If there's any bitches in this room, then there's something I gotta say
For all the fools who fell for the first girl who comes their way
I've been down that road and now I'm back, sittin' on square one
Tryna pick myself up where I started from
I never woulda thought that I'd see you outta control
Even though my penis was deep down in your hole
You should know between us we was like mates to soul
Nothing could intervene us, especially no hoes
You was more so the chalant type, I chose
To more shows, haunted you nights I suppose
That's how it go, with time spent, emotion grows
In the beginning, friends we decided to roll
So who's responsible when you get excited, explode
And Obie's grinning, then you invite that Obie's cold
But bitches the gon' talk, niggas they gon' hate
We established this way before we became mates
So whats required is that you chill with all that fire
Get your desire when I retire
[Chorus]
Spend some time with me, say that you'll be mine
I never thought I'd find someone to be mine
Lord knows I was right cuz you just crossed the line
Spend some time with me, say that you'll be mine
I used to say I never met a girl like you before
Still ain't got a fuckin' clue as to who you truly are
Almost went as far as introducing you to my daughters
Till you went as far as goin' and snoopin' through my drawers
Now I just feel stupid for the loop that you threw me for
Can't believe I almost flew the coop for some stupid whore
You used to say all you wanted was for me to be yours
All I ever wanted from you was a few booty calls
If you recall I used to treat you as a groupie broad
When we fucked I refused to even take my jewelry off
But it threw me off the first time I called and you blew me off
It was a shock, it struck me as odd but it turned me on
You started getting moody on me, pretty soon we'd argue
And the ruder you got, the more beautiful you got to me
And who woulda even knew that who woulda even thought possibly
Cupid could shoot another one of them God damn darts at me
It's true that I got shot in the heart
But when someone seems too good to be true, they usually are
But see, when you're in it it's too hard to see
Till you pull up and see some other dude's car parked and reach
Up under the seat as your heart starts to beat
Before you make a decision that's life altering
And just as you halt and you turn and you start to leave
You hear them words echoing, almost haunting, that taunting ring
[Chorus]
In most cases, Stat's attitude is fuck-a-bitch
My only motive is to get head and fuck a bitch
But you was different, thought we shared a covenant
Even held your hand in public, we sufferin' because of this
Shorty on some whole 'notha other shit
Tryna play sick thinkin' i'mma trick off rick
I'll admit, I was caught in the mix, down to commit
Feed you the best of me, I shoulda fed you piss
We started off closer than close
But who coulda predicted to know, your triflin' ways woulda stopped our growth
And the final result, back in that same boat
I ask myself, do I love these hoes? NO!
Em introduced us, "50 this is Tanya, Tanya this is 50"
Then slid off and left her to kick it with me
I complimented her, I said you have very nice lips
With my imagination, I could see her suckin' my dick
We played the phone game, a week later, shit changed fast
Had her comin' over in a cab to give me some ass
Downtown Manhattan on the balcony, stare at the skyline
Penthouse full of imported shit, you know how I grind
She got to talkin', talkin' like an opportunist too
Why talk when suckin' my dick is the real career move?
Said she's an inspiring actress, she do videos for practice
Yeah, yeah, know how many times I done heard that shit?
A life less ordinary
A second chance to believe
Spending my time wishing
Something would fall into reach
There's no use in pretending
I've wasted unspoken words
There's comfort in knowing
In knowing just what you're worth
Falling deeper
I'm falling deeper
So let me out
Let me out
Let me go now, something's missing
I just want my life to change
It all seems the same, i'm feeling caged
I'm tired of breaking down
Let me go now, i've learned my lessons
I'm so numb, i've passed the pain
It all seems the same, i need a change
From my ordinary world
I avoid myself when i can
But somehow i'm crawling underneath
Trying to break the habits
But it takes a stronger remedy
There's always pain in mending
The withdrawl of slowly coming clean
Have i the strength to face it
The darkest place inside of me
Falling deeper
I'm falling deeper
So let me out
Let me out
Let me go now, something's missing
I just want my life to change
It all seems the same, i'm feeling caged
I'm tired of breaking down
Let me go now, i've learned my lessons
I'm so numb, i've passed the pain
It all seems the same, i need a change
From my ordinary world
How long will i stand
In the waiting line
How long will i wait here
For my chance to shine
How long can i take this
I'm running out of time
Hoping by tomorrow
I won't feel the same
Please understand
This isn't just goodbye
This is I can't stand you
This is where the road crashed into the ocean
It rises all around me
And now we're barely breathing
A thousand faces we'll choose to ignore
Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation leaves me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy
I listen to you cry
A cry for less attention
But both my hands are tied
And I'm pushed into the deep end
I listen to you talk but talk is cheap
And my mouth is filled with blood
From trying not to speak
So search for an excuse
And someone to believe you
In foreign dressing rooms
I'm empty with the need to
Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation leaves me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy
Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation is leaving me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy
Please understand
Lay rotting where I fall
I'm dead from bad intentions
Suffocated and embalmed
And now all our dreams are cashed in
You swore you wouldn't lose then lost your brain
You make a sound that feels like pain
So please understand
This isn't just goodbye
This is I can't stand you
All her signals are getting lost in the ether (That's what she wanted)
She's a landslide with a city beneath her (That's what she wanted)
So take a good look, so you'll never forget it (That's what she wanted)
Take a deep breath, I know I'm gonna regret it (That's what she wanted)
Holly's looking dry looking for an easy target
Let her slit my throat give her ammo if she'll use it
Caution on the road lies lies and hidden danger.
Southern California's breeding mommy's little monster.
She's got a mission, and I'm collateral damage. (That's what she wanted)
She's the flower that you place on my casket. (That's what she wanted)
Savor the moment cause the memory's fleeting.
Take a photograph, as the last train is leaving.
Holly's looking dry looking for an easy target
Let her slit my throat give her ammo if she'll use it
Caution on the road lies lies and hidden danger.
Southern California's breeding mommy's little monster.
Better run run run run run (Holly let me out)
Better run run run run run (Holly let me out)
Better run run run run run (Holly let me out)
Better run run run run run run run (Holly let me out)
He said "Son, have you seen the world?
Well, what would you say if I said that you could?
Just carry this gun and you'll even get paid."
I said "That sounds pretty good."
Black leather boots
Spit-shined so bright
They cut off my hair but it looked alright
We marched and we sang
We all became friends
As we learned how to fight
A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust
I kicked in the door
I yelled my commands
The children, they cried
But I got my man
We took him away
A bag over his face
From his family and his friends
They took off his clothes
They pissed in his hands
I told them to stop
But then I joined in
We beat him with guns
And batons not just once
But again and again
A hero of war
Yeah that's what I'll be
And when I come home
They'll be damn proud of me
I'll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it's a flag that I love
And a flag that I trust
She walked through bullets and haze
I asked her to stop
I begged her to stay
But she pressed on
So I lifted my gun
And I fired away
The shells jumped through the smoke
And into the sand
That the blood now had soaked
She collapsed with a flag in her hand
A flag white as snow
A hero of war
Is that what they see
Just medals and scars
So damn proud of me
And I brought home that flag
Now it gathers dust
But it's a flag that I love
It's the only flag I trust
He said, "Son, have you seen the world?
Well what would you say, if I said that you could?"
Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
You say go slow
I fall behind
The 2nd hand unwinds
If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
Just what you've said
You say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows you're wondering
If I'm ok
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The drumbeats out of time
If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time
If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
There's a playground that we used to run on
The penny-drop that broke her arm
The monkey bars that you fell from
The swingset chain that stuck with my tongue
It's thirty below and we're far gone
If you plant yourself here I wouldn't miss you for long
But then comes the day when you leave town
I'm back to the way I was when you weren't around
If you want to know what that was like
I'll tell you first, it was way too quiet
It rained a hundred nineteen days of the year
I spent my time falling down the stairs
I know I can't tie you to a leash
But something tells me you'd go further than Greece
And then I'll have to figure out what to do
I'm kind of afraid I'm co-dependent on you
I'm freaking out that we've started breaking down
Before momentum picked up
Now all these doors are locked
The trees trick you 'cause they're always standing still
If time was really racing by
You could see it when you drive
There's a rooftop deck where we still hang out
A couple of bars where we're not allowed
The roller-skates that threw you on your face
The park on the hill which was our only space
The fog is fast and it rolls right in
About the time I struck my first fifth of gin
I really don't mean to complain too much
But this is turning me into quite the lush
I'm freaking out that we're running out of time
But to do what?
Should I stop and think of that?
Is there something I could do to slow it down?
Live in a day for once
Instead of watch it screaming by
You're a dandelion seed
That flies through the air
And lands randomly
Then disappears
x2
I'm freaking out that we've started breaking down
Before momentum picked up
Now all these doors are locked
The trees trick you 'cause they're always standing still
If time was really racing by
You could see it when you drive
Little Terry got a gun, he got from the store,
He bought it with the money he got from his chores,
He robbed candy shop told her lay down on the floor,
Put the cookies in his bag took the pennies out the drawer.
Little Kalil got a gun he got from the rebels,
To kill the infidels and American devils,
A bomb on his waist,
A mask on his face,
Prays five times a day,
And listens to Heavy Metal.
Little Alex got a gun he took from his dad,
That he snuck into school in his black book bag,
His black nail polish, black boots and black hair,
He's gonna blow away the bully that just pushed his ass...
Old days golden,
covering the bases,
back when we used to punch each other in the faces
Under my skin, try on the ion
See how it feels,
let bygones be bygones
path of the obscure,
script of the well known
that's when we didn't know shit from the elbow
Underground meant something low water apocalypse
Cats stuck in the trees, robots & rocket ships
Way back when, Solid Gold! That song on the radio's nice (x4)
Hooks for hands, Trash in the can
Cash in the plan, Flash in the pan
Baseball, baseball makin' the catches
Tearin' the roof off, playing with matches
Bumped and bruised,
Dumped by the girlfriend
Satan n Santa Claus Waiting for the world to end
Dancing in the bathroom,
Suffering in hatred,
Cutting the trees down like nothing is sacred
Struck by lightning, brand new exciting dance
Writing grants, we might have had a fighting chance
Words like weapons that dealt a crushing blow
Under the stars on the edge of touch & go
Boogey man, dirty books, fingers crossed just in case
sadly mistaken trying to make it to second base
Men drew lines, young boys drew knives
Heavy study: Every body had two lives.
Way back when, Solid Gold! That song on the radio's nice (x4)
right right back to the past
like it was, like it was
cause it ain't like it was in the old days
Dry heaves, it's always so wide grieved,
Had to learn just to be so naïve,
odd jobs to buy stories & sold bottles
living in a world of superheroes and role models
big deals out of limits of friendship
stopping start throwing shopping carts off bridges
Men of the rodeo, Women of burlesque
Epic battles & apples on the teacher's desk
crying wolves, awaking in the cave
weakness, secrets taken to the grave
the bigger, the better
unfair & so drastic
things made of wood, long days and no plastic
floozies weighed a ton,
45ths, 33rds, Limits untested
first kisses & dirty words
Devils in the details, God saw errybody (Everybody)
bad joke but ha ha very funny!
Way back when...Solid Gold...That song on the radio's nice (x4)
way...back...when
cause it ain't like it was in the old days
old days, old days
Dead Celebrity Status
"While I Was Alseep"
Thought everything was perfect, but now I'm left deserted.
red handed, caught cheating, my hearts beating. Do I deserve this?
I used to love her, but now I wanna watch her suffer.
It makes me sick to my stomach thinking she sleeps with others.
I wanna break her pictures. I wanna burn her pictures.
Everything we had was wrong and now I'm glad it's gone with her.
She was a liar, denying that things were alright.
but meanwhile, she was up fucking him all night.
And all the things that she said, are now stuck in my head.
I'm such an idiot, to let you crawl back in my bed.
Those phone numbers in your back pocket weren't mine,
so fuck you both don't act like it's the first time.
[Female]
While you were sleeping, I was out creeping.
Said I went out with friends, but i was cheating.
When you were at home, I was at his home.
Slept in his bed, you slept alone.
We used to be together, thought it would be forever.
Until she turned around and ripped my heart right through my sweater.
How come you're so ungrateful. How come this feels so painful.
You're not so perfect, was it worth it to be so unfaithful
How could i be so naive? Sometimes I'm too trusting.
She sleeps with me and then she sleeps with him it's so disgusting.
Touching other people's property, obviously you're down with O.P.P.
That makes your nature naughty.
Everything she ever told me was a fucking lie.
Everything she ever did was with some other guy.
We should have never hooked up, thought you were one of a kind.
You wanna act like a slut? Then do it on your own time.
[Female]
While you were sleeping, I was out creeping.
Said I went out with friends, but i was cheating.
When you were at home, I was at his home.
Slept in his bed, you slept alone.
I never knew it could hurt like this.
I dedicate this to you, you bitch.
I never knew it could hurt like this.
I dedicate this to you, you bitch.
Oh my God I never knew love was so fatal.
She makes Paris Hilton looks like a fucking angel
That backstabbing bitch, what happened made me sick.
It's the same story, different author, man, the same old shit.
I want a perfect girl, it's not a perfect world,
'cuz she's a superstar gold-digging type of girl.
my dear, my dear, my dear, you do not know me but I know you very well.
And let me tell you that you make my life a, living hell.
I'm living well without you, I doubt you, will ever really see
the amount of trash you amount to.
She's a partial lover, undercover, no class.
So take ### these three minutes ### and shove them up your stupid ass.
I hope you're smart enough to learn from your dumb mistakes.
'cuz if not, you'll learn the hard way when the condom breaks.
I never knew it could hurt like this.
I dedicate this to you, you bitch
I never knew it could hurt like this
I dedicate this to you, you bitch.
Wait, I'm wrong
Should have done better than this
Please, I'll be strong
I'm finding it hard to resist
So show me what I'm looking for
Save me, I'm lost
Oh lord, I've been waiting for you
I'll pay any cost
Save me from being confused
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for... oh lord
Don't let go
I've wanted this far too long
Mistakes become regrets
I've learned to love abuse
Please show me what I'm looking for
Save me, I'm lost
Oh lord, I've been waiting for you
I'll pay any cost
Save me from being confused
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for... oh lord
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for
Save me, I'm lost
Oh lord, I've been waiting for you
I'll pay any cost
Just save me from being confused
Wait, I'm wrong
I can't do better than this
I'll pay any cost
Save me from being confused
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for
Show me what I'm looking for... oh lord
BRAINSTORM
Take me away from the norm
I've got to tell you something..
This phenomenon
I had to put it in a song,
and it goes like:
Whoa
Amber is the color of your energy
Whoa
Shades of gold displayed naturally
You ought to know what brings me here
You glide through my head blind to fear,
and I know why-
Whoa
Amber is the color of your energy
Whoa
Shades of gold displayed naturally
Whoa
Amber is the color of your energy
Whoa
Shades of gold displayed naturally
You live too far away
Your voice rings like a bell anyway
Don't give up your independence
unless it feels so right
Nothing good comes easily;
Sometimes you've got to fight
Whoa
Amber is the color of your energy
Whoa
Shades of gold displayed naturally
Launched a thousand ships in my heart, so easy
Still, it's fine from afar, and you know that
Whoa
Brainstorm
Take me away from the norm
Whoa
I've got to tell you something
