Ugh, there he go, that's John Doe
There he go, that's John Doe
There he go, that's John Doe
Balling on you bitches like I'm Rondo
[Chorus]
24's, John Doe
All gold, John Doe
Them boys dealing blow, they John Doe
Night work for the load, that's John Doe
I'm still balling like I'm Bo Diddley
Ugh I'm still balling like I'm Bo Diddley
Ugh I parked the Caddy in the living room
Just parked the Caddy in the living room
[Verse 1]
I brought a Benz and it's paid for
I brought a bitch that bitch paid for
I brought a stick and its made for
Welfare, yeah stick it in ya a-hole
Aye ho you know I got that A-1
Yayo and I'm quick to slang one
Jumping niggas like a chess piece
Spend a couple hundred dollars on my chest piece
Outta town niggas we call 'em fresh meat
He say he nettin me boy you must refresh me
Better miss me with the convo
Wanna know my name bitch, John Doe
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
I got a bitch who has a habit
Spending stacks on nice fabrics
That head great, that pussy lavish
I'm peeling collie greens that 30 carrots
Reporting live from my Rolls Royce
I'm ready to die and put that on my old boy
Count 1.5 I holla "Oh Lord"
When I'm on the jet know them choppers on board
Rims taller than a bulldozer
Everybody tucking pistols when we pulled over
Fresh up out the fest, salute my nigga Fanzo
Yea they asked my name but he told 'em John Doe
Lets do this one positively
This one goes out to me mislead
To preserve the youths of tomorrow
Today is the time to stop all the unnecessary blood shed
Life of a gangster is not sweet
And I'm coming to you straight from the streets
This could be a story about anybody
But let's call him John Doe
A rude boy get murder cops were quicker on the draw
Another youth get murder a victim of the law
Rude boy get murder cops were quicker on the draw
Another youth get murder a victim of the law
Johnny was wicked ragamuffin and raw
Pull off a robbery but the cops he never saw
He got surrounded and they crushed him like a straw
John Doe went out like that
No, no, no
He heard them coming but he didn't get to flee
Wanted by the cops was living like a refugee
Do no evil think no evil try it and you will see
Bad boy and law man don't gree
Wicker on the microphone that is where I get my vibe
Trying to hustle and make a doller ain't got no 9 to 5
watching my back when going home and trying to stay alive
Got to strive, got to strive, got to strive
Johnny was a gangster well ain't life a bitch
Robbing with his homies then they got ditched
Thought he was the man but he was rolling with a snitch
He died on thorazine
Lost life and any hopes
Laid him down on a bed of steel
Laid downtown at the city morgue
John Doe... a man haunted by his past
John Doe... his lost soul will never rest
He was raised as an orphan
Abuse victim as a child
Dreaming haunting memories
Made John Doe take his own life
John Doe... a man haunted by his past
John Doe... realize that you're dead
He who is victimized can never grasp
Never ever knowing what is love...
He was a bitter man an only son
Never ever knowing what is... love... no love
Take heed to my warning
Even though I might be wrong
Fulfill life full of love
Or you'll end up just like John
John Doe... a man haunted by his past
John Doe... his lost soul will never rest
John Doe... a man haunted by his past
John Doe... realize that you're dead
John Doe... John

without a name yet treated with respect. ritualistically sacrificed away, and so it goes. the frozen gaze, the flashing scalpel blade. as his skin comes peeling easily away. the room gets cold. but then i wonder, did he think about the future. can you tell me so? i just don't know. and now he's laying still in a room full of people all alone. a body bag is his new home. the smell of formalin is strong, it's strong. a hollow shell caught in a silent scream. trying to communicate that he was actually somebody. realize that one day we all die and the john doe on the table could have easily been me. but then i wonder, did he think about the future. can you tell me so? i just don't know. and now he's laying still in a room full of people all alone. a body bag is his new home. the smell of formalin is strong, it's strong
There was this wise man I once knew
Who lived down my street a block or 2
In a back alley where the autumn leaves blew
A simple man with a heart so true
John Doe was a quiet man, who kept to himself and lived off the land
He panned his living with a rusty tin can
Been living off the streets since Vietnam
When Johnny came marching home
From the Vietnam war he was alone
Slapped with a label, he hid his face, the nightmare of war
Was one he couldnæ° erase, when Johnny came marching home
(he said) I canæ° let go, I canæ° forget
25 years later, that smell I still remember
As I watched so many young men lose their lives, on that battlefield
To Vietnam they sent us barely, old enough they placed us
On the front lines in a land we had no placeå'e had no place!!!
On the day I left that battlefield, I might as well have died
Because nothing in my life this far, has ever felt quite right
And each and everyday I try to pick the pieces up
But the pieces never seem to fit, the pain becomes too much
It's hard to describe, so hard to relate, it's hard letting go
When you can't escape
To think that when we came home our country turned its back
And labeled us all murderers, spit on us, spit on us and laughed
He spoke with such convicting words, I felt like I was there
A simple frail and shattered soul, the soldier never dies he sang
I thought about how it must feel to watch all your friends die
There was this wise man I once knew
Who lived down my street a block or 2

A simple man with a heart so true
John Doe was a quiet man, who kept to himself and lived off the land

A simple frail and shattered soul, the soldier never dies he sang
I thought about how it must feel to watch all your friends die
So far away so far from home, fighting wars we had no place!
It's the middle of the day and we both have thrown a fit
The TV is on but neither one of us is watching it
Now your problem is every time my pager go off, I don't pay it no mind And my problem is every time the phone ring
You'll go get it and you'll run and hide
Now if its two people between us that don't exist
And we're both going to go on lying
Ain't nothing good about that in this thing, baby
We both guilty of the John Doe crime
Who was the guy that paged you?
I don't know
Who was the guy that waved at you?
I don't know
Who was the guy that called you?
I don't know
Who was the guy that I saw you with?
I don't know
How did you get some extra money?
I don't know
When I needed some you told me
I don't know
Is this love affair over?
I don't know
Tell me his name
John Doe
Yeah, I know this thing started out all good
But remember when you didn't have a dime I did what I could
Took a chance and put you on my account
Now you flossing some female showing the amount
That's why I trip on shit like your pager
All in my face blowing up and you'll get it later
And the reason I run in the room with the phone all the time
Because of you, I'm guilty of the John Doe crime
Now who was the girl that paged you?
Oh I don't know
Who was the girl that called you?
Oh I don't know
Who was the girl that waved at you?
Oh I don't know
Who was the girl I saw you with?
I don't know
How did you get some extra money?
Oh, I don't know
When I needed some you told me
Oh, I don't know
Is this affair over?
I don't know
Tell me her name
Damn, Jane Doe
Who was the guy that paged you?
I don't know
Who was the girl that called you?
Oh, I don't know
Who was the guy that waved at you?
I don't know
Who was the girl I saw you with?
I don't know
How did you get some extra money?
I don't know
When I needed some you told me
Oh, I don't know
Is this love affair over?
I don't know
Tell me his name
Damn, John Doe
Who was the guy that paged you?
I don't know
Who was the girl that called you?
Yo, it ain't nothin' new, just a change in the name
Sheist done came and changed the game unexplained
Ways for days show you how to wait for your pay
'Cause when Shade fuck up your sales, all your checks delay
And now niggas mad 'cause Shade can pull up in a Jag
Hands free, chaperone all gettin' the door
And I ain't even interested in stealing your whore
So why these niggas actin' like they wanna marry the floor?
Like they ain't seen me breeze past all the guards at the door
Like I'm just wearin' this jacket to be hot
I flash the juice card, man this shit ain't hard
And it's the same thing at the same spot, what's my name?
It's John Doe, 4-5's spittin' up outta the four door
No return fire 'cause they too slow
What's the dilly? 'Cause we kill for a living
We kill for a livin'
It's John Doe, 4-5's spittin' up outta the four door
No return fire 'cause they too slow
What's the dilly? 'Cause we kill for a living
We kill for a livin'
They wanna know why I keep it so simple
I see that they just don't get it like my Nextel signal
Sheist on some other shit, Centinella gutter shit
And cards on the table, you can hit me or split
And see now I fucked around and got Quik on the shit
So just imagine how many hips break when they dip
And all the excessive paper cuts from counting the grip
And how my legs hurt from humpin' back and forth in the whip
At only 35, coverage is a bitch on a six
And I ain't even got my first plaque yet
Sheist, will still run circles over niggas who want it
And we ain't even gotta make the bets yet, nigga what's my name?
It's John Doe, 4-5's spittin' up outta the four door
No return fire 'cause they too slow
What's the dilly? 'Cause we kill for a living
We kill for a livin'
It's John Doe, 4-5's spittin' up outta the four door
No return fire 'cause they too slow
What's the dilly? 'Cause we kill for a living
We kill for a livin'
Throat-choke a hoe, Big Giggolo
Pimp the world, handcuff your hoe
Twurk your girl, when I step into the atmosphere
Niggas strapped wit fear, uh!
Is he is what I said he is and all
When I pimp bitches all dick and balls
Shade Sheist nothin' nice, new to the game
Get your money homie, bitch what's my name?
Hey-hey! We gon' hit these niggas where it hurt
Put the worm in your mouth like a perch
When I'm cum boo you gon' need a cert
Bust one, jump in the Monte Carlo and skirt
Give 'em naps, give 'em dap, then I holla holla back
Hey nigga where you goin'? Boo I'm checkin' my traps
Y'all niggas done shitted and stepped back in it
I'll fuck a nigga up all I need is five minutes
Swift, and I pimp hoes like it's a gift
I got game so you know I'm 'The Answer like Allen I'
Got your whole style shook like 'Quilles or Kobe Bry'
While money multiply you haters ask why
No you can't stop the pimpin' the pimpin' is too fly
Runnin' game on yo wife while you out flossin' your ride
But she said, if you ain't busy, or close in the vicinity
Stop on by and come get the thighs
It's John Doe, 4-5's spittin' up outta the four door
No return fire 'cause they too slow
What's the dilly? 'Cause we kill for a living
We kill for a livin'
It's John Doe, 4-5's spittin' up outta the four door
No return fire 'cause they too slow
What's the dilly? 'Cause we kill for a living
I don't know that I ever knew you
I don't know that I ever knew you
But you say you can see right through me.
The moon is bright and the road is clear
The moon is bright and the road is clear
Did you just say the end is near?
You said you gave me all your kisses
You said you gave me all your kisses
Now you're fed up 'cause you feel kiss-less.
There's tune in my heart and blood in your eyes
There's tune in my heart and blood in your eyes
I wish we were the losing kind.
You are the hole in my head
I am the pain in your neck
You are the lump in my throat
I am the aching in your heart
We are tangled
We are stolen
We are living where things are hidden
You are something in my eye
And I am the shiver down your spine
You are on the lick of my lips
And I am on the tip of your tongue
We are tangled
We are stolen
We are buried up to our necks in sand
We are luck
We are ]fate
We are the feeling you get in the golden state
We are love
We are hate
We are the feeling I get when you walk away
.
Walk away
Well you are the dream in my nightmare
I am that falling sensation
You are not needles and pills
I am your hangover morning
We are tangled
We are stolen
We are living where things are hidden
We are luck
We are fate
We are the feeling you get in the golden state
We are love
We are hate
We are the feeling I get when you walk away
Walk away
Walk away
You are the hole in my head
You are the pain in your neck
You are the lump in my throat
Well I'm pressing on
Yes, I'm pressing on
Well I'm pressing on
To the higher calling of my Lord.
Many try to stop me, shake me up in my mind,
Say, "Prove to me that He is Lord, show me a sign."
What kind of sign they need when it all come from within,
When what's lost has been found, what's to come has
already been?
Well I'm pressing on
Yes, I'm pressing on
Well I'm pressing on
To the higher calling of my Lord.
Shake the dust off of your feet, don't look back.
Nothing now can hold you down, nothing that you lack.
Temptation's not an easy thing, Adam given the devil
reign
Because he sinned I got no choice, it run in my vein.
Well I'm pressing on
Yes, I'm pressing on
Well I'm pressing on
I dreamed I saw St. Augustine
Alive as you or me
Tearing through these quarters
In the utmost misery
With a blanket underneath his arm
And a coat of solid gold
Searching for the very souls
Whom already have been sold.
"Arise, arise", he cried so loud
With a voice without restraint
"Come out ye gifted kings and queens
And hear my sad complaint
No martyr is among ye now
Whom you can call your own
So go on your way accordingly
But know you're not alone".
I dreamed I saw St. Augustine
Alive with fiery breath
And I dreamed I was amongst the ones
That put him out to death
Oh, I awoke in anger
So alone and terrified
I put my fingers against the glass
Verse 1
I never did drink like you
But I held back your hair like a girlfriend would do
I told you how much I cared
you turned away with a laugh and a stare
Poetry crowded your face
froze as a smile skidded back into place
Chorus
Now lying & leaving and driving are leaking
out all seven holes in our heads.
We use every one to make everyone feel like
their feelings are only pretend.
A lazy, bitter end
Verse 2
Heavenly fallings from grace
You never knew your dad and I'm sorry for that
Love it or leave it with me
I'll drive it away in my car from the sea
Chorus
Now lying & leaving and driving are leaking
out all seven holes in our heads
We use every one to make everyone feel like
their feelings are only pretend
A lazy, bitter end
I brought you home too late
He's like Jekyll and Hyde a mad man mastermind
He doesn't know he does it but he does it all the time
A male medusa he'll turn you all to stone
With one look and one whiff of his cheap cologne
He'll make believe you're his friend and then he'll turn around
He'll whisper bad about you so you can't hear a sound
He'd even sell his brothers soul to be a rock and roll star
To get chicks and write hits on his signature guitar
I really like him though
Oh–a-oh-a-oh
I really like him though
Oh–a-oh-a-oh
My little John Doe
Oh–a-oh-a-oh
He wears his pants so tight that I can't sleep at night
He's got 5 to 10 girlfriends at any givin time
But I don't really care as long as sometimes he's mine
I thought the 80's were over but I guess I was wrong
Cause his glam rock hair made me write this song
I really like him though
Oh–a-oh-a-oh
I really like him though
Oh–a-oh-a-oh
My little John Doe
Oh–a-oh-a-oh
Nothing to hide.
Nothing to lose.
The little things that sicken me and are eating at my youth.
I've held my ghosts at bay and smiled everyday
but heavens says won't shine on me again,
Just like they shined on me before.
I can't be like that boy in chains
that was once adored.
Apprehensive me.
Independence me.
I've spoiled every single thing
and running from the scene.
It's sad for me to say
at every show
on every stage
pride overlooked
and out of blown P.A.s
to people I will never meet.
I spill my guts.
Why can't these words free me.
Never will I find my way back home.
All the patience that I wasted. . .
Dreams I only got a taste of.
All I thought would be.
Everything I never should have done, I did.
This is acceptance of the greatest things that will never happen.
So here I stand,
unable to be saved.
I'm paying prices for the things that I didn't say and it depresses me.
I've backed integrity but I'm finding brand new ways to channel energy.
I've seem hell along the way,
In every devastating blow
handed down to me.
I've seen sufferers like me
still fighting for their dreams
through battles obsolete.
I have seen all despairs can bring
heaven is unreachable
and happiness is fake
so much patience that I wasted...
Every dream I barely tasted.
All I thought I'd see.
Everything I never should have done, I did.
Now I'm waiting for the end.
To take away all of these wretched memories.
I have given all of me.
I gave you every fucking thing.
Listless, unbound.
I've been set free.
