Vent
she's the one makes me feel these ways
he's the one needs some raise/ways
can't stand to feel
hate to feel
gone insane
hijack a plane
don't push me cos i'm close to the edge
tryin' hard not to lose my head
can hardly breathe
i've been recieved/decieved
she hides my ventolin
can hardly breathe [x3]
i'm the one
who hides his medicine
watch him stop breathing
watch him bleed
I right the wrongs and take his songs
an we'll all live happily ever after
can hardly breathe [x3]
and we all seem together now
can hardly breathe [repeat till end]

Bad Dream
This is a matter of utmost urgency
You might even call it a police emergency
Suckers got ill when they finally heard the G
Wasn't sellin' out, they tried to murder me
Reached for my jammy like a troop's supposed to do
Never let a sucker get too close to you
Heard 'em comin', ducked behind the wall
Then saw the whites of his eyes, the first one had to fall
Another bug creeped up the fire escape
Trying to sneak, I guess he snuck too late
Lookin' like a scene from Real Life Vice
The way his head fell apart like a block of solid ice
Uzi does it, come to think of it
Dude had a nine, but his wasn't as fast as mine
I heard the phone ring, should I answer?
This is gettin' serious as terminal cancer
And that is the final stage, my primal rage
Began to rise and I started to fantasize
How many more might try to rush the door
And blast their way in, hell, I ain't stayin'
I opened the back door and felt the summer night heat
Saw a bunch of bugs wearin' white sheets
What else could it mean? I know it ain't Halloween
The cross in the background burnin' made a ill scene
First I was panicky, then I was angry
One creep even had a rope ready to hang me
Now who am I supposed to be? Eddie Spaghetti?
You come and vic Rob G any time you're ready?
Fuck that, they had me trapped so I rushed back
They tried to bust me but they don't have enough caps
I dipped, dived, slipped, slid, they missed me
I had to move quick or they was bound to get me
One bullet grazed me, that didn't phase me
What could I say? I was havin' a fucked up day
Stood up and took aim, my finger on the trigger
I shouted "Now let me hear you say nigger!"
Well anyway, nobody spoke or went for broke
The place was all clouded up from gunsmoke
And everything got quiet, I don't buy it
Just a second ago we had a riot
They must be plannin' attack or settin' a trap
Whatever the case you won't get this black
Now I'm on the edge and there's no denyin' it
Whatever the hell might work I'm tryin' it
Thought I was a target that they could get right quick
But I ain't goin' out like no statistic
Another number, made me wonder
How many other brothers they've put under
I sat in the dark real still for a long time
Didn't make a sound cos I've got a strong mind
Made my way to the street, it was daybreak
Must've fallen asleep, but for Pete's sake
I didn't see the enemy tryin' to put an end to me
The night before, my finger trigger was sore
I went in the house to get a fresh clip
And then I woke up an' shit...
(It's a bad dream, man. That's all, man, you know what I'm sayin'?
Guess I was just buggin' or somethin', man...)
Makes Me Wanna Die
Follow where Mary goes
Cherish the things she knows
Says if I change my stride
Then I'll fly
She makes me wanna die
Change my stride
Then I'll fly
Look to the sun
See me in psychic pollution
Walking on the moon
How could you dare?
Who do you think you are?
You're insignificant
A small piece, an ism
No more no less
You try to learn the universe
Can't even converse in universe
You know its ironic smoking hydroponic
She makes me wanna die
Change my stride
Then I'll fly
She makes me wanna die
Repeat until: Can't even converse in universe
(but leave out fifth line: She makes me wanna die)

Sex Drive
The first 2 lines should be replaced with:
What you gonna do with your sex drive?
wait for your soul to catch up with me
concretely seen
i talk to him
i wanna lie
she looks at me
i wanna hide
wanna be rich and fat
How do I validate that?
i think every time to fluid
i cut my mouth...
do i, returning into there
can i rest my head on your chest and dribble
you know the rules i speaks in riddle
pain is somewhere along the line(2x)
It takes courage and strength to be single
when you get older your body won't look so good
this is the peak, the best time for a relationship
i'm the only shiek in moscow
i said if you're in love let go my hand now
the older i get the more confused i am
the older i get the more bitter i am
damn it jesus
they want more more pleasure more Regis
i sway one way with my head down
i don't wanna get a conflicting mind state
you hold the national wealth
i get the, i get the national health
you told me i was the original guttersnipe
but really i'm the original isrealite
i live in a ghetto forever after
so you manufacture the ghetto blaster
but i'm out now, i'm older
don't carry music on my shoulder
you think i'm a wild terrier
now i can afford to live in your area....
(mumbling)
the older i get the more confused i am
the confused i am the older i get
Bad Things
Choose me if...
I wish I didn't feel
I wanna do bad things and then we're one again
I wanna do bad in those movies
They say squeeze never put it
Muscles wrapped round the bullet
And you say you be brought into it
OK, let me make a phone call
I'd rather you float down the river-sea
Voodoo Heathen, fuck around with my privacy
I wish I didn't feel
I wanna do bad things
and then we're one again
I wanna do bad things in the movies
we never squeeze, never pull it
Muscles wrap round the bullet
And you see you be brought into it
Get at me, make a phone call
I'd rather you float down that river-sea
Voodoo Heathen, fuck around with my privacy
Would you like to see me a for real winner?
I'd probably buy a brother dinner
I'd rather speak another language
I know she's my toasted sandwich
Be careful of food
She's egotistical and rude
and it's all about me
My fucking name
I'm the one again
It's you to say i'm nice
Don't wanna ask twice
Wanna break those chains
Make the whole world know
Wanna break those chains
Make the whole world know my fucking name
And I break those chains
They don't wanna know my fucking name
and I'm born again
And it's you to say I'm nice
Don't wanna ask twice
Wanna give the poor riches
Why don't you stop saying bitches
Wanna be good
Wanna be a homeboy from the hood
Pretend I'm from America
and this is Blues
Chief of the Cherokee
Wanna break those chains
Make the whole world know my fucking name
and I'm one again
And I'm the one again
Its you to say I'm nice
Don't wanna ask twice
Giving the poor all the riches
I'll never just stop saying bitches
Wanna be good
Wanna be a homeboy from the hood
Pretend I'm from America
Pretend this is Blues
Chief of the Chreokee
I wish I didn't feel
I wanna do bad things
And then we're one again
And then we're one again (to fade)
Lyrics of Fury
I'm rated "R"...this is a warning, ya better void,
Poets are paranoid, DJ's D-stroyed,
Cuz I came back to attack others in spite-
Strike like lightnin', It's quite frightenin'!
But don't be afraid in the dark, in a park,
Not a scream or a cry, or a bark, more like a spark;
Ya tremble like a alcoholic, muscles tighten up,
What's that, lighten up! You see a sight but,
Suddenly you feel like you're in a horror flick,
You grab your heart then wish for tomorrow quick!
Music's the clue, when I come your warned,
Apocolypse Now, when I'm done, ya gone!
Haven't you ever heard of a MC-murderer?
This is the death penalty,and I'm servin' a
death wish, so come on, step to this
hysterical idea for a lyrical professionist!
Friday the thirteenth, walking down Elm Street,
you come in my realm ya get beat!
This is off limits, so your visions are blurry,
All ya see is the meters at a volume,
pumping Lyrics of Fury!
it's a ....fearified freestyle!
Terror in the styles, never error-files,
indeed I'm known-your exiled!
For those that oppose to be level or next to this...
I ain't a devil and this ain't the Exorcist!
worse than a nightmare, you don't have to sleep a wink,
the pain's a migraine every time ya think,
Flashbacks interfere, ya start to hear:
The R-A-K-I-M in your ear;
Then the beat is hysterical,
that makes Eric go get a ax and chops the wack,
soon the lyrical format is superior,
faces of death remain,
MC's decaying, cuz they never stayed,
the scene of a crime every night at the show,
the fiend of a rhyme on the mic that you know,
It's only one capable, breaks-the unbreakable,
melodies-unmakable, pattern-unecscapable,
a horn if want the style I posses,
I bless the child, the earth, the gods and bomb the rest,
for those that envy a MC it can be,
hazardous to your health so be friendly,
a matter of life and death, just like a etch-a-sketch,
shake 'till your clear, make it disappear, make the next,
after the ceremony, let the rhyme rest in peace,
if not, my soul'll release!
the scene is recreated, reincarnated, updated, I'm glad you made it,
cuz you're about to see a disasterous sight,
a performance never again performed on a mic:
Lyrics of fury!
My Evil Is Strong
"Well I see it so much..."
Before you test, know what's going on,
I've been around for long, my evil is strong
I lie awake and hate you,
maybe that's strong enough to make you
12 12 catch up
Before you test, know what's going on,
I've been around for long, my evil is strong
I lie awake and hate you,
Maybe that's strong enough to make something happen-
A car crash, make you pay with a weapon
A gun in your mouth, my voice in your mind.
Before you test, know what's going on,
I've been around for long, my evil is strong
I lie awake and hate you
Maybe that's enough to make you do something-
make it happen-
A car crash, make you pay with a weapon
A gun in your mouth, my voice in your mind.
Sleep and I'll find you,
Put my mind to
Am I strong enough?
Watch me rock a thousand stage
My funny valentine, I don't find you funny
Seaside, the Sony, the fame the money
Who am I to say, do you wannabe?
No, I can't say it
My mouth is like a...
Bitter sweet and twisted, decietful and gifted
Even got god scared
Mend the things we did
Making children
Strong enough to take a life,
Are you strong enough to take care of one?
I'm a work on it, pray on it, stay on (in) it and stay in it
Before you test, know what's going on,
I've been around for long, my evil is strong
I lie awake and hate you
Maybe that's enough to make something happen,
A car crash, make you pay with a weapon
A gun in your mouth, my voice in your mind
Sleep and I'll find you,
Put my mind to
Am I strong enough?
Watch me rock a 50,000 stage
cannot tell me-do you feel it?
Is this energy strong enough to work you like a blade?
I'm a work on it, pray on it, stay on it
My funny valentine, I don't find you funny
Seaside, the Sony
The fame, the money
Who am I to say, do you wannabe?
No, I can't say it
My mouth is like a...
Bitter sweet and twisted,
Decietful and gifted,
Even got god scared
Mend the things we do
Making children strong enough to take a life
Are you strong enough to look after one?
I'm a work on it, pray on it, stay in it
My funny valentine, I never find you funny
Seaside, the Sony,
The fame, the Money
Who am I to say?
Still want to be?
No, I can't say it
My mouth is like a...
Bitter sweet and twisted,
Decietful, rough and gifted,
Even got god scared
Even God's--God's scared
Mend the things we do
Making children strong enough to take a life,
But are you strong enough to take care of one?
I'm a work on it, pray on it, stay in it
