if you had one shot one opportunity
to fight for your country will you fight
or will you go down with no honor
oh his palms are sweaty
guns slippen all ready
there nervous but on the surface
they look calm and ready to drop bombs
While looken at the flag
the whole land goes so loud
everybody openthere ears right now to go check it out but
clock’s run out times up over blow
snap back to reality op there goes everybody
they now there whole life is on the line
but it don’t matter
the front line goes to the ground
they now there going so down
everybody is screaming now
so the better go capture this moment
and go kill every man they got
What is it good for ?
Absolutely nothing !
What is it good for ?
Absolutely nothing !
War is something that I despise
For it means destruction of innocent lives
For it means tears in thousands of mothers' eyes
When their sons go out to fight to give their lives
What is it good for ?
Absolutely nothing !
Say it again
What is it good for ?
Absolutely nothing !
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
Friend only to the undertaker
War is the enemy of all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind
Handed down from generation to generation
Induction destruction
Who wants to die
What is it good for ?
Absolutely nothing !
Say it again
What is it good for ?
Absolutely nothing !
War has shattered many young men's dreams
Made them disabled bitter and meanLife is too precious to be fighting wars
each day
War can't give life it can only take it away
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
Friend only to the undertaker
Peace love and understanding
There must be some place for these things today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord there's gotta be a better way
That's better than
What is it good for ?
Absolutely nothing !
Say it again
What is it good for ?
There's a war in the streets tonight
And nobody's really feelin' alright
I got a blunt for a chronic, a juice for my tonic
I know now that I'm feelin' right if it goes down
'Cause my third eye sees the lowdown
And I know it's not my time to go now
'Cause God's got my back in this showdown
So I know we'll be alright
Yeah, Brooks Brothers overcoat, know the ropes, smooth is holdin' those
Briefcases, silk ties, slick as them older folks
Silver fo'-fo', got no,
My chauffer driver just left some of my colleagues smokin' that Cali
Caught a glimpse of myself in the Barney's shop window
Kinda' see my father's features creepin' in a little
Got an office on Broadway, business in Jamaica
Tell my daughter try the hardest so the best schools'll take her
And I'm late to a dite with my wife, I realize
I stopped to shop, had to get her some type surprise
And I'm walkin' through it, chaos is all around me
But God got me, no fear, through the fire pride stop
There's a war in the streets tonight
And all this drama's got me feelin' uptight
I don't know what I'll do if I don't see my boo
'Cause she's standin' on the corner of Linden Boulevard
Holding our baby in her baby in her arms
So hold on, your daddy's in sight
Yeah, Nine-four, Destiny opens her eyes
For the first time, praise God, baby mom's cryin'
Planned to be a strong black family
But we both were too young, too strung, too much flashin'
New come, I caught verbal assassin runnin' with
Nothin' but the worst type, worst fight
But we brought my baby home the first night
Cursed like sailors, burst out the crib
Ragin' in my new car bought from entertainment
Champaign and gainin' clout fast, whiplash
Did this bitch just pass in the club pugged up, stupid ass
Grabbed her by the pony tail, "never disrespect me"
I'm a street vet, regret the sex, but not Desi
Moved back to your grandma, I'm single, the land's mine
She keeps the Benz, I'm all in the streets again
Squeezin' the pen, released again, chart toppers,
Hard-bottoms blessed the feet, now less baby mom's problems
New woman, she's great, this a different world,
Checkin' out my wife's chemistry with my little girl
It's so amazin' playin', life is so crazy
I've grown up the thankful for lessons God gave me
There's a war in the streets tonight
And nobody's really feelin' alright
I got a blunt for a chronic, a juice for my tonic
I know now that I'm feelin' right if it goes down
'Cause my third eye sees the lowdown
And I know it's not my time to go now
'Cause God's got my back in this showdown
Tell of the birth
Tell how war appeared on earth
Musicians with gongs
Permeate the autobahns
Foetus of disgusting breath
And she split the egg
Cast a spell and war was born
Come follow me
Out of the obscurity
Pilgrims in songs
Swamp the empty aerodrome
Kalashnikovs but no houses
Women at the double, march
No food for the spouses
They wait for the US drop
Russians sit back and laugh While war casts her gory locks
Over the deserted docks
She casts her gory locks
Over the deserted docks
She cast a spell
Split an egg and war was born
And pillage hopes with gusto
Even though they have no nerve
And she does just look on
And war does what she has to
War does what she has to
People get what they deserve
Now get the fuck up off me nigga..
As I, struggle to keep my balance and composure
I'm 'posed ta, propose a toast to players on every coast-a
The lyrical roller coaster, mind-bender
'Stead of watchin these sucker MC's
I'm seein just how they lyin to the general population
Don't be patient, get up and stand up for your life
Don't you agree or understand we lost some rights at 1-1-9?
Come dumb, come young, come blind unwind confined
to the situation, we facin, cause in time, tick tick boom
Tick, boom.. tick, tick-boom
Tick, boom.. tick, tick-boom
Tick, boom.. tick, tick-boom
Tick, boom.. tick, tick-boom
When will we all, awake up out this dream
Come here and smell the Folgers, the soldiers are human beings
Man actin as if he was the supreme bein
Clockin the souls of men out like he was G-O-D and
W-A-Rrah, there'll be no tomorrow but sorrow
and horror will follow the hollow hearts battle for dollars
Politicians, modern day magicians
Physicians of death, more health care for poor health
Who makin us ill, they makin us kill
That's makin me spill my guts (chill Big, lay in the cut)
For what? I refuse to sit in the backseat and get handled
Like I do nuttin all day but sit around watch the Cartoon Channel
I rap about, the Presidential election and the scandal
that followed, and we all watched the nation, as it swallowed
and chalked it up, basically America you got FUCKED
The media shucked and jived now we stuck - damn!
Operation Anaconda - ask yourself
was it full of bleeps and blunders, did they ever find Osama?
And why in the fuck did Daniel Pearl have to pay the price
for his life and his wife plead twice?
See Al-Amin got life and Fred got dead, Hampton
To dampen the dream of all the Panthers
They got they answer for ransom
As we read together, as we dream together
Count your blessings whenever you feel that things won't be no better
But it got to, you gave me this microphone so I must rock you
Your brainwaves, airwaves, energized and SHOCKED you
Y'all got me, well I got y'all, long as I know y'all listenin
I'ma always bring food for thought to the table in the kitchen
[Chorus]
This, means, WAR!
Wanna bring it to, bring it to me? (uhh)
Wanna bring it to me, we in the D (uhh)
You, we got you
Spot him before he spots you
WAR! Wanna bring it to, bring it to me (uhh)
Wanna bring it to me, we in the D (uhh)
You, we got you
Spot him before he spots youuuu!
[Royce Da 5'9"]
Yo, yo, I roll with the wildest crew in the game
Niggaz that'll put two in your frame
with any one of the guns we carry to cock
Aim, only to use on one of you bums, too scary to box
Gimme mines and mines only, you know
Nigga you only a hole which shows in the tone of your flow
The iller the team the iller the regime
Peelin from the scene in trucks, we gettin cream or what?
Robbery's the word over extortion
Force niggaz to fork over a fortune
Takin you cats into a world you probably ain't never even been before
Before we can even talk
There's money to be made, niggaz wanna get paid
I ain't playin wit y'all niggaz, I'm serious
Try to top the flow or stop the dough
You could get shot fo' sho', your whole block could go
I'm takin the pistol to make it official
Hollow heads make him an issue, makin 'em hit you
Feel the force of a real nigga in this
My niggaz'll tear the club up
[Chorus]
[Royce Da 5'9"]
Yo, yo, yo - we attack the last nigga that blast
Take him for cash; if he broke, we kickin his ass
Simple as that, either the fifth or the mac
cripple the cat, you too if you think you could rap
Who fuckin with me? Gimme one name
One nigga with versatility like this
Ability like this, it's like this
With me, my flow, you never know what you might get
Prime suspect, and I ain't hit you with half of the rhyme just yet
Niggaz wonderin why I be callin myself the King
Shh, I'm the King
Who you ever seen that's doin it like me?
What new nigga done came that'll spit shit
that'll sit in your brain, yeah I'm doin my thing
A lotta you niggaz'll probably be intimidated by it
When my shit gets played, niggaz riot
Shit gets sprayed; but you can't change that
I was doin that in sixth grade
You can take it to the streets with us
All out war, fuck it, everybody heat could bust
[Chorus]
[Royce Da 5'9"]
Yo, yo, my attitude done changed since I became a king
I'm a stranger being, rearrangin things
Now that I can afford a Range and rings
I sit and think, I remember when it became a dream
Now I'm livin in it, takin the game
to where it's never even been visited, what's my name?
Royce 5'9" (who?) hottest nigga in rap
How I'm figurin that? I'm iller than y'all
Plus all my niggaz be more realer than y'all
More crooks and way more killers than y'all
Hot with it with goals, tryin to die with over two hundred songs
Ready to go like 'Pac did it
Niggaz is out for the cheese
There can only be one King, it's either me or about to be me
We bringin heat with us
Ready to shoot, y'all niggaz better recruit, you ain't deep enough
(feat. Trife Da God)
[Intro: sample]
War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
[Trife Da God]
Uh, welcome to Jam-rock
Where niggaz get popped, buried in sandlots
New York niggaz, triple they money hitting the grand spot
West Coast bang for they colors and they demand blocks
Stuffed in niggaz barbeque grillings, sizzling hamhocks
Can't forget my mid west niggaz out in the Chi
St. Louis and Tennessee, where them killas is sure to ride
Shout out to my Ohio players, clocking that paper
To all them fly pimps in Detroit, rocking them gators
Riding around, with the top down, heat in the lap
Stay balling, with the plush leather seats in the back
Down in Houston, sidding sideways, chucking the deuce
Popping them bottles, getting blasted over cups of that juice
Dizzy stukes, niggaz blowin' off Bobby, like Whitney Houst'
Grey goose with a touch of grapefruit, indeed, it get me loose
We need to call a truce, for all my fallen troops
Stop the warring, let's do more recording
Sit back and count this loot
[Chorus: Trife Da God (sample)]
(War in the east) To all them dealers in the tri-state
(War in the west) For all them niggaz out west, raising the crime rate
(War up north) To all them killas up north, locked in the bing
(war down south) For everybody down south doing they thing, come on
(War in the east) To all my greasy east niggaz getting that clock right
(War in the west) To all my jackets catching them fools at the stop lights
(War up north) To all the heavy bidders repping in jail
(War down south) To them votes, shouting the dirty south, electing that meal
[Trife Da God]
You can find me in the 'west', like Kanye, blowing on bombai
With the killas on Crenshaw, serving up entrees
Or lounging with the homies from Northstar, popping out of sportscars
Niggaz wilding out in the sports bar
No matter where I go, I'm still repping New York, pa
You know we get it cracking when we up in the courtyard
Sipping on forties of Ale, pouring liquor out
For all the O.G.'s and shorties in jail
And when I'm out in the Carolinas, blessing that marijuana
Down in New Orleans, my niggaz wrestling anacondas
Clapping them tools in Baton Rouge, provoking drama
Getting it crunk in Atlanta, searching for baby mommas
Philly and D.C., V.A. to B-More in a G4
I-95, making them detours
South Beach, Memorial weekend hitting the sea shore
And every other city we go, I'm promoting T-Dore
What life has taught me
I would like to share with
Those who want to learn...
Until the philosophy which hold one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war
That until there are no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war
That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be persued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war
And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
that hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war
War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war
And until that day, the African continent
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory
Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
Until the philosophy,
Which holds one race superior
And another inferior,
Is finally and permanently
Discredited and abandoned,
Everywhere is war.
Until there is no longer first class
Or second class citizens of any nation.
Until the color of a man's skin,
Is of no more significance then
The color of his eyes,
I've got to say "war".
That until the basic human rights,
Are equally guaranteed to all,
Without regard to race,
I'll say "war"
Until that day the dream of lasting peace,
World-citizenship and the rule of
International morality will remain
Just a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never obtained.
And everywhere is war.
Until the ignoble and unhappy regime
Which holds all of us through,
Child-abuse, yeah, child-abuse yeah,
Sub-human bondage has been toppled,
Utterly destroyed,
Everywhere is war.
War in the east,
War in the west,
War up north,
War down south,
There is war,
And the rumors of war.
Until that day,
There is no continent,
Which will know peace.
Children, children.
Fight!
We find it necessary.
We know we will win.
We have confidence in the victory
Of good over evil
Of good over evil
Of good over evil
Fight!
Dark is the light
The man you fight
With all your prayers, incantations
Runnin' away
A trivial day
Of judgement and deliverance
To whom was sold
This bounty soul
A Gentile or a priest?
Who victored over
The Seljuks
When the holy land was taken
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
Was it the riches, of the land?
Powers of bright darkness
That led the noble, to the east
To fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
Yeah, we will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
Yeah, we will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We must call upon our bright darkness
Beliefs, they're the bullets of the wicked
One was written on the sword
For you must enter a room to destroy it
Destroy it, destroy it
No international security
No call of the righteous man
Needs a reason to kill a man
History teaches us so
The reason he must attain
Must be approved by his God
His child, partisan brother of war
Of war, we don't speak anymore
Of war, we don't speak anymore
Of war, we don't speak anymore
Of war, we don't speak anymore
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
Yeah, we will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
Yeah, we will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens
The bells of war doth chime tonight
and the heavens shake with fear
The earth commot the sky is in flames
the battle is ever near
Troops of Hell tonight they storm
The walls they so despise
Heaven's gates are closing in
The night is filled with cries
War, War, War
A crack of thunder, a smell of death
the wind of mayhem blows
Heaven in its final breath
and God lose all control
Prayers for mercy cries for help
won't stop the blasphemy
Our troops emerge the sacred throne
Until The Philosophy Which Holds One Race
Superior And Another Inferior
Everywhere Is War
War In The East, War In The West
War Up North, War Down South
War
Until The Color Of A Man's Skin
Is No More Significant
Than The Colour Of His Eyes
I Got To Say There'll Be (no?) War
War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War
That Until The Basic Human Rights Are Equally
Guaranteed To All, Without Regard To Race
There'll Be A WarWar In The East, War In The West
War Up North, War Down South
War
War
War
War
War, War, War, War
War In The East (It's A War)
War In The West (Now Everywhere Is War)
War Up North (It's A War)
War Down South (Now Everywhere Is War)
War In The East, War In The West
War Up North, War Down South
War, War (We Find It Necessary)
War, War
War, War (We Find It Necessary)
War, War
War (And We Know We Shall Win)
(And We Are Confident)
War In Africa or America,
North America Or Brazil
Or Australia, It Doesn't Matter.
(We're The Same)

And Suddenly There Was War
We Didn't Remember It
A Long Time Forgotten

And The Mothers They Screamed
For Revenge And Reprisals
For Another War
And Suddenly And Suddenly

With Spoiling And Death
And You Fight Alone
If There's Another War
Whole Life Is War
And Whole Life Is Pain
And You Will Fight Alone
In Your Personal War
This Is War
War
One by one they all fall down
Try to catch them when they hit the ground
I'm off to face my future
I'm off to face the war
How long must I stay here without you?
How long must I stay here alone?
I will fight for something that I do believe in
But I believe there's nothing here worth fighting for
The war makes no mistakes
Your heart is going to break
But I'll be there to catch you when you fall
(When you fall)
I'm off to face the reaper
(I'm off to face the reaper)
I'm off to face the dead
(I'm off to face the dead)
How long must I stay here with these falling shells around me?
How long must I stay here in hell?
I will fight for something that I do believe in
But I believe there's nothing here worth fighting for
The war makes no mistakes
Your heart is going to break
But I'll be there to catch you when you fall
The war makes no mistakes
Yeah, your heart is going to break
But I'll be there to catch you when you fall
(When you fall)
One by one they all fall down
Try to catch them when they hit the ground
One by one they all fall down
Try to catch them when they hit the ground
The war makes no mistakes
Your heart is going to break
But I'll be there to catch you when you fall
The war makes no mistakes
Your heart is going to break
But I'll be there to catch you when you fall
(But I'll be there to catch you when you fall)
But I'll be there to catch you when you fall
(When you fall)
One by one they all fall down
Try to catch them when they hit the ground
One by one they all fall down
[Gee-Banga (Ced Gee):]
Uhh, this real New York shit right here man
You already know
Kool Keith, Gee-Banga let's go
(Ced Gee, Ultra, uhh)
Uhh, uhh, yo, yo
I wanted keys in my collection, so I loaded bullets in my weapon
Put on my gear, gun in my hand, prepare for this 187
See I'm a hustler, not a murderer
But if you get on my fuckin nerves then I'm gon' have to murder ya
Badder than stores that's from the Saudia{?}
Pull out my tec, gunnin yout neck execution style and just slaughter ya
Cookin them cracks that you be coughin up
Really don't give a fuck about family or who you the son of daughter of
You gon' really make me have to torture ya
But that's my second name in the hood, you can call me the extortion
G to the Danger is the enforcer of, G.K.B.
and gangster shit that the streets could ever offer ya
I always been less fortunate; so I fuck bitches
Party and drink and blow that sticky to get up off of it
When in reality you the talk of it
So don't be surprised me cock back and be demandin you take off your shit
[Chorus: Gee-Banga]
This is war, son you know we always packin that 4
And we puttin bullets straight through your door
Plus we stayin on point cause we don't wanna fall
If you get caught slippin you'll get killed for sure - brrrap!
This is war, son you know we always packin that 4
And we puttin bullets straight through your door
Plus we stayin on point cause we don't wanna fall
If you get caught slippin you'll get killed for sure
[Kool Keith:]
I'm international, worldwide traveller beyond that block shit
You hear about it, y'all can't avoid it when I drop shit
It's like takin a fat-ass sumo wrestler out with a dropkick
You get they rap careers started, my job is stop shit
Piss on anything y'all spit
Door #1, I can play Bob, Barker
Your bitch can't bid here
Better stay with the cock she picked, with sauce on her lip boss
I fuck up your lip gloss
Get your handicap games out nigga, cause you gonna limp across
Like a slow man in the street
Y'all niggaz put up your umbrellas up
Nobody wanna fuck with my sunstroke heat
That's on the strength~! After you leave, the car wash
I shit on top of your Cherokee Jeep
When I knock on the door
Niggaz play like they not home, cause they scared to speak!
Sleepin under beds, wrapped up in fuckin sheets!
Sega Genesah nigga we finish a nigga
[Chorus]
[Ced Gee:]
Yeah, check it
Dawg you cross me, you might as well take your own life
See I ain't takin no prisoners son, I'm even murderin your wife
Slaughterin all your kids, yeah, I'm that trife
Then sit down listen to your rep and give a thorough sermon
about the wrath of Christ
Drink some hot cocoa, sleep well that night
Then wake up in the mornin, and write some Ultra elevation
Do a show in Italy dawg, then listen to a standin ovation
Make a couple of songs in Haitian
Spanish and Japanese, bee-da-dong-yong
I'm great son, make no mistake son
You sleep on me all you want, and I bet you they find yo' ass in a lake son
[Chorus]
[Outro:]
This is war...
This is war...
Dust in the sky - Another bullet for the head of a lie
Where is the sun? - It is so far away
The sun is gone - Only you gotta stay
Don't mind if their words are true
Just do what they tell you to
Your will is gone - It is so far away
Their will be done - You've got nothing to say
You would believe if you only could see
But there's too much fucking dust on your [Image] t
War - You're just a victim of war
Dust in your eye - And now the bullet's in the head of the lie
Dust in your eye - And now the bullet's in the head of the lie
Where is your pride? - It is so far away
There's only night and you still have to stay
Don't mind if their story's true
Just do what they want you to
Where is your god? - It is so far away
There was a lot - Now there's nothing to pray
You would resist if you only could see
But there's too much fucking dust on your [Image] t
War - You're just a victim of war
Don't open your eyes - Don't care about lies
Just shut your mouth - You're just a victim of war
Keep holding your gun - Keep holding your toungue
Just shut you brain - You're just a victim of war
Don't care about pain - Don't care about shame
Just shut your mind - You're just a victim of war
Keep - Trying to sleep - Keep counting the sheep
Don't cry, open up your eyes and know
There's someone else out there that feels this way
I'm singing to you
Cause I know what you've been through and now
It's not so long ago I felt the same
Like soldiers, march on
If we can make it through tonight we'll see the sun
March on, march on
And I remember summer nights alone
The fireflies the only thing we own
Yeah, all we had were dreams of California
And I remember winters were so cold
Hunger was the only thing we know
And rock'n'roll dreamin' was what saved us
Like soldiers, march on
If we can make it through tonight we'll see the sun
March on, march on
Till we see the sun, march on, till we see the sun
Through the good times, through the bad times
Through the long days, through the hard nights
Keep on, till we see the sun
Like soldiers, march on
If we can make it through tonight we'll see the sun
March on, march on
Like soldiers, march on
If we can make it through tonight we'll see the sun
March on, march on
Even when there's no one there for you march on
Even when the days are long for you march on
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
War, it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker
Friend only to the undertaker
War means tears
To thousands of mothers' eyes
When their sons go out to fight
And their daughters lose their lives in
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Tell me war
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
War, it's an enemy of all mankind
The news of war
It breaks my heart and close my mind
War has laid waste to a whole generation
Induction then destruction
And who wants to die in a
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Tell me war
What is it good for?
Ask yourself this question
Oh peace, love and understanding
Tell me, is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord, Lord, Lord there's got to be a better way
Say war
What is it good for?
Tell me, tell me, tell me
What is it good for?
What is it good for?
What is it good for?
Ohh, can you tell me now?
There's got to be a better way
This means war!!
Don't you want your freedom
Do you not daydream
See how we split the atom
and bring them to their fucking knees
The policeman cannot stop me now
I smoke the best pot in town
I fuck a slut
I come up in her mouth
I do whatever the fuck I want
I'm an American
We run this shit
You're all gay
We got guns and shit
You're all lame
No you don't understand
This is not a game
This is motherfuckin judgment day
This is war
Don't you want your freedom...
My magnum let's you know that I care
I spank ass - bite necks - pull hair
I fuck you in the kitchen
Doggy on the stairs
I do whatever the fuck I want
I'm an American
We run this
You're all gay
We got bombs - happy meals and grenades
No you don't understand
This is not a game
This is motherfuckin judgment day
This is war
Don't you want your freedom...
Put em up...
Take it outside
Can we take it outside
Uncle Sam don't take no shit
I wake up - I start the day dreamin
I blaze up - I wait for the weekend
I go to the club
Get fucked up
Get my dick sucked
I don't give a fuck
I'm an American
We run this shit
You're all gay
We got bombs and shit
You're all lame
No you don't understand
This is not a game
Until the philosophy
that holds one
race superior
and another inferior
is finally and
permanently discredited
and abandoned
there will be...
War!
In the east
War in the west
War!
Up north
and in the south
Prepare for war!
Until the color of a man's skin
is no more significant
than the color of his eye
there will be war...
there will be war...
War!
In the east
War in the west
War!
Up north
And in the south
Prepare for war!
Prepare for war!
Prepare for war!
And until that day
the world will not know peace
we will fight if necessary
And win this war...
And win this war...
War is a global economic phenomenon
Ain't a batch of guns on where, hellfire
Spittin', run up everything they hittin'
Some do they job to dodge the barrage
As sleek projectiles never stay bound
Fire bite invades the night with light
Loud, fighter planes shout shell rain
When they shot to kill cops on the terrain
And leave any brain that may remain stained
You god damn right this war goin' too far
Socialists think they converse with the stars
Wars found, my find the beauty in the stars
I level with death even beneath radar
I level with death even beneath radar
I level with death and she got pretty eyes
Nobody told me death was so damn fine
I go to sleep with that girl on my mind
Wake up in a sea, I wanna fire in line
Grab my heat, then it's get down time
One day I'ma make that girl all mine
But for now I'm a soldier abidin' my time
Writin' my rhyme behind enemy lines
Palestine, Kosovo, Cashmere
No different than the avenues right here
An increase in the murder rate each year
Paramilitary unit keep the streets clear
Curtains up on the theatre of warfare
Dramatic politics nightly preformed here
Worldwide from Colombia to Columbine
Don holders keep ya dollar signs on the line
"I don't want to rule or conquer anyone
I should like to help everyone if possible
Jew, gentile, black man, white
We all want to help one another
Human beings are like that
We want to live by each other's happiness
Not by each other's misery
In this world, there's room for everyone
And the good earth is rich
And can provide for everyone a way of life"
Fuck that
You know the drill
Fix ya face
I'ma hustle off the hill
Go get my money man
Go get my money man
See every hunter need to kill
Go get my money man
I'm old school from off the hill
Go get my money man
Go get my money man
I give a fuck what I do
Go get my money man
Go get my money man
Go get that money man
Go get my money man
Go get that money man
Gimme my money man
Gimme my money
Fuck you, pay me
Fuck you, pay me
Fuck you, pay me
Fuck you, pay me
Fuck you, pay me
Fuck you, pay me
Fuck you, pay me
Fuck you, pay me
(1:15)
(Instrumental)
Oh, come crush me now
Don't leave
No one has won this war
This time
No, don't sleep tonight
I'm hurt and ready for fire
Don't leave me up
Alarmed and ready to die
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Please, I'm almost done
Don't retreat
I've loaded my gun
With blood, with...
Hear the dust roll over the floor
Why must you sleep?
Come crush me now
I'm armed
And ready to die
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, fight me, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
You look so peaceful when you sleep
Beautifully
It's such an easy way to choose
You loose
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, fight me, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
You look so peaceful when you sleep
Beautifully
It's such an easy way to choose
You loose
Oh, come crush me now
Don't leave
No one has won this war
This time
No, don't sleep tonight
I'm hurt and ready for fire
Don't leave me up
Alarmed and ready to die
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Please, I'm almost done
Don't you treat
I've loaded my gun
With love, with...
Hear the dust roll over the floor
Why must you sleep?
Come crush me now
I'm armed
And ready to die
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, fight me, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
You look so peaceful when you sleep
Beautifully
It's such an easy way to choose
You loose
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, fight me, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
You look so peaceful when you sleep
Beautifully
It's such an easy way to choose
I would march across the desert to defeat my enemy
And I would lie here in the trenches with your picture next to me
And when I told you it's forever, then it's how its gonna be
Don't, won't let him just take the place of me (No..)
Does he really know you like I know you, all the little things?
Does he really love you, like I love you, how can he compete?
If he makes me fight for you, die for you, would he do the same?
This is turning into way more than a game..
Now it feels like soldiers in a war and none of us are backing down
And I will show you victory is mine before we leave this battleground
Cause he don't wanna leave, and I don't wanna go
And I know just how this battle goes
He don't wanna leave and I don't wanna fight this kind of war
You know he's not the man you think he is; he's hiding all his flaws
So tell me what's the point of fighting? Because we'll all end up with scars
But girl if that's what I must go through, then I'm not prepared to lose
Cause I've already bled so much for you (No..)
Does he really know you like I know you, all the little things?
Does he really love you, like I love you, how can he compete?
If he makes me fight for you, I die for you, would he do the same?
Baby this is turning into way more than a game..
Baby cause we're soldiers in a war and none of us are backing down
And I will show you victory is mine before we leave this battleground
Cause he don't wanna leave, and I don't wanna go
And I know just how this battle goes
He don't wanna leave and I don't wanna fight this kind of war (No, No..)
Getting kind of sick of this battle
Wish I could take it back to when I had you
I'm always thinking that I can have you, just let him have you
It's getting kinda hard to convince you
After all the shit that we've been through
Why would you let all this happen?
You gotta choice to make it stop
It's already going too far..
Girl we're soldiers in a war and none of us are backing down
And I will show you victory is mine before we leave this battleground
Cause he don't wanna leave, and I don't wanna go
And I know just how this battle goes
He don't wanna leave and I don't wanna fight this kind of war
Cause he don't wanna leave, and I don't wanna go
And I know just how this battle goes
We never asked for war
Nor in the deepest darkest corners of our minds
Can we contemplate its eternal horror?
Carnage incomparable, human squander
It's neither sweet nor fitting
Fighting; a senseless call to arms
Through lifeless eyes I can still see
The bombers flying over
Bombing the path to peace
Who condones this blood lust?
The skin of my face sticks to the cold concrete
My blood siphoning from my body by fellow man
I can still feel the shrapnel searing limbs
I can still breath but the gas burns my lungs
I can still speak, asking, but there is no answer
I can still smell life's sweet aroma
But now I can taste death
I can hear God calling
But ceremony is short
Greater men? Greater wars? Were they scarred
Scared, lonely as I for lost cause?
When fear is spent, I feel the numbness that makes me
long for cold caress
It's over, cruel finality that disallows family
Love, useless lamenting lost chances
Welcome my lord, farewell my love

Got my team outside, and we all be waitin

Everytime we step through that door to remind you

Not no here-today-gone-tonight niggas...
It's really on
Phonte, Big Pooh on the track - now that's WAR!
[Rapper Big Pooh:]
I got the, heart of the lion, eye of the tiger
20/20 vision watchin shit transpire
Nonperishable, my records don't expire
I'm that blue flame if we speakin on fires
"Wo" like Mya, burn like niacin
Feelin froggy, well try me then
I'm a a cold motherfucker with a leaky pen
Don't be confused 'cause you seen me grin
Take two to the chin, I been writin
Rap word recitin, Bogard-in on niggaz
Like Poobie is a Viking
You ain't gotta like 'em, but I got the juice
You thirsty niggaz better off with the Sprite then
Marquee light and fuckers stay bitin
Do some other shit and you do it just like 'em
Your flows like he, your shows like he
Now you out tryna bag hoes like me? !
Got no I.D., better be yourself!
You wantin to be niggaz ain't good for your health

Stop tryna be like this-nigga that-nigga
Won't you just DO YOU, nigga?
I'm a do me, I'm a let my nigga DJ Flash do his thing
(Phonte, Big Pooh on the track - now that's WAR!)
[DJ Flash cuts and scratches]
[Chuck D.:] "WAR! "
(Phonte, Big Pooh on the track - now that's WAR!)
[Phonte:]
Uh, yo, fuck whoever I fin', jsut talkin 'bout war

And every track I bless, you gonna feel me on it
[Rapper Big Pooh:]
Tay, this is what they need, right? (yeah)

[Phonte:]

You don't wanna make that fatal-four, pah

Big Pooh and Phonte on the track - now that's WAR!
[Outro: Phonte]

Hulk Hogan, we comin fo' YOU, NIGGA!
(Big Pooh and Phonte on the track - now that's WAR!)
[DJ Flash cuts and scratches]
[Chuck D.:] "WAR! "
War! War!
There's a war goin' on outside, no man is safe from [repeated & scratched])
(War is a continuation of politics by other means, the purpose of war is to
insert a political agenda...)
Karma's a double-edged sword [repeated & scratched]
What do I really want in this stage of my life
I'd like a beautiful shelby that'll praise me right
I'll praise her back though, I'm not a selfish bastard
Struggle with big shit, but got this elf shit mastered
Time's are strange, I claim to be the man
Like I know G-d can understand his ingenius plan
But I'm just a simple Joe, livin low, avoiding conflict
Cookin food for stereos, so feed your CD-rom this
True, I've struggled, spent days in mud puddles
Shut up shit-talkers and made wanna-be thugs huddle
The world ain't all money, suckas and violence
Quit smoke from the fire-lips, protect your iris
Shit's hard, especially hits to scar the soul
That's why niggaz drink and stress for cigars to roll
It's like the farther we go, we cover less distance
Life's a freak and it'll fuck you and all that you want in this diss dance
Cause we really fragle but thinkin' we tough
Get bowed in the heat of the battle but then we get cut
Buts back on the scene of the saddle with our heads down
Wishin' a meal and G-d would multiply this bread now
You know I, come to the fork in the world so many times
But I just keep choosin' wrong (choosin' wrong)
And movin' on (karma's a double edged-sword)
You know I, need to choose the correct path, change the aftermath
Before she sinks my song
Cause it may not be long (we ain't promised tomorrow)
I try to help out my fellow man sometimes get yellow-hands
Scared by darkness, searching for beauty like Cinderella's man
But I'm no Prince Charming I form my share a folk
Hanging my own self, bad decisions prepare the rope
Strangled by pride, suffocated by lies
Showin' my pearly whites to disguise my prize
Missin' my sister, asking the Lord why did she die
Using her death to instill strength inside of vibes
I don't want old things I done to boomerang
Feelin' low-low, for sho Deacon pursued by shame
It get rough, and ain't enough to just think positive
Cause when nobody's helping me out then its hard to give
And go and robbin' shit, runnin' game on hoes
An un-tame negro, runnin' cain for dough
Acting insane, famous for bringing pain to foes
Knowing that shit'll come back and it'll rain for sho
But I'm still out, rain-slickers in the house
Fame stickers in my mouth, cain sniffers on the couch
Walking the world and the crowds, shiftin' through trash
Not knowin' I'm feelin' like it cause I'm livin too fast
You know I, come to the fork in the world so many times
But I just keep choosin' wrong
And movin' on (karma's a double edged-sword)
You know I, need to choose the correct path, change the aftermath
Before she sinks my song
Cause it may not be long (karma's a double edged-sword)
Yeah! yeah! Right back niccas huh?!
Yeah that bounce we need, ya know
Marcy where we at huh? Right here
Let me hear some new shit, yeah niggaz
Just Blaze you a muhfucker wit these beats boy
Let me hold it down though, yo
Let the hood know, that Bleek ain't changed
Anywhere in the world, I don't tuck the chain
And I walk like, yeah I need the 'cane/caine
But dawg that's the shotty, trust me I ain't playing
War, I'm ready for it to go there
Anybody that know me know I love when it go there
Dawg, and yeah that's wassup
Four dimes, all mine nigga that's wassup
Yeah, wifey wanna curse me out
You won't get me cause the chain's like it's workin out
But E's - still wit the Roc-A-Fella gang hoe
Whole crew got cheese like mozzarella mayne
Top come off, top stay on, whatever
Got rid of the five I don't like the leathers niggas!
Six is better, more room and there's more wood to cover my interior
This is war! Enough of them words we wan't war!
You throw a couple of shots, we throw more!
You gettin that money, we got more!
We got more nigga, this is war!
I warned her, man should not fear man
If you violate man then you die by hand
And it should be fine, behanded that man
That man I am and you don't understand
But I hear the talking like "Bleek where you been?"
It's unfortunate I'm in beef again huh
Niggaz is rappin and clappin I'm still laughin
Sat back in my hood and tried to live average
But - you still want me to bang at em
Stack lil paper, send a lil gang at em
But I see you wanna stop my chill
Trips to oddy earth, meetings wit McNeil
Or - round table meeting wit Hov
You want me in the hood still over that stove
Nigga, I got soldiers in Droves
It ain't nothing to a boss we'll go in your clothes nigga
This is - not for children, not for lames
Only for real niggaz that can feel what I'm saying
If it's - too blatant then it's not for you
You do a hit, throw up later, it's not for you
So - just quit you bitch, making me sick
You never pimped you only friendly wit chicks and
I've been away for a minute
Jay beat up the drum now they whinin like women
I'm right back nicca, where you at nicca?
Keep the mac nigga, spit it like that nigga
And I tried to chill, even though
I got to spit everyday like I ain't signed a deal nigga!
Mama's still in the hood, work steel in defense
I got a flow like I'm still on the bench nigga
Got a delivery like Sunday's paper
A blitzkrieg too war where energies of evil are
summoned. Avenging!!! This past life enflames,
Horrid the dreams. Desolating age, reveled in
dismay they preach. Hypocritical~ Scintillation’s
fade away... Where the souls stir in a cauldron.
The Black-Brothers who own you. Knell you servant.
Knell you slave. Bend thou knee: Obey!
Ancient invocations of the night,
Appearing years before Christ!!!
W.A.R.~Warriors of our nocturnal grotto.
Swords of the valiant: Ancient command.
Slayer of Death. Last-Man, Stands!
Honor-n-pride, sacred & pure.
Pulsation’s blood; One warrior race.
Desolating age, reveled in dismay you preach.
Hypocritical~ Scintillation's fade away...
Ashen in the ancient way, learned the lessons sorcery.
Brought back evil insight, older than time itself.
Mons Philosophorum~Shadows fill the air:
Where your life decimates.
See your sorrow grip inside from beyond my grave.
Legions of the night savagely divine; Transforming.
Warriors of the Apocalyptic Revenge.
Warriors of the Apocalyptic Revenge.
Avail to us at night where killing of the mind
derives. As this world of your religion,
Turning symbols into hours.
Ravaged in the witching of an eye,
Waiting on the fields ~Elysium.
Appearing w/ the dead who walk,
Shadows from a fiery grave reside: Midnight.
A pentagram engraved in stone
Where the candles flicker. Evil-Winds.
Enochian keys of phrase,
Spiritual-Echo: Suffocates.
Pain! Meek! Scourge! Conquering.
Reign! Satan! Annihilate.
Until the philosophy which holds one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war
That until there is no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war
That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war
And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
That hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war
War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war
And until that day, the African continent
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory
Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
This is war like you ain't seen
This winter's long, it's cold and mean
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)
It's war tonight, it's death and life
It's the kind of war you ain't never seen ever,
Soldiers getting riot homie, heads get severed
Death toll is crazy like nothing on record,
Civilians ain't safe, man, the troops might get ya
Came from the high cuz them guys gon' catch up
They never get tired, never let up
They fired up, wired up to put you on the stretcher
But is the good side tough enough? you betcha.
Yeah you got bad guys, you know they a problem
Trying to overthrow the king, yep what we call em
No life from the dark nights, no Gotham
This ain't fake death, no possum, can anybody stop them?
Tombstones everywhere, dead bodies rotting
Big glock popping, bodies still dropping
But I ain't gon' cry though, for just to get swallowed
The Father's sent his son, and the troops gon' follow
This is war like you ain't seen
This winter's long, it's cold and mean
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)
It's war tonight, it's death and life
The son came down to the wasteland
We in a death-filled mess, he'll win, no leaving
No rest til (desk heal?), the fight ain't even
And death won't be left still breathing (Get em)
The son's on the front line crossing their borders
Invading enemy land but they can't floor them
A good troop will graze him, and they ain't even force em
But God used that sin to support him
They captured the King next thing them chops rang out
General is down, the troops are like, "We out!"
The life-giver dies and the other side celebrates
But they don't know that Hell is fate, the death they'll face
They never safe if he's a beast who'd the featherweight
Just when they thought they took him down he would elevate
Death could never take pride in that blow
Cuz the King beat death when he died and he rose
This is war like you ain't seen
This winter's long, it's cold and mean
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)
It's war tonight, it's death and life
It really might seem like the war's still going
People still dying, sin is still potent
The devil's still tempting, and evil ain't slowing
Just wait until the trumpet gets blowing
The General is coming with keys in his hands
The death and hate is they'll, freeze where they stand
Cuz see they've been defeated, please understand
If they don't wanna see him, bro, the King is the man
He's a man of war, a beast on the battlefield
Obliterating all the evil forces that'll kill
Where's your sting death? Oh, you don't got it bro
Where's your victory? Oh, you've been swallowed whole
But when he's back, ain't no fighting Jehovah,
He'll toss you in a lake of burning fire and sulfur
He's a titan, a soldier who will wipe away tears and our fears
And all the pain and death will be over
This is war on sin and death
The dark will take it's final breath
[When life and death go to battle
Ain't no telling what'll happen] (x3)
Odin I am the son of Bor
The Norns sung my fare
Ravens beside me evermore
In a world to be made
But you who are you
The Giants of Ice
Ymir you think you rule
Ten thousands won't suffice
It's a war of thousand years
Between courage and your fears
It's a war an endless fight
Between darkness and light
It's a war of thousand years
There is life and endless tears
It's war where giants fall
Gods shall stand tall
Odin I am standing strong
Amidst bloodshed's agony
Vili and Ve hold our long
Oh my brothers next to me
Where is Ymir he must die
Then his breed will be gone
Fall upon him hear his cry
Scorched by wrath
Razed through divinity
Blood was to be spilled
Guts were to be thrown
Blessed, sacred wars
Insanity through gods
Alone in the total darkness
You will wander in the army of fools
Divinity
Drove you insane
Subjective truth
Burned your mind
Peaceful villages wish they were not born
Under the blade of the privileged swords
The ruthless masses
Glow through the faith and glory
Their fearless loath
Will begin to grow an oath
Blessed by the wise-men
Summoning their powers
Soldiers of fortune show how they slayed
Divinity
Drove to berserk
Imbecile sheep
Burned the earth
Blessed, sacred wars
Insanity through gods
Alone in the total darkness
(*talking*)
This organization was built on me
What I put together, that no man come in between
I am the foundation, and I will weather the storm
You don't wanna go to, you don't wanna go to
You don't wanna go to war with us
You don't wanna go to, you don't wanna go to
What...
[Chorus]
You don't wanna go to war with us
My niggas be too dangerous
You don't wanna go to war with these
Soldier boys we bout it bout it, so nigga please whooa
You don't wanna go to war with us
My niggas be too dangerous
You don't wanna go to war with these
You hating my click, well nigga please whooa
[Magic]
See I'm sick dog, and I rip your lip off, if I get pissed off
Or ripped off uh-huh, that's when the shit starts
I'm vicious, I didn't get all of my shots
When I bite I lock, and I won't let loose until the bones pop
And I watch you, until your vital signs stop
And walk off in the night, with no worries fuck the cops
This shit is real dog, play with us and watch how many pop up
In the junk yard scattered round, bodies all chopped up
If I flip out, I take a quick flight up out the country
Better ask somebody, Mr. Magic he acts a donkey
I spit shit that make the average, not stand a chance
And I keep spitting until the top dogs, know I'm the man
I'm running you back to the streets, go and hustle the corners
This time I'm playing for keeps, so I think you wouldn't wanna
Four c-notes turn to dimes, and dimes turn to ones
Your pockets is getting young son, so
[Chorus]
[Magic]
Close and personal with the sorrow
Connected with the, crooked to fire your hips
Whole nation regretting, that their punishment raised killas
You forget about having this, the game not fair
No trusting in one another, when the love not there
I promise thug life, niggas control this track
Since you niggas twisted the game, we just twisting it back
I'm related to hurting, hurting by material praise
Settle for less, and let the stress make us forget about better days
Have mercy, these demons wouldn't guide us right
We come if nobody's trying to make it, to the guiding light
I'm a victim of living, pay me what you owe and hate
And let me die, with a smiling face
Just me and my people thugging forever, we no longer bleed no mo'
And who so ever approach us, don't wan breathe no mo'
Give a blessing to every nigga, that held us down
My people issue in hell right now
[Chorus]
[Magic]
I'm a ridiculous lyricist, you hear the fire in my vocals
You can't keep up, and oh well got me some more sales
25 years old, but I'm young and I'm still learning
This shit just pours outta me, keep the c.d.s burning
Fuck gold, I'm trying to sell a couple of mill
If this ain't my year, then somebody is getting killed
Excuse my anger, but I feel like I'm being cheated
I won't be denied, I refuse to be defeated
If we broke we jacking, anything got cash
If I can't make it in this rap, y'all better kill my ass
Cause I click off knock your dick off, and leave you stuck out
If I let you live, then pray nigga cause you been lucked out
Ahh I abuse you, and the shadow behind you
Beat you both to death, where they mama she couldn't find you
And them people that signed you, got to charge it to the game
Still the same, ain't a thang changed
This is War
I Lie Wounded on Wintery Ground
With Hundred of Corpses around
Many Wounded Crawl Helplessly around
On the Blood Red Snowy Ground
Cries of the (ha, ha) Suffering Sound
Cries for Help to All Their Dear Moms
Many Hours of Music
Many Drops of Blood
Many Shiverings and Now I Am Dead
And Still We Must Never Give up
Until the philosophy which hold one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war
That until there are no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war
That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be persued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war
And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
that hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war
War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war
And until that day, the African continent
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory
Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
Do you remember standing on a broken field
White crippled wings beating the sky
The harbingers of war with their nature revealed
And our chances flowing by
If I can let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field
When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me a reason to try
Turn the page I need to see something new
For now my innocence is torn
We cannot linger on this stunted view
Like rabid dogs of war
I will let the memory heal
I'll remember you with me on that field
When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
And we fought to believe the impossible
When I thought that I fought this war alone
We were one with our destinies entwined
When I thought that we fought without a cause
You gave me the reason why
With no one wearing their real face
It's a whiteout of emotion
And I've only got my brittle bones
To break the fall
When the love in letters fade
It's like moving in slow motion
And we're already too late if we arrive at all
And then we're caught up in the arms race
An involuntary addiction
And we're shedding every value our mothers taught
So will you please show me your real face
Draw the line in the horizon
'Cos I only need you name
To call the reasons why I fought
It's in the story it's in today's life
It can make you die
Only for glory and the people die
What's the reason' Why'
It can make you die
What's the reason' Why'
Why can't we make this war
Stop with no other blood
No, no more agony
No more deadly family
Ooh... ooh...
[Solo]
Put all your rage against the war
United the energy is more, more, more, more
War's just another name for Hell
We haven't learnt what story tells, tells, tells, tells
War, war, war, war
Chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos
[II Act: The prophecy]
Desperation and agony war will bring to us
The silence of the human kind will never change this world
And guns, bombs and cannonballs are still destroying our life
The prophecy of Mother Earth reveals we have to die
[III Act: Sounds of victory]
But if we're strong our justice will be done
The power of people will rise
We'll ride the light, the sun will be our guide
The crowd now is ready to fight
Ooh... ooh...
It's not a game, we mustn't feel the pain
Our last chance to win is now
The peace will reign, together we'll put out the flames
The Salvation Army goes on
[Iriscience]
War is life and war is death
War's a vaccum but war's a breath
And war is a war that can never be won
But war is the way Johnny got his gun
War, it brings students out in a rally
War's something that I see too much in Cali
War with black, and war with brown
And war with everyone as the sound resounds
in war, more than you bargained for
War is blinding and wars ROAR
War is getting picked off storming the shore
And war is how the rich conrol the poor
War is the boom of impending doom
War fills history books and fills tombs
War is my lyrics when I duel with drums
War is the shape of things to come
War is suffering, war is bluffing
What is it good for, absolutely nothing!
+War+ is one of my favorite groups
And war is why they turn y'all kids to troops
War, between my zodiac twin
One want to do right, one want to sin
War is a loop that does not end
Cause war is often between kin and friend
Everywhere is war and rumors of war
I rap battle hymns cause tour is a war
Some war with God and some with the beast
Yeah, DJ Clue, Desert Storm
New Nas, it's called War
Squinted-eye gangsta, live in a skyscraper
Platinum Patron drinker, stackin' that grown paper
God pushed me out His ***
The Devil swallowed me up, I burnt a hole in his guts
Fell down into a Louis Vuitton truck with stash boxes
And *** in it sayin' blast Nas ***
Drove down harm's way, puffin' that bombay
QB thug tattoo on my arm say
Names of my fam, so I'ma read you a scripture
And commandments to get you richer
Bandannas, hammers, MAC's and nina's
With the mismatched Pumas like Shan in Queensbridge
All white shell toes, that's that Queens thing
Brightland, ice wine, call that weed sling
Know where G slang
And the *** with bomb *** that slurp on me and my comrades
Got a new contract, come on, black
*** y'all just gettin' up on, I'm beyond that
No time for crumbs, I really don't see them
They just started livin', just started havin' threesomes
Just started havin' girls who like them
That's why I got married 'cause my world ain't like them
So why they keep tellin' those stories?
***, y'all square, ***, this is my year, ***
[Incomprehensible]
Professional, Pt. 3, you see it
a song about ignorance and arrogance
try and understand,
i don't like this any more than you, a man's gotta do what he has to do
i'll be home before she turns two, i live only for you
i'm going away, my love don't cry no more.
i'm going to set things right overseas, i'm going to war
i'm so far away from home, i don't want to die alone
as my blood escapes my world grows dim, a rich man has made me die for him
Lets Do This!
Faking Falls

[Chorus]
War (nigga), war (nigga), war (nigga), war (nigga)
We'll take your boys to war (nigga), war (nigga), war (nigga)
In these streets we raw (nigga), raw (nigga), raw (nigga)
We'll take your boys to war (nigga), war (nigga), war (nigga)
[H.A.W.K]
War, bullet holes in your car
Right cross to the jaw, like the southpaw
I'm bound to leave a scar, Dead End outlaw
Coldest you ever saw, rough, rugged and raw
A step above the law, but I don't gangbang
I pull out that thang, and I let bullets rain
I pack a straight aim, you fin to scream in pain
Two slugs to the brain, po' mo' in your brain
If it's war that you want, then it's war that you'll get
Talk shit you hit, and get your wig split
I hate to admit, you just a hypocrite
A slick son of a bitch, that sits and rides dick
(bitch), one false move and you bleed
(bitch), nigga you way out your league
(bitch), I got a family to feed
And don't look for me to bless you, if you sleeze
[Chorus]
[Big Pokey]
When it's war, I can go scar for scar
If a nigga turn his cheek, go jaw for jaw
Kick doors, break through bars, me I'm a murdera
Raw as me, this crock bull'll murk your street
Cop killas, make em bleed when they hit the fizeet
They gon find you kissing the street, missing your teeth
Some of these cats is playing, softball
Put that bat down, swing at a golf ball
I can get raw dog, when niggas stud up
Don't get your block knocked off, wig cut up
Kids come up missing, when it's bad blood
Somebody gon find you fishing, full of mad slugs
You'll duck that ass my heat, body bagged with tagged they feet
Gon be sad, you shouldn't of fucked with me
You know me, always keep my guards up
Cause when it's war, niggas get scarred up
[Chorus]
[H.A.W.K]
I said it I meant it, I don't have to ask the lieutenant
The super intendant, or better yet the U.S. Senate
The rules I'm bending, my soldas are definitely winning
I'm a tank like No Limit, and it ain't no gimmick
I crush the opposition, won't make no proposition
The modest of competition, and murk the politician
Y'all niggas is wishing, and falling out of position
You low on ammunition, and starting that ass kissing
AK must spray, my bullets they ricochet
They scrape your vertebrae, and have you screaming (mayday)
The General In Charge, of espi-onage
Critiques in camouflage, to catch you off guard
You're just a sarge, and your truth is fraud
I'll take away your strife, cause you cats is broads
My actions are flagrant, the rules of engagement
Are those you ain't since, lying on the pavement, it's
Like Pack of Wolves,
We hunted our preys at Nights
Why they put you to the holy ground,
When you died?
I must get you out of there
Or your soul can not be saved
WAR - I am coming to take you back.
WAR - Nothing can stop me now.
I kill, destroy, hunt those people,
Who did this to you
HIDE if you can, but you do it in vain
I'll crasp our soul and take you down,
Eternal torment in burning Flames
We were together as one,
By doing this to you
They have done it to me.
I will see that day,
When I am gonna make them pay,
What they did to you is
What I will do to them
CHARGE!
[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Y'all don't wanna war wit us, in this steel we trust
When there's beef best believe we bust
We can take it how you want it cuz we thuggin over here
Pure, uncut, raw butter over here
[Yukon]
Yo you see the game getting better this year
They done put P with Afficial something better in here
I'm tryin to take em where they ain't been
Somethin out they price range
Ain't in they budget, you know they can't spend
Where we at, in a league of our own
And I know this chick now I'm tryin to meet at my home
So they can see the goods I got
About how there's one in every neighborhood
Strangers feel like they're tourin blocks
You know it ain't too hard to tell
That every member of my street team ain't too far from jail
And if he down then his book's healthy
You see, I don't only talk about the cars and the cribs, I look wealthy
Beef ain't a problem with us now
And nigga you can get as loud as you want, we hollow in the pound
And let em think they playin with that
And imma show em with one squeeze, how 16's spray in ya back
[Chorus]
[Desperado]
I write my rhymes in the kitchen cuz my balls is cookin
Used to fuck average bitches now the stars is looking
Niggas scared and they shook, I can tell by their face
Cuz we hard to figure out, like the lock to a safe
I go to court the judge dropping the case
No blood as soon as I kill a nigga then I'm moppin the place
And I'm quick to pop the 8, that's just how I was raised
Desperado, name spread like the shells in the gauge
And age the major reason why they can't believe it
But we all quarterbacks and y'all gotta receive it
But they don't catch it till a year later
Minds kill, niggas lost so they gotta catch up like Hossfield
Your team don't squeeze, guess what, mines will
Or stop till there's a million a show like Seinfield
Plus we got the skill for this, any proven time
But this burner to your head, make you lose your mind nigga
[Chorus]
[S-Flames]
I can feel the girls on my nuts, bout those Rolls and drops
Now it's hard to get her off like a Heiniken top
I got ten young boys on the block with them quarters
Nowadays I'm washin my car with spring water
Why you just try to send your man to merc me
You can't get rid of Flames, nickname is herpes
I'm a man, you a man, won't you act like one
See me face to face chump, watch me beat you like my son
You fucked up comin strong with the GOAT
Getting killed with no money now you dead broke
If the Liberty Bell rung it wouldn't stop this fight
Get buck like Bugsy and his men go hard all night
Nigga you heard my bars, you know I got a bad mouth
Furnished and customized, you know I got a bad house
Game over, Afficial in here
I live inside of a shape, my house the Hollywood Square nigga
[Chorus]
[Curren$y]
Come thru in a white Viper with the rally stripes
A trunk hold 6 bodies if you stack em right
Same hits over the celly, sit back and write
They only found half of ya so your casket lite
Now your body real easy to carry
These hoes talk to much, me and my A.K.s finna get married
2 shots to the grill, put a hole in ya smile
With a banana clip longer than the O.J. trial
Now let me find out you tried to put a stop to my sales
Put a hole through ya head like the top of a whale
If a nigga get knocked I can post my own bail
A million dollars in cash let me outta this cell
Man y'all niggas just beginners
I got enough bricks to rebuild the whole World Trade Center
Old school Regals, D's, and gold spinners
Everyday I got a different mink for the whole winter
[Chorus]

psychedelic soul act since 1969, had co-written, "War" a strident anti-war
protest song. It was recorded for the Temps' Psychedelic Shack LP released in
1970, and in spite of growing demand for a single release, Motown didn't want
the Temps to take such an aggressive stance. So Whitfield recut "War," with
Edwin Starr, and the resulting version was arguably the most incendiary song
Motown ever released. Starr's rendition makes the Temptations' version seem
sedate.]
[2] Originally recorded by the Temptations in 1970 See [1] above. Other
covers include, Edwin Starr, BB Band, Boyz II Men, Frankie Goes to Hollywood,
Joan Osborne and Bruce Springstein.]
[3] The Temptations' version of "War," features Paul Williams (tenor) and
Dennis Edwards (tenor) on lead vocals, and is much less intense than Edwin
Starr's hit version that we're more familiar with. Williams and Edwards
deliver the song's anti-war, pro-peace message over a stripped-down
instrumental track, with Melvin Franklin (bass) chanting a repeated boot
camp-like, "hup, two, three, four," in the background during the verses.
Other back up vocals are by Eddie Kendricks (tenor) and Otis Williams
I'm going into this world,
I'm walking on the pain,
I'm going into this old black dream;
All the things and all the thoughts,
Everything is pressing in my head
And I'm dreaming a new world
Without the war...
I'm going into this world,
I'm walking on the blood,
I'm going into this old black dream;
All the time and all the space,
Everything is pressing in my head
And I'm dreaming a new world
Without the war...
WAR AND DEATH,
WAR AND DEATH,
AND OUR DREAMS ARE PAPER-SHEETS,
...AND OUR DREAMS ARE DREAMS.
The Big Man now is here,
And you are very good,
But your face is a fat dust-pan;
Powerful man, oh powerful man,
Maybe I am an old child,
Okay, yeah
We are renegades, this means W.A.R.
16's bust to break unjust laws
Overthrow regimes in the name of the cause
Renegades never slaves, this means W.A.R.
100% uncut raw
Fuck limited freedom, nigga, we want more
The machine is corrupted down to the core
Rebel army, muthafucka, this means W.A.R.
I got a middle finger for mass media, mute the news
'Cause when the gun draws, received a million views
Which gives me the right to break the rules
Say, "Fuck radio" if the people can't pick and choose
While B.E.T. gets screwed by Viacom
The new revolutionary-ish I am on
It's not brush fire rap, it's 5 alarm
Motivational music after I am gone
My inner visions, mysticism call me Mr. Wisdom
They wanna turn the globe into a prison
And being sick is better than being dead
'Cause when you're sick and in bed, you're indebted to meds
Cloned chickens walkin' around without heads
The food is contaminated, the water got lead in it
Population control, make the babies sick
RFID chips, RU-486
This is a war against consciousness
Controlling your soul, sort of a physiological dictatorship
And we are on the front line
Guilty as charged if intellect is a crime
Say, we are renegades, this means W.A.R.
16's bust to break unjust laws
Overthrow regimes in the name of the cause
Renegades never slaves, this means W.A.R.
100% uncut raw
Fuck limited freedom, nigga, we want more
The machine is corrupted down to the core
Rebel army, muthafucka, this means W.A.R.
Alhamdulillah, it's a spiritual calling
My ode to Neda, we are still mourning
It's not a documentary about global warming
This is lunar explosions, a global warning
For when the moon bleeds, you can't tell night from morning
Cities submerged underwater, post New Orleans
It's not your average rap recording
This is insane lieutenant's taking aim at Mormons
While the American brain remains dead and dormant
My stimuli supplied by my endorphins
The mind's eye greater than pi and broadband
I break on through to the other side without doorman
It's not The Doors, man
I am equipped with a better memory chip than dolphins
With more keys to open more doors than 4 foremen
To executive floors where they're walkin' on all fours, man
K-9's standin' upright amongst you
Aided by swine spreadin' the H1N1 flu
On some rabies shit, RU-486
Population control make the babies sick
This is a war against consciousness
Controlling your soul, sort of a physiological dictatorship
And I am on the front line
(Come on)
Guilty as charged if intellect is a crime
Say we are renegades, this means W.A.R.
16's bust to break unjust laws
Overthrow regimes in the name of the cause
Renegades never slaves, this means W.A.R.

May your dad rest well down in hell tonight
I never liked him much, but he gave me a bite of his hot dog
When we went golfing
In San Clemente
With Richard Nixon
But I was bored
So I prayed to the Lord
Ha, give me a war
'Cause I'm so bored
And I want more
In a real fucking war
Well I'm bored with Iran and I'm bored with Iraq
Egypt and Israel and Yassir Arafat
The Falklands was cool but it was too damn short
I want a real war 'cause I built a bitchin' fort
May your sister rest well in her bed tonight
I never liked her much, but she made me feel good last Christmas
In your mom's station wagon
Behind 7-11
She was just fourteen
But I was bored
So I prayed to the Lord
Ha, give me a war
'Cause I'm so bored
And I want more
In a real fucking war
Well I'm bored with the Contras and Colonel Quadhafi
The Ayatollah's dead, but he made really great coffee
With my rifle in my arms I feel really swell
I wanna join the army and kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill
May your uncle rest well in his cell tonight
I never liked him much but he took me down to Tijuana
We drank tequila
And watched your mom dance
At the Bambi club
But I was bored
So I prayed to the Lord
Ha, give me a war
'Cause I'm so bored
And I want more
Like a thief that stole in the night
Turning everything so right
Hiding to catch my dreams
Its not what it seems
Like the wind you've dried my tears.
My cries no one hears.
But you, *I know you do*.
Like a thorn in my side,
Twisted inside.
You're burning and turning,
Your view with no learning.
Twisting my words,
Knowing it hurts me...to be.
Like the rain you fit in the night,
Blurring my sight.
Trying to break me, to hurt and mistake me.
But I know I have my will,
And I'm standing still.
I'll be the concrete,
that you have to beat `till it hurts.
Like a thorn in my side,
Twisted inside.
You're burning and turning,
Your view with no learning.
Twisting my words,
[Intro: Hell Rell]

A camel is an ounce, a kufi is a brick
Tell him I need 5 kufis, and meet me on the strip
Yeah I know "Stafalla", but I'm tryna cop some cars
Run up in the club that's popping and cop the bar

I have found the power,
in the blaze of my destiny
I have found the light, my sword is ready for war
in the darkest realm,
where pure steel always prevails
where bloody war is the only art
Shall we rule? Forevermore!
Raise our swords to the sky,
we have found the power
we will dominate, we are ready for war
Dark lord of chaos, we'll spread your blood
on the battlefield
gods of brutality, our blades
will bring pure justice
omens of glory, your bright light we embrace
lightnings of steel will declare our victory in war
Supreme art of war I call you let me dominate
give me the strength of pure hatred, now my
sword is thirsty for blood
and in the dark realm of chaos
justice will prevail
Until the philosophy that holds one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently
Discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is where
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Until there will no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
And until the color of a mans skin
Is of no more significance than the color of his eyes
Theres a war
And until the basic human rights
Guaranteed to all without regard to race
Theres a war
Everywhere is war
War in the east
War in the west
War up north
War down south
Rumors of war
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Until that day
The dream of lasting peace
World citizenship
And the rule of international morality
Will remain but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued, and never attained
Everywhere is war
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Rumors of a war
Down here at the pawn shop
Down here at the pawn shop
Down here at the pawn shop
Down here at the pawn shop
The microphone explode, shattering the molds
Ya eighter drop the hits like de la o or get the
Fuck off the commode
With the sure shot, sure to make the bodies drop
Drop an dont copy yo, dont call this a co-opt
Terror rains drenchin, quenchin the thirst of the power downs
The fire sided fist-a-gon
The rotten sore on the face of mother earth gets bigger
The triggers cold empty your purse
They rally round the family
With a pocket full of shells
Rally round the family
With a pocket full of shells
Rally round the family
With a pocket full of shells
Rally round the family
With a pocket full of shells
Weapons not food, not homes, not shoes
Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal
I, walk the corner to the rubble that used to be a library
Line up to the mind cemetery now
What we dont know keep the contracts alive and moving
They dont gotta burn the books they just remove them
While arms warehouses fill as quick as the cells
Rally round the family pockets full of shells
Rally round the family
Pocket full of shells
Rally round the family
With a pocket full of shells
Rally round the family
With a pocket full of shells
Rally round the family

Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed
Looking at the sky, starry-eyed
Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed
Crying in the night, teary-eyed
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Wonder when I'll find paradise
Somewhere there's a home sweet and nice
Wonder if I'll find happiness
Never give it up now I guess
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
------ long instrumental break ------
There's no need to search anywhere
Happiness is here, have your share
If you know you're loved, be secure
Paradise is love to be sure
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

I was once I was strolling one very hot summer's day
When I thought I laid myself down to rest
In a big field of tall grass
I laid there in the sun and felt it carressing my face
As I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my mind
The fact that me an overfed long haired leaping gnome
Should be the star of a hollywood movie, hmmm
But there I was
I was taken to a place
The hall of the mountain kings
I stood high by the mountain tops
Naked to the world
In front of
Every kind of girl
There was long one's, tall ones, short ones, brown ones,
Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones
Out of the middle, came a lady
She whispered in my ear
Something crazy
She said,
Chorus x4
Spill the wine and take that pearl
I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back
As she disappeared, but she soon returned
In her hand was a bottle of wine
In the other a glass
She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass
And raised it to her lips
And just before she drank it, she said
Take the wine take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Spill the wine, take that pearl
Take that pearl, yeah!
It's on girl, all you gotta do is spill that wine
Spill the wine, let me fell, let me feel hot, yeah! Yeah!
Spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine
Spill the wine, spill the wine, spill the wine,
Now you see that the grass is green,Didn't you know that my love was true why did you go, You hurt me so, why did you go, you hurt me so, didn't you know.
I love you so...
I got a girl and i call her so, And you know that i love her so, She went away,She broke my heart,Didn't you know i loved you so, Didn't you know..
Now you see that the grass is green, and you knew that my love was true why did you go, you hurt me so, why did you go and hurt me so, didn't you know, i loved you so..
I got a girl and i call her so, cause i know that she loved me so,she went away,(she broke my heart)and broke my heart,(she went away)didn't you know,I love you so, i love you so, didn't you know..

Get on down, get on down, get on down
Riding round town with all the windows down
Eight track playing all your favorite sounds
The rhythm of the bongos fill the park
The street musicians trying to get a start
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Stretched out on a blanket in the sand
Kids of all ages digging Disneyland
Rapping on the C B radio in your van
We'll give a big ten four to the truckin' man
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Young boys playin' stick ball in the street
Fire hydrants help to beat the heat
Old man feeding pigeons in the square
Nighttime finds young lovers walkin' there, oh yeah
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
In Atlantic City or out in Malibu
Or anywhere between, I am telling you
When you feel those balmy breezes on your face
Summer time is the best time any place, oh yeah
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
'Cause it's summer, oh yeah, summer time is here, yes it is
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, yes it is, my time of year
Oh, 'cause it's summer, summer time is here
Slippin' into darkness
Take my mind beyond the dreams
I was slippin' into darkness
Take my mind beyond the dreams
Where I talk to my brother, oh, oh, oh
Who never said their name
Slippin' into darkness
When I heard my mother say
I was slippin' into darkness
When I heard my mother say
(Hey, what'd she say? What'd she say?)
You been slippin' into darkness, oh, oh, oh
I dreamed of a place
That is always on my mind
(On my mind)
It's where the blue waters run
Down the mountain-side to the sea
(Hey)
In Mazatlan
In Mazatlan
In Mazatlan
In Mazatlan
You've never seen such a sight
Who makes the day of the night
The wonders your eyes behold
In little Mexico so
Your joy you cannot control
They call
They call me a gypsy man
They call me a gypsy man
They call me a gypsy man
They call me a gypsy man
They call me a gypsy man
'Cause I don't stay in one place too long
I'm searchin' for a brand new world
To make and call my home
I gotta find a friend, a nice sharp baby
I gotta find a friend, a nice sharp baby
To make my home ohh, yeah
To make my home
'Cause I'm a gypsy man
Yes, I'm a gypsy man

As I sit in my four cornered room
As I sit in my four cornered room
I knew we met each other this morning for a reason
Thinking, talking, we've worked out our problems
Looked like we should have better days in front
Just because we took our time to think and talk
For a much better understanding
As I sit in my four cornered room
As I sit in my four cornered room
As I sit in my four cornered room
As I sit in my four cornered room
As we sit here in my four cornered room
I can feel all y'all's deepest emotions
I know I can't talk right
But I'm feeling something in the depths of my soul
I can understand where you're coming from
Y'all coming from my four cornered room
I met a little Spanish girl on the fifth of May
A pretty senorita, get down, she lived in east L.A.
Down in 155, the party's alive, there was magic in the air
Feet were flapping, pumping and tapping, dancing everywhere
And the people say,
Cinco de Mayo (X 4)
Instrumental interlude
Home boy down the street in his low riding limousine
It's the funkiest thing on wheels that I've ever seen
So we jumped inside, took a ride, the guys from the neighborhood
Slipped downtown where the people get down, and it made me feel so good
Everybody sang,
Cinco de Mayo (X 4)
Instrumental interlude
From the park we heard the music, there were people all around
Some were singing, some were dancing, we could boogie down
Everybody on the street was jammin' and the band was going strong
So we drank a little wine, we had a good time, and we partied all night long
And the people sang,
Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
He Drink whiskey poncho drink and wine
He drink whiskey poncho drink and wine
We met down on the border of Rio Grande
We met down on the border of Rio Grande
Eat the salted peanuts out the can
Eat the salted peanuts out the can
The outlaws had us pinned down at the border
The outlaws had us pinned down at the border
Cisco came in blasting, drinking, bored
Cisco came in blasting, drinking, bored Ahe Yaye Yaye
They rode in the sunset, horse was made of steel
They rode in the sunset, horse was made of steel
Chased a gringo last night through a field
Chased a gringo last night through a field
Cisco Kid was a friend of mine, Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine
Cisco Kid was a friend of mine, Cisco kid was a friend of mine
Ahe Yaye Yaye
Music is what we like to play
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All day, all day, all day, all day, all day
To soothe your soul, yeah, yeah
Down at the beach or a party in town
Making love or just riding around
To soothe your mind, yeah
Music is what we like to play
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All day, all day, all day, all day, all day
To soothe your soul, yeah, yeah
Let's have a picnic go to the park

Rolling in the grass till long after dark
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War is something that I despise
For it means destruction of innocent lives
For it means tears in thousands of mothers' eyes
When their sons go out to fight to give their lives
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
War is the enemy of all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind
Handed down from generation to generation
Induction destruction
Who wants to die
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War has shattered many young men's dreams
Made them disabled bitter and meanLife is too precious to be fighting wars
each day
War can't give life it can only take it away
War
It's nothing but a heartbreaker
War
Friend only to the undertaker
Peace love and understanding
There must be some place for these things today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord there's gotta be a better way
That's better than
War
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again
War
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
All my friends know the lowrider
The lowrider is a little higher
Lowrider drives a little slower
Lowrider is a real goer
Lowrider knows every street yeah!
Lowrider is the one to meet yeah!
Lowrider don't use no gas now
Lowrider don't drive to fast
Take a little trip
Take a little trip
Take a little trip and see
Take a little trip
Take a little trip
Take a little trip with me
Everything around me seems so empty
I think I can still hear other people`s voices in there
Shouting at me in madness "It`s Time For You To Leave…"
Denying to accept the beliefs of another age
I lost my mentality and I ended up in there
Being aware of the spirit`s second dimension
Where sense, insanity and justice is invisible
The gun you hold may give me the creeps
Perhaps I`ll be happy if you use it
So as to prove once again that I`m still sick
(chorus)
Eventually I know
Wrong exists And covers what is Right
But I can`t judge them with daring
Don`t hesitate to point the gun at me, I`m not afraid of the truth
But at least you must hold it tight if you feel strong enough to use it
My ever loneliness might be the reason of loosing the sensible way
But I was never in a real need of communication
In a world where Wrong And Right makes no sense at all…
Are you upset of looking me?
Are you afraid as I come near you?
What are you waiting for? Shoot me!
Be careful cause I`m loosing patience
Don`t let me come closer cause
As we heard the threatening sirens
Warned against the bombing raid
We cowered in a shelter
They left us to our fate
Bombenhagel - Bombenhagel
Bombenhagel - Bombenhagel
Stukas dived to bring is mortal dreed
Bombs fell down as rain
Explosions shook the ground
Debris is buried the dead again
Bombenhagel - Bombenhagel
Bombenhagel - Bombenhagel
Waiting for the painful decision
Senseless action of Germans on and on
Only suicides delivered is from suffering
What does the future have in store
Bombenhagel - Bombenhagel
Keep on thinking about tomorrow
Keep on pleading your future
Thinking of battle that nights bring (?)
(?) your another way (?) will die
There's no future
nor there's any way to hide
There's no way we will (?)
There's no way your heaven in mercy
Look in our eyes and know there's no way
to (?)
There's no future
nor there's any way to hide
You keep on saying you will win
You keep on hoping that you will be free
Thinking about those stupid (?)
Save your nun (?) to die
There's no future
nor there's any way to hide
There's no way (?)
There's no way escaping
Look in my pace and you'll find out
That we are reapers of Satan
There's no future
nor there's any way to hide
We are the reapers of Satan
Oooooohh(yeah)
My life was just a lonely thing
I never used to laugh or sing
You gave me hope and you made me strong
And your the reason for this song
Angel.
[Chorus]
You are here, you are mine
Sweet and lovely angel
Please be near, please be kind
Oh I love you Angel.
(Mmm hmm, Ohhh oh ohhhh)
I was blind I could not see
Till you came down to rescue me
Your god's creation and that's no lie
Cause I see heaven in your eyes
[Chorus]
Angel...
[Instrumental]
I was blind I could not see
Till you came down to rescue me
Your god's creation and that's no lie
Cause I see heaven in your eyes
[Chorus]
(Ohhhh, Angel)
Oh Angel!

I've been searching most everywhere
To find someone with whom I could compare
And now I've found her she's right there
You know you know
Desert honey Lotus Blossom
Hungry man has always got some time
To take away from you
Gentle hearts we've known too few
All in love coolin out
Peace of mind must come about
So rest your racing aching brain
Stone blind mirror looks insane
Almost coming almost gone
Always caught inside a song
So stop and sip my cactus syrup
'Fore you climb into the stirrup
And ride, in stride, survive in time
Empty arms forever running
Sunny lady left too long
Desert honey almost coming
Lotus Blossom almost gone
You know ooohhhhh
MMM mmm mmm
C'mon party a little bit wit' me
Bill collectors credit checkers knockin' on my door
Seem to ask the same ol' questions
Can I pay some more?
Money comes and money goes
You got to get what you can get
Stock market is up at an all time high
But I'm crusin with the national debt
Food stamps give us somethin' to eat
And the welfare pays the rent
If time is money and money is time
I haven't made a red cent
'Cause I'm livin' in the red
Yes, I'm livin' in the red
Well I'm livin' in the USA
And I ain't got a dime to pay
Hey yaaa
(I'm livin' in the red)
Yes, I'm livin' in the red
(I'm livin' in the red)
Yes, I'm playin' in the red
Yes' I'm lovin' in the red
Alright
Solo & Jive
'Cause I'm livin' in the USA
And I ain't got a dime to pay
Hey hey hey

Yea we jumpin' in the red
Yea we livin' in the red
Yea we dancin' in the red
Yea we singin' in the red
Yea we lovin' in the red
Well bless my soul I can't find a job
(I'm livin' in the red)
Well bless my sould I can't pay my car note
(I'm livin' in the red)
Ol' bless my soul I can't pay my taxes

Ol' bless my soul I can't pay my water bill
(I'm livin' in the red)
Ol' bless my would I can't pay my alimony
(I'm livin' in the red)
Alright
It was a California day
And we came to play
Riding smooth and heavy with the touch
Waiting on the car
Taking time on my digital watch
Old folks and children
Stand and looking
At the sight right in front of their eyes
All they could say, truly amazed
Was "whose Cadillac was that floating by?"
They all say
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Everywhere we go
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Up and down the street
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Everyone we meet
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Yeah, yeah, yeah woo-hoo
Ah yeah
Number one from coast to coast
Everybody they all know our name
From the neighborhood to Hollywood
Yeah we're moving in the diamond lane
Low to the ground
Heavy with sound
Everything from Blues to Rock
We stop in at Joe's
Got some burgers to go
And cruised all around the block
And the people say
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Everywhere we go
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Up and down the street
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Everyone we meet
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
My, my, my
Lord
A major intersection
Holding steady checking
Traffic moving heavy nine to five
Red light started blinking
We just started singing
As they pulled us over slowly to the side
They told us to freeze
And checked our IDs
And we gave 'em all tickets to the show
Then we said our goodbyes
Exchanging high fives
And everybody wanted to know
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Up and down the street
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Everyone we meet
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
We saw them scratching their heads
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
And everybody said
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
They got the music loud
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
And stirring up the crowd
"Whose Cadillac is that?"
Everywhere we go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everywhere we go it's the same old question
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
He drink whiskey, Poncho drink the wine
He drink whiskey, Poncho drink the wine
We met down on the fort of Rio Grande
We met down on the fort of Rio Grande
Eat the salted peanuts out of can
Eat the salted peanuts out the can
The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort
The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort
Cisco came in blastin', drinkin' port
Cisco came in blastin', drinkin' port
They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel
They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel
Chased a gringo last night through a field
Chased a gringo last night through a field
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine
Oh, I was born in a dump
My mama died, daddy got drunk
He left me here to die or grow
In the middle of Tobacco Road
I grew up in a rusty shack
And all I owned was hangin' on my back
The Lord knows how I loathe
This place called, Tobacco Road
But it's home, it's really my home
The only life I'll ever know
But the Lord knows I loathe
Tobacco Road
I'm gonna leave and get a job
With the help and the grace of God
I save my money, get rich I know
Bring it back to Tobacco Road
Well, well, well
Gonna bring me some dynamite, gonna bring me a crane
Got to blow you up, got to tear you down, start all over again
I'll rebuild the town, I'll be proud to show
And keep the name of Tobacco Road
But it's home, it's home
The only life that I've ever known
I despise you 'cause you're filthy
But I love you because you're my home
Tobacco Road, Tobacco Road
Tobacco Road, Tobacco Road
Say you're dirty and filthy
I despise, I despise you 'cause you're filthy
But I love you because you're my home
Tobacco Road, road
Talkin' about a dirty, funky, filthy low down place
Slowly we walk together
Joining hands in little hands
We turned and kissed one another
We have a working plan
We have all the seasons to live by
Is there any reason to cry
When you've had a love for a long time
It's so hard to say good bye
Just try to think about giving
There's a fortune in your little hand
Then you'll receive more pleasures
To add to your working plan
We have a working plan
Go, tell it to your lover
Don't be the one who turned and ran.
You can move ahead a little farther
Then you'll have a working plan
We have a working plan
Slowly we walk together
Joining hands in little hands
We turned and kissed one another
We have a working plan
When you see a girl walking down the street,
You can bet she's fine, you can bet she's sweet,
Down in East L.A.,
Down in East L.A.
Not too far from the city lights,
Latin music fills the night,
Down in East L.A.,
Down in East L.A.
Cholos? hang in the neighborhood,
Standing on the corner feeling good,
Down in East L.A.,
Down in East L.A.
Woooah, Down in East L.A.,
Woooah, Down in East L.A.
It's a part of the city,
But it's more than a place,
It's a smile on a face,
It's a dream come true,
And it's me and you,
And we feel it down deep in the soul,
And it gives from the young
And it gives to the old,
It's the promised land,
Where a man can be a man,
And his home,
Yes his home,
So be my friend,
And drink some wine,
Together we can party all the time,
Down in East L.A.,
Down in East L.A.
Woooah, down in East L.A.,
Woooah, down in East L.A.,
Woooah, down in East L.A,
Down in East L.A.
I got friends in East L.A.
Yes I do,
I want to thank them for being my friends,
And I want to thank you all for all being my friends,
Down in East L.A.,
Down in East L.A.,
Don't you know,
Tell me brother,
How do you feel,
When the pretty little girl over there ain't for real?
Tell me sister
How do you feel,
When that nappy head brother ain't for real?
You gotta' get down
Down down down down down
Tell me people,
How do you feel
When the president and secretaries ain't real?
Tell me people
What would you do,
If the running of the world was all left up to you?
You gotta' get down
Down down down down down
Come on then
You gotta' get down
Before you eat your breakfast
You gotta' get down
Gotta' get down
If super cool is your pleasure
And you want to find something better,
You gotta' get down
And if you're running the country
And you ain't running it funky
Better get down
And if you're running the country
And you ain't running it funky
You gotta' get down
Police and their justice
Laughing while they bust us
You gotta' get down
You gotta' get down
Down down down down down down down down
Ya Gotta' Get Down, You better get
I walk alone, alone alone alone
Feeling sad and so blue
Wondering if you love me, or do I love you
Oh yeah, Yeah
That's what love will do
That's what love will do
On a rainy day, a day in May
You can hear me say
I lost a good, a good good love
Now she's gone away
Oh yeah, Yeah
That's what love will do
That's what love will do
It's just a game a foolish game
That we all have to play
We have to try and get a little stronger, Lord knows we do
With each and every day
Well that's what love will do
That's what love will do
Look and see the doom's day is here
Candles firing, shells exploded
The final truth is definitive
Crush the Christian opposition
Total war
Destruction is here
Final war
Armageddon is f**king there
Look and see darkness is here
A tanks are rumbling forwards
The final truth the fist of Satan
Perish the flames of hell
Total war
Destruction is here
Final war
Armageddon is f**king there
Total war
Destruction is here
Total war
