I forgot what my father said
I forgot what he said
I forgot what my mother said
as we layed upon your bed
A city full of flowers
a city full of rain
I got seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die
I forgot what my brother said
I forgot what he said
I don't regret anything at all
I remember how he wept
On a bridge of violent people
I was small enough to cry
I got seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die
Hold my face before you
still my trembling heart
Seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die
The Gods forgot they've made me
so I forgot them to
I listen to the shadows
I play among their graves
My heart is never broken
my patience never tried
I got seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die
Seven days to live my life
Oh, there's the doorbell
Let's see who's out there
Oh, it's a seven
Hello, Seven
Won't you come in, Seven?
Make yourself at home
Hey, who's that other guy?
Is that your friend there?
Oh, that's just Seven
Another seven
Hello, Seven
Won't you come in as well?
Now who would like some cake?
I would like some cake, me too
What's that at the window?
A whole bunch of sevens
They're coming in now
And there's a lot of them
And down the chimney too
Hey guys, come on in
I bet they want some cake
We want cake, where's our cake?
My house is full of sevens
They're filling up the living room
Sliding down the banister
Talking on the telephone
Inviting over more sevens
It's a green house at the end of the block
I'm running out of cake
We want cake, where's our cake?
My house is full of sevens
We want cake, where's our cake?
Lots and lots of sevens
We want cake, where's our cake?
Many more are stopping by
Sevens add and multiply
There's only one way to subtract them

Down on Beale Street, devil be down, got me all worked

Red is the color, of the sun with my eyes closed
Full of greed you sell your soul
Full of pride a heavy load
You eat yourself gluttony
Resent yourself you envy me
Everything turns into wrath
You lust yourself to death
Deep fears that drive us
Hid beneath disguises
Judge the world within
Forgive my deadly sins
Procrastination always giving up
Something better comes to interrupt
Cast your verdict down to me
Spare me your bleeding sympathy
Only care how you appear
Clearly see you can't see clear
Deep fears that drive us
Hid beneath disguises
Judge the world within
Forgive my deadly sins
Greed, gluttony, pride, envy, wrath, sloth, death, deadly seven
Seven deadly sins of mine
On every street
And corner lie
----------------------------------------------------
Blow me away
Was that love you declared
Only a word love can mean anything
Understand the world we're livin in
Oceans apart
What's that view from your way
Beautiful craft
Weather and change
Understand the world were living in
Love can mean anything
God made love to me
Soothed away my gravity
Gave me a pair of angels wing
Clear vision and some magic things
God made love to me
Thank you for those things
Understand the world were living in
Love can mean anything
Darling I'm open
And darling unbroken
Now we done our time
We can drift away
Like the heavy cloud
With the weight of rain
Understand the world were living in
Love can mean anything
Understand the world were living in
Love can mean anything
Understand the world were living in
Love can mean anything
Understand the world were living in
My brother told me

Father please take me back,
I don't fit in with these cruel earthlings,
I've done my time please take me home,
I was five, I was bad,
You sent me here erased my memory,
Babysitter washed my mouth with soap,
I was ten,
Had no friends,
The teacher hit me with a paddle,
The neighbors ate my little dog Ralph,
Father please take me back I don't fit in with these cruel earthlings
I've done my time please take me home
Please fly your spaceship out and beam me up
Don't leave me down here I'll be so good from now,
I had a girl,
She took her clothes off with my best friend,
I didn't know till they told me on TV,
I was mad,
My brother shot my favorite bird,
Yesterday I spent all my time
Thinking of raising myself
Forever even with you
Now I’m just wasting all this energy
Making sure you're not to blame
Never cursing you
All the people you
Put to shame
Only alone forever
You set me up feeling this way
Deceiving me into or
Blowing my mind away
You’re my new worst enemy
[Chorus:]
Maybe you’ll see
This is not for me
This is not for me
And the thing of energy
It can't make this right
No please not tonight
And I tried to forget
That by burning these bridges
I’m burning you down
And there’s nothing
I won’t try
At least I can say
That I’m living my life
And you say to me
What about your own security
And you’re throwing it
All away
Seven days being tried
I know I’ve been faithful
To my own dreams of divide
Wasting our lives together
Waiting ‘til you start to break
Your house will come down
And with it all the scars that we’ve faced
Hopefully time won’t be so easy
Check up on another one for me
My industries provided
I’m at the end of my leave
You’re my new worst enemy
[Chorus]
Don’t stay
Don’t stay
Don’t stay
(Fall, fall, fall, fall)
Please don’t stay
And I tired to forget
That by burning these bridges
I’m burning you down
And there’s nothing I won’t try
At least I can say
That I’m living my life
And you say to me
What about your own security
And you’re throwing it
Yeah, Ohoh, ahoh, ohoh
When you wanted to be with me,
I always found a way to run.
Thinking you would forgive me,
But now I'm cornered 'cause this time,
I'm going home to an empty, bed
And every hight, think it's colder cause you're not next to me
Now that your gone I hope
And pray you're okay,
Still in love with me
We ended in bad term the blame's on me.
I was prideful just because,
I was envious in love
Never could feed my hunger,
I was so full of just
You stayed faithful,
I was sloth, greedy for ya touch
My wrath made me commit,
The seven uforgivable sin
(Seven, seven) the seven unforgivable sins (seven seven) oh yeah
I should've take you more serious,
When you said the day would come
Where you would build up the strenght enough,
To throw your hands up and say your done.
Losing you wasn't worth the risk,
Do you hear me crying now?
This has to be my biggest regret ever baby
Now that your gone I hope
And pray you're okay,
Still in love with me
We ended in bad term the blame's on me.
I was prideful just because,
I was envious in love
Never could feed my hunger,
I was so full of just
You stayed faithful,
I was sloth, greedy for ya touch
My wrath made me commit,
The seven uforgivable sin
(Seven, seven) the seven unforgivable sins (seven seven) oh yeah
How could we so quickly just forget it all?
I know I'm the cause,
But if it wasn't for me
We still would be in love
Where we were or probably more
Who knows where
We could have go
Please come back to me,
(Seven seven) back to me yeah,

I've climbed the seven mountains
I sailed the seven seas
I was tempted seven times while I crossed
In seven weeks the seven fields
After weeks of lonelyness
On the way through the mystic trees
I reached a strange and lonely glade
A place no stranger had ever seen
Seven houses I could see
In a circle round an open square
Set up centurys ago
But there was no one anywhere
I felt that there was life before
I stepped out of the trees' embrace
And I could almost hear the voices
Of people living in this place
Seven hills and seven seas
Seven fields in seven weeks
Seven times I wondered why
My whole damned life was just a lie
I knocked invain I cried for help
Til I took heart and stepped inside
The first one of the houses there
Hoping for a place to hide
I walked through the rooms until
I entered the main living room
And I saw the scrawly written words
At the dirty wall I met my doom
"You've called me hore you called me witch
So I'll curse you to live on and on
Until my kingdome is about to come
Or until there will be this painful one
Who will climb the seven mountains
Sail the seven seas
Will be tempted seven times
And cross in seven weeks the seven fields"
Seven times I traced your number
Just one finger to your voice
Seven times I put the receiver down
Seven times I tried to write you
But I cannot make your choice
Your lips they move,
But they make no sound
And what the cost
What the price
I'm the brunt of friends' advice
Don't look up till you feel the ground . . .
I'm letting go 'cause holdin' on is killing me
My timing can be criminally slow
Too little too late
Criminally slow
Seven times I asked forgiveness
Seven times I'll wait you out
Seasons will change before words come round
And in my search for reasons
I will wash away the doubt
That came wrapped inside a wedding gown
And what the price
What the cost
Is this the poetry of loss
The past we build is all torn down?
I'm letting go 'cause holdin' on is killing me
My timing can be criminally slow
Is it never too late?
A seal is broken in prophecy
And you are chosen to live
All this been forseen
It's said we're living in the final days
Not much longer now
It's time to kill the hate
Or is it all to late
Seven to go till the sunrise
And the sky turns red like blood
Seven to go, we'll be waiting
Till the final hour
We will find the pain and we will carry on
We know the way, we've been there before
In your deepest thoughts you can't rationalize
What lies ahead or can you read the signs
There right before your eyes
Seven to go till the sunrise
And the sky turns red like blood
Seven to go, we'll be waiting
Till the final hour
Have you throught about
The things you're seeing
Can you say you know
What's going on now
Do you see the way this world is changing
Can you understand
The time is getting short
And in that moment, you will believe
The things forgotten and
All you could not conceive
The chance is given
You're the only one
Not much longer now
Seven till the son
Seven to go till the sunrise
And the sky turns red like blood
Seven to go, we'll be waiting
Till the final hour
Seven to go
Seven to go
Seven to go
Seven to go
Seven till the sunrise
Well, here I'm standing once again
With nowhere to go, and all my confidence is gone
I feel you're talking about us again
As if I didn't know, but still you hide behind my back
I've no respect left anymore
I thought I could trust you, but now
You've shown me who you are
You told me this, and you told me that
You're so full of shit, so much for honesty, but...
Pre-chorus
How do you like what the mirror reflects
How do you feel when you look at yourselves
How do you enjoy the time you have left
And how could you think I would forget?
Chorus
Seven
Seven--fucking years of my life
Seven
Seven
I hope it's worth the price you have paid
And what you've achieved for money, just like Judas
I guess you're sleeping well in your beds
Since you're just denying your treason
Pre-chorus
How do you like what the mirror reflects
How do you feel when you look at yourselves
How do you enjoy the time you have left
And how could you think I would forget?
Chorus
Seven
Seven--fucking years of my life
Seven
Seven
We won't be seeing each other no more
'Cause I've promised myself to stay away from all your shit
The kind of friendship you want to give to me
Is of the kind that I'll be just as fine without
Pre-chorus
How do you like what the mirror reflects
How do you feel when you look at yourselves
How do you enjoy the time you have left
And how could you think I would forget?
Chorus
Seven
Seven--fucking years of my life
Seven
Seven
Chorus
Seven
Seven--fucking years of my life

Me duele m
I got a letter, story of frustration
I got a number, counting complications
It's got me running from my situation
Blame it on my own imagination
(roll the dice)
And tell it like it is
(count it twice)
And call it was it is
RAH!
1,2,3 If you just let it be
4,5,6 Its an experience
8,9,10 Do it all again
While we're waiting on a lucky number 7
I wouldnt talk if it's not a solution
A second thought is only an illusion
And talking trash just adds to the polution
Blaming it on all of my confusion
(must be strong)
To tell it like it is
(cant be wrong)
Dont tell it what it is
RAH!
1,2,3 If you just let it be
4,5,6 Its an experience
8,9,10 Do it all again
While we're waiting on a lucky number 7
ahhh..ooooh
Waiting on a lucky number 7
I need a 7 or maybe 11
Its some kind of heaven for the lucky end
I need a 7 or maybe 11
Its some kind of heaven for the lucky end
RAH!
1,2,3 My advice
4,5,6 Roll the dice
8,9,10 Take a chance
While we're waiting on a lucky number 7
Could be luck (if you just let it be)
Dont you run (it's an experience)
Be yourself tell it like it is
RAH! RAH! RAH! RAH!
1,2,3 If you just let it be
4,5,6 Its an experience
8,9,10 Do it all again
While we're waiting on a lucky number 7
1,2,3 If you just let it be
4,5,6 Its an experience
8,9,10 Do it all again
While we're waiting on a lucky number 7
ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh ahh
[children vioce]
A tisket, A tasket
The Skarecrows out his casket
Turn off the lights and lock the door
Prayin' that he passes
[Boondox]
A vision of the dead in the inbread backwoods
Muthafucker born inside a toolshead
Momma never loved me never paid me no attention
Daddy was a rapist 30 years up state Fulton County Prison
And i was raised by my own will
Surviving off of scraps of bones, bear traps, and road kill
Spending my days and my nights all alone
And my mind is gone is something wong with my dome
Should have put me in a tomb i didnt ask for this life
When they cut me out the womb with a dull pocket knife
Now i walk with a syth and a murderous ability
Im a cornfed and mutherfucker feeled with hostility
Cracked out and im gone off that moonshine
100 dated of proof why im made from a muskadine
Out in these cornfields
Learning all these wicked skills
Swingin, slicing, choppin, dicing
Country boy born to kill
[Chorus 2x]
A demon spawn
The child of a bastard son
Seven born of seven and the
Seventh child fathered one
A soul black full of pain
Bodies in the field
Blood pourin' like rain
[Verse 2:]
Dont get lost in the woods
In ya black expidition
On the dark dirt roads
So suspecious
Just though some ditches
Hedlights flicker and its got u turning switches
Now u so damn scarred u bout to shit in yo britches
You cant think straight all u hear is heavy breathing
All your eyes just deceving what it is that u seeing
When i pull up on the ankle
Pristol in ther floorboard
Blast out ya back glass
Got u screamin"No No"
You fixin to know the reason and u about to find out
What it is to suffer with a rusted blade in your mouth
No where to run
No where to hide
Being stalked by the Skarecrow
The bloodline of Malaki
I hear these voices talkin they wont leave me alone
Tell me snatch this bitch up by her hair and drag her home
Over my shoulder in the back of a pick up truck
Cant wait to get her home and hold her, bleed her, then chop her up
[Chorus]
[Boondox]
A tisket, A tasket
The Skarecrows out his casket
Turn off the lights and lock the door
Prayin' that he passes
[Children again - repeat until song over]
A tisket, A tasket
The Skarecrows out his casket
Turn off the lights and lock the door
Oh so wrong
I was the one you leaned on
Can't pretend
Cuz my love is true
It should be me & you babe
Always knew someday
That we would have a family
Don't know what to do

(Repeat till end)
[talking:]
This it nigga, this that one lick nigga now look
We finna go, up in this motherfucking house
And we gon come out rich, or we ain't coming out at all
Y'all niggaz with this mayn, what's up mayn
Y'all niggaz ready to ball mayn, (hell yeah nigga)
Well come on let's do this shit, let's get this motherfucker
On the count of three nigga, one...two...three
Everybo- get the get the fuck on the flo', shut up bitch
[Lil' O:]
My battle plan kicks down do's, like battle rams
Release slugs to fake thugs, dismantle man
Attitude nothing to lose, the result a lack of ends
We did them Puerto Ricans real rough, they house in ten
We having thangs to pass, and wet panties now hold the hundreds
No dreaming all them balling, the definition of hustling
No Robitussin, straight bar Promethazyne
No more fucked up Cutlass, bubble Lexus sitting on 19's
Clutching Italian weapons, rapid fire on em I guess
Can't be no half stepping, everybody got brand new less
Got me a new connection, when I hit him he call right back
Sort out the Southside session, bust necks and talons gon fly at em
Man we scoring thirty, don't judge the way that we came up nigga the game's dirty
And plus my morals are fucked up, and then my mouth's hungry
And then nobody gave a fuck, when I dressed bummy
Now they all on me, they all on me
[Hook:]
Will I win, I'm stacking mail but will it end
My life revolves, around the seven sins
The jealousy is envy, ain't no motherfucking friends
The lust and the greed, be the pussy and them ends
Just look at blood me, will it finally do me in
And fucking with my pride, you'll feel the wrath I'll get revenge
Will I win-will I win, will I win-will I win-will I win
For them ends-for them ends, for them ends
[Lil' O:]
The Devil's penetrated, to this game I'm dedicated
And I never hesitated, pay the bills I'm obligated
But my life's still complicated, the only way I'll make it is staying high and intoxicated
Till my body's, devastated
My own niggaz hate it, cause I got them O's G's
And like I did they pride, to get my O-Z's cheddar and my ki's
They tried to set me up, wet me up on South Main
Niggaz started running up, I felt it coming like a nut
So I grab my gat and start to bust, like nigga what
Lil' O peeled like Versacci, you hoes got me fucked up
I'm blasting, I ducked my head I hit the gas I'm mashing
Then grabbed the cellular, started calling Miles Hanson
Imagine we been cool, since High School hallways
Now these same fools, aiming slugs at my bald fade
But the seven sins, turn friends to foes
Like ladies into hoes, the Devil's got our soul
And we done lost control, an who would ever know
That I would aim for foes, and boys I call my bros
Until they eyes were closed, but nigga love don't live here no mo'
If you niggaz wanna war, I'll take your ass to war
[Hook]
[Lil' O:]
I guess there can only be one Don, like horns and unicorns
The killers that smoke wet, with mask and uniforms
Kick down your do' at night, watching you fucking your baby's mom
And chop you up lovely, for thinking that you the bomb
We was wrong, more of that money split up friends
My heart strong, we've got to stay family till the end
Now it's gone, but I still I keep my money and fame
But still I mourn, cause wasn't worth this heartache and pain
It left a strain on my brain, for several days I cried
Cause when I said the love was gone, deep in my heart I lied
But I still did it, only the strong survive
I gotta deal with it, when you war you kill or you die
I hit the freeway high, thinking when we jacked them Ricans
And thanked the Lord for their ki's, and they Benjamin Franklin's
But it was really saying, a master plan under cover
We jack to keep our family strong, and ended up killing eachother
[Verse 1: Planetary]
Yeah! Yo, uh,
A lotta rappers try approaching the omen,
My palms are punishin' people while I'm up at the podium,
Pharaohs folding 'em, like washed clothes again,
I'm a vulture when the flow go choke your kid,
Broke, I leave most of them, slow, I keep my motionin'
Eye on the prize,
I silence the wise, with lyrics make a scientist cry,
Making a secret society expose they purpose,
Making 'em unleash info and exploding my surface,
I'm taking my time to birth this, rap entity earthless,
It's show time, there's no time, we ready when the curtain split,
I'm hurting shit, too powerful for painkillers
On the concrete jungle, we walk like trained guerrillas
Untamed, and my niggas is Kane
Kool G, Rakim, combine into one frame
We like the new mecca of immaculate rappers,
Vinnie Paz, call the ghouls, now we back with the clappers.
[Verse 2: Chief Kamachi]
The man silent, kill him with what I mentally says,
Bloody Fez, choke you like an Indian res
Kamach, animal Turk, sick with a cannibal smirk,
Welcome, this where the murderers lurk,
It's my mind, to make sure that the Sun can work,
Scorch bodies, leave all of your gunmen hurt,
Pharaoh sultans, create a serious cult jam,
And my hand is where the tears of the pope ran,
They stay watching like they keep me on a scope cam,
I'm in heaven with the angels and smoke grams,
You need God, that's why the earth so damned,
International, trying to get my flow banned,
That's cool, if I don't kick these prayers,
A lot of floods and famine's gonna hit these years,
Kamachi back on the chapel stairs,
Open the clouds, let the thunder clap your ears. (Chyea! )
[Verse 3: King Syze]
If you wanna put your money up then muthafucka then put it,
For your families sanity man I wish that you wouldn't,
Niggas got nice flows, just don't know where to put it,
And I know your whole life your raps are edited footage,
Hey y'all mixtape niggas couldn't see my plateaus,
All up in my presence why y'all actin bashful,
King Syze cats and any clique they rap for,
Y'all little light niggas couldn't feed my shadows,
From, city to city, intersection to session,
What you reflexin, with or without a weapon,
I'm always steppin, Never scared,
But always and forever prepared,
Yeah the ones who drink gas man, is revvin' they gears.
[Verse 4: Reef the Lost Cauze]
You now rocking with the foulest clique in the continent,
Total dominance, rise to prominence,
In my prime like Optimus,
Stand in astonishment,
Act as conglomerate, an axis of evil,
I know where Osama is, he down in Camp David,
Down and dirty like a damp basement,
The champ must demand greatness,
From himself, or be another contender,
There's 100's of niggas,
Dead left under the river,
From the days of slaves,
To Hurricanes in Orleans,
See my peoples graves floatin amongst,
The waves, there's hell to pay, but
The devil don't take checks,
I try to send a message to God,
His phone don't take text,
I need a new plan, a crook with knowledge,
Times is hard homie, why I took them dollars,
Man, my momma got a mortgage,
And my little baby sista' need books for college,
I rob all y'all.
[Verse 5: Doap Nixion]
Hey yo,
They want the hood in here so they called me first,
I get em rappers Gatorade cuz they ball with thirst, UH!
This is more then music,
But these niggas is mad trash,
That's why the stores refuse em, yo,
I'm out in Georgia goin straight to the block,
I'm seein cats motorcyclin dawg I'm doin the wop,
I'm an OG, I call my Italian niggas a wop,
Though they papers aint right but they got weight on the block,
I love em uh,
Hand to hand till your hands ache,
I drunk so much syrup dawg I stop eatin pancakes,
Ya niggas cool dawg mines absurd hot,
Stop frontin like you's a killa money your nerves shot,
Yo you's a paxel Nigga, Dumpin Zoloft in coffee,
AOTP will exhaust b,
Can't keep it gear, cuz I'm blinging with F's,
But I got my mind right so swing your shit to the left.
[Verse 6: Demoz]
Nigga, If I had 24 hours to live,
Fuck 24 hours, gimme 24 seconds,
Vin I'm drivin off a bridge,
Broken rib, no windshield, covered in kerosene,
Gasoline, tank filled to the top,
Magazines of these phony rappers ripped in pieces,
No preachers, strong enough to take me outta my zone,
I broke jesus, choke niggas who squeal,
Rob niggas who steal, kill niggas who kill,
I'm too sick for a pill,
Man these niggas aint real they real fake,
They say they a man but they fuckin' with real snakes,
That's when you put em in a trunk with they grill taped,
Whip in reverse and run into a steel gate,
I'm a suicide driver, never been a liar,
If I don't kill you later I'ma kill you "Manana",
Y'all don't want know problems,
Y'all don't want no drama,
Nigga I'ma take a trip with your baby momma, Suicide Driver.
[Verse 7: Celph Titled]
Ya betta cross your T's,
Cuz we'll dot your I's,
You can say that you specialize but Pharaohs will optimize,
Backstage will get a bitch backsmacked there,
The macplayer like dirty south pimpslapped clap snares, (YEAAH)
Holy Paragraphs, (What kind of shit is that? )
I'm Jesus in the flesh so this is muthafuckin Christian rap,
Y'all just Christmas wrap, must be the secret Santa,
My reindeer aim near, pierce you with the antlers,
I made em go easy, and called off the wolves on my AOTP radio CB,
Cuz y'all ain't worthy of grenades and RPG's,
Slit throat hope you float with sardines and seaweed,
Cuz this is C-E, L-P-H
Demonic symphony, listen to the hell we make,
And a year before your kids 10th birthday came,
You didn't have to wait for candles on the cake to see the nine flame.
[Verse 8: Vinnie Paz]
Respect a G, my clique clap at you incessantly,
I lay back and drink alcohol excessively,
There ain't a rapper that's alive today that's testing me,
I got degrees in being ignorant and weaponry,
A 40 oz and a dutch master is the recipe,
That's my shit there that'll be the death of me,
Give me a death mask, better yet a effigy,
I understand the math of death and it's complexity,
I understand how you was violently murdered,
I understand how you was raised under the lies of the church, (ha-ha-ha-ha)
But understand and recognize that I'm cursed,
With the ability to end your fucking lives with a verse.
Yeah!
Brraat brraaat!!
Paz-man, AOTP, I'll Bill on the beat
Billy Crystal, what up baby? La Coka!
I've got a few true friends making stakes by my side
Give me the odds, odds don't mean a thing to me
We slam the door behind
Heading for year 99
Taking back the ground like chronic thieves
Don't like the pace cuz it's too slow
We make our stakes in a shabby casino
And all these people
I've seen them grow
I've seen them come back in a row
And so we hope for a seven
And as the dices stop the role
We're patiently watin'
And so we hope for a seven
That's how we do it
We're accelerating
And as the dices are rolling, bouncing on the floor
They're making way thru a layer of dust
And now I understand
As the dices left my hand
See this man
Pick these pieces of me from the ground that I
Worshiped you upon
Why the fuck God
Why can't you feel
Why did you let her
Take me away
Can't you feel this
Can't you even understand
Why'd you let her
Take me away
Oh my God
Sanctuary were her hands that held me then she
walked away
Why the fuck God
Why can't you feel
Why did you let her
Take me away
Can't you feel this
Can't you even understand
Why'd you let her
The Mole had been working very hard all the morning,
Spring-cleaning his little home.
First with brooms, then with dusters;
Then on ladders and steps and chairs,
With a brush and a pail of whitewash;
Till he had dust in his throats and eyes,
And splashes of whitewash all over his black fur.
Spring was moving in the air above
And in the earth below and around him,
Penetrating even his small dark and lowly little house
With its spirit of divine discontent and longing.
It was small wonder, then,
That he suddenly flung down his brush on the floor
And said, "Bother!"
Something up above was calling him.
So he scraped and scratched and scrabbled and scrooged
and then scrooged again and scrabbled and scratched and scraped,
Working busily with his little paws and muttering to himself,
"Up we go! Up we go!"
Until at last, pop.
His snout came out into the sunlight
And he found himself rolling in the warm grass of a great meadow.
"This is fine," he said to himself.
And jumping off all his four legs at once
In the joy of living and the delight of spring,
He pursued his way across the meadow
Till he reached the hedge on the further side.
Hither and thither through the meadows he rambled busily,
Finding everywhere birds building, flowers budding, leaves thrusting
everything happy, and progressive, and occupied.
And instead of having an uneasy conscience pricking him,
He somehow could only feel how jolly it was to be
The only idle dog among all these busy citizens.
He thought his happiness was complete when,
As he meandered aimlessly along,
Suddenly he stood by the edge of a full-fed river.
Never in his life had he seen a river before
This sleek, sinuous, full-bodied animal, chasing and chuckling,
Gripping this with a gurgle and leaving them with a laugh,
To fling itself on fresh playmates that shook themselves free,
And were caught and held again.
All was a-shake and a-shiver
Flints and gleams and sparkles, rustle and swirl, chatter and bubble.
The mole was bewitched, entranced, fascinated.
By the side of the river he trotted as on trots,
when very small, by the side of a man
who holds one spell-bound by exciting stories;
And when tired at last, he sat on the bank,
While the river chattered on to him,
A babbling procession of the best stories in the world,
Sent from the heart of the earth to be told at last to the insatiable sea.
The mole waggled his toes from sheer happiness,
Spread his chest with a sigh of full contentment,
And leaned back blissfully.
sew it on
face the fool
December's tragic drive
when time is poetry
when stolen the world outside
the waiting (could) crush my heart
no...
sew it on
face the fool
the tidal wave of fear
and brave songs disappear
the secret voice of dawn
this last time raise my eyes
no...
you'll taste it
you'll taste it
in time
the right words
in time
the right words
sew it on
face the fool
the mirrors lie, those aren't my eyes
destroy them, raise my hand
reflected in savage shards
a new face, a soul reborn
no...
you'll taste it
you'll taste it
in time
the right words
Forget what I said and why I said it
I don't think you ever wanted to know
You wanna make an excuse on your own
Rather decide who you could blame it on
I get the picture you like me to see
Whatever you can so you can get your piece
I'll live and die but I will never believe
I stayed so long and that I let my whole body bleed
What's fucking wrong with your head?
What's fucking wrong with your head?
I bet you swear you never did it
But I gotta tell you somethin' while we're alone
Hide your lies but lies make burns
I've got a scar so now I've got a concern
You ain't a human, you're more like a disease
Some of the sickest shit I've ever seen
I'll live and die but I will never believe
I stayed so long and that I let my whole body bleed
What's fucking wrong with your head?
What's fucking wrong with your head?
Forget what I said and why I said it
I don't think you ever wanted to know
You wanna make an excuse on your own
Rather decide who you could blame it on
I get the picture you like me to see
Whatever you can so you can get your piece
I'll live and die but I will never believe
I stayed so long and that I let my whole body bleed
What's fucking wrong with your head?
You've got it on too tight, too tight
What's fucking wrong with your head?
You've got it on too tight, too tight
What's fucking wrong with your head?
You've got it on too tight, too tight
What's fucking wrong with your head?
Seven was her lucky number
Before she met you
She was a spunky girl, a bummer, a hand-drummer
And she loved you
She had long hair
She was never all there
If you look away, you’ll miss her
Sometimes she wants to be free
You’ve just gotta let her be
Don’t fear her or forget her
CHORUS
Please, please, little girls
Don’t run away from your fears
Please, please little girls
You are running to a place you’ll never get to
They promised her it wouldn’t matter
She’d rather have it never be
Don’t think about it
Don’t talk to me
I can’t breath
What is she to you?
A talker, a night stalker
Her door is closed
Our eyes wide open
What a scene
She just wants to scream
“How can this thing happen to me?”
So clear and I can barely see
She is still the same
Everything has changed
And no one even knows it
CHORUS
Beautiful and misdirected
Overprotected
She was still affected
Easily confused
A drinker, an over thinker
Always her own muse
CHORUS X2
in a moment he steps away
and the grin on her lips
fades away
and the silence
to her is golden
as the plan that she makes
out of fear
a sixpence of holdings
leaves her wallowing
and her thoughts plead
today is the day
but the strain on her needs
is what's strangling
not needed, not wanted,
not dear
it's not enough,
no not enough at all
not at all
it's long enough
she says, to fall
long to fall
travel down her frown
to find the thoughts of
love pondering
justifyingly covering
the weak
her Galahad has
just been wandering
perhaps the steel
softens his fall
but we all see
his fists rendering
against his will
and back again
no longer just a
bad day simmering
it's not enough
no not enough at all
not at all
it's long enough
she says, to fall
long to fall
so she lands and he smiles
it's over for awhile
and the grasp of his love
leaves her gasping for air
Lie awake completely satisfied and let the sweat run through my hair
Well, I haven't felt this way in quite some time, when I look over your not there
Pain I won't let you slip away, no everybody makes mistakes sometimes
Everyone here knows this is killing me
It tears the soul straight from my spine, but in the end I guess the truth is shown
That you won't ever really be mine
I shuffled through the lies and
Pain I won't let you slip away, no everybody makes mistakes sometimes
So rain on my parade, rain on my parade, rain
I figured it out this time and I guess that's a start
You're only half as smart as the one that tears you apart
Let the evidence show that I never really had a case
I'd like to wipe that smile right off your fucking face
Feel the tears run down so I guess I lost control
Everybody knows something I ain't ever gonna know
And if this wound ever heals maybe I'll sleep again
Somebody please kill me before I am dead
Lie awake completely satisfied and let the sweat run through my hair
Well I haven't felt this way in quite some time, when I look over your not there
Pain I won't let you slip away, no everybody makes mistakes
Now rain on my parade, rain on my parade rain
I won't let you, I won't let you make mistakes, make mistakes
I won't let you slip away cause everybody makes mistakes
Walk the gauntlet of lies.
Who will it be today...
Secrets of this place,
Never knowing...
Follow the ones that consume,
Becoming just like them.
Fade away among the crowds, again.
And I can read the stains inside your mind,
Remains of the beauty.
And I can hope for the silence of your words,
Cause I know I'll be caught here...
And I could never really find the answers,
Always locked inside of something so close.
And I could never really find the reasons,
Just assumed it was you.
Pushed in a corner where screams die,
Fighting to stay alive.
Cower down to be alone.
Nothing is worth this.
When is the right time to let it all go?
Not that it matters... but I fear,
I fear that someday
It'll find it's way to you.
I could never really find the answers,
Always locked inside of something so close.
I could never really find the reasons,
Just assumed it was you.
I could never really find the answers,
Always locked inside of something so close.
I could never really find the reasons,
You are a phantom without a host.
You are the victim of a ghost.
You're not the fallen,
they made it to cut you down.
You are not the sinner,
they just tell you that so you will stay.
They are not the pious,
it's all a facilitated to the superior.
he's not your God.
While you pray down on your knees,
we stand up straight and see right past the blindfolded message.
Straight to the golden idol you've made of a lie.
It's an empty sky to which you testify.
Save your savior for someone else.
Open your eyes,
It's not a path I'd ever take.
I'm sorry I chose reason over irrational beliefs
to satisfy the nature of needing to explain everything.
Liars all of you, selling products that don't exist.
Look what you've done to us.
Fuck you all;
you are the love i know will never go. i feel this time we will watch it grow. living moments that speak right to my soul. keep you inside no matter where i roam. now i don't feel so alone with fears of facing all the unknown. live inside the moment knowing we can't hold it. wouldn't change it if i could. standing right here watching life unfold. speaking this life until the story is told. spreading our souls so we hit the road. keep you inside no matter where i roam. if you ever needed me you know i am here i will never leave you. i am always here. coming from the inside, speaking from the soul. reaching out from all i know. this is how it's got to be this is what i know. life inside the music
Distracting from
your deficiencies
while you point at others.
(Once) enlightened
you judge and execute.
To be the only one
to discover the seven,
(To) toss open and pass
the gates to heaven.
Sleep my baby..... dream... a peaceful dream

Can't you see that the world has been deceived - We've been masked by tyranny, Overrun by wealth and greed - And the price of life
has been down to feed your wealth and keep your - crown - Of thorns you wear but I'm not scared to fight for right or loose my - life but - I won't
die for you - But I'm still ready to die for something - I won't die for you - But I'm still ready to die for something else - And we will still be here
waiting when they come home - Just like before - And I hope that the blood of the children stains your dreams - It stains your dreams - For all
these years you have manufactured fears - The problem that your facing here is we still have our eyes and ears - We will not stand another day,
the sacrifice the price we pay - Is that you throw our lives away when we don't get to have a say - But - I won't die for you - But I'm still ready to
die for something - I won't die for you - But I'm still ready to die for something else - And we will still be here waiting when they come home - Just
like before - And I hope that the blood of the children stains your dreams - It stains your dreams - Will we ever learn - Or will the violence kill us all
- As we slowly watch our world fall - I see their faces - You cant erase this - And in my dreams I still see peace - But at this rate it will never be -
I will never die for you
So I'm a sleth and you're the one who try to label me.
But I take pride in myself despite all your jealousy.
I'm a nighthawk and a scarecrow.
I'm as wrathful as can be.
Way to greedy to be on your list of innocence.
Id rather loose than play by your rules.
All seven and we watch them fall.
(Watch them fall) I've done it all.
Your lies echoes down the drain.
All seven and we watch them fall.
(Watch them fall) I've done it all.
I'll regret the day I meet my maker.
So I'm a glutten and I envy all that comes around.
My lust is raising as I greed for your tremendous crown.
I'm a nighthawk a scarecrow.
I'm as wrathful as can be.
Way to greedy to be on your list of innocence.
I'd rather loose than play by your rules.
All seven and we watch them fall.
(Watch them fall) I've done it all.
Your lies echoes down the drain.
All seven and we watch them fall.
(Watch them fall) I've done it all.
I'll regret the day I meet my maker.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. HATE!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. HATE!
I will watch them fall.
(Watch them fall) I've done it all.
Your lies echoes down the drain.
All seven and we watch them fall.
(Watch them fall) I've done it all.
You'll be the only one
Leading a mile in front
You'll be the guardian
You'll give them what want
You'll be the only one
Nothing's easy that takes the price down
If you need me send up a lone sound
We'll be waiting out in the hallway too
With friends and enemies
And all that's in between
One minute on your knees
The next they're begging please
With friends and enemies
Nothing's easy that takes the price down
If you need me send up a lone sound
We'll be waiting out in hallway too
We can't be saved from what we love
From rabbit holes into kid gloves
Palest earth to darkest thought
We choose the either or
Nothing's easy that takes the price down
If you need me send up a lone sound
We'll be waiting out in the hallway too
Nothing's easy that takes the price down
If you need me send up a lone sound
It’s all over

pretty, pretty girl, I’m in heaven
every day and night, together
partly me and partly mother
now the twain have met, my daughter
do you want to be a shop-assistant?
do you really want to sing on TV?
let your voice ring out, I am seven
from dusk ’till dawn forever
pretty, pretty girl, I’m in heaven
every day and night, together
girl, look around, the world is waiting
put your helmet on – that’s better
And the eternal way of the world
Seems to be a neverending wheel of confrontations
There's always someone to rule the game
And taking shares from the ones who can't
Defend their landmarks
Now the world is still in motion
And the shores are open wide
There's always someone to fight them one by one
To conquer new lands, fulfilling their plans to rule forever
I don't think anyone in this world
Can be the judge of what is right or wrong in man's behavior
So don't come preaching, don't need your truth
It seems like conflicts always have been around since dawn of time
Still the world is spinning around
And the shores are burning bright
Time never changes, they're never turning back
Convincing new minds
That now is the time to rule eternally
Never again I'll walk this surface
Open your mind lights struck before
These eyes I'm finding my way through
Darkness and sunlight wherever you'll be
There's no need to hide your face
I'm gonna spread my wings
And let them carry me away
I might just lie there for a while
And for one moment touch the sky
And never see through darkened eyes
Never again
What can I do, the truth affects me
I'm leaving my mind, my final destiny
I'm falling asleep and I want you to sit
By my side lost in a world
Grace my eternity
I went in circles for a long time
And always seemed to come back to where I started
I searched for places far beyond my mind
But found that peace of mind was buried here
Along this sacred land
From this day and forever after
I will carry my flag with honour and pride
Gliding through all the empty faces
Reflecting
-The colors I've seen
-The shade of who I am
-My pain disappears
When the questions had no answers
When all knowledge was beyond reach
I had a strange but present feeling
That I would find this place
-I've been here all the time without knowing
From this day and forever after
I will carry my cross with honour and pride
Through the years to my final journey
I will alaways remember this day
-And I hold my hands high
-Embraced by this moment
I'm one with the land I've found out who I am
Don't let dreams fade away
I follow my faith to where it leads me...
Dream away, I'll be keeping the light when I'm shown here again
Breathing again, I'll let go of the pain that I've felt to this day
And this strong feeling will guide me the way from drifting away again
I won't let it fade away
Make my voice a crime - I will cry out louder
Silence my voice - I will create a new one
Make my signs a crime - I will hold them higher
Silence my voice - ten will raise to take my place
Silence my voice - but my words will live forever
Silence my voice - but my words will live forever
There comes a time to take back what was mine
When our colours're waving in the wind
I will never give in - we will never give in
We just play it out louder like many did before
And nothing can stop us, cause there comes many more
We just play it out louder like many did before
And nothing can stop us, cause there comes many more
Every day I seek ways to convince them
That it's still not too late to react
And I think to myself - what a wonderful day
When we'll throw them all away
In forgotten places where the sun doesn't shine
I'm walking through my shadow to confront my beliefs
I've always tried to keep up with the truth that I know
So I can recognize the face I see in the mirror
Forever free from the lies I used to hear
Never again they will arise
We can never tell what's right or wrong
If we keep on pretending we're blind
Today the march begins we know you stand by our side
This night nothing can stop us and our dream
Rise up to be free with us and show them your light
Returning from dark years right in our time
Can we break the chains of silence?
Are the answers there to find?
Darkness hides the truth from their eyes
The time for our stand is now
Tomorrow and forever on is our time to rule
The victory together we will find
The song will once again make you remember the words
You'll never walk alone here from this day
In my own dreams I would live here forever
If I could make all I did undone
What can I say to those who stood by me
Well I can hardly see them again
I know it's too late for you to forgive me
Though I regret everything I did
I feel like I'm screaming but nobody hears me
They wouldn't care anyway
Was it worth all pain, I'm crying in the wind
I must answer myself everyday
Was it worth all pain, I'm crying in my sleep
And my conscience will never be clear
All of a sudden my eyes saw new places
Calling me now and I know it's time
To reach for tomorrow, and leave all behind me
A place so far away from myself
I open the gate to a whole new dimension
Finding my last call has to be made
Never again I'll live by their side
Building new strength not to stand in their line
I will always remember this day
Breaking their limits, no reason to stay
I'm leaving the place where I used to belong
And finally starting my journey home
Hear the old songs in the night
With words you weren't allowed to hear
See pride returning to their faces
They're dancing their forbidden dance
To the sound of the drum
Beating feet to the ground
And each step is another nearer the end
They will change the world
When their voice will be heard
And they know it is time to do it now
Break the chains of silence - hear the drums in the night
No walls in the world can stop them
'Cause they're gonna make them fall
The ground is shaking to the sound
Of hundred men when morning comes
That morning I'll be one of them
And show the world who I am
If you tell me to wait like you've told me before
It will soon be too late
Hear the needle touch
Joy fills my heart when the
Black circle starts to spin
See how proud it stands
An old faded cover tells
Stories from glorious days
Hear the circle sing
The genuine sound
Bring back memories
From forgotten times
I know their time is over
Their place on the throne is gone
They won't reach another level
But they're always staying alive
Size is evident
Pictures of heroes on covers
You're seeing them clearly
I bleed for this passion
Thunder delivered!
It's far beyond borders I know
Hear the circle sing
The genuine sound
Brings back memories
From the forgotten times
Atmosphere so great
Strikes the ground
Though their time is lost
They're never gonna die
Can you be free from your heavy load?
You will find that your dreams come true
Can you see through the endless lies?
You will find that your goals are near
There's no time to wait for the sunlight
It's so easy to just fade away
Let your heart glow through the seasons
Join this journey to find better days
Fill the long empty days
Take power through strength
Find your own way
United by faith
United we stand
United we stand - forever now
United we stand
For this day, for this time
On through the night in the winter snow
In the end there's light to find
Struggle so hard to fulfill my quest
But I know that my time will come
I've got nothing to lose on this journey
Cause I started with two empty hands
I see light in the end of the tunnel
I won't let anything pass me by
I won't wait for the sun to reach me
I will make it rise by myself
Glory days from the past won't come back
We'll create a new time and make our own rules
I'm going through changes
But I felt the same way a long time ago
It's this time or never
I will make it stronger than ever before
Some are slaves behind their numbers
And some take shelter in their time
But I've got no time to spare
Bleeding... I kill myself to stay alive
Bleeding... out the poison in my veins
Bleeding... I kill myself to stay alive
Bleeding...
You're free to speak
Every word that may come to your mind
But I just don't care
Cause I'm not another invented disease
Many men were here before me
But I don't need to follow them
And I always stand in the end
I will carry on my way I won't follow any rules
And if the wind will catch our sails I won't be the one to complain
And I won't take any blame for following an easy ride
Cause I've been down this road before when all was a wasteland
I'm workin hard son certain to get the job done
Excuse me flirtin with stardom but not a groupie
My ratin droppin a doosie watchin a movie
Because what Im spittin a lot (tipper) than (hawk tooie)
I spit fire all you mcs are tracking about it
Try and dis gimme a mic I turn cats to liars
Havent given a thumbs up get your thumbs up
This isnt kids stuff fuck getting your thumb sucked
This shits for grown folks dont approach
Cuz I got it sewn while you players are sowin oats
Id rather bless em and make em turn christian
Better learn and listen or become one of my burn victims
[Kimani]
I be the energies of people before they say shit
To peep they fake appearance like Joan River's facelift
By my name of hieroglyphics you could say Im prolific
I left something for lost ones who missed the space ship
All aboard these concepts beyond your vision
I got intergalactic the minute your block formed your opinion
Born and raised off the boulevard of lyndon
Where people do what they feel regardless if they're forgiven
We all livin the X Generation of children
and we all givin what we got to give on this mission
Till this world's ended and meets with a sudden collision
Yo we bring it back ten times more efficient
[Oracle]
Yo yo yo yo we rock harder than jams by Vincer Carter
Using art of war tactics smash kids that oughta know better
Than to test the clique we flow better
From the NYC givin more Fitz than Ella
Set it off now you wanna brawl we rock yall
Cut you in half then watch you fall like Darth Maul
All of these kids hatin against my one band
Soundin silly like Wesley Snipes needin a sun tan
I be the one man here sippin Guinness and beer
As the whole hemisphere sittin quakin in fear
Dont near to this kid quickly youll learn how shits flipped
I got the whole world tapin my joints like Linda Tripp
[El-P]
Decrepit as the sweaty inner ass cheeks of Dennis Franz (???)
Son of a dirty monkey the thug grabs abusive
Whore and a smack before I rock toothless
Ambesin, Lake and palm is bad medicine
With brakes for hands dance to the pain game
Worker ant rebel rebel work car radio reject the fat though
Sliced nice exacto
Its a sunny night for gash and lure the tact contract
Killer villain sick villain
Blankets for indians this here's for children
Fun for the internet just say no to cigarettes
You're soft as pikachu on roofies in a bathtub
I can see the inexeperience in your aura slash coding
The perpetrator math that you taught is eroding
Fuck it im bonin
[J-Live]
I keep honey in my archives to transform crowds into beehives
You best to be-lieve that J be Live
Arrive at this conclusion upon my introduction
from distance when the name rings bells you feel the suction
So in order to survive while going to J-Live
realize to speak wise by the way your lyrics (arrive)
Because in the obstruction of justice in my construction
Will lead to your abduction which leads to your destruction
For those that oppose the will or doubt the skill
I put you on the clock when I got time to kill
And seein as how there's never been a time better than now
Rewind rewards you wit a free refill
[Mr. Complex]
We're right here and right now how
This way straight the lyrical blaw
that blow you away to kingdom come
Singin um me me me Im self-centered when I wore my cords
Oh my lord give me strength and stamina
for the extra length of the diameter
Im aires and a (rameter)
The same way I was diagramming-a
Im figure a You're figure b
?? complex it was hard to figure me
Im outspoken broken english hairline fracture words
Im on some Hitchcock shit throw me along from the pack of birds
Feel the vultures they about to die soon feel the typhoon
Say hello to your high ass right here at high noon
There's a war between these underground and these commercial acts
Put us on the same stage and well just hurt these cats
we hurt em
we hurt em
[Shaabaam Sahdeeq]

Money I take along wit ya life and ya wife and ya mic
suckling at the nectar of dreams
let this body be a honeytree
leaves like dragonfly wings
this world is beautiful
i’m still listening
tell me everything
streaks of crimson in a deep blue sky
bright as tigers eyes
god is a messy child
with a funny sense of grace
some things are for keeps
even memory can’t erase
every day i laugh out loud
wake this day, i feel the pain
crucified again
sleep this way, i feel the pain
crucified again
and i don't wanna be fallen
i just walk away and wonder why
i still make you cry
selfish path i take
sinful wine i taste
i feel the pain
crucified again
desperate road i lead
giving in my every need
i feel the pain
crucified again
7 time seven times 7
i take the nails
You say when the coastline lights are waving
That they shine like precious threads of pearls
And your house of clay built by the river
Host your faith in serendipity...
And your house of clay built with your strong arms
Host your faith in serendipity...
What I've been waiting for, you are, hmm, you are...
You know...
So I keep carrying on, so I keep carrying on...
Only hope can be above it all...
Above it all...
You know... you know...
Pride had Faith on the road, then they walked for awhile
'Til they sussed Hope and Lust, who winked at Faith and smiled
Though Lust Faith had always hated, Pride held Hope and soon was sated
So Gluttony and Sloth were born of Faith and Hope's desire
In the froth of Pride their sire
The barbarity is Charity is wet nurse to both
In prosperity a verity loathed
As we search and search, but do not find
Some kind of heaven, seven
When the seventh surgeon kissed her and enhanced her
Then my well-missed sister was burgeoning with cancer
The transcendentalist had shown her the answer
You're never alone when you're a topless dancer
As inside we fight what we hide from sight
All is equable in God's own eyes
Seven wrong and seven right
Wrath came upon Fortitude in the flowers
Prudence spied from the path, while Fortitude coaxed and mewed for hours
Then to Temperance his wife's dismay
Wrath quaffed Greed and Envy's cunning offering of a cocktail tray
Now Wrath subdued Envy with Greed raped Fortitude
'Til Justice descended her tower and spoke
She Wrath awoke and held Wrath's coat while Wrath slit both their throats
Seven sisters smoking marijuana, mexicana
In their Duenna's absence, listening to Madonna
With their pasha distant, subsistent on bananas
Ever glister in their visitless zenana
Seven days and seven nights, seven brothers, seven kites
Flown on seven testing flights, seven days the sun shone bright
Seven nights by candlelight
Well this is a letter
To everyone who thinks that they know better
To every girl that thinks that I won't get her
If she's rough with you
There's nothing that I'd rather do than fight
This is a warning
To everyone who thinks that I'm in mourning
You know they're wrong in fact
I'm reassuring you that I'll be true
Won't let no one mess with you tonight
So it's gonna be heads up, heads up
They're gonna get messed up, messed up
For making you cry
And please don't you get down, get down
'cause you were no let down, let down
I won't say goodbye
I got your back until I die
I don't care if you don't want me sticking by
I'll keep ten feet behind just to walk you home
And I'm gonna protect you till I die
I won't let nobody hurt you again
I'll fuck up your next girlfriend if she breaks your heart
This is forever
I'm done pretending that it's now or never
I got no other motives whatsoever than to talk to you
Make sure that you're gonna be all right
So I'll see you later
If you meet someone go ahead and date her
And if she's good to you then I won't hate her
I won't fuck her up
But if she's bad to you well then I might
So it's gonna be heads up, heads up
They're gonna get messed up, messed up
For making you cry
And please don't you get down, get down
'cause you were no let down, let down
I won't say goodbye
I got your back until I die
I don't care if you don't want me sticking by
I'll keep ten feet behind just to walk you home
And I'm gonna protect you till I die
I won't let nobody hurt you again
I'll fuck up your next girlfriend if she breaks your heart
And I got your back until I die
I don't care if you don't want me sticking by
I'll keep ten feet behind just to walk you home
And I'm gonna protect you till I die
I won't let nobody hurt you again
Your blood runs cold
Colder then the fear
I n your eyes
And mine wont look away this time
T he life you led
H as cut through your souls depth
N ow its your hour
Its time to reap what youve sewn
Cower
The lifes you rape are not your own
Its our eyes that blind
Cut out the ones that look away
M y weakness ends
So does the reign of your destrucion
Power
Cut through the weakness
Break the bones
In hands that hold me back
Hour
Its time to reap what youve sewn
Cower
The lifes you rape
Your blood runs cold
Your blood runs cold
Break the bones
In hands that hold me back
Break the bones
seven,
eyes conveyed what i saw through the flames which were 14 eyes staring down at me, there were seven, alone, lost in the world of the unkown, trying to find their way out of the shadows.
seven
eyes conveyed what i saw through the flames which were 14 lives in calamity, there were seven, alone, lost in the world of the unknown, comin through the stereo full blown.
Seven times I traced your number
Just one finger to your voice
Seven times I put the receiver down
Seven times I tried to write you
But I cannot make your choice
Your lips they move,
But they make no sound
And what the cost
What the price
I'm the brunt of friends' advice
Don't look up till you feel the ground . . .
I'm letting go 'cause holdin' on is killing me
My timing can be criminally slow
Too little too late
Criminally slow
Seven times I asked forgiveness
Seven times I'll wait you out
Seasons will change before words come round
And in my search for reasons
I will wash away the doubt
That came wrapped inside a wedding gown
And what the price
What the cost
Is this the poetry of loss
The past we build is all torn down?
I'm letting go 'cause holdin' on is killing me
My timing can be criminally slow
Is it never too late?
november screams outloud "the seventh, the seventh"
and ohio's burial shroud binds up the desert
november screams outloud "the seventh, the seventh"
and ohio's burial shroud shadows the crescent
but what is hopeful? what is hopeless?
when the needs of the populus
become politics
november screams in chorus line
to deadlocked votes and wasted time
there is no them, there is no us
just tow the party line
and the dream
All love slowly fades
While we refuse change
And all things come and go
This we know
This we know
You can find a reason for anything
And you can make excuses for all bad things
And you can justify
Before present occurs
So you can walk away
Before I, before I begin to hurt
Can't you see that I still believe
That as long as you dream
Some things will always be
So please don't poison me
So please don't poison me
With your bitterness
You look but you see right through me
Like I don't exist
I don't exist
But I point and say you are a liar
It's all over
It's all over now
The seal is broken
Creatures spoken now
I hope you come up
To heaven right now
It's all over
It's all over now
Can I be changed?
Or am I the same?
It's all over
It's all over now
The roof of hiding
With children fighting now
i hope you come up to heaven right now
It's all over
It's all over now
Can I be the same?
The rain is falling
The rain is falling now
Today were leaving
Our souls are calling now
Stars on his right
Holding seven right now
The rain is falling
The rain is falling now
Can I be changed?
Or am I the same?
It's all over
It's all over now
The roof of hiding
With children fighting now
I hope you come up to heaven right now
It's all over
It's all over now
Can I be the same?
The same....
Or can I be changed?
It's all over
It's all over now
The roof of hiding
With children fighting now
I hope you come up to heaven right now
It's all over
It's all over now
Can I be the same?
Well, can I be the same?
The same
The same
I've got a friend who I've known since I was seven
We used to talk on the phone, if we had time, if it's the right time
Accompany me by the kitchen sink
We talk about love, we talk about dishwasher tablets, illness
And we dream about heaven
I know it, I think I know it from a hymn
They've said so, it doesn't need more explanation
A box to open up with light and sound
Making you cold
Very cold
I leave home at seven
Under a heavy sky, I ride my bike up, I ride my bike down
November smoke and your toes go numb
A new colour on the Globe
It goes from white to red, a little voice in my head says oh, oh, oh
I know it, I think I know it from a hymn
They've said so, it doesn't need more explanation
A box to open up with light and sound
And if you don't
God gave Jesus a revelation
And the Lord sent His angel to John
The faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead
The ruler of the kings of all the earth
The one who loves us and has freed us from our sins
His blood has washed clean and now He's coming
So shall it be, Amen
Seven: the number of churches
Seven: the number of spirits
Seven: the number of lamp stands made of gold
Stars and seals, the number of horns
The number of eyes lookin' at you:
Seven... seven
The number of the crowns
The number of plagues
The number of bowls made of gold
Trumpets, how many trumpets
How much thunder, and how many signs?:
Seven... seven
God gave Jesus a revelation
And the Lord sent His angel to John
God gave Jesus a revelation
Back in the first steps of the whole of Christianity They tried to teach us their beliefs Satan is alive through the seven deadly sins The spirit could be willing but the flesh is weak
Pre-Chorus: Just another victim at the gates of hell Deadly sins of pleasure, sons of the human race
Chorus: Seven ways! Seven feelings! Seven... parts of human being!
Seven ways! Chose your way to sin Seven Feelings! Feel it burnin' in Seven! Seven parts of human being
Useless empty words from the lies of the church Cruel abuse of power over faith Practice what you preach hypocritical piece of shit You are the first one who sins
Pre-Chorus: Just another victim at the gates of hell Deadly sins of pleasure, sons of the human race Just another woman Just another man Just another sinner that will burn in flames
Seven ways! Seven feelings! Seven... parts of human being!
Seven ways! Chose your way to sin Seven Feelings! Feel it burnin' in Seven! Seven parts of human being
Greed, Wrath Sloth, Lust Gluttony, Envy and Pride!
Seven ways! Seven feelings! Seven... parts of human being!
I try to be a modern, god- following honesty
I try to be a modern god that lives in dignity
But there is still this aching thorn
Moral mistakes that are inborn
I know them all somehow...
Ohh, what a feeling that I am dealing
I know your seven sins need seven allies
Ohh, what a feeling that I am dealing
Iknow your seven gods need seven more lies
Lies... seven lies
I cannot be a modern god living on bleeding knees
I cannot be, a modern god without divine release
My soul feels so unreal and torn
Human mistakes that are inborn
I know them all somehow...
I know the ruleless rule gods and others
Your heaven knows not what I have been through
A virtue for ages, they began to close the circle
declaring doubt to be a sin
I never wanted what I never needed
Pointing your weakness to confirm my beliefs
Children of Anu
A son born of Tiamat and Abzu
His mother's dissected corpse
Carefully arranged to create the uni
Marduk, patron god of Babylon
Marduk is aging, a city in decline
Anu impregnates the earth, birth seven gods
Decree their destinies to serve as the weapons of Erra
The ruins of a city, the vicious Sebitti
Fear, children of Anu, lay low, living things
Fill their hearts with dragon's venom
Devastation to Marduk and Babylon
Ishum lights the way
Through the darkened city streets
His body illuminates
Ignite like Gerra in the wake of Erra
They decimate, devastate a city in decline
May they lay low living things
The Igigi will glorify your name
Mountain peaks bow their heads in terror
The gods, your fathers, praise your valor
Kings kneel beneath your feet
Countries bring you their tribute, demons flee
Rolling seas, hear and stir up
People are frightened into controlling the noise
Ishum lights the way
Through the darkened city streets
His body illuminates
Ignite like Gerra in the wake of Erra
They decimate, devastate a city in decline
Devastate the city of the gods
Children of Anu, lay low, leaving the things
The Igigi will glorify your name
Strangers a brand new world, taking control
See the sun rise slowly
Breeding inside of you, feeding on souls
Will we ever see another one?
The fear of being lonely
Makes me think we are the chosen ones
Leader's makes followers, swallow the lies
I stare into your eyes, hollow inside
In a maze climbing walls
Leave no stones unturned behind me
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly
Oh, bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly
People might say that you're always sleeping
But you leave with your point of view
Do you think you would it take a disaster
To make people see, I do
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? I'm a funeral pyre
But bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly
What is it something about you can't say?
What is it something about you can't say?
What is it that you can't say?
Bring that Jolly
People might say that you're always sleeping
But you leave with your point of view
Do you think you would it take a disaster
To make people see, I do
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Down to the city underneath
The conscious areas of mind
But I hope you have the time
To realize that you're alive
I know
I know
I know
So people might say that you're always sleeping
But you leave with your point of view
Do you think you would it take a disaster
To make people see, I do
Right at the core, right at the core
Do you leave? No
Right at the core, twisted and raw
Do you leave? No
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
Bring that Jolly Roger on home
I give you I give you I give you I give you I give you my heart
To hold in your folded hands, where it burns
Cold (Frail), cold and frail (Breaks)
It breaks
Frail, in ruins
(It's cold it breaks to ruin, it's cold it breaks in two)
Dying down, crying for, dying for an end to the world,
For I to hide from the times of the war
Missing all the silence of the lambs of Zion
Graze on grace saved by faith
They do not care but lust for justice from God
(It's cold it breaks in two )
Graze on grace saved by faith
They do not care but lust for justice from God
In her [prayers]...?
I tried to love and reduce my cares for the world?
Rose into the soils that you may take
We're gonna(?) it's for what I sing doom to you, to you the beautiful light to my dark reason
And the season is spring and birds sing
Our requiem for a dream
For a dream of paradise lost
Again and again and again and again
Graze on grace saved by faith
Graze on grace saved by faith (Saved by faith, Saved by faith)
Graze on grace (graze on), saved by faith (By the) (they do not care)
graze on grace, saved by the faith (they do not care)
