Sublime with Rome is a musical collaboration between Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh, formerly of the band Sublime, and singer and guitarist Rome Ramirez. The group chiefly performed songs by Sublime, which was fronted by Bradley Nowell until his death in 1996. The suffix "Rome" refers to the singer's first name. Gaugh announced on December 10, 2011 that he has decided to leave the band.
Ramirez began performing with Gaugh and Wilson in 2009, where they played under the name "Sublime", until Nowell's estate issued a legal challenge to the use of the trademarked name for a venture not including Nowell. As a result, they changed their name to "Sublime with Rome" in January 2010. The group played at the 2009 Smokeout Festival and embarked on their first tour in 2010, and released their debut album, Yours Truly, on July 12, 2011.
In 1997 Bud Gaugh and Eric Wilson started Long Beach Dub Allstars, their first project since Bradley Nowell's death. The band played Sublime songs as well as new material. After Long Beach Dub Allstars split up in 2002, Wilson went on to form Long Beach Shortbus, while Gaugh went on to form Eyes Adrift and Volcano (which both featured Meat Puppets guitarist/vocalist Curt Kirkwood).
Rome (/ˈroʊm/; Italian: Roma pronounced [ˈroːma] ( listen); Latin: Rōma) is a city and special comune ("Roma Capitale") in Italy. Rome is the capital of Italy and the capital of Lazio (Latin: Latium). With 2.8 million residents in 1,285.3 km2 (496.3 sq mi), it is also the country's largest and most populated comune and fourth-most populous city in the European Union by population within city limits. Between 3.2 and 3.7 million people live in the Rome metropolitan area. The city is located in the central-western portion of the Italian Peninsula, on the Tiber River within the Lazio region of Italy.
Rome's history spans two and a half thousand years. It was the capital city of the Roman Kingdom, the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire, which was the dominant power in Western Europe and the lands bordering the Mediterranean for over seven hundred years from the 1st century BC until the 7th century AD and the city is regarded as one of the birthplaces of western civilization. Since the 1st century AD Rome has been the seat of the Papacy and, after the end of Byzantine domination, in the 8th century it became the capital of the Papal States, which lasted until 1870. In 1871 Rome became the capital of the Kingdom of Italy, and in 1946 that of the Italian Republic.
Cameron Jibril Thomaz (born September 8, 1987), better known by the stage name Wiz Khalifa, is an American rapper. He released his debut album, Show and Prove, in 2006, and signed to Warner Bros. Records in 2007. His Eurodance-influenced single, "Say Yeah", received urban radio airplay, charting on the Rhythmic Top 40 and Hot Rap Tracks charts in 2008. Khalifa parted with Warner Bros. and released his second album, Deal or No Deal, in November 2009. He released the mixtape Kush and Orange Juice as a free download in April 2010; he then signed with Atlantic Records. He is also well known for his debut single for Atlantic, "Black and Yellow", which peaked at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. His debut album for the label, Rolling Papers, was released on March 29, 2011.
Khalifa was born on September 8, 1987 to a mother and a father serving in the military. His parents divorced when Khalifa was about three years old. His parents' military service caused him to move regularly: Khalifa lived in Germany, the United Kingdom, and Japan before settling in Pittsburgh where he attended Taylor Allderdice High School.
She's got a knack for hurting me,
Is it the words she says.
The only thing that keeps me here,
Are her eyes in the morning.
I've packed my things a thousand times, ooh.
And I've faked believe all her lies, for the last time.
The other day I drew myself a map,
So I could figure out your head.
The canvass dripped with my sweat, blood and tears.
And she hated every thread.
I've packed my things a thousand times, ooh.
And I've faked believe all your lies, for the last time.
Take it or leave it.
Cause I'm really leaving.
I've purchased my ticket to New York.
First thing in the morning,
Kissing you good morning,
And whispering goodbye.
Take it or leave it.
Cause I'm really leaving.
I've made up my mind this time
There's no coming back for you
Oh, there's no coming back for you.
Told her no purse is more important,
Than the knowledge in her head.
She grabbed her shit just like a baby.
I can't believe the words I said
The only thing I ever see her read,
Are those damn gossip magazines.
They fill her head with all that nonsense, yeah
So she can fit in with the scene
I've packed my things a thousand times, ooh.
And I've faked believe all her lies, for the last time.
Take it or leave it.
Cause I'm really leaving.
I've purchased my ticket to New York.
First thing in the morning,
Kissing you good morning,
And whispering goodbye.
Take it or leave it.
Cause I'm really leaving.
I've made up my mind this time
There's no coming back for you
Oh, there's no coming back for you.
And I always feel incomplete.
She smothered herself with her own beauty.
And she was born and raised as daddy's princes.
But her gesture is no match for an heiress.
Yea her gesture is no match for an heiress.
Cause I try to love you, try to hold on to,
The feeling that makes me fall for you.
Oh, the feeling that makes me fall...
Take it or leave it.
Cause I'm really leaving.
I've purchased my ticket to New York.
First thing in the morning,
Kissing you good morning,
And whispering goodbye.
Cause I try to love you, try to hold on to,
The feeling that makes me fall for you.
That makes me fall for you.
Take it or leave it.
Cause I'm really leaving.
I've purchased my ticket to New York.
First thing in the morning,
Kissing you good morning,
And whispering goodbye.
Cause I try to love you, try to hold on to,
The feeling that makes me fall for you.
Oh, the feeling that makes me fall
'm spun- just like a raisin in the sun
I'm fried up and the fun has just begun
And I swear- with all the love inside my head
I've gotta dish it out and gotta share
But lately- I've been walkin' this road... searchin' for an end
But I've finally made it out...
Get me from your company (?)
And I'll meet you in the sunlight it's so gold
Ooh show me something I've never seen
And I promise I'll be right there waiting...
I'm free- from all the judgement that you put on me
And I know it pulls and I know it tugs inside
I shake- and just so I can get a breath
Cause if they had it their way they would push me to my death
Cause I've been walkin' this road... searchin' for an end
But I've finally made it out...
Get me from your company (?)
And I'll meet you in the sunlight it's so gold
Ooh show me something I've never seen
And I promise I'll be right there waiting...
And I just don't wanna leave maybe this time...
And watch it grow and die inside...oh we'll watch it grow
...then we'll watch it die alone this time oh it's for real
we'll watch it die...Oooh Wooahh, oh we'll watch it grow and die
Oooh Wooahh, and we'll watch it grow and die
If I could just only ask of one more thing I want from you
Well it would go like this
Would you open up and accept me for the way I am to you,
Get a clue
And if you tell me why I love you but you gotta change your ways,
Well I would say any day
'nd my loves afraid that we have crashed and burned there ain't no sign of repair,
Tell me this isn't fair
Oh and still I wonder why
We're always buzzing by
And each and every night
You know I come home to you
We're at the same old situation
We're at the same old loss of words
We're at the same old situation, here it goes
Once again
We're at the same old situation
We're at the same old loss of words
We're at the same old situation, here it goes
And there could be, girl I just want to walk with you hand in hand,
Back when I was your man
And you hold me, hold me like the world was promising the men,
Tell me this I can tend
And left me up and you shot me down you took me up the sky,
And now I'm wondering why
Yeah I'm struggling now, how you got me singing like a sing a long
Tell me I'm not assigned, I'm out of mine
And still I wonder why
We're always buzzing by
And each and every night
You know I come home to you.
We're at the same old situation
We're at the same old loss of words
We're at the same old situation, here it goes
Once again
We're at the same old situation
We're at the same old loss of words
We're at the same old situation, here it goes
Once again
And I know, and you know
We would be broken but this is not the end
And we both know that I'm not sure
Nowhere left to go.
We're at the same old situation
We're at the same old loss of words
We're at the same old situation, here it goes
Once again
We're at the same old situation
We're at the same old loss of words
We're at the same old situation, here it goes
Once again
I don't want anymore,
It's the same old situation now,
I don't want anymore
We opened up our eyes girl
To see that everything's alright
My vocal chords are healing
From arguing with you all night
Wait a minute cause girl
I mean it when I say
I got to have you
Oh yes indeed
Cause it's my way
Or Pacific Coast highway
Either way you won't find me
And you don't care
Because it's my way
Or Pacific Coast highway
I hit the road you won't find me
And that's all you know
The shell remains been broken
Every word has been said
I'm ready to give you the reigns and control
But not my head
Wait a minute, wait a minute cause girl
I mean it when I say
I got to have you
And oh, you're gonna have to change
If you're gonna stay
Oh yes indeed
Cause it's my way
Or Pacific Coast highway
Either way you won't find me
And you don't care
Because it's my way
Or Pacific Coast highway
I hit the road you won't find me
And that's all you know
I thought you might like to know
I've been doin' just fine
Walkin' on my own lately, yeah
The sun has been shining down on me
Telling me to walk away,
Walk away, walk away
If it were that easy
Then I would be
Far away...
Cause it's my way
Or Pacific Coast highway
Either way you won't find me
And you don't care
I tried to show you
But you never gave reasons
Your attitude's like the seasons
That's all you know
Cause it's my way
Or Pacific Coast highway
Either way you won't find me
And you don't care
I tried to show you
But you never gave reasons
Your attitude's like the seasons
I shake it up, I wake it down my lover's ex
And that's the only opinion of me
You loose me up, then shake me, go and waste away
What other options you give me, oh
But I'm just wasting away
And that's the only option for me
Well I'm just wasting away
Well that's the only option for me
You said destroy
I said let's not make things worser
That's the only thing I see
You build me up to knock me down
You stay above the rest
But I can only escape from you
Well I'm just wasting away
Well that's the only option for me
Well I'm just wasting away
Well that's my only remedy
Shoot it up
The battle's on
Let it take
Let it now
I will be
The only thing
That set [?] beside
I want you to try to be
Big city, suicide, living clear
That's only way for me
I can't break the mold here
And if you judge me, the better see
Well I'm just wasting away
And that's the only remedy
Well I'm just wasting away
So many people runnin
Don't know where they're goin.
Panic and panic and panic
Showing what side is wrong
I need the reason
And I've got to know.
Don't you wish your world was mine?
My only motive
For destruction
Is really really what we are
I need the reason
And I've got to know.
Don't you wish your world was mine?
Don't you wish your...
You open doors and close them
Quicker than the eyes of most.
Can't you see there is hope here
It's time for reaction
Shake me up
Somebody wake me up
I need to fight for my old mate of pollution
The rate of solution
To all of the damage that you've done
Don't you wish your world was mine?
Don't you wish your...
You open doors and close them
Quicker than the eyes of most.
Can't you see there is hope here
It's time for reaction
I realize what's wrong... wrong with your life
Quicker than the eyes of most.
Can't you see there is hope here
It's time for reaction
How can you say, you don't want to know, don't want to know the truth.
How can you say, you don't want to know, don't want to know the truth.
How can you say, you don't want to know, don't want to know the truth.
How can you say, you don't want to know, don't want to know the truth.
And that's alright
Oh, that's ok
And that's alright
I stand my ground in stormy weather
We're pickin' up the pieces that we dropped along the way
We rise and fight and fall together
Anything to forget the problems of yesterday
Whatever they say is not only
Not the only way I know
Whatever they say is not always
Not the only way for me
Whatever they say is not for me
The sun will rise and fade your bruises
But it can never cleanse your body of the wounds and battle scars
We all just fight for some reaction
But you get yours, and I'll get mine, and they'll get theirs
Whatever they say is not only
Not the only way I know
Whatever they say is not always
Not the only way for me
Whatever they say is not only
Not the only way I know
Whatever they say is not for me
They tell us to keep pushing on, on, on
I said we can't, we can't, we can't move much more forward
With our feet pushed hard to the ground-ound-ound
Don't you know how hard it is to heal?
Don't you have any idea what is means?
Whatever they say is not only
Not the only way I know
Whatever they say is not always
Not the only way for me
Whatever they say is not only
Not the only way I know
Whatever they say is not always
Not the only way for me
You take on me
And break apart the everything that makes me man
So I want you to leave
If I ever want to restore my sanity, oh
Baby look at me, I'm the fool
I tear myself in two, for the vision of me and you
Baby don't you know
Every time you come around, girl you got me thinking
That I'm gonna loose it
And every time I talk to you, you better listen
Cause you need to choose between,
The things that will lift you up, and will break you down
Oh, baby don't you know, yeah
Just listen to the words that I got to say
You want to do it your own,
And go about it your way
I don't suggest that you, walk that path alone
You don't have the protection or the knowledge, girl
To prevent you from the bad harm of the world
I wanna say that you're, more than welcome to leave with me.
But, now baby don't you know your man's a fool
I tear myself in two, for the vision of lovin' you
Every time you come around, girl you got me thinking
I'm gonna loose it
And every time I talk to you, you better listen
Cause you need to choose between,
The things that will lift you up, and will break you down
Oh, baby don't you know, yeah
Stop, wait, slow down a minute, you're moving too fast baby.
Stop, wait, slow down a minute, you're movin'
Don't you wanna just, slow it down, for the sake of your mercy girl?
Don't you, don't you, don't you wanna slow it down?
Now you know
Every time I talk to you, you better listen
Cause you need to choose between,
The things that will lift you up, and will wither your soul
Cause girl you'd better know now
Every time I talk to you, you better listen
Cause you need to choose between,
The things that will lift you up, and will wither your soul
Cause girl you'd better know now
Every time I talk to you, you better listen
Can you save me from myself
I don't think so
I'm my own worst enemy
And that's, and that's
Perfectly fine with me
Because I live my whole life
Living this exactly
I don't need the things
That you shove up in my face
I live by my own standards
And I'm happy living, living life
My world
Is a little bit safer
And I drink
Malt liquor in paper
I get high
Get high of the vapor
It's my world, I'm a little bit safer
Stack up my arms
Cuz I'm coming in swingin'
Might kill my hand
With the fury of a demon
Gotta catch up and my head's up in the clouds
And I like it that way and there's no coming down
Cause I seek and destroy
And your world is my new toy
I guess I'll look [?]
And I swear to God,
It's weighin' down on your mind
My world
Is a little bit safer
And I drink
Malt liquor in paper
I get high
Get high of the vapor
It's my world, I'm a little bit safer
A little bit safer now
What are you waiting for?
A grand finale?
Where's my throne and crown
In my head, I'm the king of the whole damn nation
And tonight's the night that it burns all down
Eyes sit like voodoo
Heads are messed like hoodoo
But I'm perfectly happy inside my head
Watch as you crazy, makes people think me insane
In my world I know I can make it
In my world, nobody can come and take me down
There's no more controlling you
What are you waiting for?
In my world
In my world
I'm a little bit safer
In my world

Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
No I won't come down
I hold my breath
Because I love the taste
I stay happier
With the best of words thats placed to waste
And because nobody or nothing can help me from all my troubles
And say for my only one I'd escape
Traveling around the world
Finding my place
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I won't come down
Can you feel it
Got my head in the clouds and I can't come down

Cut out a puncher
And shoved it in my face
Nobody or nothing cant help us out in construction
Because we're coming out to lay the waste
Traveling around the world
Serving the taste
