The African Methodist Episcopal Church, usually called the A.M.E. Church, is a predominantly African American Methodist denomination based in the United States. It was founded by the Rev. Richard Allen in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1816 from several black Methodist congregations in the mid-Atlantic area that wanted independence from white Methodists. Allen was elected and consecrated its first bishop in 1816.
"God Our Father, Christ Our Redeemer, the Holy Spirit Our Comforter, Humankind Our Family"
Derived from Bishop Daniel Alexander Payne's original motto "God our Father, Christ our Redeemer, Man our Brother", which served as the AME Church motto until the 2008 General Conference, when the current motto was officially adopted.
The AME Church grew out of the Free African Society (FAS), which Richard Allen, Absalom Jones, and other free blacks established in Philadelphia in 1787. They left St. George's Methodist Episcopal Church because of discrimination. Although Allen and Jones were both accepted as preachers, they were limited to black congregations. In addition, the blacks were made to sit in a separate gallery built in the church when their portion of the congregation increased. These former members of St. George’s made plans to transform their mutual aid society into an African congregation. Although the group was originally non-denominational, eventually members wanted to affiliate with existing denominations.

Frédéric François Chopin ( /ˈʃoʊpæn/; French pronunciation: [fʁe.de.ʁik ʃɔ.pɛ̃]; Polish: Fryderyk Franciszek Chopin, also phonetically Szopen; 22 February or 1 March 1810 – 17 October 1849) was a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist of French-Polish parentage. He is considered one of the great masters of Romantic music. Chopin was born in Żelazowa Wola, a village in the Duchy of Warsaw. A renowned child-prodigy pianist and composer, Chopin grew up in Warsaw and completed his music education there; he composed many mature works in Warsaw before leaving Poland in 1830 at age 20, shortly before the November 1830 Uprising.
Following the Russian suppression of the Uprising, he settled in Paris as part of Poland's Great Emigration. During the remaining 19 years of his life, Chopin gave only some 30 public performances, preferring the more intimate atmosphere of the salon; he supported himself by sales of his compositions and as a piano teacher. After some romantic dalliances with Polish women, including an abortive engagement, from 1837 to 1847 he carried on a relationship with the French writer Amantine Dupin (pen name "George Sand"). For most of his life, Chopin suffered from poor health; he died in Paris in 1849 at age 39.
Agustin Anievas (born 11 June 1934; New York City) is an American pianist, specializing in the works of Frédéric Chopin, Franz Liszt and Sergei Rachmaninoff.
Anievas made his world professional debut in 1944, the first child to give a piano recital at the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City, and at 18 made his New York debut with the Little Orchestra Society. As a student of Eduard Steuermann and Adele Marcus at the Juilliard School, he earned his B.S. and M.S. in 1958. He was the winner of many competitions, including the Michaels Memorial Award, and the Concert Artists Guild in NY, which offered him a New York debut recital in 1958. Time Magazine commented that "he had the prodigious technique and the kind of rhapsodic, deeply felt musical vision that suggests a major career". As the grand prize winner in the first International Mitropoulos Competition for Pianists in 1961, he began his international career, playing in the cultural centers of Europe, South Americaa and Asia, in recital and with orchestras including London Philharmonic, New Philharmonia, BBC, the German radio orchestras, New York Philharmonic, Hong Kong Philharmonic, Mexico Symphony, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Brussels Philharmonic. EMI maintains a catalog of Anievas's performances and releases on their Forte Label.
Pevajuci svoju elegiju
Jadikovanje mracnim carstvima
Jednom padose nikad vise
Vaskrsli hor drevnog kraljevstva
From the dark past, thy renewal
Has brought thou to thy ancient throne
Embalmed in dust of years before
A thousand year curse has been sealed
Singing their funeral dirge
Lament for dark royalties
Once failed and never again
Followed by choir of an ancient kingdom
Now rise, forever
Thou shall rise followed by ice wind and nothern lightnings
Triarchy of souls, which will never find rest gathered in sin
Iz davne proslosti
Na presto donosi
Usnula povorka
Hor drevnog kraljevstva
(vecno pevaju kroz noc)
Greeting thee to stand above them
O Morena, Morena
Tamnim velom uzasa prekri sve
Tvoje znanje vecno je
Al' ti dusu hladi, ledi je
Spusti se pod zemlju cedo moje
Predji preko uskog mosta, cuvaj se
Ispod tece reka suza koju
Isplakase duse vecno proklete
Kapija nava se otvara
Da prigrli potomka
Posle sedam eona
Trece carstvo osvaja
Dolazim, nastajem, padam, al' ustajem
(kapija nava se otvara)
Slusaj me, ne lazem, poslednja ostajem
(posle sedam eona)
Starim zlatom zakuj oci
Bori se, ljudske grehe ne gledi
Plakati nemoj, kasno je
Suze lazne mogu te samo oslepeti
Spusti se pod zemlju krvi moja
Predji preko uskog mosta, cuvaj se
Ispod tece reka suza koju
Isplakase duse vecno proklete
Kapija nava se otvara
Da prigrli potomka
Posle sedam eona
Trece carstvo osvaja
Dolazim, nastajem, padam, al' ustajem
(kapija nava se otvara)
Slusaj me, ne lazem, poslednja ostajem
Pred kapijom vecnosti
Bez zurbe I bola dolazi kraj
Cekaju na nas jahaci posasti
Da krenu u pohod svoj
God of darkness sleeping this night
Time to kill, ready to strike
Dreams of insanity, fear and despair
Slowly slipping into nowhere
Pomoli se sada usnuli boze
Jer vecna glad I mrak za tobom sezu
U beskrajnu tamu kostiju I koze
Da isperes savesti svoje grizu
God of darkness sleeping this night
Time to kill, ready to strike
Dreams of insanity, fear and despair
Slowly slipping into nowhere
Dugo je tama u mom telu
Pristajem na sve bez straha sada
Pred sobom vidim buducnost celu, kao krvavu strelu
Leti ka meni, stize me kad tad, osecam pad
Krv u venama spremna je na sve
Samo je pusti napolje nek oboji tle
Nek kapne u mrak I svetlosti zrak
Nocas mi san ne kuca na okna
Pokleklog uma, umornog
U ocima se preplicu spirale
Vrzmaju likovi dana minulog
Umiri se duso jer peskar ce doci
Sasuce ti pesak u oci
Tada do spokoja neces doci
Jer ce te jako grebati oci
Umiri se duso odmah
Pescana oluja se dize
Na oseci pod mesecinom
Topli te vetar stize
Tada pod tvojim krevetom
Peskar se hrani strahom
Kosmar te obuzima
U noci bez pocinka
Nocas mi san...
Izgubljene duse jedna drugu traze
Tamo gde se tamna skuplja rosa
Kristalno cista, al' prasinom okovana
(Korenje su okovi, kora njihova koza, crne grane srca njihova)
Korenje su okovi
U krosnjama abonosa
Jedna drugoj ruke pruzaju
Pod mrezom tame sto pokriva rosa
Vetar koji poji tiho
U krosnjama abonosa
Kristalno cista, al' prasinom okovana
(Korenje su okovi, kora njihova koza, crne grane srca njihova)
Korenje su okovi
U krosnjama abonosa
Posmatraju daleko u daljini
Lisce sto vetar ih nosa
Dve duse zarobljene zauvek
U krosnjama abonosa
Kristalno cista, al' prasinom okovana
(Korenje su okovi, kora njihova koza, crne grane srca njihova)
Korenje su okovi
Misli lutaju prljavim nebom
Lete u beskraj gde nicega nema
Ovog trena mislim telom
Jer srce moje I dusa drema
Prazno sve je, svuda pustinja
Prepuno sve je totalnog besa
Svaka moja misao je odbegla
Negde tamo u nebesa
Imprisoned soul cries out
For in this cage of flash and bone
And milk white skiin,
She has dwelled.
In agony and despair
Time still flows through her veins
Making wounds, that will burn
Eternally...
Vreme je!
Vreme je! Stize me strah, da li je san
Mozda java, ne znam sada
Ne znam sta sam, govorim svima
Verujem samo svojim ocima
Vreme je! Slusaj me sad, ja sam taj glas
Realnost pada pod nogama
Jednom u tami dobices krila
Poleteces kad ne bude stida
Nastaje strah, postaje zvuk
Zvuk koji donosi tonove bola
Bol odnosi slatku nadu
Ka beskrajnim putevima neba
Pitam opet, ali nema ga
Glasa koji daje odgovor
Evo ponovo hvata me trema
Jer padam u poznati ponor
The time is hidden
Closing all doors of mind
It circles throughout your veins
Crawling out of my skin, wounds are deeper
My twisted mind is calling you...
Vreme je!
Vreme je! Stize me strah, da li je san
Mozda java, ne znam sada
Ne znam sta sam, govorim svima
Verujem samo svojim ocima
Vreme je! Slusaj me sad, ja sam taj glas
Realnost pada pod nogama
Jednom u tami dobices krila
As the midnight hour awaits
The sound of silence is pounding my soul
The last vestige of hope is behind those walls
The eternal ice!
The labyrinth has broken once again
Thy has fallen by my hands
Heavenly light in the distance the time is now
Break free!
Odlazim negde gde vreme je stalo
Hocu put, hocu svetlost!
Hocu izlaz iz ove tame
Svega ovog dosta mi je
Lavirinta, bola, drame
Uzalud cekam, jos uvek trazim
Uporno zovem, niko me ne cuje
Proslost je svuda, ona goni.
Kuda nas zove, kuda vodi
Ovaj zivot bez mnogo reci?
Ponoc izvire
Nocas tesi me dusa sna
Dusa koja gradi hram
Mog svetla koje je doslo do dna
In this hour of darkness
I come forth with urge
For truth and castellation.
Mystic long forgotten tongue speaks within me
Exaudi domine vocem meam!
To this prayer I succumb,
The candles are burning colder now,
Through malice and darkness I see
Lux intenebris lucet
Lux veritatis
Kada gresnici spoznaju strah
Zidovi bola postace prah
Razapet na sopstvene lazi
Zaslepljena uz prazna obecanja
Gresna dusa izlaz uvek trazi
Kratkom molitvom pomilovanja
Kruna trnja sada me probada
Niko me ne cuje
Ona steze, sve nas veze.
Kuda seze
Ovaj zivot bez mnogo svetla?
Ponoc izvire
Nocas tesi me dusa sna
Dusa koja gradi hram
Mog svetla koje je doslo do dna
Razbijam led ovih zidina
Ostavljam vecni trag
Uskoro bice slobodan
Bonfires dot the roling hill side
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound.
Somewhere in a hidden memory
Images float before my eyes
Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires
And dancing till the next sunrise.
I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
A waltz on All Souls Night
Figures of corustalks bend in the shadows
Held up tall as the flames leap high
The green knight holds the holly bush
To mark where the old year passes by.
I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
A waltz on All Souls Night
Bonfires dot the roling hill side
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound.
Standing on the bridge that crosses
The river that goes out to the sea
The wind is full of a thousand voices
They pass by the bridge and me
I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
The darkness is created
Death, war, fear of misery
The pain of unsuccess
Triumph of victory
The unknown – the symbol of fear
Sada zelim da znam
Da znam misli boga
Zvuk, glas I razlog
Svega toga
I am not afraid of hell
I fear of heaven
Killed by loneliness
Struggle and defeat
The knowledge of life
Now I clearly say the words:
Odlazim zauvek!
Now I want inside
In the mind of god
Sound, voice
And the reason for all
The base of hate
Hate to be afraid
Sjajni oklopi zaslepece zle oci
Sa svim ponosom I secanjem na proslost
Reci nasih oceva, sto u srcima vecno nam odjekuje
Da celik se hrabroscu kuje
Glas mudrosti neka se od sad procuje!
Rec gromko izrecena
Svojom zarkom voljom ispisana
Jaca je uvek od onoga
Sto je samo u mislima
"Sletela je
Misao vodilja putem do beskraja
Razlila se po celom kolu sveta.
Svuda ona nestaje
Zato ovde nek nastane
Ona je simbol ponosa I casti
Utkana u svaku nit savesti"
Udrite sad svom snagom, pobednicki cujte glas!
Rec gromko izrecena
Svojom zarkom voljom ispisana
Jaca je uvek od onoga
Sto je samo u mislima
Podignite barjake
Rascepite nebo
Duh predaka nek zaposedne
Svako celo jedro
U bogovima svojim
[Ebony Eyez:]
They musta thought we was bluff in
Said we wasn't nothin'
Just another city
Full of crabs in a bucket
Got me like fuck it
It's time for a change
Get the troops, regroup I'm tired of playing games
Don't forget the time our Country Grammar made your hoods hop
And in a 7 day cycle, niggas hit the jackpot
Only problem, instead of sharing the wealth
Some niggas kept it for self
Least that's how I felt
But shit you know I'm outspoken
So on the same token
Nobody owe you shit
Go and get instead of moping
I love who I am
Love where I'm from
This place help mold me to the woman I've become
This the place where I lost my virginity
Found my femininity
And in the process I gained few enemies
In the state of misery
Last place to free the slaves
Just a little history
[Chorus x2: Aloha Mischeaux]
They say what don't kill you only make you (stronger)
For me all it did was multiply my (hunger)
They starting to get impatient
Can't wait no (longer)
It's been a while
Had to take a break
(But Now I'm Back)
[Ebony Eyez:]
First album that was just a rough draft
Scratch that
Had to backtrack
Take it back to the backpack
Use to hit The Hi-Pointe
Monday night, open mic
Left 'em wanting more
Shouting Encore
Get it right
No bitches spit it like I
Yo don't she sort of sound like Eb
I'm like nah
Don't make me have to do her
Like Fifty did Ja
Erase her, replace her, deface her
Good try
Now goodbye
Poof be gone
Truth be known
Them bitches rented I'm authentic
They ain't nothin but clones
I'm back home
Came to sit on my thrown
Queen of the Lou
These bitches can't budge me
Like my ass was stuck with super glue
Back in the zone
You can hear it in my song
Finna release the beast
Once again so it's on
We use to have pride
But it seems it died
Think it's time to revive
And bring the Lou back alive
Now when I met him he was riding clean fresh as mannie
Told me that he wanna see if I taste like candy
He like how I strollegged bowlegged down fifth and grande
Walking my argentina dogo sipping on some brandy
I know I'm bugging but I'm loving how the brother thuggin
I mean the nigga got me feeling hotter than a oven
He grabbed me by the waist and put his hands on my hips
All I could think about was getting a sample of them lips
Na we been kicking it since we met in november
Or december shit I don't know I can't remember
But that's my nigga and he know that I'm a hold him down
And when his phony homies bounce I'm a be around yeh
Cause she a hot chic block chic
Around the clock chic smoke the la
Keep it real chic trill chic
So that's my one chic down for like
We can hit the liquor store while he firing up the dro
Might take a puff but don't let nobody know
If a hater cause static then u know it's automatic
Shit I'm right with cha and we gotta let him have it
He know I'm a keep it real I'm a keep it trill
Let him know the deal if he get to acting I'll
See the gleam in his watch and my ring full of rocks
As I put my seat back and lean in the drop
Shorty ride shotgun in the ole skool lean to the side let's roll
(Let's roll let's roll)
Cause you know we trying to duck 5 0
Getting low while we puff that dro
(Oh ooh oh ooh)
And if we gotta go down tonight
You know damn well shorty down to fight
See that's the kind of chic I like
Drinking hennessy straight with no ice
(Yeh now tellum what you call me)
Now he gotta few potnas
But not too many
Don't like them type of gals
That's too skinny
Tell me watch out for heffas
Acting cool with me
Let him know it's all good
As long as you with me
He got a lot of muscle
And he taught me how to scuffle
He showed me how to hustle
My def jams like russel
He said here is what you gotta do
To make alot of capitol
Open up a avenue
Gone have them all after you
We chill on the couch and watch espn
When I'm being a grouch he still my bestes friend
His moma love me
But my daddy can't stand him
Bammas throw tantrums
When we creep up in the phantom
He love me when I wake up
Don't like alot of makeup
We have been known breakup
But then we kiss and make up
We do alot of freaking
Especially on the weekend
Mornings and evenings
(now that's a real chic for ya)
[Chorus:]
Na You can look but don't touch
Yeah I see um staring but you know I don't be caring
Got um shook I'm too much
I see them bitches hating tripping off of what I'm wearing
You can look but don't touch
Why you grabbing on my waist? Get the fuck up out my face
Got um shook I'm too much
Aye somebody better get um before I have to catch a case
[Ebony Eyez:]
My name ain't Bonita but you should see the
Way my applebottom got they knees getting weaker
Do anything to keep her never wanna leave her
First off I'm looking for a boss like Shareefa
Know this mamacita filling out her C cup
See him scoping got him open like a wide receiver
Following the leader know that this could be the
Number one single that's banging through ya speaker
I'm hotta than a heater, I'm colder that a freezer
I'm faster than a cheetah I hope that you can keep up
Pulling out they Visa trying they best to please her
That's how it goes when you fucking with a diva
[Chorus]
[Ebony Eyez:]
They wanna know my steelo but I be on the deelo
All up in my business but I guess that's how it be though
Chilling with my people sipping on Mojitos
This lady known to drive um crazy like they name was Cee-lo
Can boost a nigga ego my zodiac a Leo
I use to push a Geo but never been a cheap ho
I'm looking for a chico with a G4 to take me to Rio
But he must be legal so don't hit me up on Bebo
And yeah I like to mingle, that's why I'm living single
And everywhere that we go they tripping of my lingo
Can catch me at Casino but we call it Da Beano
I'm a trendsetter so they biting like mosquito's
[Chorus]
[Murphy Lee:]
First name Murphy Lee but you can call me re-up

[Chorus:]
Betta watch out for the type always acting like

Looking pretty in my ol' school Chevy

Is the motto like Fiddy
See something I want then I take it like gimme
Nah that ain't enough I need more like Demi
Conceited like Remy
Nah I'm just convinced
If it don't make dollars then it don't make sense
Apologies in order for leaving you in suspense (I'm sorry)
About where I have been and all of the events
Excuse me ladies and gents for seeming so intense
Had they hands in my pockets all they left me was some lint
And now it's time to pay me that
Pay me like rent
Yeah you gotta pay me that like rent
[Chorus]
[Ebony Eyez:]
If you hush for a second
I'm a tell you in a minute
Don't matter if I'm signed
Or I'm doing it independent (nope)
If the record hot Mufucka, you should spin it (damn)
I'm starting to get offended you keep asking me for spinach
And nah I ain't gon' pay your car note or your mortgage
What the fuck is you retarded?
Don't even get me started
Just tell the fucking DJ to put my shit on replay
And do it with no delay
Just run it like a relay
That he say and she say talk that is irrelevant
I'd rather talk money
That's a topic more prevalent
It's evident that Ebony Eyez is built to last
[Chorus x2: Ebony Eyez]
I gotta pocket fulla songz (I gotta pocket fulla songz)
I gotta pocket fulla songz (I gotta pocket fulla songz)
I gotta pocket fulla songz (I gotta pocket fulla songz)
I just can't leave this shit alone (I just can't leave this shit alone)
[Ebony Eyez:]
When I first started back in 1999
I used to have to hustle up some studio time
Me a nobody shit, naw that wasn't the case
But I took it world wide when I put my ass in they face
Straight out that gate I had that something for 'em right
Never half ass I'm a give it all I got
Been writin for a while got my rhymes stacked in piles
I got 'em like wow from my hundred different styles
And when they see me, wanna freebee I'm like nope
And you ain't buy my CD get the fuck away from me hoe
Soon as my shit hit it became an instant cut
And where ever I show up got the crowd going nuts
And yeah, you know I know you know that I'm the best
Fresh and that's why they stay mad at me I guess
But now they won't leave me alone
Cause they know I gotta whole pocket fulla songz
[Chorus]
[Ebony Eyez:]
They bump that 7Day Cycle and it made the streets hot
All eyes on me you can see like I'm Pac
When I step up on the set, I bet you won't forget
I gotta fuckin flow for every letter of the alphabet
If you know a bitch meaner than I guess you better bring her
Can catch me at your nearest coliseum or arena
Just see the way they linger, cause they probably never seen her
Rap bitch servin them like Venus and Serena
Williams, I really am on my grind
So fuckin poetic should win the Pulitzer prize
Besides, see I ain't trippin off them songs that you take
I told you I got piles so it ain't nothing to make
A whole new batch from scratch, I need that dough
I'm sayin, I'm like the Wayans screamin, "Mo' money, mo'! "
I swear, I can't leave this alone
And that's the reason that I gotta whole pocket fulla songz
[Chorus]
[Ebony Eyez:]
Should have my business boomin, and my products sellin fast
But it seems they only care about if you got a fat ass
I mean come on really, silly shit easy to sell
Female doing well, they gone make it hard as hell
See I do it for the love, I don't mind gettin that green
But some bitches trickin if you treatin like it's Halloween
My attitude mean cause I'm keeping my respect
Ain't writin another line for 'em unless he got my check
See I done paid my dues, time to put this shit in motion
And make it go smooth like some Aloe Vera lotion
So we can get the toastin' and living out our dreams
But first I got to build a Lady Lion dream team
And we gone make it happen, cause we do way more than rappin
So what I'm independent bitch, I bet I'm going platinum
With my million dollar paper, my million dollar pen

You aint heard a bitch spit this ill since Lauryn Hill
Bouta rise into Jiffy aint talkin bout cornmills
Dont give a fuck how you feel, im spittin it real
Now im laughin tha haters who ever doubted my skill
So dont make me have to deminstrate
Im quick to make a bitch dicinigrate, let it penitrate
Never hesitate, know im from the show me state
Now watch how quick i make it, never take
And elimate these bitches full of hate
[Chorus]

Fellas wanna date us
And da heffas wanna fight us
That's da word that got around
Then my joints as tight as arthritus
And i gotta hit da club
Gotta get some love
Mix it wit a lot otha stuff
Now i'm seein' double vision
Baby daddys trippin wit there baby mamas starting drama
But there aint no room to fight tonight
Its hotter than the suanna
Gotta be da track boys
If it's makin' that noise
Gettin' paper to my pockets bigger than da phat boys
Gon' and look around
While i gon' and put it down
While u scopin' around
Im on da floor gettin' down
And i gotta give you bits and pieces
Anything else is indecent
Da club is packed wit heathens
Who don't get madder they get even
Its gettin' hot in hurrr
Tell me how you got in hurrr
See so many fine niggas glad my man not in hurrr
(Chorus) x2
Now would you let me put my ass in ya face (in ya face)
(would you let me put my ass in ya face)
If i let you bend me over by the waist (by the waist)
(if i let you bend me over by the waist)
Now im back once again
Back in da benz
Back wit some friends
Stack in them ends
Gettin' it crackin' again
I don't need no riddas
Middle finga to da bitas
And i shit on more rappers than babies in diapers and cyphas
And you can bet that in set
Jet in a vet
Oh and don't let me forget
Da best you don' met yet
And i aint lyin'
Cats be dyin'
Tryin' ta get inside my tight jeans
They jus aint sayin' da right thing
No matta how it might seem
(oh)they like da way them ghetto girlz can get there coochie poppin'
Might take you out
And wine and dine u even take you shoppin'
Now he gon' keep on spendin'
Long as you can keep from grinnin'
Guraunteed that you be winnin'
This is only the beginin'
World gotta know
Dat this girl gotta flow
And im servin' em' yo
Nothin' like they've heard befo'
That's why i give it to em' 'cause i know they want it
And they need it
Don't mean to sound concieted
But if you don't eat it leave
(Chorus x2)
Now would you let me put my ass in ya face (in ya face)
(would you let me put my ass in ya face)
If i let you bend me over by the waist (by the waist)
(if i let you bend me over by the waist)
Now this the part where we break it down
Gon' break it down
Gon' break it down
Jus break it down
Gon' break it down(x3)
Jus break it down
Now pick it up
Gon' pick it up

[Chorus: Trey Songz]
I've got the heart of a solider (I've got the heart of a solider)
I've got the soul of a tiger (I've got the soul of a tiger)
Whoever said I'm scared (whoever said I'm scared)
You'sa mufuckin' liar (you'sa mufuckin' liar)
I've got the eye of an eagle (I've got the eye of an eagle)
I've got the back of my people (I've got the back of my people)
I'll bust my shudder head (I'll bust their shudder heads)
Don't you ever say I'm scared (don't you ever say I'm scared)
(don't you ever say I'm scurred)
[Verse 1: Ebony Eyez]
See.
Alot of mufuckers fall, when they back get pressed up against the wall
Not me homie
Wish a mufucker would, think he could come and take what's mines
Let him try and he gon' see
He gon get TUUUUUGED!
Leave him shriveled like a raisin with no hesitation
To late for the conversation, time wastin'
Send them to their final destination
Don't give a FUUUUUCK!
Let the middle finger, linger, to them rat clowns
Ain't the type that will back down, bet you'll get slap down
You better check my mufuckin background
Name only get around like rumors, never let the haters consume us
Leave a bitch with a head full of tumors
If she ever thinkin' of steppin' up to us
I'll show and PROOOOVE!
I'll niolate a bitch that'll violate this here
Never seen me she'd a tear, out of fear
Bring chaos in a minute to a mufucker
Yessiir!
I'm from the LOOOU!
And it's to late now dirrty, they don' got me started
And you can't abort it, cause a bitch like me is just to cold-hearted
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: Ebony Eyez]
Now you can say what you wanna bout me
Cause the truth really don't, it only make me stronger
Think I give a fuck bout how you sayin' how I lookin' a video
Bitch, couldn't be wronger
I know you MAAAAD!
Better find your position and learn how to play it
Don't you hate it when a hater
Hatin' on your situation cause they wack ass never made it
Bitch you and BAAAD!
You betta watch your mouth, 'for I watch your house and
Have a nigga come and rock your spouse and
Leave 'em quiet as a mouse when the lights go out and
Your days is OVVAAAA!
So don't make no plans, you don' had your chance and
I'm bout to lock this bitch down and throw away the key
'matter fact even snatch your fans and
I'm takin' OVEEER!
Comin' through with a vengence 'bout to get incents
Did I forget to mention a lot of this tension cause your shit is comin' to an end and
Everytime that Ebony rhymes, every line, I make a nigga pause and drop their jaws
Start sweatin' like they havin' a heat stroke like they going through menopause
And love shittin' they draws
[Chorus]
...don't you ever say I'm scurred.

[Ebony Eyez: Talking]
Ayo... Tar... you ready?
[Tarboy from Trackboys: Talking]
Yeah.uh
[Ebony Eyez]
Let's Do dis.
[Chorus: Tarboy]
Look.uh.
Money ain't never move me...
Dawg, dis ain't a movie
This is real life, so why you tryin' to do me?
Sit back and relax and think about the past
And make your next move your best, it might be your last
[Chorus: Ebony Eyez]
Look.
Money ain't never move me.
Bitch this ain't a movie
Dis is real life, so why you tryin' to do me?
Sit back and relax and think about the past
And make your next move your best, it might be your last
[Verse 1: Tarboy]
Look...
Money don't make the man
but still, I understand
if you ain't gettin' dough, what the fuck you in this for?
I see you chasin hoes, and all your fancy clothes
you say you hate the music, then why you at the show?
What all that yappin' mean?
how the fuck that fit the plan?
where the fuck you from homeboy?
you ain't from my land
I see you in the club, in the corner mean-mugged
with all your little thugs, go pop a bottle of bub
and think about it first
and drink away your problems
before a nigga out here on the streets help you solve them
see, I ain't mad at ya
I'm just tryin' to relax you
and teach you somethin' homie, before them killers snatch you
I try to keep it thorough
Keith done been around the world
and never understood how a man could act like a girl
but see I'm just a squirrel
and this is your world
and I wish you the best
so get it off your chest
[Chorus: Tarboy]
[Chorus: Ebony Eyez]
[Verse 2: Ebony Eyez]
Louie, done made my purse
well, he ain't write this verse
some people put they money first, and don't care who they hurt
always talkin' bout how they: finna do this and finna do that
finna get that new benz and finna buy they girl a cadillac
I try to mind my business, they strike at me with a vengence
don't know I'm young and visicious and know how to throw them fist-es
say I dont keep it real, (what?) say I ain't got the skill
(we) mad cause I got a deal, give a fuck bout how you feel
I represent the streets and that's the way you gotta be
and when my album drop, some people gon' be mad at me
bitches don't wanna listen, don't wanna play position
ain't got a pot to piss in, but they call they self dissin'
your next move should always be your best move
never follow what the rest do, and they'll respect you
Cause money come and go, don't front like you don't know
and when it's all spend up and gone, you ain't got shit to show
[Chorus: Tarboy]
[Chorus: Ebony Eyez]
[Verse 3: J-Kwon]
Now my baby mama hate the fact, now that I'm gettin' scratch
so she go and react, hold up man, matter of a fact
now that I'm thinkin' back, when I ain't had no scratch
no ice, or no 'lac, hold up Kwon rewind it back
now was you gon' react?
that's when I hate the fact, I laid her on her back
(hold up man, don't say that)
nah, let me spit the facts
y'all know I love my son, but she only care about if he got some air force ones
Now ain't that shit dumb? Now where we both come from
Like all your life, you grew up running around spending funds
We was broke as Hammer, t-shirts for pajamas
Cribs small as llamas, eating corn flakes and bananas
Now it's vests and Hummers, we fucked the whole summer
The only reason, cause your man be tryin to take me under
So now I sit and wonder, like I ain't got no clue
And yes it's true, that the money might have moved you
[Chorus: Tarboy]
[Intro]
Dear Father are you wit me?
I jus hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I jus hope these prayers'll fix me
Dear Father are you wit me?
I jus hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I jus hope these prayers'll fix me
[Verse 1]
Say i dont walk right, i dont talk right
I dont eat right, I dont sleep right
What i do right? Who said you right?
Hell with do right, id rather do life
And by tha way pops, i aint forgot about it
Hold my chin up, see i dont pout about it
And when i see you dont think i aint thought about it
But chu know how we do, we jus talk around it
And my last partner, she done went astray
So when i see her in tha club, i dont know what to say
I might be gone tomorrow but im hurr today
And i guess this ought to really matter anyway
Tryna clear ma mind, so i can write this rhyme
Been on tha phone with my man and i know he liein
And at the same time, shit i know he tryin
At the same time, i know hes tryin
[Chorus]
Dear Father are you wit me?
I jus hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I jus hope these prayers'll fix me
Dear Father are you wit me?
I jus hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I jus hope these prayers'll fix me
[Verse 2]
Car leakin oil plus i need a muffler
Now that aint no way to live for a baby mother
Off to tha clinic how'd they miss my cycle?
And my family wonder why im actin spiteful
Test came back, (Shhh) negative
I cant see myself dependin on my relatives
Was a close call, but yet and still, need to call my aunt
To help wit my electric bill, aint got no rest, too much stress
Momma called said they found a lump on her breast
Must be payback for the wrong i did
God please let her live to see her grandkids
Yeah i got furrst, yeah i cried turrs and so what
I aint been to church in 5 yurrs
Only the man above got the right to judge
And if my prayers go unanswered i wont hold a grudge
[Chorus]
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I just hope these prayers will fix me
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I just hope these prayers will fix me
[Verse 3]
Shanda, Cayle, Coccoa, Nini...
Your big sis got cha back if you need me
One day you might see me on TV
But dont ever think that chu would leave me
Cause life can make you or break you
But even through tha hard times stay greatful
As for me i never took a hand-out
Dealt with tha situation never ran out
Id be liein if i said i never had doubts
Alotta times i was down, feelin left out
Was on the outside lookin in
While other people seemed to have tha perfect blend
Just tryna figure what i need to do to win
Dont wanna end up sayin what i coulda been
So lord please i hope that you can hear my cries
This is tha letter to you signed Ebony Eyez
[Chorus]
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I just hope these prayers will fix me
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I just hope these prayers will fix me
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I just hope these prayers will fix me
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I just hope these prayers will fix me
[Outro]
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I just hope these prayers will fix me
Dear Father are you with me?
I just hope you dont forget me
I aint askin for no pity
I usually dont do this on tha first night.
Hold on... what chu want me to do wit that?
Damn, Im at it again.

[Talking]
Ladies follow me now...(moaning)
Damn.my.my batteries low? (shiiit)
[Chorus]
See I don't fuss and fight, if he ain't acting right, I just tell him
(say hello to my little friend)
See I don't bust or spit, if he ain't home yet, you better tell him
(say hello to my little friend)
See I don't give a fuck, if he packin' stuff, just let him go and say
(hello to my little friend)
See I'ma be alright, on the lonely nights, you don't believe me say
(hello to my little friend)
[Verse 1]
now ladies, listen closely to the shit I'm bout to share with you
see, I'ma show you what it take to get the perfect screw
since, ain't nobody speakin' on it, I'ma be the first to say it
And let these niggaz know, they sex is highly overrated
I ain't never been the type, to sit and wait on some nigga
especially, when I know I can make me cum quicker
no, I ain't really interested in how much you packin'
Cause, I got something that can guarantee me satisfaction
And see my tatics, safer than using some pro-ka-lactic
safer than using any other code of action, really though
don't get it twisted, tryin' to think I'm on some right shit
The right dick can turn me on, faster than a light switch
guess I got a fascination when it comes to masturbation
nothing like the sensation, penetratin', got me shakin'
now I caught the midas touch, give me the slightest rush
something bout it makes me blush, the only one I trust
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
now here's something that women do
that I just can't see to phatom, now why the fuck
we walkin' round faking orgasms
ain't nobody speaking on it, ima be the first to say it
And let these niggaz know they sex is highly overrated
I ain't never been the type to waste my time with amateurs
Cause ain't nothing worser than a nigga with no stamina
And then got the nerve to go and run and tell your home boys
well, did you tell them, I had to cum off my own toys?
know a lot of niggaz, gon get mad and say I'm male-bashing
And yeah I know they probably hate this song with a passion
instead of attitude, you should be showing gratitude
tryin' to show you little dudes, an avenue you never knew
A lot of ladies walk around frustrated sexually
when it comes to fixin', they don't know how easy that could be
follow my instructions carefully
I promise you for surely guarantee
that it will make you come faster than a speeding bullet
