Them winners who tread
The battle field
Grow deaf by horrifying anthem
Of human moans that has begun
The sharpened oil soaked stakes
Are begin occupied
By the defeated ones who claim
Mercy before the tyrant Vlad
Mercy, mercy, please kill us fast
Mercy, mercy, don't make us suffer
The impaler wants to eliminate
The invaders of his empire
The impaler wants to hear the cry
For mercy at this feet
The roaring of the wind
And the misteries of the night
Always take you towards victory
Your blessed sword under the order the dragon
My eyes won't pretend
I didn't know you were close
I can smell your breath
Through a freshly painted door
Stand here in your coat
While I pour three more glasses of burgundy
And you can lick the dust from the bottle
Wall's bricked with books
Pages bricked with words
Each mark has been stained in your honor
Ground shadow staggers restless
From the window cross the candle to the corner
My blood and water's warm as you near me
I'm not begging for mercy
I see no love of mercy in you
I'm not begging for mercy
I'm only waiting for the sound
Of the morning birds
To send you away
Wax is cooled, hard
Sights is going past the yard
In this house I make more shadows than you
Stand there in your hate
While I drink from the second burgundy
And you can rattle the glass cross your belly
I'm not begging for mercy
I see no love of mercy in you
I'm not begging for mercy
I'm only waiting for the sound
Of the morning birds
To send you away
I'm not begging for mercy
I'm not begging for mercy
I'm only waiting for the sound
Of the morning birds to swallow you...
Here I am a sinner broken and in need of You
Take my life and wash my fears away
For You are the 'Great I am', rest assured, I feel Your hand
Holding me until the darkness clears
A Father to the fatherless, redeemer of my soul
My Life is Yours forever, my heart will always know
Your mercy saved me, mercy made me whole
Your mercy found me, called me as Your own
Here I stand a child of Yours broken and in need of You
Break these chains and wash my guilt away
Healer of my brokenness, my weary soul will find its rest
You are my strength, the lifter of my head
You're greater than my yesterdays, You hold me close today
You're the Lord of my tomorrows, my heart will always say
You're greater than my yesterdays, You hold me close today
You're the Lord of my tomorrows, my heart will always say
Your mercy saved me, mercy made me whole
Your mercy found me, called me as Your own
Your mercy saved me, mercy made me whole, me whole
Your mercy found me, called me as Your own
You called me as Your own
You called me as Your own
Thank You for Your mercy
Thank You for Your mercy
Your mercy saved me, mercy made me whole
Your mercy found me, called me as Your own
Your mercy saved me, mercy made me whole
Your mercy found me, called me as Your own
We have slaughtered
In the garden of beauty
Digging graves instead of planting
Mercy for the crucified
A bitter justice
Begging eternity for love
We're nothing
We're everything
I am nothing
Yet I am everybody
We're nothing
And yet we are
Wisdom lights up life's road
I walk through fields that haunt my dreams, this time I fear it's broken me,
I tasted you so brief yet sweet, the morning comes it's choking me,
It's the way you always left me coming down,
In a sea of painted whispers did I drown
I'm so tired, I'm so wired,
It's not enough to pray for Mercy, I've tried,
I'm so tired, I'm so wired,
It's not enough to pray for Mercy, I've tried...
I battle through these thunderclouds to find my way to fields of gold,
Somehow I always see your face,
Things aren't always what they seem, pretenders all just falling at your
feet,
C'mon love, I reached the tree now let me see,
It's the way you always left me coming down,
In a sea of painted whispers did I drown
I'm so tired, I'm so wired,
It's not enough to pray for Mercy, I've tried,
I'm so tired, I'm so wired,
It's not enough to pray for Mercy, I've tried...
And they say that you can reach the sky upon your knees and without pride,
I'm screaming, but my needs have chained me to the ground...
Shine for me, walk with me now...
Mercy - pure and simple
Longing - cold and hollow
With sweet breath you'd come to warm me
But I held on too hard to only a memory
You lie there on the swollen ground
Deserted in your heart
Still longing for what yesterdays lost
And for all that tomorrow might bring
The passion lost - taken, stolen
The dreams we had and we shared - shattered, broken
With kind words you'd come to soothe me
But I go blind and filled with fear
Would send you away from me
There is no hope in regretting now
All the pain that we could not see
We both knew what we wanted
And we took it believing it free
In his heart he's thinking that he's Ours
Teach him to be Ours
In his heart he couldn't ever find
'cause he might take his life
Teach him to be Ours
We went blind
Waiting for a sign, just waiting for a sign
Couldn't see and dying
Waiting for a sign, just waiting for a sign
It's hard pretending that it's not
Still we're reaching
What do we want?
We went blind
Waiting for a sign, just waiting for a sign
Could'nt sleep and dying
Waiting for a sign, just waiting for a sign
Mercy for the meek
Mercy for the meek
Mercy for the meek
Mercy for the meek, i won't let you go...
You live for times of solace
Within a sign there's a promise
Don't lose all faith cause
You shake at night it's in
The art of the process
In another rhyme beyond this place
The healing's fast enough...
Done a thousand times a thousand ways
Until you've had enough
...It's mercy you're asking for
Cheating life by taking more
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more...
The loss of prize possessions
To cure the mind's obsession
Could trade your soul for that
Normal life elite to all objections...
See beyond all tears and broken years
Your senses giving up
Lose all confidence at your expense
Mercy on me, oh, say that I'm forgiven
And wrap your arms around me
To your goodness I surrender
Without mercy where is goodness?
Won't you have mercy on me?
Mercy on me, oh, say that I'm forgiven
And wrap your arms around me
To your goodness I surrender
Without mercy where is goodness?
I can€™t seem to find the words to say the things I want to
Say to you, I must be burnin€™ out.
One night, a long, long time ago,
My mother told me I should go to you,
With all my thoughts and dreams.
Please, please tell me,
What you gonna do, when every princess comes to you singin€™?
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation for my soul.
It€™s just that I can€™t justify
How you can let them do the things they do.
Well, I€™d let them have it good.
They laugh and totally forget,
That all creation is because of you,
How do you do such things?
Please, please tell me,
What you gonna do when all the losers cling to you, singin€™?
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy
Mercy on my soul.
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation for my soul.
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy,
Mercy on my soul.
I stood in the water
In the middle month of winter
My camel skin was torture
I was in a state of nature
The wind, sir, it was wicked
I was so alone
Just as I predicted
My followers were gone
And I cried `Mercy'
Have mercy upon me
And I got down on my knees
Thrown into a dungeon
Bread and water was my portion
Faith - my only weapon
To rest the devil's legion
The speak-hole would slide open
A viper's voice would plead
Thick with innuendo
Syphilis and Greed
And she cried `Mercy'
Have mercy upon me
And I told her to get down on her knees
In a garden full of roses
My hands, tied behind me
My cousin was working miracles
I wondered if he'd find me
The moon was turned toward me
Like a platter made of gold
My death, it almost bored me
So often was it told
And I cried `Mercy'
I cried mercy on me
Cryind `Mercy'
Have mercy on me
Yeah-yeah
Whoa...
Oh...
Yeah...
Yeah yeah yeah
It's like your blood runs through me baby
(Baby)
And I can't get you out of my vein
A lust for you electric lady
(Whoa...)
The affliction to my pain
And the skies will fall
Without you I'm inside of a hurricane
I would sell my soul
No, no-no-no, no-no-no, no
I need mercy It's the insanity eating up the man in me, girl
I need mercy
All of my fire's, my burning desire's, for you, see
I need mercy
And it's just so painful to sit here and think about you with them, oh no
I need mercy
I pray one day that you will be with me, girl, I would never let you go
I...
Bloodshot eyes and I'm so wasted
Why...
Why do I fight when I can't make it
I'm at the end of my rope, baby
(Whoa...)
I'm pulled apart from all the strain
I would break the law
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't take
I would sell my soul
But I can't, but I can't, but I can't, no 'cause
I need mercy
It's the insanity eating up the man in me, girl
I need mercy
All of my fire's, my burning desire's, for you, see
I need mercy
And it's just so painful to sit here and think about you with them, oh no
I need mercy
I pray one day that you will be with me, girl, I would never let you go
For you girl I would sell my soul
I would even break the law
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't take, oh yeah
And even if the skies would fall
I pray to God you'll hear my song
Without you I'm inside the hurricane
I need mercy It's the insanity eating out the man in me, girl
I need mercy
All of my fire, my burning desires
I need mercy
And it's just so painful to sit here and think about you with them, oh no
I need mercy
(Oh no)
I pray one day that you will be with me, girl, I would never let you go
Oh no-no
No-no-no no no
Yeah...
I need mercy
I need mercy
I need mercy
I pray to God I'd hold you again
I need mercy
Mercy baby, mercy baby, mercy mercy mercy
I need mercy
Mery mercy baby, mercy baby, mercy mercy mercy
I need mercy
Mercy baby, mercy baby, mercy mercy mercy
I need mercy
Mery mercy baby, mercy baby, mercy mercy mercy
I need mercy
Mercy baby, mercy baby, mercy mercy mercy
I need mercy
Mercy - when I melt in the kiss by the words and the whispers you sing me
Mercy - I'm frail in the kill by submission and will that you bring me
Mercy - when I'm nothing but ego you slap me to let go and sleep free
Now I sleep free...
You're my toybox, your my memories
when I smell your skin you just make my whole world weep
I'm at your feet, I'm at your feet
Mercy - when the grey turns to black and the wave's on my back, you make me smile
Mercy - is the trauma no martyr you crush into pleasure and downtown
Mercy - it's the shining of you that just breaks me in two like a lifeline - you're my lifeline.
I'm the idiot to your poetry when you burn you bleach
Everything and all I need is at your feet, Is at your feet.
Mercy - are the licks and the lips of temptation, just tricks, not for playing?
Mercy - are you the camera suck, gun slut to headphone fuck holes in my being
Mercy - are you everything which put the sex into bitch, just faking, do you fake it?
So I celebrate your chemistry
If you bond with me
I could make your whole world sweet,
I went thru too many people
I went thru heaven and hell
I went from rome to bagdad
Too many stories to tell
I lived thru too many aeons
I've risen up and I fell the fall
I have been there and I have done that
I've seen it all and all
My time is running like water
Deeper I dive and deeper
Last of nine lives of the cat
I saved my soul for the reaper
What do you mean by that
Mercy is all you get
Do what you won't regret
I used to take your loyalty for granted
I could have bet my life on you
That's why it hurt so bad to find out
How you took me for a fool
So please don't come and tell me
That we can still make a brand new start
You 've shown your talent for treason
And today I know who you really are
There's no turning back and
Don't beg for mercy 'cause you sealed your fate
You had all your chances but now it's too late
Don't beg for mercy when all hope is gone
You've got to pay for all that you've done
Before I learnt, you thought you were so clever
As the crooked master of the game
Now you must face the consequences
With no-one but yourself to blame
So please don't come and tell me
That we can still find an easy way out
I've got no room for forgiveness
You just fell from grace, you'd better give up the fight
Or you could only make things worse and
Don't beg for mercy 'cause you sealed your fate
You had all your chances but now it's too late
Don't beg for mercy when all hope is gone
You've got to pay for all that you've done
Don't beg for mercy 'cause you sealed your fate
You had all your chances but now it's too late
Don't beg for mercy when all hope is gone
You've got to pay for all that you've done
Don't beg for mercy 'cause you sealed your fate
Snatching our breath till it dims up your chest
How much pain can I manifest
When I come to wreck, ripping through your flesh, techs
My killers you'll never see, invisible invisible are we
Unseen like ghosts, strike like infrared beams make toast
We smoke the most but never bump the most
Our figgas are like a ropes around throats
Better fin to attack, cause we cloak in the image of smoke
Leaving motherfuckers broke like a king of jokes, mercy
I know not of a feeling, but the thriller
Of a killer gets my adrenaline rushing
Never stopping, watching niggas dropping
More breaking, blood gushing, I done opened the wounds
As I destroy cities with the fools, and masoons
Your doom has awaited, all your mercy is forsaken, time to die
Got to kill them all, every nigga fin to fall when I kill them all
Found them up in bombs, yelling stomach punches
Yelling and running K of dynasty coming
[Verse 2]
More of this contender, go-rilla, more member I be
It'd be a infinity, hoes want to get rid of me
Fin to be found dead and deceased
This ain't no game, ain't a damn thing changed
Cause I came to bring the pain
Glock ass still fits running on they head
While they play it I rise up in chains
Hag in here, hag in here, more deadly than anyone's intention
It had to be, more casualties
While I'm in more blemishes than fatal infections
Slice them up like a wolverine, but I use a machete and a guillotine
Want to stop like a king on my god damn dream
And now mark and ass niggas recognize my team
(Chorus - 4x)
Murder-er in me, I love to see you bleed
[Z-Ro]
The murderous feeling is killing your kin
And tripping them niggas up with a 4-5
Hit the ground and running bud, then I probably bumping in blood
A fast thug fin to lose his life, motherfucking nigga from Texas
Steady with the dumb plexers, by the hand when I'm kicking your ass
And everybody better ball on
Cause I fuck around and y'all gone and a nigga like me
Cause I'm blessed with a tight 22, AK47, 3-57, Mac 11
Balling and and a 25, bulletproof vest and a sharpened shank
Motherfucker your body gone stank, I'm flawless
Swinging and leaving them jawless
One of these niggas are about to bleed
Running with the big dog follow my lead
They following they mama straight when we
Put him in the streets I'm a regular competitor
To the niggas that I want to act surely
Everybody want to live, let the early bird get the worm
Run up in the corner store bright early
Even though I be hanging with thugs
Giving me mugs, and I do a lot of drugs till I pass out
When I smell a dirty rat up all in my motherfucking face
I'm hunting they motherfucking ass out
Want to be stepping and pulling my whip
And I'm ready to go to war with them niggas
That be stepping and pulling back they fucking up grind
It's going down load the clip in the gun and I'm making them run
A gorilla nigga evermore buck and he died, but who was the nigga
That's talking down, don't really want me to get an attitude
I'm slapping haters up out the niggas that think of my trigger
Won't be getting no automatic beatdown but that's what I live for no mercy
(Chorus - 4x)
[Verse 4]
Walking the land of a naked world
Looking down up on my enemies in vein
With a mind full of deadly games, I'ma serve your aim
Shouldn't of killed putting holes in your frame, feeling no remorse
As deadly force overcomes my thugs so bare witness
Sense of relentless, vengeance, and 24 victims of wickedness
By the hills of homicide, cause everytime I pull a whip and close
I can hear the sounds of bodies from the victim of 17 and reloads
Did you really believe that you could platinum-sieve a nigga like me
I was born to murder the world, but killers and g's and evil deeds
It'll be a whole lot fly bringing
Some saying if you run up on me the wrong way
I'ma be forced to pull a AK
Bust your ass in the head when the lead spray
My day, my day know you the fourth guy
To a region in mouth no time to shine
You the dead victim, of reincarnated
Words & Music by Vonda Shepard
I was raised on nothing, so I save my money
Emotional poverty, well I'm used to running
How amazing you make me feel
If I am crazy, don't wanna know what's real
You're like a wave of heaven and you're breaking on me
To change the destiny of a girl that's lonely
But how amazing and how surreal
To live with a desire that you may never feelI can sell everything but my soul
I have never settled just to play some kind of role
I have give everything baby but my hand
Mercy can you save me from this wonderful man
I feel like a can
I kick myself down the street
I'm crushed for a while
Then I get on my feet
I loved the illusive in every man I saw
I draw them to me like they were the last straw
I can sell everything baby but my soul
I have never settled just to play some kind of role
I have given everything baby but my hand
Mercy can you save me from this wonderful man

Mercy ringtone on your mobile phone
I don't doubt your heart
I won't make you tell
I won't break your arm
I won't make you cold
I won't waste your time
I don't think you're wrong
Already suffered
Enough to last for two lives
Not half as much as most guys
Mercy Mercy Mercy
You won't stay alone
You don't see yourself
You don't mean your words
Already suffered
Enough to last for two lives
Not half as much as most guys
Your pillow don't get wet when I go to bed and weep
Your eyes don't turn red when I don't get my sleep
Your world don't fall apart when my phone don't ring
You say you feel for me but you don't feel a thing
Mercy have mercy on me mercy have mercy on me
A little bit of understanding and a little bit of sympathy
And a little bit of mercy on me (eu-eu-eu eu-eu-eu)
You don't like the clothes I wear and you don't like my friends
You don't like my job or the town we're livin' in
You don't like my mama and you don't like my dog
I bet if the truth was known you don't like this song
She has the face of a saint
Has the grace and the strength
She’s the one who talks the language of love…
She’s a friend who is always home
Gives more than you or I could ever know
She talks the language of love…
[Lead:]
She’s not afraid, of the fight
She’s not afraid, to pay the price
She knows what it means
She knows what we need
[Chorus:]
Mercy
Oh sweet mercy
Don’t stop talking' to me mercy yea
Sweet, sweet mercy
Keep on talking' to me
She’ll take the hand of the believer
Wash the feet of the deceiver
She always speaks the language of love…
She’ll cry with the crier
Lay down her life for the liar
She has become the language of love…
[Lead:]
[Chorus:]
[Lead:]
Oh yea!
[Chorus:]
Oh yea mercy!
Sweet mercy
Don’t stop talking' to me mercy yea
Sweet, sweet mercy

On bloody roses see you smile
Ooh your screaming heart is bleeding
Black and beating loud
You got no prayer nowhere

I feel your face embrace the sweat
Fall from my head
My name is vain and flames you cry
Ooh and your bloody lips you raise to kiss
Away goodbye
You wicked bitch I'll take you
Take you away and make you mine
I'll make you cry for mercy
I'll make you cry out loud
You're gonna lie and curse me
Hurt me, burn me now
Gonna make you cry for mercy
Nobody never gonna hear you now
I'll make you mine but first I

Out loud
Ooh out loud
Ooh out loud

Angel of mercy, how did you find me?
Where did you read my story?
Pulled from the papers, desperate and hardened
Seeking a momentary fix
All I wanted to say, all I wanted to do
Has fallen apart now
All I wanted to feel, I wanted to love
It's all my fault now
A tragedy I fear
Angel of mercy, how did you find me?
How did you pick me up again?
Angel of mercy, how did you move me?
Why am I on my feet again?
And I see you, whoa
And I feel you, whoa
Fortress of daylight, caught me on standby
Waiting to catch the quickest plane
Fly me to nowhere, it's better than somewhere
That?s where I?ve been and nothing?s changed
All I wanted to say, all I wanted to do
Has fallen apart now
All I wanted to feel
I wanted to love, it's all my fault now
A tragedy for sure
Angel of mercy, how did you find me?
How did you pick me up again?
Angel of mercy, how did you move me?
Why am I on my feet again?
And I see you, whoa
And I feel you, whoa
I'm so lost in you
A tragedy it seemed to be, but what now?
What now?
A tragedy it seemed to be, but what now?
Angel of mercy, how did you find me?
How did you pick me up again?
Angel of mercy, how did you move me?
Why am I on my feet again?
And I see you, whoa
And I feel you, whoa
I feel you, whoa
Well I have lived ten years plus ten
And ten and ten again
I have seen too much to pretend
And then you wanted to come in
I have survived all of the lies
They made me wise
The locks and walls and the peace it buys
Still when I look into your eyes
It's a surprise when you say
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy baby
What do you want from me
well I plead Mercy, mercy baby
I do not know what this all means
It's been awhile
Since I've been stylin' in
Just my jacket and my jeans
It hurts to walk
It hurts to talk
It hurts to think about it
Shout about it
Could I be sure without a doubt
That you could never live without
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
Mercy baby
What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy, mercy baby
What do you want from me
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
I want to fall in you
Crawl in you
Surrender
All in you now
Could I be sure in you
Pure in you
Finding the cure in you
Now I plead
Have mercy on me
Now I am kneeling at the altar
In the temple of your eyes
And I am asking for a miracle
I have been too long paralyzed when you say
Get up
Stand up
Climb the rope of hope
and open up again
All the peace you say is promised me
seems too much to comprehend
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
Mercy baby
What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy baby
what Can this girl believe
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Honey just hold on tight
And I'll make it all go away
Hold on
It's gonna be alright
Mercy darling
Mercy

It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
When it comes to my sound which is the champion sound
Believe! Believe!

Drop it to the floor
Make that ass shake
Woah make the ground move, that’s an ass quake
Built a house up on that ass, that’s an ass state
Roll my weed on it, that’s an ass tray
Say Ye, say Ye, don’t we do this err’ day-day?
I work them long nights, long nights to get a pay day
Finally got paid, now I need shade and a vacay
And niggas still hatin’, so much hate I need an AK
Now we out in Paris, yeah I’m Perrierin’
White girls politicin’ that’s that Sarah Palin
Gettin’ high, Californicatin’

Lamborghini Mercy
Your chick she so thirsty
I’m in that two seat Lambo
With your girl she tryna jerk me
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
When it comes to my sound which is the champion sound
Believe! Believe!
[Verse 2: Pusha T]
It’s prime time, my top back, this pimp game hoe
I’m red leather, this cocaine, I’m Rick James hoe
I’m bill droppin’, Ms. Pacman is pill poppin’ ass hoe
I’m poppin’ too, these blue dolphins need two coffins
All she want is some heel money
All she need is some bill money
He take his time, he counts it out
I weighs it up, that’s real money
Check the neck, check the wrist
Them heads turnin’, that’s exorcist
My Audemar like Mardi Gras
That’s Swiss time and that’s excellence
Two door preference
Roof gone George Jefferson
That white frost on that pound cake
So your Duncan Heinz is irrelevant
Lambo, Mercy-lago, she go wherever I go
Wherever we go we do it pronto
Lamborghini Mercy
Your chick she so thirsty
I’m in that two seat Lambo
With your girl she tryna jerk me
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
When it comes to my sound which is the champion sound
Believe! Believe!
Well it is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
In the dancehall, and who no have teeth will run pon them gums
Caw when time it comes to my sound, which is the champion sound
The bugle has blown the many times, and it still have one more time
left
Caw the amount of stripe weh deh pon our shoulder
[Verse 3: Kanye West]
Let the suicide doors up
I do suicides on the tour bus
I do suicides on the private jet
You know what that mean, I’m fly to death
I step in Def Jam building like I’m the shit
Tell ‘em “give me fifty million or I’mma quit”
Most rappers taste level ain’t at my waist level
Turn up the bass ’til it’s up in your face level
Don’t do no press but I get the most press, kid
Plus your my bitch, make your bitch look like Precious
Something’ ’bout Mary she gone off that Molly
Now the whole party is melted like Dalí
Now everybody is movin’ they body
Don’t sell me apartment, I move in the lobby
Niggas is loiterin’ just to feel important
You gon see lawyers and niggas in Jordans
[Verse 4: 2 Chainz]
Now ketchup to my campaign
Coupe the color of mayonnaise
I’m drunk and high at the same time
Drinkin’ champagne on the airplane
Spit rounds like the gun range
Beat it up like Rampage
100 bands, cut ya girl now your girl need a bandaid
Grade A, A1, chain the color of Akon
Black diamonds backpack around me
Cosigned by Louis Vuitton
Horse power, horse power
All this Polo on I got horse power
Pound of this cost 4 thousand
I make it rain, she want more showers
Rain pourin’, all my cars is foreign
All my broads is foreign, money tall like Jordan
Lamborghini Mercy
Your chick she so thirsty
I’m in that two seat Lambo
With your girl she tryna jerk me
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
When it comes to my sound which is the champion sound
Believe! Believe!
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
When it comes to my sound which is the champion sound
I met a man responsible
For an unforgivable crime
We were at a bar and he said to me
I’m out, I’ve done my time
But you know I will always be begging for mercy
A few seats down at the corner of the bar
Sat a mother of two
She said she’d given up her babies for
To start her life anew
All that we’ve done we hang on to
All that we’ve done we belong to
All that we’ve done carries on
Now I feel like the lucky one
Unlike how I felt before
Cause thankfully what I’ve done wrong,
The guilt I can ignore
You know I won’t be beggin for
I won’t be asking for
I won’t be desperate for mercy
Mercy
Death growing inside me
Feel it coming on strong
Lift me up to god above
Oh lord where i belong
Death growing inside me
Feel it coming on strong
Take me down to hell below
Oh lord it won't be long
Mercy
Death growing inside me
Feel it coming on strong
Lift me up to god above
Oh lord where i belong
Death walks behind
You feel it coming on strong
Take me down to hell below
Oh lord it won't be long
Have mercy on me Oh God according to Your love
Cleanse me from my iniquity wash me from my sin
Against You only have I done this sin and worked this evil in Your sight
Take me back where I can be whole again
'cause all I want Oh Lord is to be in Your light
Because Your love, it gives new life to me
The more I have of You, the more that I can believe that Your love,
it can set me free
Oh Lord I know I need Your grace and mercy
Have mercy on me
Oh God according to Your love
Help me to see more of You
I got nothing but love for you honey
It don't matter if you ain't got money
I got chills running down from my head to my feet
But my temperature's rising I can feel the heat
Cupid ain't got nothing on you, boy
You keep me up until early morning
Lord, I swear, you outta come with a warning
I feel so high I get weak in the knees
I ain't gonna lie, I love the way that you tease
You got me beggin', beggin' mercy
CHORUS
I quit, I give in
Cuz there's no way to win at this game
If this love is a sin
Then I'll be going down in flames
Never gonna be the same
Oh, mercy
I've been feelin' hot and bothered
You got a way that's like no other
You found my weakness and you tightened your grip
And, I've been held a captive to that night ever since
So, lock me up and throw away the key, boy
If your lovin' is a crime, I surrender
Go and take me baby as your prisoner
I'm where I wanna be, crying mercy
CHORUS
I quit, I give in
Cuz there's no way to win at this game
If this love is a sin
Then I'll be going down in flames
Never gonna be the same
There is my kite caught around a signpost
The sign says, ?You are almost there?
So I was right, there is a Heaven
Very near, very near
There are no fires of hell
There is only mercy
There are no fires of hell
There is only mercy
Some days my kite goes where I cannot see
And I feel happy for its freedom
When it's tangled in trees and wires
I know it's my own fault, all my fault
There are no fires of hell
There is only mercy
There are no fires of hell
There is only mercy
One day my kite will escape forever
And I will jump to catch the trailing string
Wishes and wants will fall from my pocket
As I wave, full of peace
There are no fires
There is only mercy
There are no fires of hell
There is only mercy
There are no fires
There are no fires
There is only mercy
There is only mercy
Mercy, mercy
There are no fires
Aaah aah aah aah aah aaaah
Just wanna love, don't wanna care
But we ain't goin' anywhere
As long as I, can't put these thoughts to rest
Of you and her a time before
Did you love her even more?
For all I know
Those words you said, their' in her bed
Are they the same you used on me
Honestly
[Chorus:]
If someone's out there watching over me
Show me there's a better way
Something just to ease the pain
Tonight I cross my heart and hope to die
this isn't who I wanna be
Have mercy over me
I ask no questions tell no lies
I got no need for alibies
But that ain't why I'm diggin' up the past
I should have seen it from the start
You only love with half a heart
Now I know why
I know it's wrong I can't go on
Though in my heart I'll always feel
You were for real
[Chorus:]
If someone's out there watching over me
Show me there's a better way
Something just to ease the pain
Tonight I cross my heart and hope to die
this isn't who I wanna be
Have mercy over me
Aaah aah aah aah aah aaaah
Have mercy over me
Aaah aah aah aah aah aaaah
I know it's wrong I can't go on
Though in my heart I'll always feel
You were for real
[Chorus:]
If someone's out there watching over me
Show me there's a better way
Something just to ease the pain
Tonight I cross my heart and hope to die
this isn't who I wanna be
Have mercy over me
Aaah aah aah aah aah aaaah
would you tell me please
what happened to me
I know I was there
but I have no memory
would you give me a picture
would you give me a trigger word
would you tell me where was I
when the color-me-in sky came down
this is not my fault
this is not my fault
this is not my fault
for this one
I need mercy
this is not mine
these thoughts that blind me
this unfounded fear
this constantly seeking escape
alone, restless and yearning
I feel like I have felt before
when I drank away all of my problems
until I drank myself on the floor
this is not my fault
this is not my fault
this is not my fault
for this, I need mercy
and I know that I am not healthy
yeah, but who really is
at least I am trying something
at least I am willing to give in
I know that this is a never ending process
this growing up thing
yeah but, sometimes, life on life's terms
means that I do not get to win
this is not my fault
this is not my fault
this is not my fault
this is not my fault
for this one, I need mercy
give me mercy
Flirting with disaster,
Oh she'd do it if I asked her
If I, was your master, mister
Gonna get em up faster.
Gotta get some baby, gotta get it, put it in,
Cause you're never gonna win, if your never gonna sin,
You gotta get some baby, gotta get it, put it in,
How quick you get 'em up when we get down!
THROW YOUR HANDS UP DIRTY!
YOU'RE A SINNER! YOU'RE A SINNER!
I KNOW THAT YOUR GUILTY, YOU'RE AT THE MERCY OF ME!
I see you, trying to escape this!
You run and you crawl and you hide, oohoh
You think I'm just a helpless little girl with no strength man!
But I got it all, pent up inside!
Gotta get some baby, gotta get it, put it in,
Cause you're never gonna win, if your never gonna sin,
Gotta get some baby, gotta get it, put it in,
How quick you get 'em up hen we get down!
THROW YOUR HANDS UP DIRTY!
YOU'RE A SINNER! YOU'RE A SINNER!
I KNOW THAT YOUR GUILTY, YOU'RE AT THE MERCY OF ME!
We've got something we're all hiding,
deep inside our minds and we can't seem to dig it out,
We've all go those skeletons inside our closets.
We've all got those things that nobody should know,
the things that'll break you, and people mistake you for criminals,
culprits that don't have a soul.
Funny thing is that most of the accusers are too the abusers right out of control,
living outside of their minds.
We all have different vices and prices to pay don't you know?
We've got something we're all hiding, deep inside our minds and we can't seem to dig it out, We've got something we're all hiding, deep inside our minds and we can't seem to dig it out!
THROW YOUR HANDS UP DIRTY!
YOU'RE A SINNER! YOU'RE A SINNER!
Marching with purpose
To show him that I'm right
Threatening our values
Some people just deserve to die
These broken cities (serve a purpose)
These ugly times will spring anew
A life where none are threatened
By evil minds that run askew
Lust! Greed! Fear will leave no room for
Pain! Tears! Voided by submission
Lust! Greed! Fear will leave no room for
Pain! Tears! Eradication!
Separated by the faults we find in love
Belittled, Uninspired, My swollen throat is tired
And the soldiers keep on marching
Thought it all seems so surreal
But in this building that we enter
The smell of death is so severe
Rifle fire opens from the seventh floor
Scrambling up the stairs
To kick open the door
Across the bloodstained hallway
I saw mercy conquer hate
I screamed with desperate blame and passion:
"You let the fucker get away!"
Lust! Greed! Fear will leave no room for
Pain! Tears! Voided by submission
Lust! Greed! Fear will leave no room for
Pain! Tears! Eradication
What embarrassment I bore
Just fall in with accord
But you preach those empty words:
Monday morning hit me at a hundred miles an hour, so I ripped out the
telephone and waited in the shower nobody came rushing in when I began
to scream the morning that I realised that this was not a dream sweet
success is up and above poverty below I wake in the middle and I press
the green to go passion and sobriety are yelling in my head can't sleep
over money I got cobras in my bed! I am tired, I am lonely all I needs a
little mercy and here it comes! Here it comes I'm worried I won't make
it and I'm dogged by good advice scared that I might lose it and I can't
afford the price hounded by these images designed to turn me on what
planet do the people in the adverts all live on? Now I'm tired, now I'm
lonely all I needs a little mercy and here it comes! Here it comes! Oh,
judge come and put your arms around me oh, and take me to a quiet river
oh, we'll lash our bodies in the water - vow no one can touch us now
above our heads it's up there Monday morning hit me at a hundred miles
an hour so I ripped out the telephone and waited in the shower nobody
came rushing in when I began to scream the morning I realised that this
was not a dream I am tired, I am lonely all I needs a little mercy I am
tired, I am lonely all I needs a little mercy and here it comes! Here it
I was drinking some wine
And it turned to blood
What's the use of religion
If you're only good
I know I'm weed killer, honey
And you're sugar
If you're the prosecution
I get away with murder
You're gravity searching for the ground
I'm silence searching for a sound
Your heart is aching
Your heart is my home
It's fascinating
I know I'll never be alone
You're gonna kill me and I wanna die
We were meant for each other, you and I
Souls allowed to love
And there's nowhere else to turn
You're not sorry, you're not gonna cry
You put the blue back in my eye
It's just us
Because, because, because we can
We must
If you're hunger, baby let me feed it
If your heart is full, baby let me bleed it
And happiness is for those who don't really need it
You love me too much
You wanna kill me and I wanna die
We're a perfect match, you and I
Slaves without the drug
And there's no one else to trust
I'm not sorry, you're not gonna cry
You put the blue back in my eye
It's just us
Because, because, because we can
We must
I'm gonna kill me and I wanna die
We were meant for each other, you and I
Souls allowed to trust
And there's no one left to trust
I'm not sorry, you're not gonna cry
You put the blue back in my eye
It's just us
Because, because, because we can
We must
Because, because, because we can
We must
Because, because, because we can
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
Standing here against the night
But there’s beauty upon our sight
If it don’t kill you it’ll hurt you some
If it don’t kill you it’ll hurt you some
Mercy build and mercy break
Yours to give and yours to take
And when the world tries to call you away
You say
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
And all this cathedral that you have in your eyes
Is violent revealing from the ground to the sky
Is it warm or is it cold
Is it young or is it old
And if you cant touch the naked body of her soul
She will fall asleep on you
The world will tell you what to do
Till the hands and guns and hearts and songs
They say mercy
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
Mercy
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
I stood in the water
In the middle month of winter
My camel skin was torture
I was in a state of nature
The wind, sir, it was wicked
I was so alone
Just as I predicted
My followers were gone
And I cried `Mercy'
Have mercy upon me
And I got down on my knees
Thrown into a dungeon
Bread and water was my portion
Faith - my only weapon
To rest the devil's legion
The speak-hole would slide open
A viper's voice would plead
Thick with innuendo
Syphilis and Greed
And she cried `Mercy'
Have mercy upon me
And I told her to get down on her knees
In a garden full of roses
My hands, tied behind me
My cousin was working miracles
I wondered if he'd find me
The moon was turned toward me
Like a platter made of gold
My death, it almost bored me
So often was it told
And I cried `Mercy'
I cried mercy on me
Cryind `Mercy'
I love you mercy, mercy.
Oh, you know, you're such a beautiful thing.
You're laying kisses on me girl
All you know all the pleasure it brings,
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
You're spending all my money,
And you're making me crawl up the wall.
Mercy, mercy
You're doing me without any mercy at all,
And I'm calling you:
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me.
A man's supposed to be stronger
And is used to getting his way, ah,
But mercy girl you got my number,
And I'll do any thing that you say.
But stop playing with me.
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
I was headed for the border, trying to get back on my feet
Though the nights were getting colder, I'm remembering the heat
My desire burning like flame, like the desert wants the rain
Calling like a freight train, coming back to you again
And I say mercy , mercy me, I can't get no peace
I say mercy, mercy me, I can't get no peace
I was feeling so much older, this wicked world seemed cruel and hard
'Til I laid my weary shoulders on a bed of california stars
Was it something in the moonlight ? souls were stirring up the air
Your virgin light is a golden flame
But it's burning, it's burning fast now
You crossed the line and you made a choice
You hurt the one you love now he needs you
Mercy I can't see your heart
I can't feel your love
Mercy I can't see your heart
I can't feel your love
Your life is like a song you're living like a fool
You're living like a fool but I can't tell you right
You're taking all the time you're taking all my time
You're living like a fool
And I can't tell you right
Mercy I can't see your heart
I can't feel your love
Mercy I can't see your heart

Bitch yellow, tape yellow, give you an H-A-L-O

Hard head make her soft fast
Tatted up from head to toe
Guess you can call me a marksman
Wayne soaring
All my whores is whoring
All you rappers is boring
Truckfit hat and some Jordans
[Hook]
On this cold November day
You will see me smilin'
Oh but it's been a while
Since I could laugh again
Talkin' with my friends
And now you'll hear me sayin'
Oh now that I'm ok
Give me time
To get you off my mind
'Cause I've got too much going on
And I'm getting tired of crying
If you find when you you think of me
That you keep your head down
Is it still too soon to see
I'm at your Mercy
And it's true oh now what they say
It gets better by the hour
Better by the day
I move on in my simple way
Getting stronger every hour
Mercy, well, I melt in the kiss by the words
And the whispers you sing me
Mercy, and I'm frail in the kill by submission
And will that you bring me
Mercy, when I'm nothing but ego
You slap me to let go and sleep free
Now I sleep free
You're my toy box, you're my memories
When I smell your skin you just make my whole world weep
I'm at your feet, I'm at your feet
Mercy, when the gray turns to black
And the waves on my back, you make me smile
Mercy, is the trauma no martyr
You crush into pleasure and downtown
Mercy, it's the shining of you
That just breaks me in two like a lifeline
You're my lifeline
And I'm the idiot to your poetry
When you burn and bleach
Everything and all I need
Is at your feet, is at your feet
Mercy, are the licks and the lips of temptation
Just tricks, not for playing
Mercy, are you the camera suck
Gun slut to headphone fuck holes in my being
Mercy, are you everything
Which put the sex into bitch or just faking?
Do you fake it?
So I celebrate your chemistry
If you bond with me
I could make your whole world sweet
I'm on my knees, on my knees
On my knees, on my knees
On my knees, on my knees
my tears are dry-
dry tears so full of sorrows
troubled am i-hoping he’ll see tomorrow
save his heart and soul-save his soul
i hear a sound
beyond the distance crying
black winds blow cold
where dreams are dying
jesus won’t you please
(have mercy-have mercy on me)
and i know i’m so weak so weak and your strong
(jesus)
take him by the hand and lead him on
(have mercy-have mercy on me)

jesus------have mercy---- do-----------
This is the point of no return
The place where we must look around
And remember
This is the time of contemplation
The second of eternity
We are mortals
Needing signs of love from one another.
We are the children of Adam
The inheritors of Eve
And the fruit of Death
We must be careful where we tread
Must be careful what we say
Lest we loose our way
In time everyone falls, in time everyone calls
For Mercy on the children
Mercy on the Sons of Men
This fear of suffering
Pulls us to our feet
Makes us stand up tall
Wondering where evil men get the gall … Mercy.
We must have mercy to survive
Must have Mercy to give life - In the springtime
All of the scapegoats have been loosed
The Slaughtered Lamb is on the Tree - The Tree of Life
Showing signs of love to one another.
We must forgive our fellow man
Just as we have been forgiven - It’s the only way
Peace, she is the lifeblood of this land
She’s the only way a pierced hand
We pull away from shore, and so we close the doors we've opened,
File away our fears, release today, embrace tomorrow
We feel our feelings lie; we see the way but not the exits
Reality we fight; we dream escape but wake the captured
Is your world so cold outside that we have no ties?
Are the walls we build between us closing in?
You can't deny... Mercy
You can't deny... Mercy
Can anybody help me?
We turn away from scorn and leave the past alone
Pardon what we know, release each day away, but we never go...
Never go to... Mercy
Is your world so cold outside that we have no ties?
Are the walls we build between us closing in?
You can't deny... Mercy
You can't deny... Mercy
You can't deny... Mercy
You can't deny... Mercy
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I love you but I gotta stay true
My moral's got me on my knees
I'm begging please
Stop playing games
I don't know what this is but you got me good
Just like you knew you would
I don't know what you do but you do it well
I'm under your spell
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
I said release me
Now you think that I
Will be something on the side
But you got to understand that I need a man
Who can take my hand, yes I do
I don't know what this is but you got me good
Just like you knew you would
I don't know what you do but you do it well
I'm under your spell
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
I said you better release me
I'm begging you for mercy
Just why won't you release me?
I'm begging you for mercy
You got me begging, you got me begging
You got me begging
Mercy, why won't you release me?
I'm begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
You got me begging you for mercy
I'm begging you for mercy
I'm begging you for mercy
I'm begging you for mercy
I'm begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
You got me begging you for mercy
You got me begging down on my knees
I said you got me begging, begging you for mercy
Don't give up
I know you can see
All the world and the mess that were making
Can't give up
And hope God will intercede
Come on back
Imagine that we could get it together
Stand up for what we need to be
Cause crime won't save our feet or hungry child
Can't lay down and hope no miracles change things
So lift up your eyes
Lift up your heart
Singing mercy will we overcome this
Oh one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
Me and you and you and you
Just want to be free yeah
But you see all the world is just as we've made it
And until we got a new world
Got to say that love is not a whisper or a weakness
No love is strong
So we got to get together yeah
Gotta get gotta get gotta get
Til there is no reason
To fight
Mercy will we overcome this
Oh one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
Yeah...
Ah...
Oh...
Yeah...
Mercy will we overcome this
Oh we come to far to turn it around
Oh and asked too much to be a little bit stronger
But I want to give you what you need
Mercy what will become of us
Oh one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
Holy god
holy and strong
holy and immortal
have mercy on us
have mercy on us
Let the rain wash our tears away
let the water free our soul from sin
don't let evil come into our heart
it will makes his home there
Holy god
holy and strong
holy and immortal
have mercy on us
Holding open time to rest awhile
I am playing in the darkness of warm July
Tryst between the scenes not happy,
as it seems you play with forgiveness
for wicked schemes
I know years ago
I know nowâ¦
You seem like some devil
You play like some god
Clean before the stream to innocence you cling
the beauty in the crime is you don't feel; a thing
Scars we wore years ago hurt now
You seemed like some devil
And you prayed like you were god
These roses form a ring around your cell
in these ashes
we all fall down
Hold on to the divine we'll all fall down.
Stars I wished on years ago burnt out
You seemed like some devil
You played like some god
These roses form a ring around our selves in the ashes we all fall down
We used to sit and watch the kids belly flop divin in
the river.
Share a bottle a scrumpy by the neck,lie in the sun and
you'd make me laugh.
Take of early and head on home to get dolled up for the
Casino.
we'd head out lookin all shiny and new, we were
Teddyboys we had to be cool,
later that night we'd go down to Mario's for fish and
chips and vinegar,
a smile for the camera man got me and you in a
photograph.
But time goes on and on and nothin beautiful lasts
forever,
I know what you've done and what you've been through
I dont understand why you do what you do,
I give you my hand its a hand you can hold on to
MERCY, MERCY,
We drifted apart and you grew strange you were more
into whisky then women.
The first time you got lifted you loved it,you wrote
your own epitaph.
here lies a wanted man could'nt take the rules when
they hit him.
here lies a man with an attitude and a polaroid shot of
a hand he could hold onto
MERCY,MERCY.
The older you get the harder it bites,when you fight
you go kamikaze.
It hurts so bad to see you fall back from your tender
ways.
Now all you've got is in a police bag beside a row of
walkie-talkies on the mantlepiece,
I know what you've done and what you've been through,
but I dont understand why you do what you do what you
I give you my hand its a hand you can hold onto
