Guy feat. 1 Life 2 Live
[Guy]:
Yeah uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, yeah
Yes! G-U-Y and I
Gotta get a piece of this pie
Gonna take you on a high
Do or die
Are you with it?
Cause you can be the one who can get it
And if I get money we can split it
If I gave you my life would you live it
Would you fit it?
Now who wanna be the freeloader
Who wanna be the shareholder
Who's gonna be the downloaders
When I download the **** on the block
All consumers just be ready to cop
Cause I'm ready to drop, **** be fifty a pop
You better let me know if you want it or not
Yo it's gonna be gone by the end of the day
Cause **** from Y2K
1 - We're talking 'bout the best
Take it to the wild, wild West
Talking about the dirty south
That's what I'm all about, no doubt
Take it to the East
You gotta go fast in the streets
Cause I'm living in the belly of the beast
I'm just trying to live in peace, roll out
Now we're rolling on the South side
With my true playas this is from the East side
Got my shorties in the back
Got my niggaz in the front
And my fifteen inch rims on my hoo ride
Now who rides, rolling through the ATL so don't trip
Plus you're about to get yourself in some ****
And you know we got your back
All the clubs are pack from front to back, the girls are phat
Booty banging like a budha sack
And when you're living in the ghetto
You gotta know when to let go
How to hold every dice roll
Or your platinum from your white gold
Plus the price is on your soul
And everyday's in vain
Shooting you're luck like a monopoly game
And everybody's looking for the fortune and fame
That's the name of this thang
Repeat 1
[1 Life 2 Live]:
Only the best like pushing black Bentley coupes
You ain't the best so that just can't be you
Only the best like coppin' a platinum piece
You ain't the best nigga **** cheap
Me, toxic, I split vintage
Everything you talk you know we been did
You kick one rap and you all winded
Your career real quick started and ended
We the elite means we the top of the line
Means we go straight in while you stopping in the line
Means I don't give a **** what you got in your rhymes
Means y'all get to going when I'm cocking my nine
When Teddy told me the cost, **** hit me hard
Pay me how many thousands for sixteen bars?
You wiling, you gon' regret that you started this mess
Got two g but will never be part of the best
Repeat 1
Just trying to live in peace yeah, yeah
You chose to take from the past
You want a game that's built to last
Cause love without affection
Is hate without the pain
Life is a connection
Separate from the brain
You chose to take from the past
Can't you see the pain in my eyes?
Can't you see the betrayal in disguise?
I can't live with all your lies again
I can't trust anything even you, my friend
You want to live in the past
You'll do anything
To make your pain last
Cause love without affection
Is hate without the pain
Life is a connection
Separate from the brain
You just take, from the past
Can't you see the pain in my eyes?
Can't you see the betrayal in disguise?
I can't live with all your lies again
I can't trust anything even you, my friend
(Run away, Go away)
Can't you see the pain in my eyes?
Can't you see the betrayal in disguise?
I can't live with all your lies again
I can't trust anything with you, my friend
Can't you see the pain in my eyes?
Can't you see the betrayal in disguise?
I can't live with all your lies again
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
I know I'm really young
And that my life has just begun
Cuz I'm the opposite of you
And you're the opposite of me
I've done all I can do
So would you do the same for me?
I'm getting stronger all the time
It's an uphill battle but I'll be fine
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you)
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
There's nothing I can say
And there's nothing I can do
To change the opposite in you
Can't change the opposite in me
Life is pretty strange
And yeah I think we can agree
I'm getting stronger all the time
It's an uphill battle but I'll be fine
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you)
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite too!)
Getting stronger all the time
It's an uphill battle but I'll be fine
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you)
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
(Insanity at it's finest. Fire starter, riot maker,
moon stricken, animal need, bad seed, untaimable beast)
”Everybody around me always think they know what's
going on inside my mind, they think I'm Mr. Nice Guy all the time.
How they say on Diary? You think you know, but you have no idea.”
[Chorus:]
K.C.M.O is with me
Must make mo (more) dough
We will be shaking your floor
Come against me
That’s a no no
Yo, cause I’m a Beast
I can smell your woman's rosy punani
on the dance floor all the way in VIP
I'm a rapper, I can snatch her,
and she will leave with me because of my stature.
Now, everybody move, everybody bounce.
Whoever the Nina choose, we about to pounce.
(work it out)
With the 151 and a bottle, I call Heff
will he let me hit this model in the grotto
I like all women, tall women, and small women.
Ya gotta let tech-ni tease your shakra.
Species release freaks, please the monster.
Petite beast, feast, these G’s will rock ya.
Handcuff a busta don’t trust her
Round these hustlas homie don’t be a sucka.
When your lover say tecca nina's a brother,
she's trying to say that I rushed her then crushed her.
[Chorus x2]
I'm about to get that money like a robbery,
Now I got it all my enemies wanna clobber me.
Squallery harder we need dollars comradery
the hotter the scholar be, the larger the lottery.
Need ten, twins, gotta succeed spend G's, Ben Franks
We cram G’s in banks, breathe said we win thanks
Hungry like the wolf indeed, but I give
money to my crooks in need, I live
In Sherman Oaks but from Kansas City,
I miss home, Cali is Business but man it's pretty.
I ain't lying y'all, Monster for money for mine y'all
if I wasn't getting money, I'd do time dog.
You'd never see the nine fall,
big house, wood floors,
maid cleaning the bitches with pine-sol
[Chorus x2]
Friend, this industry is no kin to me,
behold the flow of the century.
But they scared of me
rappers they don't compare to me.
Fair to be said that he dares to be sincerely a rarity.
Check the sound scan, look around man.
Wake up look at you Jacob, you in killer clown land.
Face paint and jugalettes with bubble butts
And we rock it twisted diddy women in the button ups.
Hands down we rock harder than Kiss,
but rap me Kutt and Krizz.
Can I get two stomps and a clap in this bitch
Nina shot to the top 'cause the plots to get rich.
Tell ya executives,
I'm next for this
Success it is.
Yet the best for Tech, this ain't
Baptist Pentecostal or Methodist..
This is the beast baby.
Out, I mean exodus.
(I'm in and I will destroy you. I am the beast)
Written by Holly Knight and Mike Chapman
I call you when I need you
And my heart's on fire
You'll come to me, come to me
Wild and wired
You come to me, give me everything I need
You bring a lifetime of promises
And a world of dreams
You speak the language of love
Like you know what it means
And it can't be wrong
Take my heart and make it strong
Cause you're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you said
Tear us apart
Baby I would rather be dead
Deep in your heart
I see the start
Of every night and every day
And in your eyes I get lost
I get washed away
Just as long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no better place
White boy get ready to do his thing's here
Uh...Uh...Uh...Uh...Uh...Uh
Here's a new jam for you to cling to
A funky rythm that you can swing to
Kid Rock that's me
And the party jumpin is what I'm for seeing
So just chill or I'll boot you
Get on me and I'll shoot you
I'm fresh to that there's no guessin
Rock the mic without any fessin
With your blessin
I will get stupid, you didn't know it
I thought you knew it
I'm the kid that comes exactin
With my ace the black man
To B Boys from the Midwest
Rock the shows cause were professionals
On the set night and day while the girls say
Upside Down
Can't you turn me inside out
And round and round
Upside Down
Can't you turn me inside out
And round and round
The bass drops and works its hardest
For Kid Rock the new young rap artist
Clockin paper cause I got soul
Comin at you from the Motor capital
Shakin booties
Not all the cuties
I'm too cool to be a little fruity
Drinkin forties every weekend
I'm the master who's always speakin
To some freak and if I freak her
It's at Red Roof Inn where we sleep cheaper
But off that topic got to get it
Super dope, extremely poetic
The K-I-D-R-O-C-Kin
I love girls that's how its layin
With these jammies
Fuck the grammies
All I care about is shaking fannies
And I have been doin it for a long time
But now I'm nineteen
And in my prime
Waxin booties everyday while the girls say
Upside Down
Can't you turn me inside out
And round and round
Upside Down
Can't you turn me inside out
And round and round
On the mic is solo
Cause I'm the Kid with all the dope lingos
Only rappin cause I don't sing dope
Create a jam that's fresh in your bingo
Lace up the Reebox
Comb the high top
Black dose with a little hip hop
And I style it with some uniqueness
You say I'm not fresh
But I could careless
One of a kind
When I rock the mic
And I'm the one that your girl is likin
Picture the girless women not lookin
Create a beat that is fully hookin
Cause when I get dumb
People have fun
Sisco save me the magnum
In a hell of a show I always display
While the girls say
Upside Down
Can't you turn me inside out
And round and round
Upside Down
Can't you turn me inside out
And round and round
Ooooo...ohhhhhh

It’s been a long, long fall
With nothing to intervene,
When gravity does its thing we start wondering what it’s for.
Stuck in a cold, dark, basement
You surely expected more
But all you can see these days is four walls and a floor.
Come up here, we’re making our way to the upside,
We’re gonna stay on the upside,
We trade our travels for a room with a view.
Come up here, we’re making our way to the upside,
A brand new day on the upside,
The future’s brighter than a sky full of blue.
It’s been a long, long fall,
The Adam who would be king,
When consequence does his thing we all want it like before.
Nowhere to go,
Lay low like a dumpster diver,
Like a submarine wreck,
Scraping the bottom deck,
Won’t you don’t you pray there’s something more
Come up here, we’re making our way to the upside,
We’re gonna stay on the upside
We trade our travels for a room with a view.
Come up here, we’re making our way to the upside,
A brand new day on the upside,
The future’s brighter than a sky full of blue.
What’s gonna hold us now?
Who’s gonna hold us down?
How’s it gonna hold us down?
Nothing’s gonna hold us.
Come up, we’ll make our way to the upside,
We’re here to stay on the upside
The future’s shining like a sky full of blue.
Come up here, we’re making our way to the upside,
We’re gonna stay on the upside
We trade our travels for a room with a view.
Come up here, we’re making our way to the upside,
A brand new day on the upside,
The future’s brighter than a sky full of blue.
Come up here, we’re making our way to the upside,
We’re gonna stay on the upside
Nigga I don't play boy, I'm not Hugh Heffner,
Bunnies in my mansion, and it ain't even Easter.
Drop it drop it low girl,
Futuristic Chris Brown, I can transform her.
I'm a fucking genious, Jimmy Neutron,
Rich nigga shit, grey poupon.
Beats: blazin them, fans: amazing them,
Water diamonds on my neck come and take a swim.
Guard your life with them, cuz you might drown,
No lifeguard guaranteed you going down.
Speaking to existence, nigga I'm the best,
Open my louis cases looking like a treasure chest.
You don't want beef so stay outta harms way,
Blow your legs off have you looking like a mermaid.
Runnin at the mouth shut you up like a suitcase,
Eat any rapper I'll have his ass soufleed.
All year 365, february to february,
The only place where success comes before work is inside the dictionary.
Niggas saying I'm gassed up, fuck you mean? Fuck gasoline,
Any rapper on any beat, I'll chop your head nigga gilitene.
Fake rappers dissin me like I would forget,
Niggas say they gettin money but it's counterfeit.
My name gigantic, I sink em, titanic,
S.O.D. gang all my haters now panic.
They thinking got damnit Soulja Boy's flow is Cajun,
I'm drawing on this beat do you get the illustration?
Everybody hate it,
I'm balling so hard I should be on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
Yea I navigate it, then escalade it,
Twitter king 2 million in your faces.
I'm saying my graces, I'm bout to eat all of ya,
Soulja Boy Tell Em I'm a one man orchestra.
Instructional videos on you tube,
So I can teach you how to do what I do.
Haters wanna knock me, but I'm not a damn door,
I got a million dollars cash laid across this damn floor.
Word around town they got money on my head,
Bitch I pull that fuckin chopper and they scramble like eggs.
Soulja Boy tell em that this shit is historical,
All the newspapers put this in your editorial.
Teach you niggas, swag tutorial,
Got a lot of haters, fuck it I want more of ya.
RIP all rappers, shout out to young memorial,
Don't ask me if I wanna fuck this, cuz that question is rhetorical.
I call you, when I need you my heart's on fire
You come to me, come to me, wild and wild
You come to me
Give me everything I need
Give me a lifetime of promises and a world of dreams
Speak the language of love like you know what it means
And it can't be wrong, take my heart
And make it strong, baby
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby, I would rather be dead
In your heart I see the start of every night and every day
In your eyes, I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no better place
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Oh, tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
Each time you leave me I start losing control
You're walking away with my heart and my soul
I can feel you even when I'm alone
Oh, baby, don't let go
Oh, you're the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Oh, tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
You're the best
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Oh, tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
Oh, you're the best
You're better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I ever met
Back when I was young
When I was just a kid
The foolish things we done
The secrets that we hid
Out on our playground
Where I first touched your lips
Our first taste of love
Upon our fingertips
Now, I go back in time
To a place they call the past
Where dreams are make believe
And love can really last
Sometimes, it's all so real
And it's always way too fast
This crazy world we live in
The past
Now, I go back in time
To a place they call the past
Where dreams are make believe
And love can really last
Sometimes, it's all so real
And it's always way too fast
This crazy world we live in
Eyed it, dried it, untied it
Chilled it, spilled it, refilled it
Taste it, traced it, erased it
He's my post to lean on
And I just cut him down
So I'm out to land on somethin'
Hopefully a boy will come to me at the ground
Eyed it, dried it, untied it
Chilled it, spilled it, refilled it
Taste it, trace it, erased it
He's my post to lean on
And I just cut him down
So I'm out to land on somethin'
Hopefully a boy will come to me at the ground
He's my post to lean on
And I just cut him down
So I'm out to land on somethin'
Hopefully a boy will come to me at the ground
Rolling through the city sprawl
On a late night train
The moon will survive us all
Waiting for a friend to call
I'm adrift again
I search for nothing at all
Modern life corrodes us all
You know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call
Let the past come back to rescue you
Seduced by a friendly fire
I just watch the window
Machines couldn't take me higher
Don't wanna to be a lonely liar
With a living tombstone
Your warmth fills my desire
Modern life corrodes us all
You know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call
Let the past come back to rescue you
I wake up to the morning star
Embraced by false phosphorescence
My dreams stay where they are
I don't know where to start
Alone and lost and guessing
Revealed by an open heart
Modern life corrodes us all
You know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call
You know what it'll do
Memory detains it all
Your know that it's true
Give yourself a wake-up call
Let the past come back to rescue you
The past come back to rescue you
The past come back to rescue you
We want fun we wanna run
We want fun we gotta run
We want fun get out among the hottest clubs and find some love
Billions of people have heard of me and everyone knows
the sun rises in the East.
Not too nice, not too sweet, no-one even talks to me.
I shake the leaves right off the trees. I'm the bee's greasy knees.
I shake 'em, I break 'em, I drop 'em from eight miles high, alright
In the past my fate was cast, my social life was limited to Halloween
and New Years Eve, monotony was killing me, approaching schizophrenia.
I hit the hot spots every night and ...
for the first time in my life the bouncers would greet me,
the doormen would escort me, managers adored me.
Photographers would follow me begging for a smile;
"Beast, over here, Beast!" "Here, Beast!" The hat check always said to me,
"Hiya B, whatcha doin' later?"
We want fun we gotta run
If you need fun get out and run
You need fun for feeling fine
We want fun for feeling fine and find the one ...
Now I'm not bragging. Heaven knows, I spend no more nights alone.
Lucky me, I'm ten foot three and freaky.
My picture's been reprinted, interviews requested one hundred times a week.
Believe it, I'm not talking through my teeth .....
Are you sure you got it, I mean it, to prove it I'm in the news.
It's true, it's true, check it out, check it out
He wants her love
She wants love
I take action, get relief, pick a partner, pick a piece, get satisfaction
I am the Beast, I am the Beast
She wants fun
He wants her love
I get satisfaction - I pick up my feet.
I'm the centre of attraction by staying off the streets
And I want love, get some funk and get some fun
Punks like fun, punks like funk

that's falling from my eyes
lays a soul I've left behind
the edge of sorrow was reached but now I'm fine
I've filled the hole I had inside
I'll pray it doesn't scream my name
so I light a flame and let it breathe
the air that kills the shame
I'm up
I'm down
like a rollercoaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
a risky morning
I feel like I'm alive
I can't believe I've made it through this time
the edge of sorrow I lived in for some time
(lived in for some time)
has left the hole I have inside
The burden is I try my hate
was the last thing I ever felt
or thought I could escape
I'm up
I'm down
like a rollercoaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
You let me in then broke me down
the difference is this time around
I will not let you see me try
I'm up
I'm down
like a rollercoaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
Erased the past again now
Erased the past again
Beneath the water
I’ve lost my limits at minus thousand by Fahrenheit.
By that time you approached the point where you just
feel alright.
I keep on growing colder as I slip and slide down the
scale to my
Darkest side where I will find nothing but suicide.
Who knows the cost of my every breath?
I know, but I can’t explain it, mortal!
because you’re so fucking deaf! Shit!
Who knows how much it takes to live
And loose ten thousand times more than I can give.
A cosmic void is all that I receive.
So what?
What the fuck do you want from me?
So what?
What the fuck do you expect from me?
You are the fraud and guilty,
I am on end – don’t make a
Beast from me,
Let me be
A circumstantial martyr,
A severe-hearted warder.
Don’t you make
A beast from me.
My love is unselfish, my hate is sincere,
But my patience grows thinner year after year.
I can’t afford a further sacrifice,
Because I stand to lose in spite of my demise.
I don’t belong to you…
I don’t belong to you!
So what?
What the fuck do you want from me?
So what?
What the fuck do you wait from me?
You are the fraud and guilty,
I am on end – don’t make a
Beast from me,
Let me be
A circumstantial martyr,
A severe-hearted warder.
Don’t you make
A beast from me.
You risk your life and my own,
You suffer as you make a
Beast from me.
Don’t you see?
(Don’t you see?)
You don’t know what you’re facing,
Don’t know what you’re embracing.
Don’t you feel
The danger in me?
(danger in me!)
You can’t reach the deep of me
And I can’t fill your vacancy.
The more I suffer the more you want me to strive…
The more I struggle the more you claim my life… x2
You are the fraud and guilty,
I am on end – don’t make a
Beast from me,
Let me be
A circumstantial martyr,
A severe-hearted warder.
Don’t you make
A beast from me.
You risk your life and my own,
You suffer as you make a
Beast from me.
Don’t you see?
You don’t know what you’re facing,
Don’t know what you’re embracing.
Don’t you feel
The danger in me?
Hypocrite! You need a fucking slave instead of me!
Don’t you feel the danger in me? X2
The danger in me x6
The prince of darkness, the man possessed,
Ten horns arise, the seven heads.
The ancient serpent, the ancient name,
The fallen angel crawls in shame.
The dark messiah, the lawless one,
The face of tyranny is born the son.
Behold the nail, the sentence of death,
And Jesus wept, it is manifest.
And the beast alive, and its hour come,
Crawling towards the city to be born again.
The new world order, the black abyss,
The reign of terror, the saviour's kiss,
The final solution is seven years.
The great delusion, behold the tears.
The virus parasite feeding in bondage,
The rings of flesh in its teeth breathing carnage.
The wall of disease arises, the living hell.
The desperate nightmare is becoming real.
And the critical hour has arrived, in the sacred land
To the nation, revelation is at hand.
And the little horn is rising, rising to stand.
In this horn are eyes lie the eyes of a man.
Eyed it, dried it, untied it.
Chilled it, spilled it, refilled it.
Paste it, traced it, erased it.
She's my Post to Lean on,
And I just cut her down.
So I'm out to land on somethin'
Hopefully a girl will come to me at the ground.
Eyed it, dried it, untied it.
Chilled it, spilled it, refilled it.
Paste it, traced it, erased it.
She's my post to lean on,
and I just cut her down.
So I'm out to land on somethin'
Hopefully a girl will come to me at the ground.
She's my post to lean on,
and I just cut her down.
So I'm out to land on somethin'
Keep it hood...
[Chorus:]
Always seems to be, something in the past, won't let me go
Always seems to be, something in the past, won't let me live
[Verse 1:]
Two niggas came together
Trying to get their game together
Separate and change directions
Separating chain selections
Now they in separate sections
Always used to ride together
Slide and get high together
Used to always make it happen
One was stuntin, one was clappin
Now they both feeling trapped and
Used to bang Eric Clapton
Everyday in every way
Smoking each and everyday
Dumped to Curtis Mayfield on a load of Layla Hathaway
This is what I have to say
I remember... you don't stay down with me, but fuck it
Whatever's gonna be, just let it be, don't just say nothing
Soon as I do something for me to get a little further
Everybody wanna trip like I didn't deserve it
Now when I see niggas like two or three years later
They still ain't got over the fact that I'm making some paper
Stop tripping boy what's done ain't no changing up
Glocks spitting boy it's done ain't no changing up
All over the past
[Chorus:]
[Verse 2:]
Nigga, let the past go
Stop tripping nigga, before a nigga have to start chipping niggas
Before a nigga have to get to chipping niggas,
Get to busting niggas, like fuck them niggas
In the middle of the warzone it happens
All the games is over, full metal jackets
I ain't tripping y'all, all about the cash
That's all a nigga 'bout, from the inside to out
I run amok nigga, don't give a fuck nigga
Suge and Kurupt nigga, don't give a fuck nigga
I roll the streets nigga, cock back the heat nigga
Y'all niggas weak nigga, nickels spreading leak niggas
You know about Gotti, run up on anyone
You helped create me nigga, stop trying to quake me nigga
I'm 'bout to toss fire, since I ain't a dog
Reborn to rebirth of a pure hog
Fuck the past nigga!
[Chorus]
[Over Chorus:]
Right after that
Something about the past nigga
You know... shit...
Know what I'm saying
It's like they told me, it's natural
Know what I mean? roll with niggas for so long
You know, but when I go and do something for myself
You know, shit... I used to smash for y'all
Something about that past man
Niggas don't know how to let shit go, just roll
Know what I mean?
You gotta love me for who I am
Fuck the past (my ups and down)
If it's not positive nigga, fuck the past
Know what I'm saying, nigga (my rights and my wrongs)
Mark Sparks these niggas is bitches
Sup Dave
Oh man, tell these niggas man
Always seems to be, in the past nigga, won't let me live, let me live
you can hear the thunder
long before the storm,
but you can't hear the lion when he stalks his prey
he's moving like a shadow
creeping up on you
and like a siren's call he's gonna have his way
you'd better run, forget your pride
don't make a stand, just step aside
if you don't have what it takes
don't try to play you'll lose your stakes
remember this at least
it's the nature of the beast
it's the nature of the beast
you won't hear a footstep
comin' up on you
movin' like a snake he's in complete control
this killer knows his business
he is the predator
you are his only target, you're his only goal
what will you say what will you do?
your wildest nightmare's comin' true
there is nothing you can say
no way to change, he won't delay
this cain will have his feast
it's the nature of the beast
it's the nature of the beast
if you play you're bound to lose
don't roll the dice, don't turn the screws
just listen to the priest
it's the nature of the beast
it's the nature of the beast
it's the nature of the beast
(music by Walsh/Acres, lyrics by Reigel)
(solo: Outlaw)
stripped of all possessions
collected through time
haunting past constant thinking
reflections of memories
looking for reasons
must live for reality
absorb the knowledge
gaining strength through preception
unknown powers now revealed
mind capabilities growing
future uncertain
fate will take you there
transformation to oneself
newday will come
strive for dreams
reconstruction through time
(solo: Outlaw)
depression soon will overcome
time for self presorvation
others left behind
no time wasted
opening eyes
seeing what must be done
destiny unfolds travels abroad
(solo: Outlaw)
feeling of guilt
obey your thoughts
quest for answers
hidden in sadness
path leads forward
new millenium
show the truth
life has just begun
And I sing songs about the past.
How I was raised and I was thrown out on my ass,
Cause I didn't care.
About going to school.
And I saw the look in her eyes.
My mother nearly cried when I had told her that I had wanted to go,
Just to prove them wrong.
I've been smoking cigarettes since I was only fourteen,
Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me.
And I sing songs about my friends.
The way we grew up, and all the lose ends we used to laugh,
Cause we didn't give a damn.
And I saw the look in my brother's eyes,
When I told him I was leaving he couldn't help but despise me.
He's wanted out his whole life.
I've been smoking the green since I was merely sixteen,
Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me.
And I sing songs about the past.
I plead for relief,
This town won't receive
All the things that I want.
The things that I need.
And I'll beg and I'll beg.
I'm down on my knees.
Mama, oh mama,
Let me please leave
I plead for relief.
This town won't receive,
All the things that I want.
The things that I need.
The prey of the beast screamed
bloody murder
the line is so fine between
hoping and hurting
former believers they beg for release
as love looking down on them
Smiles and picks his teeth
trapped in between heaven and hell
he knows all the secrets
and don't want to tell
there's nowhere to run and there's
nowhere to hide
love knows you all too well
He will find you
Love is the ghost haunting your head
love is the killer you thought
was your friend
love is the creature who lives
in the dark
sneaks up, will stick you
and painfully pick you apart
Love is a poet, love sings the songs
pointing his finger you follow along
voices are calling,
the monster wants out of you
paws you and claws you, you try not to fall
Love is the leech, sucking you up
love is a vampire, drunk on your blood
love is the beast that will
tear out your heart
hungrily lick it and
painfully pick it apart
(Repeats)
Love is a ghost, haunting your head
love is the killer you thought
was your friend
Love is the teacher who lives in the dark
sneak up and stick you
I don't even know if I can cry
been so long it feels like I ran dry
something in your eyes tonight
looked into my soul
saw the years of breaking down had taken it's toll
so I'm leaning on you now into the night
don't let go
don't let go
don't wanna let you go
now I'm on the rocks I see your light
I don't need my wings to take this flight
I know I can fly
nothing happens on it's own
fate is just a word
you make me a better man does that sound absurd
and you look into my eyes and softly say
don't let go
don't let go
don't wanna let u go
you are the light in me
pull me in and set me free
you always let me know
hold me tight and don't let go
don't let go
don't let go
don't let go
[Intro: Sauce Money + Ras Kass + Sheek Louch]
[S] What we going to do right we going to start this mother fucker of in

[R] (West side)
[Verse One: Sauce Money]
I spit solely for the guacemole
Come through and make a rapper do a back flip rock a rolly and
Reach for my glock slowly if you try to interfere on how I stack chips
I take chicks to the tele just a happy fan
Now she wanna get a glimpse of my magic hand
She said she like the way it stretch out like plastic man
Sauce money tell me where would you have it land
Told shorty look I got to get back to my grands
Hurry up I am in the rush like jackie chan
Married woman, single or engaged, hood rats still got them to creep
Now we rock them to sleep
Because we got the best songs that pesese charm
Besides if you tricky you just chance head strong
Rappers better respect dawns and ex-cons
and keep your vest on this is how we speak with teflon
[Verse Two: Sheek Louch]
Aiyyo it's Sheek Louch nigga and I will pop till y'all gone
Only thing I knew niggaz popped and it's gone
And y'all might pop shit but that's about it
What you know about guns that come out my sleeve
And bullets that fly around your head like bee's
That will hit you and leave holes the size of pee's jes
When I flow it's like tae-kwon-doe
On some do-jo and it just a hobby
How fuck Daniel-san going to beat Mr. Miyagi
Wax on wax off with a knock out or better
I leave three threw the e of your enyce sweater
What pop shit and I am first day delivery
Straight threw your chest pope on your block
In a big brown truck like I am ups
And I don't know about y'all that re-up real small
You don't spend more then a thousand at the mall
If you owe sheek pay me I don't care how you hit me
It don't race me if your car don't cost more then fifty
I'm that cat that threatens on y'all mc's
With a devil flow that will pop your rosary beeds
I from where bitches that know about cooking up coke
Bring ever gram back and keep heat by the twat
That will blend in perfect in a deminacan spot
Now it's me that nigga that shine like glitter
And I must say dogg I am a hell of a spitter
We finish things y'all hell of a quiters
[Verse Three: Ras Kass]
I spit from the genitals bitch, leave 'em masculine skinch
Got niggaz panackin, petro and penanican flinch
Grew a mechanical inch the root of all evil
Green theft and green spray with a tech but we can't all eat thow
Cause y'all fethal, we run lethal, homicide victims of a fed fax and pete gold
Sugar nobody is ever equal [why] cause the more we make
the more we taking from other people
Livin in puerto rico padarin LAX to JFK
At baggage claim with three hoes like Santa's day
My third eye be the equivilant to the album red pie
so I give you a piece of my mind, just multiply times infinite
Spiritual elevate so I high commite drive bye's while I sky dive
Sip on my time perform shit only concieved in sci-fi so why try test
It's boom bye bye Mr. Ice real guy
You must have been looking some where else like biggie smalls lazy eye
Pop sicker then your average Acquired Immune Deficiency Symdrome infected fast
[Chorus: Sheek Louch]
We don't care where your from nigga east or west
And we don't care what you wear we don't aim for the vest
It's lox, sauce and Ras Kass three of the best
Only niggaz with money we don't fuck with the rest
We don't care where your from nigga east or west
And we don't care what you wear we don't aim for the vest
It's lox, sauce and Ras Kass three of the best
Only niggaz with money we don't fuck with the rest ya heard
[Ras Kass]
It's like that nigga and it's always gonna be like that so you peeon as niggaz
I got a new word for you y'all niggaz boon walk that mean beat it backwards
Fuck out of here nigga the matrix Sheek Louch my nigga Sauce Money Ras Kass
I ask you for forgiveness and you deny
I can't tell you what for
I can't tell you why
It wasn't an accident
It wasn't even me
It was just the beast I once set free
This didn't happen on purpose
This just had to be
It was not about my instinct
It was just the beast I once set free
Give me salvation
And rest at least
You just have to kill the beast
Give me salvation
And rest at least
Warn the town the beast is loose,
Word 'em up y'all
C'mon
Conflicts with night sticks
Illegal sales districts,
Hand-picked lunatics, keep poli-TRICK-cians rich
Heretics push narcotics amidst its risks and frisks,
Cool cliques throw bricks but seldom hit targets
Private-DIC sell hits, like porno-flicks do chicks.
The 666 cut W.I.C. like Newt Gingrich SUCKS D***
Meanwhile the government brings Star Wars from glocks to glockers
C.O.P. has an APB out on Chewbacca
Mista Mayor, can I say something in yo honor
Yesterday in Central Park they got the Jogger
Okay, okay.
Let's get the confusion straight in ghetto Gotham
The man behind the mask you thought was Batman is Bill Clinton.
Who soon retire, the roof is on fire
Connie Chung brung the bomb as it comes from Oklahoma
Things are getting serious, Kuumbaya,
On a mountain satan offered me, Manhattan help me Jah Jah
You can't search me without probable cause
Or that proper ammunition they call reasonable suspicion
Listen I bring friction to your whole jurisdiction
You planted seeds in my seat when I wasn't lookin.
Now you ask me for my license/registration
"WHAT THE F**K" is my name
"WHAT THE F**K" is my occupation
Well I'm an MC, I'm down with the Fugees
Mother Mary caught a flashback like Rodney now the cops got Lolly.
The subconscious psychology that you use against me,
If I lose control will send me to the penetentiary
Such as Alcatraz, or shot up like al Hajj Malik Shabazz
High class get bypassed while my ass gets harrassed.
And the fuzz treat bruh's like they manhood never was,
And if you too powerful, you get bugged like Peter Tosh and Marley was.
And my word does nothing against the feds,
So my eyes stay red as I chase crazy bald heads, WORD UP.
Warn the town the beast is loose, Ah - ah, Ah - ah
Word 'em up y'all
The chase is on I feel like the bad guy
Fifth gear 125 like New Jersey drive
Looked in my rear view mirror
Police was getting closer
Heard a roar in the sky,
Looked up and saw the Blue Thunder.
My inner conscious says throw your handkerchief and surrender,
BUT TO WHO???
The star spangled banner ooh.
Say can't you see cops more crooked than we
By the dawn's early night robbin' niggas for kis.
Easy low key crooked military
Pay taxes out my ass but they still harrass me.
The streets of corruption got me bustin and cussin' in the concrete jungle
Thoughts being dribbled like that tall kid Mutumbo
Handled by Hannibal
Soon I'm gonna be a fugitive like Dr. Kimble.
Hey yo should I slow down?
Nah kid go faster,
Just cause they got a badge, they could still be impostors.
Probable cause, got flaws like dirty draws
Meet me at the corner store so we can start the street wars.
Warn the town the beast is loose, Ah - ah, Ah - ah,
Pack up your things
Your work here is done
A slave to the beast
No mercy with time
No mercy with time
They bound you with the fire
Then push you into the sun
They want the free land to expire
They want everyone to be numb
The world?s drinking from a cup
That no one wants to share
Words from the king
That no one wants to hear
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Retrench me because of machines
Kids trading roses for guns
Track marks under the sleeve
I can't talk, I need to run
Love's thrown away the ring
Not knowing what to say
Mama won't you say?
It's like you're cut by the blade
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
(Don't be running late, don't be running late)
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
(Don't be running late, don't be running late)
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
(Don't be running late, don't be running late)
Don't be running late, are you on time today?
(Don't be running late)
Don't be running late, don't be running late
Don't be running late, don't be running late
Don't be running late, don't be running late
There's no other way to say it baby
I gotta let you know just what I feel
We've had better days than what's been happening lately
I don't wanna walk away
But I gotta be real with you
And I've heard you say you're gonna change
But I'm afraid that it's too late
It's too late
It's too late
You're more than just a friend to me baby
And I won't do you wrong no matter what's going on
And though I feel the need to leave it pains me
Right down to my bones the hurt is so strong
And I've heard you say you're gonna change
But I'm afraid it's too late
It's late
Oh, I believe that it's too late
It's too late
It's too late
Chorus :
I'm giving you the best of me
The best it's true
But I can't get the best from you
So I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do
I'm giving you the best of me
The best it's true
But I can't get the best from you
So I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do
I've spent days and nights contemplating
Over you and me and the road I'm taking
And I hope in the end that you won't hate me
I know you feel the same if you'd only face it
And I've heard you say you're gonna change
But I'm afraid that it's too late
It's too late
Oh, I believe that it's too late
It's too late
It's too late
Chorus :
I'm giving you the best of me
The best it's true
But I can't get the best from you
So I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do
(That I can do, yeah)
I'm giving you the best of me
The best it's true
But I can't get the best from you
So I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do
(I can do)
I'm giving you the best of me
The best it's true
But I can't get the best from you
So I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do
(I can do)
I'm giving you the best of me
The best it's true
But I can't get the best from you
So I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do
I'm giving you the best of me
The best it's true
But I can't get the best from you
So I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do
On a perfect day
Somewhat like today
We will find each other there
We will find each other there
And somewhat like the month we first met
And we can't forget the way I loved you
But I can't pretend how far we've gone
And we cannot mend what damage has been done
No, we cannot mend what damage is done now
But then we shall come home and become
The best ones we could have been
And oh, the best we could have been
I was wrong when i hurt you
But did you have to hurt me too
Did you think revenge will make it better?
I don't care about the past
I just want our love to last
There's a way to bring us back together
Chorus:
I must forgive you
You must forgive me too
If we wanna try to put things back
the way they used to be
'cause there's no sense in going over and over
The same things as before
So let's not bring the past up anymore
Out of all the good we had
You only keep track of the bad
Though you knew i never really loved her
Didn't anyone tell you yet
That to forgive is to forget
How can you be mad if you don't remember
Repeat Chorus
I must forgive you
And you must forgive me too
It's the only thing that's left
that we haven't try to do
One thing that I'm sure will work
That we haven't tried before
(the best)
Like other music rap is an art
And if you wanna get the feeling, got to feel it in your heart
You need brain power, dictation
Vocabulary, articulation
Creativity and originality
Execution of a feud formality
Versatility and a voice that's loud
With the ability to take a crowd
To it's apogee, and always has a
Feeling like you're havin a mental orgasm
Makin all minds come to one conclusion
You are the best and it's not an illusion
(the best)
(rockin my beat)
(the best)
For instance
If this record was an atom, I'd be the nucleus
The center of attention, kool moe dee and I'm just
Like the core of an apple, the priest of the chapel
With the mic in my hand I'm like a surgeon with a scalpel
Ready to operate the rhymes that I create
Sounds like music to your ears cause I can combinate
Bass and treble to create a level
Of highs and lows of sounds that goes
With syncopated concrete-created
Beats that meet the standard of a street credit
Gotta critique a rhyme if it's weak
You won't wanna speak if your rhymes not peak
With verbs and nouns and adjectives
Combined to make a phrase
That'll play with a beat
Stop and start, slow it down at a part
And totally amaze
The whole crowd, leave em in a state of awe
Cause I'm as perfect as a diamond without a flaw
And yes, I'm legendary, also very, very
Educated, proficient and extraordinary
In my field the other rappers yield
A knight in shining armor and the mic is my shield
In rap I'm vital, the other rappers' idol
The best mc and moe dee's my title
But you can call me kool
Now when I rock instead of
Just average I'm better
Than the average man
And that's why I can
Make a real human feel like a manakin
I mean I'm cold heart? from the time I walk in
I'll shock ya and amaze ya
Hit ya, then I'll daze ya
Either way I'm gonna phase ya
Cause I'm sharp as a razor
When I'm rhymin to the cut
You know what?
I'm the best mc
Many imitate me
They never would admit it
They just can't get it
I rhyme like the rest
But the juice I possess
Always seems to be more
I'm a rhyme connoisseur
My taste for the beat
Is also elite
I'm the best hip-hopper from off the street
Cause when I'm rhymin on the mic I always take control
Can't another rapper touch me with a 10 ft. pole
I rhyme a 100 miles an hour
With lightning-speedin power
Make the sweetest of the sweet mc's look sour
Timber as they tower, because I devour
Any other rapper and I can prove it now or
A little bit later, cause I'm a graduator
From a rhymin alma mater, but some say alma mata
Like you say patata, I say potato
Tomato, tomata, my data's up to data
Cause somethin is the matter with those of you say dada
Could mean opposite of mama, like the kids at wonderama
I'm very good at actin, I'm very good at drama
I confuse you with a period, colon and a coma
Cause when I'm rhymin and I take a pause
You think the rhyme is over but when you and yours
Really check out what I'm doin, then you say ooh
When they say who's the best mc to you
You'll look at me, then you say I know who
(moe dee, moe dee...)
It's kool moe dee
(moe dee, moe dee...)
Weak is your mind
and weak are your words
"Destroyer of lives" - Ha!
I spit on your whorish ways
Your dearest lies are holy, yet undivine
You shall stand petrified by the fierce pest
Scream before the ones you never did rape!
Your tears make me laugh
makes you yield your soul to the pest
I like
wanna give you something
you gave
all for me
I can't
understand your thinking
it is weird
cannot take it in
you deserve not just a small piece of me
you deserve all that I am - the best thing that I can
wanna give you the best part of me, but the best part that I ever had is you
you did not
hesitate to come down
in this world
I'm ashamed
beaten
from the ones you came for
despised
took my place
you deserve not just a small piece of me
you deserve all that I am - the best thing that I can
wanna give you the best part of me, but the best part that I ever had is you
not gold
not diamonds
no stocks
no millions
not pearls
not treasures
no stars but I
give you the best thing of my life
Call me Special,
stickman stencil,
thin like pencil
I've got a thumb so I can pick up and use them utensils
My credential, I'm prehensile
And I may be standing still now,
but my energy has potential
Boom!
We explode like the hedgehog,
sonically
We're dooma to the goombas
when we jump up Marionically
It's immaterial,
cause I'm ethereal
Some day my face will be seen on a box of cereal
I ride with the pride of the lion on my mane
But you can only know me as I exist upon this plane
All the same,
what's my name?
You must be joking
upon pain of death
can my true name be spoken
In the morning
I storm in and swarm without warning
Shift shape and rise like the Phoenix from the flame I reign collosal,
fueled like fossil
Doing the impossible,
raising dead
as I spread
the gospel Of the skinnee
to the many it's a J day
Your whack attackers
lack it so just pack it
like a K-way
J's intended to be splendid
when we send it Rip shit up
and then we mend it
Ain't no body, does it better,
ain't no body, does it better,
then J!
Ain't no body, does it better,
ain't no body, does it better,
then J!
A Word to the skeptics and the cynical
We're the ones who taught Him how to make a miracle
Before you make a scene say we blaspheme,
cut the fuss Take a look at the good book,
that was us
From the top of the zenith,
we're the pinnacle For the squeamish
any skirmish is unwinnable
As we travel like Odysseus throughout the universe
Alerting we be certain
that we're converting earth first
Ain't no body, does it better,
ain't no body, does it better,
then J!
Ain't no body, does it better,
ain't no body, does it better,
then J!
Power, might, glory, omnipotence
With my hands behind my back
I still control all of the elements
We're heaven sent
so we rule all creation
All that's evil
runs before me wailing lamentations
Blink and you missed it,
the futuristic existence
From another plane I came and it'll never be the same
Naw it's better,
Hail the nappy heada Incision with precision
and I'm skinnee like stilletta
I'm beheading serpents this serpent-head medusa
Refusing to give in cause I'm living like Methusela
Fighting off your evil
as your mental's getting feeble
and you wobble like a weeble
Just chill,
Skinnee J's
raise the upheaval
Missed it on the first time,
now catch the sequel
Return of the new
and improved
and I'm smooth
Ain't nobody does it better,
here's the proof
Ain't no body, does it better,
ain't no body, does it better,
then J!
Ain't no body, does it better,
ain't no body, does it better,
then J!
Run from the beast
There's danger in his eyes
He's been looking for you
For a long time
You might think this is funny
But I'm not laughing
I know it couldn't happen to me.
No one doubts the wisdom of this move
You're getting older and you know you got something to prove
Out in the streets
The modern vampire prowls
He's been spreading disease
All around
There's an epidemic
If you don't believe me
You ought to take a look at the eyes of your friends
When someone tempts you, you can't refuse
It's getting colder and you know you got nothing to lose
You need it
Know you got nothing to lose
You need it
Run from the beast
There's darkness in his mind
He's been looking for you
For a long time
You might think this is funny
But I'm not laughing
I know that it couldn't happen to me
I don't care about it happening to me
I've tried to show you your whole life in print
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink
Think about it
All you gotta do is think
Now its day
But soon the night is here
Again and I will pray
For a night without no fear
Tormenting my mind I'm so scared
Slowly tearing me apart
There is no more will I most kill
Screams of anger all around
This cannot be reality
I destroy and kill
Is this reality?
I destroy and kill
Is this reality?
Or just a fantasy?
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast within
Commanding my mind
Hold me as a prisoner
Who has lost control of time
I am trapped and lost inside a cage
I cannot escape the beast
The key to freedom disappeared
Searching for the holy path
Escaping pain and misery
I destroy and kill
Is this reality?
I destroy and kill
Is this reality?
Or just a fantasy
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
[Solo]
I hear those voices talking
But there is no one there
I hear those voices talking
Please make them disappear
I hear those voices talking
Cant take it any more
I hear those voices talking
Fight the unholy war
So many man before me
Has fallen down and cried
So many man before me
No matter how they tried
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast of no religion
The beast a mysterious creation
The beast of no religion
Where did our love go, you will never know
How did you get home, you will never know
Did you catch yourself in the mirror?
It's a sight I understand
You considered it all for a second
And put it down to slight of hand
You know I've been running 'round for hours
Calling my egyptian(?) blood to bear me flowers
Calling sophia, goddess of power
Instead I got the beast
And tonight he lies with me
Tonight he lies with me
Tonight he lies with me
And here comes to beast
You're okay now, I suppose
You're not pulled by the rope
I'm pulled by the pull on my throat
I'm pulled by the rope
I swing from the trees into the slope
Hold my head high, just by the tip of my toes
And he lies, he lies so sweet that I choke
Tonight I choose the beast
Tonight he lies with me
Tonight he lies with me
Tonight he lies with me
And here comes the beast
Put your eyes away
If you can't bear to see your (the?) old lady
Laying down next to the beast
Tonight he lies with me
Tonight he lies with me
And here comes the beast
Look at yourself in the mirror
It's a sight I understand
You consider it all for a second
And put it down to slight of hand
I give you the best, the best that I can
I suggest that you be grateful
That it's your blood on my hands?
And assume yourself weaker, the fall of man (?)
And look out for the beast
Tonight he lies with me
Tonight he lies with me
And here comes the beast
Put your eyes away
If you can't bear to see your (the?) old lady
Laying down next to the beast
Tonight he lies with me
Tonight he lies with me
You tell me, you need me
And you'll never leave me
I want to believe that it's true
'Cause if one day, I woke up
And found that we'd broke up
No one can take the place where there was you
I could never fall in love again, there's no way I could pretend
Now that I've had the best
I searched forever but it never could be better than this
How could my heart forget
I'd never be the same
And baby, your love's to blame
How could I settle for less
Now that I've had the best
I know sure as I breathe
That your all that I need
To love you is what I'm living for
'Cause you love me so deeply
So strong and completely
There's no one who could ever love me more
I could never fall in love again, there's no way I could pretend
Now that I've had the best
I searched forever but it never could be better than this
How could my heart forget
I'd never be the same
And baby, your love's to blame
How could I settle for less
Now that I've had the best
No one else can measure up to how you give me all your love
The best
If I loved ya forever it would never be enough
I could never fall in love again, there's no way I could pretend
Now that I've had the best
I've searched forever but it never could be better than this
How could my heart forget
I'd never be the same
And baby, your love's to blame
How could I settle for less
Now that I've had the best
Who can find
The Beast?
She's big,
She's bad,
She's wicked,
She's sad...
Who can fight
The Beast?
She comes,
She goes,
Who ever
Knows...
Who can fight
Walking or asleep, thou of death must deem
Things more true and deep than we mortals dream
We look before and after and pine for what's not
Our sincerest laughter with some pain is fraught
Will thou now forget the happy hours
Which we buried in love's, in love's sweet bowers
Heaping over their corpses so cold
Blossoms and leaves instead of the mold?
Forget the dead and the past? Oh yet,
There are ghosts that may take revenge for it,
Memories that make the cold heart a tomb
I watched as the dark fades to dawn,
And wished the past never happened (never happened)
Walking home as the streetlights are turning off,
And the pen on the papers is hardly dry at all,
My bloodshot eyes struggle to adjust to the sun,
I always thought but I had hoped that I was wrong,
I wished the past never happened to you,
Happened to you,
Happened to you
Quietly turned away trembling
I felt the weight of your words as they finally met your lips,
I would give anything to take away this pain you live with,
I gave you my soul, I give you this wish
Pass the time distract me from myself cause I'm so miserable.
Misery loves company your company keeps me miserable.
You're co-dependent you enable me to treat you with disrespect.
You wonder why you're so unhappy I wonder what you did expect.
Because I can treat you as good as you treat yourself.
I'm a dysfunctional narcissistic drama freak who thrives on misery.
You wonder why I fuck your friends I wonder why you're fucking me.
I'm afraid to give you what you need I know you would leave me for sure.
So I starve you for attention you always come back wanting more.
I play my games, you play your part.
I will watch your mixed emotions tear you apart.
But after all that you've been through to you I must confess,
[Guy:]
Yeah uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, yeah
Yes! G-U-Y and I
Gotta get a piece of this pie
Gonna take you on a high
Do or die
Are you with it?
Cause you can be the one who can get it
And if I get money we can split it
If I gave you my life would you live it
Would you fit it?
Now who wanna be the freeloader
Who wanna be the shareholder
Who's gonna be the downloaders
When I download the **** on the block
All consumers just be ready to cop
Cause I'm ready to drop, **** be fifty a pop
You better let me know if you want it or not
Yo it's gonna be gone by the end of the day
Cause **** from Y2K
[1] - We're talking 'bout the best
Take it to the wild, wild West
Talking about the dirty south
That's what I'm all about, no doubt
Take it to the East
You gotta go fast in the streets
Cause I'm living in the belly of the beast
I'm just trying to live in peace, roll out
Now we're rolling on the South side
With my true playas this is from the East side
Got my shorties in the back
Got my niggaz in the front
And my fifteen inch rims on my hoo ride
Now who rides, rolling through the ATL so don't trip
Plus you're about to get yourself in some ****
And you know we got your back
All the clubs are pack from front to back, the girls are phat
Booty banging like a budha sack
And when you're living in the ghetto
You gotta know when to let go
How to hold every dice roll
Or your platinum from your white gold
Plus the price is on your soul
And everyday's in vain
Shooting you're luck like a monopoly game
And everybody's looking for the fortune and fame
That's the name of this thang
[Repeat 1]
[1 Life 2 Live:]
Only the best like pushing black Bentley coupes
You ain't the best so that just can't be you
Only the best like coppin' a platinum piece
You ain't the best nigga **** cheap
Me, toxic, I split vintage
Everything you talk you know we been did
You kick one rap and you all winded
Your career real quick started and ended
We the elite means we the top of the line
Means we go straight in while you stopping in the line
Means I don't give a **** what you got in your rhymes
Means y'all get to going when I'm cocking my nine
When Teddy told me the cost, **** hit me hard
Pay me how many thousands for sixteen bars?
You wiling, you gon' regret that you started this mess
Got two g but will never be part of the best
[Repeat 1]
Just trying to live in peace yeah, yeah
I call you when I need you, my heart’s on fire
You come to me, come to me wild and wild
When you come to me
Give me everything I need
Give me a lifetime promises and a world of dreams
Speak a language of love like you know what it means
And it can’t be wrong
Take my heart and make it strong baby
You’re simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I’ve ever met
I’m stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby I would rather be dead
In your heart, I see the star of every night and every day
In your eyes I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I’m here in your arms
I could be in no better place
You’re simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I’ve ever met
I’m stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby I would rather be dead
Each time you leave me I start losing control
You’re walking away with my heart and my soul
I can feel you even when I’m alone
Oh baby, don’t let go
You’re simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I’ve ever met
I’m stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart

This is a Crazy Legs backspin
This is comin home drunk from a club, to a back massage
and aspirin
This is Michael Jackson, when he had black skin
Singin "ABC" with his brothers, in Quincy Jones mansion
This is the best thing since grandma's peach cobbler
This is the high you get when you first smoke on some
ganja
This is the Cosby Show, when every dude wanted to be
Theo
I had a crush on Denise and Sandra
This is my girl, for wantin to be my wife
This is track one on Stevie Wonder's "Songs in the Key
of Life"
This is the first time you heard Lauryn Hill
This is the feeling you get when your girl decides not
to take that morning after pill
This is the best of the best feelings in your chest
This is J-Lo's breasts, in that green dress
This is the first time I made out
This is throwin out all my Gobots when the Transformers
came out
The best
[Chorus: various samples scratched]

"I reminisce" - CL Smooth, "It's all good" - B.I.G.
"Damn right I like the life I live" - B.I.G.

"Damn right I like the life I live" - B.I.G.
"I reminisce" - CL Smooth, "on" - "the best"

This is the best, the best feeling you ever had
Like 23 years later finally meeting your dad
This is that Sunday walk in the park, with a new shorty
lookin for a spot to spark
This is a drive on the I-95, in a 65 Chevy
colored red apple candy, doin 80 to Miami
Understand me? This is that first sip of brandy
at your uncle's wedding when you were young, bet that
shit had you feelin manly
This is sex, with a girl from out of town
who broke up with her man that looked better than you
but she was on the rebound
This is Mike Tyson's Punch-Out outrunnin Pac-Man
This is Sourpatch Kids, Lemonheads and Cherry Chans
This is that senior trip to the dude ranch
This is growin your first plant under that ultraviolet
lamp
This is makin your first grand off a couple of grams
This is San Juan Beach when you first set foot on the
sand
The best
[Chorus]
[Pumpkinhead]
This is Malcolm X standin by the window
This is roadtrips for kinfolk bumpin OutKast blowin
indo out the window
This is your first date, this is Kobe Bryant gettin
acquitted for rape
This is fishin in the Great Lakes
This is the best, this is great
This is the best part of the album, this is God's grace
This is Amos & Andy, washin that black paint off they

This is the person that caught the Rodney King beating

This is channel 5 kung-fu flicks, this is {?} hero

With two quarter waters and a bag of chips

This is cafe con leche that my grandfather sips
This is skippin the line at the club cause you on the

She said she's not feelin you, says you play too many games
Shorty get your room & board, now you roll with Wave Gang.
Send that dude a post card, tell him who you're flyin with

Glock Block Wave Gane 2010
This a little leak mane
Feelin special today
F*** it I fell sepcial everyday mane
Ya know
Catch Up
IT'S TIME
TIME TO UNLEASH THE BEAST
And then to realize
Its teeth are fucking gone
Still with its bleeding gums
It ignores the "no offence meant"s and "I don't mind"s
But cant bite through the "please not in front of my eyes"s
And the "please don't get me wrong"s
A deathtrap made of bagatelles
A spear made up of nothingness
This is how it is
Oh boy, you're drowning in the quicksand of the things
That you didn't mean that way
Here's some advice:
Don't say 'em then!
What's left of you fits in your big mouth
Next to your bitten tongue
What's left of us is gaining strength and
The beast is out there to terrify
The suburban homes full of open-minded dads
But brokeback mountain scared the shit out of their pants
I know your mom's not in for racist behavior
But better to keep an eye on the immigrated neighbors
When was the last time you called somebody a fag?
Or just joined the laughter cause you felt too powerless
See, I don't wanna spoil the fun
But you might wanna reflect on the things you've done
What's left of you is not much more than
Your fear and hatred and
What's left of us is gaining strength and
All we have left is tolerance
All we have left is dignity
Time to unleash the beast
And then to decimate the ones
Who pave the way for prejudice
And when you feel the waves crash in above your head
Don't bury it on the ocean floor
Just remember the beast
And to wake it up
So go ahead
And make it rise to life instead
ALL WE HAVE LEFT
Is dignity
ALL WE HAVE
I was wrong when I hurt you
But did you have to hurt me too
Did you think revenge will make it better?
I don't care about the past
I just want our love to last
There's a way to bring us back together
CHORUS:
I must forgive you (I must forgive you)
You must forgive me too (we must have to try)
If you wanna try to put things back the way they used to be
honey let's start again)
'Cause there's no sense in going over and over
The same things as before
So let's not bring the past back anymore
(no looking back, we can't look back)
(honey let's start again)
Out of all the good we had
You only keep track of the bad
Though you knew I never really loved her
Didn't anyone tell you yet
That to forgive is to forget
How can you be mad if you don't remember
CHORUS:
I must forgive you (I must forgive you)
You must forgive me too (we must have to try)
If you wanna try to put things back the way they used to be
(honey let's start again)
'Cause there's no sense in going over and over
The same things as before
So let's not bring the past back anymore
(no looking back, we can't look back)
(honey let's start again)
I must forgive you
And you must forgive me too
It's the only thing that's left that we haven't try to do
One thing I'm sure will work
That we haven't tried before
Let's not bring the past back anymore
(no looking back, no looking back)
