give you candy
Give you diamonds
Give you pearls
Ill give you anything you want!
Hundred dollar bills
And Ill even let you watch the shows you wanna see
Cause you married me, married me, married me!
Im so sick of you tonight
You never stay awake when I get home!
Something wrong with me?
Something wrong with you?!
I really wish I knew, wish I knew, wish I knew!
Well Ill give you candy
Give you diamonds
Give you pearls
Ill give you anything you want!
Hundred dollar bills
And Ill even let you watch the shows you wanna see
Cause you married me, married me, married me!
When I was young I played a game
That love and happiness were the same
Now Im older and I dont play
I found out the hardest way
I got wasted
She got mad
She called me names then she call her dad
He got crazy and I did too
Wondering what I did to you
Well Ill give you candy
Give you diamonds
Give you pearls
Ill give you anything you want!
Hundred dollar bills
And Ill even let you watch the shows you wanna see
Ill do anything, anything, anything
Anything, anything, anything, anything, anything... |
And these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go, go, go
I finally let you go
This time I finally let you
Test my will, test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Yall go hard, I go smart
Hows that working out for yall in the back, huh?
Ive seen that frustration
Been crossed and lost and told No
And Ive come back unshaken
Let down and lived and let go
So you can let it be known
I dont hold back, I hold my own
I cant be mapped, I cant be cloned
I cant C-flat, it aint my tone
I cant fall back, I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
Cause I was there saying
And these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you go
Go, go, go
Oh oh oh
This time I
This time I
This time I
This time I
This time I finally let you go
This time I finally let you
Go
And these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie I can see through
This time I finally let you go
Go, go, go |
A-one, a-two, a-one, two, three, four
Uh, this songs about jellyfish
And their bellyfish
Aint no foolyfish
I dont droolyfish
Goes like this:
Jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
Peanut butter jellyfish
Put me onto your sandwich
Said jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
Cause Im a jellyfish
Im a jellyfish
My friends are fish and they go to school
They think Im crazy and they think Im cool
Cause Im a jellyfish
Im a jellyfish
Jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
Cause Im a jellyfish
Im a jellyfish
Got no eyes, I got no head
Ive got no house, I got no bed
Cause Im a jellyfish
Im a jellyfish
Jellyfish |
Dont start with the ugly part
Dont end with the things thatll make them want to walk away
Tune in at the din again, another price aint cheap
But somebodys gonna have to pay
Oh yes, you can only guess what it is, what it was
Dont remember what I had in mind
Shotgunning on a joy ride, coming down the block
Half-cocked nearly half the time
Give it back, give it back
Give it back, g-g-give it back, sing it
One time for the words divine
And two times for the things that you hope you never have to say
Three scenes in a dead mans dream, and the girls tell the boys
That they better fucking run away
Live it up or g-g-give it up, turn it up, tune it out
Let it rhyme with the other line
Shotgunning on a joy ride, coming down the block
Half-cocked nearly all the time
Give it back, give it back
Give it back, g-g-give it back, sing it |
God bless us everyone
Were a broken people living under loaded gun
And it cant be outfought
It cant be outdone
It cant be outmatched
It cant be outrun, no!
When I close my eyes tonight
To symphonies of blinding light!
God bless us everyone
Were a broken people living under loaded gun
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky!
God save us everyone
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
For the sins of our hands
The sins of our tongues
The sins of our fathers
The sins of our young? No!
And when I close my eyes tonight
To symphonies of blinding light!
Oh, like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky!
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky!
Lift me up, let me go
Lift me up |
What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I sit here and try to stand it?
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness?
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness?
Because I cant hold on when Im stretched so thin
I make the right moves, but Im lost within
I put on my daily façade, but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I cant hold on to what I want when Im stretched so thin
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on to anything, watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in
If I turn my back, Im senseless
And to go blindly seems defenseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then theyll take from me til everything is gone
If I let them go, Ill be outrun
But if I try to catch them, Ill be outdone
If Im killed by the questions like a cancer
Then Ill be buried in the silence of the answer
By myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I ask why
I cant rely on myself
I cant hold on to what I want when Im stretched so thin
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on to anything, watching everything spin
With thoughts of failure sinking in
How do you think
Ive lost so much?
Im so afraid
That Im out of touch
How do you expect
I will know what to do
When all I know
Is what you tell me to?
Dont you know
I cant tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I cant seem to convince myself why
Im stuck on the outside
Dont you know
I cant tell you how to make it go
No matter what I do, how hard I try
I cant seem to convince myself why
Im stuck on the outside
I cant hold on
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on
With thoughts of failure sinking in
I cant hold on
Its all too much to take in
I cant hold on
With thoughts of failure sinking |
I am
A little bit of loneliness
A little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints
But I cant help the fact
That everyone can see these scars
I am
What I want you to want
What I want you to feel
But, its like no matter what I do
I cant convince you
To just believe this is real
So, I let go
Watching you
Turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that Im not
But, Ill be here
Cause youre all that I got
I cant feel
The way I did, before
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
Time wont heal
This damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
I am
A little bit insecure
A little unconfident
Cause you dont understand
I do what I can
But sometimes, I dont make sense
I am
What you never wanna say
But, Ive never had a doubt
Its like no matter what I do
I cant convince you
For once, just to hear me out
So, I let go
Watching you
Turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that Im not
But, Ill be here
Cause youre all that Ive got
I cant feel
The way I did, before
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
Time wont heal
This damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
No!
Hear me out, now!
Youre gonna listen to me
Like it or not
Right now!
Hear me out, now!
Youre gonna listen to me
Like it or not
Right now!
I cant feel
The way I did before
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
I cant feel
The way I did, before
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
Time wont heal
This damage anymore
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
I cant feel…
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored!
Time wont heal…
Dont turn your back on me
I wont be ignored! |

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in the airs not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoias all I got left
I dont know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
Like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
So I know now when its time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right beneath my skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
I know Ive got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
Youve got a face on the inside too
Your paranoias probably worse
I dont know what set me off first but I know what I cant stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I cant add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face that watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
So you know that when its time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin |
Let me tell you bout myself
Some say Ive got a bad attitude
Some say Ive got nothing else
Some say I have a lot to prove
Let me tell you bout myself
Ill do whatever you want
Ill do what you ask me to
But I wont do what you tell me to do
No
Strange love
Be gone, be gone
Let me tell you bout myself
Some say I got a long way to go
Some say Im going straight down
Some say theres nowhere to go
And this is what I said
Strange love
Be gone, be gone
Strange love
Be gone, be gone |
Forgive the promise that is never kept
The wasted life that you have left
So sell your soul and put it on display
Echoing the debts that can’t be paid
Breathe in let go
The undertow
Will pull you in and throw you out of time
The shadow’s playing tricks on your broken mind
Tears will not cure the pain
Cry cry, can’t say no
Nothing cures a craving
Yeah yeah
Cry cry it’s all a show
Just a game you’re playing
Yeah yeah yeah
Yesterday is lost again
Collect the hours suffering in vein
So hold on tight watch the embers glow
The ashes fly away out of your control
Breath in let go
The undertow
Will pull you in and throw you out of time
The shadow’s playing tricks on your broken mind
Tears will not cure the pain
Cry cry, can’t say no
Nothing cures a craving
Yeah yeah
Cry cry it’s all a show
Just a game you’re playing
Yeah yeah yeah
Cry cry, can’t say no
Nothing cures a craving
Yeah yeah
Cry cry it’s all a show
Just a game you’re playing
Yeah yeah yeah
Cry cry, can’t say no
Nothing cures a craving
Yeah yeah
Cry cry it’s all a show
Just a game you’re playing
Yeah yeah |
It starts with one
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme to explain in due time
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
Didnt look out below, watched the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, didnt even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside
And even though I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme to remind myself how
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
Im surprised it got so
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a
Memory of a time when I
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter |
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away, if I give in
My life, my pride is broken
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
I wont believe a word you say
Im cut to pieces by the sound of every breath you take
Im swimming through a sea of hurt
My life, my pride is stronger
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
Its time to sink or swim
Its time to sink or swim
Its time to sink or swim
To see who gets scared when the lights go dim
Its time to sink or swim
To see who gets scared when the lights go dim
Its time to sink or swim
To see who gets scared when the lights go dim
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is to fast, you just wont last
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race

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

Sayin that I soften
I was duckin down to reload
So you can save your petty explanations
I dont have the patience
Before you even say it I know
You let your pride or your ego
Talk slick to me no
That is not the way I get down
And look at how you lose your composure
Now let me show you
Exactly how the breaking point sounds

You go too fast
I watch how the moon sits in the sky in a dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
Sun doesnt give light to the moon assuming
The moons gonna owe it one
Makes me think of how you act to me
You do favors, then rapidly
Just turn around and start askin me about
Things that you want back from me
Im sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you dont understand
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
Maybe someday, Ill be just like you and
Step on people like you do
Run away all the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
Used to be calm, used to be strong
Used to be generous, you shoulda known
That youd wear out your welcome
And now, you see how quiet it is all alone
Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you dont understand
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you dont understand
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
Stay away
I am so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest |

With eyes of power

Far from this place

Endless hopes, well, thats too bad
Smile happy, enjoy my pain
Hoping I can find what we never had
Never holding you, it makes me
One-hundred percent is where it lies, behind the tide
Inside the ocean, inside your ocean
Frozen is the present past, oh
Made of stone, but breaks like glass, so
Take me now to where I want to go
Thoughts astray but, who will know?
In a dream, it seems, just to hold my hey-and
Shaking the release
Stop me, stop me if you can
Endless hopes, well, thats too bad
Smile happy, enjoy my pain
Hoping I can find what we never had
Never holding you, it makes me
One-hundred percent is where it lies, behind the tide
Inside the ocean, inside your ocean
In a dream, it seems, just to hold my hey-and
Shaking the release
Stop me
Stop me
Stop me, stop me if you ca-a-a-hey-ee-ey |
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling, I can’t seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
I’ve felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection
Its haunting how I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing what is real
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling, confusing what is real |
Wait at the turn
Wait-ait-ait
Were building it up
To break it back down
Were building it up
To burn it down
We cant wait
To burn it to the ground
Wait at the turn
Whoa
Were building it up
To break it back down
Were building it up |
Melted candles on the window sill
Perfume in the haze
Ashtrays spread across the floor
On a normal day
We lay out across the bed
Just like we always did
And in this house
The devil laid his hand on our head
And made them spin
I want to be your man
If you think I cared
I want to be your man
Your man, lord
No more defenses
Like no more peace of mind
Keeping in these knives stabbing
Spilling out your blood to me
I want to be your man
If you think I cared
I want to be your man
Your man, lord
I want to be your man
If you think I cared
I want to be your man
Your man, lord |
The microphone molester, machete undresser
Stupid-dope-fresh type shit resurrector
Top gun, miramar, best-of-the-best-er
The leave-an-MC-peace-in-rest-er
Skill tester, the flex-the-gunner
The make-funner, the adversary make runner
Make summer cold with rhymes I spit
Kick gift to lifted delinquent wit
I be prophet, my rhyme—top it? Stop it
Fly like rocket when I rock it
Lock it down with this perverse verse
Every fucking curse, a burst of hurt
Move crowds; physical fitness rhymes
Coke heads couldnt do my lines
Im decorated like Christmas pines
My battalion rocks
MCs become silhouettes of chalk
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days
Hit the dirt, cause the words I spit
Will do more than just rip your shirt
Ill bitch slap your soul, contact the track control!
Youre coming at me? You cant hack it, though!
So ridiculous, watching my crew get sick of this
Wickedness, pitching this
Lyrical viciousness to crews and cliques
Made of men and mistresses
This is my life, the twilight in the fight night
And trying to see nothing but the highlights
When I write, these eyes on horizons
Die for my song, cry rhymes in krylon
Fire on, move men telekinetically
Esoterically beat-speaking with clarity
Feel my verity, heroism of heresy
And sever every MC I see with severity!
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days
Why not, what I came
Why not, what I came
Why not, what I came
Why not give me what I came to deserve?
Why not give me what I came to believe?
Why not give me what I came to deserve?
Why not give me what I came to believe?
Why?
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days |
It goes a one
It goes a one, two, three...
I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun
I don’t need to sweat it when the competition come
Original style like an 808 drum
So I don’t run the track no, I make the track run
My mama taught me words, my dad, he built rockets
I put ’em both together, now tell me what I got, its
A pretty smart weapon, I can shoot it, I can drop it
But learn to respect it ’cause you clearly can’t stop it
Like that
It ain’t over ’cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right
And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite
It really doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or if you’re right
’Cause once you get the teeth in, nothing really fights
Except for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose
And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes
But steady little soldier, I ain’t standing next to you
I’d be laying on the ground before you’re even in my view
Like that
Give me the strength of the rising sun
Give me the truth of the words unsung
And when the last bells ring
The poor men sing
Bring me to kingdom come
This is something for your people on the block to black out and rock to
Give you whatcha need like Poppa, who shot ya
Separate the weak from the obsolete
Youre meek, I creep hard on imposters
And switch styles on a dime, quick witted
Yall quit tripping, I don’t have time for your crying
I grind tough, sucka, make your mind up
Are you in the firing squad or are you in the line-up
Bang bang, little monkey man playing
With the big guns only get you slain
I ain’t playing, I’m just saying
You ain’t gotta sliver of a chance
I get iller, I deliver while you quiver in your pants
So shake shake down, money here’s the break down
You can play the bank, I’mma play the bank take down
And no mistakes now, I’m coming to getcha
I’m just a Banksy, you’re a Brainwash, get the picture
It’s like that
We swim against the rising waves
And crash against the shore
The body bends until it breaks
The early morning sings no more
So rest your head, it’s time to sleep
And dream of what’s in store
The body bends until it breaks
Then sings again no more
’Cause time has torn the flesh away
The early morning sings no more |
Original style like an 808 drum
Original style like an 808 drum
I don’t run the track no, I make the track run

Forfeit the game
Before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame
And puts your name to shame
Cover up your face
You cant run the race
The pace is too fast
You just wont last
You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasures in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken
You like to think youre never wrong
You live what youve learned
You have to act like youre someone
You live what youve learned
You want someone to hurt like you
You live what youve learned
You want to share what youve been through
You live what youve learned
You love the things I say Ill do
The way I hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken

Yo...
Watch as the room rocks, mentally moonwalk
Mixed Media slang banging in your boom box
Verbal violence, lyrical stylist
In a time when rock hip-hop rhymes are childish
You cant tempt me with rhymes that are empty
Rapping to a beat doesnt make you an MC
With your lack of skill and facility, youre killing me
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes
Youre not an MC if someone else writes your lines
Rapping over rock doesnt make you a pioneer
‘Cause rock and hip-hop have collaborated for years
But now theyre getting randomly mixed and matched up
All after a fast buck, and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up? None of its real
You want to be an MC, youve got to study the skill
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!
So, you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally, you dont have the hip hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
Sounding like the only hip hop youve heard is top 40
And your record company is completely missing it
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
So in a battle, you cant hack it, react with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal back flips
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts
Its taken decades for MCs to establish this
Youre new to hip-hop, and welcome if your serious
But not on the mic, leave that to the experienced
Using the waves of sound
The true master paralyzes his opponents
Leaving him vulnerable to attack
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up! Step up!
After years of pain-staking research by the worlds leading sound scientists
We here at the sound institute have invented a reliable audio weapons system
Actual movement of musical sound in space used to carefully attack and neutralize the cellular structure of the human body
And the question must be asked…
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up! Step, step up!

Like shining oil this night is dripping down
Stars are slipping down, glistening
And Im trying not to think what Im leaving now
No deceiving now
Its time you let me know
Let me know
When the lights go out and we open our eyes
Out there in the silence
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Let the sun fade out and another one rise
Climbing through tomorrow
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
This air between us is getting thinner now
Into winter now, bittersweet
And cross that horizon, this sun is setting down
And youre forgetting now
Its time you let me go
Let me go
When the lights go out and we open our eyes
Out there in the silence
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
Let the sun fade out and another one rise
Climbing through tomorrow
Ill be gone
Ill be gone
And tell them I couldnt help myself
And tell them I was alone
Oh, tell me I am the only one
And theres nothing that can stop me
Ill be gone
Ill be gone |
And you dont give a damn about the blood and sweat that I spilled
To make it so Im standing right here
Bet you could bet your soul and your faith in God that I will
Not fold in the face of this fear
Cause I wont be intimidated by you, pushed down and lied to
Im not a fool or a punk
And you could try to bruise me and break me, please dont mistake me
See if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Now, now see if I dont get right back up
Its something for your people on the block to black out and rock to
Give me what you need like papa, who shot ya
Separate the weak from the obsolete
Youre meek, I creep hard on imposters
And switch styles on the dime, quick witted
Yall quit tripping, I don’t have time for your crying
I grind tough, sucker, make your mind up
Are you in the firing squad or are you in the line-up?
Bang bang, little monkey man
Playing with the big guns only get you slain
I ain’t playing, I’m just saying
You ain’t got a sliver of a chance
I get iller, I deliver while you quiver in your pants
So shake shake down, money, here’s the break down
You can play the bank, I’mma play the bank take down
And no mistakes now, I’m coming to get ya
I’m just a Banksy, you’re a Brainwash
Get the picture? Its like that |
I want to pick up the pieces, so that theres less complication
So that theres less conversation and less aggravation
I want to go out alone, man, so that theres less confrontation
And, man, theres less association and less company, yeah
I was so frustrated, man, that I was all confused, man
And that I was disillusioned and sick of your friends
Run, dont walk my way
Dont look my way, cause I dont care, oh, no
So, why are you still here?
Why dont you disappear and spin out of my life? Oh, hey
Why do we have limitation, and, man, why do we have limitation
So that we dont get very far and so that we dont climb very high
I cant handle the indecision, and I cant watch no more television
And I wont miss you when youre gone, cause I know my life will go on
Run, dont walk my way
Dont look my way, cause I dont care, oh, no
So, why are you still here?
Why dont you disappear and spin out of my life? Oh |
Baby, I said baby
Im gonna leave you baby
Im gonna leave you baby
Im gonna tie you up to the railroad tracks
I said baby, I said baby
Im gonna leave you
Im gonna leave you baby
Im gonna tie you up to the railroad tracks
Gonna tie you up to the railroad tracks
Im gonna tie you up
Leave you down there by the railroad tracks
When the train comes by, its gonna take you away
Ooh yeah |
It goes a one, two, three...
I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun
I don’t need to sweat it when a competition come
Original style like an 808 drum
So I don’t run the track, no, I make the track run
My mama taught me words, my daddy built rockets
I put ’em both together, now tell me what I got
Its a pretty smart weapon, I can shoot it, I can drop it
But learn to respect it ’cause you clearly can’t stop it like that
It aint over ’cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right
And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite
It really doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or if you’re right
’Cause once you get the teeth in, nothing really fights
And as for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose
And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes
But steady little soldier, I ain’t standing next to you
I’d be laying on the ground before you’re even in my view, like that |
Are you ready?
Come on!
I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static, and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering Im pretending to be where Im not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
And though youre so close to me
Youre still so distant
And I cant bring you back
Its true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if youre not with me
Im with you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor, the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend that the past isnt real
Now Im trapped in this memory
And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react
So even though youre close to me
Youre still so distant
And I cant bring you back
Its true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if youre not with me
Im with you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
No, no matter how far weve come
I cant wait to see tomorrow
No matter how far weve come, I
I cant wait to see tomorrow
With you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see keeping everything inside
With you
You, now I see even when I close my eyes |
And you held it all
But you were careless to let it fall
You held it all
And I was by your side
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
And you held it all
But you were careless to let it fall
You held it all
And I was by your side
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless

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

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
Its high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
Ive been digging into crates ever since I was livin in space
Before the ratrace, before apes had human traits
I mastered numerology with bigbang theology
Performed lobotomies were telekinetic psychology
Invented the mic so I could start blessin it
And chincheckin kids to make my point like an impressionist
Many men have tried to shake us
But I twist mic cords to double helixes and show them what Im made of
I buckle knees like leg braces
Cast the spell of instrumental-ness and all emcees that hate us
So try on, leave you without a shoulder to cry on
From now to infinity let icons be bygones
I fire bomb ghostly notes haunt this
Ive tried threats but moved on to a promise
I stomp shit with or without an accomplice
And run the gauntlet with whoever that wants this
Its high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
Its high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
Its high voltage you cant shake the shock
Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

Akira, put a kink in the backbones of clones with microphones
Never satisfy my rhyme jones
Sprayin bright day over what you might say
Blood type krylon
Technicolor type A
On highways right with road rage Im patient to win
The cage and the tin to bounce all around
Surround sound devouring the scenes
Subliminal gangrene paintings
Overall the same things sing songs karaoke copy madness
Break bones verbally with sticks and stone tactics
Fourth dimension, combat convention
Write rhymes with ease while the tracks stand at attention
Meant to put you away with the pencil
Pistol, official, 16 line rhyme missile
While you risk it all, I pick out of your flaws
Singin, blah blah blah blah
You can say you saw
Its high voltage you cant shake the shock

Theres no way to find out whats inside you
Until you fall into the hole
You dug for yourself while you slept here
Too young, too selfish, too cold
And when you find out whats been waiting
The moment you open your eyes
You see your true reflection
The very first time in your life
You cannot hide whats in you
This will not be denied
You cannot hide whats in you
This will not be denied
Cry to yourself
Nothing will help
Its too late to change whats been done
You do what youve always done best
You run
Into the hole you fall deeper
Deeper the faster you run
It wont stop until you accept it
Accept everything that youve done
You cannot hide whats in you
This will not be denied
You cannot hide whats in you
This will not be denied
Cry to yourself
Nothing will help
Its too late to change whats been done
You do what youve always done best

This is not the end, this is not the beginning

This is not the end, this is not the beginning
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
Its out of my control
Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
Its hard to let you go
This is not the end, this is not the beginning

Listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
Waiting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last
I wish it wasnt so
I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I havent got
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
This is not the end, this is not the beginning

Maybe we can do...
You.
What happened to Lets keep going,?
Chester: I know my part, is that what you said?
Well, lets keep going.
Yeah, thats what you said!
I have to memorize it.
One more time! If we dont get it this time its scrapped.
Last time.
Producer: Rolling, were still rolling gentlemen.
Chester: Rolling writah!
Ready, here we go.
Chester: How many rolls does it take to get to the bottom of the track?
People come around
People let you down
Anywhere you go
Anyone you see
Its real
Its up to you to make it happen
Its up to you to make it real
And you know how it feels
To bleed some, to need some
And you know how it feels
To bleed some, to need some
Tell me what you know
Tell me how you feel
It doesnt matter when youre down
And when you look at me with your eyes
That smile on your face seems happy
Are you happy?
And you know how it feels
To bleed some, to need some
And you know how it feels
To bleed some, to need some |
The cycle repeated
As explosions broke in the sky
All that I needed
Was the one thing I couldn’t find
And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know
The colors conflicted
As the flames climbed into the clouds
I wanted to fix this
But couldn’t stop from tearing it down
And you were there at the turn
Caught in the burning glow
And I was there at the turn
Waiting to let you know
We’re building it up
To break it back down
We’re building it up
To burn it down
We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground
You told me yes, you held me high
And I believed when you told that lie
I played soldier, you played king
And struck me down when I kissed that ring
You lost that right to hold that crown
I built you up but you let me down
So when you fall I’ll take my turn
And fan the flames as your blazes burn
And you were there at the turn
Caught in the burning glow
And I was there at the turn
Waiting to let you know
We’re building it up
To break it back down
We’re building it up
To burn it down
We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground
We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground
We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground |
Forfeit the game before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame and puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race
The pace is too fast, you just wont last

You live what youve learned
You want someone to hurt like you

Ive been stabbed, Ive been shot, Ive been stomped the fuck out
I lost pieces of my soul representing this house
Ask anybody that can walk through yall with your folks
They tell you I go gorilla, that nigga is no joke
So win, lose, or draw, this is where I stand
And if I got to see my end, Im going out like the man

Wildman, Shaka Zulu, ridin for the cause

Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? |
Hey, I gotta slow down
I said we gotta slow down
Let me take you back to high school, 94
Well, at least when a nigga had time to go
Walk to the bus stop, sellin rocks on the way
Lil bad motherfucker with a pocket full of yay
Fell in love with a shorty that was bad
I would go and skip class just so I could see that ass
But she was too fast and I was too slow
Cause she wanted a nigga who already had dough
She found her a man who was like 24
But what she didnt know, that he had plenty hoes
She was too young, so now he got a new one
Cause shorty went and bought her a new gun
See when she catch this nigga, she gon do somethin
Not fight, but shorty gon shoot somethin
But she never got a chance, a change of plans
Shot herself in the back puttin the gun in her pants
Live life young, nigga, quit tryin to be grown
You gon miss momma when she dead and gone
Slow your roll, slow it down, my nigga
Slow your roll, slow down, my nigga
Live life, lil mama, quit tryin to be grown
You gon miss daddy when he dead and gone
Slow your roll, cmon, gotta slow down
Slow your roll, think you gotta slow down
I got a graveyard tattoed on my arm
So Ima just start with my uncle William Hahn
My momma only brother, he served in the navy
He lost his life because the war made him crazy
My nephew Shannen, 15 years old
When I think how he died, I get real cold
Cause they found him in a field with some crack stones
There was no flesh, it was just bones
I was just home with my cousin Craig
And then I got a phone call, said they found him dead
So whats next, aint went to Bizz funeral yet
Instead of one casket, I need two of them shits
It dont quit, just when you think Im seein better days
My auntie just find that she got AIDS
And its fucked up cause her life dont end
And she locked up, so she dyin in the pen, damn
Live life young, nigga, quit tryin to be grown
You gon miss momma when she dead and gone
Slow your roll, slow it down, my nigga
Slow your roll, slow down, my nigga
Live life, lil mama, quit tryin to be grown
You gon miss daddy when he dead and gone
Slow your roll, cmon, gotta slow down
Slow your roll, think you gotta slow down
This cant be life were living
Cause I dont wanna live no more
I dont wanna live no more
Cause I dont wanna live no more
I dont wanna live no more
This cant be life were living
Cause I dont want it no more, no more
This cant be life were living
Cause I dont want it no more, no more
Live life young, nigga, quit tryin to be grown
You gon miss momma when she dead and gone
Slow your roll, slow it down, my nigga
Slow your roll, slow down, my nigga
Live life, lil mama, quit tryin to be grown
You gon miss daddy when he dead and gone
Slow your roll, cmon, gotta slow down
Slow your roll, think you gotta slow down |
Im tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I dont know what youre expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Ive become so numb, I cant feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
Im becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
And every sеcond I waste is more than I can take
Ivе become so numb, I cant feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
Im becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you |
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time all I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away, its so unreal
Didnt look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin to hold on, didnt even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mockin me
Actin like I was part of your property
Rememberin all the times you fought with me
Im surprised it got so far
Things arent the way they were before
You wouldnt even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end
You kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter
Ive put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
Theres only one thing you should know
Ive put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
Theres only one thing you should know
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesnt even matter |
God save us everyone
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns
For the sins of our hand
The sins of our tongue
The sins of our father
The sins of our young
God save us everyone
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns
For the sins of our hand
The sins of our tongue
The sins of our father
The sins of our young
You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay em
But you wont take the sting out these words before I say em
Cause aint no way Ima let you stop me from causing mayhem
When I say Ima do something I do it
I dont give a damn what you think
Im doing this for me, so fuck the world
Feed it beans, its gassed up, if it thinks its stopping me
Ima be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedly
And all those who look down on me Im tearing down your balcony
No ifs, ands or buts, dont try to ask him why or how can he
From Infinite down to the last Relapse album
Hes still shitting, whether hes on salary paid hourly
Until he bows out or he shits his bowels out of him
Whichever comes first, for better or worse
Hes married to the game, like a fuck you for Christmas
His gift is a curse, forget the Earth, hes got the urge
To pull his dick from the dirt, and fuck the whole universe
I dont know whats worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I dont know why I instigate
And say what I dont mean
I dont know how I got this way
I know its not alright
So Im Breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit
Tonight
It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me
Admittedly, I probably did it subliminally
For you, so I could come back a brand new me you helped see me through
And dont even realize what you did, cause believe me you
I been through the ringer, but they could do little to the middle finger
I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of
My world, haters can make like bees with no stingers
And drop dead, no more beef lingers
No more drama from now on, I promise
To focus solely on handling my responsibilities as a father
So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof, like my daughters
And raise it, you couldnt lift a single shingle on it!
Cause the way I feel, Im strong enough to go to the club
Or the corner pub, and lift the whole liquor counter up
Cause Im raising the bar
Id shoot for the moon but Im too busy gazing at stars
I feel amazing and Im...
I dont know whats worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I dont know why I instigate
And say what I dont mean
I dont know how I got this way
Ill never its not alright
So Im Breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit
Tonight
Ill paint it on the walls
Cause Im the one at fault
Ill never fight again
And this is how it ends
I dont know whats worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I dont know how I got this way
Ill never be alright
So Im breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit
Im breaking the habit tonight |
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
The lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling, I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection
Its haunting how I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Consuming
Confusing what is real
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Consuming
Confusing what is real |
Im tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I dont know what youre expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Ive become so numb, I cant feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
Im becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you!
Cant you see that youre smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart, right in front of you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
And every second I waste is more than I can take
Ive become so numb, I cant feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
Im becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you!
And I know I may end up failing, too
But I know you were just like me
With someone disappointed in you
Ive become so numb, I cant feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
Im becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you!
Ive become so numb, I cant feel you there
Im tired of being what you want me to be
Ive become so numb, I cant feel you there
Im tired of being what you want me to be |
Everything you say to me
I need a little room to breathe
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
I need a little room to breathe
And Im about to break
Shut up when Im talking to you
Shut up
Shut up when Im talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up, SHUT UP!
BOBBY!
BOBBY! BOBBY! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!
GORDON!
GORDON!
GORDON GORDON GORDON GORDON GORDON GORDON GORDON!
SHUT UP! SHUT UP GORDON!
BUDDY! BUDDY! BUDDY! BUDDY! SHUT UP!
BUDDY! SHUT UP! BUDDY! WHAT?! |
I don’t like my mind right now
Stacking up problems that are so unnecessary
Wish that I could slow things down
I wanna let go but there’s comfort in the panic
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everythings about me
Yeah I drive myself crazy
Cause I can’t escape the gravity
Im holding on
Why is everything so heavy
Holding on
To so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around whats bringing me down
If I just let go, Id be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy
You say that Im paranoid
But I’m pretty sure the world is out to get me
It’s not like I make the choice
To let my mind stay so fucking messy
I know Im not the centre of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
I know Im not the centre of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
Im holding on
Why is everything so heavy
Holding on
To so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around whats bringing me down

Why is everything so heavy
I know Im not the centre of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
I know Im not the centre of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything’s about me
Im holding on
Why is everything so heavy
Holding on
To so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around whats bringing me down
If I just let go, Id be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy |
Aah-ah-oh

When Im down lookin back at you?

Someday, sometime Im gonna find just what it is when you look at me

It starts with one
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesnt even matter
It starts with one
One thing, I dont know why

В поту проснулся я
Еще один никчемный день
Проходит зря
Мысли мои горят
И нет сил выбраться теперь
Я здесь застрял
Сам себе я врагом я стал
Я так устал
Себя теряя
Умоляю дай мне знак?
Излечи меня
Я задыхаюсь
Расскажи мне что со мой не так
С чего теперь начать?
Я думал поборол свой страх
Но все не так
Я не могу дышать
Пытаюсь помощь отыскать
Но всем плевать
Сам себе врагом я стал
Я так устал
Себя теряя
Умоляю дай мне знак?
Излечи меня
Я задыхаюсь
Расскажи мне что со мой не так
Бог
Все страдания забирай
Все страдания забирай
Все страдания …
Все страдания к черту забирай
Я так устал
Себя теряя
Умоляю дай мне знак?
Излечи меня
Я задыхаюсь
Расскажи мне что со мой не так
Я так устал
Себя теряя
Умоляю дай мне знак?
Излечи меня
Я задыхаюсь
Расскажи мне что со мой не так |

Im tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Dont know what youre expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Ive become so numb, I cant feel you there

I wanna know your name
Feel your touch
Your eyes, your eyes are burning
I want too much
Nothing to do
I can hear this thing
It wants so much
To feel your pain
To feel your touch
And the siren sound takes control
Theres no one left to save your soul
Theres no one left to take you into the night
And the fog rolls through
A blue midnight
With nothing to do
Itll be alright
Feel your pain
Feel your touch |
Wasting my time
Im wasting my breath
Wasting my energy
Trying to impress
Whats so wrong with all that I do?
Whats so wrong with everything that I do?
So no ones home
When I come on the phone you try to avoid me
When I get you alone
What have I done?
What did I do?
All I wanted was anything from you
I wont mistreat you
All my love is around you
For so long its always been this way
If I let you come in you can follow me
Kill my depression why I dont kill you?
Im going insane from all the things that you do
Crawling illusions crawl in your head
Crawling illusions crawl in your head
You can keep on knocking but you cant come in
Im going crazy from dreaming of you
What have you done?
What did you do?
All I wanted was something from you
I wanna commit!
I wanna commit!
I wanna commit!
I wanna commit! |

I scream through the morning
Im kicking the twilight as she comes
Time waits, ever dawning
Spoonin the thickness out and feedin our open mouths
The price you pay is always…
Too high or too familiar
Sunshine, karma killer
Time waits, ever dawning
When youre following the animals around
I scream through the morning
Feeding our open mouths and spooning the thickness out
The price you pay is always…
Too high or too familiar
Sunshine, karma killer
Too high or too familiar
Sunshine, karma killer
My eyes are weary now
My eyes are weary
My eyes are weary
Too high or too familiar
Sunshine, karma killer
Too high or too familiar
Sunshine, karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer
As it kicks you, did it ever miss you?
Will I ever miss you?
Will I ever miss you?
Will I ever miss you?
Will I ever miss you?
Will I ever? |
Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling, I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection
Its haunting how I cant seem
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
Ive felt this way before, so insecure
(Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming) Confusing what is real
(This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling) Confusing what is real |
…Room to breathe
Bout to…
Break
Breathe
Im about to break
Breathe
I need room to breathe
Breathe
I need room to breathe
Breathe
I need room to breathe
I cannot take this anymore
Saying everything Ive said before
All these words, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Less I hear, the less you say
Youll find that out anyway
I find the answers arent so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Over and over again
Over and over again
Over and over again
Over and over again
Just like before
Like before
Like before
Like before
Like before
Everything you say to me…
And Im about to break
I need a little room to breathe…
And Im about to break
Everything you say to me…
And Im about to break
I need a little room to breathe…
And Im about to break
These are the places where I can feel
Torn from my body, my flesh, it peels
During this ride, we can cut up what we like
Waiting alone, I cannot resist
Feeling this hate I have never missed
Please, someone give me a reason to rip off my face
Blood is a-pouring, and pouring, and pouring
And pouring, and pouring, and pouring, and pouring
And pouring, and pouring, and pouring, and pouring
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up when Im talkin to you
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Im about to break
Everything you say to me… Im about to break
I need a little room to breathe… Im about to break
Everything you say to me… and Im about to break
I need a little room to breathe… and Im about to…
Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge
And Im about to break)
I need a little room to breathe
(Cause Im one step closer to the edge
Im about to break)
Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge
And Im about to break)
I need a little room to breathe
And Im about to… |
