Oh how the sun used to shine. Each morning held the promise of something new to find.
Each day held more mystery and wonder than the last, but oh...
These days have long past.
And
Oh how my parents would smile at the possible futures for their
wonderful child
At the glorious nation and the freedoms galore, but oh...
They forgot about war.
For we live in the blink of an eye.
On the grandest of scales we are born and we die
And the Fires of hell fuel the war
One day someone will settle the score.
Oh how the rain would come down as i'd sit inside and watch
the puddles grow on the ground
Creating my own worlds alone in my mind while kids
in the third world died.
And
Oh how i watched the world change, at first it was subtle
and then it was strange
As the dreams of my childhood were falling apart
Oh Something died in my heart.
For we live in the blink of an eye.
On the grandest of scales we are born and we die
And the Fires of hell fuel the war
One day someone will settle the score.

Poison and Vitamins
04:08

Oh Its tragic you know...
We take our vitamins, we pick our poison and forget,
what we're doing here
Forsake the infinite, kill the innocent and forget,
it was ever here.
We can't go on Living this way, you know?
So I am asking you to say No.
The scars are permanent. The wounds will never mend or
go away.
And everybody knows that that's just how it goes or so
they say,
but i believe in something more.
There's gotta be something worth fighting for.
If all we know is all we are, then everything is poison.
If all we see is all we'll be, then everything is poison.

She Said

She said she wants me, but she don't know.
I guess the feelings, they come and they go.
She said she wants me, but i guess she don't...
Maybe that's why she told me to go...
And you could just lie, Lie away,
'Cuz what you say doesn't matter anyway... Yeah.
Lie away.
She said she loves me, but she don't know.
I guess the feelings, they come and they go.
She said she loves me, but i guess she don't...
Maybe that's why she told me to go...
And you could just lie, Lie away,
'Cuz what you say doesn't matter anyway... Yeah
Lie away.
Lie. Lie away.

I'm a local writer, like Rich Steeves to Misty Johnson,
I got a death wish like my name was Charles Bronson.
I'm a constant, something like a consonant,
And I'mma rock these words across the continent.
So you best come correct or else call collect
Cuz you ain't walkin outta this one without a broken neck.
Man you're always writin checks that your ass can't cash.
I'm a lyrical mack truck, leave you with road rash.
I'm not in it for the cash, bro i'm in it for the Love.
and these hip hop kicks fit just like rubber gloves.
I ain't a gangsta, nah, something like a middle-man
in between the world and a wall blastin a spray can
doing all that i can do to try to change the world,
so there's a world to live in for the future boys and girls.
And we don't need a club to stand beside each other,
sticking up for one another like we're sisters or we're brothers.
We ain't got much time left, we gotta change the world.

We're in the shadow of the colossus and we're at a cross road
and it's our turn to decide the way the future goes
if we just go with the flow then we'll get passed out,
and the future of our species is completely assed out
cuz the fat cats on top, They're just gonna cash out
and act all appalled when we start lashing out
like, "We've got no idea what they're all upset about."
thats why i'm spitting it at you straight so there ain't no doubt.
Modern warfare? I'm talking weather weapons.
Technology that makes disaster rain from the heavens.
acts of mass destruction without a soldier ever stepping
they've got their eyes to the skies, I'm talking Armageddon.
They're poisoning the people up with tainted vaccines,
Genetically destabilizing animals and greens
Purposely running it far beyond their means to make their wallets fill up until they burst at the seams.
Its a disease, all this ignorance i see.
people living out their lives through the eyes of their t.v.
ain't going nowhere without an http
with sites selling peoples faces like, "Do you know me?"
Corporations evade responsibility and
the Fed prints money that we never see,
and the people that let the madmen run free
are the people getting cheered when they appear on TV
The poor get taxed the rich could feed like
wolves dressed up as men and consumed with greed
taking everything so the rich get richer,
please tell me whats the matter with this picture
obama raised the roof on this house of cards
because the cabinet is full of empty cups and retards.
its a deathmatch between the common man and congress, you can't trust the government cuz they could give a fuck less.

Odis - I'm Trouble
03:29
|

Let me try to describe how i feel when i look in your eyes.
it like every time i do i almost get butterflies
i want to set the world on fire with my desire.
listen to me girl because i am not a liar.
i just wish that i could tell you how i feel
without killing myself in the process. lets be real.
I cut a deal with the devil when i was born
and now it seems that in my older days i must mourn
the decisions of my past
it all happened so fast
and i couldn't really grasp all the things that were
passing me by, and now i'm like, "Why?"
a tear in my eyes as i'm raised to the skies
and it seems like the world's got me tripping again
making it hard to pick my enemies from my friends.
What happens now? i guess it really depends on
if you want to make it end instead of making amends.
I never meant to cause you trouble
I never meant to bring you pain
I never meant to cause you trouble
Now I will never do those things again.
I guess i should apologize, but i'm not sorry for being me
and if you're asking me to change then you can't really love me
so whats the point? why are we trying to chase the thunder?
Could we have made things work? I guess we'll just have to wonder
but its okay its not your fault i guess its mine
for sitting back and watching everything run out of time
and everything in the universe operates within design
so when everything is said and done i know you'll be just fine.
but the lessons that we've learned will stay with us until the end,
and you know the ages say, "all broken hearts will someday mend."
but i guess i made you bend until you felt that you would break
made you fuckin hurt so bad that that was all that you could take
tell me where do we go from here?
tell me where will you go my dear?
i know that i will be just fine but things won't be the same without you here
well i guess its the end of the page but not the end of the book.
so i guess i'd like to thank you for a ride i'm glad i took.
I never meant to cause you trouble.
I never meant to bring you pain.
i never meant to cause you trouble.
Now I will never do those things again.

Listen to the symphony of Breaking bones.
You won't get out alive. You will not survive.
I will take your life.
Round and Round we go, where we stop noone knows.
You have brought this chaos on yourself
With every crushing blow that you have dealt.
Watching as we all begin to sway.
So today will be your dying day.
I am an explosion waiting to happen.
you made your bed, now you must sleep in it.
And as you're hiding under the covers tonight i hope you realize the monster is there.
Waiting. Hating. Brooding.
Rose from the ocean, rise from the sea.
rise my leviathan, and bring the world to its knees.

Do you remember those dark and distant roads
that we used to walk along when we ran away at night
that they used to find us on when they caught us in their lights
where we hid in the darkness and passed away the night
so close to death we prayed we'd be alright
Press on for the morning where the mist will hide our footsteps
We'll keep on going until our legs collapse
"i swear I'll carry you" "I swear i'll bury you"
We'll figure these things out along the way.
So here we go again into the dark.
Nothing can hold us back, because i know you're always there.
Stand by me until the end, until the darkness sucks us in.
Follow me into darkness.

Heat. Baby make me sweat.
Where there's smoke you know there's fire and i'm burning like a cigarette.
Baby, ooh i'd love to burn, but when you play with fire there's a lesson you've gotta learn.
Love, Love, Love's got me burning, Love's Got me burning up.
I've got you wrapped around my pretty Little finger, and now i'll do what i want to do. Caught in the moment and i want to let it linger.
I'll do whatever it takes to get to you.
Now i've got you baby right where i want, and things are heating up.
The steam is rising baby burning me up, burning me, burning me up
Love, Love, Love's got me burning, Love's Got me burning up.

They heard the word, the word that you told them,
But what they got, its not what you sold them.
Create a beast Designed to control them,
Now they're just a part of your program.
What will you say when they take away all the things that make us human? What will you say?
I hope you Say "You can't take away all the things that make us human!" What will you say?
Double Double, toil and trouble, let the fire burn
Cuz maybe once we've killed ourselves then everyone will learn.
Like Cowards we will fall with our backs against the wall,
unless we make a stand.
Not to burst your pretty bubble, but i've had about enough.
Distracted by the world we live in so we'll never give it up,
But someone dropped the ball, if its one it must be all.
Lets take back our home land.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Every human being on the face of this planet is born with a voice. What will you do with yours?"
What will you say when they take away all the things that make us human? What will you say?
I hope you Say "You can't take away all the things that make us human!" What will you say?
