She the new hero cuz she's so divine
Unaffected by the system, she'd rather die
Than write a rap 4 some big booty heifer gettin' by
On that booty, instead of doin' duty
Aspire 2 be higher, I admire so I fire
Cuz it's flyer 2 be hungry than phat
Take it from this sista, y'all take it from that
It's flyer 2 be hungry than phat
The ride up front is better when U've been in the back
That's a fact
This ain't about this y'all, it ain't about that
This ain't about the booty movin' pumpin' the max
This ain't about this, that, what, where, or how
This about the freaks doing everything they wanna do now!

Say one thing, do another, it's time
We chill on that
Nah, I don't need a gat
I'd rather see yourself checkin' ass up 2 bat 4 another swing
Anybody can sing
There's more 2 genius than the word my sister anything I would bring
Or would U rather dine alone?
If U change your mind, U can reach me on your video phone
It's a dime, as in dollars and that's my 2 bloody cents
This ain't about this, that, what, where, or how

Freaks dance like they in heaven

Fill us with de dope track, lick us, twist us, roll us in your mouth
Light us up and take a hit, light us up and take a hit
Mmm, suck us 'til we're dry
And when we're lookin' like a roach, hit the lights

(Now)
There was a time not long ago I felt complete I loved you so
And nights would never get me down but this has all been changed around
Now my world is filled with loneliness now I hurt so I should love you less
But now no matter what I do can't ease my mind I find I still love you
You waved goodbye without a word a door that closed was all I heard
And now I feel there's nothing nore all my happiness went out that door
And now my world is filled with loneliness...
Can't stop this living in the past how long this heartbreak have to last
If you'd come back to love again all my tears would stop but until then
My darlin' now my world is filled with loneliness...
Like it played loud
Powerhouse sounds
My body wants to rock and let it out
Really high born
Morning till dawn
I'm going all the way just on and on
It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild
It's gonna be wild
Now!
Teach me to fly
Wanna stay high
I have to live it up before I die
Nightlife and booze
Girls to choose
Are you ready, baby, come on let's cruise
It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild
It's gonna be wild
Now!
Getting out of control
There's nothing that can bring me down
Nothing I'll leave out tonight
I'm feeling good, I'm living now!
Like it real hot
Never can't stop
I'm running down the line to the top
Never stay low
I'm on the go
No one holds me back
It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild
It's gonna be wild
Now!
It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be wild
It's gonna be wild
Now when it rains I don't feel cold
Now that I have your hand to hold
The winds might blow through me
But I don't care
There's no harm in thunder if you are there and
Now when we touch my feelings fly
Now when I'm smiling I know why
You light up my world like the morning sun
You're so deep within me we're almost one
Chorus:
And now
All the fears that I had start to fade
I was always afraid love might forget me
Love might let me down
Then look who I found
And now, now
Now when I wake there's someone home
I'll never face the nights alone
You gave me the courage I need to win
To open my heart and to let you in
And I never really knew how until now
No, I never really knew how until now
If you think your thoughts so rationally
Then you might just see it’s not so funny
Prey tell.
The wishing well will get you eventually.
Beware.
What you are is what you’re doing there.
Love is lingering with you on it’s mind
And it’s giving you a moment so kind
Believe.
Your broken heart could heal so dramatically
And with a little luck
You could see a better way again real soon
As we stare into each other’s eyes
And each year just goes so fast and goodbye
Look around
What your friends are telling you so free
Be gone
It’s all over as the sun does set once more
If you think that love has a chance with you
Maybe hope can shine a light so true
Just smile
You can win the victory so sweet
And know
It’s just another day for you and me
And tomorrow – no more sorrow
You can all her - if you want to
There’s a new way – why won’t you try it
Heaven sent it and you’ll believe it now
Love can save you now
Love can save you now
I wanna know you better
Let's spend some time together
I wanna be what's on your mind
Look in my eyes, they're calling
I need your love to fall in
If you could just give me a sign
I can't get over baby
I can't get over now
I can't get over this feeling I feel
Now, right now
If the fire inside you
Feels like I feel now
Right now
Deep inside of me
Deep inside of me
I'm tired of make believin'
I'm lost and barely breathing
I'm on the ceiling, help me down, yeah, yeah
So stop my heart from aching
I'll be the risk you're taking
And I won't rest until you're mine, oh
I wanna show you baby
I wanna show you now
I wanna tell ya this feeling I feel
Now, right now
If the fire inside you
Feels like I feel now
Right now
If it's love you're craving
It's a love worth saving
Can't get over this feeling I feel now, yeah
Now, right now
Let the fire inside you
Burn like I do
Now, right now
If there's a love you're craving
It's a love worth saving
Deep inside of me
Deep inside, deep inside of me
Deep inside, deep inside of me
Deep inside of me
there is light coming in
through the crack in the door
there is hope
where i'd never expect it before
there are so many things
but there's nothing at all
you are learning to stand
i am learning to fall.
as the air in the night
becomes cooler and sweet
i get up seven times
just to cover his feet
there is pain
but i've packed it away for next year
there is newness and grace and for now,
there's no fear.
then
i can hardly remember what then used to be
then
there was someone i knew
looked exactly like me
i was running and running
with so much to boast
and i had no idea
what matters the most
as the air in the night
becomes cooler and sweet
i get up seven times
just to cover his feet
there is pain
but i've packed it away for next year
there is newness and grace and for now,
there's no fear.
later
when all of this has turned to songs
and faded pics
later
when colored wooden blocks
turn into heavy bricks
later
when you will greet me only
with the shyest smile
who knows what later brings?
and so meanwhile.
there is light coming in
through the crack in the door
there is hope
where i'd never expect it before
there are so many things
but there's nothing at all
you are learning to stand

Remember when I said
It didn't have a chance
Well now I'm slipping under
Your messin up my plans
I thought it was a game
I had the upper hand
Had to steal my thunder
I'm falling for you fast
So here I am
My feet are off the ground
My head is in the clouds
You got me where you want me
I'm in love with you now
There's nothing left to say
No way to fight this now
You got me where you want me
I'm in love with you now
It kills me now to think
I used to have control
But now you hold the strings
I'm in your puppet show
Is this the real damn thing
Is this what loves about
I'm starting to like this
My guard is so let down
So here I am
My feeet are ofd the ground
My head is in the clouds
You got me where you want me
I'm in love with you now
There's nothing left to say
No way to fight this now
You got me where you want me
I'm in love with you now
I tried to fight it off so long
But I failed
I tried to hold my breath
But I guess I exhaled
I tried to stop my self falling in love
But it wasn't enough
So here I am
My feeet are ofd the ground
My head is in the clouds
You got me where you want me
I'm in love with you now
There's nothing left to say
No way to fight this now
You got me where you want me
Waste my time running in circles
Waste my time going bad on the vine
I spent the last year walking through the fire
Now I do believe it's my turn to shine
(Now it's my turn to shine)
Waste my time walking in rythym
Waste my time talking in rhyme
I spent the last year in a Mexican freefall
I do believe it's my turn to climb
I used to think I was born to know trouble
I used to think I was a born-again clown
I used to think I had everybody guessing
I looked like I was flying high when I was falling down
Now I am taller than I used to be
Now I am living again
Now I like where I have found myself
This is where I want to be now
Now this is where I want to be
Now this is where I want to be
Now this is where I want to be
I was falling free in Mexico
Living on those taco bars and sweet sunshine
Learning how to walk again in my own skin
Learning the art of losing my mind
I used to think I was born in a hurricane
I used to think I was jumping jack flash
I used to think I was a victim of circumstance
Beating up on everyone all the time
I should have been kicking myself
in my own ass
Now I don't worry about the future much
Now I don't think about the past
Now I'm learning how to laugh again
This is where I want to be now
Now I'm tired of the drama club
Now I'm sick with all the hate
Yeah, it's been one hell of a hard year
This is where I want to be now
This is where I want to be now
Who knows where this road will end
What you're gonna miss
Life's not long enough
To spend it on regrets
All I know is what I'm seein' in your eyes
Hold me close before the moment passes by
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever a meant to be
Truly was meant to be
It's us
Right here, right now
Say a million other dreams
Haunt you in your sleep
It's hard to know which ones
Are the ones that you should keep
But look around
Don't get caught up in the past
Put your faith in the ones you think will last
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever a meant to be
Truly was meant to be
It's us
Right here, right now
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever a meant to be
Truly was meant to be
It's us
Right here, right now
Right now
Handcuffed to the railroad tracks
Gagged and bound, down on my knees
My head upon a platter for you
I'll offer anything
Now, now, any way you want me
Now, now, any way you want
Now, now, any way you want me
Now you know, as long as you want me, now
So now I'm the type of alien
Who's a liar and a thief
I assure you it's no cheap trick baby
I just want you to want me
So maybe you should get legal consultation
Maybe you should get a lock and bar your door
You should seek therapy in preparation, darling
'Cause it's you I'm coming for
Now, now, any way you want me
Now, now, any way you want
Now, now, any way you want me
Now you know, as long as you want me, now
Do you expect me to patiently wait?
I can't get along with anyone else
You should've seen me dating around
But they weren't like you, ooh
Now, now, any way you want me
Now you know, as long as you want
Now, now, any way you want me
Now, now, any way you want
Now, now, any way you want me
When you come to a fork in the road
You can almost taste it
Never knowing which way to go
It's not been tested
All alone you try to take it to fake it
And is the road less traveled taken or forsaken
Now it's up to you
The path that you choose
Got to do something different
Now it's all the same
No one to blame
Got to do something different now
So you head down the road that you chose
Just keep pushing forward
And the window is trying to close
Just to shut you out
All alone you try to take it or fake it
And is the road less traveled taken or forsaken
Now it's up to you
The path that you choose
Got to do something different
Now it's all the same
No one to blame
Got to do something different
Something different
It's up to you
The path that you choose
Got to do something different now
Now it's all the same
No one to blame
Got to do something different now
It's up to you
The path that you choose
Got to do something different
If I could be 13 again
To live with no regret
When I could still be president
And I could feel my dad
As he's holding me in his arms
Not in my dreams
And I could not wait to be
Something at 23
But now I've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning, blazing, so amazing
From here love looks so effortless
The simple used to do
Grass never feels so green, I guess
Underneath our shoes
Let's you and me and CNN
Flip the switch, go back again
I wonder who we'd see
Reflecting from our TV
But now, we've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning, blazing so amazing
The reconstruction you can do
With scissors and a little glue
And leave what's left to decorate the ground
Rediscovering your bliss
Is the sweetest part of this
Is all we need right now
But now, we've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning, blazing so amazing
But now, we've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning, blazing so amazing
But now, we've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning, blazing so amazing
Right now, right now,
Right now, right now

when's better than now
when's better than now
to come with nothing and deny you
when's better than now
when's better than now
to not believe a thing you say
i've restrained but it can't go down this way
eye's that lie - hide
burning time, burning time & blaming memory
to return back to a comfort
in an attempt to feel complete
than tokenize
with lying eye's as if to care
and it's a shock that you leave calmly
as fas as you appear
when's better than now
when's better than now
to come with nothing and deny you
when's better than now
when's better than now
to take blame unscathed and remain
estranged i can walk straight estranged
with blinders bound
time
burning time, burning time & blaming memory
oh i won't let myself be troubled
or deny i'm part guilty
the road will rise
blackened skies in time will clear
though it's a shock now to the body
...I try to put me together
I'll kill you, I'll rape you, now I try to...
now I'll kill you... now
Angel from amber
Bringing me our precious love
And I am falling ...
But I don't mind, now I know
It's so easy to let go
Every day's a new beginning
Every says you'll be all around
All I want you see with you
Right now
(Angel)
(Right now)
My angel, he never knew
That everything I lost I find in you
And our future holds no fear
You've blown it all away
Because it's easy when you say
Every day's a new beginning
Every says you'll be all around
All I want you see with you
If I could be thirteen again
To live with no regret
When I could still be president
And I could feel my dad
As he's holding me in his arms
Not in my dreams
And I could not wait to be
Something at twenty-three
But now I've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning
Blazing, so amazing now
Now, now, now, now, now, now
From here love looks so effortless
The simple used to do
Grass never feels as green, I guess
Underneath our shoes
Let's you and me and CNN
Flip the switch, go back again
I wonder who we'd see

To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning
Blazing, so amazing now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Right now, right now, right now, yeah, ooh
The reconstructing you can do
With scissors and a little glue
And leave what's left to decorate the ground
Rediscovering your bliss
Is the sweetest part of this
(This)
Is all we need
Right now we've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
Why look back, why look back
Right now we've got the sun
To clear away the clouds
So why look back
When there's a stunning

So why look back
When there's a so amazing now
Now, now, now, now now, now
Right now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, right now, right now
Now, I can really see the light
After years of being blind
Self-destruction in my mind
Oh you, I want you on my side
After days of loneliness
After years of emptiness
I would never ever see the light like now
I lived for years without knowing (without knowing)
What is illusion, what is real (what is real)
All around smiling people, empty talkings
Many friends, but only when there is no need, oh no...
When the time is rough and it's so cold outside
But one's helping, but you, facing the tide...
Now, I can really see the light
After years of being blind
Self-destruction in my mind
Oh you, I want you on my side
After days of loneliness
After years of emptiness
I would never ever see the light like now
You know I can see the light
You know I can see the light
When the time is rough and it's so cold outside
But one's helping, but you, facing the tide...
Now, I can really see the light
After years of being blind
Self-destruction in my mind
Oh you, I want you on my side
After days of loneliness
After years of emptiness
Oh oh, now, I can really see the light
After years of being blind
Self-destruction in my mind
well i need to be around you and i need to see your eyes on me now
and i need to caress your face with mine
and i need to know that you care 'cause i bleed in pain when i'm without your soul
cuz I love you on a level so high ot's hard sometimes I know i am to me around you
we have to be together now I'll miss you while I'm gone
but here and now is where I belong.

I'm on my feet now, shit never was it sweet now
Belly but I'm still starve can I eat now, live complete
Now, told by the older god never put the heat down
Far from reper humbo meat now fuck with
The winners bitches listen when I speak
Got on some rap shit find it hard to creep
Now I'm on point and move deep more relete
Could Clap you but ain't nothing like a baet down
We swept down these streets now like community
sevrivce reach your faith face defeat now we

Find a rapper who can match bleek sent him to the brooks (Brooklyn)
Swaet runs down the centre of my back
Crawling like an insect - it makes a track
Swaet runs down the nape of my neck
Anticipation - the cause and the effect
So catch each drop as I catch each breath
'Til there's no doubt, no indecision, 'til there's not one question left
Walking streets alone amid a mass of strangers faces
Fill my time with thoughts of you and I in distant places
Now i must have you !
You breathe new life - it's all around
It calls my name without a sound
This distance cuts down deep inside
Planes carre like knievs acrosss the sky
I must be with you !
This place never cares to see who goes or who remains
I wait and watch the boats set sail, I linger and listen to the far off trains
This land of mine, drifts off alone, far out to sea
With no direction, no intention, nothing left to offer me
And I can't stay !
It stand alone - back on the world
And through it all it still seems to curl
Itself around the people, binding tighter than a rope
Gives nothing away for something, each day without hope
It's no home for the luxury of love !
The Good Life out of each on the placards
Doesn't hide away the truth of the broken down facades
The buildings burn, the streets on fire
Every muscle,every nerve stretched to reach for somewhere higher
Feel me now !
Will youremain, place your trust
Turn ideas into motions before mechanisms rust
Will you hold me tight with arms, with words, in your comfort keep me warm
I beg refuge in your shelter as I fly into the storm
Take me !
As I walk this hall alone I wonder
exactly why it is I'm leaving
when there's nothing there for me to return to
other than blind faith
with a lack of believing
and not to say that I have nothing
I have everything and I am grateful
but my head is trying to tell me something
in this state of mind I feel so hateful
and I don't understand
and I'm not going to try to because
now that I've seen it
I couldn't walk away no
even if I wanted to, yes
now that I've seen it
even though I'm leaving now
every bit of me is still there
well I am filled with a quiet resolution
and questions posed without solution
and in my realm of indecision
finally I feel as though I can see something
and though this beacons ever flashing
Ii can't revisit without rehashing
when I'm stuck in where I created fear
I can not fix myself from here
and I'm starting to understand
at least in this state I believe something because
now that I've seen it
I couldn't walk away no
even if I wanted to, yes
now that I've seen it
even though I'm leaving now
every bit of me is still there
the amount of times
I've seen the edge
of my own head
is unrelenting
the floor falls out
and I am left with
thoughts that move
without consenting
when all I want is peace
and all I want to believe in
is knowing without seeing
and wanting without fear
now that I've seen it
I couldn't walk away no
even if I wanted to, yes
now that I've seen it
even though I'm leaving now
I've been waiting for a sign
I've been waiting for a sign
To tell me where, tell me where
I belong
And you've been waiting for the night
You've been waiting for the night
To take you far, take you far
Away from me
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Ho, ho, ho, ho
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Ho, ho, ho, ho
I've been waiting for a sign
I've been waiting for a sign
To tell me where, tell me where
Where I belong
And you've been waiting for the night
You've been waiting for the night
To take you far, take you far
Away from here
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
And as I'm waiting on your doorstep, now
I notice patterns in the paint
I'm wondering how the glass will hit when I
As I turn and go in shame
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Don't dream of hours gone by
Of seconds came and spent
Don't wish on distant stars
Of worlds come and went
(Oh, what do I see?)
Tripping through the moments
(And to my shame)
I've longed for years and months and days
(And daysâ¦)
Don't wait for cloudless skies
When the sun breaks in between
Don't hope on fruitless things
What's in our hands, on what is seen
(Oh, what do I see?)
Tripping through the moments
(And to my shame)
I've longed for years and months and days
(And daysâ¦)
Don't swim in drowning grief
Anticipating the despair
Don't choke the seeds of joy
Give them life and give them air
(Oh, what do I see?)
Tripping through the moments
(And to my shame)
I've longed for years and months and days
(And daysâ¦)
Since I held the hands
(That bore my shame)
I count the years and months and days
Once there was nothing but nothingness
Then something happened and now there is somethingness
Now there is allness and tallness and smallness
Now there is roundness, profoundness and soundness
And silence and violence and now there are trees
And CD's and disease
And now there is now
Now there is now
Now there is now
There is light coming in
Through the crack in the door
There is hope
Where i'd never expect it before
There are so many things
But there's nothing at all
You are learning to stand
I am learning to fall.
As the air in the night
Becomes cooler and sweet
I get up seven times
Just to cover his feet
There is pain
But i've packed it away for next year
There is newness and grace and for now,
There's no fear.
Then
I can hardly remember what then used to be
Then
There was someone i knew
Looked exactly like me
I was running and running
With so much to boast
And i had no idea
What matters the most
As the air in the night
Becomes cooler and sweet
I get up seven times
Just to cover his feet
There is pain
But i've packed it away for next year
There is newness and grace and for now,
There's no fear.
Later
When all of this has turned to songs
And faded pics
Later
When colored wooden blocks
Turn into heavy bricks
Later
When you will greet me only
With the shyest smile
Who knows what later brings?
And so meanwhile.
There is light coming in
Through the crack in the door
There is hope
Where i'd never expect it before
There are so many things
But there's nothing at all
You are learning to stand
Why didn't you tell me that the only reason
Why you walked away
Is you were afraid I might leave you?
And why didn't you tell me that the only reason
For the things you'd say
Is you were afraid I didn't need you?
And now that you've done everything you could
To make me lose my faith in you
You say, "Come on, believe me"
And now that you've done everything you could
To make me lose my desire for you
You say, "Please, don't leave me"
Why didn't you tell me that the only people
That you push that far
Are the ones that you really love?
And why the night we were talking
And walking under the West Side Highway
Did you say, "This would never ever be enough?"
And now that you've done everything you could
To make me lose my faith in you
You say, "Believe me"
And now that you've done everything you could
To make me lose my desire for you
You say, "Please, don't leave me"
You try so hard to explain
You try so hard to take the blame
I don't mind what you say
Gotta think positive right now gotta stop whining right now each day gets better somehow gotta think positive right now get it up get it up get it right now get your chin up get your lead out get your whoa whoa
Late at night just thinking of you,
Wishing you were here to talk to, now, oh no.
At times I feel so all alone,
Travelling down this long and winding road.
I know that you'll be waiting for me,
I wish that I was with you,
Now, now.
I can't wait to see your face again,
But I'm so far away.
With every city I count the days...
Oh, the days.
Another lonely hotel room,
I know that I'll be with you soon,
I know, I know
Another show, another place.
Caught inside this same old race.
I know
I know that you'll be waiting for me,
I wish that I was with you,
Now, now.
I can't wait to see your face again,
But I'm so far away.
With every city I count the days...
Now,
now when the time has come,
the shape of the past has begun,
to form an emotion of sight and sound.
The tune still lingers in your head,
Its with you when you go to bed.
The dream made you feel wide awake yesterday.
The vision enough to a lie,
While waiting for the truth to arrive,
you know what the doctor perscribed was sleep.
I drawn out the pictures of hell,
since I told all the fortuns to tell,
I believe that its the time to withdraw,
and stand my ground.
Time is old and twisted now,
Trying to get through somehow,
making up the pattern,
almost drew the shape of you.
It's me you dream of when you're scared,
and I know that its the strangest thing,
assuming that its all plain and simple,
the stars that twinkle.
They twinkle light.
So now,
that your on your own,
the season to cry has begun,
yet still your the one who is perfectly calm,
you walk in the garden you know,
your hands alone have planted this earth,
They nurtured the seeds that have grown to life!
Never beneath the nor above em',
when the surface is you that is grown,
know the love that you carry is above any world.
Now, the room full of something to light,
all the darkness that you have to fight.
All my life I’ve waited
And I’ve been afraid and
I wondered If I’d find
Someone to share my life
Every day I prayed and
Every night I searched in
Every stranger’s eyes
For some kind of sign
Me and my heart wishin’ in the dark
Tryin’ to believe in a sky full of stars
I was waiting for you
A million empty days, too much time and space
Every tear I cried, every lonely night
I was waiting for you
Now here you are
And my world is, my world is so beautiful
Now here you are
And my life is, and my life is so wonderful
The past seems like a dream
Just vacancy
How did I exist before our first kiss
Oh I feel so lucky because I know you
Love me
And no one ever has, like no one ever has
Me and my heart wishin’ in the dark
Tryin’ to believe in a sky full of stars
I was waiting for you
All those empty days, all the time and space
Every tear I cried, every lonely night
I was waiting for you
The past seems like a dream
Just vacancy
How did I exist before our first kiss
Oh I feel so lucky because I know you
Love me
And no one ever has, like no one ever has
The past seems like a dream
Just vacancy
How did I exist before our first kiss
Oh I feel so lucky because I know you
Love me
I feel alone even with myself
But it does better me
I'd like to tell you how I'm feeling now
But it ruins everything
You try to judge me now, tomorrow's okay
You try to tell me now how I should fail
I don't feel like I should be here
I feel alone even with myself
Do you know what I mean
I can't explain those things that seem to repel me
They ruin everything
Your fears are working now but I don't complain
I'm working hard to listen and that's okay
Don't you know it's not okay to be afraid of me
I hate to tell you but you're in my way
I hate when someone tries to push me away
Don't you know you can't be afraid of me
Giving away all I'm feeling now
Why don't you listen to this heart full of pain
Sounds like complaining but it's hard to refrain
Don't you know you can't be afraid of me
The clock is ticking
The seconds pass you by as you lie frozen
You are petrified of one more failure
A swing and a miss might break your heart in half
Yeah I know you feel alone
Don't let it break your back
Don't lay down
Don't let it destroy you
Pain is real but it's not gonna own you
Not this time around
(This is your time now)
Get back up, gotta keep on trying
Raise your fist, gotta keep on fighting
This is your time now
This is your time now
Your head is spinning
The path is right before you but you're stopping
The cycle locks you in and you can't see
That you're so close to finally being free
Yeah I know, yes I know
That you can turn the key
You're not hopeless, you're not worthless, no
You are loved, don't give up now
[Big Pooh:]
Now ft. murs & 9th wonderintro:
Chea yeah, uh big pooh, wha murs, wha
It's like, I'm like, we like,
Were the only three niggas it seems
Like in the rap game,
Without baby mothers
It's like, so we all know the brothas
I'm like, we like,
Justice league, livin legends, I'm like
[Big Pooh:]
Check me,
One less rapper, pooh
Chill type fellow
Like ta play the cut, observe
Be mellow
Niggas wanna test ya boy
They wanna mess with ya boy
I tell em not tonight my nigga, hello!
I gotta chip on my shoulder
Bigger than a boulder
I swear I told you, or warned you son,
I'm not the one
When you see me come into the booth
Ya best bet, just reverse pivot and run
Top dog, I'm a son of a who
Wanna run with the crew
Told you, "we the illest there is! "
J-nizzy always handle they biz
I got no time for these kids
Who wanna pack, I don't speak to them
When I talk it sounds freak to them
Cause homie I don't pretend
So xxxx you I ain't tryin to be friends
Better yet, I'm the realist they come
Like helium, on the rise bout to be the one
[Chorus:]
People wanna stop my shine
And they wanna take what's mine
Ever since I came out the gate
Niggas, slept on the can
And they wonder why I hate niggas
Niggas see me doin my thing,
They wanna be apart of my team
And they wonder why I stay on the low
To avoid fake niggas
Tryin to steal my glow
[Big Pooh:]
And,
This is for anybody not checkin for me
Or the cats from the league
Or the state of nc {you tell em}
We put it down like,
Or get around like
Shot-g[? ] when hes playing her theme
And now these chickies,
Gettin wet to hump me
Guess I gotta go & make groupies part 3
So pardon me for my foul demeaner
Ever since the listening
Pooh's got a lot meaner
I've seen her
And she ain't pretty
The other side of the dream
When the dude get gritty
Random niggas wanna claim me inside
Family members arise
Who you ain't heard from since 5
I wish,
You could get a closer look at my eyes
And realise this is pain brewin from the inside
But my pride won't let me quit
And I'm the man that I am just because of it.
Biatch!
[Chorus:]
People wanna stop my shine
And they wanna take what's mine
Ever since I came out the gate
Niggas, slept on the can
And they wonder why I hate niggas
Niggas see me doin my thing,
They wanna be apart of my team
And they wonder why I stay on the low
To avoid fake niggas
Tryin to steal my glow
[Murs:]
This is murs cst-1.9.7.8.
Since then been a g from the golden state
First touched a four track back in 1992
Now I'm bustin on tracks with a rapper
Named pooh, your crew-
"how should I put it? "
Inconsiquential,
Were intercontinental over chist's instrumentals
Not as simple as it looks
16 and a hook
There's a lot more to the rap game nigga look
That's exactly how you up and comin artists get shook and took
For all your green, broken self-isteem
Your hopes and your dreams,
It's not as easy as it seems
To get your cd on this scene
Keep rappin for fun
Freestylin to ya self
Bout how you're clappin your guns
While I'm stacking these hun's
Til they thick as a tilla
How'd you gotta glass jaw
Trying to spit like a killer
I rhyme right hooks
To your transparent mandable
Shatter, leavin shards
Of your showbiz animals
That train to look hard
For these video channels
So they, mean up they mug
And hardcore strut
Like they soft as the porn that they're showin uncut
Wanted to xxxx every last one of ya'll up
But big pooh told me chill
Plus the label called me up
That you would prolly sue
Cause your crew is to timid
Plus it wouldn't be good for my backpacker image haha!
[Chorus:]
People wanna stop my shine
And they wanna take what's mine
Ever since I came out the gate
Niggas, slept on the can
And they wonder why I hate niggas
Niggas see me doin my thing,
They wanna be apart of my team
And they wonder why I stay on the low
To avoid fake niggas
Tryin to steal my glow
Chea uh wha wha
I don’t wanna talk to you
I don’t wanna know your name
I don’t wanna feel your pain
I don’t wanna be a part of
a never ending sore
I don’t wanna leave you anymore
I wanna know you
Wanna to live with you
I wanna to grow on you
Wanna grow up with you
I wanna get down with you
Let’s fast forward
Forget the introduction
Let’s jump in
We can skip the whole production
Don’t waste time with remedial seduction
Get in it, get on it
I’m here if you want it
I don’t wanna be without
I don’t wanna take the blame
I don’t wanna be attained
I don’t wanna be remembered as the one who never called
I don’t wanna be like that at all
I wanna know you
Wanna to live with you
I wanna to grow on you
Wanna grow up with you
I wanna get down with you
Let’s fast forward
Forget the introduction
Let’s jump in
We can skip the whole production
Don’t waste time with remedial seduction
Get in it, get on it
I’m here if you want it
I don’t wanna be
Another
To hover over you
I don’t wanna be
Just some lover
I can’t deny
I don’t wanna talk to you
I don’t wanna know your name
I don’t wanna feel your pain
I don’t wanna be a part of a never ending sore
I don’t wanna leave you
Let’s fast forward
Forget the introduction
Let’s jump in
We can skip the whole production
Don’t waste time with remedial seduction
Get in it, get on it
I’m here if you want it
Let’s fast forward
Forget the introduction
Let’s jump in
We can skip the whole production
Don’t waste time with remedial seduction
Get in it, get on it
I’m here if you want it
Let’s
Get in it, get on it
I’m here if you want it
Now is all I know
Now is all I got
And I don't know
If there will be tomorrow for us.
Now is all I care about
Now that you are here
Now that you're the contents of my heart.
Now you're all I know
Now is all I promise
And I don't know
If there will be a future for us.
Now is all I live for
Now that you are near
And it was best that from the start it was clear.
Refrain:
Loving is not owning
We can let it go
We can let it go.
Loving is not owning
You can let me go
You can let me go.
Chorus:
There's a reason
Why we love each other now
And we don't know if this is forever.
There's a reason
Why we are together now
And we don't care if it's not forever now.
Now is all I think about
Now that I am happy
And I'm not sure
If there will be a future for us.
Now is all I offer
It's everything I got
And I still wish
That there will be a tomorrow for us.
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
Ad Lib
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus except last word)
(Repeat Chorus)
Coda:
It's not over even though it's finally through
Drank the cup awhile till somebody withdrew
Feel the wind cry out as it screams against your face
All that love you drank now you shake with distaste
All the birds will cry are they doing it for you?
Touch the winter sky well it's just it and you
Was the grass that green when you looked at it before?
Where the cliffs that harsh when you opened that door?
It's taking you over it's taking you through
Was the sky always that blue?
Feel the beginning murder the end
Did you need a friend when it's not over now
And it's not over now as you lie down on your back
Hear the cat meow as the clouds all turn black
And the ocean dreams and you think it looks like rain
Just get soaked awhile let it wash out your pain
The water's your lover, the sky is your friend
There never really was an end
Surf down a sand dune, your fates in your hands
So what if it came down make a fortress hide Bleeding is not me It's just not
the way there are many others Yell so loudly breaking down but you'll hear no
sound That's what I'm meaning Strange from the start though it just may not be
quite the same Like a ship with no water sailing across boulder seas Ripping it
up from the bottom like piranha filled waters There's no sunsets from the
diseased Since there's no meaning why would you want to believe This couldn't
leave you Reclaim all your judgments Why would you want to believe This
couldn't leave you Break my muted silent tongue flapping gums I speak Only to
those who will listen without preconceived prejudice I was so wrong There's no
such thing as no prejudice And I believe maybe someday we'll all conquer this
Life it seems so great but they all don't last
Seasons change so fast and we're catching up
There's nothing in this world that's bound to last
Clouded thoughts of memories are all I have
Living in between words can be so sad
There's nothing compared to what we have
[Chorus]
I won't wait for tomorrow or living all back in the
past
I'll hold on to what is real to what we have
Come with me and we will sail away from here
Ask the oceans to drown all the pain within
There's so much love to share, a love so dear
[Chorus]
I won't wait for tomorrow or living all back in the
past
I'll hold on to what is real to what we have
*Instrumental*
[Chorus]
I won't wait for tomorrow or living all back in the
past
I'll hold on to what is real to what we have
Life it seems so great but they all don't last
Goodbye my love
I'm goanna miss you
When I go I promise to forget
I'd never twist a story sideways
I was traveled different highways
And it always leads me back to you again
We connected through the distance
With electric hearts somehow
Still dreaming bout tomorrow-oh oh
But all we have is...
Now now
All we have is now
The future's on illusion
Don't fall for empty vows
All we have is now
Staons on the paper
Are tears from yesterday
When the colors start to fade it's like it rained
My thoughts could fill an ocean
I'm drowing in emotion
And we'll never have this moment back again
Chain a light through all the bridges
That somehow kisses the sky
And the angels tart to cry
Cause all we have is...
Sounds of silence cross our minds
It's not the record playing
We're closer
All we have is now
And in this one reality
Single words come suddenly
An accident of melody and harmany
All we have is now
don't hideaway, hideaway from your imagery
don't hideaway, hideaway from all your daydreams
(or your nightmares)
what is to fear when surrounded in apathy
when putting down words is just like pulling teeth away
and i know some kind of rain will fall
but it can't rain everyday
don't hideaway, hideaway from your intricacies
and don't hideaway, hideaway from all your obliques
(it's all out there)
there's no need to fear all those things in your histories
when putting down words is like putting things away
I know somethings aren't perfect
Drum set worn on the surface
Some things are better with age
Some things no longer remain
I know that things aren't perfect
Sick and a little nervous
Knives tend to get dull and round
So lets cut this whole building down
Now now now now now now now X4
I know that things aren't perfect
Socks with holes no-one noticed
Sneakers off laces still tied
Some times truth sounds just like lies
I know that things aren't perfect
But lets make tonight worth it
Stand up right here take a bow
And we will all ride this thing down
Now now now now now now now x4
Now now now now now now now
(Some things aren't perfect)
Now now now now now now now
(Make today worth it)
Now now now now now now now
(Somethings aren't perfect)
Now now now now now now now
Osanaki koro wa hakanasa ni obie

Break away
Kill the past
Makes no sence to worry now
Future days
Never last
Only time we got is now
Break away
Kill the past
Makes no sence to worry now
Future days
Never last
Only time we got is now
For something new
Nakushita MONO wa monoclrome no naka
Shikisai wa kitto ima no naka ni dake
Can anybodys
Can anybodys tell me now
Can anybodys
Can anybodys show me how
Break away
Kill the past
Makes no sence to worry now
Future days
Never last
Only time we got is now
For something new
Looking back don't give me ahead
Just walk away from yesterday
Need an end to begin
Living for now the only way
Dake ni toraware osorenai toki no naka de shireta omae wa taisetsuna
Koe wo hosomereba hosomeru dake omae wa furimukanai
Break away
Kill the past
Makes no sence to worry now
Future days
Never last
Only time we got is now
For something new
Looking back don't give me ahead
Just walk away from yesterday
One that
Begs
Prays
On the phone
Makes
Makes waste
Dies alone
Gets on
Gets off
Going to fall
Gets laid
Works late
My eye is on the ball
One that
Drinks
Pays
Can't wait for long
Just sees
Believes
Knows right from wrong
Spies
Watches
Keeps the young
We're all in one and
One is odd
My eye is on the ball
One is filthy
One is broke
One becomes a whore
One has not what
One has had
One that wants it more
One can play
One just fakes it
One who knows the spot
One who hopes to
One day be the
One who makes a lot
Respects
Regrets
Ones who see it all
My eye is on
My eye is on the ball
Remembers
Regrets
One who sees it all
My eye is on
More and more and more and more
My life's become such a bore
It's substance abuse, but the substance is you
Which one here is really be used
Faith you can buy and love you can try
But TV is what really makes our hearts fly
Our brains and our eyes, bodies and minds
Jacked up on anything that we can buy
So find yourself and not materials
'Cause what you buy is all subliminal
It's not what you drive or how you dress
It's what's inside and in your head
Decency overshadowed by cash flow increase
How much do you make a week
Weakness a priority
Do you know what it really means to me
So find yourself and not materials
'Cause what you buy is all subliminal
It's not what you drive or how you dress
It's what's inside and in your head
Skip the line step outside
Join those who choose to leave the box behind
That's not all it's just he first step
Your mouth is red -- I'm picturing it in my head
I'm picturing you smile at me
I want you to be with me NOW
Your hair is brown -- I'm picturing it hanging down
I'm picturing it falling 'round those big brown eyes
I wanna be with you NOW
You're much more that this -- a spiritual bliss
No matter who I'm with I miss you
Your magnetism breathes through the moonlit trees
it's in the quiet breeze that's circling me NOW
Your face is bright -- I'm picturing it every night
I'm picturing you when I sleep
I can keep you with me that way
& your heart is mine -- I think about you all the time
I can hear you say to me that you wanna be with me
You're much more that this -- a spiritual bliss
No matter who I'm with I miss you
Your magnetism breathes through the moonlit trees
it's in the quiet breeze that's circlin' me
Take down
Cast out what you know
Turn around
Your life’s been bought and sold
You’ve lost your footing
still we hear you scream
No sound
To find yourself alone
What now?
There’s no one left to hold
You’ve lost your footing
still we hear you scream
Who loves you now?
When tear drop often stain your eyes
Who loves you now?
Cause when the feeling is gone
Then nothing remains in your life
Drive down
When giving up is old
What now
The fire in you’s cold
You’ve come all this way
just to hear me scream
Lay down
Do just what you’re told
Stay down
With you they broke the mold
You’ve come all this way

TG ORGANIZER
RU486ing injustice? If so, then get on the bus
this moment. Let’s foment dischord in the District
of Corruptia. Show your vital signs. It’s up to you
to keep Title IX’s impact intact. No jest. And
whichever man has the balls to come to the prochoice
protest is going to get so sexed.
(Enter Genevieve and Man.)
GENEVIEVE
What do we want? And when do we want it?
(She has a whole henna sleeve that says, “Who cares
what men achieve?” Under her arm: America’s
Wrong by Erica Jong. Leaning against the bus.)
No blood for oil.
No cud for soil.
GENEVIEVE
No bills for spills.
No swill in gills.
GENEVIEVE
Think globally. Act locally.
So your frontal lobe’ll react vocally?
GENEVIEVE
(She has tits. Two of them. Makes her WFMU
shirt look like Wu-fm. She wears hot shorts, lets
out some sort of snot snort.) You like my belly
necklace? You want a smelly breakfast?
Okay, Miss Fish Filet, shall we stay at the Suisse
Chalet off I-495? (Breaks out the travel size
Astroglide. There’s no proof the paper told the
truth that Castro lied.)
MAN AND GENEVIEVE
One size fits all. Buns, thighs, tits, y’all. Moist?
Yup.
Hoist up. Me first. Now twirl. Reverse cowgirl.
Crikey. Sploosh! Nike swoosh up the dykey toosh.
I put my minibig skinny twig in her guinea pig
camel toes. Baw bana naw bananana da nanow.
That’s how the sample goes. Cliterally? Went from
red to green—literally. Vaginally? Drenched with
sweat and the stench of pet. Finally, Frenched the
wet whooseywhatsits. Blew through her oozey butt
zits. Not a modicum—a lot of come.
GENEVIEVE
I want more come.
Don’t worry. There’s more of the same come where
that come came from. I follow politics to ball all the
chicks. Cross-pollinate then call it quits. Hey, hey.
Ho, ho. The girl I just slept with has got to go.
GENEVIEVE
Hey, hey. Ho, ho. The guy I just slept with has got to
I see you there,
baggy pants and flowers in your hair
Pockets full of poppy seeds
You're smiling there
You're wearing your beads
but I'm anticipating something of a wild child
to be revealed.
If only I could steal one glimpse of your loveliness,
your fiery lioness
I'd be satisfied.
You know that I want you
so would you please allow?
There's never been a better time than now.
Looking so sweet so innocent,
you could fool the sharpest eyes
but I'm not so ignorant
of what it is you try to hide.
We're all just creatures on a rolling ball off course.
Of course we need the love.
Let me tell you I've got love,
you've got love,
we all got it baby.
Ooh sometimes it's hard to see but
I will guarantee it's there.
You know that I want you
so would you please allow?
There's never been a better time than now.
Some days I get a little crazed
thinking about the ways
that you amaze the hell out of me.
And then the time it passes by
like southbound birds in a winter sky
and I face forward and wonder why, wonder why.
You know that I want you
so would you please allow?
There's never been a better time than now.
There's never been a better time than now.
Don't believe in everything you hear
Don't believe in everything you read
Don't believe in everything you see
Don't believe in me
Don't believe in anything you know
Don't believe there's somewhere you can go
Don't believe in anybody else
Don't believe in yourself
You say you want the world or nothing
What goes around will come around
And after all we'll all fall down
No one here is anyone
And in a while we'll all be gone
This is now
This is now
Here and now
Don't believe in anything that's old
Don't believe in anything you're told
Don't believe in anything that's new
No one here believes in you
Don't believe that anybody cares
Don't believe that anything is there
Don't believe that anythings for real
Don't believe what you feel
You say you want the world or nothing
What goes around will come around
And after all we'll all fall down
No one here is anyone
And in a while we'll all be gone
This is now
This is now
Here and now
Don't believe you'll find your way back home
Don't believe you'll find your way back home
Don't believe that you're something on your own
Don't believe that you're something on your own
Don't believe there's something you can do
Don't believe there's something you can do
Don't believe your dreams can come true

This is it
I know
This is it
I’m just inches from the onswitch
This is it
I know
This is it
I have waited all my life for now
[FREDRIK]
Now, as the sweet imbecilities
Tumble so lavishly
Onto her lap,
Now, there are two possibilities:
A, I could ravish her,
B, I could nap.
Say It's the ravishment, then we see
The option
That follows, of course:
A, The deployment of charm, or
B, The adoption
Of physical force.
Now, B might arouse her,
But if I assume I trip on my trouser
Leg crossing the room...
Her hair getting tangled,
Her stays getting snapped,
My nerves would be jangled,
My energy sapped...
Removing her clothing
Would take me all day,
And her subsequent loathing
Would turn me away,
Which eliminates B
And which leaves us with A.
Now, insofar as approaching it,
What would be festive
But have its effect?
Now, there are two ways of broaching it:
A, the suggestive,
And B, the direct.
Say that I settle on B, to wit,
A charmingly Lecherous mood,
A, I could put on my nightshirt or sit
Disarmingly, B, in the nude.
That might be effective;
My body's all right--
But not in perspective
And not in the light.
I'm bound to be chilly
And feel a buffoon,
But nightshirts are silly
In mid-afternoon.
Which leaves the suggestive,
But how to proceed?
Although she gets restive,
Perhaps I could read.
In view of her penchant
For something romantic,
De Sade is to trenchant
And Dickens too frantic,
And Stendhal would ruin
The plan of attack,
As there isn't much blue in "The Red and the Black."
De Maupassant's candour
Would cause her dismay,
The Brontes are grander
But not very gay,
Her taste is much blander,
I'm sorry to say,
But is Hans Christian Ander-
Sen ever risque?
Which eliminates A...
Now, with my mental facilities
Partially muddied
And ready to snap,
Now, though there are possibilities
Still to be studied, I might as well nap.
Bow
Though I must
To adjust
My original plan,
How
Shall
I sleep
Half as deep
As I usually can,
When now I still want and/or love you,
Now as always,
Now, Anne?
Now At this point in history
Now There's a chance of liberty
Now If we grasp what the future brings
Now Everyone could live like kings
Now With the power that's waiting there
Now Everyone could take a share
Now We can get what we dream about
Now Times are changing, there can be no doubt
For the first time in centuries
Maybe we can find some unity
We don't want to hear about the enemy
Other human beings are all we can see
Now Now
Now With the whole world on T.V.
Now You believe what you can see
Now If we make our feelings known
Now We can prove we are not alone
Now At this point in history
Now There's a chance of liberty
Now If we grasp what the future brings
Now Everyone could live like kings
There's a turning point in the world today
This is not the time to turn away
It's going to be a struggle if you choose the fight
It's going to be a struggle 'til we all unite
Girl I need your love tonight
I can't wait I must know
What's on your mind
The same thing's on mine
I can't wait any longer
Oh yeah 'cause I need you now
Right now
Right now oh yeah
They'll never take this night away
It's yours and mine until the day
It's all right for one night
We'll never have this chance again
So love me now and we'll pretend
It's all right for one night right now
I need your love tonight
I can't wait any longer
Cause the time has come
Oh yeah and I need you now
Girl we got no hiding place
We've got to keep up the pace
When the things you want
Well they're just out of reach
Til the time is right
It's got to be tonight
Why wait any longer
Still I smell like im inside you
It hurts to breath the air outside you
You share yourself
You change you fate
You seldom bleed a later date
Should never pull it out to late
That's when it starts to incubate
I never play your anger
I just want my life
But i could be your tapeworm
If you like
Who told you you could take me down
Why would you break me down
So we can bring this circle round
You think I should congratulate you
You feel as though i regulate you
You share yourself
you change you fate
You seldom bleed a later date
Should never pull it out to late
Thats when it starts to incubate
You wanna play my anger
You wanna take my life
I'm gonna be your tape worm
Now your mine
Who told you you could take me down
Why would you break me down
So we can bring this circle round
Who told you you could take you down
Why dont you break me down
So we can bring this circle round
I never thought you'd take me down
I never thought you'd break me down
Don't wanna bring this cicrle round
Don't wanna bring this cicrle round
Who told you you could take me down
Why would you break me down
So we can bring this cicrle round
Who told you you could take you down
Why would you breake me down
On the seamless cusp of drowning
When the drink has filled you up
A draft of fish looking down and looking dowdy
A K-knife distempered like a breath
You know wings may sprout along your torso
Then lift you up in the beyond
And way in down is way in nothing but more so
The face of the deceitful ones,
lies in the veins held inside
Slowly bleeding, impeding our lives,
until war has begun
Now it's time to display our aggression,
now it's time to explode
Now we build up a wall of retention,
now we hold our own
Seething all these words unsaid,
it's time to believe what's right
Open your eyes
They are the ones, the degradation
cheat, decieve and lie
Contrive the end of us all,
retribution is now, vengeance is now
They are the one's,
the degradation
Guns, guns, guns!
Guns, guns, guns!
Looks like fun, doesn't it?
Well, rocking and rolling on full auto is a lot of fun.
"we felt the women had been ignored"
"I, I like the, the feeling of, of the machine gun in my hands"
(Aaahhh.)
"you know, I, I
like the, the feeling of, of the machine gun in my
hands"
"you know, I, I like the, the feeling of, of the machine gun in my

(Aaahhh)
"You know, I, I like the, the feeling of, of the machine gun in my

"the feeling of, of the machine gun i
n my hands" (here we go, 30
rounds"
"the women had been ignored"
"I like the, the feeling of, of the machine gun in my hands"
(Aaahhh)
"got to be an addiction!"
"you know, I, I like the, the feeling of, of the machine gun in my
hands ... got to be an addiction with me!" (Aaahhhh... nothin' like it!)
Hey, beautiful, beautiful! Last one got 'em!
"30 rounds in one and a half seconds! Real firepower..."
"we felt the women had been ignored ... they'd been kept ignorant
and, uh, afraid of firearms, when they're no more difficult to operate than
a household appliance"
Hi! I'm Candy Jo, and I'm shooting the Ingram M-10, or the Mac-10!
GUNS.
This gun is one of the most well-known machine guns in the world,
(GUNS.) not only because it has been featured in numerous Hollywood movies,
(GUNS.) but also because it has derived underworld popularity. (GUNS.)
The Mac-10 is the weapon of choice because of its concealability. (GUNS.)
With this gun, even I could stop most of the bad guys out there.
GUNS.
As you
can see, this gun is really fast! (GUNS.) It fires a 9
millimeter round at a rate of 1200 rounds per minute! (GUNS.) That's, like,
20 shots per second! (GUNS.)
Not only that, it weighs just six and a quarter pounds, and it's
only ten and a half inches long. (GUNS.)
Hello, my name is Julie, and this is the M-16. (GUNS.)
I'm shooting the MPK submachine gun. It's made in Germany, (GUNS.)
The MP stands for Machine Pistol. (THIS is a real gun.) This gun fires a 9
millimeter cartridge at a rate of 550 rounds per minute. (GUNS.) That's
close to 10 rounds per second!
("they're no more difficult to operate than
a household appliance")
What surprises me is how easy this gun is to handle. (GUNS.) I
guess that's what makes it so much fun! (GUNS.)
The barrel on th
e MPK is six inches long, and I'm shooting it with
a 30-round magazine. (GUNS.) It weighs just six and a half pounds, (GUNS.)
and has a clever folding wire stock. (GUNS.) Those Germans really know how
to make a machine gun! (GUNS.)
Now THIS is a real gun.
Not one of those wimpy submachine guns.
I mean, I've never fired a gun before in my life! (GUNS.) But let
me tell you, once I got that machine gun in my hands, there was no stopping
me! (GUNS.) It's a blast! I love it! (What a blast!)
It's a blast!
s a blast!
It's a blast!
("Whew, THAT was a blast...")
"Well, we started out telling a little history, y'know, with a
little music like 'Annie get Your Gun' and a pioneer-dressed woman... and
the story line developing through the, um, the dance hall girl who had
to... protect herself in various ways... all of these having various
concealed firearms... then into the contemporary business woman in a
business suit... uh, the recreational woman... a police officer... (we know
criminals will always get guns) the, uh, security guard... and finishing
("That's enough overdramatics. Give me that gun before someone gets hurt.
Stand by...")
with, uh, the beach woman clad in a bikini."
("Stand by...")
"Okay, alright, stop right there.
("Stand by...")
Where do you
conceal the gun in a bikini?"
("Stand by...")
But what do you expect? This is my first time ever firin' a gun,
(Yeah!) much less a machine gun! (Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!) (GUNS. GUNS.)
Hi there! My name is Lisa, and this is the H & K G-3. (This is
fun!) The G-3 fires a 716 round at 550 rounds per minute. (GUNS.) This gun
really packs a punch! Wow! (Lot of kick to that, I'll tell ya)
"As demonstrated in the fashion show, even when the firearm was,
uh... exhibited, about 90% of the people never even saw it, or where it
was. They just saw it appear."
"Now where else did you find places to conceal deadly weapons?"
("Oh, there's Conrad General over there, let's say hello to Conrad General,
hello, Conrad General!")
"Firearms."
"Okay..."
"There are lots of deadl
y weapons; we're only dealing with
firearms."
"Okay."
"We're taking this from a defensive posture. (You go on about
your business, you see?) Uh, ankle holsters, there were garter belt
holsters, uh, midriff holsters, which are not unlike a tank top, and a
holster sewn into that, it fits, uh, underneath the breast area..."
Hello, I'm Tish. I'm shooting the Thompson submachine gun (GUNS.)
Hi, how are ya? I'm Denise, from San Diego, California, and I'm
gonna show you how to shoot the AK-47 automatic rifle, (GUNS.) the standard
issue to the Soviet Bloc Army, I might add! (It's a BIG gun!)
This gun weighs nine pounds, seven ounces, and fires 600 rounds per
minute. (GUNS.)
The fifty round drum is a lot of fun, because you can just shoot,
and just keep on shooting! (GUNS. GUNS. GUNS. GUNS.)
(Whew! Blew the other window out!)
".have the shoulder holster, then the standard hip holster, and
uh, waistband holsters..."
"The horizontal shoulder holster was the perfect accessory for the
businesswoman of the 80's."
(Yeah!)
"There ya go."
"What about ball gowns?"
(Yeah!)
My name is Adrian. How are you doing today? (GUNS.)
I'm shooting the world-famous Uzi submachine gun. (GUNS.)
I can just imagine stopping a group of terrorists in their tracks with this
magnificent weapon. (GUNS.)
The Uzi is a bit heavy at seven and a half pounds, (GUNS. GUNS.)
but. that gives it some heft and something to hang on to! (GUNS. GUNS.)
There's something about having a gun in your hands, and being able to
control it, (GUNS.) I don't know what it is, but all the girls talked about
it...
(Anytime YOU want to go shooting, just give me a call)
"What's next?"
I really don't know anything about guns, but when the producer said
I was going to be shooting the Uzi, I immediately recognized it as the gun
the Presidential Secret Service men carry under their coats!
"What's next? Do the firearms themselves come in, uh, fashion
colors?"
"Well, believe it or not..."
*bang* *bang* *bang*
Hello, am I on?
(oh, no)
We're here at the Tra
demark, the motorcade is coming by here, (oh,

He has fired a shot... he still has the gun, the gun is pointed at

His hand is frozen.

Get the gun!

Thoughts of failure
Thoughts of success
Truth denied
Secrets confessed
Emotional obsessions
Material possessions
All that have
All that have not
Take what you can get
Give me what you got
You don't really need it
You just can't live without it
You want it now
You just can't wait
You don't care how
'Til it's too late
Just a little more than all the rest
You want the latest greatest of the biggest best
To stand upon the highest
For yours to be the brightest
All that you make
All that you possess
It's a distraction
Or it's a mess
You feel there's something missing...

It's just a lack of patience
Instant gratification
Just a little bit of everything
As long as it is hip and fresh and happening
Your infatuation
Mass commercialization
You want it now
You just can't wait
You don't care how
'Til it's too late
Just a little more than all the rest
You want the latest greatest of the biggest best
It's just a lack of patience
Instant gratification
Find the strength inside yourself
To leave it all behind
Leave it on the shelf
Resisting the temptation
Instant gratification
Producing and consuming
Newer and improving
One of a kind and special
Shallow and superficial
Do nothing to upset it
Only if you let it
Any way that you can get it
There was a time
There was a line
There was a mountain in our hands
And it felt fine
Committing crimes
Like six foot wings about to spread
Lifting your soul
But you dug a hole
And had a funeral instead - how stupid
Now everyone's infected
Now everyone's like you
Now everyone's rejectin'
Or at least they say they do
Now everyone's infected
Now everyone's like you
Now they're runnin' and they're hidin'
Or at least they're tryin' to
You set me free
You made me see
You made me come to my own house and rescue thee
But honestly - It's been a long time since we laughed about it all
Heading for the fall
Say are you waitin' for a start - get goin'
Now everyone's infected
Now everyone's like you
Now everyone's rejectin'
Or at least they say they do
Now everyone's infected
Now everyone's like you
Now they're runnin' and they're hidin'
Your mouth is red, I'm picturing it in my head
I'm picturing you smile at me
I want you to be with me now
Your hair is brown, I'm picturing it hanging down
I'm picturing it falling 'round those big brown eyes
I wanna be with you now
You're much more that this, a spiritual bliss
No matter who I'm with, I miss you
Your magnetism breathes through the moonlit trees
It's in the quiet breeze that's circling me now
Your face is bright, I'm picturing it every night
I'm picturing you when I sleep
I can keep you with me that way
And your heart is mine, I think about you all the time
I can hear you say to me that you wanna be with me
You're much more that this, a spiritual bliss
No matter who I'm with, I miss you
Your magnetism breathes through the moonlit trees
Tell me what's going on - I don't remember feeling like this,
ever in my life and we haven't even kiss,
all we do is hold hands and hang out,
and suddenly I see it like: Boom, bang, wow,
and you tell me that I'm crazy and I might be,
but c'mon girl, that's why you like me,
isn't it? Well I know why I'm into you,
easy baby - Every single thing you do,
can't get you out my head - but it's okay,
I think I like it that - don't go (stay)
Maybe it is because I'm older this time,
but I think it's because you're fine.
Before I met you love was just a game (just a game)
felt all the girls I met were all the same, (all the same)
I played along, but never felt the way- i do
when i look at you - my baby now I see.
I think I see it
I think I get it,
I think I understand
I think I'm ready
I wanna be you man
I think I get it,
I think I understand
I think I'm ready
I wanna be you man.
You're drop dead gordeus - flawless
you could take the hardest man and turn him into the softest,
blessed with ya' soft lips - and your sweet touch
I can't take it girl - you to much
and you så fine (Damn she is so fine)
bright like sunshine (bright like sunshine)
and you be driven me crazy,
what I wouldn't do just to make you my lady,
anything you just gotta tell me baby,
I want "Yes" not "no" not "maybe"
I'm gone' get you - it's a matter of time
you're beautiful - girl you blow my mind
Before I met you love was just a game (just a game)
felt all the girls I met were all the same, (all the same)
I played along, but never felt the way- i do
when i look at you - my baby now I see.
I think I get it,
I think I understand
I think I'm ready
I wanna be you man
I think I get it,
I think I understand
I think I'm ready
I wanna be you man.
Falling in love,
was something in the movies,
falling in love,
was something in a song,
(but) this feels so real
something about you and me
that's can't be wrong.
I think I see it
I think I get it,
I think I understand
I think I'm ready
I wanna be you man
I think I get it,
I think I understand
I think I'm ready
[Intro:]
Welcome back... to nothing you've ever seen before
[Laughs] This is Now
[Verse:]
Uh, life is just a lesson, lesson what's the message
Clearly my direction shall surface without a compass,
so honest
My opponents are next, no contender
Sensor foul lingo as I encourage the youth, my truth
No further detail, music center my email
I'm addicted to retail, ladies that push a CL
Envious of my motion, hands up, I'm roller coasting
We making it while they hoping we deter, No sir
Eyes on the prize while they deny the admiration
While I'm adjacent, the hardwood floors they fast
breaking
The potency of my lyrics, leaving them hearing spirit
They rapping so incoherent, apparently it's apparent
But how we not contenders when, you feel it's unanimous
You wanna be Drizzy Drake but you same as a cannibus
Analyst, I know the game but learning as I entertain
VA is where I'm from cough up a lung minus the
cigarettes
I'm now (I'm now)
Uh I bet they know me now
I'm tryna see the top but we starting from the ground
And now (and now)
I'm feeling the pressure like that last college
semester
Real world such a stressor
And now I'm eating sushi, now bitches tryna do me
And niggas talking to me, you would think they never
knew me
And now I'm in discussions, discussions within
communities
Started as a dream, but they tryna Martin Luther me
All about this truancy, subliminals is cool with me
Now it's about the Board, that's the label fuck the
scrutiny
No suit for me, no shirt and tie
Before the casket, or at least until I make a classic
Even after all the work you’ve done
You’ll never ever get to have the one
The one who dances underneath the sun, underneath the sun
Charming jokes rolling straight from neath her tongue
Belonging to another hand
Sing-songing words for another man
You try to wash her sins off with the sand, sins off with the sand
As she drowns you in the palm of her righteous hand
Take a good look right now
Take a good look right now
You’re hurting from love
Yet your learning from love
Now, Now, Now
Now, Now, Now
You’ve got a map all ready and a map all made
Your map is ready and your sails are splayed
Yet your stuck at bay, your stuck at bay,
at bay today
You give an honest little try
Just an honest little try
To cast your anchor
To the sky
Belonging to another man
Sing-songing words she might understand
You try to wash her sins off with the sand, sins off with the sand
hey, this is why im here to stay
an i remeber what you did to me
you took me apart
you broke ma heart
heyy yeahh
i wont forgot the things you said

an NOW! you go around playin these games
thinkin your messin wid ma brain
got ma hand on the mirror an sooner or later
the truth is gonna come out ohh
Were you sorry I was gone
I made a sacrifice of all that was nice
Now I haven't got the one I want
But can't you see, can't you see it wasn't me
I never knew what I was going to do
Or what it'd do to you
Well now I know that I wanted you to be with me
But I was stupid, I was foolish, I was young and didn't know what I was doing to you
You started crying, I broke down, I thought you didn't care but now I want you again
I don't know why I left, but I know I'm alone
What I see, what I know over there, why'd you go? I don't want to know
You're talking to someone who's not me and I don't like it cause I don't have to
You moved on so quickly, you didn't seem to cry, when I saw you going by
You didn't give me a second chance everyone needs one
To see what we did wrong, I can't learn from us when I'm gone
But I don't know what I'm going to do
were here to
bring the people and the music and the movement all together now
we see through
repetitive etiquette and the highly unoriginal
were here to
bring the people and the music and the movement all together now
they will lose
check it out now, check it out now
this is a necessary change from the grim simple and plain
gonna exercise that brain to break the chain pain is a part of gain
no need to explain
we innovate to generate an intricately interwoven tapestry
of musical and ethical epiphanies
the interest is minimal
im on an awsome mission with an angel
that can take it all the way to where the sun is
just like a runner loving running
tryina turn it into a simple symphony
simple sentiment adrenaline is coming back
im in the innercity, where i gotta be a superstar
id rather be a galaxy
but how you see is so dependent on the medicine the rhetoric
and how at any second you think you could sit on the brink of this
world is all asleep and i have no apologies
i breathe
keep my sight on what we ride on
let bygones be bygones
the migraines dont sidetrack
my final destination nothing rivals predetermination
to exterminate the germination
of a nation that accepts anything thats thrown in its fat face
cause when theres nothing left
theres no more point to the rat race
we dont waste a minute of the day
dont be offended what im saying
trying to send it all way to another stage
a creative alternator rated and greater
the crazy maniac mellodies end up all up in your face wait
success aint only based on self esteem
it takes a sense to differentiate between
whats yours and someone elses dreams
i felt the screams climbing up my cold spine
saying nows the time to put in all the energy
to get rid of the enemy... i said it so.

were here to
bring the people and the music and the movement all together now
they will lose
sick of the same old thing
free us and touch what we cant see
twist that knife and watch him bleed
lost inside its way too deep
someone choke me
help me breathe
run from mistakes
right in my face

And this time it's up to her, she's tired of waitin'
She only wants if she deserves, there's no escapin'
The fact that she's older and life's turnin' colder
She's findin' it hard to stay warm
After the stars fall down and there's nothing for wishin' on
After the goodbye sound and love leaves her alone
She picks herself up off the ground
She won't bow down, she's come too far to give up now
Her friends, all think it's so sad, she must be lonely
She cannot help sometimes but laugh, she knows they're only
Trying to help her but if they really knew her
They'd know she's comin' into her own
After the stars fall down and there's nothin' for wishin' on
After the goodbye sound and love leaves her alone
She picks herself up off the ground
She won't bow down, she's come too far to give up now
She's not sure just where she's goin'
She's not owin' nobody
She just wants the simple life
Where they all leave her alone
Now, now, now, now
Now, now, now, now
And now she's comin' into her own
After the stars fall down and there's nothin' for wishin' on
After the goodbye sound and love leaves her alone
She picks herself up off the ground
She won't bow down, she's come too far to give up
Tell me now
Do you want to
Temm me now
Will you wind up in a travelin band
Everything that you say
Do you want it to shine
And everything that you feel
Is gonna make it alright
Babys gonna take me to town
Babys gonna make me
Babys gonna take me to town
Babys gonna make me
Show me how
Like a tattoo
Feel it now
Do you wanna take a walk in the sand
Everything that you say
Do you want it to shine
And everything that you feel
Is gonna make it alright
Babys gonna take me to town
Babys gonna make me
Babys gonna take me to town
Babys gonna shake me
Babys gonna take me to town
Babys gonna make me
Babys gonna take me to town
Babys gonna make me
Babys gonna take me to town
Babys gonna make me
Babys gonna take me to town
