[K-Solo] Break it down!
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] Yeah!
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] Lies and rumors, rumors and lies
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] Lies and rumors, rumors and lies
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
Verse One: K-Solo
Who's spreadin all the rumors, who's tellin all the lies?
Solo fell off? You must be drinkin St. Ide's
I'm back in effect on my second cassette
Check the untouched rep, scarin emcees like a bomb threat
Rumors and lies, at the same time try to destroy my name
Is this the price for fame?
If people got money, for rumors and talk
They'd have a lot of millionaires livin here in New York
Three number one hits, should kill the negative vibe
Solo's name and fame could never be denied
It's got me trapped in a corner and I wanna attack
I tried to hold it in before but now I can't hold it back!
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
"K-S-O-L-O" "No longer a fugitive"
Verse Two: K-Solo
I wrote 'Spellbound', to put my face on the map
But rumors have it that another man laid in jail wrote
That's impossible, Kevin Madison will take a stand
If he wrote 'Spellbound', who the hell wrote 'Letterman'?
Mission to make the non-believers there become a witness
When I release the hit, "Tell your moms ta mind her bizness"
It went number two, not far from number one
While the fugitive ran, I came back, to get the job done
Now they wanna tell lies, and take credit from a great
hard working Solo artist, but this'll set em straight
I came back for ninety-two on a Sam Sneed track
I tried to hold it all in, but now I can't hold it back!
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
"K-S-O-L-O" "No longer a fugitive"
Verse Three: K-Solo
Cops won't arrest me, before, but now I'm on a tour
So what they knockin at my mother's door for?
The cash made I received, the money I was worth
But Solo couldn't change, cause I was taught first
to remember who you are, and where you come from
It won't be hard for you to become, number one
I don't like crowds around me ever, only a true friend
can become an enemy so I stay Solo forever
I like it that way, but I hate when people say
Put me down on their record, so I can get paid
If I bring crews and other emcees on stage
and help everybody else, I never stay paid
So I write rhymes for Solo, and help myself
So when I get there, I can give another brother help
Kevin Solo demonstration left others and that's that
I tried to hold it in before but now I can't hold it back!
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
"K-S-O-L-O" "No longer a fugitive"
Verse Four: K-Solo
Now I got a new album, and a tape and a CD
And those who thought I fell off were really surprised to see
K-S-O-L-O throwin down and all the rumors
and the lies that they were spreadin couldn't keep me down!
Back out my face, keep my name out your mouth
This record got your cornered and there's no way out
Solo killed all the rumors cause I had to attack
I tried to hold it in before but now I can't hold it back!
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
[K-Solo] I can't hold it back
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Lies, rumors, rumors and lies)
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)
(Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo! Let it go Solo!)

Yeah, tell your moms to mind her business
Your mom's in my business, she's in my business
Can't you see, girl, that your mom's trying to end this?
Your mom's in our business
Now tell your moms to mind her business before I let go
Your mom's in our business, she's in our business
Can't you see, girl, that your mom's trying to end this?
Your mom's in our business
Now tell your moms to mind her business before I let go
When I first met your moms, I gave your mom respect
But now I see she knows me, I see that she suspects
I'm some bad guy, I don't know why
You have to tell your mother lies about you and I
But when your first told me, she said that I was a no, no
'Cause of my haircut and people call me Solo
Before the time you said, you really didn't care
Now you tell me to change my name or even cut my hair
How would you ever go become somebody's wife
And at the age of 22, you let your mother run your life?
Me, I'm not the type to tell your moms to get lost
Yell out loud to flip and get my point across
See I think you should tell your moms to leave us two alone
And stop reading our love letters and eves dropping on the phone
Cause if you really liked my, you'd let your mommy know
She gotta mind her business before I let go
Your mom's in our business, she's in our business
Can't you see girl that your mom's trying to end this?
Your mom's in our business
Now tell your moms to mind her business before I let go
Now tell your moms to mind her business before I let go
Remember your sister and her boyfriend Sam Seed?
Your momma's the real reason why your sister lost her man
Her and Sam went together, for a real long time
But Sam controlled her body while your mom controlled her mind
Not saying she was hurt when your moms made 'em break up
Deep down I could tell, though, your sister wanted to make up
With Sam, because she wanted to become his wife
And now she can't do that because your mother runs her life
You baby, you do the same things, too
You always want to do the crazy things
Your mommy wants you to do
Like when we went to the movie, she had to come along
I went back and forth and forth and back for peanuts and popcorn
She took advantage, 'cause I was living fat
I couldn't even watch the movie, she kept me running back
For something that she wanted somewhere else in the store
I walked and got it all 'til the man said there's no more
And when I got back to the car, she took her time to move over
When I sat in the car, my movie was like over
I was mad, hurt, I didn't want to talk
Deep down I wanted you and your mommy both to walk
I took you home anyway, like what the heck
'Cause I was raised to treat people's mothers with respect
But when we got to your home, we wasn't left alone
She waited there in the car with us until I headed home
You called me on the phone, saying you were alone
But that's a lie because I heard your moms breathing on the phone
And if you really like me, let your moms know
She should mind her business before I let go
Your mom's in our business, she's in our business
Can't you see girl that your mom's trying to end this?
Your mom's in our business
Now tell your moms to mind her business before I let go
Now tell your moms to mind her business before I let go
Without a doubt, me, like when I come to your house
She'll ask me crazy questions and start looking in my mouth
Her friends start laughing and I feel just like a jerk
I told 'em I don't know where my mom and dad work
I really know where they work, but that's between them and me
I can't be putting mom and dad's business in the street
'Cause if I told her that my family both work for the state
Right after that she would've asked me how much money do they make
Then she'd go around the town, bragging and boasting
Telling the neighborhood what my family's grossing
Your moms, your moms, why is she so nosy?
She plays me like a game but I'm no ring-around-the-rosy
I even seen your dad at the family barbecue
He said, "I don't see nothing wrong with my daughter seeing you"
But it's your wife mister, she don't think that I'm charming
She thinks she's Mr. Whippit and she thinks I'll squeeze her Charmin
I promise, I won't do this to your daughter, calm man
'Cause when I'm with girls, my reputation is not harming
If I'm not on tour, I'm working out at my house
I'll pick your daughter up sometime, and I'll even take her out
And every time I try to do this, I see without a doubt
Your wife will follow me around like a cop on a stakeout
And when I told the man that, I thought he would help me out
'Til he said, "I can't tell her nothing, she'll kick me out the house"
See, I know you girls, I know you girls
I know you girls, I know you girls
Mothers love you and they're concerned
But if you don't solve your own problems
Then how can you learn?
And guys, if you're in a relationship like this
Don't be afraid to tell your girlfriend
Tell your moms to mind her business
But after me and you girl, I'd rather stay solo
Because your moms can't mind her business
I'm a have to let you go
Because your mom is in my business
Your mom's in our business, she's in our business
Can't you see girl that your mom's trying to end this?
Your mom's in our business
Now tell your moms to mind her business before I let go

Black America, tell me who's killing who?
Black America,
Killing each others
Dying in the hands of the young black sisters and brothers
They're killing their own race
Go anywhere in black america and you'll see that's only face
To watch Black America cry, no one see no one, DIE
I blow this delight to keep'em alive
We've got to change the reflexions of the majority
you look in the mirror of Black America
Tell me who's killing who?
Drug dealers are doin' the cherry in our community
Destroy Black America, brother where's your unity ?
And see throughout the subject that we must talk about
That we can point the Black America that sells drugs to
A kid who don't even know her mom's your biggest customer
They're home starving 'cause you're always selling drugs to her
And what did you do with the money?
You went and bought mo' drugs so you can make mo' money
And kill the hope and dreams right in Black America eyes
Lettin' the few to know that drug is a way to survive
If you don't respect one another then help one another
Will destroy one another and that's what they want my brother
You killing me, and I'm killing you
Now stop and ask yourself how can the black dream come true
We got to change the reflexions of the majority
You view in the mirror of mirror of Black America
Tell me who's killing who?
Black man gotta stop calling the women a bitch
You're mother is a black woman too
So that's make you a son of a bitch
This is the wrong word to use my brother
That same word kept our black women back in the gutter
Nobody was there to pick a black lady up
In Black America, where time is rough
U didn't care and it went away 'cause she was that to you
My point is Black America
Tell me who's killing who?
We fought together, lived together
And if we don't get it together we all die together
'Cause all we got is each other
Black american girls and boys and black fathers and mothers
Get involved with the children, it starts at home
The Black America we save, could be our own
We gotta change the reflexions of the majority
You view in the mirror of Black America
Tell me who's killing who?
Black America tell me, who's killing who?
killing me, killing you, killing you

Tales From The Crack Side
Tales From The Crack Side
Tales From The Crack Side
I woke up in the morning, on a regular day
I knew my man named R, would be around my way
I brushed my hair, my teeth, suddenly I washed my face
Then he came over my house with the drug base
He kept saying if I take one hit of a pipe
I write records to rhyme before the rest of the night
I said, "R, I don't do drugs, or drugs are whack"
And ain't that base drug like a drug, CRACK
He said no Solo, see base is the shit
Girls puff of base, and everybody does it
He left off quick and left me the base and the pipe
And I thought I write a record a rhyme, before I reach night
I said if that's true, but any case
I couldn't wait to write my record after I smoke the base
He left the crib, I heard the telephone
It was my mom telling to watch my sister 'till she gets home
I hung up the phone, with no time to waste
I put my sister in the kitchen so I could smoke the base
It had a funny taste but it didn't taste bad I felt hot
That's when I got my pen and pad
I wrote a rhyme it was funky
I broke in a race
'Cause the rhy that I wrote, tried to run off my page
I said, "Stop rhyme"
Then I grabbbed the rhyme and cut the rhyme
That I've seen running in my sight
I got a mind was happy when I thought the rhyme was dead
Some leaf swong and caught me square on the head
I fell on my floor and
The rhyme grabbed the knife
And cut my little sister
I thought it took her life
She fell on the floor, blood covered the rug
The rhyme was left and to my surprise I knew something was bugged
I got on the phone to call the cops, "what should I do?"
You'd did the same thing if you was in my shoes
As I started talking I seen the rhyme run by
And hit me with a can of ravioli in my eye
I fell on the floor look and when my vision cleared
I looked around the house and see the rhyme disappeared
I started to cry I said, "Oh, what would my mom say?"
That's when I heard a cop pulled up into the driveway
She came in the house she took a look at the place
See my sister still bleeding the knife and the base
She said, "You cut your sister while you were smoking that shit"
I said, "Mom, I didn't cut 'er, the rhyme did it"
I knew this was the truth, mom thought it was a lie
Some of y'll might even think it's just a Tale From The Crack Side
A Tale From The Crack Side
A Tale From The Crack Side
Mom was crying, she ran in shocked
Got on the phone, and then she started crying to the cops
So I ran out the door, and I looked for
The rhyme that cut my sister, who bled on my floor
I got in the yard, went out ran out in the street
I had to duck behind some trees 'cause I seen the police
When they ran in my house and shut up the block
I see my girl far coming to my house, and my jaw dropped
I said, "Baby stop," but yo she kept on walking
I knew pretty soon, the cops would be hawking
I never knew the trouble I was really headed for
'Till the rhyme appeared again dressed in Santa Claus
He said, "Ho Ho Ho baby you look great"
And told me dead on my face my girl was gonna get raped
Me watching this whole thing it was blowing my mind
'Cause my girl was getting raped by this musical rhyme
He was sliding in fast my girl cried for help
I grabbed a stick, you know and Solo went for self
I hit the rhyme in the head and seen him drop
But hen the rhyme disappeared and all I seen was cops
They were coming for me fast I couldn't escape
Besides my girl was on the ground butt-naked yelling and raped
One cop gave 'er a coat and said "M.s are you alright?"
Another cop said that's the kid that cut his sister with the knife
I told them my name, I tried to explain
They heard the side of my story
They said "Boy you insane" you raped this girl too
Come on and just admit it
I said, "Man, I didn't rape 'her, the rhyme did it"
I knew this was the truth but cops thought it was a lie
Some of y'll might even think it just a Tale From The Crack Side
A Tale From The Crack Side
A Tale From The Crack Side
A Tale From The Crack Side
The cops tried to catch me, so I ran like hell
I needed someone to talk to, someone to tell
'Cause all these things were happening they where blowing my mind
See, I knew I didn't do this, I knew it was a rhyme
But who would believe me in any high state of mind
If they ask me who did it, and I say it was a rhyme
The cops didn't buy it, this is why I 'm being chased
Then my mom told the cops that I was high, on base
I'm running I'm sweating
I suddenly knew that I had to get the piece out as fast as I can, so
I shoot up this corner, run up another block
Looked over my shoulders, and seen I lost the cops, then
I ran to his door, bang like a ring or two
He said "Solo, hey man the cops are looking for you"
I said, "Thanks to you the base and that pipe"
"I wrote a rhyme high last night and the rhyme came alive"
He started to laugh, said "Yeah right!"
I said, "It raped my girl on the block, and cut my sister with a knife"
He started laughing, he thought it was a joke
He said, "Yo Solo you had a little too much to smoke"
I grabbed him in the jaw, we started fighting on the floor
Suddenly that's when I heard someone that was coming from the door
To conclusion, enter my mind, I said
"Could it be the cops, or the rhyme"
But before when I told 'em my man pay me no mind
And when the door opened up, it came the rhyme
With a hammer in his hand he tried to hit me in the head
I ducked, but the hammer hit P instead
I started braeking then, I said this must be a nightmare
He was screaming on the floor and there was blood everywhere
I got on the phone, called the cops
She went into shock
And when I hung up the phone, cops was on the block
I stuck my head out the door, said, "Help me the rhyme is in here"
But then he dropped the hammer, again he disappeared
The cops kept asking me how did he get hit
I kept trying to tell the cops "Yo, the rhyme did it"
They didnt' buy it, they said "Boy you're bug"
"You can save that rhyme story, for the lawyer or the judge"
I get there the D.A. and judge still wouldn't listen
They gave me fifteen to twenty-five years in prision
They take me somewhere, far state
For attempted murder, assault too and rape
My family won't talk to me, my friends wont' see me
My girl now hates me, and she don't wanna marry me
'Cause when this all dawned on me
It wasn't a rhyme it was just base technique
So I tell kids and adults in this place
This could happen to y'll if y'll smoke crack or base
So do yourself a favor stay away from this
Or you'll be in jail like I was yelling the rhyme did it
No one will believe you, they'll think you're telling a lie
And your life will become another, Tale From The Crack Side

[K-Solo]
Yeah..
K-Solo back in here for ninety-two
Throwin niggaz to the curb
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
My microphone's rock heavy and my mic stand's bent
Worser than any soft song cause all my rhymes are made of cement
When I add wise words water with compound
result's the earthquakes when my mic hits my ground
Vocabulary I wrote, from a stone age
I wrote the concrete rhyme on asphault, and got paid
Bricks and cinder blocks enter my mind fold
Results in words as small as gravel, to hard paved rap roads
I won't forget where I'm from, I thank God for stardom
I'm a hard rock from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
The K's my home, the tune's my room
I sit on a cinder block and watch all my ideas bloom
I'm sittin in my room and I'm thinkin
My world is surface water, and just becaues I'm hard I'm sinkin
If I can live life like a bridge
and remain hard above the water that's the way I'd love to live
I air hard rhymes I might record em, this means
when the bridges come tumblin down now I'm in the water
Like a pebble, a rock, or a brick I can't swim
I bottle this, drown it in my rhythm
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
My word'sll stick to any beats and mix like cement
My DJ sidewalk scratches will leave potholes in the pavement
Two stones, make as headphones, they hear the cuts
Kill the amp, to make, my mic amplitude stone
My hand holds a boulder, my army of pitbulls
protect me, the hardrock soldier
Four paws, with locked jaws, GOT EM
"Yo.. yo.. my style's aggressive"
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
K-Solo, is from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
Throwin niggaz to the curb, yaknahmsayin?
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom
"My rhymes are heavy like a rock so I'ma throw em like a bolo.."
I'm from the rock bottom

[K-Solo]
Long live the Fugitive..
Long live the Fugitive..
Always doin jail records, yaknahmsayin?
I'll always write about jail
Long live the Fugitive..
Everybody that gets locked up ain't always guilty yaknahmsayin?
Cops stop me on the block with my girl in my car
and found out I'm K-Solo the Fugitive, now known as a rap star
I put the car in park and asked the cop what's the trouble
They said, "License and registration, Fugitive on the double"
In my jacket, I reached in, before I heard the sound
They grabbed the sticks in the daylight, and started beatin me down
My head and back hurt all over yo I woke up handcuffed
hearin my girl screamin, "Are you alright Solo?"
I told the cops y'all can go to hell
They said, "Remember Corky?" Corky? "Yeah we know his family well
Times up, you're headed back to a jail cell"
Jail's a place I used to live
and I'll be back with more and more hard jail cuts
Long live the Fugitive.. "K-S-O-L-O"
Long live the Fugitive.. "K-S-O-L-O"
Long live the Fugitive.. "K-S-O-L-O"

I was in my room writing rhymes I H-A-D had
Next to my room was a laboratory run by my D-A-D dad
He was a professor, and I'm his S-O-N
So my life as a professor had just begun, my name is
K-E-V-I-N-M-A-D-I-S-O-N run the experiment I qualify
and become a good professor in medicine
I ran out my door, and I looked for
a breakbeat, spelling book, and grabbed my dog, "Woof!"
Rhymes that I had, every muscle from his body
The combination of that will give me strength, to rock a party
I thought that I might, get H-U-R-T hurt
if I used dad's melachalonin machine that was known to convert
No manual that I could find on dad's machine
I hit a button and this rumor turned the laboratory green
Some hairs was from my dog and a pair from mine
Hit the switch I spelled a rhyme the chromosome, will mix with mine
This uncanny combination will let the world understand
Professor Kevin Madison changed to the incredible Letterman!

Household Maid
Yo, Red
You know what I'm sayin?
We ain't tell a story about all these girls we used to bang when we was young
Brothers see, they don't believe us
So ehm - I guess I'll start tellin...
A story when I was young
When I first got pussy
Check it out
[VERSE 1]
It was in '77, well at least I think so
Way before the people knew me as K-S-o-l-o
We moved from Queens to Long Island and my moms had it made
But mom was workin two jobs, she said, "Son, I want me a maid"
We went to this agency that was on Broadway
So mom could fill out the papers and see about a maid
When we got there we seen a man who sat behind a desk
He said, "I'm sorry, miss, but ain't too many good maids left
But I'll show you some pictures of all the maids we got here"
I looked and seen this maid who looked like Pam Grier
I said, "Hey mom, let's get that maid, ooh, she looks like my teacher"
Mom said, "Okay" and asked the man, "Can we meet her?"
He pressed a button, said a name, she was there in a flash
Mom signed some papers, gave her money, and everything was done fast
On the way home I could look and see she looked young
And by the way she had me laughin, ooh, I knew she was fun
But somethin was wrong, I couldn't figure it out
Till one day me and the maid were alone in my house
I was in my room readin a book
She came inside my room naked and told me, "Kevin, take a look"
From her feet to her body, I stared at shock
As I stared at her breast and her hairy provoc'
She had a real bad body, I was put in a trance
But snapped out of that trance when she unzipped my pants
She wrapped her legs around me, she began to tease me
Whispered in my ear, "Do you think you can please me?"
I said, "Yes", I couldn't fess
And then the maid grabbed my young hand and put it on her grown chest
She started seducin me, right there on the floor
She said, "The better you get, you'll get more and more"
Juices started movin fast, and she started goin
"I'm comin, I'm comin", I said, "Stop, where are you goin?"
She paid me no mind, I guess she knew I was young
I guess she said "It's for kids", but I was havin my fun
As she went up and down, and side to side
To make me slippery and wet as I went inside
The maid moaned and groaned, moved my hips
Blew in my ear, in my face and went and tongue-licked my lips
I was only 11 and in the 6th grade
No one believed that I made love to the household maid
No one believed that I made love to the household maid
You know what I'm sayin, Red?
No one believed that I made love to the household maid
Yo, yo, yo
Pee, man, what's up
Redman don't believe me, man
Check the next verse out
Check out the next verse
No one believed that I made love to the maid...
[VERSE 2]
It happened again when I came from the park
Mom was workin late and the house looked dark
There was a note at the door, 'Son, dinner's in the oven'
Steak and potatos with blueberry muffins
But before I could get any food in my jaws
I seen a bra and a woman's panties on the living room floor
Where could she be, cause this I'm sure, mom could never see
The maid was in the room, butt naked cleanin the room for me
She grabbed my comic book, put it on her behind
Opened it up and said, "Hey, read between the line"
I love to read about the Incredlible Hulk
But when the maid grabbed me, she invaded the incredible bulk
On the floor by the AFX track, sweat comin from the back
Moms workin, we don't when she'll come back, black
I''m only 11 and in the 6th grade
No one believed that I made love to the household maid
Break it down, Solo
Gettin busy for 1992, you know what I'm sayin?
Mad true stories
Nobody believe me, you know what I'm sayin?
Yo, PMD, man
Brothers be goin out, man, on the strenght, man
Lyin about butt, man
You know what I'm sayin?
Yo, Redman, on the strenght...

I ran like a rebel in '85
Cops tried to catch me 'cause all of 'em said
I beat up these other men who were bigger than me
Was it because I was black and they were W H I T E
Here I was walking down the block
I seen these two big bikers standing by the biker's shop
They seen it was me so to make theyself feel bigger
One got bad bold, pointed and called me a nigger
I suck my finger up, I said, "His mother" and kept stepping
His friend told his other friend, "Hey Cauky, let's get him"
I looked to my back to my surprise
One had a chain in his hand and the Devil in his eye
I said, "I'm in trouble, let me think real quick"
I looked down at the ground and got this big fat brick
With no time to waste I put the brick in my hand
And then the biker took the chain fell out of his hand
Then his friend Crotty said, "Cauky, are you alright?"
But what he didn't know was he was in for a fight
The right in his jaw, he fell on the floor
The kid I hit with the brick before said, "Don't hit him anymore"
I put my brick down, left him on the ground
Everything was cool till the cops came around
They said, "You're under arrest for assault 2 and 3"
I laughed at the copper and said, "Explain this to me"
He said, "You hit the man with a brick and punched another in the jaw
And left the scene like nothing happened and then they called the law"
I laughed in his face, I said, "This don't make sense
It was two against my black ass, this makes this an offense"
He tried to grab me, so I pushed him on the floor
And ran my black ass home and locked the living room door
I did what any black kid would have did
But to the coppers of the county, I'm known as a fugitive
I had to go to school, I couldn't be late
If I miss another day Mrs. Cann said I wouldn't graduate
I didn't go a lot, that didn't mean I didn't care
I had to come to school more often to try again next year
Fuck that, I went to school and I tried
You know to hide from the cops to June of '85
I get my diploma and things would be straight
Find out my graduation cops came and tried to put me on the gate
I ran though with the diploma that I owned
With cops chasing me all the way till I got home
I got away gain, why, you know what I did?
I ran my black ass home and to them I'm still a fugitive
Two years went by, me running from the cops
My mom looked at my dad, my dad said, "Son, this has gotta stop"
Dad gave me money, he said, "Son, this is for ya"
I went to Garden City to go get me a lawyer
I went to jail, Monday I was in jail through Friday
When you're black and you're in trouble man does your lawyer get paid
Then my moms told the judge, "My son's a good child"
Then he laughed at my mother and said, "Then take us to trial"
I told my mom and dad I felt within
If we took Suffix County to court or trial, I know I wouldn't win
So without a doubt, like any black kid in Suffix county
K S O L O had to cop out
To sixteen months in River head
Instead of fighting and wilding, I wrote my records instead
Comisarry was [unverified] inmates owed me
CO's would beat me up on shakedowns
But now those suckers know me
And I laugh at those cops who arrest me for what I did

You have taken me all the way down Down upon my knees You have broken me all the way now Tell me how it feels
Some fight you gave When I pushed you away from me
In the morning when you turn in I'll be fast asleep In the darkness when you find this I'll be out of reach
You have broken me all the way down You'll be the last, you'll see You'll be the last
What chance have we got When you missed every shot?
In the morning when you turn in I'll be fast asleep In the brightness when you find this I'll be out of reach

These white tufts of your vapour trail have sprouted and taken root It's like you're at the big shiny wheel where candyfloss is born and grows as the stick turns Spinning out your vapour trail
I head north, stopping at stations with rainbow diesel stains Singing accents of teenagers and hills not black but green rolling out to sea as you're spinning out your vapour trail
These people hold me and I hold them These people hold me and I hold them
With these arms that reach beyond the grave to the lives that grew from such embrace I was cast as a bit player Throwin hollow shapes on a hollow stage as you're spinning out your vapour trail
Your people hold me and I hold them Your people hold me and I hold them
You underline the sky with all you've left behind spinning out your vapour trail
These white tufts of your vapour trail have sprouted and taken root When thrown in at the deep end Friendship can be forced fondness not so much

Night can't come quick enough
My faults shine in the sun
A train bridge of spies
watches all the cars collide
I roll my green sleeves over ruby
I don't blame you for doing it to me
Real girls don't take aim
like kings do these days
I made my mind up to be a black-winged bird
Never turn my head for how things were
Leave the bluest skies for boys to burn
And I'll soar on my way
Sad as the state of things we can't change
Now were paper dolls all aflame
In houses that all look the same
Rows of regret
An arson for a wilderness
I hide my saints in the willow trunk
You started me on this junk
Now my black lungs are blue
But I'm still singing to you

We sail the dark oceans on our ship of souls but the tiller is spinning out of control I've been speaking with aliens, they've agreed to abduct everyone but you So we can start again
There's ice on the masthead there's plague in the hold but you've gone off looking for your precious black gold I've been speaking with aliens and they've agreed to adopt everyone but you So we can start again
Well come on the aliens, my friends the aliens, sweet little aliens come on So we can start again

Your lips come as some surprise,
That they would want to come and meet mine,
They never taste like the last time,
Your lips come as some surprise!
I was always a special child,
Circuit boards for my insides.
All I dreamed of was flying high,
So your lips came as some surprise.
Your lips come as some surprise,
That they would want to come and meet mine,
They never taste like the last time,
Your lips come as some surprise!
I was never one of the boys
Throwing shapes and power ploys.
In your arms warmth I did find,
In your seat I did decline.
Your lips come as some surprise,
That they would want to come and meet mine,
They never taste like the last time,
Your lips come as some surprise!
Now that we've sat for a while
You've shown me yours and I've shown you mine
Even after all this time
Your lips come as some surprise.
Your lips come as some surprise,
That they would want to come and meet mine,
They never taste like the last time,
Your lips come as some surprise!
Your lips come as some surprise!
