Everclear | Blackjack | /e/everclear/blackjack_20051984.html | Scary john gets his strong arm on
He can break me and make me
Happy with his blackjack

He smiles without his eyes
Nice and easy with his blackjack
Don't tell me that you didn't see this coming down
Please don't say that this isn't what you wanted now

You are a loser like the rest of your friends

Everclear | Breakfast At Tiffany's | /e/everclear/breakfast+at+tiffanys_20634670.html | You'll say, we've got nothing in common,
No common ground to start from,
And we're falling apart,
You'll say, the world has come between us,
Our lives have come between us,
Still I know you just don't care.
And I said, "What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think, we both kind of liked it. "
And I said, "Well that's, the one thing we've got."
I see you, the only one who knew me,
And now your eyes see through me,
I guess I was wrong,
So what now? It's plain to see we're over,
And I hate when things are over,
When so much is left undone.
And I said, "What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I, remember that film,
And, as I recall, I think, we both kind of liked it, "

Everclear | Eleanor Young | /e/everclear/eleanor+young_20052072.html | Eleanor young, eleanor child
Standing on a lonely hilltop in the appalachian wild
Eleanor sing, eleanor scream
Shout loud for your own green world
Doors don't open for the country girl
Oh, they lied to you
They sung to you songs you weren't meant to hear
They showed you life your eyes were never meant to see
Yeah, you should have seen right through
But you believed
Eleanor grow, eleanor cold
Midnight in a dim-lit diner, in the driving detroit snow
Eleanor yearn, eleanor learn
One child with no last name
Your boyfriend runs who do you blame
Oh, he lied to you
He did to you things they taught you were sin
He took from you the best that was within you
He showed you things your eyes should never have seen
And the saddest thing of all, baby you believed
Yeah, yeah, the saddest thing of all, you believed
Yeah mama you believed
Eleanor age, eleanor cage
See california on new year's day
Sun shines warm on the rose parade
Eleanor ache, eleanor break
Come out west with your last born child
I grew up scared, weird, and wild
Oh you lied to me
You hid from me knowledge I should have known
You kept from me the life that was my own
You shielded me from things I should have seen
For a very short while mama, I believed...

Everclear | Fire Maple Song | /e/everclear/fire+maple+song_20052104.html | Turn away from the pain you don't want
Turning down to avoid them when they call
Strange words I heard a long long time ago
I wish I could go back to a summer time
I knew more than twenty years ago
Lay between the sheets we lie underneath the maple tree
Now I can't smile
Lying down in the grass with the wind around us as we smile and talk
Listen to your Grandma sing those country songs
She'd tell us how the maple turns to fire every four years
We'd lay in the grass all summer just to watch the autumn come around
I can't smile
Now I can't smile
I live alone and you're so far away
I call you every year just around the holiday
I still see you in the night lying above me in the grass
I can't smile
Turn away from the pain you don't want
Turning down to avoid them when they call
I can't believe this letter that says you died
I think I'm gonna go back to the house in North Carolina and lay in the
backyard
Get drunk and let the leaves just bury me
Bury me
I can't smile
Now I can't smile
I don't know what's happening to me
I don't know what's happening to me
I can't smile

She walks alone everyday up and down the rainy streets in her own weird way,
All her friends they are blessed impressed intelligent freaks,
All of them are six feet tall all of them are hateful to me,

I'm not going out like that
I don't want to hear about the summer of love

I don't want to even let love rule
I want to break the back of brotherly love

I wanna take the past and throw it away
I want to burn the bridge between then and now

I want to punch marty balin in his eye

I'd wanna kick pigpen if he were alive
I don't want to go back in time
I want to kill jerry garcia!

Everclear | Kill The Sun | /e/everclear/kill+the+sun_20052078.html | It's good to have a window on the world
And to live deep in the heart of the beast in the sun
Night after night, I do the same damn thing
Do the weirdness dance, for those who can't
It's getting to the point where I can't take it anymore
Waking up at 3 pm
In a thrashed bedroom, sharp with needles and knives
Reach for the crutches that keep in motion
Vague memories that keep me alive
Like when she used to call me baby
All alone in our room, in the middle of the night
Kill the sun, yes, kill the sun
Kill the sun
Come on, come on, stop the light
Yes, I 've got sunshine
It's a suicide song in the back of my mind
Pure white evilwrapped around my eyes
Yeah I've got all the cities of light to live in
I don't even want no part
Hard is the fall
Cold is the bite
Kill the sun, yeah come on stop the light...
Kill the night

Everclear | Lame | /e/everclear/lame_20052079.html | Then they came on me
They dragged me from the bar
Still wet from sweat and beer
I bruise so prettily by men
Blinded by their fear, these men
Broke my back and made me lame
Then she said to me
"I'd give you everything to make it like before
To make you love me like you used to"
Make you love me more
She said to me
"Your life is large but your mind is lame"
I can't believe my eyes
When I see the truth
And all the things I've done
And every place, I'm queer
I never stay, I run
I know now why I live in shame
Lame
It's hard to sleep at night
I hardly ever sleep at night

Everclear | Learning How To Smile | /e/everclear/learning+how+to+smile_20052014.html | Five miles outside of Vegas when we broke down
Threw my keys inside that window
And we never looked back
We got all drunk and sloppy on a Greyhound bus
We passed out cold so all them losers
They were laughing at us
I will never let them break your heart
I will never let them break me
We got lost in Phoenix
Seemed like such a long time
Seven months of living sweaty
On those thin white lines
I did some time
For selling acid to the wrong guy
Life just keeps on getting smaller
And we never ask why
Why there is no perfect place
Yes I know this is true
I'm just learning how to smile
And that's not easy to do
I know there will come a day
When we can leave
And just go running away
(Oooh yeah)
We were broke outside of Philly
When the storms came
I was working in New Jersey
Hitching rides in the rain
You was happy talking dirty
At that phone sex place
Life just keeps on getting weirder for us
Everyday
You say there is no perfect place
I say I know this is true
We are just learning how to smile
And that's not easy to do
We both live for the day
When we can run away (hey...hey)
Ah baby we can leave
And run away (hey...hey)
We can leave this place
And run away (hey...hey)
We can leave it all behind
Just like we do everytime
Yes we both live for the day
When we can leave
And just go running away
No I will never let it break your heart
No I will never let it break me
Five miles outside of Vegas
Five years down the line
We got married in the desert
In the sunshine
I can handle all the hell
That happens everyday
When you smile and touch my face
You make it all go away
Yes I know there ain't no finish line
I know this never ends
We are learning how to fall
And climb back up again
I know there is nothing perfect
I know there is nothing new
We are just learning
How to live together
Me and you
You know I live for the day
When you say "baby let's just run away"
Ah baby we can leave
And run away (hey... hey)
Yes we can leave this place
And run away (hey...hey)
Baby we can leave
And run away (hey... hey)
Yes we can leave this place
And run away (hey... hey) [Repeat: x5]

Everclear | Like A California King | /e/everclear/like+a+california+king_20052002.html | I see you have made yourself a brand new life
Such a cool blue star with a bright new shine
I see you wear your checkered past just like a shining suit of gold
I know you think you look so special
I am told you have found yourself a brand new time
Watch the world stand still as the years go by
I know you think you are so new and different
But it makes no sense to me
There is nothing new about you
Just another self-made man
There is nothing new that I can see
Enjoy it while you can
I know you think you look so special
What makes you think you are so special?
What makes you think you are unique?
I see you smile and I get angry
As I watch you go colossal
Like a California king
All these Californians, coming up here
And changing everything
They're just a bunch of carpetbaggers
And I wish they'd all just go
Go!
I hear you gave the world a brand new voice
Such a happy melody with a new wave whine
Yeah I see you hide behind your own noise
I think I've seen enough
I will find you in the crowded room
I will knock you off your feet
I will burn you just like teenage love
I will eat you just like meat
I will break you into pieces
Hold you up for all the world to see
What makes you think you're better than me?
What makes you think you're better?
What makes you think you are complete?
What makes you think you are the only one immune to falling down
Why can't you see
I see you fall and I get happy
I will watch you burn like fire
I will watch you burn like a California king

I don't want to be friends
Just leave me alone, just leave me alone

And a big bad attitude
We are shaking shadows for that perfect dark room
Where we can do just what we want to do
There is a place
Where we can leave behind
All those simple minds
They would not like the way we live
When we are all alone
In this house that we call home
You will become my misery whip
(Yes, I said like a misery whip)
Walking hungry with a pocket full of promise
And a big black song in my head
Yes, I know the answers to my questions
They are purple black and blue
And they are waiting for me in my bed
There is a place where we can leave behind
All those simple minds
They would not like they way we live
When we are all alone
In this house that we call home
You will become my misery whip
(I will say it again, like a misery whip)
Stop!
I get no pleasure
When I'm going through the motions
Of my mediocre day to day
Whoa, I'm just an actor
Just like Robert fucking Redford
When I say those stupid words that they expect me to say
Yes we can leave behind
All those simple minds
They would not like the dirty things we do
Yeah
When we are all alone
In this house that we call home

Bad things that you don't want to know about
Tell you tomorrow what you did today

It's a real small town
She gets tired of all the stupid boys
She can't wait until they're done
She wants a man who can take his time
She wants someone who can make her come
Yeah, can you make me come
You always say you want a simple life
You and me both know that you are a liar
You always say you want a simple life
Hearing you talk just makes me tired
Swim in the heavy water
Buried in the sand
Happy hearts fall from my shaky hands
I can't hide my sexual life
He always says he wants to find a special one
But you watch his head go spinning around
He really wants anyone who'll give it up
He seems to forget he's in a small town
You always say you never fuck around
You say this town is just plain full of liars
Yeah you always say you never fuck around
Hey, hearing you talk just makes me tired
Swimming in the heavy water
Buried in the sand
Happy hearts fall from my stupid hands

Big hearted and tall enough to cover you

Splinter out of myself just like mercury
I think it's better now than how it used to be
You were lying in bed and I would levitate
I think it's better here than where we used to be
I wish I could go out into the Oregon sun to be alive in the day
I would smile at everyone
I remember you back in '83 you were dressing insane
You were my everything you were so different from all those other
girls
A blind Electra in drag so cool and casually lame
I think I'm better now than how I used to be
Always nervous and weird, scared most of the time
I think it's better now than how it used to be
Always up in the night afraid to live in the day
Afraid of being afraid
Afraid to live in the day
Afraid of being afraid
Now I sit alone when you're not around
I read aloud just to hear a friendly voice
I see you scary dolls they always look at me
From the corner of my eyes I see them shake their heads
You know I want to be the way you me to
Big hearted and tall enough to cover you
You know I want to be the way you me to
I wish I could go out just to be alive in the day

Everclear | Out Of My Depth | /e/everclear/out+of+my+depth_10111076.html | Out of my depth
Lost in the air
Falling faster
Like a broken elevator
Out of my depth
Lost in the dark
Waiting for that other shoe
To come down hard
I cannot communicate
Like I wish I could
I do not deal with my problems
Like I know I should
I am out of my depth
I am out of my league
Watching everything
Just slip away from me
Something bad is going to happen
I can feel it deep inside
There are shadows all around me
Like a bad moon on the rise
I am in over my head
I am in too deep here
Over my head
I guess I should keep my opinions to myself
I guess I am out of my depth
Out of my depth
Right from the start
I feel like I was born
With an invisible heart
Out of my depth
Seems like everyday
I can't find the words
To make the good things come my way
Yes, I feel like I am faking it
I feel like I am wrong
I feel like I'm a guest
Like I just do not belong
I am out of my depth
Every single day
I just cannot find the words
To make my monsters go away
Something bad is going to happen
I can feel it deep inside
There are shadows all around me
Like a bad moon on the rise
I am in too deep here
Over my head
Yes, I am in too deep here
Over my head
I should seek some professional help
Because I'm out of my depth
Yes, I am out of my depth
And I am slowly going out of my mind
Oh, go away
Make them go away
Someday I know
I will make them go away
Make them go away
Make them go away
Someday I know I will
Make my monsters go away
I am in over my head
I should seek some professional help
I should keep my opinions to myself
I guess I'm out of my depth
I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth
I am out of my
I am out of my depth
I am out of my depth

Hit you when you're safe and warm
Take it easy my star
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
You got those crazy blue eyes
Yeah you got those crazy blues
All those pretty smiles
I can see them laughing at you
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
I don't want to be your punching bag
Your complacent little princess
All tragic and sad
I'm not going to let you
Overwhelm me anymore
No, not anymore
Yeah you say you got this bad thing
Yeah you say you got it bad
You have broken every heart
Of every friend you've ever had
Someday the time is going to come
When all your friends just go away
I wonder why I stick around
Sometimes I wish you would leave
You'll say you'll love me forever
Then you spit on me
You time is going to come
I swear your time is going to come
I don't want to be your whipping boy
Your pathetic little loser
Someone you can ignore
I'm not going to let you overwhelm me
Anymore (aww)
I'm not going to let you hurt me anymore
I'm not going to let you hit me anymore
I'm not going to let you kick me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore (anymore)
It can come from out of nowhere
I don't want to be your simple saving grace
Just another little victim with a happy face
Oh, someday (someday)
Someday (someday)
Somebody's gonna come
I hope they do this to you
I'm not going to let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you hurt me anymore
I will not let you hit me anymore
I will not let you twist me anymore

Everclear | Pocahontas | /e/everclear/pocahontas_20052082.html | Aurora borealis
The icy sky at night
Our paddles break the water
In a long and hurried flight
From the white man and the fields of green
And the homeland we've never seen
They killed us in our tepee
They cut our women down
They might have left some babies
Cryin' on the ground
But the big guns and the wagon wheels come
Yes, and the night falls on the setting sun
They massacred the buffalo
Kitty corner from the bank
The taxis run across my feet
And my eyes have turned to blanks
In my little room at the top of the stairs
With an Indian rug and a pipe to share
I wish a was a trapper
I would give thousand pelts
To sleep with Pocahontas
And to find out how she felt
In the morning on the fields of green
In the homeland we've never seen
Yes and maybe Marlon Brando
Will be there by the fire
We'll sit and talk of Hollywood
And the good things there for hire
And the astro-dome and the first tepee
Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
Pocahontas

Everclear | Queen Of The Air | /e/everclear/queen+of+the+air_20052054.html | There is a dream I used to have
My dream swallowed me whole
There is a bridge where I hate to go
That is where I first saw her
High on the bridge I seen her red hair shining
There is a girl I never knew
She was my Aunt Virginia
They said that she, she just disappeared
They said I look just like her
High on the bridge I seen her dancing, waving to me there
She smiled and raised her head
Then she took to the air
There is a dream I can't escape
My memories come back to me
There is a hell I can't escape
My memories come back to me
I heard the truth about it
Pictures and headlines hidden away
I heard the truth about my real mom
Jumping from the bridge that day
Now I know why ever since I was 3 years old
Been having the same nightmare
Now I know the truth about Virginia
Why she took to the air

Everclear | Rocket For The Girl | /e/everclear/rocket+for+the+girl_21021076.html | I wrote a love song for the wrong girl
I guess I had to go through hell with her
Just to get to you
People talk bad about what they don't know
People talk bad when they can't see the truth
Like the way my heart goes crazy when
You walk in the room
You are the sad girl who lost her rocket
I had a dream about you about a year
Before we fell in love
You are still dragging the dream behind you
It is all that you can see
Even though it isn't real it looks so big
That you can't see me
You are my everything every day
You ruin me for anybody else
You make all the old things new
With the sound of your voice
And the easy way you move
You are my everything every day
You ruin me in all the right ways
When I break down
You make me feel strong
When I lose my music
You help me find a new song
When I get my magic in a bottle
I will spend it all to heal your world
I will build a rocket for the girl
Someday
So please stop pushing me away
You got to let go of the pain
Baby, you got to let go of the way things used to be
This life gets dark sometimes
Good things can be hard to see
Now I'm good for you
You are perfect for me
You are my everything everyday
You ruin me for anybody else
You make everything seem new
With the sound of your voice
And the easy way you move
You are my everything every day
You ruin me in all the right ways
When I break down
You make me feel strong
When I lose my music
You help me find a new song
When I get my magic in a bottle
I will spend it all to heal your world
I will build a rocket for the girl
(I will build a rocket for the girl)
I will build a rocket for the girl
(I will build a rocket for the girl)
I will build a rocket for the girl
Someday
Someday

Everclear | Santa Ana Wind | /e/everclear/santa+ana+wind_21021070.html | I feel safe inside the violence
Like I feel safe inside a roller coaster car
I feel safe in the hills
Up above it all sometimes
In the middle of the night, I can almost see the stars
Living in L.A. makes me think of you
I think about the good times doing all the bad things we used to do
Walked the streets and I could remember why I feel so bad
Walked the streets at night, it helps sometimes to remember why
Living in L.A. feels like home in a brand new way
I am like everyone I meet,
I have ghosts in my mind they will never go away
I walked the streets at night to understand why I feel so bad
I walked the streets at night questioning why I am the way I am
We come from the somewhere lost time out in the cold
We run for the light, it's the only way we know
Wanna find a better sun, I wanna find a better world
Wanna find a better heart, so I can find me a better girl
Wanna find a place living inside of the violence and the rage
Of the Santa Ana wind on sunny day.
Living in L.A. it's the west coast where I have my head in the sand
Can't explain this place, if you're not from here you will never understand
I walk the streets at night
I think about all the lies that I've had
I walk the streets at night
I think about why I want the love that I can't have
We come from the somewhere lost out in the cold
We fight for the light, it's the only way we know
Wanna find a better sun, I wanna find a better life
I wanna find a better world, I wanna find a better life
Wanna find a place living inside of the violence and the rage
Of the Santa Ana wind on a beautiful day.
Yeah, it is the simple things that I love about this place
Sunshine and Mexican booze on Christmas day
Oh, the noise from the city is the only way I can fall asleep
I think I needed leave to realize that this is all,
This is where I'm supposed to be
Oh oh ooh
We come from the south, we're lost out in the cold
We fight for the light, it's the only way we know
Wanna find a better sun, I wanna find a better shine
Wanna find a better world, wanna find me a better life
I wanna find a place to hide inside the violence and the rage
Of the Santa Ana wind on a winter's day
I can almost see the future
I can almost see the blue sky in the middle of the day
Even though our hell is coming down around me now
My Santa Ana wind made the clouds all blow away

Everclear | She's So High Above Me | /e/everclear/shes+so+high+above+me_20634665.html | She's so high above me
She's blood, flesh and bone
No tucks or silicone
She's touch, smell, sight, taste and sound
But somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothing's gonna happen
Chorus:
'Cause she's so high
High above me, she's so lovely
She's so high, like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, or Aphrodite
She's so high, high above me
First class and fancy free
She's high society
She's got the best of everything
What could a guy like me ever really offer?
She's perfect as she can be, why should I even bother?
[Chorus:]
She calls to speak to me
I freeze immediately
'Cause what she says sounds so unreal
'Cause somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothing's gonna happen
[Chorus:]

First class living in a goldfish bowl
Just when I think
I have driven my life
Where I wanted it to be
It takes me to a place
That I do not want to go
All I ever wanted to do
Was to learn how to break
This world in two
To teach it all the tricks
I wanted it to learn
To teach it how to do
What I want it to do
No one really understands
How simple and plain
And predictable I am
Because all I ever wanted to do
Was to play guitar
In a rock and roll band
Now I'm just losing my hair and I'm
Learning how to smile
Like I just don't care
No I just don't care
(I hear them under their breath)
No, I just don't care
(What they say when they think that I can't hear them)
I see them point and I see them stare
There goes that stupid guy
With the short blond hair
Yeah, I think this is getting to me
First class living in a goldfish bowl
Just when I think
I have driven my life
Where I wanted it to be
It takes me to a place
That I do not want to go

Was to play guitar
In a rock and roll band

And learning how to smile

And put out the light
We both know
If we talk anymore
We are going to end up
In a great big fight
You can have your way again
Yeah you believe
What you want to believe
You can walk all over me tomorrow
But tonight
Can't we just pretend to sleep
I think we're headed for a big fall
I think we're headed for a bad time
I'm going to go downstairs
And sit in that chair you like
I want to put a John Prine record on
Yes I need to slow down for awhile
Yeah I wish we had never bought
A king size bed
The only damn thing
That it's ever been good for
Is plenty room for the real good sex
I lay in bed in the dark
And all that I can see
Is the distance that grows between us
You seem so far from me
Yes I think we are headed for a real big fall
I think we are headed for a bad time
I'm going to go downstairs
I'm gong to sit by myself
All alone in the middle of the night
I'm going to put a John Prine record on

Smoke cigarettes
In that thrift store chair you like
I'm gonna put a John Prine record on

Everclear | Tiger In A Burning Tree | /e/everclear/tiger+in+a+burning+tree_21021067.html | A friend of mine woke me up to tell me about his dream
All the lights in the world went black
He felt like a tiger in a burning tree
It was like he was late for something
That he did not wanna see
His life looks better on paper
He lives like a tiger in a burning tree
Blow out the candles and make a wish
A woman from the city in the South
She lost her cow when the bottom fell out
She sold her life to the deep blue sea
She left a message for the world to see
She knows better what it's like to be
A tiger in a burning tree
Close your eyes and take a big deep breath
Blow out the candles and look away
I was a child that painted my toys angel blue and devil red
I broke him into pieces, set them on fire
Swept him under my bed
I never learned how to play nice with all the other kids
I never learned how to draw inside the lines and probably never will
Close your eyes and take a big deep breath
Imagine a world so much better than this
Now close your eyes and jump to a place you attain to be
And you can tell me what it feels like
To be a tiger in a burning tree

Everclear | Trust Fund | /e/everclear/trust+fund_20052115.html | I know a couple who are in love living in the best of times
A truer love you will never know
Right next to a pain they'll never realize
Sheltered from it in a loving glow
Young and happy and oh so politically correct
Just get it if you need it now
Just go buy it if you need it in your life
Don't you worry if it all runs out
Don't worry because it never will
I know a young girl living in the shadow of the kind of life that she
Could never make
She takes it all and gives it back in love to handsome artists in her
Native state
She is the angel of the loser and the disenchanted soul
Just get it if you need it now
Just buy it if it makes you happy
Don't you worry if it all runs out
Don't worry because it never will
Just get it if you need it now
I know a couple who are in love living in the best of times

I got busy in the bathroom at my high school prom.
Yeah, I used to be a dancer at the local strip club,
But now I know my right wing from my wrong.

I think they moved out to the suburbs,
And now they're blond, bland, middle-class Republican wives.
They've got blond, bland, middle-class Republican children,
And blond, bland, middle-class Republican lives.
Where do all the porn stars go when the lights go down?
I think I know where all the porn stars go?
They all become Volvo-driving soccer moms.

I don't want to be your stupid game
With my big black boots and an old suitcase
I do belive ill find myself a new place
I don't want to be tha bad guy

I just want to see some palm trees
I will try to shake away this disease
We can live beside the ocean
Linger far behind
Swim out past the breaker
Watch the world die x2
I am still dreaming of your face
Hungry and hollow from the pain you took away
I don't want to be your good time
I don't want to be your fallback crutch anymore
Walk right up you brand new day
Your same horizon in my own wearedway
I don't want to be tha bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to feel some downside
I just want to find some place to be alone
We can live beside the ocean
Linger far behind
Swim out past the breaker
Watch the world die x4
Oh!
Yeah, watch the world die
Yeah, yeah watch the world die
Wooah, yeah, watch the world die
Yeah watch the world die

Everclear | White Men In Black Suits | /e/everclear/white+men+in+black+suits_20052007.html | I am just a boy working in a record store
Yes I moved to San Francisco just to see what I could be
I am a loser geek, crazy with an evil streak
Yes I do believe there is a violent thing inside of me
She is just a girl, she is doing what she can
She dances topless
When she's not playing in her band
Such a pretty girl, happy in an ugly place
Watching all the pretty people do lots of ugly things
I think it's getting better for the two of us
Yes I think it's getting better almost everyday
I could give a damn for what those people say
All I want to do is lose myself in your room
All you want is just a slow fuck in the afternoon
I still see those scary guys when I am all alone at night
I kiss the ring you gave me then I swing with all my might
I think it's getting better for the two of us
I think it's getting easier for you and me to agree
That the white men in black suits
They are diminishing
Yes I think they are diminishing
Yes I think they diminish you and they diminish me
I think they are diminishing
You know sometimes I hear those people say
Yeah she takes a bus
Over to the north side of the city
She goes to work stripping for the rich white men
All the words they give her
Make her feel so soft and pretty
She wears them but they never seem to fit
Yes I think it's getting better for the two of us
Yes I think it's getting better in the worst way
I refuse to be afraid of almost everyone
Afraid of all the things they do or the words that they say
Let's live the way we want to live and hope they go away
I really hope they go away
I really hope they find a nice place
I hope they find it somewhere
I hope they go away
I can still hear all those people say

Everclear | Why I Don't Believe In God | /e/everclear/why+i+dont+believe+in+god_20052008.html | I heard the truth about you
And it really doesn't read at all
Like the whipping stick you raised me with
A scared woman in a private hell
Hushed voice like electric bell
Strange talk about Edgar Cayce and the long lame walk of the dark 70's
I heard the truth about you
Yeah you
Mama they woke me up
I was deep in an idiot sleep
I was just eight years old
Heard big words with a horrible sound
Why'd they have to call my school
Tell me my mother had a nervous breakdown
I wish I believed like you do
Yeah you
In the myth of a merciful god
In the myth of a heaven and hell
I hear the voices you hear sometimes
Sometimes it gets so much I feel like letting go
Sometimes it gets so goddamn hard I feel like letting it all go
Letting it all go
I ran away, went looking for you
Back to Culver City and the old neighborhood
Need to know if you were really gone
Need to know if you were gone for good
I ran through the projects at night
Hide in the dark from my friends in the light
Hide from my brother-in-law
Hide from the things he'd say
Said you weren't losing your mind
He said you just needed a rest
He said you'd be coming home soon
He said the doctors there would know what's best
Said that maybe I could go live with them for a while
I know the truth about you
I know the truth
Mama they woke me up
I was just eight years old
Sometimes it gets so hard I feel like letting it go
Letting it all go

I look crazy to the world
I have been to this place before
The right guy for the wrong girl
I wish that I could wake up from a dream that I just don't wanna believe
Down sitting here waiting for you
And I know you are walking away from me
I don't wanna say the words that everyone seems to know
I put you in that room with me
Wipe away where I go
I wish I could wake up from a dream that I just don't wanna believe
That I gave a beautiful freak like you power and control all over me
Please don't leave me
Please don't go
I don't wanna be alone
Wishing don't count for much
When that thing you want is gone
I refuse to believe in luck
Now when it comes to my luck
I wish I could wake up from a dream that I just don't wanna believe
That all the bad things I've done in my life are coming back to torture me
Please don't leave me
Baby please don't go
I don't wanna be alone
Please don't leave me
Baby please don't go
I don't know how to be alone
One two three
You walked into my life like you walked into a crowd
Obsessed on how you obsessed on me
I wish that I could see what you saw in me
All the things you said you liked so much
And other things you say you hate
Yeah and now all I wanna do is start over again
And all I wanna do is try to make you wanna stay
I'm sorry to sound so lame
But you left it way too late
You're telling what I need to say
That will make you wanna stay
Please don't leave me
Please don't go, please don't go
Please don't tell me that I stand up for you to go
Please don't leave me
Please don't go, please don't go
Please don't tell me that it's tearing for you to go
I don't know how to be alone
I dont' know how to be alone
I don't know how to be alone
Ooh, please don't be cruel
Please don't do to me the horrible things that I did to you

Everclear | Your Arizona Room | /e/everclear/your+arizona+room_20360523.html | Just another night in a bar somewhere
Just another blonde girl
Such a pretty blonde girl
I saw a light behind those cold dark eyes that you show to a cold dark world
Then something came over me
When I touched your face
It took me to a place that I've been afraid to go
Everytime we talk I find another piece of the puzzle of me
That I never really got to know
Sometimes it is so easy to believe that a broken thing can never be whole
Just another night in a hotel room
Just another bad dream
Can you believe? I had another bad dream
We were high on a hill above a big black cloud that turned into a swarm of
bees
Then something came over me
Then you held my hand and they faded into summertime when you smiled at me
Every time we talk, I find another piece of the puzzle of me
That I never really got to know
Sometimes it is so easy to believe that a broken heart can never be whole
Give your heart to me, I will give my heart to you
If you believe in me, I'll do anything you want me to do
We can stay in bed until the sun turns into the moon
I will hold you and smile safe in your Arizona room
Inside your Arizona room
There is nothing I'd rather do than be alone with you inside your Arizona room
There is nothing I'd rather do than waste away the day inside your Arizona
room
There is nothing I'd rather do
There is nothing I'd rather do than spend the day alone with you
If you give your heart to me, I will give my heart to you
If you believe in me, I'll do anything you want me to do
We can stay in bed until the sun turns into the moon
I will hold you and smile safe in your Arizona room
Inside your arizona room
There is nothing I'd rather do
Inside your arizona room
There is nothing I'd rather do
We can waste away the day
We can waste away the day
Inside your arizona room
There is nothing I'd rather do
There is nothing I'd rather do than spend the day alone with you

Everlast | 7 Years | /e/everlast/7+years_20052143.html | It's been seven years down the road
I got no more tears in me left to flow
When I did my baby wrong
She left me lonely for so long
Now I'm out here all alone
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home
[Chorus: x 2]
Lord, won't you please...bring my baby home
Lord won't you please bring my baby home
It go one for the treble
Two for the bass
Used to mess with this girl
Way back in the day
She was from the pj's
And she went both ways
Yeah, the girl was a freak
I used to call her monique
And before I even speak
About knockin' the boots
I say her name been changed to avoid lawsuits
So now we gettin' down to the nitty of the gritty
She brought her friend around
And damn she was pretty
Betty was twisted
She said her number was listed
They grabbed my love two fisted
Hugged it and kissed it
They say one in the hand
Is worth two in the bush
But when shove came to push
Yo, I had my own theories
World series of love
It's two on one
'Til I got caught with the smokin' gun
His wife came home
And she bursted in
Now I'm lookin' for my heart
Like I'm made from tin
The road that I travel
Ain't got yellow bricks
My old woman jinxed
That all men are pricks
And she flipped the script
She's puttin' lip to lip
And every time I think about it I just lose my grip
'cause I've been up
And I've been down
And I've been fast
And I've been slow
And I've been square
And I've been round
And I've been high
And I've been low
And I've been cool
And I've been calm
And I've been kind
And I've been crass
I held the whole world right in my palm
I tried to spread it around
But it sure went fast
[Chorus]
Seven years sure have flown by
I got no more tears and they are left to cry
When I did my sugar bad
I lost the best thing I ever had
And now I'm out here on my own
Lord, won't you please bring my baby home
[Chorus: x 2]
Bring my baby home...

pills.
I know I'm kinda far, cause I'm my father's son and I got a hole in my heart I
cant fill
Turn off the parking light, down by the rivers end.
This is my darkest night girl you're swimming in my head

It happens all the time, I blow it every time
People change with time
Call me anytime girl
I miss you oh so often
Whats been said is done
Its my only option girl ill be anyone for you.
Anyone.
[Verse 2]
Out on the interstate, I play my radio
And I confess to all my sins
Been driving seven hours, still got 3 to go
Where it always ends, the road begins
You've got your broken wings
I've got mine sewn apart
Girl all these fucked up things
They keep us torn apart
[Chorus 2]
It happens all the time
I blow it every time
People change with time
Call me anytime you like
I miss you oh so often
Whats been said is done
Its my only option
Ill kill anyone for you.
Anyone
Anywhere
Anytime
For you

My soul is high, my mind is free
Met a shorty with some back call her Destiny

Pretty lady, won't you take me home, tonight
My arms are heavy, my body's tense
Got the hot's for this honey named Confidence

Never speaks a word in my defense, just forget about me
My spirit's weak, my lust will thrive
Got a thing for this bitch said her name's a lie

Open up your eyes, can't you see me
What the fuck is this, madness
Pick up my bones, erase my name from off the tombstones
Alive and kickin', breathin' the air
Call out my name punk and I'll be there
No question, my suggestion to the action
Caught smack dab in the middle of the blastin'
Messin' with me, you're messin' with the best
Blough, you're takin' two shots to the chest
Chorus
'Cause I'm back from the dead
Everlast's comin' back from the dead (back from the dead)
You know I'm back from the dead
And I'll put a friggin' hole in your head
Back from the dead
Back from the dead
You can't disrespect it, I'm the resurrected
Back from the dead, just to mess with your head
I'll stress what I said, but I won't repeat it
If you've got a cold, starve it
If you've got a fever, feed it
And if you can't feed it, then why not blow
You might be positive and not even know
I rock the hardcore from the floor to the ceilin'
I give sexual healin', I'll get your girlie squealin'
Like a pig, my grave's somethin' you can never dig
I'll rock a mausoleum, backyard or colosseum
Chorus ii

Everlast's comin' back from the dead (back from the dead)
You know I'm back from the dead
House of Pain's in effect, 'nuff said
Skip the autopsy, 'cause I never O. D. 'd
I only puff boom kid I never get skeemed
I don't sniff or shoot up, rip I'll stick my boot up
Your ass quick fast Everlast don't jive
Just like Pearl Jam, I'm still alive
Spreadin' like tumors, gossip and lies
Exaggerated reports of my demise, and if you believed'em
Well then you got gassed, the media deceived'em
Just like in the past
Chorus
Like Steven Segal I'm hard to kill
And like G. G. Allen I'm crazy ill
I'll beat ya down with my mic
Kick your ass with my Nike
Bust ya in the eye if ya tell another lie
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Thinkin' I'm dead you must be smokin' dust
Come see me bust in the flesh it's a must
Chorus ii
Back from the dead

Just like black coffee
She told me that she'd always be thinkin' of me
She said she wanted me to know that she really did love me
She said she never put no one else above me
Except her monkey, she's like a junkie, just like a junkie,
Just like a junkie
It was April 25th, it's up around 80
Found a spot out in the park where the grass is shady
She said her mom's from Jamaica, her father's from Haiti
She's such a pretty lady, she's such a lady
She smelled like flowers, she tastes like toffee
She kissed me slowly, she held me softly
Got too close and she backed up off me
She left me stoned cold sober, just like black coffee
Just like black coffee, just like black coffee
Just like black coffee

Everlast | Blinded By The Sun | /e/everlast/blinded+by+the+sun_10111391.html | I met a woman in West Virginia
She said her name was Alabama
She from a little town outside Savannah
Where everybody talk that country grammar
She said she killed a man down in Atlanta
He beat her and he drank till he couldn't stand up
He told her that he loved her but he couldn't stand her
She caught him in his sleep, hit him with a hammger
Then she sold her car and she bought a gun
Johnny Law got her on the run
Another broken bottle and the damage done
We've all been blinded by the sun, blinded by the sun
Her breathe was sweet, her eyes were pretty
She said her zodiac sign was Cancer
She was on her way to New York City
Trying to get a job there as a dancer
Then she asked if she could ride home with me
Now I'm still thinking on the answer
She pulled on love, she won't take pity
She'll break your heart if you give her the chance to
This time I've got an Uzi and it weights a ton
Johnny Law got her on the run
Another broken bottle and the damage done
We've all been blinded by the sun, blinded by the sun
Lord have mercy on me for all the things I've done
I lost my mind, my eyes were blinded by the sun
Don't forsake me Lord, I'm not the only one
I lost my mind, my eyes were blinded by the sun
Blinded by the sun
This time I've got an Uzi and it weights a ton
Johnny Law got her on the run
Another broken bottle and the damage done
We've all been blinded by the sun, blinded by the sun

Everlast | Broken | /e/everlast/broken_10111394.html | You're the air that I breathe, you're the sun when it breaks through the
clouds
You're all that I need, but I know that you're having some doubts
I'm down on my knees, I'm praying you'll stake this out
I'm begging you please girl, I'm sorry I let you down
I'm broken like a promise, I'm shattered like a dream
I'm broken with all my pieces scattered round for you to see
I'm broken like a record, I sing the same old song
I'm broken like the heart of a man that's run away from love too long
Girl what about you, what about you girl
It's so hard to speak, I can barely look you in the eye
It's so hard to breathe, but I know I ain't afraid to die
Your breath is so sweet, your kisses could get me high
My heart is so weak, but your loving could get me by
I'm broken like a promise, I'm shattered like a dream
I'm broken with all my pieces scattered round for you to see
I'm broken like a record, I sing the same old song
I'm broken like the heart of a man that's run away from love too long
Girl what about you, what about you girl
I'm broken like a promise, I'm shattered like a dream
I'm broken with all my pieces scattered round for you to see

I'm broken like the heart of a man that's run away from love too long
Girl what about you, what about you girl
Girl what about you, what about you girl, girl what about you

Everlast | Change Is Gonna Come | /e/everlast/change+is+gonna+come_20986265.html | I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me, "Don't hang around"
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
Then I go to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help me please"
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees
Oh there been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Everlast | Die In Yer Arms | /e/everlast/die+in+yer+arms_20833980.html | [Chorus:]
Girl I wanna die in your arms tonight
I really don't care about the wrong or right
The fruit is forbidden but it's sweet and ripe
I think I'm gonna pick me some and take me a bite
Baby girl looks so good, she walk so mean,
Got a vicious little sway, I think she's semi-obscene
She'll pick your bones clean, oh my god she's so fine
She's sweeter than the dew out on the grapes on the vine
I'm gonna pick her gonna squeeze her, I'm gonna make me some wine
I'm a drinker till I'm a crazy, I'ma drink till I'm blind
I'm gonna touch her so good, I'm gonna treat her so fine,
I'm gonna make love to her soul, I'm gonna fuck all with her mind
Girl I wanna die in your arms tonight
I really don't care about the wrong or right
The fruit is forbidden but it's sweet and ripe
I think I'm gonna pick me some and take me a bite
Baby girl acts so proper, like daddy's little daughter
A wolf in sheep's clothing leading lambs down to the slaughter
She's looking so young, she's smelling so pretty
She's a junkie on a binge, and her drug is the city
She's a vicious little bitty, attitude is shitty
If I get my way she's probably gonna come home with me
Talk ain't good for nothing
Eyes are made for crying
Bombs are made for dropping
Your arms ain't made for dying
[Chorus: Repeat 3X]

Everlast | Friend | /e/everlast/friend_20833943.html | There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told it's incurable
There's a darkness in my heart
Slowly tearin' me apart, it's unbearable
Drop of blood, a lake of tears
And baby after all these years you're still beautiful
And I've been loved and I've been used
Cut wide open, scarred and bruised
I'm unbreakable
Flesh it heals I know
Hearts they never mend
Lover's come and go girl right now I need a friend
Walk for miles, talk for days
And I keep trying to change my ways
It's so difficult
You kick and scream
You curse and yell
Tell me I should go to hell
It's so typical
Touch my heart, feel my pain
Let me know I'm not insane
You're so merciful
Break your heart
I cheat, I lie
And honestly I don't know why I'm so pitiful
Flesh it heals I know
Hearts they never mend
Lover's come and go girl right now I need a friend...yeah
There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told it's incurable
There's darkness in my heart, that's slowly tearin' me apart
It's unbearable...yeah
Flesh it heals I know
Hearts they never mend
Lovers come and go girl right now I need a friend...yeah
Right now I need a friend
There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told it's incurable

Everlast | Funky Beat | /e/everlast/funky+beat_20052146.html | Check, uh huh
Check check y'all
Yo Whitey Ford's the name
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Couldn't get more bent when it's time to represent
I control it like rent in a slum tenement
Life's hard like some men in the concrete jungle
I don't smoke jumbo so what you knocking for
There's locks on my door we rock from the floor
To the ceiling ain't no drug dealing
Ain't no gat peeling, you can't fight this feeling
Well, My style's golden, hot like molten rock
Niggers come bold but leave here holding jock
High roll patrol, roll through the set on fifth
Arm's solo, sipping ?molo with a chick
Niggers take the penitentiary chances at the dances
Letting off shots, lit off the lanterns
Mad cause a nigga can't test with no access
To 'phatness' like this
From one story the cowboy was founded
I'm surrounded by Casual, and Whitey Ford, the whole world and your girl
From the Bay to LA to my blue end while
I ain't trying to die, I'm trying to live while I cool out
And pick up my daughter when the bell says the school out
Who the hell brought tools in this peaceful event
Now I can love you, front you, or we could hunt you
You played too close, take a hit of this dose
A yes, yes, y'all
A freak, freak, yo
So fresh y'all
A to the beat y'all
A yes, yes, y'all
We don't stop, dog
Everlast: We keep it rocking till the panties drop, yo
Uh-huh, ha, I see the rappers being ruined by you and whoever is doing that
Crap,
They got me booin', in fact, I'm gettin' to 'em
May a electrical, poetical surge give me the urge
To, consume, the tomb and submerge
The depths of adverbs, ?
Analytical, you pitiful trick
I'm the pinnacle and the prodigal, rhyme style's
Hip nautical, fuck the article, the artist is hardest to harvest the
Hard shit
I slave till all my work is done
I'm cashing in, stack up my money for a grand set
I like them all house parties rocking, plus I'm up in your ?
Bitch, turn your head and keep your eyes where they supposed to be
Supposedly, I was seen with something lean, huh
Brown skin, I keep it bouncing
I say lounging, on the side with red wine
I know that shit on my floor ain't swine
Now back it up, stack it up and hit me one more time
It might be your phone call, but check it, it's my dime
And I know she's fine but get off my line
Or I'll break that spine and then maybe your face
You all up in my space like with Puffy and Mase
But that's just not the case 'cause I'm setting the pace
While you following and swallowing, savoring the flavor
In your 40 open now, quick suckin' my style
[Chorus]
Rock on, to the break of dawn
Just freak it, ah yeah baby
Rock on, to the break of dawn
Just freak it, ah yeah baby
[Repeat: x2]
Cause it's the funky beat
Cause it's the funky beat
Cause it's the funk, the funk, the funk, funky beat (beat)
I'll leave a piece of my style flying high up in the air
And you'll say to yourself, 'damn I'm glad I was there'
This is as rare as me fricking share
You people stare
But behind closed doors you will take it there
Yeah, I be the extraordinary
Judge from Bay fare to Albee Square
Tell me where the party at, I'll be there
Let her hit the coney at, show her where to rock the pony at
I be the man with the large amounts of sapphire fare
I'm about to cut loose my dog so you all best beware
You can dance with flare and get out of your chair
We be smarter than your average boo boo bear
[Chorus]
[Repeat: x4]
Cause it's the funky beat
Cause it's the funky beat
Cause it's the funk, the funk, the funk, funky beat (beat)

Everlast | Get Down | /e/everlast/get+down_20052147.html | I see everybody rockin' the same old style
And everyone's sportin' the same profile
And all of y'all wearin' the same name brands
I hear everybody jackin' these played out jams
I won't reach for no gun, punk, I use my hands
I rock mikes and roll bikes, I cross foreign lands
I made my bones out in zones where twilight be
And every time I touch the mike it's Fright Night Part Three
For every emcee that wannaa test and try
In your custom made wears thinkin' you too fly
Make it up in gold chains what you're lackin' for brains
It's time to call your ma, duke, scoop up your remains
And finally lay to rest all the shit you stressed
Of boastin' and braggin' about the toes you taggin'
I'm knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door
While every rapper that's simmed is pimped like a whore
You see the talk is eighteen, three quarters past four
When your doctor slaps my ass, hear the lion roar
The record sales soared and the world got toured
You say what happened to my band, I say I just got bored
Now they call me Whitey Ford, and I praise the Lord
Find me breakin' up your crews, catch me singin' the blues
Strummin' and pickin' like I'm BB King
It's Abdul Rakim, now watch me do my thing
CHORUS
Down, down, you go
Down, down, so low
Down, down, till you hit the floor
Keep fallin' down, till you can't get down no more
You go point blank range with the scope he's knockin'
The Psycho might change but there ain't no stoppin'
The mmon's on the rise when the sun start droppin'
And y'all need to quit the bullshit that you be poppin'
'Cause I've been hip hoppin' since BDP
(???), it's Abdul Rakim
And when referring to me you must respect the name
Make a quick double take and double check your game
'Cause you about to get dissed, I'm checkin' my list
When I check it over twice it's like rollin' dice
I hit four, five, six, I'm all up in your mix
I rock good from Hollywood to the city of bricks
And all these fake cats scream they're keepin' it real
While you're makin' your deal we'll be breakin' the seal
You be breakin' your vows like people worshippin' cows
And then I hit ya with the who's, what's, where's and how's
Like Vinny Barbarino, Matt Pachino
I'm with my man Rino with the Brooklyn Lordz
Crashin' the boards with my soul in a hole
I take it back to the future from the days of old
I'm too cold to hold, too hot not to burn ya
Don't stick your nose in businessthat don't concern ya
Might have to trip and flip like I've Turner
You too old for schoolin', boy, when I'm gonna learn ya
CHORUS

Everlast | God Wanna | /e/everlast/god+wanna_20973297.html | I said God want to fill my heart, the devil want to wear my skin
Time to get the party started, everybody jump in, you got it
God want to fill my heart, the devil want to wear my skin
Time to get the party started, everybody jump in, you got it
Come on, bounce, rock, skate
Tune in, drop out, de-motivate
Renegotiate for the proper rate
Somethin' to push weight, have to go up state
And fuckin' jailbait is statutory rape
And don't you never get your ass caught on tape
This ain't New York, there ain't no escape
And Superman's just another pimp in a cape
And even if both your eyes come up snake
It's time to get wise, rise and cut the cake
It don't take much for the Earth to quake
So watch what you clutch when you on the tape
I'm tryna tell you
God want to fill my heart, the devil want to wear my skin
Time to get the party started, everybody jump in, you got it
God want to fill my heart, the devil want to wear my skin
Time to get the party started, everybody jump in, you got it
I don't know where I'm going, I hardly know where I've been
The only thing I know for sure, the party's bout to begin, you got it
Thousand angels dancing, all on the head of a pin
Some people live in righteousness, and some people live in sin, you got it
God want to fill my heart, the devil want to wear my skin
Time to get the party started, everybody jump in, you got it
God want to fill my heart, the devil want to wear my skin
Time to get the party started, everybody jump in, you got it
Everybody jump in Lord, everybody jump in
Everybody jump in Lord, everybody jump in, you got it
Yo I'm a pimp, I'm a thief, I'm a killer, I'm a dealer
I'm a Holy man preacher, I'm a teacher, I'm a healer
I'm a mover, I'm a shaker, I'm a giver, I'm a taker
I'm a long time bonafide big money maker
I'm a winner, I'm a loser, I'm a begger, I'm a choser
I'm a thug, I'm a poser, I'm a chronic drug user
I've been rapping, I've been mixing, I'm fact and then I'm fiction
I'm a walkin' talkin' livin' breathin' contradiction
I'm working for my God but I'm playing with the devil
Don't act like you can see me cause I'm on another level
I'm a mic burner, not a trick turner
I'll act like Ike Turner, then I'll treat you like Tina
God want to fill my heart, the devil want to wear my skin
Time to get the party started, everybody jump in, you got it
God want to fill my heart, the devil want to take my soul
Gotti got a broken heart, party's gotten out of control, you got it
The party's gotten out of control, y'all
The party's gotten out of control
The party's gotten out of control, y'all
The party's gotten out of control, you got it

Never put no one else above her no
She put it on me like no other did before
Now she telling me that she wants to go
She said she got dreams and she want back flights
She said that she can act and she wants to sign
Wants to build herself a rep make herself a name
I tell you girl game recognizes game
And I'll be good when you're gone for ever
And I'll be fine when you're gone for good
And I'll be good when you're gone for ever
And I'll be fine when you're gone for good
For good
Gone for good

Girl I don't even know how to reach you now
You say you wanna love but wouldn't speak no vow
Girl you ain't the one that can break me down
Take all of my love and the you spread it around
Girl I don't even know how to greet you now
I hope maybe you choke I hope maybe you drown
I said "Hey Joe, I heard you shot your lady down"
And I'll be good when you're gone for ever

Everlast | Graves To Dig | /e/everlast/graves+to+dig_20052122.html |
They go one for the Prophet, two for Islam
Three for the Khutba from the Imam
Four for the mother that birthed my frame
Five for the father 'cause he taught me game
Been 'round the world, songs are all the same
Sometimes when I'm asleep I still call your name
Back when I was young I used to dream of fame
Now they all point they fingers saying who's to blame
Mothers put their girls into pigtail curls
Fathers teach their sons how to shoot their guns
They say, "Boy don't never cry control your emotions
Just take it like a man, make your stand"
They say, "Sex and violence go hand in hand"
For every man blessed there got to be ten damned
Expand through the depths of space and time
Standing three eyes blind on the firing line
Word to my man divine, come too far
Singing la ilaha il allah
Twelve rakahs short on my full day's prayer
Just hoping that the lord got some mercy to spare
They go one for the ummah, two for the deen
Three for the angels, four for the alamin
Somewhere between totally obscene
And perfectly clean, got a Babylon feeling'
Wounds that need healing', truth need revealing'
Hands need washing' from all the dirty dealing'
From the floor to the ceiling', from the stage to the door
From the kings and the queens and the slaves and the whores
For every lost cause where the martyrs are found
That funky little sound, that make you want to get down
Somebody told me once, love makes the world go round
Now kids they carry pistols out on the playground
That profound, gone too far.
Praying to the light from a burned out star
Put your lights on, put down your crosses
It's time to tally up your wins and your losses
They go one for Scott La Rock
Two for Pac and B.I.G.
And three for all the mothers who got graves to dig
For all the mothers who got graves to dig
For all the mothers who got graves to dig

Everlast | Hot To Death | /e/everlast/hot+to+death_20052149.html | We're gonna be breakin' it down (Yeah!)
You gotta know the feel
You gotta know the life
You know what I'm sayin' (Hey!)
I said what's goin' wrong
You know it just ain't right
Tell me who be loud
When the spark ignite
Now from the break daylight
To the fall of the sun
You gotta pick your fight
It's time to choose your gun
Chorus:
Front to back
Right to left
Keep it live all night
Make it hot to death
Get your heart pumpin' like some crystal meth
Keep it live all night
Make it hot to death
Well...
Hey...
Tell me who's your God
Does he make a lotta dough
I'm gonna take you higher
Or to the fire below
Chorus
Guns to roses
Abraham to Moses
Daylight exposes what the night conceals
Let's break these seals
And get this thing started
Some be out classed
Some be out smarted
Some be over bound by the blindin' rays
I hear the whisper in the night
Get trapped in the maze
See back in the days
When I was juvenile
I dreamed of rockin' on the mic
In a brand new style
Now I'm shakin' these bones
Tryin' to get these shoes
Outbidded major crews
I'm paid crazy dues
Now I'm speakin' on you
They just slept on me
And rumors start spreadin'
Just like a disease
I'll have you down on your knees
Below the spot ground zero
Turn brown and burn down Rome just like Nero
A hero ain't nothing but a
Don't make me say it again
Legend
Don't make me say it

That's what I'm sayin (2x)

Everlast | I Can't Move | /e/everlast/i+cant+move_20052123.html | Watching the sun shine, peaking over the sky line
Thinking I gotta get mine, gotta try at least one time
Want to get near it, close enough to fear it, close enough to hear it
Close enough to say that I looked it in the eye, then I turned away
Chorus
And I'm not scared, but I can't move I'm not scared, but I can't move
Hangin' out on a weeknight, looking out on the street light
Getting into some fistfight, trying to cling to my birthright
Want to get near her, close enough to smell her,
Close enough to tell her
All the things that I want to say, then I looked her in the eye,
Made her run away
Chorus
And I don't care, but I can't move I don't care, but I can't move
Laying up at the Soho, looking out of my window
Pulling back on some indo, watch the breeze as the wind blows
Want to get near it, close enough to hear it, close enough to fear it
Close enough to say that I looked it in the eye, then it turned away
Chorus
And I'm not scared, but I can't move I'm not scared, but I can't move

Everlast | I Get By | /e/everlast/i+get+by_20986253.html | Government man keep calling my house
Talking 'bout I owe, harassing my spouse
Gotta park my truck on another block
'Cause the sub-prime loan got my ass in hock
Gotta couple good friends with helping hands
I need a brand new job with a health care plan
They closed the plant, they stole my job
And told me crime don't pay unless you ask the mob
So I smoke a little grass, drink a little wine
Watch a little tube, try to kill a little time
And every single day I fall a little more behind
But I'm paying it no mind, it'll all be fine
I get by (got it good, got it good)
I barely get by (got it good, got it good)
I barely get by
I laugh not to cry
I stay a little high
I ain't gonna lie
I barely get by
I laugh not to cry
I stay a little high
I ain't gonna lie (got it good)
Party people in the place to be
Put your hands in the sky if you barely getting by
It's on and on till the brake of dawn
Got to keep the rent paid and the power on
Yes yes y'all and it never stops
I don't trust the government, I don't trust no cops
We dip and we dive and we socialize
We struggle and we strive just to stay alive
I get by (got it good, got it good)
I barely get by (got it good, got it good)
When I finally get home I can't relax
'Cause I've been over worked and I've been over taxed
My bank accounts empty, all my cards are maxed
And I ain't looking for no pity, I'm just stating the facts
I voted for some change and it's kinda strange
Now it's all I got in my pocket
I bought a few LED's, now I'm growing some trees
And it's a sweet fucking hustle don't knock it
I told y'all before I would break the law
To put some food in my baby girl's belly
'Cause the senator man took a bribe in hand
And went and shipped my job to New Delhi
I get by (got it good, got it good)
I barely get by (got it good, got it good)
I barely get by
I laugh not to cry
I stay a little high
I ain't gonna lie
I barely get by
I laugh not to cry
I stay a little high
I ain't gonna lie (got it good)
Party people in the place to be
Put your hands in the sky if you barely getting by
It's on and on till the brake of dawn
Got to keep the rent paid and the power on
Yes yes y'all and it never stops
I don't trust the government
I don't trust no cops
I dip and I dive and I socialize
I struggle and I strive just to stay alive
I get by (got it good, got it good)
I barely get by (got it good, got it good)
I barely get by
I laugh not to cry
I stay a little high
I ain't gonna lie
I barely get by
I laugh not to cry
I stay a little high
I ain't gonna lie (got it good)

Get up everybody and listen to this rhyme
My name is Everlast and yo, I'm always on time
I got what it takes to make this groove complete
And when my DJ is cuttin, he's never missin a beat
I'm down with the Syndicate and they're down with me
I'm also down with Divine, Bilal and Quincy D.
Tairrie B., DJ Lethal and my brother cool Nick
Kid Jazz, Scratch, Bango and Cutmaster Quick
I've worked hard and long to master this trade
And to quote my other song yo, I'm just out to get paid
So sleep on me now for my time will come
Everlast lasts forever, that's why I'm number one
I got the knack
(You got it)
(You know I feel alright)
I got the knack
(You got it)
(You know I feel alright)
I got the knack

Everlast is in effect
Gettin big respect
Then I collect big checks
1's, 5's, 10's, 20's
100 g's and I'm pullin honeys
Left and right, day and night
You gotta see it to believe it, it's quite a sight
They're all on my tip to get a sip
Of this poetical performer that's fully equipped
But I'm out to get paid, not to get laid
All across the country my records gettin played
On radio stations, clubs and on tours
And after every show I make three encores
Sleep on me now for my time will come
Everlast last forever, that's why I'm number one
I got the knack
(You got it)
(You know I feel alright)

(Alright)
(Check this out)
Step up, place your bet and I'll serve you fortune
But first I must issue just one word of caution
Dope lyric presentations are my sole notoriety
Everlast is on the rise movin through society
My voice is moist recitin choice vocals
Respected worldwide and feared by locals
Poppin junk out your punk mouth makin bets
It's too late for regrets, it's time to pay your debts
E-v-e-are-l-a-s-t is the name that I bear
A poetic demi-god with skin that's fair
So sleep on me now for my time will come
Everlast lasts forever, that's why I'm number one

(You know I feel alright)
I got the knack

(You know I feel alright)
I got the knack

(You know I feel alright)

(You got it)
(You know I feel alright)
Now there's too many people in this world tryin to play me
Like I'm some kind of sucker constantly they disobey me
Tellin me what's sellin, what kinda records get charted
Sound like him, sound like her - but they all sound retarded
Takin very little time to write down a rhyme
It's confusing to see so many people so blind
Some think that it's a sell-out rhymin to this beat
But Everlast can take any groove and make it sound complete
I got the knack

Everlast | Jump Around | /e/everlast/jump+around_20224955.html | Pack it up, pack it in
Let me begin, I came to win
Battle me that's a sin
I won't tear the sack up, punk you'd better back up
Try and play the role and the whole crew will act up
Get up, stand up, come on throw your hands up
If you've got the feeling jump up touch the ceiling
Muggs is a funk fest, someone's talking junk
Yo, I'll bust 'em in the eye, and then I'll take the punks ho
Feel it, funk it, amps in the trunk y'all
And I got more rhymes than there's cops that are Dunkin' Donuts shop
Sure 'nuff I got props from the kids on the Hill plus my mom and my pops
[Chorus]
I came to get down, I came to get down
So get out your seats and jump around
Jump around

Jump up, jump up and get down

I'll serve your ass like John MacEnroe
If your girl steps up, I'm smackin' the ho
Word to your moms I came to drop bombs
I got more rhymes than the bible's got psalms
And just like the Prodigal Son I've returned
Anyone stepping to me you'll get burned
'Cause I got lyrics and you ain't got none
So if you come to battle bring a shotgun (shotgun)
But if you do you're a fool 'cause I duel to the death
Try and step to me you'll take your last breath
I gots the skill, come get your bill
'Cause when I shoot to give, I shoot to kill
[Chorus]
I'm the cream of the crop, I rise to the top
I never eat a pig 'cause a pig is a cop
Or better yet a Terminator, like Arnold Schwarzenegger
Try and play me out like as if my name was Sega
But I ain't goin' out like no punk bitch
Get used to one style and you know I might switch
It up up and around, then buck buck you down
Put out your head then you wake up in the Dawn of the Dead
I'm comin' to get ya, I'm comin' to get ya
Spittin' out lyrics homie I want ya
[Chorus]
[Repeat: x33]

Everlast | Lonely Road | /e/everlast/lonely+road_20241536.html | Too much time thinking about all of my mistakes
My heart, my mind, my soul, my body ache
A hunger for the loving arms of your embrace
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong girl, I carry the load
All the grinding time, I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
Too much time thinking about everything that went wrong
I cry my eyes out every time I hear your song
I hope this path brings me back where I belong
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong girl, I carry the load
All the grinding time, I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
Too much pride for me to up and take the blame
Deep inside, girl it's killing me with pain
Every night I sleep, I call your name
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong girl, I carry the load
All the grinding time, I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road
My back is strong girl, I carry the load
All the grinding time, I pay the debt that's owed
I walk along the lonely road
I walk along the lonely road, I walk along the lonely road

Everlast | Long Time | /e/everlast/long+time_20986256.html | She was a hot blooded women, he never saw it comin'
She hit him from the side that's blind
She never gave a warning, he woke up in the mornin'
Layin' there next to his pride
He got a little crazy when she had a little baby
'Cause it filled him with a fatherly pride
But a couple years later when their love started fadin'
He hurt so bad he nearly died
[Chorus]
It's been a long time, since I was faithful
It's been a long time, since I was grateful
It's been a long time, since I could look you in the eye
It's been a long time, since I was grateful
She's a mother with a daughter, sittin' by the water
'Cause it's better for her baby to breathe
She got a man that's in prison cause he didn't wanna listen
Now he's sittin' waitin' on a reprieve
And she loves her lil' baby but she get a lil' crazy
'Cause it's harder than she ever conceived
He left her on her own, but she's doin' it alone
Cause she loves him like he wouldn't believe
[Chorus]
He's a friend and a lover, husband and a brother
He's always been a prodigal son
He gets a lot of drama when he go to see his momma
'Cause he curses like a son of a gun
He's beggin' to his lady, let him see his baby
He swears that she's the only one
He's got a heart full of sorrow, he's livin for tomorrow
And he's sorry for the damage he's done
[Chorus x2]

Everlast | Naked | /e/everlast/naked_20833976.html | Blue sky, devil eye
Cyanide, suicide
Double down, let it ride
Lose your money
Bruise your pride
Easy come, easy went
Ghetto slums tenements
Things look real, Old Testament
Blame it all on the president
[Chorus:]
The emperor's got brand new clothes
And everybody but him knows he's naked
But you don't say a word
The emperor's got brand new jewels
Wake up soon you silly fools
He's naked
But you don't say a word
The rich they get richer
The poor they get poorer
While liberty stands naked screaming in horror
The emperor raped her but we just ignore her
The rich they get richer
The poor they get poorer
Euthanize, youth will rise
Scrutinize, truth from lies
Time to revolutionize
Organize, weaponize
Easy come, easy go
Think I'm movin' just a little bit too slow
Got front row tickets to the big freak show
Wait for the whole freakin' thing to blow
[Chorus:]
Homicide, genocide
Victimize, paralyze
Empathize and analyze
Compromise and vandalize
Easy come, hard to take
Wide awake the original fake
Find the heart, drive the stake
Wait for the whole freakin' thing to break
[Chorus:]

Everlast | One And The Same | /e/everlast/one+the+same_20052126.html | One and the same, one and the same
I wish I could see beyond the filthy blue horizon, see what lies ahead of me
Perhaps I'd see the path of my own destruction
And avoid my destiny, she said Heaven and Hell is one and the same boy
She told me Heaven and Hell, boy, was one and the same
We all meet somewhere in the middle
She told me Heaven and Hell, boy, is one and the same
I said it can't be true
I wish I could touch you in some totally new fashion
Who are you girl, I'm a man, now I can't guarantee your complete satisfaction
So I'm gonna do you the very best way I can
She said Heaven and Hell is one and the same, boy
She told me Heaven and Hell, boy, is one and the same
We all meet somewhere in the middle
She told me Heaven and Hell, boy, is one and the same
I said it can't be true
Wish I could find some time to stop and smell the roses
My landlord won't let me be, my head is full of paranoia
New roses, tryin' to consume my identity
She said heaven and hell is one and the same, boy
She told me heaven and hell, boy, is one and the same
We all meet somewhere in the middle, yes we do
She told me heaven and hell, boy, is one and the same
I said it can't be true, it just can't be true
Children grow and women produce and men go work and some go stealin' (repeat
X1)
Heaven and Hell (children grow and women produce), here on Earth (and men go
work and some go stealin') X7

Everlast | Only Love Can Break Your Heart | /e/everlast/only+love+can+break+your+heart_20052141.html | When you were young and on your own
How did it feel to be alone
I was always thinking of games that I was playing
Trying to make the best of my time
[Chorus:]
But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart
I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see if he can come out
Try to lose the down that he's found
I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart

Everlast | Pain | /e/everlast/pain_10111410.html | Somewhere between the lies and truths, borderlines get shady
Somewhere between the yes's and no's you can find the maybe
Somewhere between the highs and lows you can spot the middle
Somewhere betweens the questions and clues you can solve the riddle
Somewhere along the road you might need a place to stay
Somewhere along the line you're gonna have to pass away
And somewhere in space you still remind me of a reason
And summertime you still smell like my favorite season
And it feels like pain, it's just like pain
Love is like pain, some people like pain
Somewhere between the mountain and sea, a river is flowing
Somewhere between the Earth and the sky, the winds of change are blowing
Somewhere between the two of us a space is growing
Somewhere between suspicion and trust are the things worth knowing
Somewhere along the road you might want to hitch a ride
Somewhere along the line you're gonna have to swallow your pride
Somewhere inside you still remind me of a feeling
Somewhere deeper still are wounds that are not healing
And it feels like pain, it's just like pain
Love is like pain, some people like pain
Put your nails in my hand, pain
Fill my eyes up with sand, pain
Papercuts on my tongue, pain
We're right now where we begun, pain
Somehow I only hurt the ones who really mattered
Somehow she played her role although her soul was battered
Someday soon I know my ashes will be scattered
Someday soon I know my former becomes latter
And it feels like pain, it's just like pain
Love is like pain, some people like pain

Everlast | Shroomz Pt. Ii | /e/everlast/shroomz+pt+ii_20705975.html | [Everlast]
Oh this tastes like shit
Oh, that's awful
[Xzibit]
Whitey Ford takes the flows, y'all
See I'm about to have the time of my life, Bacardi on ice
Live from Los Angeles, it's Saturday night
While others staty tight we're looking for some parties to crash
I never bounce, rock and splash without my Alkaholik stash
I scooped the homie Tash, introduce me to Everlast
He know where the bitches move fast so we can have a blast
[Everlast (Xzibit)]
I think you know my man Sadat from the Nubian crew
And I can see you're rolling tight with the Likwit too, yeah
I make room for every crew whose beats be booming
I know you puffing some weed but are you down with some shrooming
(Shrooming, hell nah, that's what the white boys be doing)
I got room in the jeep, we can mash a few down
Eat a few bags of shit and we could mash up a town
See I know this spot where them things will be hot
We guarantee at least two chickens up in every pot
So whatcha want (whatcha got), ay yo, eat some of these
And thrust us all up, you'll be cool like a breeze
[Xzibit] (Everlast)
Brought me back some orange juice, two vitamin C's
And the look on my face look like a painful disease
They tasted awful but by that time I had a jawful
(Just chill, ten minutes and it's all downhill)
Downhill, how does it feel, how long does it take to work
Am I gonna fry my disk, does it make my stomach hurt
Captain Kirk pulled into the night club parking lot
The line was aroudn the block, hurry up and find a spot
Straight to the bar drinking hennessey and orange juice
I gotta be trippin', that bitch just melted through the floor
[Everlast] (Xzibit)
Yo, either I'm high or I think that I'm dreaming
Don't take this shot wrong, but X you look like a demon (what)
And I might start scremaing, I think I might puke (yeah)
Cause I just heard a voice saying use the voice Luke, what the fuck
[Xzibit]
Brothers and sisters walking by that I recognize
Feeling hypnotized, Peoples Dilated changing sides
To my surprise we didn't even have to scrap tonight
Higher than kites, staring at lights, this a other type of high
[Everlast]
My mouth was dry, I forgot how to breathe
And I just saw some shit that you wouldn't believe
With this bomb, baby palm, ain't no tricks up my sleeve
Let me slide up in this mix, get some chicks and we'll leave
[Xzibit]
We be stumblin' straight from the bar, straight to the car
Feeling like my feet getting stuck to the street
Went to my house smokin' trees, playing video games
Everlast, a couple of homies, a couple of days
[Everlast]
It was me, X and Tash, we was smokin' a J
With this girl named Michelle, and her friend Chantay
Pumpin' Straight Outta Compton by N-W-A
Am I talking out loud or just thinkin' this way
[Xzibit]
Damn I can't find my keys, chickens ready to leave
They're ready to bounce, yo I think we smoked the whole ounce
I'm roaming the house, finding my words hard to pronounce
Talking to myself, see Mariah Gage on the shelf
For everything stays deep, I shoulda known all the cases
Twenty-five lightnings is what Xzibit is facin'
If somebody catch a slug at my house
That's the last time I ever put some stupid ass drugs in my mouth
Pulled a fifty, unloaded the gage, at least I thought so
Except I kept one in the chamber for Vinnie?
That's what I forgot, that's what I lost
When I pointed the barrel at the floor and the gauge went off

Everlast | Sixty-Five Roses | /e/everlast/sixty+five+roses_20986259.html | It's been a bit of a while since I seen you smile
It's been too long baby what went wrong
Tell me how it got spoilt
Tell me when it went bad
How to get back to the times that we had
We're both young
And our spirits are old
Now we're just angry and we act like we're old
We can't even talk it out without one of us walking away
You were eighteen I just turned twenty nine
I was fresh out the coffin and
Girl you were so fine
The future was bright
The world, it seemed new
I was with some other woman
I was thinking of you
Knew how it hurts
Knew how it feels
Knew it how aches
Cos the heart never heals
We're so busy screaming that we don't hear the words that we say
Taking out lumps
Took a few blows
Hit a few bumps
Had our fair share of wounds
We tried to see good
Through all of the bad
Put on our smiles
Pretend we're not sad
Gotta be tough
Gotta be strong
Gotta be right
Can't afford to be wrong
It's hard to sing the blues
When you're hearing bad news everyday
We worry too much for one couple to bear
Hunger so much for one person to care
Fooling our family
We're fooling our friends
Pray that the pain and the frustration ends
Hope is a chance
Hope is a dream
Hope is a drug
Maybe hope's a vaccine
In the race against time I get down on my knees and I pray
Shout at the devil
I curse the lord
Offer them everything I can afford
I'd sell out my soul
I lighten to see
Tried to be righteous
Tried to believe
Prayed every prayer
Kicked all of my highs
For hours I'd stare at those beautiful eyes
All of my problems seem to be melting away
The smile on her face says daddy everything is okay
In the race against time I get down on my knees and I pray

Everlast | Some Nights (Are Better Than Others) | /e/everlast/some+nights+are+better+than+others_20258759.html | Some nights are better than others
Some fights are left among brothers
Some nights are better than others
Some fights are left among brothers
You know the freaks come out at night with the drama
I'm a break it down, take it down, learn it
Roll it up, burn it, think it
Stir it up, drink it, swallow it
Follow it straight to the heart of the matter
Program the data, turn on the lights
Watch them all scatter, from the shine off the glean
Course by my team, it's the high pro glow
One for the show, two for the handgun
Three, the one you man run when it's time for the action
All the stories you told are bound to get old
When your hands ain't as fast as the words you flippin'
Word to Scott Pippin, got to be trippin'
You must have been slippin', or want the ass whippin'
It's time to start flippin'
[Chorus]
Some nights are better than others
Break it down to the bare root essence
Some fights are left among brothers
Count your fingers then count your blessins
[Repeat Chorus]
They say blood runs thicker than water
Mothers to sons, bullets to guns
Hard times are spreadin', just like the flu
The voodoo child don't need to be raised
I'm no kid, act wild son, you might get blazed
Like an acid hit, I rock classic shit
That can make your head bump, put some shake in your rump
This ain't Forrest Gump but I got mad rhyme
Why you shoot that gun, I'm a shoot this gift
Leave you internally perplexed like the question if
Some hit the spliff, some of y'all sniff
Some clap the hammer when they pull a four fifth
But most of y'all fry, kid let's be blunt
You tryin' to be the man, well I be on the man hunt
Chorus x4

Everlast | Speak No Evil | /e/everlast/speak+no+evil_20052136.html | [Featuring cool Nick]
I'm in the studio with my brotha
The half Asiatic
You know the fraction of black skin and a smidget of white
It's my brotha cool Nick
And we about to drop some science on the this track
About God and what not and the world...
Step up and bow your head
Be grateful your hungry for knowledge
I'm serving a plate full of 12 course meals
And a black plate of of wax through MC's
Sit back and relax
Try to digest the data that I feed you
I'm actin' this way 'cause I'm bred to the color of my skin
Something I take pride in
Still my people insist on hidin' the American dream
And it's like the home of the free
And mom's apple pie
I got whiped for the meltin' pod
I guess not
Kid stuck up for his rights and got shot
Yah, I speak no evil 2X
Yo, Nikc do me a favor
Step up!
[Kool Nick]
His world is crazy
It must be sick
Be like Nick
Get ricious real quick
Jews, Muslims, Buddah Baptists
Brought up like the Merry Christmas
See salvation
Every pinch of rhyme is from my heart
And I meant this
Jesus...Scattered his blood for me
He hung on a cross
You know that story
Nowadays a lot of people are trying to worship Satan
But your gonna fry in hell
I'm never burning up the forcast
No change in weather
Damn the Devil would never twist this mind with the mark of the 666
Thanks God there no one equal
That's why I say no evil 2X
Listen to the story of my savor
And how he gave up life to let uslive
That's a hell of a gift to give
Kick it E
Now as I take a look around
I don't see many people down
With my cars...Ha, that's scary
Tryin' to diss the son of Marry
You being lord take the bait
And fall into the trap of Satan
Then your life's over with no sequal
That's why I speak no evil 2X
Yo this is weird rhymin'
Strange brothers are gettin' shaked on the streets with gold chains
Some smoke crack, cocaine, and Jumbo fried
When they talk mumbo
How can this be society
I front the place where none of us want to be
People gettin' judged by the skin tone
It wasn't like this way back with the Flinstones!
Some times I get kept back because I'm half black
People can't except that, YO except me for what I am
What did I do
Because noneof us give a damn
All they want is to drive a Mercedes
Half a million dollars...
AND LIVE LIKE THE BRADY'S!!
But anyways time is winding
Not grinding
Lok in your heart and start finding peace and love
No matter what your grade is understand the knowledge at hand and
Believe this
I speak no evil!
Word up
We got my Ma Lofy in the house
Man, my boy Chris
My brother Low-Dog
My brother Bry
My lady T
Yo we got Shawny, you what's up
My brother E over there
HAHAHA you know I speak no evil!

Everlast | Syndication | /e/everlast/syndication_20353290.html | (Wait a minute)
Dope new styles of rhyme, not breakin science
Down with the Rhyme Syndicate alliance
You're on the tip but in the crack of a whip
You know the saying about ships and slips with a lip?
You'll be sunk while I be gettin drunk
With the bottle of rose I keep in my trunk, punk
Don't try to get none, know where I'm comin from?
I don't care if you do got a gun
You better step off before I go off
And don't dare bug, riff or show off
Cause then I break hard, you think I'm a fanatic
Speak my rhymes in English, not breakin no mathematics
Cause that's for other people, boy, I ain't got 'em
But in almost every other rhyme I can spot 'em
Get off it, get off the bandwagon
Runnin the same old styles you keep draggin
Everlast is here with rhymes ready to drop
Hey yo, here I go again
I'm the foreman of this rap, this rhyme style construction
You're on the eve of destruction
(Wait a minute)
(Keep on singin, keep on singin) (4x)
Step forward face up, meet the grim reaper
You're aimin for the top as the ladder gets steeper
To my man Divine I send this dedication
To let him know that with his help I got a Syndication
With the dope rhymes I write, the styles I recite
Don't follow this leader, I'm not your guiding light
To the groove I'm smooth like a hit from a buddha
I might smoke an herb but I won't sniff or shoot up
Not hangin with gangs or messin with thugs
Not slingin no caine or dealin no drugs
Cause I'm straight like an arrow, the path I follow is narrow
On the rise Everlast will sore like a sparrow
Through the sky, so don't ask me why
If you're dazed and confused you must be high
So before you try and break make sure that you're sober
Cause I'll snatch your crown, boy, then I'll destroy ya
(Wait a minute)
(Keep on singin, keep on singin) (8x)
To all you new jack MC's writin your rhymes in haste
Get dissed, put out of business, don't it seem like a race?
Face death, your final breath jumpin up in my face
I'm a single not a pair, not a deuce I'm a ace
As you hear the treble clack hear my bass tone kick
Take three out in a snap like a flat hat trick
Everlast is educated, energized for endurance
Properly protected with a 100 g insurance
For my mouth (mouth) (mouth)
Wet my whistle at a party with a Coke and a stout
Take heed duck MC's cause Everlast has the clout
So break north, suckers, the top's why I came
Don't wanna hear beefin, cryin or complainin
From you or any other party or set
The pied piper of rhyme, it's time to pay your debt
Pay the piper, the sniper, who wanna get hyper
On the microphone there's no other type of
MC gettin with the E
Down with Divine and DLC
Def Lyric Creations on radio stations
Everlast reigns supreme and I'm in Syndication
(Wait a minute)
(Keep on singin, keep on singin) (4x)
Hey yo, come here, lend me your ear
Everlast is the name of me and my gear
So get up, get with it, come on, admit it
The rhyme I just spoke, you wish you did it
Like I do and you tried to
But I'd quit while I'm ahead if I were you
But I'm not, I'm givin all I got
Get the girls on the floor, make em hot to trot
For the Caucasian Sensation there's no hesitation
Everlast reigns supreme and I'm in Syndication
(Wait a minute)
(Keep on singin, keep on singin)
(Everlast is here with)

Everlast | The Nightmare (Muggs Mash-Up) | /e/everlast/the+nightmare+muggs+mash+up_20502496.html | Mr. Whitey Ford
I see the nightmare inside
Of your American Dream
I'm screaming:
Bismi allah al-rahman al-raheem
With your fascist regime
And racist magazines
Trying to ruin peoples livelyhood
You're all hoods
All their tricks and bedfellows
There's safety in numbers
Cause some cats are fighters and
Some cats are runners
Big game hunters assassin made politicans
While corporate ceos
Got their ruthless ambitions
Nostradamus premonitions
They see the end coming
Every kid from the suburb
A hundered miles and runnin'
The influence is stunnin'
Enough to make you stagger
Cause prep-school Johnny
Got some thug in his swagger
Take seven politicians
Put them in a line
Take seven Hollow Points
Put them in my Nine
I'll give them seven more minutes
For some prayin' time
Then I'll pull back my trigger
And I'll blow your mind...

Everlast | The Warning | /e/everlast/the+warning_10111402.html | This, this, this, this is a warning, I, I warned you baby
This, this, this is a warning
This, this, this, this is a warning, I, I warned you baby
This, this, this is a warning
Back of the liquor store bout to blaze this joint
Got some dice in my hand, my man says six is your point
Trying to hit the hard way so I can break like Steve Millar
Take the money then I run son, I'm a lover and a killer
This, this, this, this is a warning, I, I warned you baby
This, this, this is a warning
I feel like God and the devil, I'm a saint, I'm a sinner
I'm a hard rocking, hard headed, hard sick summer winner
I'm a cooch blazing, bush chasing product of the city
And I ain't asking for your love and I don't want your pity
So girl don't talk about me shitty, don't act all high and ditty
Cause if your man keep playing me funny I'm a come take all his money
And leave him holy from this blessing with my four pound Smith-N-Wesson
Better watch out who you're stressin', fuck around you'll learn your lesson
This, this, this, this is a warning, I, I warned you baby
This, this, this is a warning
This, this, this, this is a warning, I, I warned you baby
This, this, this is a warning
Back of the liquor store tryin' to break these chumps
Bunch of heads in a circle, daddy's handing out lumps
Trying to shake these bones, I'm trying to get these shoes
But yo they all think Whitey's cheating 'cause tonight I can't lose
They want to take my funds but I'm a blaze my guns
With burning sensations and heart palpitations
Why you breathing so heavy, while your palms all sweaty
And if you thinkin' bout a stick move, word to God you ain't ready
This, this, this, this is a warning, I, I warned you baby
This, this, this is a warning
This, this, this, this is a warning, I, I warned you baby
This, this, this is a warning
This is a warning, this is a warning
This is a warning, this, this is a warning

Everlast | Ticking Away | /e/everlast/ticking+away_20312803.html | Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
I've got to go, but I'd love to stay
Yo I've been walkin' round in the streets of these cities
I've flipped a few whiskies, I've rode a few kitties
I made a few dollars, I bought a few bottles
I popped a few collars then rocked a few models
I've pushed a few buttons, left all you cats guessing
It's ? Garcia, bia, who you stressin'
I'm ?, bout to drop blessings
I had to kill Whitey, word to the almighty
I'm tailor-made and I'm custom-fitted
Can't none of y'all cats do it like I did it
I might come sing it, I might come spit it
And if you want to take it, try to come get it
You'll get your wig splitted, get your grill busted
I'm crazy like the Beastie Boys were still dusted
Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you don't stop
I've got to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock tick and you don't quit, hit it
Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you don't stop
I've got to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock tick and you don't quit, hit it
Yo, off the dummy's instrumental, I spit heavy metal
Never been from the ghetto, keep it mad fundamental
Became a night devil, ? rebel
Add some bass, add some treble, pump up my level
Cause mad motherfuckers done bit my steeze
And the game has got biters like dogs got fleas
And all you dick riders get up off your knees
Drinkers turn your bottles up, smokers burn your trees
Learn your A be see's, mind your P's and Q's
Fuck around, get shot up, wind up on the news
Yo, it's ? Garcia, he a singin' the blues
Rockin' shiney jewels and some brand new shoes
I love my mama cause she ain't raised no fools
My golden rule is stay holdin' the tool
What you doing to your people's comes back on you
Don't know when the grim reaper wants to rendezvous
It's like
Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you don't stop
I've got to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock tick and you don't quit, hit it
Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you don't stop
I've got to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock tick and you don't quit, hit it
I hear mad motherfuckers say they're ready to die
Acting like they don't care but I swear they lie
Tell you now if they had to look death in the eye
They beg and they plead and they scream and they cry
When the reaper calls, you all will fall
You all will fall when the reaper calls
When the reaper calls, you all will fall
You all will fall when the reaper calls
I hear a lot of motherfuckers say they down for the kill
Most of them are just clowns but they swear they will
Spend a lot of time being down, keepin' it real
But I pay more attention to the ones that keep still
You all will fall when the reaper calls
When the reaper calls, you all will fall
You all will fall when the reaper calls
When the reaper calls, you all will fall
Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you don't stop
I've got to go, but I'd love to stay
A tock tick and you don't quit, hit it
Clock on the wall keeps ticking away
A tick tock and you don't stop
I've got to go, but I'd love to stay

Everlast | Tired | /e/everlast/tired_20052158.html | We can go, soul for soul, over mic control
Kid you can touch me with a ten foot pole
And I even made the devil sell me his jewels
He was out to cold mock me, and play you for fools
Kid, you know the rules, must be smoking (?two for booze?)
Try to dis me on the low, got to be a psycho
That's alright though, you know you won't see me shaking
I'm out to the blow the spot on who's real and who's faking
Who's giving, who's taking, who's living, who's starving
Dis me on the mic, it's time for headstone carving
And epitaph writing, I strike you like lightning
Dissolve you like powder, so turn it up louder
Go on, pump the wattage, get the cheese, buy a cottage
I like mean streets, I like Spanish freaks
I like Korean bar-be -que, I like old school beats
Chorus:
And I'm sick of all the shit that's dropping
And I'm tired of all the lip that's popping
And all the wack attitudes people copping
I'm only tryin' to get a few heads bobbing
(Repeat)
It go bang bang boogie, I'm sick like a loogie
I'm w(e)iser than Bud, I'm thicker than blood
I'm moldin' in time, moldin' from the divine
How could you be so bold, to think that you'll take mine
I'm Cash like Johnny, it's the highway man
And I'm walkin' this line the best way I can
With my farmer's tan and my bloodshot eyes
I ain't body no one, I ain't dropped no pies
With the mothers from the gutters
I'm 'bout to explode, and blow the spot
For now, but the gun, he'll roll
Like artillery shells, been from heaven to hell
And I'm say a little prayer for every rapper that fell

Everlast | Today | /e/everlast/today_10111467.html | Yesterday, just a dream I don't remember
Tomorrow, still a hope I've yet to endure
I'm out of time
I'm out of rhyme
I'm out of reason
Season's change and leave me out in the cold
The story's old
The tale been told by many scholars
Got a fistful of dollar
And a pocketful of love
God above if you hear me cryin'
I've tried to sell my soul
But no one's buyin'
Lord, strike me down now if I'm lyin'
It's gettin' cold
It's time for dyin.
Chorus
Come on and watch me shine
Like the world is mine (check it out) today
Come on and watch me shine (check it out)
Like the world is mine today
Watch me shine (check it out)
Let the man who's free from sin
Cast the first stone and begin the violence
Let the man whose words ring true
Speak on up till his voice breaks through the silence
Let the ones who lose their way
Live to see just one more day in the sunshine
Let the ones who choose to stray
Recognize the price they'll pay
In their lifetime
Chorus
Come on and watch me shine
Like the world is mine (check it out) today
Come on and watch me shine (check it out)
Like the world is mine today
Watch me shine (check it out)
Sittin here waitin' for my roads to cross
You nail me down and you watch me bleed
So lay my head against the earth
Plant my body like a seed
You can't always get the things you want, love (check it out)
You get what you deserve
Or maybe what you need
So fill my hole with precious dirt, love
Till the soil and part the weed
Chorus
Come on and watch me shine
Like the world is mine (check it out) today
Come on and watch me shine (check it out)
Like the world is mine today
Watch me shine (check it out)

Everlast | Tuesday Morning | /e/everlast/tuesday+morning_20833953.html | I was too busy counting all my zeros
Never really thought too much about heroes
Never really thought too much about anyone but me
Never really opened my eyes wide enough so that I could see
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
We're only separated by a few degrees
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
Just like me, just like me
Never really thought too much about tomorrow
Never really dealt very well with sorrow
Tired of living my life like a feather floating on the breeze
Trying to find me a good woman that can bring me down to my knee
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
We're only separated by a few degrees
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
Just like me, just like me
I think I've always tried to do the right thing
I've been a little to scared to ride the lightening
Tired of living my days surrounded by all these fears
Still stuck in my ways haven't changed after all these years
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
We're only separated by a few degrees
And I'm just like you, you're just like me
Just like me, just like me, just like me, just like me
Just like me, just like me, just like me, just like me

Everlast | Weakness | /e/everlast/weakness_20833961.html | Met a fine red boned mami, she told me that her name was Lucille
Met her on Fountain Avenue sitting on a Cadillac Coupe de Ville
She said I'm a liar, a thief, a junkie and I used to be a whore
And I've been trying to shake this monkey so long I just can't take it no more
I got a weakness, I got a hunger, I got a jones
I'm sick and I need to get well, I hurt deep in my bone
I got a weakness, I got a fever, I got a thirst
I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble
Just waiting for it to burst?
We talked all afternoon, she made me cry, I told some jokes
She looked me deep in my eyes and told me love was nothing but a cruel hoax
Her grandmother died when she was five and she never did know her folks
Her father fell in a gun fight and her mother by an overdose
I got a weakness I got a hunger, I got a jones
I'm sick and I need to get well, I hurt deep in my bones
I got a weakness, I got a fever, I got a thirst
I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble
Just waiting for it to burst
She said I've slept with gangsters, thugs and smugglers, congressman and
governors
I've seen therapists and holy men but this weakness is my only friend
It feeds my need it numbs my soul, it starts to creep and takes control
Sell my flesh I pierce my skin
And tomorrow I'ma do it all again
I got a weakness I got a hunger I got a jones
I'm sick and I need to get well
I hurt deep in my bones.
I got a weakness, I got a fever, I got a thirst,
I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble
Just waiting for it to burst?

Everlast | What It's Like | /e/everlast/what+its+like_20052160.html | We've all seen a man at the liquor store beggin' for your change
The hair on his face is dirty, dread-locked, and full of mange
He asks a man for what he could spare, with shame in his eyes
"Get a job you fucking slob," is all he replies
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes
Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues
[Chorus]
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom that said he was in love
He said, "Don't worry about a thing, baby doll
I'm the man you've been dreaming of."
But three months later he say he won't date her or return her calls
And she swear, "God damn, if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls."
And then she heads for the clinic and
She gets some static walking through the door
They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner
And they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes
Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose
[Chorus]
I've seen a rich man beg
I've seen a good man sin
I've seen a tough man cry
I've seen a loser win
And a sad man grin
I heard an honest man lie
I've seen the good side of bad
And the downside of up
And everything between
I licked the silver spoon
Drank from the golden cup
And smoked the finest green
I stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times
Before I broke their heart
You know where it ends, yo, it usually depends on where you start
I knew this kid named Max
Who used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs
He liked to hang out late
He liked to get shit-faced and keep the pace with thugs
Until late one night there was a big gun fight and Max lost his head
He pulled out his chrome .45, talked some shit, and wound up dead
Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of this pain
You know it comes that way
At least that's what they say when you play the game
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news
Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like
Then you really might know what it's like...to have to lose

Everlast | White Trash Beautiful | /e/everlast/white+trash+beautiful_10111397.html | White trash beautiful, trailer park queen
She slings hash at the diner from eleven to five
She married a boy from school, thought he was oh so cool
But all he can do for money is drive
Out late hauling freight on interstate five
Prayin' he'll see home before his baby arrive
White trash beautiful, there's something you should know
My heart belongs to you
And you could have found a better guy
I'll love you till the day I die, I swear to God it's true
I'm coming home to you
I'm coming home to you girl
He lights a cigarette, his eyes half open
He won't be home tonight but she keeps hopin'
Drinkin' himself to sleep is his only way of copin'
She waits for him every night, she leaves the front door open
It's four am, and doin' 95
Tryin' to stay awake and make it home alive
White trash beautiful, there's something you should know
My heart belongs to you
I know you could have found a better guy
I'll love you till the day I die, I swear to God it's true
I'm coming home to you
I'm coming home to you girl
Her lips stay painted red, her name tag's crooked
Her heart's been gone a while with the truck driving man that took it
He keeps her photograph on his rearview mirror
She prays for him every night, she hopes that he can hear her
White trash beautiful, there's something you should know
My heart belongs to you
I know you could have found a better guy
I'll love you till the day I die, I swear to God it's true
I'm coming home to you
I'm coming home to you girl
I'm coming home to you
I'm coming home to you girl
I'm coming home to you

Exo | Moonlight | /e/exo/moonlight_21082834.html | Yeah, stop, stop. Those wings will get wet oh, stop, stop
In the gap between a deepening day you come slowly
The darkness skims by and wakes me up
And across the open window receding away
Have you, you, you lost your way again
The night air is still cold, get up
So, baby, hold on I'm worried of leaving you alone
I leave the road and follow behind you
You shower in the pouring moonlight
I haven't seen that entrancing expression before
I look at you who's stopped like a picture and at the end of that gaze
A place where I can't touch you and can't even hold you
What's shining under the surface is not that person
Your sad story that can't come true
The closer you go, the more you'll hurt, so
Just that love stop, stop, stop, stop, yeah
Just that love stop, stop, stop, stop, yeah
Like this I'm anxiously calling you
Don't go babe, those wings will get wet
No matter how much I tell you, you don't listen
You throw your whole body towards him again
Why do you dream a dangerous dream
(Now stop those tiring [actions]) So that your heart can rest a little
My heart watching you feels as if it'll rip as well
You shower in the pouring moonlight
I haven't seen that entrancing expression before
I look at you who's stopped like a picture and at the end of that gaze
A place where I can't touch you and can't even hold you
What's shining under the surface is not that person
Your sad story that can't come true
The closer you go, the more you'll hurt, so
Just that love stop, stop, stop, stop, yeah
Just that love stop, stop, stop, stop, yeah
Like this I'm anxiously calling you
Don't go babe, those wings will get wet
Like nothing happened you try
Even though you're smiling towards me
Your slender and pale shoulders shake a little, I'm telling you
It's okay if you let everything go and rest at my side for just a little while
When the sun rises, follow the place where the moon gets dark, fly away then,
yeah
A place where I can't touch you and we can't be together
What's shining under the surface is not that person
Your sad story that can't come true
The closer you go, the more you'll hurt, so
Just that love stop, stop, stop, stop, yeah
Just that love stop, stop, stop, stop, yeah

Extreme | Better Off Dead | /e/extreme/better+off+dead_20052227.html | I heard your mother died
Just a few days ago
And tears fill your eyes with grief and sorrow
'Cause you to question why because you don't know
If there comes a time when we all, when we all must go
[Chorus]
Better off dead, if you're going to believe
Better off dead, in some painful (painful) memories
Better off dead, for truly you'll be free
Then to get down on your knees
Can you continue to go on and ignore?
A most certain fate you have grown, grown to abhor
If what you believe is true
And you have no remorse
No matter what you do, no matter what you do
Oh, you'll be on, you'll be on the same course
[Chorus]
Can someone tell me why I'm not better off dead?
I no longer deny these thoughts filling my head
I'm left to decide for this path I've been led
If there's more to life than just death
[Chorus]
It's alright, I'm only bleeding
