• 8th Grade - Pencey Prep
• The Threat - Insatanity

Well I've been convicted with and without reason
Tarred and feathered like a piper on a killing spree
And felt the anger of generations
And been the target for the cheap shots of authority
So you think you cut me down to size
Well there's something you should realize
It's gonna take more than a break in the law
To make me smile pretty for the wrecking ball
Won't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat to society
Hard line, you'll see
Once you've made your mark, you've made a threat to society
I wasn't put here to be treated
Like some disease you hoped would go away if left alone
Yeah, you can sweep me under the carpet
But I'll still infect your need to use me as a stepping stone
So you think you cut me down to size
Well there's something you should realize
It's gonna take more than a break in the law
To make me smile pretty for the wrecking ball
Won't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat to society
Hard line, you'll see
Once you've made your mark, you've made a threat to society
Oh, yeah
So you think you cut me down to size
Well there's something you should realize
It's gonna take more than a break in the law
To make me smile pretty for the wrecking ball
Won't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat to society
Hard line, hard line, you'll see
Once you've made your mark, you've made a threat to society
Won't beg, won't beg, won't bleed
The end of sacrifice is a threat, a threat
Hard line, hard line, you'll see

Chorus
I'm from the ninth ward[been there since the day I was born]
From the ninth ward[got us coming up like a storm]
From the ninth ward[niggas better sound the alarm]
Here come the ninth ward,ninth ward hard
[magic]
Bitch,i was born and raised in the ninth ward
So you niggas don't bother me
You can say what you may about the ninth ward
But I bet you won't follow me
'cross that canal where my niggas dwell
You know me well
Cause I sold rocks, upon my block
Till I was hotter than hell
Every nigga down here remember me
Nothin' really changed but my gold teeth
I'm still that same nigga from my flood street
Only difference now is that I'm on my feet
And I don't sell dope no mo'
Don't rob no mo'
Mane a nigga don't plot no mo'
Cause I'm performing in shows
Shakin' off hoes
Smokin' on optimos
It'll be a world war 3 fuck with me
Now my niggas won't let that ride
I'm the only nigga out chere screaming 9th ward
So people tryin' to keep me alive
Everywhere I go they see the nine on my arm
And they swear that I'm in a gang
But nigga this is a warning, I'm 'bout my hands
Like I'm 'bout them motherfucking thangs
I'm trouble starter just like my father
He was raised in the nine
So if you cut my arm it still tated in my mind
No matter millions or which ever the situation might come
I'll never forget you niggas
Never forget where the fuck I'm from
Chorus-2x
[magic]
You know you could take the nigga out the nine
But you can't take the nine out of nigga
Pulling capers is my nature
I'm addicted to making paper
Got my own way of living
Bitch I'm from the c-t-c
Where niggas roam around looking for beef
Killing for free
I take this ward shit to heart
It's tated on my arm
So me and my niggas never part
I keep you niggas in my mind
For every clucker that I serve
For every nigga that I shot
For every tourist that I robbed
To every God damn rock
For every cop that done chased me
To the bitches that hate me
What have you done for me lately
For every neighbor that was peeking at four o'clock in da morn
It never helped to lock me up
You could've left me alone
We learned to improvise on my block
Never had a ball
We played football wit' a concrete rock
Now picture that
I could never forget my mission
I'm a turn the nine into something bigger that yo' vision
Before I'm done the world'll scream

When I saw her it was love at first sight
Her hair was blonde and her jeans were tight
So how about tonight?
She said she didn't know
Too much about me or my dating history
She said no and she's sorry
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
I've waited, oh, so long
And I'm thinking something's wrong
So I decided to one day go and drop by
To feel her up and just say, "Hi"
So how about tonight?
She gave me the same no as before
Don't understand it anymore
Her father showed me the door
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
I've waited oh so long
And I'm thinking something's wrong
Do you think she'll wanna go?
Truthfully no
I hear she's on the rag
What a drag
She said she's grounded
Dude, I doubt it
On top of that she's sick
Bullshit
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
I've waited, oh, so long
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
Why can't you go out with me?
I've waited, oh, so long
I've waited, oh, so long

Caught staring again
Like a deer in the headlights
When I can't move fast enough
I take a hit for the team
Pretty girl is blushing
I can't tell if she's disgusted
Laughter starts to swell
Like someone gets the joke
Bell rings
I make my escape
It helps a little
But doesn't save
Beat down's a common thing
It happens every day
Maybe I'm just strange
Cause I don't change schools
Maybe I like the abuse
Or maybe I'm just like you
Another confrontation
You've got something to prove
Your girl can't tell how tough you are
When you beat me up in the boy's room
I made a big mistake
But I can't help who I like
This may not cost my life
But I am branded forever lame
This was not my decision
You were born with good looks
And a solid right hook
Whining makes no difference
You bruised my eye
It doesn't hurt at all
One day I'll rise above
And you will take a fall
I may be beat today
But I will survive
I'll get up off the ground
Stand tall and fight
My eyes don't hurt at all
I would rather die
Than be your whipping boy
School year's almost over
Summer is one day closer
As God is my witness
I will never be a victim again

Almond eyes stare at me
Beckoning menacingly
Icy pools of blackness
Reflecting my horror
Demons of the cosmos
Malevolent entities
Sinister beings from Elsewhere
They've come for my soul
Hypnotized
Paralyzed
Neutralized
Dominated
Manipulated
Violated
Senses stricken
So surreal...
Is this a dream?
Unable to scream
What is being done to me?
Taken in the dark of night
Aboard a craft of immense proportions
Restrained by beings not of this earth
Thrust upon a table of steel
Blinding lights surround me
Burning my eyes
Slender fingers grasp at me
Rubbery flesh so pale and cold
My body probed, genetic samples taken
Devices implanted under my skin
My memory wiped
Traumatized then returned to my life
A life that will never be the same again
Recollection
Memory slowly returning
Reliving the horror in vivid detail
Doubting my own mind
Can I trust my senses
Is what I've been through real
Or am I just insane
Paranoia rampant
Knowing they could return at any time
Heed this warning, those with reason
For we are running out of time
We'll be powerless to halt their advance
Prepare yourself
The Threat is real
The Threat is here
