I prefer yellow roses to daisies
I'll take the mountains over a postcard view
I'll order steaks every time instead of hot dogs
That's why I chose him over you
I like to love somebody handsome rather than ugly
I like happiness instead of being blue
I like to talk real late at night after making love
And that's the reasons I chose him over you
Well I don't know how I ever did without him
And I don't understand why I put up with you
Well I know that the sun shines the brightest when you're happy
So go ahead and think just what you want to
But I promise what I just told you is true
Oh I love him so much and he loves me too
And that's the reasons I chose him over you
Just some of the reasons I chose him over you
Oh over you

Tell the dj turn it up
Beg the dj bring it back
Tell him play that sh-t again
Tell him that you like that
I know it's somebody's birthday,
Right now, right, right now
Somebody getting drunk too
Right now, right, right now
Fetch me in the club like I own that place
Shorty dancing like she on that dick
Bad b-tches never hold back
Send me a picture with your phone at
I only came here for two reasons
I came by...
I only came for the b-tches and the drinks
B-tches and the drinks, b-tches and the drinks
For the b-tches, came for
B-tches and the drinks, b-tches and the drinks
Baby can you get some
Only came for the b-tches and the drinks
Baby get your a-s up

In Europe and America, there's a growing feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets
Mr. Krushchev said we will bury you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too
How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy
There is no monopoly in common sense
On either side of the political fence
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too
There is no historical precedent
To put the words in the mouth of the President
There's no such thing as a winnable war
It's a lie that we don't believe anymore
Mr. Reagan says we will protect you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us, me, and you

car full of weed
didn't see him creep up
hit him in the jaw
took him for his phone and his beeper
left him on the ground, caughin blood
pissed in the ????, then pulled the plug
2 to the dome, didn't let him suffer
and like a chicken, put him in the pot then smother
life in the Rich, gotta think quick
be about your money, you can't trust a bitch
fucked in the game, gettin paid dues
but when they tagged his toe, the boy made the news
and like Spice said, from bodies to zags
from forties to funeral
just another nigga on the grass dead
18 and bad luck, nobody gives a fuck
here comes a black truck
2 days later everybody cryin
and at the funeral bangers in line
here comes his mother pushin through the crowd
screamin oh my god don't killm y child
I'm in the back dressed in khakies
9 in my pocket caue P is trigga happy
Lil O.G. pushing tapes and c.d.'s
puttin in work like some Levi jeans
and when my number's called, you know I'm ready bro
cause I got 17 reasons, I'll let you know
17 reasons, to let go
shoot em up, bang bang, you fuckin with a psycho
17 reasons, to let go
shoot em up, bang bang, you fuckin with a psycho
17 reasons, to let go
shoot em up, bang bang, you fuckin with a psycho
back on the scene
P making green, playa hatas hate to see a nigga go clean
ain't slangin dope, but got dope tapes
went worldwide, started from the Bay
from No Limit to SMG
put it in the trunk, ship it across the sea
Saint get the check, King break they neck
it's all legit, like Solar Flex
one blow and I'll drop ya, you might need a doctor
a nigga getaway, C-Murder got the Shocker
stuck to your ass, played you like a bitch
mark ass niggas get the motherfuck 86
besides wanna run up and mean mug the P
fools comeup short, Silkk get their teeth
stick it in the ground, till it turn blue
and if a fool live he be suckin on soup
stuck em in the car with a broken jaw
it ain't what you heard, it's what you saw
retaliation's a must, that's why I bust
but fool, got 17 reasons
shut you motherfuckin ass up
17 reasons, to let go
shoot em up, bang bang, you fuckin with a psycho
17 reasons, to let go
shoot em up, bang bang, you fuckin with a psycho
17 reasons, to let go
shoot em up, bang bang, you fuckin with a psycho
gold on my ride
4 woofers, 2 Alpines
and when the Lexus stop
hoochies wanna form lines
fiends on my shit
lookin for a hit
watchin them niggas ????
trying to get a fix
I walk with a limp, mean like a soldier
Colt 45, gone off that donja
Master P, the nappy head fool
don't give a fuck, don't play by no rules
rata-tat-tat, just like the Brat
P leaving suckas stuck on their back
better check his pulse, left him with his eyes open
struck him from the back, god damn watch his head open
throw him off the cliff, take him to the torcher ship
and this was who
I'll be like Shawn Kemp
dumpin bodies off straight to the morturary
Master P, in the hood, Black Dirty Harry
Richmond Balla, 23rd Street hustla
still independent, started from the gutter
went big time, took to the gangsta rhyme
put the town on the map, that's the fucking like of crime
the hoods gettin hectic,
the P well respected
but got to pack some heat
incase some fool test me
17 reasons, to let go

Environmental chaos
Bombs falling down
Strong feed of the weak
No justice've ever been done
Religion shows it's ugly face
Masses opressed by lies
We seek to find the reasons
but there's no reason why...

Raisins come from grapes, people come from apes
I come from Canada
I came in first place in a nonexistent race
To rebuild the Parthenon
The Parthenon's in Greece or was it in Grease 2?
I can't keep my movies straight
When I make mistakes I use a lot of salt
'Cause salt makes m'steaks taste great
I don't want to be a bother
But I think the phone's for you
I've got orange pants, I wear them when I dance
But I don't get out that much
You are just too loud, I passed you in a crowd
Thank you and keep in touch
I don't speak Chinese, not even words like please
Thank you or how are you
But I can parle Français, I parled a bit today
It seemed like the thing to do
I don't want to be a bother

Now, I'm craving your body,
is this real
Temperatures rising, I don't want to feel
I'm in the wrong place to be real
Woahh and I'm; longing to love you
just for a night,
Kissing and hugging and holding you tight
Please let me love you
with all my might
Reasons, the reasons that we hear,
The reasons that we fear
our feelings a-won't disappear
Oooh! And- after the love game has been played
All our illusions were just a parade
And all the reasons start to fade
(Layering Chorus)
LA-LA-LA-ETC
After all our reasons why
All the reasons were a lie
After all the reasons lo-ove was ne'er decide
And, longing to love you for one night
Please let me love you with all of my might, baaaaby
OOOHHH, Baby!
Reasons, the reasons that we hear,
The reasons that we fear
our feelings a-won't disappear
Oooh! And after the love games have been played
All our illusions were just a parade
And all the reasons start to fade
And, in the morning when I rise,
no longer feeling hynotized
For no reasons, our reasons, our reasons
have no pri-ii-de
(Layering Chorus)
LA-LA-LA-ETC
After all the reasons why
All of the reasons were a lie
After all the reasons lo-ove was ne'er decide
(Phillips last solo) Heeehhhhh, Ooooh, yeaahhh, Oohhh Baby,
I can't find the reasons
That my love won't disappear
Can't find the reasons
Why I love you ,my baby, my dear
Can't find the reasons
Wanna love you all night
Can't find the reasons
Gotta squeeze ya, real tight
Can't find the reasons
Baby- yeah,
For my tears
Can't find the reasons
Why I love ya....(fade to black)

The lights exploded
She stood burning in front of me
She ripped my heart out, and gave it to me
My eyes wouldn't open, cemented to her face
Have I begun a feeble chase
I'll be down, I'll be around
I'll be hanging where eventually you'll have to be
I'll just stare and hope you'll care
There's only everything standing in front of me
I know what you did to me
I know what you did was wrong
You're allowed to torture me
Wait a moment until I'm gone
I know you're the ticked, you gotta be
'Cos I let you be alone for long
Got to do something mean to me
Got to do something so I can't hang on
You're Killing Me X5
I'll be down, I'll be around
I'll be hanging where eventually you'll have to be
I'll just stare and hope you'll care
There's only everything standing in front of me
I'll be down, I'll be around
I'll be hanging where eventually you'll have to be
You're not mad, you're standing there

Set my sails out on a sunny day
Pretty soon I was on my way
Though what for sure it was
I could not say
Two thousand reasons
Maybe more
Eight hundred chances
On Faraway shores
Searching for something, searching for more
Deep inside me burning
Reasons for the learning
Now you can pick up reasons
So easily
Where you've been, and where you've got to be
And when the truth don't show, you'll always see
Lots of reasons
And pretty soon you've got a heavy load
dragging those reasons down an endless road
I got to thinking and I got to see
So many reasons, coming at me
The one that leaves you high and dry
He says you still owe him, there's a reason why
He'll leave you crying, till the tears run dry
He's the one, always the one, with all the reasons
So many reasons, they come and they go
The reasons for them, I'll never know
I've seen so many, they've come and they've gone
I've turned all mine in, and I'm happy with one
So don't talk o friendship, do it to me!
Make me an offer, and make it for free
Don't give me reasons, because I wrote that song

You can steal my eyes
Carve them out, I don't even need them
I don't wanna see anyone other than you
You cover your face
You're afraid to see the outcome
It's more than anyone person can bare
You take me for granted
You take me for reasons known only by you
You take me for granted
You take me for reasons known only by you
Pierce my heart, it useless
I don't even really need it
It belongs to nobody other than you
You can cut off my tongue
I'm speechless, a defeatist
And I'm wasting away, to nothing at your feet, so
You take me for granted
You take me for reasons known only by you
You take me for granted
You take me for reasons known only by you
If my heart is made out of gold
Than why does it feel like I'm here all alone?
And you take me for granted
You take me for reasons known only by you
I'm hollowed out, can't you see?
You've ripped out my soul right from under me
Have little to show for anything
It's everything that you have hoped for
You take me for granted
You take me for reasons known only by you
You take me for granted
You take me for reasons known only by you
If my heart is made out of gold
Than why does it feel like I'm here all alone?
You take me for granted

It was the perfect excuse to get drunk
As if lately I've needed one
It Was the perfect excuse to buy bullets
For the barrel of my favorite gun
It was the perfect way to show you
How it feels inside of me
And the perfect way to find out
How it feels to set me free
Reasons
I keep looking for reasons
I thought that I had loved you
I did the best I could
Reasons
I keep looking for reasons
I lost the reason for me living
And that just ain't no good
I know that three's a crowded room
But really, this won't take long
I want to meet the man, help him to understand
What he did when he broke up our home
And I'll be going now to a place I know
That's deep, dark and quiet
Away from pain and the undying shame
Of me and my unfaithful wife
Reasons
I keep looking for reasons

I did the best I could

[Proof]
You wish that you could bear me black
D12 standing back
No planning that
Def methods, we got a hand in that
Whoever run this shit
You get a jammed knee cap
Make the healthy get sick
And your fam handicapped
You a fan of rap
My clan attack
Your school, home, your bitch house
Pull my nine milli
You gon' die with your fist out
Him an his
It's over with
Venom is this
cobra spit
Agressive dialect with agressive
Sober bitch
My bionic fires demonish atlonics
Demonic is tainted chronic
Impossible to hold down like vomit
Mics I palm it
You stay to bomb it
Like tourists that's Islamic
I enter your atmosphere like a comet
The new god of rap
Call me nigga Thor
Snap your back
When I slap your ass in a figure four
From miles around they can feel it's lethal
I make hardcore groups like Wu Tang
Look like the Village People (fags)
No sequel
The general let the senistal
Abort your mind state and kill your inner child
[Bizarre]
It's been a while
Since you bitch niggas heard of me
Cuz the last six months
I been doing R&B;
But now I'm on some sick shit
Niggas better duck quick
You don't know who you're fucking with
I'll leave you niggas breathless
Seeing me and Bugz rolling in the blue hummer
You a bitch, scared to shoot like Lindsay Hunter
Don't need to be a father
Cuz I'm just to illmatic
I'll probably poison my kids
Like flowers in the alley
Fuck your anorexic neglects it
Fuck a Lexus
I'm doing drivebys on XXX BMX's
[Bugz]
I know a girl who said she's prio
And her sign is a Leo
Bugzy fucked her in a Regal
And then she took me to my P.O.
Fuck rollin' ceelo
I'm down to a c-note
Lost a g' rollin' dice at that punk ass casino
But fuck it (shit) cuz when times get bad
See me and drag with the mags
On unsuspecting fags (bitch)
I gotta shoot
Bitch you got the boot
And hurry up with it
I'm trying to catch this prostitute (I got ten)
[Kuniva]
I'm the nigga that spotted ya
Spit something hot at ya
Rip your Nautica
Saw you backstage and shot at ya
And kill subliminally
You can go on
And spin your group name 25 times in one song
I'll still write about you
Hip hop is better off without you
Blowing niggas outta they bathrobes
And funky house shoes
For the hell of it
I fuck Missy Elliott
Don't give a fuck if her belly gets
In my way, I'm still nailing it
Got this verbal tech nine
Spitting at you for telling shit
Get this dead body off the mic
I'm fuckin smelling it
[Kon Artis]
Fuck it
Let's have a scrub out
Fuck around with us and see what happen
We all got them guns blappin
Got y'all niggas back tracking
Ya, we dump bodies in seashores
Busting DJs over they backs with keyboards
Turn up my levels
Your crew is fruitier than pebbles
Changin you razor back MCs to running trebles
Bust up
Kon Artis, quick to smack your slut up
Keep a pack of rubbers
Just in case I gotta nutt up
Brigade style hold 'em out down
That's how it's meant to be
You kick the same shit
Your whole tape sound like a symphony
Don't say shit to me
It's DP carry your daughter
Talking bitches outta they panties
Dollars and last quarters
Like that horsemen
I'll leave your whack crowns hutless
Watch Defarius come to my show
And leave dreadless
Whoever said this slash rapper and producer
Wouldn't make your head twist
Guard your grill and your necklace
[Chorus]
I got 6 reasons why we keep shit coming
Dirty Dozen left niggas running for cover
Hiding behind your lovers
Skirting off peeling rubber
As we shout
"DON'T FUCK WITH DIRTY DOZEN"
6 reasons why keep shit coming
Dirty Dozen left niggas running for cover
Hiding behind your lovers
Skirting off peeling rubber
As we shout
"DON'T FUCK WITH DIRTY DOZEN"
I got 6 reasons why we keep shit coming
Dirty Dozen left niggas running for cover
Hiding behind your lovers
Skirting off peeling rubber
As we shout
"DON'T FUCK WITH DIRTY DOZEN"
Yeah yeah bitch (what what)
We'll bring it to your crew
We'll bring it to your crew
Any of y'all
Die bitch
Don't fuck with Dirty Dozen
Dirty Dozen
Bugz
Proof
Bizarre
Don't fuck with Dirty Dozen
Da Brigade bitch

The saga starts right now
If you ain't down with us from this day on

Give me the reason
That I want...
- Give me the reason to love you
And I want to love you more
Oh give me the reason to love you
And I want to love you more
Sitting in here thinking about you
And all the joy you bring oh baby
I just can't live without you
Cause your love means everything
Honey I've got to tell you
Just how you make me feel
Oh baby my love will never leave you
Cause I will be right here
And you know that I would do anything
Not to lose your love, not to lose your love
Cause your love gives me the reason
And I want you more each day
And you know that I would do anything
Not to lose your love, to lose your love
Cause your love gives me the reason
And I want you more, I need baby
- When I can't seem to find my way
You brighten up my darkest day

Reason
Oh theirs gotta be a reason
Behind the things that you do.
Treasons
Find me guilty of treason
Making evil out of good.
Well I pick up my life and I turn and walk away
Well I pick up my life and I turn and walk away
Pick up my life and live for everyday
Pick up my feet and I turn and walk away.
Stop!
You better stop and listen
See what tomorrow may bring
Oh well it may just bring you sunshine
And it may just bring you rain.
Oh well I pick up my life and I turn and walk away
Oh well I pick up my life and I turn and walk away
Pick up my life and live for everyday
Oh well pick up my feet and I turn and walk away.
(Guitar Solo)
Pick up my feet and I turn and walk away.
Help
You got to help yourself
To live together with your friends
Well were all using somebody
To make it in the end.
Well I pick up my life and I turn and walk away
Well I pick up my life and I turn and walk away
Well pick up my life and live for everyday
Pick up my feet and I turn and walk away

Some people are dreamers, they live for the future
As if it would work out, just as they dreamed it
Would work out - somehow
Others get caught in yesterday's papers
Too busy reading, to get on with living
But I - live for now
Sometimes it's easy to make up excuses
On the flimsiest pretext and then call them reasons
But where are they now?
Like I'm way too busy, I can't be involved now
And then there's the standby about understanding
But they're - wrong somehow
I'll climb more than a mountain
Swim more than an ocean
Build up an island
Live for a lifetime
Just give me a reason and I'll come running
When I have reasons, I know the way
I'm pointing my feet in the right direction
Give me a reason
Some people are dreamers, they live for the future
As if it would work out, just as they dreamed it
Would work out - somehow
I'll climb more than a mountain
Swim more than an ocean
Build up an island
LIve for a lifetime
Just give me a reason and I'll come running
When I have reasons, I know the way
I'm pointing my feet in the right direction

come through me
subdue me
you arrive and I'm on fire
to explode that you inspired
in the name of all great liars
so groovily
second episode all smiles
improvising Kaufman style
let's make a movie
they are all reasons to me
they are all reasons to see
they are all reasons to be
they are all reasons to me
change the colors shapes and size
how the hell do you do this?
so foolish
I'm clueless
help me to get through this
not one thing I recognize
every now's a big surprise
stay with me until I die
there's nothing else I wanna try
they are all reasons to me
they are all reasons to be
they are all reasons to me
they are all reasons to see
they are all reasons to be
they are all reasons to me

The lights exploded
She stood burning in front of me
She ripped my heart out and gave it to me
My eyes wouldn't open, cemented to her face
Have I begun a feeble chase?
I'll be down, I'll be around
I'll be hanging where eventually you'll have to be
I'll just stare and hope you'll care
It's only everything standing in front of me
I know what you did to me
I know what you did was wrong
You're allowed to torture me
Wait a moment until I'm gone
I know you're the ticket, you gotta be
'Cause I let you be alone for long
Got to be so completely
Got to be so I can't hang on
I'll be down, I'll be around
I'll be hanging where eventually you'll have to be
I'll just stare and hope you'll care
It's only everything standing in front of me
I'll be down, I'll be around
I'll be hanging where eventually you'll have to be
They're not there, you're standing there

this world's sickening
words do nothing Buy
screaming for nothing
you're screaming for change
screaming for you
to not look the other way
screaming for nothing
you're screaming for change
screaming for you
to not look the other way
matthew shepard

this world's heartless
clinic bombings
people starving
human failure
feed us cancer screaming for nothing
you're screaming for change
screaming for you
to not look the other way
screaming for nothing
you're screaming for change
screaming for you
to not look the other way
and I hope its not too late yeah

its all over now
can't call ourselves human
its all over now
we can't call ourselves human
its all over now
we can't call ourselves human
its all over now
its all over now

watch the water feed the soil
so the circle is complete
see what you have become
is the earth beneath my feet
i'll bring in the stains
your alabaster feet
what's the space between
what you want and what you need
so you'll never be lonely again
never be lonely again
waiting for this love
to bring me close to you
waiting for this love
bring me close to you
who are you
and where are you in my life
i was wondering how much of me
is still alive
i don't even know
if i can swim again
you know how cold it gets
with all your struggling
try to find ourselves
seems real
it gets so hard at times
you know just what to feel
waiting for this love
to bring me close to you
waiting for this love
bring me close to you
i got reasons
i got reasons
watch the water bleed the soil
albinoed by the sun
we will try to keep our feet
in the face of what we've done
try to find ourselves
see this, what we made?
tell me what you want
and what you have betrayed
home is still the place
that we love the most
home is where you are

I rode from TJ up to Berkeley
And it started out so grey
Till I lost that cool protection
When the sun burned it all away
While the winter's light shined down on those
Revivals from my day
I had dreams of your insurrection
Taken down by Monterey
I don't care for the season
I don't find it that fun
And I've got 21 reasons
I've got 21 reasons
And there go 22 singers on the run
First I saw the digits crawling
Slowly up the rocky coast
Just some separated fingers
Looking for their fingerpost
From the water jumped a bloody hand
Needing desperately a host
When I saw the bald bell ringers
Well I knew then that you were toast
I don't care for the season
I don't find it that fun
And I've got 21 reasons
I've got 21 reasons
And there go 22 singers on the run
Then went up the baby babels
Where the iron bells were hung
They couldn't get them any higher
And those iron bells were rung
With the singers now all gathered
They collected every tongue
And so now it was required
For every soul to turn the dung
I don't care for the season
I don't find it that fun
And I've got 21 reasons
I've got 21 reasons
And there go 22 singers on the run
Well you sure can hear a rumble
On the royal road today
And those grand halls of correction
Well I think that they're here to stay
From the time that you are born
There are certain bells you must obey
Best you plan for the resurrection
Best you lower your head and pray
I don't care for the season
I don't find it that fun
And I've got 21 reasons
I've got 21 reasons
And there go 22 singers on the run
21 reasons
21 reasons

Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
It's a Saturday night
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Uh uh, it's a Saturday night
Full crew stepping at the function
Keith Lawrence is a weapon of mass destruction
Brixton DJ and he played the funk, son
A local hero yo, but now he ain't unsung
Jimmy brought rum, he looking for clean cups
No snacks here, you won't be dancing on peanuts
Strictly hot food, keep you nice and strong
So you can go on and on and last long
Every time I hear this song, this song
I will be played deep brown, the place teared down
Dangerous on the door, seen it all before
Coats and bags on the floor by the decks
Me next to DJ, I carry the swing
[Incomprehensible] as he exercising
Everybody moving as a unified swing
Gentle up and down fingertips rolling salsa
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Mark and Devo in the corner, heading on in by the speaker
Dressed cool, never known to freak
Outside by the pool on chairs and bars stools
Are the lovers long term manually discovered
Some for romance, sum in each others pants
Some debutantes with pool side veterans
What better than you catch a cross delta
And grab a kiss with the moon? That's the number what a
Food still hot 'cause your pot's still steaming
Casey screaming, he's not doing the cleaning
While he's leaning back with a large grin left
After him party would simply start again
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
This is how I make the party sway
Yo, I got more styles than Amsterdam got ashtrays
I blaze in the shadows with my compadres
And I stay close to home where I'm known to praise
I was raised down south where running your mouth
Is something my people know all about
It's a semi professional pastime, gotta get the last line
You know it's your shout
It's a Saturday night
Come again
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
Reasons to be cheerful, one, two, three
