Give me an amen! (A-men!) "Please Lord, this boy needs Jesus Heal this child, help us destroy these demons Oh, and please send me a brand new car And a prostitute while my wife's sick in the hospital" Preacher, preacher! Fifth grade teacher! You can't reach me, my mom can't neither You can't teach me a goddamn thing 'cause I watch TV and Comcast cable And you ain't able to stop these thoughts You can't stop me from toppin' these charts And you can't stop me from droppin' each March With a brand new CD for these fuckin' retards (Duh) And to think, it's just little ol' me Mr. Don't-Give-a-Fuck still won't leave You might also like[Chorus] I'm a criminal!

Seduction
Eminem
[Intro: Eminem & Sly Jordan] Like a verbal seduction when Seduction when I tell 'em girls on the floor I don't know, man (Geh-geh-geh) Just feels like we're a lot different (Right now) (Girls on the floor) It kinda feels like (Like a verbal seduction when) I'm on a whole different page right now than you (Girls on the floor) It feels strange, but umm (Girls on the floor) I guess it's kinda like, it's kinda like... [Verse 1: Eminem] I feel like I'm morphin' into somethin' that's so incredible That I'm dwarfin' all competitors Better get your girlfriend in check It's psychological warfare, endorphins I effect Your self-esteem shatters as dialect comes blastin' out your deck She loves me, such passion, you'd expect This sort of reaction from her, yet you strong-arm You're fuckin' corny, you try to turn your charm on 'Cause you just think you're Bishop the Don Juan But if you think that you're fuckin' with me, homie, you're on one I'm cockin' my head back like Ed Lover, "C'mon, son!" She's on my Johnson, she brings my name up constant Your boys are like, "She's fuckin' with dude, she wants some" Homeboy, you better get a clue She's on my dick 'cause I spit better than you What you expect her to do? How you expect her to act in the sack when she's closin' her eyes Fantasizin' of diggin' her nails in my back to this track?

I'm the logo on that Dallas Cowboy helmet: a star And I'm not about to sit back And just keep rhymin' one syllable — naw! Switch it up and watch them haters not give it up 'Cause they're just not good enough, but I'm not givin' up 'Til I get my respect and I won't stop 'til I get enough 'Cause I'm not livin' up to my own expectations (Aww!) That hater alarm is soundin' off And Obama took the bomb from my name (Aww!) So quit cryin' that I took your dame, homie, she's my dame (Aww!) You sadly mistaken if you thinkin' that I'm not on my game, boy And things just ain't been the same since the day that I came forth You wear your heart on your sleeve, I sport that white tank, boy But you got a hard-on for me, what you hollerin' my name for? It's your bitch on my dick, ain't my dang fault, man, I can't call it [Chorus: Eminem & Sly Jordan] Seduction, seduce Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do (It's like a verbal seduction when) 'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't She's been stolen from you (It's like a verbal seduction when) Seduction, seduce Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do 'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't She's been stolen from you (It's like a verbal seduction when) [Verse 3: Eminem] It's like we're playin' lyrical tug of war with your ear You hear it, girl? Come here Put your ear up to the speaker, dear While I freak this world premiere Seducin' her, loosen up With a little freestyle that'll— wait, am I losin' ya? Am I makin' you look bad? Well, I got news for ya Homie, you losin' her Oh wait, she don't like when I spit it fast Am I tryin' to show how? Let me slow it down some It's still gonna be a blow-out You're gonna wanna throw out your whole album Rummage through the shit and try to salvage somethin' to see If you can save any of it, punk, but none of it's fuckin' with me Prick, you really feelin' that bullshit? You think you killin' them syllables? Quit Playin', these beats ain't nothin' to fool with They call me Fire Marshall: I shut the shit down Your entire arsenal is not enough to fuck with one round I am also the opposite of what you are like You're a microcosm of what the fuck I am on the mic I am awesome and you are just awe-struck She's love-stricken, she's got her jaw stuck From suckin' my dick... aw, fuck [Chorus: Eminem & Sly Jordan] Seduction, seduce Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do (It's like a verbal seduction when) 'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't She's been stolen from you (It's like a verbal seduction when) Seduction, seduce Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do 'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't She's been stolen from you (It's like a verbal seduction when)61

Put 'em in chronological order, beginnin' with Jack the Ripper Name the time and place; from the body, the bag, the zipper Location of the woods, where the body was dragged and then dumped The trunk that they were stuffed in, the model, the make, the plate And which model, which lake they found her in, how they attacked the victim Say which murder weapon was used to do what in which one Which knife and which gun, what kid, what wife, and which nun Don't stop, I like this, it's fun, the fuckin' night's just begun [Chorus] It must be the ganja, it's the marijuana That's creeping up on me, why I'm so high Maybe it's the Henny that has gotten in me Whatever's got into me, I don't mind I said it's the ganja, it's the marijuana That's creeping up on me, why I'm so high Maybe it's the Hindi that has gotten in me Whatever's got into me, I don't mind [Verse 3] When I'm behind the mic, dynamite's what it's kinda like You're stuck with the same stick that you're tryna light Behind the board sits Dre, legends are made this way Isn't it safe to say this is the way it should be?

I've tried in this department, but I ain't had no luck with this It sucks, but it's exactly what I thought it would be like tryin' to start over I got a hole in my heart, but some kind of emotional roller coaster Somethin' I won't go on, so you toy with my emotions, so it's over It's like an explosion every time I hold ya Wasn't jokin' when I told you you take my breath away You're a supernova and I'm a You might also like[Chorus: Steve McEwan] I'm a space-bound rocket ship and your heart's the Moon And I'm aimin' right at you, right at you Two-hundred-fifty-thousand miles on a clear night in June And I'm aimin' right at you, right at you Right at you [Verse 2: Eminem] I'll do whatever it takes When I'm with you, I get the shakes My body aches when I ain't with you, I have zero strength There's no limit on how far I would go, no boundaries, no lengths Why do we say that until we get that person that we think's gonna be that one? And then once we get 'em, it's never the same You want 'em when they don't want you Soon as they do, feelings change It's not a contest and I ain't on no conquest for no mate I wasn't lookin' when I stumbled onto you, musta been fate But so much is at stake, what the fuck does it take?

Look at how I dress, fuckin' baggy sweats, go to work a mess Always in a rush to get back to you, I ain't heard you yet Not even once say you appreciate me, I deserve respect I've done my best to give you nothin' less than perfectness And I know that if I end this I'll no longer have nothin' left But you keep treatin' me like a staircase: it's time to fuckin' step And I won't be comin' back, so don't hold your fuckin' breath You know what you've done, no need to go in-depth I told you you'd be sorry if I fuckin' left, I laughed while you wept How's it feel now?

I have no life outside of that Don't I give you enough of my time? You don't think so, do you? Jealous when I spend time with the girls, why I'm married to you still? Man, I don't know, but tonight I'm serving you with papers I'm divorcing you – go marry someone else and make 'em famous! And take away their freedom like you did to me Treat 'em like you don't need 'em and they ain't worthy of you Feed 'em the same shit that you made me eat I'm moving on, forget you Oh, now I'm special? I ain't feel special when I was with you All I ever felt was this helplessness, imprisoned by a selfish bitch Chew me up and spit me out, I fell for this So many times it's ridiculous And still I stick with this, I'm sick of this But in my sickness and addiction, you're addictive as they get Evil as they come, vindictive as they make 'em My friends keep askin' me why I can't just walk away from I'm addicted to the pain, the stress, the drama, I'm drawn to Shit, I guess I'm a mess, cursed and blessed, but this time I Ain't changin' my mind, I'm climbin' out this abyss You're screamin' as I walk out that I'll be missed But when you spoke of people who meant the most to you, you left me off your list Fuck you, hip hop!

Dear Mama
2Pac
[Intro] You are appreciated [Verse 1] When I was young, me and my mama had beef Seventeen years old, kicked out on the streets Though back at the time I never thought I'd see her face Ain't a woman alive that could take my mama's place Suspended from school, and scared to go home I was a fool, with the big boys breakin' all the rules I shed tears with my baby sister, over the years We was poorer than the other little kids And even though we had different daddies, the same drama When things went wrong we'd blame Mama I reminisce on the stress I caused, it was hell Huggin' on my mama from a jail cell And who'd think in elementary, hey I'd see the penitentiary one day? And runnin' from the police, that's right Mama catch me, put a whoopin' to my backside And even as a crack fiend, Mama You always was a black queen, Mama I finally understand For a woman, it ain't easy tryin' to raise a man You always was committed A poor single mother on welfare, tell me how you did it There's no way I can pay you back But the plan is to show you that I understand You are appreciated You might also like[Chorus: Reggie Green & Sweet Franklin, 2Pac] Lady, don't you know we love ya? (Dear Mama) Sweet lady, place no one above ya (You are appreciated) Sweet lady, don't you know we love ya? [Verse 2] Now, ain't nobody tell us it was fair No love for my daddy, 'cause the coward wasn't there He passed away and I didn't cry 'Cause my anger wouldn't let me feel for a stranger They say I'm wrong and I'm heartless, but all along I was lookin' for a father, he was gone I hung around with the thugs, and even though they sold drugs They showed a young brother love I moved out and started really hangin' I needed money of my own, so I started slangin' I ain't guilty, 'cause even though I sell rocks It feels good puttin' money in your mailbox I love payin' rent when the rent is due I hope you got the diamond necklace that I sent to you 'Cause when I was low you was there for me You never left me alone, because you cared for me And I could see you comin' home after work late You're in the kitchen, tryin' to fix us a hotplate You just workin' with the scraps you was given And Mama made miracles every Thanksgivin' But now the road got rough, you're alone You're tryin' to raise two bad kids on your own And there's no way I can pay you back But my plan is to show you that I understand You are appreciated [Chorus: Reggie Green & Sweet Franklin, 2Pac] Lady, don't you know we love ya? (Dear Mama) Sweet lady, place no one above ya (You are appreciated) Sweet lady, don't you know we love ya? [Verse 3] Pour out some liquor and I reminisce 'Cause through the drama, I can always depend on my mama And when it seems that I'm hopeless You say the words that can get me back in focus When I was sick as a little kid To keep me happy there's no limit to the things you did And all my childhood memories Are full of all the sweet things you did for me And even though I act crazy I gotta thank the Lord that you made me There are no words that can express how I feel You never kept a secret, always stayed real And I appreciate how you raised me And all the extra love that you gave me I wish I could take the pain away If you can make it through the night, there's a brighter day Everything will be alright if you hold on It's a struggle every day, gotta roll on And there's no way I can pay you back But my plan is to show you that I understand You are appreciated [Chorus: Reggie Green & Sweet Franklin, 2Pac] Lady, don't you know we love ya? (Dear Mama) Sweet lady, place no one above ya (You are appreciated) Sweet lady, don't you know we love ya? (Dear Mama) Sweet lady, lady (Dear Mama) Lady, lady254

It always seems to trouble me Now all of a sudden, these gossip rags want to cover me And you making it seem like it happened that way because of me But I was curious And I'll never forget it, baby, what an experience You could've been the one but it wasn't that serious There was smoke in the air before, that was me clearing it That felt good, all in all, I learned a lesson from it though You never see it coming, you just get to see it go Yeah, I should've looked up in the sky at first Now I can see it in her eyes, fireworks [Pre-Chorus: Drake] Oh, today it begins I've missed them before But won't miss them again I keep having the same dream And I think that I just realized what it means [Chorus: Alicia Keys] All I see is fireworks All I see is fireworks Every night it's fireworks Every night it's fireworks All I see is fireworks All I see is fireworks Taking off like fireworks Taking off like—Oh [Verse 3: Drake] Everythin' the same but it feels different My dad called me up knowing that I still listen And he's still got his foot out, guilt tripping It's been years though, I just learn to deal with it For real, me and my realtor, we built up a better rapport Got my mother in a place with some better decor She searched the entire city, I let her explore And now she's saying she more lonely than ever before How many of our parents marriages lasted? I was only 5, I bet I barely reacted I'm flying back home for the Heritage Classic Searching for that feeling, tell me where is the magic Let's stay together 'til we're ghosts I want to witness love, I never seen it close Yeah, but I guess I gotta find it first That's why I'm really going off, fireworks [Pre-Chorus: Drake] Oh, today it begins I've missed them before But won't miss them again I keep having the same dream And I think that I just realized what it means [Chorus: Alicia Keys] All I see is fireworks All I see is fireworks Every night it's fireworks Every night it's fireworks All I see is fireworks All I see is fireworks Taking off like fireworks Taking off like—Oh31

I ain't havin' that This is the millennium of Aftermath It ain't gon' be nothin' after that So give me one more platinum plaque And fuck rap, you can have it back So where's all the Mad Rappers at? It's like a jungle in this habitat But all you savage cats know that I was strapped with gats While you were cuddlin' a Cabbage Patch [Chorus: Eminem] Nowadays, everybody wanna talk Like they got somethin' to say But nothin' comes out when they move their lips Just a bunch of gibberish And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Dre Nowadays, everybody wanna talk Like they got somethin' to say But nothin' comes out when they move their lips Just a bunch of gibberish And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Dre [Outro: Eminem] Nowadays, everybody wanna talk like they got somethin' to say But nothin' comes out when they move their lips Just a bunch of gibberish And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Dre315

Turn the Page
The Streets
[Verse: Mike Skinner] That's it, turn the page on the day, walk away 'Cause there's sense in what I say, I'm forty-fifth generation Roman But I don't know 'em or care when I'm spitting So return to your sitting position and listen, it's fitting That I'm miles ahead and they chase me Show your face on TV then we'll see, you can't do half My crew laughs at your rhubarb-and-custard verses You rain down curses, but I'm waving your hearses driving by Streets riding high with the beats in the sky All stare, eyes glazed, garage burnt down The fire raged for forty days and in forty ways But through the blaze, they see it fade The sea of black, the beaming heat on their faces Then a figure emerges from the wastage Eyes transfixed with a piercing gaze One hand clutching his sword, raised to the sky They wonder how, they wonder why The sky turns white, it all becomes clear They felt lifted from their fears They shed tears in the light after six dark years Young bold soldiers, the fire burns, cracks and smoulders Five years older and wiser The fires are burning, on fire, never tire Slay warriors in the forests and on higher, we sing Hear the strings rising, the war's over, the bells ring Memories fading, soldiers slaying, looks like geezers raving The hazy fog over the Bullring, the lazy ways the birds sing A new baby's born every day, few men may be scorned today But look at things the other way 'Cause it may well be your final day And then the crowds roar, they slay, they all say I produced this using only my bare wit Give me a jungle or garage beat and admit defeat Use war and past injury as my metaphor and simile Get all applications in to me before the deadline 'Cause it's a fine line between strifeful crimes and a life of crime But you will reach the day And it's all mine, you can take it or leave it I shake and reveal stage tricks like Jimi Hendrix In the afterlife, gladiators meet their maker Float through the wheat fields and lakes of blue water To the next life from the fortress Away from the knives and slaughter To their wives and daughters Once more before the Lord judges over all of us It's in this place you'll see me Brace yourself, 'cause this goes deep I'll show you the secrets, the sky and the birds Actions speak louder than words Stand by me, my apprentice Be brave, clench fistsSee The Streets LiveGet tickets as low as $86You might also like5

Pitching pennies, honeys had the high-top jellies Shooting skelly, motherfuckers was all friendly Lounging at the barbecues, drinking brews With the neighborhood crews hanging on the avenues Turn your pages to 1993 Niggas is getting smoked, G, believe me Talk slick, you get your neck slit quick 'Cause real street niggas ain't having that shit Totin' TECs for rep Smoking blunts in the project hallways Shooting dice all day Waitin' for niggas to step up on some fightin' shit We get hype and shit and start lightin' shit So step away with your fistfight ways Motherfucker, this ain't back in the days But you don't hear me though You might also like[Chorus] Back in the day Things done changed on this side Remember they used to thump, but now they blast, right?

Past My Shades
B.o.B
[Intro: B.o.B] If you asked me what's on my mind, you probably won't believe it 'Cause if life was one big pool, I'd be in the deep end So I play my role and never ever speak it, like a secret And all the while you just try to figure me out (What?) [Chorus: B.o.B] But you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades [Verse 1: B.o.B] Well, ask me a question, I tell you no lies 'Cause there's nothing to hide, my soul's in my eyes And I'm ahead of my time but I cannot rewind The only thing I fear is the mirror in my bathroom People look and try to see a disguise But there is nothing that nobody can't see in light If it's a song with a rhyme or a verse with a line Then you understand my mind You might also like[Chorus: B.o.B] But you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades [Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco] Who else but Lu else? You know I got two belts, the black and the white one I begin and I master I see in my eye glasses But they saying what I'm seeing through is false like Ross I can hear him through the wall like "Walk This Way", trying to dissuade my thoughts I'm a slave to myself and disobeyed my boss It's all in disarray this parade I walk They get amazed when they catch a chain I toss Amidst this array of different ways I talk And it hangs from your brain if my chain you caught Like I cough without covering my mouth I tip the scales like the king of the south Forgot that I was fat, I lost my way But now I'm back looking for the shade I sought And not wonders, I'm Scott Summers So don't make me take off my stunners Bobby Ray, you know you got my numbers And them deer can't see us like hunters [Chorus: B.o.B] But you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades And you can't see past my shades Past my shades, past my shades4

Let me drop some shit like this here, real smooth [Verse 1: Scarface] At night I can't sleep, I toss and turn Candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies bein' burned Four walls just starin' at a nigga I'm paranoid, sleepin' with my finger on the trigger My mother's always stressin' I ain't livin' right But I ain't goin' out without a fight See, every time my eyes close I start sweatin' and blood starts comin' out my nose Is somebody watchin' the Ak'? But I don't know who it is, so I'm watchin' my back I can see him when I'm deep in the covers When I awake I don't see the motherfucker He owns a black hat like I own A black suit and a cane like my own Some might say, "Take a chill, B." But fuck that shit! There's a nigga tryin' to kill me I'm poppin' in the clip when the wind blows Every 20 seconds got me peepin' out my window Investigatin' the joint for traps Checkin' my telephone for taps I'm starin' at the woman on the corner It's fucked up when your mind's playin' tricks on ya You might also like[Verse 2: Willie D] I make big money, I drive big cars Everybody know me; it's like I'm a movie star But late at night, somethin' ain't right I feel I'm bein' tailed by the same sucker's headlights Is it that fool that I ran off the block? Or is it that nigga last week that I shot? Or is it the one I beat for 5,000 dollars? Thought he had 'caine, but it was Gold Medal flour Reached under my seat, grabbed my popper for the suckers Ain't no use to me lyin', I was scareder than a motherfucker Hooked a left into Popeye's and bailed out quick If it's goin' down, let's get this shit over with Here they come, just like I figured I got my hand on the motherfuckin' trigger What I saw'll make your ass start gigglin' Three blind, crippled and crazy senior citizens I live by the sword I take my boys everywhere I go because I'm paranoid I keep lookin' over my shoulder and peepin' around corners My mind is playin' tricks on me [Verse 3: Scarface] Day by day it's more impossible to cope I feel like I'm the one that's doin' dope Can't keep a steady hand, because I'm nervous Every Sunday morning I'm in service Prayin' for forgiveness And tryin' to find an exit out the business I know the Lord is lookin' at me But yet and still, it's hard for me to feel happy I often drift when I drive Havin' fatal thoughts of suicide Bang and get it over with And then I'm worry-free, but that's bullshit I got a little boy to look after And if I die, then my child'll be a bastard I had a woman down with me But to me it seemed like she was down to get me She helped me out in this shit But to me she was just another bitch Now she's back with her mother Now I'm realizing that I love her Now I'm feelin' lonely My mind is playin' tricks on me [Verse 4: Bushwick Bill] This year, Halloween fell on a weekend Me and Geto Boys are trick-or-treatin' Robbin' little kids for bags 'Til a lawman got behind our ass So we speeded up the pace Took a look back and he was right before our face He'd be in for a squabble, no doubt So I swung and hit the nigga in his mouth He was goin' down, we figured But this wasn't no ordinary nigga He stood about six or seven feet Now that's the nigga I be seein' in my sleep So we triple-teamed on him Droppin' them motherfuckin' B's on him The more I swung, the more blood flew Then he disappeared and my boys disappeared too Then I felt just like a fiend It wasn't even close to Halloween It was dark as fuck on the streets My hands were all bloody from punchin' on the concrete Goddamn, homie! My mind is playin' tricks on me96

Atmosphere
[Intro] They love the taste of blood Now I don't know what that means, but I know that I mean it Maybe they're as evil as they seem Or maybe I only look out the window when it's scenic Atmosphere finally made a good record Yeah right, that shit almost sounds convincing The last time I felt as sick and contradictive as this Was the last time we played a show in Cincy "Get real", they tell me If only they knew how real this life really gets They would stop acting like a silly bitch They would respect the cock whether or not they believed in it [Verse 1] Doesn't take much and that's messed up Because these people do a lot of simple shit to impress us While everyone was trying to out-do the last man I was just a ghost trying to catch some Ms. Pac-man Hello ma'am, would you be interested In some sexual positions and emotional investments See, I'm not insane, in fact I'm kind of rational When I be asking, "Yo where did all the passion go?" East coast, West coast, down South, Midwest Nowadays everybody knows how to get fresh Somebody give me a big yes God bless America, but she stole the B from Bless (and kept it) Now I'm too fucked up to dance So I'mma sit with my hand down the front of my pants You can't achieve your goals if you don't take that chance So go pry open that trunk and get those amps See Atmosphere LiveGet tickets as low as $34You might also like[Chorus] In the days of Kings and Queens I was a jester Treat me like a God or they treat me like a leper You see me move back and forth between both I'm trying to find a balance I'm trying to build a balance [Verse 2] So now I keep a close eye on my pets Because they make most of they moves off of instinct and scents It's eat, sleep, fuck, and self-defense So straight you can set your clocks and place bets Wait, let's prey on the blind, deaf, dumb, dead Hustle, maybe a couple will love what you said Emcees drag their feet across a big naked land With an empty bag of seed and a fake shake of hand Yeah, I got some last words, fuck all of ya'll Stop writing raps and go play volleyball Gotta journey the world in a hurry Cause my attorney didn't put enough girls on the jury Guilty of dropping these bombs in the city But I'm innocent, love is the motive, that's why I'm killing 'em Guilty of setting my fire in all fifty But I'm innocent, blame it on my equilibrium [Chorus] In the days of Kings and Queens I was a jester Treat me like a God or they treat me like a leper You see me move back and forth between both I'm trying to find a balance I'm trying to build a balance [Outro] Now all my friends are famous It's either one thing or another They all don't know what my name is Probably know both of my brothers The one is a hard workin' savior The other's a hard workin' soldier I'm just your next-door neighbor Working hard at tryin' to stay sober You wait for the car at the corner Pretend like you know what the plot is Won't quit till I hit California And make you my Golden State goddess11

A Life in the Day of Benjamin André (Incomplete)
OutKast
[Verse] I met you in a club in Atlanta, Georgia Said me and my homeboy were coming out with an album You looked at me like, "Yeah, nigga, right" But you gave me your number anyway, you were on the talcum Powder—how's about them oranges? Moved away from home to school with big plans By day, studied the history of music By night, just to pay for that shit, you'd dance To get your pants was a Mission Impo–ssible We were both the same age, but I Suppose, wasn't on the same page, but in The same book of life, so I'd page you when I felt you that were getting off of work Or either when you're on your way to school We started hanging like Ernie and Bert And in my idle head, I'm thinking, "Cool" Just when I think I'm going down your shirt You're hiking up your skirt now The events that followed had me volley If your hometown would be Heaven or Hell The angelic nastiness you possessed made you by far the best Therefore, hard to tell You'd drop me off by the Dungeon Never came in, but I knew that you were wondering "Now, are these niggas in this house up to something? Selling crack, sack by sack, so they could function?" W-W-Well, yes and no Yes, we were selling it, but no, it wasn't blow Cook it in the basement, then move it at a show Then grab the microphone, and everybody yelled, "Ho!" Meanwhile, the video starts playing BET, college radio, and a van Packed full of niggas with a blunt in their hand And one in they ear—you know what I'm saying, but I kept your number in my old phone Got a new chip-flip with the roam-roam So it took me a minute to retrieve seven digits But I promised I would call you when I got home, but When I got home, I never did By the time I did, heard that you'd had a kid By some nigga in Decatur who replied, "See you later" When he got the good news—that's life, shit Now, I'm nineteen with a Cadillac My nigga had a Lex with the gold pack Got a plaque, but I'm living with my Pop-Pop So I got a Glock and a LoJack Yeah, kinda fast for that fella in class who used to draw And never said much, 'cause half of what he saw Was so far from that place you wanna be That words only fucked it up more; follow me Are you starting to gather what I'm getting at? Now if I'm losing you, tell me, then I'll double back But keep in mind: At the time, "Keep it real" was the phrase Silly when said now, but those were the days When Spring Break and Daytona And Freakniks made you wanna Drop out of college and never go back Move to the South, but that ain't a Kodak Moment; on went myself and Big Bo— Well, you knew hm as "'Twan" That's right—you were around before this shit begun Well 'Twan had a daughter and Sorta was made to mature before the first tour We hit the road like Jack Laughed and cried and drive it back with some 'gnac Girls used to say, "Y'all talk funny. Y'all from the islands?" And I'd laugh, and they'd just keep smiling "No, I'm from Atlanta, baby; he from Savannah—maybe We should hook up and get tore up and then lay down; hey, we Gotta go because the bus is pulling out in thirty minutes" She's playing tennis, disturbing the tenants Fifteen-love, fit like glove Description is like fifteen doves In a jacuzzi catching the Holy Ghost Making one woozy in the head and comatose—agree? Enough about me—how's about you? How's the lil' kid? She was about two the last time we spoke I hadn't smoked or took a shot of drink 'Cause I'd start the second album off on another note; now— That note threw some niggas in the hood off But see, I'd balled out, and 'fore I'd fall out I'd slow my Lac down to a nice speed The brain was that fried egg, I might need New direction was apparent I was a child looking at the floor, staring So changing my style was like relief for the primitive beast Yes, I was on the rise, yeast was the street To make bread, never primary concern Just to hop on these beats and wait my turn I'd meet Muslims, gangstas, bitches, rastas And macaroni niggas: "impastas" So, on a trip to New York on some beeswax I get invited to a club where emcees at And on stage is a singer with some thing on her head Similar to the turban that I covered up my dreads with Which I was rocking at the time When I was going through them phases trying to find Anything that seemed real in the world Still searching, but I started liking this girl Now, you know her as Erykah "On & On" Badu Call Tyrone on the phone, "Why you— Do that girl like that, boy? You ought to be ashamed" The song wasn't about me, and that ain't my name Were young, in love; in short, we had fun No regrets, no abortion, had a son By the name of "Seven" And he's five; by the time I do this mix, he'll probably be six You do the 'rithmetic, me do the language arts Y'all stand against the wall blindfolded; we throw the darts To poke you in the heart and take you from the start To when "luxury transportation" meant a MARTA card Or either when your girlfriend that went to Mays' mama Or her daddy let her borrow the Benz, because she smart Or maybe if your neighbor does you a huge favor And he sells you that Rabbit that's been sitting in his yard You fix it up, you trick it out You give it rims, you give it bump You give it all your time because that's all you can think about And that's as far as I got (*music fades*) You might also like[Radio Interview] "And that's as far as I got, and where I wanted to go, knowing, the whole summer, that's all you could think about. Even though if you cut it off and start that bitch up, you need a jump, like you need and you want to grow, and you change all the time. So that Rabbit that you thought about that whole summer—the next summer, you didn't want that Rabbit no more. You wanted something bigger and better." "So the summer passed and now the Rabbit's old?" "Right... right, so now you want a Cadillac..."35

People shoutin', police pushin' the crowd And on the ground's a young soldier with meat hangin' out him Am I hallucinatin' off the hazin'? Or did I just see a nigga shoot another nigga's face in? It's a ugly nation, cops circle the block with mug shots Photograph pictures of suspect faces It's usually two or three niggas who innocent But if they lock the wrong ones up, then someone'll snitch A divide-and-fall strategy, they aren't fair I dig in my bag of weed that's covered with orange hair This Color Purple'll make Whoopi give me the pussy And Celie, Oprah and Danny Glover gots to feel me This is how I escape the madness Too much of anything'll hurt you, so my state of mind's all purple28

To all my killers and my hundred dollar billers To emo kids that got too many feelings He held the register open while he counted her change I was next in line which meant I was invisible From where I stood I could see that the till was full He didn't look the type to play superhero So I stepped forth and paid for my cigarettes Crept out the store's front door to chase a little breath Bangles in my head, shake the song off Another manic Monday night, its gonna be a long walk A car pulled up, a fixed up Cutlass A woman and a child climbed out and left it running They went inside of the deli, placed an order With the extra dollar fifty bottled water cause the daughter's picky When they came out mommy gave me a glance That said man can love an angel but he's got to take the chance Already knew the deal, I lit one up and walked So they got back in they Oldsmobile, belted up, and took off Thug love on the corner by the Walgreens Looking at me like I'm just another square Saltine As I get closer I notice they showing each other sketches Out of their notebooks, reminded me of my old roots See Atmosphere LiveGet tickets as low as $34You might also likeI walk past with a nod and a reminisce Swear to god hip hop and comic books was my genesis Respect the life and the fashions of the children It's the only culture I've got, exactly what we've been building All of a sudden I'm in front of some man No, he's a young'un, but he's got a gun in his hand He looks fifteen, he looks frantic, no, he looks afraid Immediately apprehensive 'til I heard him say "Do you want this? It's not mine, I promise I found it on my block in between a couple garages Didn't want to leave it for a child to stumble over I don't even know how to hold it" It was a thirty eight, the poor man's machete Held it in my hand, thinking damn man it's heavier than expected Wedged it behind my belt buckle Knowing that it's evil, even thought that I could smell trouble The extra strength felt weak But over there on the corner saw what I needed And proceeded to cross the street Put the heat in the mail box to lose it Figured that the post office knows what's best to do with it Mosey down the road, thinking about the old I used to roam this zone through two feet of snow Right here, this used to be a record shop I've gotten love, I've gotten drunk, I've gotten beat up in that parking lot I've had my Lake Street pride for 3 decades These alleyways, and these streetlights have seen my best days Before I was a germ learning how to misbehave All the way to the grave, south side is my resting place Took a right on Lyndale I'm getting near But then the road became empty and the people disappeared The clouds ran away, opened up the sky And one by one I watched every constellation die And there I was frozen, standing in my backyard Face to face, eye to eye, staring at the last star I should've known, walked all the way home To find that she wasn't here, I was still all alone No matter where I am, no matter what I do I'm always coming back home to you They can leave me for dead they can take away my true I'm always coming back home to you Through the lies and the sins that ride the wind that blew I'm always coming back home to you As sure as the life in the garden that you grew I'm always coming back home to you No matter where I am, no matter what I do I'm always coming back home to you If only I had known what you already knew I'm always coming back home to you From the heaven I've had to the hell I been through I'm always coming back home to you I'm always coming back home to you16

Eminem
[Intro] Aw, man, yeah You ever be in the club, man You get in a fight And people that you don't even know jump in? [Verse 1] You feel like you wanna hit somethin', your fist clenches, you're pissed You just wanna get someone with shit, jump on this You're 'bout to get your shit pushed in, I'm just inches away From splittin' your shit wide open, no stitches can save You'll die with your eyes open, you hope this isn't the way You end up going out, but I guess it just is, I'm afraid Razors, scissors and blades make Jason say, "Isn't this great?" On-lookers participate in this ass-kicking debate That's startin' to take place in the middle of the street Little did you know there'd be an all-out brawl soon as you heard this beat Emergency personnel rush to the murder scene But it's too late, it's absolute pandemonium, whisked away In an ambulance is your fate, nothing nobody told you When you left the house today could've made you anticipate Such an ass-whipping, okay, 'til the anger dissipates You'll get punched in the face, reciprocate, come on! (Woo!) [Chorus] So what the deal, ridaz? Would you excuse me while I feel my nuts? My balls are feeling a mighty big now I might just have to dig down and pull 'em through my britches I said, so what the deal, ridaz? Would you excuse me while I feel my nuts? My balls are feeling a mighty big now I might just have to dig down and pull 'em through my britches You might also like[Verse 2] You step in the place with enough misplaced anger to catch a case Anxious to get in some shit, got your gangstas all with your ladies You better go get your mace 'cause Shady said so You may wanna pick up the radio and bang it against your face That's how fuckin' rowdy you feel, now do you still wanna grill? If you don't wanna get the shit beat out of you, chill 'Cause if you doubt me, you will, yeah, got me a pill, found me a thrill I got a couple of drinks here, and I'm bound to refill (Woo) Girl, howdy, how do you feel, ma? This cocksucker did not spill my drink, oh, hell nah He must be trying to kill my buzz I will not budge, so what the deal, ridaz? Now here they all come and they got your back in, like, two seconds flat And that's probably a record, yeah, you wasn't expecting that 'Cause they want in on the act, there's a Cognac bottle We snuck it in 'cause the beer that they was serving here was only tap I'm bitin', I fight dirty, you might get kicked in the nuts You're frightened like, "This guy might hurt me" You're quite certain he's nuts, I've hit myself in the face harder Play smarter, you may start her over, you need a chainsaw to Dig your way out or go powder your nose, pussy The louder you yell, the harder I slap the shit outta you hoes You set it off, faggot, so now how do you 'spose We settle it? Hit me in the nose, we'll see how it goes [Chorus] So what the deal, ridaz? Would you excuse me while I feel my nuts? My balls are feeling a mighty big now I might just have to dig down and pull 'em through my britches I said, so what the deal, ridaz? Would you excuse me while I feel my nuts? My balls are feeling a mighty big now I might just have to dig down and pull 'em through my britches [Verse 3] It's sheer hustle, I bob, weave, deflate your beer muscles We're tusslin', the crowd's startin' to cheer us, and Adrenaline's rushin' through us just like a geyser gushin' Too much Budweiser in my blood, I'm stranglin' your windpipe for nothin' (Woo!) My signature's ligature marks, look at you all Big with your remarks 'til I swing an icepick at your heart At least that's what it feels like when I pick ya apart And dig at ya, and break you down like the bitch that you are The predicament starts when I throw a brick at your car The pain inflicted upon you is so sick, it's bizarre Shit, this is almost ridiculous, addictive as far As havin' me wanna rip out your fricking ligaments— arr! You hit like a bitch, you scratch me with your nails for that You catch an open hand slap like a female like bap In fact, I'll have the crowd smackin' you themselves Where's D12? I don't feel like doing this by myself, come on! [Chorus] So, what the deal ridaz? Would you excuse me while I feel my nuts? My balls are feeling a mighty big now I might just have to dig down and pull 'em through my britches I said, so what the deal, ridaz? Would you excuse me while I feel my nuts? My balls are feeling a mighty big now I might just have to dig down and pull 'em through my britches [Outro] Yeah, what the deal? I'm feeling hard as hell right now, homie I almost feel Invincible and shit Ayy, Dre You got me feelin' like I can't be touched right now, fool, haha! I'm unstoppable, damn30

[Verse 1: Slug] Enough to hold you to the brightest of lights To place you dangerously close to that sun Enough to acknowledge the flaws you can't ignore And recognize the cause of what's done is done More than enough to put my name behind my ideals And neglect my logic twice daily Enough to keep me looking for my Lucy in the sky with gems When I remember how you used to call me baby Enough to look in my mirror with detest For every tear you shed regardless of why you wept Enough to curse any man who can't appreciate the depth Of the ocean I swam till I ran out of breath [Hook] I love you, don't ever fucking question that That's why we'll probably never get along If I was better at finding the right words to say I wouldn't need to write these motherfucking songs I love you, I love you (faded) Never, don't ever fucking question that Don't ever fucking question that [Verse 2: Slug] Riding the public transit, I study the blank stares To answer my questions of how and why I got so many grey hairs I take care of the nervous that runs through my extension cord And I reflect on that reoccurring dream where we met the Lord Single file lines, to give her a pound one at a time But when I faced her, I attempted to embrace her, she looked so fine I awokened from my sleep before her bodyguard had a chance to beat me To submission and I still walk with my religion I watched the children scurry in circles around a two-way mirror Worrying about which side of the glass projects the reflection clearer I hear the whispers of the wind trying to get me to grin Gassing me up about the love that I plucked and I've been stuck within For every eclipse that stares at me From the other side of a paper cup of espresso I light a match beneath a kettle And for every set of lips that become attached and equipped with that program To seek success, I bleed my ethics out a slow drip I know a man who met a woman, don't remember where Big beautiful eyes and light brown hair She was from the 'burbs, he was from the south side of the city This was back when Franklin Avenue was still pretty Two different worlds apart, but the world is just a small town We all know how people like to get down Here we go, Aquarius, Pisces Feel the flow of the fluid as I swim through it to free my soul Push shoved to came, without the glove, numbed the pain The magic from up above what it does for the brain See Atmosphere LiveGet tickets as low as $34You might also likeMake the love, paint the picture, write the song The player met a virgin, made a Virgo, named him Sean Make the love, paint the picture, write the song The player met a virgin, made a Virgo, named him Sean Make the love, paint the picture, and write that song Till the break of dawn [Hook] I love you, don't ever fucking question that That's why we'll probably never get along If I was better at finding the right words to say I wouldn't need to write these motherfucking songs8

[Intro] "Hey, hey what are you doing over there?" "I... I'm just standing, I..." "Come here, come here. What are you doing?" "I'm just waiting for... You know he's... He might come out." "Left you standing in the rain all wet." "Wait, I just wanna say..." "No, no, who are you waiting for?" "A guy I met at the show." "Who, Slug? You're waiting for fucking Slug?" "No! I mean no, uhh, yeah." "Oh no, you're... You're fucking kidding me." "He's so hot." (unintelligable) "Fucking Slug? Oh my God, he is so fucking ugly." [Verse 1] I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp I live life like the captain of a sinking ship The one thing that I can guarantee I'm like a stepping razor, I suggest you stay fair with me Been paying dues for a decade plus Before that I was just another face on the bus Tappin' my foot, to the beat on the radio Dreaming 'bout the mic and the money and the ladies Oh mom, I promise I'm gonna be large Some day I'ma stop trying to borrow your car Gonna go far, with charisma and skill Until they put my face on a million dollar bill Atmosphere, it's just a ten letter word Discretion is the name of my cement-feathered bird And if you didn't hear, then fuck what others heard I think you got the sickness, I suggest you get it cured Caught up in the mix of a bottle full of fix I'mma hobble down the street till I reach Knob Creek It's not that I don't like you, I just don't want to speak You fucking freak, now keep your days out my week The world keeps a balance, through mathematics Defined by whatever you've added and subtracted I'm pushin' on the hammer to trigger the brain Embrace how I live, 'cause God loves ugly See Atmosphere LiveGet tickets as low as $34You might also like[Chorus] God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly [Verse 2] Once upon a time in Minneapolis, yo I damn near had to steal the show I stepped on the stage - "Who is it?" My name's Slug, I've come to kill a couple minutes And what's up with the way that everybody gathers around Each other, so they can steal each others' sound If it's all about getting down, with the get down How long I gotta wait for these fools to sit down? Appears more clear in its simplest form Nobody sees tears when you're standin' in the storm Abandonin' the norm, and handlin' the harvest Measurin' the worth by the depth of the hardship I welcome all the hatred you can aim at my name I held onto the sacred ways of how to play the game When the soldiers started runnin' short on rations I began tappin' the egg to spark the hatchin' Make it happen, and take this captain to the gallows I keep steering us into an area that's shallow Talking to my shadow, he advised me not to worry Said, I should plant my tree and let it rise out of the fury So give me some light, a little love and some liquid I'ma creep through the night and put a plug in the spigot And when the water grows, and the dam starts to overflow I'll float atop the flood holdin' on to my ugly [Chorus] God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly [Verse 3] Why scream, when you can lose yourself inside the widescreen Let life be a bowl of melted ice cream Or be the deer that's caught in my high beams I'm rolling with the brights on Scared stiff, reality is just too much to bear with Paranoid, walking around, careless No wonder you're in love with your therapist Go to sleep my little time bomb [Chorus] God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly God loves ugly, God loves-God loves ugly33
