I was so frightened
I almost ran away.
I didn't know that I could do anything I needed to.
And then a bolt of lightning hit me on my head
Then I began to see I just needed to believe in me.
Now I
I believe in me
And I
I believe in something more
Than you can understand
I believe in me.
Listen I
I believe in me
. . .
They said I didn't stand a chance
I wouldn't win no way
But I've got news for you
there's nothing I can't do.
Ain't no pretending
ain't no make believe -
Well
I've got to be the one
I gotta do what must be done.
'Cause I
I believe in me
. . .
Well
you know that I
I believe in me
. . .
I don't need no money
I don't need nofame . . .No.
I just need to believe in me and I know most definitely.
Don't need to get wasted
it only holds me down
I just need a will of my own and the balls to stand alone.
'Cause I
I believe in me
. . .
And I
I believe in me
. . .
I believe in me
I believe in me

[Instrumental]

I am anger
Under pressure
Locked in cages
A prisoner
The first to escape
I am wiccan
I am legion
Strength in numbers
A lie
The number is one
Chorus:
I - I - I
Everything that I see is for me
Yes, I am giant
I'm a monster
Breaking windows
In houses
Buildings of glass
Rebel rebel
Holy outlaw
Ride together
Don't try it
The power's in one
Chorus:
I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can rock you
I - I - I
On the edge of the blade
But the knife can't cut the hero down
I am virgin
I'm a whore
Giving nothing
The taker
The maker of war
I'll smash your face in
But with a smile
All together
You'll never
Be stronger than me
Chorus:
I - I - I
Right here on my own
But I still rock you
I - I - I
Don't follow behind
Just leave me on the outside
I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can shock you
I - I - I
On the edge of the blade
But no one makes the hero bleed
( No, no , no )
I am hunger
Feed my head
All together
You'll never
Never make the hero bleed

I (Bad Brains Cover)
Not as much but with such intensity
I'd like to be what they would not want me to be
I like to cram their chivalry inside their guts
I'd like to leave it all behind with the rest of the nuts
I... I...
Not as much but with more feeling now
I'd like to forget about you and try to break it somehow
I'd like to push it aside until I can see some more
I'd like to leave you where I found you liyin' on the floor
I... I...
I guess it's too bad, I guess it's too bad
I guess it's too bad, too bad for you
It seems the truth always prevails on your face
And in the end I see what's in it's place
So in the future you just may see
That what you'll receive is
What you gave to me

I came from a place I forgot
I woke up in a parking lot
Far from a meal and a cot
On the corner
Where all the streets got the same name
Maybe my brains on the brink of insane
Pain between the papers while sleepin' on the train
This the land of milk and honey
Know what I'm sayin'
The invisible man times three black, down and out
Out standing on a corner no doubt
Now a nation of homeless sleepin' in bus stations
Another win for the pilgrims who said no more Haitians
As I proceed someone to feed me is what I need
Through three blocks of dealers tryin to hit me off wit weed
Avenue and boulevard hungry as a motherfucka
Hope to get a ride from a trucker
Everybody know I ain?t no sucker
Everyone used to drop 30 at the rucker
Away from crazy kids in generation wrecked
Dissin' pyramids while praisin' projects
Walk past old folks gettin' no respect
Callin' young folks a bunch a no good rejects and I walk on
An eye for an eye I can?t recognize the man in the mirror
Is it I, it is I now who this cat I'm lookin' at
'Cause I've been waiting so long to get where I'm goin'
An for an eye in this country tis of thee
Now how the hell can I be free
Who this cat I'm lookin' at
'Cause I been lost so long without anybody knowin'
So I move on and I walk on
Past the preachers and the pimps gettin' their talk on
Now why do home gotta be where the negative roam
To be or not to be so I roll alone
I'm trapped within this skin and these bones
Temporary kings on cellular phones
Can I last as I walk past
Cigarette billboards and malt liquor ads
Walkin' on broken bottles and potato chip bags
Everyone I see got the nerve to brag
Where they from what they got and don?t own squat
Disrespect where they from and ya might get shot
Zombies askin' me what the latest bomb be
Should shot the fuckin' sheriff and the fuckin' deputy
For okay in the drug trade and lettin' it be
But I know prison for me is an industry so I walk
I heard the best things in life be free
Didn?t god make the land the air we breathe
Not for the homeless don?t give a damn about me
In the mirror somebody else is starin' at me
Maybe prison is the skin I'm within
All this time I been sufferin' can?t fix it wit a bufferin'
Plus they said I'll never work in this town again
Damn so I keep on walkin'
An eye for an eye, I can?t recognize the man in the mirror
Is it I, it is I now who this cat I'm lookin' at
'Cause I've been waiting so long to get where I'm goin'
An for an eye in this country tis of thee
Now how the hell can I be free
Who this cat I'm lookin' at
'Cause I been lost so long without anybody knowin'
Li'l day day is big day and just did time
Seen him standin' on the unemployment line
Which collided wit the line of the health clinic
I seen crazy Stacy her ass standin' up in it
No more welfare cut her Medicaid
Damn my mama used to do her braids
I keep walkin so they don?t see me
But I doubt if they doin' any better than me
So I walk on never take the planet for granted
I paved the concrete, asphalt and granite
I walk past 3 brothers sittin' on the porch
Wit a yard of dirt and littered wit Newports
Talkin' how they comin' up while they sittin' on their ass
As I walk past em I'm a target of their laughs
And one said lets get 'em for his fuckin' stash
As I walked fast past the other yards wit grass
Had a li'l cash tried to make it last
From a few deals I made from cleanin' windshields
I ran like a rally they caught me in an alley
Can?t get out the ghetto from New York to Cali
I thought I had nuthin' till I felt the knife

All hail, hail me back
feel my aim look through me now
come to me, fly in me
get on the top and throw it down my soul
I burn it all here comes the sun
Ask your goal to lead your dream
stay on the line speak the truth
walk my path bright and clear
I lead your soul I send you through
send a prayer to those who felt
Peace & Love in der Welt
read me well between the lines
for I'm what I meant to be
forgive me now
forget me not
hold your fight
take that light
we don't need another war
let shine inside what we send you here
all I heal, heal me back
let heaven shine on all my sins
turn the wheel move your will
to where your wish is guided to
just wait for a while
till what you ask comes down your way
Ask your goal to lead your dream
stay on the line speak the truth
walk my path bright and clear
I lead your soul I send you through
send a prayer to those who felt
Peace & Love in der Welt
read me well between the lines
for I'm what I meant to be

Woke up this morning and you weren't there,
The only scent was your perfume in the air.
How could something come and go so fast?
I guess this was just a one night romance.
I, I loved you
I loved you true,
I loved you and you and you.
I, I remember
I remember you,
I remember when we fell in love.
And when I look into your eyes I realize
That you're the only one for me.
You, you make me smile,
You make me cry,
You make me see how love is meant to be.
And when I look into your eyes I realize
That you're the only one for me.
Yeah yeah
I, I loved you
I loved you true,
I loved you and you and you.
I, I remember
I remember you,
I remember when we fell in love.
And when I look into your eyes I realize
That you're the only one for me.
Only one, only one for me.

(Lyrics - Tucker, Music - Azagthoth/Tucker)
I am the void of light, silence, I am the dawn of time
I am the all you see, emptiness I am the non
I am the air you breathe, treachery, I am your wine
I am the soil and seed, mundane, I am the in between
taste of my knowledge
come bleed me weak
of my force feed
drink of my power
breathe of the mist dine upon divinity
from the earth and wind
our return is now
forever and now again
our voice is one
voice of the ancient ghosts
now your chains are stripped away
I am the void of light, silence, I am the dawn of time
I am the soil and seed, mundane, I am the in between
taste of my knowledge
come bleed me weak
dine upon divinity
from the earth and wind
our return is now
now the chains are stripped away

we're keeping busy yeah we're bleeding stones
with our machinations and our palindromes

I am seeing tunnel vision in a world thats dark and cold,
I cannot believe how much I've changed since the days of old,
I know it's temporary but I need to focus straight,
I cannot believe I lost control of my fate,
I need forgiveness from the people I truely care about,
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out I am gonna win,
I can't afford to blow this one,
I hate myself sometimes,
I love myself,
I need this way of life because it holds me.
contradictions the way of life happiness is wealthyness is healthy
now I've made it through those lies and deceit,
I think whats done is done and I can't complain anymore i am sure,
now that I've found myself again it feels great I can't believe

That day I said I was going fishing well
I lied
But I did manage to pull my head from
The water
And watched as all my stupid ideas poured
From my eyes and my-y ears
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo, hoo)
And all I did I did
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo)
They ran downstream and picked up steam to rise
Through the sky
Forever become the clouds that come down on
My saddest days
When I'm reminded that it was my bright idea
To leave you
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo, hoo)
All I did I did
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo, hoo)
And all I did I did
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo)
(Ah, ah, ah)
(Ah) Now I'm baiting a
(Ah, ah) Tongue to be flung around town
(Ah) In hopes of finding
(Ah, ah) Someone on the way down
(Ah) Now I'm baiting a
(Ah, ah) Tongue to be flung around town
(Ah) In hopes of finding
(Ah, ah) Someone on the way down
And all I did I did
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo, hoo)
And all I did I did
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo, hoo)
And all I did I did
(uh-huh-huh-huh-hoo, hoo)

Not as much but with such intensity. I'd like to be what they would not want me to be. I like to cram their chivalry inside their guts. I'd like to leave it all behind with the rest of the nuts. I, I. Not as muich but with more feeling now. I'd like to forget about you and try to break it somehow. I'd like to push it aside until I can see some more.

It seems the truth always prevails on your face and in the end I see what's in it's place. So in the future you just may see, that's what you'll receive is what you gave me

I am the wind that tears your sails
The broken cross rejecting nails
I am the holy crucified
Yet sinful are my lusts and pride - I
I am ashes I am dust
I'm always held within disgust
Don't follow me for I mislead
Yet all these words you never heed - I
I'm the junkie with a gun
Pushing people's opium
Floating round the universe
I'm driving in my cosmic hearse
I'm intrusion I defy
I am immortal, never die
I am to take you hell and back
The one to break you on the rack
Suffer torment anguish pain
I'll violate all your domains
I am lies and I am truth
I am the portent, I am youth - I
I am the future and the past
Except the now which cannot last
I am Death Church, I am peace
Yet never granting sweet release
My betrayal burns your pain
For I beget you, you become me
You are, betrayed
Yet you still want to play the game
You're victim, you'll expire
Feeding life and all desire
Your life, your pain
Searching for your eternal gain
Flesh is weak, but still it calls
You who makes your own flesh crawl
Covet, your soul
You will never have your own
Thoughts betray and falsify

Contigo sufrio
Conmigo vivio
Y con tus mentiras
Llenastes su vida
De desilucion
No le hables de amor
Ya no sirve un perdon
Tu tiempo ha pasado
No vengas pidiendo
Una explicacion
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Eliel!)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
Y tu la hicistes llorar
Yo la hice mujer
yo soy tu hermano, no te quize ofender
Y aunque el tiempo pasa, hoy te toco perder
Y si en realidad tu quieres saber
Aqui fue usted quien fallo
Y a ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
Entonces dime que diablos le hicistes
Como pudistes, como tanto la heristes
Y aunque te duela que soy yo
De quien tu mujer se enamoro
Da la vuelta sin tu explicacion
Que a ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo
(Oooh, ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh...)
A ella quien la vio llorar fui yo

In a 18-wheeler blowin' my horn-horn
Granddad in the field pickin beans and corn-corn
Mama never saw that a star was born-born
Mama said star go mow that lawn-lawn
I said its hot as hell a nigga need some lemonade
Bump it its 2000 a nigga needs some Minute Maid
Go head and act up get cut with this switch blade

let down through the breakthrough
i travel as i hunger for the darkness below me
when i'm praying for the light above
to save this soul inside me
should i? would i? could i?
outcast from my own kind never knowing
soaring through my own mind never knowing
how could they live with what their doing
twist of my spine
oh god fuck
i don't get it
breathe with me
just breathe with me
it's up to me as i hunger
lay slow and still as i wonder
pray for darkness down in this hollow
but i try to grope
it's up to me as i sleep again
my body lays down as i holler
it's all inside but i confess in me

Look at my behavior
I can't help myself
One feet before the other
Hope you didn't notice
I'm fourteen days ahead of you
In my head you're already mine
I hope I don't seem
Like the desperate kind
Sometimes I, melt I
I don't know where to put myself
But I'm not alone, 'cause right outside
Still people just falling in love, yeah yeah
I see you're looking
But are you looking my way
I'd like to think so
I can only say
Sometimes I, melt I
I don't know where to put myself
But I'm not alone, 'cause right outside
Still people just falling in love
Some other time, some other place
Well maybe I'll show you my real face
Sometimes I, melt I
I don't know where to put myself
But I'm not alone, 'cause right outside
Still people just falling in love
Sometimes I, melt I
I don't know where to put myself
But I'm not alone, 'cause right outside

Come with the raising,
Of you.
Two years ago in the woods,
Saw a branch,
Fall in the brook.
I'll lead you, i'll lead you,
To your throne.
But it's up to my knees now,
Build me up, for the breakdown.
And i carried this all for you,
And you know i did.
And i bottled it just for you,
And you know i did.
Taking hold caught a rash,

Another bullet shots a victim
Someone is taken to his grave
I never be a hero
It's becoming harder to be brave
Everyone seems blinded
How do I feel myself from pain
The more I think about it
As I slowly go and say
Say...
I cannot live don't wanna die
I cannot live don't wanna die
I cannot live don't wanna die
I, I don't let you take me down
I, I ain't gonna lose my mind
I, I lose myself inside the underground
Don't you ask me I can't save the world
Remove the mask you wearing
I wanna starr into your eyes
I'll never be a plaything
You look so lovely when you lie
Continue until deny me
Can't escape the voices in your head
Try to think about it
Look for the monsters you have feared
I cannot live don't wanna die
I cannot live don't wanna die
I cannot live don't wanna die
I, I got no answer to take me down
I, I ain't gonna lose my mind
I, I lose myself inside the underground
Don't you ask me I can't save the world
I'm going in circles around in my brain
I'm trying to find my direction
You're breathing the live out of me
(8x) again
I, I don't let you take me down
I, I ain't gonna lose my mind
I, I lose myself inside the underground
Don't you ask me I can't save the world
I, I don't let you take me down
I, I ain't gonna lose my mind
I, I lose myself inside the underground
Don't you ask me I can't save the world
I cannot live don't wanna die
I cannot live don't wanna die
I cannot live don't wanna die
I cannot live don't wanna die

I have life, I have time, I
I have life, I have time, I
I stood inside the cave by the mound of the Skull
Examined that which was interred
The bones in this grave were human and whole
My mind held doubts but my hands were undeterred
I have time, I
I have life, I have time, I
The bones smooth and white had lain within the earth
As aeons passed overhead
I brought them to the sunlight to view them with more care
The years that passed, well, they were kind towards their dead
I have life, I
I have time, I have life, I
And as I pulled the bones one by one from the torn burial cloth
I wondered to myself "Did he truly rise from the dead
Or could these bones that I hold in my trembling hands
Be all that remains of Christ?"

I've got nothing
Left for you to take away
I know you blame me
For every time you walked away
So what you hate me
And everything I seem to do
So look back
Don't turn away
It was my face that you
Were lying to
And in our lives
We could find
Everything just separates
And in my live
You could find
Everything you want to take away
So what its not the same
Every word out of your mouth is shit
So look back
Don't turn away
It was my face and I am through with it
Why its all its old
And every part it takes
I know your faith
You give but take another way
So what you hate me
And everything is seem to do
I know that you blame me for everytime
I walk out on you
I've got nothing

[Bonus track on the ukrainean version of the "Goat Horns" album]

I am anger
Under pressure
Lost it cages
A prisoner
The first to escape
I am wicked
I am legion
Strength in numbers
A lie
The number is one
I - I - I
Everything that I see is for me
Yes, I am giant
I'm a monster
Breaking windows
In houses
Buildings of glass
Rebel rebel
Holy outlaw
Ride together
Don't try it
The power's in one
I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can rock you
I - I - I
On the edge of the blade
But the knife can't cut the hero down
I am virgin
I'm a whore
Giving nothing
The taker
The maker of war
I'll smash your face in
But with a smile
All together
You'll never
Be stronger than me
I - I - I
Right here on my own
But I still rock you
I - I - I
Don't follow behind
Just leave me on the outside
I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can shock you
I - I - I
On the edge of the blade
But no one makes the hero bleed
( No, no , no )
I am hunger
Feed my head
All together
You'll never
Never make the hero bleed

Timid, he was a broken loner
In this ghost town,
And it drained the hate from his mind,
Now there's nothing left inside
Rumors and lies
Are all you've got, they're all you've got, are all you've got
Mother, Father, where have you been?
I needed you,
I needed you
What have we become,
Mere shadows, standing alone, inside and out,
This incarceration is tearing me down
What have we become,
Mere shadows, standing alone, its inside and out,
This incarceration is tearing me down
And, oh, have I become a mere shadow standing alone,
Inside I cry out,
Screaming I make no sound
Screams
He finds,
I'm the one who haunts her dreams,
Her life torn at the seams,

I am the void of light, silence, I am the dawn of time
I am the all you see, emptiness I am the non
I am the air you breathe, treachery, I am your wine
I am the soil and seed, mundane, I am the in between
taste of my knowledge
come bleed me weak
of my force feed
drink of my power
breathe of the mist dine upon divinity
from the earth and wind
our return is now
forever and now again
our voice is one
voice of the ancient ghosts
now your chains are stripped away
I am the void of light, silence, I am the dawn of time
I am the soil and seed, mundane, I am the in between
taste of my knowledge
come bleed me weak
dine upon divinity
from the earth and wind
our return is now

Well I live a bearable life
and I see your eyes looking down at me on the ground
well I
I live a safe ridden life
I've got to push beyond the walls that bound me keep me surround me
well I
And you cry move up and out beyond
I tried I'm left within alone
I see the things you see in me
I see the things I want to be
You are the things that runs through
You're running through my mind
You lift me, ground me,
Keep me, surround me with you
And I can't stand to see the pain
I cry, can't hear me through the rain
What are these things you see in me
What are these things I want to be
One to another
The circle never ends
One feeds the other
And drives it on again....I cry
So true are the things that you do
What good are words when
Your actions scream the facts in my
ears well
I try, I'm left within alone
I cry, I'm out here on my own
What are these things you see in me
What are these things I want to be

Poarta-a vintului incet deschide, aspru suier 'ncet purcede
Iarna incuiata, codru inverzit.
Alb si negru sa-mpleteste, timpu tainic daspleteste
Picatura pica, piatra sa daspica,
Hora sa-nvirteste, apa daspleteste, ghiata inchegata,
Da vechi timp purtata, din miaz munte da piatra;
Samn ca timpu sa porneste. Dalasine. Si p' ales fagas.
La-ndasitu codrilor, in glasu vinturilor,
Si-n umbra pietrii, chip sfrintat, 'n munte, 'n 'nalt Ceahlau
Ce din gheata inghetata, lua forma ce-i fu data. Vesnic!
Chiparus... prin para si foc, vijelios... joc;
Ca prin foc sa arza, dincolo sa treaca, prin jar si cenusa
Sus pe calea cea apusa, ce-a alesului fagas.
Frati blajini, rohmani! Din aievea fiind, da dupa apa Simbetii,
Dupa brazda lu Novac,
Din scorbu pamintului, al din naltu muntelui,
Muntelui caruntului, s-al bradului,
Bradului, viteazului.
La virfsori da munte, la bradui marunti, la stina batrina,
Unde iarba creste, da-n patru sa-mpleteste,
Cerbu runcului, fiara cimpului, s-a pamintului, agale-n plai coboara...
Toti copaci in calea sa, crengile-s pleca
Coarnele-i margaritare s-impunzatoare
Laganat purtat, spre al tainic loc, fagas.
Cum urzica sa nunteste, sa-nunteste s-nfloreste,
Din intins cuprins da lume, scaun da lege sa aduna
Vorba sa o spuna, raspicat si pentru tati.
Legea bitii si cea fricii. Drept!
Pieptu ursului brazdat,
Da Focu Viu, da dupa Strimba Oilor
In mijlocu poienilor, si-n mijlocu padurilor,
Flacara-i rasfringe, si din foc si singe
Mugur verde da brad, imbucat, insingerat... s-ntrupat... dascatusat.
D-aci, incotro... dincolo...
Fagas!
[English translation:]
Open gates of wind, a whistle slowly crawling in
Locked winter, greened forests.
Black and white are blending secretly untwining time
The drop falls, splitting the rock,
The round dance starts to circle untwining waters; the strong ice
Which has long traveled, from the rocky mountain's heart;
A sign: the beginning of time. By itself. On the chosen path.
At the forest's heart, in the wind's whispering,
In the rock's shadow... a sculptured face on the heights of Ceahlau Mountain
Which, from icy ice, took the shape it had been given. Forever!
Pepper... through flames and fire, stormy... game;
Burned in fire, through embers and ashes, crossing beyond
Upwards on a faded path - that of the chosen path.
Kind-hearted brothers, rohmani! Coming from the real, from beyond Apa Simbetii,
Beyond Novac's furrow,
From the heart of the earth, in the mountains high,
The grayish mountains, and of the fir tree,
Fir tree... the brave!
In the mountains high, through the small firs, at the old sheepfold
Where the grass grows, interweaving four by four,
Stag of the defrosted realm, beast of the fields and of the earth, slowly descending...
The trees in his way they all bend their branches
His goading antlers like pearls
Swinging gait... towards the secret place - the path.
Stinging nettle sprouting, and blooming,
From the vastness of the world a law is taking shape
To utter the word, bluntly, and for all.
Law of the club and of the fear. True!
Furrowed bear chest,
By the Living Fire, from beyond Strimba Oilor
At the heart of the clearings, at the heart of the woods,
Its flame throws back, and from fire and blood
Green fir's bud, gobbled up, stained with blood... embodied... unchained.
From here, to where... beyond...
The path!

I, I, I, iiiii.
What if I, had chosen to,
Make a left, when I should have made a right and,
What if I, followed though,
And chilled with my crew last night.
What if I, took the call and
Stayed on the phone when I should have been gone.
And What if I, hadn’t turned around and seen you there.
If I could go back in time,
To when the stars aligned,
Would I find the strength again to talk to you,
Walk up to you.
If I could do it all again,
I wouldn’t change a single thing.
Don’t need to compromise, what I feel inside,
Don’t need to clarify my position I,
Submit to destiny, so baby come with me,
Let’s take it for a ride,
Baby, baby, I, I, I.
And furthermore, if you’re looking for,
Someone to be around, baby I’m down,
Let’s take it to the point, no need to justify,
Baby, baby, I, I, I.
What if we, hadn’t been,
In the same place that very same time and,
What if we, hadn’t seen, all the possibilities.
What if he,
What if she, Stop!
I don’t want to think about it,
What if I,
What if I,
Ooh, Never mind.
If I could go back in time,
To when the stars aligned,
Would I find the strength again to talk to you,
Walk up to you.
If I could do it all again,
I wouldn’t change a single thing.
Don’t need to compromise, what I feel inside,
Don’t need to clarify my position I,
Submit to destiny, so baby come with me,
Let’s take it for a ride,
Baby, baby, I, I, I.
And furthermore, if you’re looking for,
Someone to be around, baby I’m down,
Let’s take it to the point, no need to justify,

I have these fears you know
To let my feelings show,
My everything.
Am I anything to you?
I've lost the will to speak
And I have no air to breathe
Am I surrendering?
Am I anything to you?
If we could swim like the seas
Or change our colors like the leaves
Would we still want it?
Want it all
We have no seeds to sew
We have no space to grow
Am I uncovering?
Am I anything to you?
If we could swim like the seas
Or change our colors like the leaves
Would we still want it?
Would we still want it?
In I
A moment's space in
I
Oh what are we like
A moment's space in
I
We want our hearts to bleed
I wait for songs to sing
We sell our souls to be
I wait for everything
In I
A moment's space in
I
Oh what are we like
A moment's space in
I

* I let my fantasies fascinate me
My passions permeate me
Breath of God infiltrate me
Creation of course create me
My inner self locate me
The folks I hate'll hate me
That's no one, as of lately
Sporty words illustrate me
Let no man castrate me
Let my low points sedate me
Only deaf ears can negate me
Meditation medicate me
Emcees can not escape me
Planet earth's movements shape me
We revolve and rotate
We want you all to notate the
Way that I flow so faithfully
Lives, lessons landscape me
Accept my gifts gratefully
Knowin' excellence won't wait for me
That's why I'm reachin' up and takin' the
Opportunity that was made for me
No goals can dare evade me
So once my mind is made we
Record to high-quality tape we
Distribute we duplicate we
Stay humble in hopes of safety
'Til I'm
buried, they may cremate me
But let me not be too hasty
Switch it up then cut and paste the
Delicacies, damn they tasty
Interests intoxicate me
My senses stimulate me
And they never get pastry flaky
Not one emcee every ate me
So don't ever underrate me
And with no further wait see
How brilliant Bavu Blakes be
I'm able to speak, thankfully
Pleased when I do, frankly
I undid all the tapestry
From scratch, interwove it innately
Let less and less frustrate me
Smooth despite what used to chafe me
Let my voice box resonate me
God force navigate me
Wanna find me, gotta scrape the
Bottom of the contiguous United States we
Don't take hip-hop so playfully
Not surprisin' we risin'
'Cause it's nearly hot as Hades
I blow this hot air on any man
With hopes to deflate me
And bust out of my shell
For he who puts the South on safety
Make additions to this in two-cent increments
you'll never break me
We figured let's try a different style
And I'll end up pullin' it off greatly
Hold up wait the
Beat just sorta delayed me, basically
My mission in this is to innovate the
Parameter of what rap is
Without havin' to overstate the

The scene of the crime on sunset and vine flying on
lines and two dollar wine at 2:39 room 239 sirens
wailing off in my mind
or maybe im just too fucking high ill never know why
life of a fiend obsessive obscene blowing off steam
with no self esteem im starting to scream
im paranoid i need some air i need to stand over the
edge cause i don’t really fucking care about myself
cause i was the one who was born in this hell
now im in hotels huffing narcotics
shit is so hopeless drunk alcoholics junkies
ma you fucked me now im alone and nobody cares or loves
me heart of a stone and everyone knows im a druggie
life is ugly
dear god can i please have a sec of your time im outta
my mind this time im paralyzed
and its still i that i despise woooo oh sadness drips
into my days and schizo flips of purple haze
purple haze
ive seen comatoses from drug overdoses im drowning in
vodka feels like its oceans we’re oceans apart and now
i have no one nothing weak cause part of me’s crushing
fucking destruction my head is concussing im in the
abyss clenching my fist now i wanna die no i wanna live
cause death has been on me since i was a kid
and im still standing on these church steps with my
heartbeat pounding through my chest praying to god
playing with death and this hatred has my mindset
on 2 matches and a can of gas burning off my skin to
hide my darkest days and sins of the past and broken
glass in my nightmares when youre not there but youre
never there and i cant fight it in the mirror see you
everywhere
and i still spit at my refection and this wickedness
rejection vicious cycles bad intentions my demise!!!!
and its still i that i despise woooo oh sadness drips
into my days and schizo flips of purple haze
purple haze
junkies alone in this world whooo oh
oh sadness drips into my days and schizo flips of
purple haze purple haze
crushing fucking destruction my head is concussing im
in the abyss clenching my fist now i wanna die no i

I'm into kickin' my own ass
That's a very bad habit
You forget things
It helps that
Kinda like being high a lot
It gives me a..."New York" feelin'
People around just can't seem to catch on
My charismatic ways
They call me a wannabe philosopher
..I don't think so...
I just like to be opinionated
I'm no Confucius, my friends
I feel like a child sometimes
I act on my feelings when I do
I play with words, not always when I write
I'm uncomfortable---nervous---about
Letting people read my work

I spent my time, wasting time, losing time
On a dark day afternoon
Slowly but surely I find I go out of my mind
On the dark side of the moon
Cause no one ever told you it would be this hard
No one gonna break this foolish broken homeless heart
Hold her, I'm gonna hold her
I'm gonna cry
Easy come, easy go
I am who I am and I know what I know
Now I, yeah
I'm gonna be just fine
I'm gonna be just fine
Now I
I'm gonna be just fine
I'm gonna be just fine
You'll see
But I've been bruised, been burned by a light
How can you live with yourself
How can you live with yourself
Cause I don't know what you mean when you say you don't know who I am
I don't care, I don't feel any more, this is not what I plan
Easy come, easy go
I am who I am and I know what I know
Now I, yeah
I'm gonna be just fine
I'm gonna be just fine
Now I
I'm gonna be just fine
I'm gonna be just fine
