So much to say so little time for me to explain the way I feel
You only see things the way you want to see them
It makes sense to you all these things you do
You got it all figured out while everyone is confused
How do you do it?
In your mind I'm just blind
You're right all of the time
If I think for myself, I guess I'm way out of line
I'm not who you are
I'm so sorry
I can't do anything right
You don't know me, stay out of my life
Kick me while I'm down, I want you to
I can't be like you
Don't want to be like you
No matter what I do it's never good enough
I give all that is me; still it's never enough
So, why try? I give up.
What does it feel like to be in you shoes
And walk over everyone like you do?
Tear me down again, I want you to.
You're lovely, so beautiful
You're perfect in every way.
Your interior rusted. I'm so disgusted
Reign, Most High
Almighty Reign, Most High
Almighty I, Most High
What good is for a man to gain the whole world
Yet lose of forfeit his very self?
He must deny himself and
Take up his cross daily and follow me
If anyone is ashamed of me and my words,
Then I will be ashamed of him
When the time comes, in his glory, we will rise
I tell you the truth, some of you who are standing here
Will not taste death before they see jah
Creation come with his power
What can a man give in exchange for his own
Soul he cannot save?
When the time comes, in his Glory, we will rise
Imagine a place only your soul can vision
The heart of a child who looks, sees and listens
She paints a picture using every color
And what she sees, she sees is like no other
One word, a voice unheard
You can change the world
With everything I know you're made of
One word, a voice unheard
You can change the world
If everyone would stop and listen
The art of innocence make so much sense
But placed inthe wrong hands, well then it's wasted
Filtered throught he eyes of a pure mind
A one-of-a-kind paradise for you and I
Break the cycle, find your rhythm
Share the gift that you've been given
You can
You can change the world
Believe
Recieve
Obtain
Withstand
Never die
Breathe
This is the knowledge that I bring,
Universal worldwide culture
Inhale, exhale
I takes it all in
No second guessing
Truth brings forth a new passion
No second guessing
Push aside this fate for the ransom
Stands among, gold seven and lox'd up
White wool; fire eyes, glowing in red
Water of rush, planet hold, in double edge
Falling down dead, last first, it's one life
Life source, in resurrection, these bloodstains
Shining face, this morning stars reflections
Embracing light, the clearness of sunrise
Tower strong, in this refuge, my fortress
Breathe
This is the knowledge that I bring,
Universal worldwide culture
Inhale, exhale
I takes it all in
No second guessing
Truth brings froth a new passion
No second guessing
Let it be know that you heard it from here
When I'm on this microphone you know I make myself clear
With the power, with the love with the boldness
Look in my eyes and remember wo told you this
Payable on Death gonna hit ya hit-man
Talk all you want, I don't fear any man
Cuz ya frontin' ain't nothin but words to me
You never had the stuff and your butt ain't crazy enough
To handle, we come step to me
My King is He in the power of Three
So what you want you ain't down with us
You get so scared, so mad when I say the word Jesus
I ain't down, you preach too much
But if you ask me boy, I don't think I preach enough
I tell you God is real, so don't miss the boat
But since we come off hard, you say we shove it down your throats
You wanna talk that talk, walk that walk
I'm the only person you see, but it ain't me that you mock
Man is nothing, but you think that you're bad
Fool if it wasn't for my God, I would have already had you
Deny His name are you willing to admit it
And if so, are you willing to die for it
Cuz I am, He is my life and I don't fear death
Cuz he already paid the Price
All your talk and are your threats ain't jack blaspheme my God
Yo punk I'm not having that, turn away it's your own loss
I go where i wanna go
I keep the thang on the downlow
I'm from the south side of diego till the day that i die;
Better put it on my tombstone.
I keep my head to the sky
I'm still living for the sunshine
I got love for the streets and the rest of my homies still doing their time
I mon a burn ina fire ago blaze
Cali livin for the rest of my days
To overstand i will stay in jah ways to keep from going insane
It's all good. it's alright
You wanna ride it ain't no thang that's just how we play
It's all day and all night.
We're coming up in the streets of kaliforn-eye-a
You know i've heard it all before
And i don't care about who you know.
You see i've been around the world,
Had a lot of good times but aint nothing like the west coast
I'm staying on my grind
I'm lowriding on the westside
I'm laid back in the cut. everybody know wussup so i'm feeling alright
I mon a burn ina fire ago blaze
Cali livin for the rest of my days
I'm wishin', searchin' for somethin'
and life is goin' on.
Time is tickin', and I'm sleepin'
I feel it comin' on, I feel it comin' on
We keep it comin' on, So keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
I'm missin', days are back then
And life was goin' on, Alive and kickin'
Waitin' for meanin', and now were movin' on,
and now were movin' on, We keep it movin' on,
So keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
Waiting On Today, Tell me it's ok

[Instrumental]
Breathe!
Suffocation within
because of what your sayin'
To understand!
Is to begin again
Yet to Begin!
Is to live again
I tried living my life through your eyes
Smother me with your ways, to death, no breath.
Your choking what little faith I have left.
In time I find the truth lies, Inside the truth lies, Inside
Breathe!
Suffocation within
because of what your sayin'
To understand!
Is to begin again
Yet to Begin!
Is to live again
I would die, to breathe again
I would die, to breathe again
I would die, to breathe again
I would die, to breathe again
Breathe!
Suffocation
I want to Breathe!
Suffocation
I understand
I would die, to breathe again
I would die, to breathe again
Come and give me that wildfire
The uncivilized sound that I love
The primitive ragga blaze style
Consciousness vibes I and I know
The untamed flame that I desire
Me want uncultivated Jah glow
Foolish intensity, versatile
Fly the spirit high, take me higher
One leads with the passion
The righteous will burn again
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire will never end
I want to feel that wildfire
Irregular burning of the sun
Shining through make you spit fire
Savage combustion, let it go
Impetuous fervor testifier
Outlandish passions I know
Crucial rhythms no denial
Prove to me, what I see,
What I hear, my God!
Prove to me, what I see,
What I hear, my God!
Prove to me, what I see
What I hear, my God!
Prove to me, what I see
What I hear, my God!
Take my flesh God,
Tear my pride
Take my pride God,
Tear my flesh
Take my flesh God,
Tear my pride
Yeah! Come on! Come to get some!
You want me ta drop the flava,
Yeah that's me, So what's up?
Come to get some!
Prove to me, what I see
What I hear, my God!
Prove to me, what I see
What I hear, my God
With the richous wisdom, spiritual inside
check the knowledge,
and it shall come to pass, afterward,
that I will pour out my sprit on all flesh
and your sons (praise God) and your daughters shall prophesy
Your old men shall dream dreams
and your young men, shall see visions
Through these eyes! Is what I see!
Through these eyes! Is what I see!
Through these eyes! Is what I see!
Through these eyes! Is what I see!
These eyes!
Prove to me! Show me!
What I see! Break me!
What I hear! Carry me!
My God!
Prove to me! Show me!
What I see! Break me!
What I hear! Carry me!
What you know about that fallin, fallin
Babylon this so called great dead, wait,
Dread bout to update the death rate in one take,
Make no mistake we the real deala,
The radical natural born wig-splitter.
Gonna getcha, with the style that make your soul holla.
More drama, though when droppin the sure-shot,
I rock it steady, be ready till the track is diminished
and when the die goes belly up consider it finished
Sounds like it's Jah to me,
Sounds like it's Jah to me,
The sum of everything, yeah
Close your eyes so you can see
Peace, Love, and Harmony
Sounds like it's Jah to me, yeah
We keep on movin like don't stop, let it go, soul to soul
Dread at the controls, tag em up and label em John Doe.
The raw flow, We built the new style empire.
blazin my choir, like that 4th man on fire.
This guns for hire, take the vow of the Nazarenes.
Then come clean, They're crazy bald heads dontcha mean.
Wickedness fill the sky on the death blow.
carve the name across your chest,
incase the dog catcher wants to know
Sounds like it's Jah to me,
Sounds like it's Jah to me,
The sum of everything, yeah
Close your eyes so you can see
Peace, Love, and Harmony
Sounds like it's Jah to me, yeah
It's gotta be Jah
It's gotta be Jah, Jah, Jah
Jah, Jah, Jah
Jah! Jah! Jah! Jah!
Sounds like it's Jah to me,
Sounds like it's Jah to me,
The sum of everything, yeah
Close your eyes so you can see
Peace, Love, and Harmony
Sounds like it's Jah to me, yeah
what could it be, Jah
what could it be, Jah
The world keeps on turning
And you're locked up in it
Before I was lost, but now I am found
Seeking the Wise
I'm in like that and I'm right on time
I'm looking for the King and will find the way
The truth and the one that gives life Payable on Death
And we're seeking the wise, no where to run looking for the Son
No where to run
You are, you are the one
I'm breathing dust of conspiracies, iniquities
Infiltrate the wisdom, but we bounce back and burn like the sun
I'm needing help like welfare recipients
while false prophets keep writing fake manuscripts
Brought down like fugitives, saints on the warpath
Watch how you live, oh God, please make me capable,
It goes one for the money homie, two for the show.
We tore the roof off this mother now it's time to blow.
Like we don't need no water, don't bother, we let it burn.
We keep the fire just a little bit hotter, that way you'll learn.
Respect I earned, started with the clique that i hanged.
Respect I earned, ever since i got in this game.
Respect I earned, never wanting fortune or fame.
I'd rather have these south Diego streets knowin my name.
Chiggy-check, microphone check.
Chiggy-check, microphone check.
It's Lights Out, Game Over.
If you wanna you can check my stats.
It's Lights Out, Game Over.
Make way cause the kings is back.
We bang boogy through your system, subliminal.
We lyrical murderin like we criminals.
It's life or death, medical decision.
We so dope out the lab that you need a prescription.
The hood is listenin, so for you that i wrote this.
Keep it underground, stickin to the streets like the homeless.
With the dopeness, recognize the real P.O.D.
Cause we triple O, oh triple, triple OG.
Chiggy-check, microphone check.
Chiggy-check, microphone check.

Word on the streets is the boys is back.

Lights Out, microphone check.
It's Lights Out, microphone check.
Make way cause the kings is back.
My soul is alive, and so are you
Helps when trying to pass the time, it ain't easy without you
As long as I can try, I'll make it through
But it might take awhile, believe me if you only knew
If you, If you, Could see Me Now
If you, If you, Could see Me Now
If only you, If you, Could see Me Now
And is this what you want for me to feel?
Or am I going out of my mind? What Is real?
Stay by my side, so I can live
And I will be alright, don't leave me
If you, If you, Could see Me Now
If you, If you, Could see Me Now
If you, If you, Could see Me Now
If only you, If you, Could see Me Now
(Then you'd understand who I really am)
If only you, If you, Could see Me Now
(You never questioned me, if you could only see)
And is this what you want for me to feel?
And Is this what you want?
Is this what you want?
Is this what you need?
Is this what you want?
Is this what you need?
If you, If you, Could see Me Now (If I could see you!)
If you, If you, Could see Me Now (If I could see you!)
If only you, If you, Could see Me Now (If I could see you!)
(Then you'd understand who I really am)
If you, If you, Could see Me Now (If I could see you!)
I man a mad stylee, underground
We come cool and deadly witht hat natural sound
It make you feel so free, you no turn it down
Vibes 619, from the Southtown
And Jah kno, what I & I gonna do
Because Jah know, I man stay true
You know Jah know, the real who is who
Ain't no time to fake it, make it feel brand new
It goes 1, 2, 3, the crew is called P.O.D.
And if you want to go to the tiptop
Break it down with that one drop
Execute the sounds
Positive come around
Impact the sounds
Positive all around
You want to mess with me, try to take this crown
Babylon test me, we go smash them down
Original O.G., this is my playground
No take me seriously, you gonna feel it now
I man know the harder they come
Because I man a gonna get the job done
You kno I man know they don't want none
Me never have to cheat, 'cause me already won
1904, home to the real hardcore
And you don't want to sleep, don't talk
Time goes by and God knows I try to carry on with life
Decide not to hide feelings inside, even though they hurt
Sometimes, I forget to remember you
It's easy to lock away the pains, don't want to relive it through
But I stay strong, you taught me how to move on in this world
I married my sweetheart, even got a little baby girl
I wish you could see her, I swear she looks just like you
If you can hear me, show me a sign, please send her a butterfly or two
I'm thinking about forever (missing you)
I know you're so much better (we made it through)
Now I know what it means to live for someone else
To give up yourself
Things have changed, at times it gets kind of strange
Your love remains the same
Do I make you proud? Mama, can you see me now?
Whatever is good in me is because you showed me how to take love by the hand
And so now I can share you with my baby
So that she can understand
I'm thinking about forever (missing you)
I know you're so much better (we made it through)
I'm thinking about forever (missing you)
Hey pretty lady
Why are you looking so grey?
Why are you worried about tomorrow
If livings for today
Time flies, keeps passing you by
They see you going under
And they all wonder why
Oh, why
Can you hear the voices sayin?
It's alright, it's alright
(Chorus)
And this is our generation
And it'll be your time
In this situation
You better hold on tight
Break the foundation
You gotta live your life
In this generation
Hey pretty babay
Why the look in your eyes?
You're gonna make it in this lifetime
Daddy make it alright
Sun shines, keep your head up towards the light
Release, the soul is burning
So you can learn to fly
So, fly
It's only yours if you take it
It's alright, it's alright
(Chorus)
And this is our generation
And it'll be your time
In this situation
You better hold on tight
Break the foundation
You gotta live your life
In this generation
And it'll be your life
And it's alright
And it'll be your time (In this generation)
You better hold on tight (In this generation)
You gotta live your life (In this generation)
And it'll be alright (In this generation)
And it'll be your time (In this situation)
You gotta hold on tight (Break the foundation)
You gotta live your life (In this generation)
It's just the way it goes, and everybody does,
And nobody said I can't, and this is how I feel
And I just wanted to, I really thought I could
Because The Reasons why, Why do we do the things we do?
Because, I try to make you see these things the way I do
It is what it is, and that's too bad for you
I don't even care, Why can I why not
And I do what I want, and this cause I said so
Because The Reasons why, Why do we do the things we do?
Because, I try to make you see these things the way I do
Because The Reasons why, Why do we do the things we do?
Because The Reasons, The Reasons, Cause The Reasons
Because The Reasons why, Why do we do the things we do?
Because, I try to make you see these things the way I do
Because The Reasons why, Why do we do the things we do?

What you gon' do when we come for you?
Ya llego el Rey Mysterio.
El vato cabron de San Diego.
Flash up on the scene like a brown crusader.
Blowing up screens like Space Invaders.
Too much damage for one to manage.
Going 51:50 speaking Spanglish.
Aste a un lado estoy pesado.
Vivo la vida peleando pecado.
Altom me duele la alma.
Y deje mi cartera en Tijuana.
El soldado enmascarado te cuidado.
Paisa paisa, estas pasado.

And we the Southtown generals, Diego Don originals.
Hitman for hire, made wiseguys untouchable.
Border bandits, running the streets and the canvas.
We live and direct, no reruns, that's what's happening.
Blow up the mannequin, better go ask your friends again.
Terror in their eyes when they tell you "Here comes the mask again."
No time for talkin, dig the whole for the coffin.
It's no mystery Rey that he's a dead man walkin.
(El dia de los muertos) Say a prayer for the livin.
Ask God to take my soul in case I go unforgiven.
(One shot) Two kills, you don't believe me now you will.
And that's the realest deal homey since Jesus' last meal.
Booyaka. Booyaka. 6-1-9 (Hey)

Como la ves.
Facil como uno, dos, tres.
Mr. DJ, play that rola otra vez.
And watch how my people go off.
Under the wooden cross, who's the boss?
Nadie brinca, y tienta cielo.
Con mi vos aquí yo el cielo.
I walk through, los siente, they're mi gente.
Truena fuerte, como cuente.
That's just life in the 6-1-9.
So hey DJ hit me one more time.

Rhythmically moving
Emotions are rising
Quivering to music
Trembling bodies in song
Go unsteadily sliding
Devious gliding
So beautifully sailing and floating on
Life's real when angels and serpents dance
Twistedly slipping
Radiant soaring
Winding. maliciously creeping
Flowing
Righteous, moral and just.
Deceitful. the creature is crawling
The guardian's flying. the dance is breathing
Who's leading?
Who's leading you?
Everything you say?
Everything that you do?
Believing what is true?
One must lead in the dance

I don't belong
Too many wrongs
I'm so undeserving.
I'm lost inside confusing minds. a slave to what i'm feeling.
Scared of what i'm thinking. i'm not worried about forgiving you
The simple truth
This ain't no ordinary love song
This love undone
Words left unsung
Now i have become me.
The reasoning escapes my soul that leads to understanding
Loving you to death is stopping someone else from living too
Now it's killing you.
Losing control to all my thoughts
I want to let go but i cannot
This is my love it's all i got
Don't take there in hell i'll rot
Welcome to hard times, back again like its never been
For the first time it seem to mess with my head
When I realize what it takes, can I relate
With whatever, but never will it drive me to hate
Could be the next guy that you take before I wake
Now I lay me down to sleep, eyes tight when I pray
This her is real life, circumstances make you think
Should I be counting my blessings, the next second my eyes blink
Here in the Southtown you know that kid don't play
Put it down it the streets, will I see another day
If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine
And thank God that I made it alive
It ain't got to be like this
Don't wanna throw up my fist, Don't wanna be like this
Don't wanna throw up my fist, I must resist
It ain't gots to be like this
Back in the day when man he paved the way
Fell in temptation, sin spread through the nation
Lead me salvation, and pierce the palms of holy hands
Who is the son of man? take me to the promised land
Where I and I free, Jah set my mind at ease
I stay cool in the shade even at 96 degrees
You must believe and plant this seed of wisdom
Stick to the track and don't be trapped by Babylon
[chorus]
Set your eyes to Zion
Jah Jah people ride on
Forgive them Lord, for they not know
That what they do, people blame it on you
Can't understand why dem so mad
Dem heart get cold, empty with no soul
I've begun to search of One
Giver of life, I and I recognize
To be with you, forever I'll be with you
In paradise, Zion I set my eyes
[chorus]
Tell me Mr. dead man?
Do you have the answer?
How do you get to Heaven?
Do you have the answer?
Hey Mr. dead man
I'll tell you if you want to know,
How you can get to Heaven?
Believe in I Jah Jah son

chorus
(this song has no lyrics.)
P.O.D. and Matisyahu
Original Roots In Stereo, ya know
One time, bring it down selecta
I got that Boom Bye Bye, so nobody disrespect, Jah love
Give me strength and power flow through white dreads ('nough said)
You all walk with kings, talk with kings
When it all goes down, have no idea what it really means.
To live by words, if scripture is roots,
and the wise hold they tongue when the youth speak the truth.
You learn real quick, where I'm from if you don't belong
Only the strong survive, Southtown and Babylon
(See Babylon Burnin to the ground yo)
You think your number 1 wicked selecta
Try to sneak up in my hood, we not gon'let ya
(Babylon's burnin to the ground, yo)
In the streets they hear your name, they no respect ya
You can run and hide, in the end we gon' getcha
Boom Biddy Bye Bye
Original Roots In Stereo
So rep the streets you ride on.
Chant them down with that rude boy sound,
and watch the whole world lie down.
We generals in the streets they know
Who wears the crown for shine now
It got that champion sound moshin through your town
We go make the world go lie down.
Me say, Hey natty dreadlocks where you come from?
Where the mountains watch the city and waters touch the sun
Where some carry crosses like others carry guns
And pray Jah be glorified till the day soon come.
Follow me
Lick a shot if you a mighty warrior
Lick a shot if you a freedom fighter
Lick a shot if you a true souljah
Now dance your way back to Zion
(Now Dance your way back to Zion)
I put it down for your love, till my journey is done
And let the stories be told how the battle was won
So I grabbed the microphone and I started to run
Here I come, Boom Biddy Bye
Here I come
Boom Biddy Bye Bye
Original Roots In Stereo
So rep the streets you ride on.
Chant them down with that rude boy sound,
and watch the whole world lie down.
We generals in the streets they know
Who wears the crown for shine now
It got that champion sound moshin through your town
We go make the world go lie down.
Empty nation just a phase, redemptions on it's way.
The people love to talk but they don't got that much to say.
Generation of orphans whose hearts are all ablaze,
Little light in a lot of darkness goes a long way.
Freedom, hearts bleed, and I see them feedin poison.
Poor choices, spirits screamin, trying to break these boundaries.
Running up a mountain, chains tied to my feet.
Running up a mountain, chains tied to my feet.
Original Roots In Stereo
So rep the streets you ride on.

We go make the world go lie down.
Make the world go lie down.
Bloodstain drippin through the rain,
Face down, trip and feel the pain.
Get up, you conduct your own train, rippin it up, stepping it up, raising it up
We're the blood of God's veins, we gotta maintain get past the blame.
And then this fame came, for a reason and a season.
Then I'll stay up, not lay low,
And raise yours and up the offering
And then the blessings will flow
We go make the world go lie down.
Make the world go lie down.
We go make the world go lie down.
Make the world go lie down.
Dripping in the rain, face down, trip and feel the pain

We're the blood of God's veins, we gotta maintain past that of blame
Gathers fame, came for a reason and a seasons
Skillfully tested
rythmically possessed with rhymes
and when it was time Jah gave me the mike
after he blessed it
he said share the lovin
prepare tehm for the second comin
beware of false prophets
cause they got my people bummin
but put on the full armor
you know these fools are gonna wanna
talk behind your back but stay away from the drama
and you know that im'a
keep you safe inside the palm of my hand
cause you da man
and that's word to your mama
so give it to 'em
it's themeselves that they foolin
got ahead of the game too quick
what they lack is old schoolin
you know who's who
wether or not
i'm talkin to your crew
it's up to you to keep it true
nuff respect due
dem test me crew but dem can't get with this.

Original rude boy

They dime a dozen

and clear their minds
and continue to come alive
cause he love

--English Translation--
Praise ye the LORD.
Praise God in his sanctuary
Praise him in the firmament of his power
Praise him for his mighty acts
Praise him according to his excellent greatness
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet
Praise him with the psaltery and harp
Praise him with the timbrel and dance
Praise him with stringed instruments and organs
Praise him upon the loud cymbals
Praise him upon the high sounding cymbals
Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD
The deeper and deeper I fall, deeper and deeper I seek,
Deeper and deeper I try and deeper and deeper I need
Forgive Me
And all I see is Your face
The deeper and deeper i fall, deeper and deeper I seek
Deeper and deeper I try, the deeper and deeper I need
The deeper and deeper I fail, deeper and deeper I read
Deeper and deeper I cry, the deeper and deeper I feed
Caught up in this game of life, me against you
Not doing what I should, just the things that I want to
So wrapped up, terrified of what I become
Outside I'm laughing, inside I'm numb
I can't see the light because it blinds me
Try to forget but my past always remidns me
Exposed, looked on by eyes of grace
I'm so ashamed, Don't look at my face
All I see is your face
Get up by your strength, I rise up to thee
But I'll stay on my face if you will of me
Shape and Mold me til your though
Humble myself, life laid down before you
I need your wisdom, so the truth I keep on living
And your love will always be a part of me
Can't do a thing, if I ain't living for the kind
So don't ever leave or take your eyes off me
It's not who you are It's who you're living for
Psycho Realm, P.O.D., Boo-yah Tribe. What? What?
My soul is payable on death, the flow I'm layin here is deaf
Mics come with a teflon vest, my words wreck
I'm a Psycho, ill with the voco-loco.
Heard a sick pedo noco noco by coasta logo
Gas mask with the gangsta strollo
Got a piece that will match the chrome D's on my low-low
Total chaos, you think that I'm a rapper your way off
I'm a killer that be murderin these tracks, so stay off.
Serial rhymin, convicted of driving and beat the hymen
and breaking the hymen on ears that never heard of the line that I'm in
The danger zone is common, city blocks got the demons mobbin
I'm a con-artist, starvin, strong armin
Jason's guitarin, Traa's bass while Wuv is bombin
Bring the streets to the booth, It's my therapy from mental scaring
From the hell when i dwelled in an L.A. projects
Ever since the day the streets be callin
Ooo what it takes to keep from fallin
All i know is how to hustle man, so I'll stay on it.
Somewhere in the world the sun is shining
down on my face there's someone trying
trying to grind it out these streets we live
and I'm not dying
My souls payable on death, home grown out the west
my words be leapin from the grill leaving you holding your breathe
So who want next, and who gonna test?
Come get this lyrics beating, I'm out the frame like graffiti
It's so misleading, but i make it look easy
and everybody out the box trying to cop my steezy
So my crew roll through, you know quite is kept
But my level is next, so bet it all on dread
I break bread with hustlers, conversate with kings
Conquer kingdoms with warriors and preach to the fiends
Partake communion with dealers, love the least of these
Ask forgiveness from a priest and keep my ears to the streets
Some of my people still fightin they own demons
And some of my people still shootin until it's even
Some kill you just because, and I'll leave it at that
But I choose to use this mic to push these platinum plaques
Ever since the day the streets be callin
Ooo what it takes to keep from fallin
All i know is how to hustle man, so I'll stay on it.
Somewhere in the world the sun is shining
down on my face there's someone trying
trying to grind it out these streets we live
and I'm not dying
Ever since the day the streets be callin
Ooo what it takes to keep from fallin
All i know is how to hustle man, so I'll stay on it.
Somewhere in the world the sun is shining
down on my face there's someone trying
trying to grind it out these streets we live
and I'm not dying
When it drizzle come the storm
and when you born, you see that rappers die where I come from
You thankin gangsta, thank the game
West full circle and it finally came
From the waters runnin how the west was won
How them candles flamin for my brothers to find home
Broken halos and clipped wings
Though we birthed of the west coast, we'll talk in them real things
Did ya'll know that gangstas don't cry?
Did ya'll know all thugs don't ride?
We gangsta pimpin but we had to
You ever touch my sister, got you!
I'm keepin it gangsta cause keepin it's worth keepin
And paid for being processed
With sleeping worth leaking
The streets ball callin me out of control
I'd rather be sending love before I let it go
Ever since the day the streets be callin
Ooo what it takes to keep from fallin
All i know is how to hustle man, so I'll stay on it.
Somewhere in the world the sun is shining

Somewhere in the world the sun is shining
down on my face there's someone trying
trying to grind it out these streets we live
and I'm not dying
I'll stay On The Grind, I do this all the time
For all it's worth, I keep on searching for my piece of mind.
I'll stay On The Grind, I do this all the time
For all it's worth, I keep on searching for my piece of mind.
I'll stay On The Grind, I do this all the time
I'm an outkast
But don't count me out
Underground dwellaz, roaming beneath the cellars
Failed us with this system, ain't living how they tell us
Hideaway place, it's safe, they raise a nation of hate
Erase a main for his faith
They feed us lies, dress up my King in false disguise
Behind those eyes, soul of a savior I recognize
No compromise, while the whole world becomes corrupt
Tonight we break the surface for lives, We coming up
Brother take my hand
Lets separate ourselves
Leave behind this place
Don't ever look back
Disgraced man, survivors of the wasteland,
Looking for a home of his own
No place to run, now place to hide
It's time for you to stand on your own
Militia, coalition, not of this world
Resistance, we the alliance
We freedom fighters, its honor we defend
We follow truth and never your trends
Brother take my hand
Lets separate ourselves
Leave behind this place
Don't ever look back
Handicap yourself by choice
and keep the mind confined to the chair with no voice
So speak up (move your lips too slow)
And make way to the center stage
And pretty up that face, cause your servants await.
(It's time to play your role)
So sing and dance just the way we like it!
Sweep The Leg!
If you don't stand for something
Sweep The Leg!
Then you don't stand for nothin
Sweep The Leg!
You must suffer the repercussions
Sweep The Leg!
A coward dies a thousand times
Death before dishonor, cross the thin red line
So stay alive, (No other place to go)
Silence the facts, delusions are corroded
clench the fist in truth and shove it down your throats
(Don't act like you don't know)
I'm on the wrong path walkin the tight rope
Sweep The Leg!
If you don't stand for something
Sweep The Leg!
Then you don't stand for nothin
Sweep The Leg!
You must suffer the repercussions
Sweep The Leg!
Mistakes & Glories!
They're in the ground, but they were cut down
Mistakes & Glories!
Death doesn't lie and it won't be denied
Mistakes & Glories!
We answer the call but some heroes must fall
Mistakes & Glories!
Giving all you can give when your dying to live
You work for us, You work for us
You work for us, You work for us
You work for us, You work for us
You work for us, You work for.....us!
Sweep The Leg!
If you don't stand for something
Sweep The Leg!
Then you don't stand for nothin
Sweep The Leg!
Gotta suffer the repercussions
Sweep The Leg!
Mistakes & Glories!
They're in the ground, but they were cut down
Mistakes & Glories!
Death doesn't lie and it won't be denied
Mistakes & Glories!
We answer the call but some heroes must fall
Mistakes & Glories!
Giving all you can give when your dying to live
Mistakes & Glories!
They're in the ground, but they were cut down
Mistakes & Glories!
Death doesn't lie and it won't be denied
Mistakes & Glories!
We answer the call but some heroes must fall
Mistakes & Glories!
Intoxicated world. boys and girls
Deal me up another hit of self mutilation
And let me blow my brains. go insane
Throw it in my face and watch me chase it
Stimulate, wide awake
Need to stop this pain inside my head
Cause it's laughing at me
Injection, explosion.
Burning as it surges through my veins
I'm addicted to all the colors that I see
That you hold in front of me
You have changed me
Why do I love you when I know you're wrong?
Over and overindulges in anyone or anything
That makes you feel so alive
I am electrified. I'm so high
Numb to all of you who are just out to get me
Fascinate, magic state
Cast a spell and maybe I might forget who I am
Cowardess, selfishness
Thank you for letting us watch you die
No one knows what goes on inside of your head
And everything seems to be ok.
And your the same as you've always been (your the same)
If I'd listened, would you have talked to me?
I don't wanna Let You Down,
But I can't even pick up myself.
I only wanted to make you proud,
But I don't think I can do this anymore.
When did this crowded room get so lonely?
And everyone keeps looking at me.
I'm tired (so tired) of faking my life (faking my life)
I'm so tired, I don't wanna feel this way.
I don't wanna Let You Down,
But I can't even pick up myself.
I only wanted to make you proud,
But I don't think I can do this anymore.
(do this anymore)
And you mean more, You mean so much more
And you mean more, You mean so much more
And you mean more, And you mean so much more
And you mean more, And you mean so much more
I don't wanna Let You Down,
But I can't even pick up myself.
I only wanted to make you proud,
Breathe
This is the knowledge that I bring,
Universal worldwide culture
Inhale, exhale
I takes it all in
No second guessing
Truth brings forth a new passion
No second guessing
Push aside this fate for the ransom
Stands among, gold seven and lox'd up
White wool; fire eyes, glowing in red
Water of rush, planet hold, in double edge
Falling down dead, last first, it's one life
Life source, in resurrection, these bloodstains
Shining face, this morning stars reflections
Embracing light, the clearness of sunrise
Tower strong, in this refuge, my fortress
Breathe
This is the knowledge that I bring,
Universal worldwide culture
Inhale, exhale
I takes it all in
No second guessing
Truth brings froth a new passion
No second guessing
Push aside this fate for the ransom
I believe that this world believes in love
We might never really agree
On anything about the lives we live
Between you and me. So differently.
We don't always see things the same
We should agree to disagree
If we meet at love we can work it out
I believe you and I will overcome
I believe you and I believe in love
Whether you think I'm so confused
Or if you feel the way I do
So don't give in to this hate within
Living in this world of pain
Don't let it bring you down
The world is a ghetto
I believe that this world believes in love
If it wasn't for you!
Do I believe in the resurrection of Christ?
And did His death bring forth new life?
And did He raise up and bring back Lazurus from the
grave?
Is there supposed to be a Second Coming?
Am I wrong because I'm wondering
Why the fallen Babylon is up and alive today?
And do I really believe in the Mark of the Beast
Cause he's still dwelling up in my streets
Strapped and ready to fight this war
And he's got more guns than you and me
And most people don't wanna believe
That they still prejudice, simply because we poor
Do I believe that Mother Teresa was an angel on this
earth
And thou shall love thy neighbor, even if he acts like
you?
Do believe in Heaven and Hell, shoot, hell yeah I do
Cause we alive today, and my crew is living proof
If it wasn't for you!
None of this would ever mean a thing
If it wasn't for you!
Tell me why else would I believe
What I believe
Do I believe that the Rider of the White Horse
Is coming back for the righteous?
And the Morning Star keeps getting brighter every day?
Is there such a thing as good and evil
Still division amongst the people?
And we're not all created equally, just because you say
Do I believe in the Trinity?
And will I live eternally?
Even though I'm not quite the saint that you claim to
Did Dr. Martin Luther have a dream?
Was Haile Sillasi a king?
And is it okay to sometimes feel a little bit confused?
Will Armagedon ever come?
I'm not perfect, just forgiven
And I might just push back the next time you shove
Do I believe in One God, one aim and destiny?
Just don't forget your First Love
That's what my mom used to tell me
If it wasn't for you!
None of this would ever mean a thing
If it wasn't for you!
Tell me why else would I believe
(What I believe)
If it wasn't for you!
Then none of this is for nothing
It's all for nothing!
It's all for nothing!
It's all for nothing!
If it wasn't for you!
None of this would ever mean a thing
If it wasn't for you!
Tell me why else would I believe
(What I believe)
If it wasn't for you!
None of this would ever mean a thing
(What I believe)
If it wasn't for you
(Would I believe)
If it wasn't for you
[when played backwards:]
Love is very very very very painful...
Love can be very very painful
Love, love is beautiful, Love is kind,
Love is patient, Love is blind
Love, is, Love is beautiful, yes,
I love you, do you love me?
I love you, maybe you don't love me but that's ok.
Love...Guitars of love
This is, the guitars of love
These are, the guitars of love
I can still see the light at the end of the tunnel shine
through the dark times, even when I lose my mind
but it feels like no one in the world is listening
and I can't ever seem to make the right decisions
I walk around in the same haze
I'm still caught in my same ways
I'm losing time in these strange days
but, somehow, I always know the right things to say
I don't know what time it is
or who's the one to blame for this
Do I believe what I can't see?
And how do you know which way the wind blows?
'Cause I can feel it all around
I'm lost between the sound
And just when I think I know, there she goes
Goodbye for now
Goodbye for now, so long
Goodbye for now
I'm not the type to say "I told you so"
Goodbye for now, so long
I think the hardest part of holding on is letting it go
When will we sing a new song, a new song?
We're still smiling as the day goes by
And how come nobody ever knows the reasons why?
Bury you deep, so far that you can't see
If you're like me, who wears a broken heart on your sleeve?
Pains and struggles that you know so well
Either time don't, it can't or it just won't tell
I'm not the type to say "I told you so"
I think the hardest part of holding on is letting it go
I don't know what time it is
or who's the one to blame for this
Do I believe what I can't see?
And how do you know which way the wind blows?
'Cause I can feel it all around
I'm lost between the sound
And just when I think I know, there she goes
Goodbye for now
Goodbye for now, so long
Goodbye for now
I'm not the type to say "I told you so"
Goodbye for now, so long
I think the hardest part of holding on is letting it go
When will we sing a new song, a new song?
When will we sing a new song, a new song?
And you can sing until there's no song left (song left)
And I can scream until the world goes deaf (goes deaf)
For every other word left unsaid you should've took the time
to read the sign and see what it meant (what it meant)
In some ways, everybody feels alone
so if the burden is mine, then I can carry my own (carry my own)
If joy really comes in the morning time
then I'm 'a sit back and wait until the next sunrise
Goodbye for now
Goodbye for now, so long
Goodbye for now
I'm not the type to say "I told you so"
Goodbye for now, so long
I think the hardest part of holding on is letting it go
When will we sing a new song, a new song?
When will we sing a new song, a new song?
When will we sing a new song, a new song?
I don't know how to let you go
I've given to you all of me, all that I'll ever be
We share the same heart and soul
I want you to believe in me
See through my eyes and you will know
I'll take my chance that you will come home to me
Even if it takes some time for you to work it out
I'll be there
I still got a ways to go
So far away from home
Inside I always knew
I would find my way to you
Find my way...
If I could be everything you want
If I could change everything that I have done
Only you know where I have gone
I want to prove I am worthy to be called yours
I need you more that I ever have
And I don't want to stay, try and find me if you can
If I get lost along the way, please don't foget me
Know that I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
This is not pretend
You have no reason to feel secure
Because this world it waits for no one.
So don't you fool yourself
Get out of this imaginary place you call reality
It's so deceiving
Condescending
If you don't get it your way
You're so condescending.
If we don't do what you say
You're so unforgiving
So tell me once again
How easy it would be if we'd listen to you and just paid attention
So what's the point in you
Showing us your way if we don't even care to be around you or even know you?
I cant do what you say
I can't do it your way
I cant do what you say
I can't do it your way
So unforgiving
Patronizing
Overbearing
You're so unbending
Everyday is a new day
I'm thankful for every breath I take
I won't take it for granted
So I learn from my mistakes
It's beyond my control, sometimes it's best to let go
Whatever happens in this lifetime
So I trust in love
You have given me peace of mind
chorus:
I feel so alive for the very first time
I can't deny you
I feel so alive
I feel so alive for the very first time
And I think I can fly
Sunshine upon my face
A new song for me to sing
Tell the world how I feel inside
Even though it might cost me everything
Now that I know this, so beyond, I can't hold this
I can never turn my back away
Now that I've seen you
I can never look away
[chorus]
[bridge:]
Now that I know you (I could never turn my back away)
Now that I see you (I could never look away)
Now that I know you (I could never turn my back away)
Now that I see you (I believe no matter what they say)
[chorus x 2]
