High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), also known as H.265 and MPEG-H Part 2, is a draft video compression standard, a successor to H.264/MPEG-4 AVC (Advanced Video Coding), currently under joint development by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG). MPEG and VCEG have established a Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC) to develop the HEVC standard. HEVC is said to improve video quality and double the data compression ratio compared to H.264, and scales from 320 × 240 to 7680 × 4320 pixels resolution.
The ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) began significant study of technology advances that could enable creation of a new video compression standard (or substantial compression-oriented enhancements of the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC standard) in about 2004. Various techniques for potential enhancement of the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC standard were surveyed in October 2004. At the next meeting of VCEG, in January 2005, VCEG began designating certain topics as "Key Technical Areas" (KTA) for further investigation. A software codebase called the KTA codebase was established for evaluating such proposals in 2005. The KTA software was based on the Joint Model (JM) reference software that was developed by the MPEG & VCEG Joint Video Team for H.264/MPEG-4 AVC. Additional proposed technologies were integrated into the KTA software and tested in experiment evaluations over the next four years.

sick of working eight hours a day
sick of working for minimum wage
pray to God there's got to be a better way
pray to God that something in my life will change
time is up
the door is open
time is up
where am i goin
the change has come
i pray it's his perfect plan
the door is opened
and put me in another band
we're gonna hit the road
we're gonna play some shows
where we go nodoby knows
i cannot help myself
what will the future bring?
where is the open door?
where are you taking me?
Make it bang dun tight the noose
We can hang one
Thought he was my dog
Now we got to cut off love
Ain't it bad news
When a nigga AWOL crew
You don't like us fuck it then we hate ya'll too
Handle business
What up that coke you flew
MOBB is who you be losing to
Gats tossed like jewels get flossed
Get an ass beat from a real nigga you crossed
QBC representative
Sip the E & J sedative
3rd time felon predicate
Put my money on
Can't lose stompin on
Shorty dime piece front I'm going all out
Probably catch me on the street ODin on stout
On my way to cop gats on discount
In the Navigator half sleep with beer on my breath
If a nigga front play him to the left
When it come to gettin dough or letting guns blow out a 4
When you got the blue steel to your back pimp your stack or lay flat
What it is Bronx and Queensbridge that's real
What it is Bronx and Queensbridge
What you thinking this is
We play for keeps in this biz
Yall copycats trying to do what we did
Money we gettin it
3 ways we splittin it
Mamis I'm rippin it
Suck it while I'm whippin this
2000 fly shit through the Bronx
Rotten apple take a bite of this
We survivalists
Born into violence
When niggas hear me rhyme they be actin wildest
Y'all deserve this
On this my flow flawless
If you in your crib then record this
Change up chicks every 2 weeks
When I get bored with rhyme awkward
But still the boss in this like godfather
Went from 5 dollars rockin agua pisada
Hardcore like piragua
Load the clip in
Rappers act like they're flippin
You want to send me off to war
To fight and fight and fight some more
Will i fight for this country?
Take vengence on the enemy
I hear the people saying "american pride"
And i see the hatred in their eyes
Now i feel the war is lost
Who will die and at what cost?
Don't brainwash me
Don't brainwash me
Try to kill the enemy
Now america is on the attack
We want revenge well pay them back
My conviction wont be compromised
War is murder in disguise
Now big brothers on my back
Saying the enemy needs to die
Now i feel the war is lsot
Who will die and at what cost?
Don't brainwash me
Don't brainwash me
Try to kill the enemy
Ill die
Youll die
Well all die
Whos gonna die?
You want to send me off to war
I wont fight in your unholy war
My conviction wont be compromised
Murder, corruption
Let put aside the issues
That are tearin us apart
We got a long way to go
But nows perfect time to start
So quit waiting around for everybody else
To say it's ok
Their approval is a barrier
And it's gettin in the way
What a difference does it make
If they think it's not alright
Don't care if they think it's wrong or right
Another option that means nothing to me
Another restriction controlling me
We wont take it, no we wont take it
Nothing in the world can stop us now
We wont take it, no we wont take it
Don't ever bother trying to keep us down
We wont take it, no we wont take it
Nothing in the world can stop us now
We wont take it, no we wont take it
Were gonna show them
That were the ones in control
An uprise that was once unexpected
Is now coming unfold
So forget about that past
And what you think you know
Our time is at hand now
And it wont be coat rolled
Generation after generation weve
Been pushed further down with
Hopes that we would eventually
Forever dismissed cause were
Coming back strong and were
Coming back pissed
You don't know us weve
Get home from school
And walk through the door
So stressed from your day
You pass out on the floor
But it's not long before you're reminded
Why you hate going home living in a prison
Where no one leaves you alone
Tired of the yelling and being pushed around
Being told your worhtless and letting everyone down
No escape from your nightmare
No escape from yourself
No one to turn to
No escape from this hell
American family, american dream
It doesnt't exist, things aren't what they seem
Mommy's a slut and daddy's always drunk
And the bruises on your face never go untouched
American dream
Remember your not alone, there's a way out
No room for fear, no time for doubt
Don't let them tell you, you'll never be any thing
The sky fills with smoke and moon's glowing red
The fires grow beyond control, more and more they spread
An inferno of loss, more lives erased
Painful memories that nothing can replace
Burnin' like a fuse distinct in its' sound
He'll laugh as it crumbles, rubble on the ground
Your evyes being to burn and your lungs fills with smoke
Fall down on your knees, and he'll watch you choke
Fear is the beginning, turmoil the end
No chance of escaping, Agony within
Sad day forever, but many lie ahead
(feat. Fat Joe, Remi Martin)
[Fat Joe]
Dear mama, I'm writin' you this letter from the kitchen
Seems to hard, times your the only one who listens
After the action, tone's still listen
And you know how sometimes it gets lonely in prison
Not behind bars, but between my inner self
Can't trust these streets, fiends'll kill you for your
wealth
It seems like the game done changed, niggas ain't loyal
no more
Best friends act strange
Did the best I could, fed the hood
Went to school, showed the youth to perfect their books
When my niggas got locked, up to comissary stock
Visit every jail from Marcy to Comstock
Now niggas wanna plot like they movin' somethin'
Must wanna get shot, you ain't provin' nothin'
Uhn, must of forgot all the dudes I put in
If we only had a chance to review the footage
You would see I'm not a nice guy after all
And I fight much better when my back's to the wall
I clap at your door, put your backs on the floor
Wanna war with the Don? It' the wrath that you want!
[Chorus: Havoc]
Yo, if you feel me then feel me
If you gonna kill me then kill me
But I gotta let ya'll niggas know
That I roll with that steel
You can call me paranoid
But a nigga on point
And I'm thinkin' somethin' fishy
If you up in my grill
[Remi Martin]
You wanna know what my life's like, bitch?
Mine's is real, chicks talk about it
I been bustin' nines for real
Too many times I had to stand up on the line for meals
Too many nights I done seen niggas die for real
I'm striving still, everybody lies and steals
It's seems like it's gotten worse since I signed my
deal
Ask anyone who knows me, I don't give a fuck
That's my motto
These motherfuckers is actin' like I just hit the lotto
And now everytime I see you, 'Remi where that weed at?'
'Wasn't you just pregnant, bitch, where the fuckin'
seed at?'
Can I hold? Let me borrow, come on, I don't need that
I can recall days when Remi didn't have a place to
sleep at
Where was you back when I was sellin' cracks and
Barely fuckin' eatin', nigga, where was your ass then?
Now I'm in the cut with a blunt, nigga, laughin'
A Benz coup, a condo, and a check I'm steady cashin'
Told ya'll niggas that I spaz over reflex
Now you niggas can't pass through the PJs
Fuck ya'll bitches, I don't love ya'll bitches
Cause if it comes down to it, I'll slug ya'll bitches
[Chorus]
[Havoc]
Am I holdin' it down?
Afraid so, youngun
Not for nothin', niggas frontin'
When they claimin' you thuggin'
Raw cut him, dunn, he went against the grain
So fuck him, and it's real
He ended up with the doctors pluggin him
These streets raised me, and made me cold
When there's drama like a ducthy I come ready to roll
Had a passion for Henney, now I'm thuggin with Remi
And Joe, give these motherfuckers somethin' to +envy+
It's sad, fuckin' ?? keep the heat on the dash
It's simple, math, front get one in the ass
And you laughin', your whereabouts police be askin'
It baffles, cause you know these fingerprints ain't
matchin'
Get at you, and dogg, it was about bound to happen
Sleep, fuck around, get your shit pushed +Deep+
Bang this, where the Bloods and Crips?
Cause you know I'm only reppin' for that gangsta shit,
get up
Here we go again another night, another bar
This town is all right
Waiting months to see my friends at the show
Fifty more days and I'll be home
Wishing more and more I was still on the road
(feat. 50 Cent , Big Noyd)
[H] Yeah
[50] Yeah
[H] It's real, it's real
[50] Yeah
[H] Got 'em
[Chorus: 50 Cent]
Bump that - niggaz try to stunt on my clique
Then when I get on that shit, I bring it to 'em
where they pump at, 12-gauge Mausberg
No shell in the head 'fore you put in work
You gotta pump that - you done hit a nigga with it
and you runnin, the police is comin, take my advice
nigga
Dump that - this is serious, these rap niggaz
I'm just havin fun with it, 50 Cent, Havoc bump that
[50 Cent]
My son asked, 'Daddy why you carry a gun, you ain't a
cop'
I looked at him and said, 'Sometimes you gotta shoot or
get shot
Wanna go to show-and-tell and show the class my glock?
Show 'em the clip, show 'em the beam, show 'em how
Daddy lean'
In the convertible Jag, 22-inch mags
For a high school dropout, shit, that ain't bad
I'm ain't a Blood or a Crip, I'm doin my own thang
G-UNIT! Shit, I done started my own gang
I don't go that funny dance, I don't throw gang signs
But I'm a gangsta to the core so I stay with a nine
You think all I do is rap, then you don't know me good
Have Smurf hangin out the sunroof to light up yo' hood
Man, Carlito ain't never seen Blanco comin
But if he did, you think he woulda started runnin?
And I move with them Doublemint Twins, and two macs
I'll leave you flat your back - BRRRAT! Take that
[Chorus]
[Noyd]
Uh-huh, aiyyo, aiyyo, aiyyo
My life story is that gangsta thing, packin that thing
Iced out diamond rings; fuck linen
It's Timbs and jeans, puffin cigars, stuff it with
greens
What's fuckin with Queens? Nuttin and not a thing
We kings of rap, shanks and gats, knuckles and bats
Get at me, you want beef, come correct
Stunt on any nigga in my clique-ah, you get clapped
We sick, so quick, you be layin on your back
Cause we don't give a fuck nigga, we love to dump
You don't wanna get jumped, better turn yo' music up
And bump that - cause we comin with them guns black
And cause of the hoodrats, know where your home's at
Fuck that, this is for my niggaz in the hoods that
slingin them blue caps, smokin that chronic sack
Get that paper, watch for all haters
Snitches and them bitches and them inside traders
Nigga fuck that
[Chorus]
[Havoc]
Yeah, yeah
If you trippin with my niggaz 50 and Noyd
If anybody ask me nigga them my homeboys
When it come to drama know we pack them big gats
(We got a ton of slugs) Bitch, and it's like that
We them thirsty ones, no mask, we stick cats
I never handcuff a ho, I let you whip that
Let my money bubble, live off the kick back
This midnight shit is serious, where your kids at?
These streets too dangerous to let them roam
I done seen the gulliest of 'em, cry for home
Like a fish out of water, they gasp and shake
I'm a friend of the jooks and the dukes and the duct
tape
Like a Down South nigga I won't stop 'til I'm
'skraight'
Walkin up the street, testin out my heat
Uh-huh.. and as you stand in disbelief
When it comes to the slugs I ain't cheap
Nigga you know I..
My niggas flippin' it all day
Either on the corners or up in the hallways
Coke from Cuba, but they got it on Broadway
Pitchers on the front stoop, shooters in the doorway
...you a marble in the jacuzzi
The elevator ride to the top'll make you woozy
Either shootin' the Uzi or the MK
Starter in the game, you just get in when the bench play
At your door with the four, "bonjour" like the French say
Nigga you just plain, cut you up like a sensei
Take you down like the statue at Penn State
Get you off your feet like an Olajuwon head fake
Come, come, comin' with Havoc to bring the havoc
Lightin' the chronic, Techtronics and automatics
Beware of the short niggas
Yeah I'm cool, but I'll motherfuckin' torch niggas
All along...
Been them niggas that been reppin' in your favorite rap songs
Hold it for the hood, it's money over broads
And we hustle in the cold 'til the whole pack gone
All along...
Been them niggas that been reppin' in your favorite rap songs
Hold it for the hood, it's money over broads
And we hustle in the cold 'til the whole pack gone
I'm one in a million, diamond in the rough
Supplying that stuff that got every whip that I drive
Tough lion took steroids, olympian status
Gold medalling them niggas, ain't nothin' 'bout me average
Cannons bigger than me, we go deaf when we shoot 'em
And niggas on the floor with they cerebellum oozin'
Ice picks in pencil pockets and nines on they waistbands
Money over bitches, we smother then we ditch 'em
I'll have 'em bag 'em up, butt-ass in the kitchen
I'mma leave bitches foamin' at the mouth
Fuck what you heard, it wasn't drought, they lied
Over here it's all the way gully
In the morning, answer to God's calling
Snoring, I can't afford to sleep, the cousin of death
The city never sleeps, so why the fuck would I rest?
It's all about the motherfuckin' 'jects, Lex Diamond's up next
Pull up, clap and distract you
Six cars away, yo, your brother in the back of the Ac'
I move pistols, hold 'em like infants
Jump out, rims, tints, guns is French, I can dent this
Out in Moscow Seagal style, look at the pair
Don't stare when the chain is a watchtower
We when we comin', ain't a Glock pulled
Rock the pyjama look
So now drama look like an eye-full
Coats Columbian with money in it
Ruthless Gotti, leather gloves on, the Wallies is blue body
Movin' through the dice game kickin'
Should have mittens on
Plottin' to dig in your pockets, we break niggas
Jumpin' in the A8's with swish men
Watches is Swiss, Chase Bank niggas
Drop you and then sprint
Don't ever dare walk in front of me
Cold as I wanna be
Yeah, this is what they want, right?
Give em what they want, right?
Yeah, 13
2013, funny how time s flying
It ain t a thing changed in regards to the iron
Hit you motherfuckers, go, push to the essence
Hollow-tip slug that will pierce through the vests
Anybody could get it, I sent a clear message
I ain t talking about texting, I get down in the trenches
Hang em like Texans, give em just enough rope
To do it on his own, after that I m a ghost
Posted up back at the crib getting top
Guap over hoes, get your hands off the pot
Fuck the number one slot and your little rap favorites
Young, rich and famous, I m amongst the hood s greatest
All in salute to the criminal element
Run up in your residence, catch you in your sleep
Niggas so shook they wanna turn a new leaf
Crying like a bitch when they see the blood leaking
When it s on we ain t stopping till somebody gone
Keep thinking it s a game, get your life going
Whole team, a bunch of cowards, where they at? Gone
Give a nigga gun showers, then I m out, gone
When it s on we ain t stopping till somebody gone
Keep thinking it s a game, get your life going
Whole team, a bunch of cowards, where they at? Gone
Give a nigga gun showers, then I m out, gone
I ve been getting paper early, that s hustler s ambition
Killer instinct, body, anything flinching
Put your niggas on mute, use the 9 like remote
An end to the fuckery you re tyring to promote
We was in the same boat till I threw him overboard
I fed him to the sharks, give you what you hand called
Fuck, you know I keep the goons on call
Fuck your life, I ain t never gave two fucks
Ain t nothing to us have that ass tied up in the trunk
In the middle of nowhere, they probably won t find you
Do a nigga dirty, you won t wanna be my rival
Now you caught up in the mix, in some real deep shit
I can spot a mile away, niggas never peep shit
It s all about being on point and never slipping
Niggas spreading their business talking like little bitches
When it s on we ain t stopping till somebody gone
Keep thinking it s a game, get your life going
Whole team, a bunch of cowards, where they at? Gone
Give a nigga gun showers, then I m out, gone
When it s on we ain t stopping till somebody gone
Keep thinking it s a game, get your life going
Whole team, a bunch of cowards, where they at? Gone
Give a nigga gun showers, then I m out, gone
They ask me what s good, I tell em I can t call it
Plotting on the low, if I tell you I might spoil it
Same shit, different toilet, niggas know my resume
Hate bleeding like a pig outside the heaven s gates
QB mafia, La Cosa Nostra
Whole team in the precinct on wanted posters
Already on the run, so don t give a fuck
And if you don t like it, fuck it, get rid of you
When it s on we ain t stopping till somebody gone
Keep thinking it s a game, get your life going
Whole team, a bunch of cowards, where they at? Gone
Give a nigga gun showers, then I m out, gone
When it s on we ain t stopping till somebody gone
Keep thinking it s a game, get your life going
Whole team, a bunch of cowards, where they at? Gone

[Verse 1: Havoc]
One for my troubles, two for the money
Haters feeling some kind of way and I don't give a fuck, B
Take the good with the bad, toastin', raisin' my glass
Shorty want my attention, she backin' up that ass
We fornicate, I'm all she ate, I'm puffin' on that loud
High as a helicopter – I'm standin' on a cloud
Livin' life to the fullest, and smokin' on that good shit
Got to find a way to do it, and now you findin' excuses?
Shorty, get with the movement – stop livin' that illusion
The niggas you look up to is under my influence
Yeah, your Grammy artists and your Moonman winners
I'm the reason they even got a speech to deliver
I'm certified hood, anywhere I go I'm good
If you knew better you'd do better, you wouldn't if you could
The world is a cold place, got on my leather bomber
My intent is foul with a smile, I'll be Obama
[Hook: Havoc]
For what it's worth, I don't do the back and forth
Let's get it over, nigga, tell me to my face
Everybody talkin' like a killer, I ain't with it
I say “do it, grow some balls, nigga, tell me to my face”
Feelin' any kind of way, and do this shit night or day
We don't play with ‘em, we aim ‘em at your face
I'll tell you now, I ain't playin' with you clowns, I never will
Wipe that smile off your motherfuckin' face
[Verse 2: Royce Da 5'9]
Yeah – when Ryan performing,
Diamonds on him looking like shining armor
So when I die, you just supply my body with iron embalming
I'm buying up everybody, from the highest to the hired informant
By deploying words like a thesaurus, I've acquired employment
From lying dormant, quiet as Mormons
To buying up foreign properties, been my ongoing prophecy
We're all going in profits, war and robbery
Fuck my trigger finger, the whole arm's itching, I got the poison ivy
I won't stop until your eyes go mahogany
This is my backyard barbecue flow
I'm living by the honorable artistry code
I went about as far as modesty goes
And that's good as gold, mind, body and soul
I'm outside of me watching my body
Embody god body till the inside of me
Thinks quicker than the outside of me
Pops mollies and drinks liquor
So hiccup
Either be a rhymer or be Vietnam
Now run along and tell your complete circle to be around
[Hook: Havoc]
[Verse 3: Havoc]
For day one, had that feelin' I would get that paper
All my competition crumpled like vanilla wafers
Ice runnin' through my veins, sippin' Hennessey, no chaser
You know what I made's a product of my environment
Single for the soldiers on my team that ironed this
The iron spit, yeah, and we cry “rich”
Always on that fly shit, that real nigga fly shit
Wildin', bangin' that Big “Ready To Die” shit
Stylin' on these niggas then you know I throw up my shit
(feat. Nature, Littles, The Jackal)
[Verse 1: Havoc]
41st side nigga, them thirsty side niggas
number one pick, gutter litter, leavin' 'em bitter
how the fuck a nigga figure he can come through this?
with no worry at all and ice on his wrist
plottin' to get it, poppn' them slugs
one in the mug, leave 'em in the morgue, keepin' it
gangsta? we keepin'
it thug
makin' albums, washin' that dough made from narcotics
you know the mob brolic, gats we got it
like a bitch on her period, don't even wanna see you
unless you got what I need, and we sure not peoples
only niggas that I fuck wit' could hold what I bust
wit'
a one minute nigga, hit 'em like when I nut quick
got a bad ass bitch that'll fuck your clique
ass so fat, make the illest nigga dry snitch
it's time to stretch on these cats 'cause my dogs is
restless
the number one sinner mothafucka, repent this.
[Chorus]
Fuckin' wit' us will leave you in a cardboard box
fuckin' wit' us will leave you leakin', callin' the
cops
with nothin' to bust? we'll leave you in a fucked up
spot
and you don't even wanna be that nigga claimin' a spot.
[repeat]
[Verse 2: The Jackal]
Play stupid, 32 shots nigga, looped it
64 troopers, Tim boots and Rugers
show and prover, Q.B. manuever
pure breed grower, flow gives brain tumors
holla at ya dog, movin' units
ain't ready for the onslaught
try to knock the Don off
not too much talk, niggas just pop off
got that feelin' inside, who willin' to ride?
aight here, take this Four-Five
cardboard box these niggas off sides
rap nigga live, rap niggas alive
that nigga high, gangsta stroll, stackin' to the sky
poppin' his collar nigga, tossin' that dollar
act up, blood clot his throat, make it hard to swallow
used to pitch times holdin' trotters
now I pitch 16's with the culture power saga
you sorry, don't bother, Q.B. to Carter
Rucker, Nino, Goodfella, Godfather.
[Chorus x2]
[Verse 3: Littles]
Came home after 5, stood on my own two
I learned to seperate Men from Boys and crews
I toy with dudes, now I'm just annoyed with fools
I'm a pimp on a track with another Mans food
I refuse to be whored by another Mans rules
It's a pimp and ho game, you gotta respect the business
but I only mob with thugs and gangsta niggas
it seems nowadays snitches get respect
ya'll don't know a real nigga 'till he's layed to rest?
ya'll lucky I ain't come home chasin' necks
arms, legs, chests, blazin' tecks
'cause I love to snap, crackle, and pop them hammers
rock bandanas, cop wanna knock and jam us
watch and slam us, locked up, box and canners
'cause when I start lickin' all you niggas start
snitchin'
bitchin', little niggas start missin'
we provide ya'll with the truth and facts
ya'll don't wanna give me burn with these ruthless raps
shit, I'll bounce ya'll ass straight off the tracks
plus I roll with gorillas and I'm true to cats.
[Chorus x2]
[Verse 4: Nature]
All I need is a kick and a snare, ya'll niggas scared
my name speaks for itself, it rains as soon as it hits
the air
got a wicked stare, one eye crossed
in Queens fiends returnin' every gun I toss
every dun I corpse, my religion is none
I figured once I lay it out niggas 'll run
I could type it up e-mail
and give it to you, when you're done you're comin' back
for a refill
grade A shit, like the taste of the haze and the dro
I rock the same Guess jeans five days in a row
see my Thirty-Six waist is now Thirty-Eight
quick to help a nigga up to the pearly gates
makin' sure every other live nigga heard of Nate
guaranteed to boost the murder rate
if it don't it will niggas, chill just give it some
time
how much pain can a nigga provide?
Annotate [Verse 1: Havoc]
Got these cowards out plotting on me, red dotting for me
Blast 'em with the clapper, know I keep the ratchet on me
All that beefing shit is corny, nigga, faker than the Twitter beef
Your girl wants something realer so she's in my sheets
And I don't blame her, she rather be around this paper
Every move made is major, fuck a crib we buying acres
ODing off of life is where the high can take us
Sky's the limit, up above and way beyond you haters
I'm coming at your head better duck
Out from under bushes like, "surprise, remember us?"
My music is the most ominous shit you'll ever bump
Niggas wanna meet their maker I'm just here to hook it up
And when you get there just be sure to send him my regards
Lord forgive me for this shit these niggas got me on
I'm trying hard, so very hard
I pull you into beef that you can never squash
This the life we chose, dealing with the life we chose
It's a cold world homie and it's only getting colder
Motherfuckers get their whole life froze
This the life we chose, dealing with the life we chose
It's a cold world homie and it's only getting colder
Motherfuckers get their whole life froze
This ghetto giving out scars, we'll run the world in a year
I only figured out a plan and switched it, life sucked
Felt like I was tortured
Every day we had to climb through the dirt
Hell if I forfeit
Been around the world and back again, nigga, check out the portrait
No more selling me short shit, my will so strong
For my soul, if you came across it, time to reclaim my fortune
Big fleet, line up the horses, gotta stay on my feet
Fuck running, down with the fortress, M-O-B 'til I sleep, nigga
South Jamaica is my drive, watch your fucking own back
That's what it takes to stay alive
If fiends wild, I've got the crystal shiny with me now
A thousand and more styles, mine's like a clip of rounds
Watch for the shifty smiles, just push the bar higher
Done lifted the crowd
Building on tilt, fill up this bitch with loud
A temper on me and that click-and-pow
Holding on to all these memories
I've got to think about them just to smile
This the life we chose, dealing with the life we chose
It's a cold world homie and it's only getting colder
Motherfuckers get their whole life froze
This the life we chose, dealing with the life we chose
It's a cold world homie and it's only getting colder
Motherfuckers get their whole life froze
This the life we chose, dealing with the life we chose
It's a cold world homie and it's only getting colder
Motherfuckers get their whole life froze
This the life we chose, dealing with the life we chose
It's a cold world homie and it's only getting colder
Its been four years and things have changed
But through it all we still remain
From the start you never gave us a chance
We were only told it will never last
Never say Never
This is forever
Even when we found God you never trusted us
You said we're too young and don't have enough
Where you going without your college degree
WIthout your million dollars without your American Dream
I never ask you for anything but a little support
And to listen to me, I know I can't be what you want me
City of los angeles 2002
The scum fill the streets
And the punks are getting glued
One more empty day and one last fix
The disease is spreading
While the hookers turn their tricks
I know there's more than this
My life wont be wasted
There's more than this
An empty life an empty day
One more debt i have to pay
More than just come what may
More than just wasting away
There's got 2 be more
There's got 2 be more
There's got 2 be more
There's more than this
Another homeless man
Lays drunk in the streets
Plastered everyday
Plastered everyweek
And in an ally close by
Another young girl is raped
Her virginity is stolen
Her purity dismayed
There's got be more
More than this
I know our lives here
Arent even worth piss
There's gotta be more than this place
More than just a human race
When I look back on my life,
The wrongs and the rights,
I know I've made mistakes,
But never lost the fight,
Never fogot who I am,
Or lost my identity,
Fighting for what I believe means everything to me.
Made it this far in my life,
No, I'm not givin up yet.
Made it this far in my life,
'cause one chance is all you get.
Made it this far in my life,
I know now who I am.
Made it this far in my life,
You gotta fight back while you can.
I packed my bags one day,
And hit the open road,
A city of lost angels
Is where I was gonna go,
Now everything I wanted
Ain't nothin new,
But breakin from your roots
Ain't easy to do.
Made it this far in my life,
No, I'm not givin up yet.
Made it this far in my life,
'cause one chance is all you get.
Made it this far in my life,
I know now who I am.
Made it this far in my life,
You gotta fight back while you can.
Life can be so cruel,
Life can make you sick,
Life can make you give up,
Life can make you quit,
But life here isn't forever,
Just a quick glimpse,
Fight back while you can
'cause one chance is all you get!
Made it this far in my life,
No, I'm not givin up yet.
Made it this far in my life,
'cause one chance is all you get.
Made it this far in my life,
I know now who I am.
Made it this far in my life,
why dont you just live or die
stick that needle in your arm
you want your kicks it wont last long
it's just another fix, dead and road
you end up stiff
wasted all the time
you hate you life you wonder why?
nothing ever seems to change
ignore the truth for the same old things
why dont you just live or die?
All the kids at another show
You hit the bottle and you're ready to go
You got your blood stained shirt from last night
Now you're loaded and looking for another fight
Pride came first, love came last,
You better watch out be'cause death comes fast
Death comes fast
Youre stuck in a hole
Youre out of control
Youre wasting away
You better change
Death comes fast
Don't you know your life wont change
One more excuse it's the same old thing
Day by day living a lie
Wasting away until the day you die
Pride came first love came last
[Chorus: Havoc]
Got my eyes on all this paper
Where your mami, cuz that body
Oh my God, I want to thank her
Don't get it twisted, I'm not your captain
Who girl? I'm not trying to save ya
[Havoc]
Something like the 19-9 Groucho blue light
The lotto, fuck plenty models, Crys' out the bottle
Like fast cars, my foot on the throttle
Like big guns, I feel those with hollows
Niggas want beef, I got that to lend
Niggas bleed just like us, I put it in
If I done fucked yo bitch, and take the easy route
Switch the lock on the door, and change the bank
account
She was just something to fuck, and ain't really count
Bust a nut in her mouth and then a nigga bounce
How we doing the shit?
Gon' see another bitch with a chick in the whip
Huh, the same thing that I said
Nigga do what he wanna do, when he got big bread
The king size bed, yeah, it's fitting them all
Ma, you ain't with it, then I'm missing ya call
[Chorus: Havoc]
Don't start tripping, how we ripping
Got my eyes on all this paper
Where your mami, cuz that body
Oh my God, I want to thank her
Don't get it twisted, I'm not your captain
Who girl? I'm not trying to save ya
Heavyweighter, about my paper
I'll upgrade ya, something major
I'm the boss
[Havoc]
Oh, as I come through the door
Throw valet the keys, to the 07, it's on
That's one of my exotic whips
Now peep my exotic chick, take a look at her
Look at her ass fat, see it through a wool sweater
Don't hate on me, she do better
Who better, she pick me, MVP
VIP, you just lose better
But I ain't worried bout losing
Big ya crews and all them Cancuning
All worry about me, who want to screw in
Paparazzi watching the kid, and my movement
Trying to get they hands on the sex tape
Damn, why they wanna get they hands on the sex tape
I know why they wanna get to the sex tape
And that'll be the day that the bank break
(1-2-3-4!)
Twenty years have past,
Come and gone so fast,
Nothin's gettin better,
Nothin seems to last,
But the rebellion I live for still stands strong,
And it'll still be here even after I'm gone,
If you think it'll die, you better think again,
If you're that stupid then we don't need your opinion.
A casuse for rebellion, lets break the rules
A cause for me and you,
A reason to deeat the enemy,
The only thing to do.
It's time for a change, it's time to break away,
It's long overdue, our rebellion is just beginning,
It's nowhere near being through,
So don't try and hold us back, 'cause you'll get knocked down,
We don't let anyone push us around.
A casuse for rebellion, lets break the rules
A cause for me and you,
A reason to deeat the enemy,
The only thing to do.
You better back off or you'll wish you had,
You haven't even come close to seein me mad,
If you think I'll budge then you've made a mistake,
Just try testin me, that's all it'll take,
Before you find yourself down on the floor,
And you won't be gettin up, that's for sure,
Before you make your first move, you better think twice,
You better take my advice.
Started with a cause, a cause for rebellion
a reason to break the rules
to show them we're not fooled
nobody left to tell us who to be
tell us what to do, tell us what we're free
free from what? thier legalistic garbage?
keep it in the trash
we dont need it, we dont want it
i'll tell you what to do,
i'll make it easy for you
back off, back off
i've heard what you said,
and once is enough
you can keep telling us we're wrong
but you wont change us
we dont need you to tell us who to be
to tell us what to do, but still tell us
that we're free
they say they dont remeber
we wont let them forget
we're not gonna to let em
Take a look around you and
Tell me what you see
A messed up world
Backwards society
Were all to blame
Everybodys out
To please themselves
Church and state fueled by their wealth
Were all to blame
Quite pointing the finger
At some else to blame
Were all at fault here
And the simple fact remains
Were all to blame
Nothings gettign better
Its only gettign worse
You can sit in complacency
But you wouldn't be the first
We want the truth!
Another day passes by and it all seems the same
The search for truth contiues but only questions remain
The lost search with hopeless ness lies are what they're fed
Shoved down thier throats till they're al dead
I'm sick of the corruption, i'm sick of the lies
I'm not gonna take it, i'll fight till i die
And you can't tell me it won't change a thing
'cause im not living for you or society
And we wont sit back and take your crap
Because we wont be stabbed in the back
So just piss off and keep your mouth shut
We won't believe your lies no matter what
We arleady see through you and your pathetic scam
And you'll never change me or who i am
And we'll never give up or draw a truce
'cause we'll neve stop living for the truth
We want the truth
Still time passes by more lies are spread
Working thier way into our heads
So sick and twisted it makes me sick
Feeding an addiction that i just can't kick
When will we be freed from this trap we're in
And how long till this suffocation ends
This choking feeling that never goes a way
Talkin trash on others that's all u ever do
Youre not impressing me im getting sick of you
Bringing others down instead or helping them up
Youre just another hypocrite who can't keep their
Mouth shut
Do us all a favor
And keep to yourself what you know
Your stupidity is beginning to show
If you can't learn to
Think before you speak
Then i don't wanna hear
What you have to say or think
Always trying to make
Others look wores than you
Its pretty pathetic you
Got nothing better to do
Remember you'll get
What's comin your way
You'll be an embarrassment
To someone else someday
Don't hold me back
I've got too much to lose
I'll cauterize the open wound
Chorus:
You obey
I said get out of my way
You obey
I said get out of my way
Pulling you out
Like a thorn in my side
Give yourself up
Like there's nothing to hide
Chorus:
You obey
I said get out of my way
You obey
I said get out of my way
Crash and burn
But you still never learn
Screams aren't heard
When you're crushed by the weight of the world
Chorus:
You obey
I said get out of my way
You obey
A covered sky where clouds disperse
Their fading bodies unveil a starlit sky
And as eons of infinity gaze upon me
My body ascends into orbit
I observe humility and inhumanity
On acres of dying life
Dried up lands split apart
Facing an inevitable end
As larvas grew we eroded
In constant evolve, in fear dissolve
I detest our entire existence
We embrace the calamity
Shears cut the words from an open mouth
That assent the coming storm
We omit the oblivious
And nurture the frenzy taking form
Tear through the veil
Free whats hiding
Disintegrate from flesh and ascend
Relent and then amend
A post human organism
Without the ability to think
Your I, Your instinct
A conscious corrosion
Define the boundaries of your mind
And transcend
Far from the misaligning
Burrowed larvas crawl
An overwhelming choking anathema
Contained in flesh embraced in fear
Sleep, wake up, feed, sleep
Close your eyes and sleep
A covered sky where clouds disperse
Their fading bodies unveal a starlit sky
And as eons of infinity gaze upon me
My body ascends into orbit
And I observe the humility
A covered sky where clouds disperse
Their fading bodies unveal a starlit sky
And as eons of infinity gaze upon me
My body ascends into orbit
And I observe the inhumanity
Your I, Your instinct
A conscious corrosion
We are drifting, drifting further away
Further away from what's been so close
And as life comes to stop
The rains reached the the land
Like a cold cleansing hand
Amidst flaming fiery fields
Surrounding the saints of sand
Water revives the chasms
Sparkling, cleansing, healing
Enables the human phantasm
Seeing, touching, feeling
The invigorating air
Reanimates, recreates, energizes
Ocean floors and mountain lairs
Fuels our human devices
Gaze far above the clouds
Beyond your static animation
Seek answers in the soil and shrouds
Practice powerless meditation
Whenever wisdom may enter
The obvious will suffice
Behold the trees as your mentor
Solitude is the price
Rewards of isolation seems
The vast beauty of the elements
Melting the mountain The sseds of creation Washing away all the impurities Calling it vengeance But we don't deserve this Our saving grace is that we are free
Melt me
Melting the mountain Attack with a reason Reasons that cannot be reasonably seen Plotting against us With raging persistence Treason committed with no penalty
I can see it in your face I can see it in your eyes I can watch you turning your back I can read through your lies
You don't know where it is you're going But you know you're on your way Life only gives what you apply Spend every day just searching For something to pass the time So many ways to waste a life
Debasing Replacing Embracing Time wasting Quit thinking Mind shrinking
Wasting your life
Wasting away in a pseudo-existence Let reality pass you by Apathy and consciousness collide You can join the real world Don't let it be denied Cut the cord: activate your mind
Solo - Scruggs
You don't know where it is you're going But you know you're on your way Life only gives what your apply Don't let it be a last-minute decision To stop throwing away your time Before you know it, it's over and you die
A stolen lie betrayed the race Murder in the worst case Royalties are lowlifes now Apocalyptic genocide Screaming "I don't want to die" You told yourself it was a lie How can all of this be real? Aborted lives: human veal
PRECHORUS Genocidal nature gonna tear you a new one Can't flee now, you're about to die Multicultural holocaust What you had now is lost Forcing yourself into oppression
The start of a new era Foreigner brings the terror Masking the intentions of a puritanical plot War with open arms And open minds that fear Freedom of religion What is the final cost?
PRECHORUS
CHORUS Unreal is reality Pain is now the only truth Reign of terror pacifies Revolution in its roots Systematic killing fields A bullet seals the word To hold in the secret Of a cemetery morgue Inflammatory, mortuary, cemetery stone Category of the dead (Too broad for words)
Mediocrity at its best Humanity laid to rest End of all things to come Darker are the seeds of doom Never has an end like this been peophesized to this extent Game is over We have all lost
PRECHORUS CHORUS
Solo - Chavez
Ready to rage like you're trapped in a cage Living for the shred until you're dead Amps all turned up to eleven Bang your head it's metal heaven
(Go) Entering a world of speed Can't get a hold of me 'Cause the metal sets me free
CHORUS Feet are falling backward Smashing in the teeth Get into the pit Make a violent scene For those who don't know Tell 'em where to go Throw them in the afterburner
Rumbling your gut Like a machine gun to your ears Louder, louder As the crowd begins to cheer
When the hell did Karate in the pit Make people think Think they're the shit?
CHORUS
Burn
Smashing your face Tearing the place Down to the ground
Breaking your bones Those who don't know Tell 'em where to go
Starving out the many while I only feed the few Maintain the wealth that keeps me in control of you Clean on the surface so you won't see my deceit Even though I'm slithering just beneath your feet Extend my reign into foreign lands Flexing my muscle anywhere I can I keep the power and swallow you whole Cutting off your life support, I follow through
From way up here my vision's distorted Cannot maintain what I once supported I keep you safe, secure, and protected Until my self-indulgence has been perfected
I am the state I decide your fate Deliver to all I bring the downfall
Making up your mind is everything I do Doing the right thing is never up to you Get you on board only to betray your trust I will cut you off when I say you've had enough
Stuck in an ivory tower They think paper equals power No use to mankind It's the blind leading the blind
How can they learn so much? But know nothing at all Without a book for a crutch Falling into withdrawal
Delusion fo importance Clouds up their feeble minds Ignorance and intelligence Split by a fine line
Removed from the real world When they speak I want to hurl Academic condemnation Fit only for obliteration
Solo - Sanchez Solo - Chavez
How could it come to this? How could it be so vile?
Revolution in their minds The children start to march Against the world in which they have to live And all the hate that's in their hearts
They're tired of bein' pushed around And told just what to do They'll fight the world until they've won And hell comes flowing through Yeah!
Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today Will the sun rise up tomorrow bringing peace in any way? Must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear? Can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear? Yeah!
obscured by the sun
apocalyptic clash
cities fall in ruin
why must we die?
obliteration of mankind
under a pale grey sky
we shall arise...
i did nothing, saw nothing
terrorist confrontation
waiting for the end
wartime conspiracy
i see the world - old
i see the world - dead
victims of war, seeking some salvation
last wish, fatality
i've no land, i'm from nowhere
ashes to ashes, dust to dust
face the enemy
manic thoughts
religious intervention
A drowning man will always try to bring you down with him In a sea of treachery you surely cannot swim Not a leg to stand on, he's got deception inside of him Picking at the scabs of trust: it will never heal
CHORUS You are trapped in your web of lies Can't break fee Eternal despise
Cut your own throat and bleed on me watch the others run There's no saving a man that sets himself up to be burned No turning back now, you are already gone Let us watch your body, as it crumbles into dust
CHORUS
Solo - Sanchez Solo - Chavez
I'm so sorry for laughing at you when I saw you hit the ground Always knew I's be the one on top, looking down There are so many things you just could not wrap your mind around Take a look at yourself...you'd see who's the fool
Cut the rotting branches of government that stop The people from having meaning today Stay out of my business and keep to yourself Got to do things my own way Minimizing freedom with your rules and regulations A never-ending hunger to control Choking out the life of your own population Abusing the power you hold
POWER - CONTROL Give me liberty... Or give me death
Death to our independence, death to those who fight Death to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights Showing no regard for the way things ought to be Stripping away rights from you and me The founding fathers would be rolling in their graves If they could see what you are doing to this place The next thing to go is our freedom of speech So I'll speak up while I still can and maximize my reach
I find it hard to believe Some things are better left unsaid Is it the land of the free? Democracy is dead
Are you searching for the real truth? Every uncertainty withdrawn I need to break it to you The old way of thinking is dead and gone
We're not the center of the universe Take a look and see The contradiction pointed in reverse I will be...
Chasing the edge Chase the edge
Rethink the possibilities Turn the whole world upside down You've lost all credibility Not a shred of honesty to be found
Solo - Sanchez / Scruggs
Have you ever gotten suspicious Of the things they try to sell you? You better wise up To the bullshit that they tell you I can't ´believe we live in a world Where ignorance is bliss and thoughts are controlled
Have you ever heard of using common sense? In this crazy world it's our only defense To stop all the lies To stop all the hate To stop, stop, stop theological debate The world could be a better place in the end if we all could just admit...
It is true They lie to you
Do you even passess a single thought of your own? Or do you believe everything you're told? How can you sleep with this on your mind? Your lack of logic ought to be a crime
If I had the chance I'd say it to your face Start thinking for yourself or leave the human race There is no time for making the mistake Of letting them get away with preaching and teaching what is fake
Solo - Scruggs
How many people need to die Before you wake up and give your fucking brain a try?
Life is too short to waste time on things That don't make sense to you or me It's obvious and you can see, it's right in front of you
See the gates are closing Elimination waits Deeming you unlift for the life just because I decide To constantly remind you That there's a reason why This is where the strongest give and all the weakest die
Separate Defective and unequal Clean slate But it's so unnatural
Showing indifference Mocking perfection Struggle for existence Unnatural selection
Displayed above your head Feeding you the lie Putting you to work to profit off of your demise Systematic servitude Work will set you free Arbitrary suffering, infinite misery
Running short of breath, dwelling on my weaknesses Turning inward to myself, to find the strength that used to be
Looking back, it used to be, all my problems, don't care for me Pursuing, believing, no truth in sight, anxiety
Cannot count on others to live my life for me Your games make me lose all dependency
It's the same old shit...just a different day
Got your back against the wall
No time left, no time to stall
Life is about to shoot
But you don't know when, you don't know who
Under pressure and anxiety
You gotta find a way
Or there is hell to pay
Eventually...
Gotta do what you gotta do
Doing what does not belong
Doing what you know is wrong
Pressure building up to critical mass
Trying not to break the hourglass
Got no room to make mistakes
Stuck between a rock and a hard place
Life is about to shoot
Nuclear warfare
Create, desolate
Lives that are gone
No trust in fate
HAVOK arise
Death to us all
The end is here
Answer death's sweet call
FIRE!
Disintegrate the flesh
Leaving nothing left
No one to save our planet
NOW!
It's time for us to die
Look up to the sky
Watch our cities vanish
Anarchist dream
Extinction of mankind
Leaders are dead
There's no life to find
Chaos reigns
Destruction mounts
Peace is gone
Raising body counts
FIRE!
Disintegrate the flesh
Leaving nothing left
No one to save our planet
NOW!
It's time for us to die
Look up to the sky
Watch our cities vanish
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
There's no escape
So swallow your pride
Fear is no more
Cease to exist
Lay your body to rest
Your life you shall miss
FIRE!
Disintegrate the flesh
Leaving nothing left
No one to save our planet
NOW!
It's time for us to die
Look up to the sky
Keep your distance from my life
You want to talk to me? You're gonna meet my fist
Mess with me I'll mess you up
You've never seen a temper quite like this
Stay away from me right now
I got a pistol cocked and I'm pissed
Pull the trigger, yes I will
Seeing you die would be total bliss
Why am I smiling? You wonder why
Cause it's time to kiss your ass goodbye
Said it once, I'll say it twice
Tonight's the night you're gonna die!
Look in my eyes and you will see
Tonight's your final destiny
You won't wake up again oh no!
Final shot - to hell you go!
Threaten my safety I'll threaten yours
All I see now is an open door
Opening up to your thoughts of pain
Fear is driving me insane!
Getting to the boiling point
One day soon you shall be joined
By the dark lord in his home
Before Christ in a time of fear
Ideas and faith reinforce with a spear
With the crescent ruling
Flesh by flesh
Non-believers perished
Now you can see
It's ideology
Creed is gone
It's their permanent reality
[Solo - Chavez]
Lie to the people
Those who speak see no evil
Loss of power is not an option
Surrender your spirits to us
Thirsty to reign
Everything to lose, but nothing to gain
It's ultimate supremacy
Control is maintained
[CHORUS]
Whipping, torture, killing, rotting
I have seen the abuse
Whipping, torture, killing, rotting
Rotten
Time to act
As I hear their screams
I've lost touch with reality
Killing is my specialty
Dark and hollow, I feel no sorrow
For the victims at my blade
I feel nothing as I piece their brains
[Solo - Chavez]
Lie to the people
Those who speak see no evil
Loss of power is not an option
Surrender your spirits to us
Thirsty to reign
Everything to lose, but nothing to gain
It's ultimate supremacy
the eight plague roamed
born within eastern wind
from the dark prayers of Moses
they came to obliterate sin
as a swarm of locusts
covering the skies and
casting all into darkness
consumed was the land
annahilated was iniquity
release them!
release them all
release them!
release them all again!
sounds of the swarm, the arousing alarm
one tiny entity in thousands
a whole anatomy built to consume
the idea of the living
exhume the thoughts of him
in motion with us, within
release the wrath of our dead prophet
let him unleash again, a force
from which we will never regain
and as the heavens rain down
we stand by watching
the world in her final gown
seeing her last sun setting
so, as the silence arrive
and there is morning again
the last day of time dawns
I feel so trapped in this building of hell
Why am I here? Nobody can tell
Take me out from this big misery
Pain and death is all that I see
Where are my friends? They left me out here
Givers of death are closer than near
They're taking me out to the end of my time
What I pay is my life as a fine
Rescue me from the endless nightmares
So few attempts and nobody cares
Don't leave me here I don't want to die
There is no chance I hate you, goodbye
No remorse
They do what they please
Can't stand up
They severed my knees
Torn up inside
They've beaten me down
Now I'm gone
The end I have found
Rescue me from the endless nightmares
So few attempts and nobody cares
Don't leave me here I don't want to die
Originality
They can't find their way
They look up to me
For authenticity
They get no approval
From the pioneers
All the disappointment
Bringing them to tears
Identity theft!
Who are you?
Identity theft!
Find something new
You think you're different
To try to fit in
Same pointless game
Bringing them to shame
I don't try to lead
Others just like to follow
Set the standards high
So their lives will occupy
The time it takes to get
Get even close to it
Identity theft!
Who are you?
Identity theft!
Find something new
You think you're different
i'm evolving upwards, forwards
running, seeing, feeling
i shift from dust to water to dust
in all my grace i'm kneeling
the peace of danger left behind
easliy, willingly, passionately
i comprehend the weakness of my kind
and embrace all the ways i'm confined
i'm awaken by sudden realization
of my pyrrhic victory
can anyone vindicate my creation
or am i nothing but this contradictory
i'm a boulder in a world of water
a petrified statue in rush hour
paralyzed, numb, cold
a king of gravel released from his power
flickering vivid colour schemes
changing from black to white to black
amongst the side-scenes screams
of cold bodies aching to attack
the great prize of life
to vanquish and to be vanquished
a gold medallion in chains
