Post your favorite song lyrics, and why you like them! I still have to think about mine first...

Okay... right now, my favorite song lyrics is Korn's "Thoughtless"
Here they are and the explanation:

Thoughtless

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
Pushing all the mercy down, down, down
I wanna see you try to take a swing at me
Come on, gonna put you on the ground, ground, ground

Why are you trying to make fun of me?
You think it's funny?
What the **** you think it's doing to me?
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying with your dirty ass in front of me

All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
I'm above you, smiling at you, drown, drown, drown
I wanna kill and rape you the way you raped me
And I'll pull the trigger
And you're down, down, down

Why are you trying to make fun of me?
You think it's funny?
What the **** you think it's doing to me?
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying with your dirty ass in front of me

All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming

All my friends are gone, they died (gonna take you down)
They all screamed, and cried (gonna take you down)

I'm never (?) back against the wall
Gonna take you down

All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming
All of my hate cannot be found
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground
I will see you screaming


A lot of Korn's messages are good. "Thoughtless" has thought provoking lyrics. The video for this song shows the point of that song quite well. It makes me think about what happened at Columbine (sp?), and other school shootings and how the people commiting the crimes felt. That song in particular makes me wanna give those bullies a piece of my fist. But its supposed to do that I guess, and by doing that, people that listen to Korn and are bullies might realize their wrong doings and what the consequences might be. Maybe I'm thinking about their song's lyrics too much, but never-the-less, they still send a good message. The lead singer is kind of a geek but that probably contributes to their good lyrics. The down side is if some one listens to these lyrics, and gets bullied a lot would think about doing some of these things, but they would probably be smart enough to think about what they are doing before they do it.

PS: Thanks to Rumple for posting those lyrics.
 
EXIT - U2
You know he got the cure
You know he went astray
He used to stay awake
To drive the dreams he had away
He wanted to believe
In the hands of love


His head it felt heavy
As he cut across the land
A dog started crying
Like a broken hearted man
At the howling wind
At the howling wind


He went deeper into black
Deeper into white
Could see the stars shining
Like nails in the night
He felt the healing
Healing, healing
Healing hands of love
Like the stars shiny shiny
From above


Hand in the pocket
Finger on the steel
The pistol weighed heavy
His heart he could feel
Was beating, beating
Beating, beating oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love
Oh my love


My love


Saw the hands that build
Can also pull down


The hands of love

_________________________

The lyrics are **** without the music - the music makes the song completely spooky and worth listening to.
 
*blows the cobwebs away*


Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then.

That's a great line.
 
Can you feel that?

Ah sh:censored:!
ooh ah ah ah ah
ohhh ah ah ah ah

Drowning deep in my sea of loathing,
Broken your servant I kneel
(will you give in to me?)
It seems what's left of my human side is slowly changing in me
(will you give in to me?)
Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes
Violently it changes
There is no turning back now,
you've woken up the demon in me.

[Chorus]
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate and let it flow into me.
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up, come on get down with the sickness
You f:censored: get up, come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift that has been given to me.


I can see inside you the sickness is rising
Don't try to deny what you feel.
(will you give in to me?)
It seems that all that was good has died
and is decaying in me.
(will you give in to me?)
It seems you're having some trouble
In dealing with these changes
Living with these changes.
Oh, no. The world is a scary place
Now that you've woken up the demon in me.

Chorus

And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream


No mommy, don't do it again
Don't do it again
I'll be a good boy
I'll be a good boy, I promise
No mommy don't hit me
Why did you have to hit me like that, mommy?
Dont do it, you're hurting me
Why did you have to be such a b:censored:
Why don't you,
Why don't you f:censored: off and die
Why can't you just f:censored: off and die
Why can't you just leave here and die
Never stick your hand in my face again b:censored:
F:censored: YOU
I don't need this sh:censored:
You stupid sadistic abusive f:censored: 🤬
How would you like to see how it feels mommy
Here it comes, get ready to die

Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate and let it flow into me.
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up, come on get down with the sickness
You f:censored: get up, come on get down with the sickness
Madness has now come over me!

It's awesome.
 
Lamb of God - Blood Junkie

A shallow little jackal of a man posing as a hawk.
Conniving opportunist
Lease the blade the gun the bomb in the name of justice.
A violent panacea for what ails the nation
In advancement for the pig.
You'll not wrest the truth from my hands
Eyes never closed clarity.
Clamped down in a grip so tight on ordinary horror.
Peering through a curtain of blood.
Retribution or vengeance it matters not which
As long as the pig stays on top of the ladder of bone his father has built.
Ashes to ashes to the dust
Eaten spiced with ambivalence.
The nation swallows it all whole
Weakened by their collective neck in the noose.
Commerce brings war
Jihad has come to both sides.
Eye for an eye fire for fire
Raining death as the towers crumble.
This will never end.
Left without a choice
By the fiscal elite
War is set in motion by higher powers.
A pissing contest for the unknown.
Left bankrupt we all die inside.
As a couple jumps hand in hand to their death.
Wrapped in swaddling lies and laid in a dumpster
Spoon fed **** doesn't even turn their stomachs.
Gaping mouths yawn for more abuse
Someone needs to tip the nest.
The pig ascends
As I sink deeper
Seething misanthropic
Waiting for my death.


This song says basically everything but Go **** yourself Bush.
 
Mnemic - Deathbox

I'm in a state of despair
Nothing seems to fit my mind
And although I can't be there
I still know that there's a place for someone just like me
Will I ever wake up
Wake up to see the box I'm in
Will I ever stand up
I'm standing on the edge of inability

And though I'm trying it still penetrates my body
All these demons that I carry deep inside
The changing faces forces me to leave the traces
Of the stranger things that are growing in my mind

Oh I know that I have
Done this once or twice before
The names are still a blur
I'm arrogantly close to falling of the edge
I know I'm not insane
Though my head hurts on the inside
The images disturb me
I know I'm not insane, I'm not what they call me

They're no good - still surrounding me
Forcing my actions upon me
The blood just paints my world
They're no good - still surrounding me
Forcing my actions upon me
They're forcing my actions upon my deathbox

And though I'm trying it still penetrates my body
All these demons that I carry deep inside
The changing faces forces me to leave the traces
Of the stranger things that are growing in my mind

Now will I ever wake up
Wake up to see the box I'm in
Will I ever stand up
I'm standing on the edge of inability
Now is this a failure
My project kill is rigth awake
I'm all burned out from pressure
My thoughts have brought me to my knees
Awake in pain

They're no good - still surrounding me
Forcing my actions upon me
The blood just paints my world
They're no good - still surrounding me
Forcing my actions upon me
They're forcing my actions upon my deathbox

I love it! I am addicted to the lyrics and the music and it is the frustration I have inside about life.
 
"She left me no chance at redemption,
No further exemption.
Just a big red "Goodbye" in Lipstick on the wall,
Goodbye says it all"

From Blackhawk's first hit back in the mid 90's
 
If you don't know what this song is, you really need to get out more:

Oh, let the sun bet down upon my face;
Stars to fill my dream.
I am a traveller of time and space
To be where I have been.
To sit with elders of the gentlre race,
This world has seldom seen.
They talk of days for which they sit and wait;
All will be revealed.

Talk and song from tongues of litling grace;
Sounds caress my ear
But not a word I heard could relay,
The story was quite clear.

Ooh, baby, I've been flying;
Mama, there ain't no denyin'
Ooh, yeah I've been flying,
Mama, there ain't no denyin'
No denyin'.

All I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand
As I try to scan this wasted land
Trying to find
Trying to find where I've been.

Oh, the pilot of the storm that leaves no trace,
Like thoughts inside a dream
You've the map that led me to that place,
Yellow desert stream.
My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon,
I will return again
Sure as the dust that blows high in June,
When moving through Kashmir.

Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails
Across the sea of years
With no provision but an open face,
Along the straits of fears.

Ooh, baby, I've been flying;
Mama, there ain't no denyin'
Ooh, yeah I've been flying,
Mama, there ain't no denyin'
No denyin'.

When I'm on, when I'm on my way, yeah
When I fear, when I think of ways to stay, yeah

Ooh, yeah, yeah,
Ooh, yeah, yeah,
When I'm down'
Ooh, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah yeah,
Well I'm down, so down
Ooh, my baby,
Ooh, my baby,
Let me take you there

Let me take you there
Let me take you there.
 
Lamb of God - As The Palaces Burn

The fiends have gagged a generation of pacified fools
Bound by our greed a nation enslaved as corporate tools.
Arise and race the legacy of their lies
To realize that this in itself is an ascension
Towards the day we revolt.
As the seeds you've cast away take hold
War will be born.
Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun
We'll dance as the palaces burn.
A shot gun blast into the face of deceit
You'll gain your just reward.
We'll not rest until the purge is complete
You will reap what you've sown.
My redemption lies in your demise.
In such a world as this does one dare to think for himself?
The paradox of power and peace will destroy itself
To know the truth and live in fear of no man.
To realize that this in itself is an ascension
Toward the day we revolt.
As the seeds you've cast away take hold
War will be born.
Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun
We'll dance as the palaces burn.
My redemption lies in your demise.
Rejoice, the age of the fall has begun.
We'll dance as the palaces burn.
 
Motley Crue - Kickstart My Heart

When I get high
I get high on speed
Top fuel funny car's
A drug for me
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart
Always got the cops
Coming after me
Custom built bike doing 103
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart

(Pre-Chorus)
Ooh, are you ready girls?
Ooh, are you ready now?

(Chorus)
Ooh, yeh
Kickstart my heart
Give it a start
Ooh, yeh, baby
Ooh, yeh
Kickstart my heart
Hope it never stops
Ooh, yeh, baby

Skydive naked
From an aeroplane
Or a lady with a
Body from outerspace
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart

Say I got trouble
Trouble in my eyes
I'm just looking for
Another good time
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

When we started this band
All we needed, needed was a laugh
Years gone by...I'd say we've kicked some ass
(F:censored: you!)
When I'm enraged
Or hittin' the stage
Adrenalin rushing
Through my veins
And I'd say we're still kickin' all that mother ****in' ass
(F:censored: you!)

Ooo, ahh, kickstart my heart
I hope it never stops
And to think, we did all of this...
To rock

(Chorus)

(Solo)

(Chorus)

Ok boys, let's rock the house

Kickstart my heart
 
I'm not going to post entire songs, because nobody will really read them anyways. Here's a couple lines I really like. The alliteration in these is awesome.

From Echo & the Bunnymen - I'm sick of the song that sorrow sings

From Mark Everret of Eels - Smoke stack's spittin' black soot into the sunny skies

Some other memorable lines...

Counting Crows - Get right to the heart of matters//it's the heart that matters more

Is where you are is where you meant to be?

There's so many little one-liners that I've had in my Facebook/AIM profile over the years. It changes every week almost.
 
Learn to Fly-Foo Fighters
Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution
Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing and watched the last one die
I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for complication
Looking cause I'm tired of lying ( trying)
Make my way back home when I learn to fly
I think I'm done nursing the patience
I can wait one night
I'd give it all away if you give me one last try
We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life
Run and tell the angels that everything is alright..
Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone
Try and make this life my own
 
Candlemass - Epistle No. 81

Not convinced all the lyrics are correct. There are a hundred web pages with this lyric on it but I reckon they all copied eachother because the lyrics are identical right down to the typos! :crazy:

Hard to understand when the LP came with lyrics anyway but I don't have that anymore so this will have to do..

Mark how our shadow, mark Movits mon fre're
one small darkness encloses
How gold and purple that shovel there
to rags and rubbish disposes
Charon beckons from tumultous waves
then trice this ancient digger of graves
for thee ne're grapeskin shall glister
wherefore my Movits come help me to raise
a gravestone over our sister
Even deserous and modest abode
under the sighing branches
where time and death, a marriage forebode
'twixt beauty and ugliness ashes
To thee ne're jealousy findeth her way
nor happiness footstep, swift to stray
filleth amid these barrows
e'en enmity armed, as thou seest this day
piously breaketh her arrow
The little bell echoes the great bells groan
roved in the door the precentor
noisome with quiristers prayerful moan
blesses those, who enter
The way to this templed city of tombs
climbs amid roses yellowing blossoms
fragments of mouldering briers
till black-clad each mourner, his station assumes
bows there deeply in tears

Reason for post: No, this isn't my favourite song of all time. What made this lyric stand out for me was that it took me half an hour with a dictionary to understand what the 🤬 they were talking about! When I was 17 and had time on my hands, that was cool.
 
A great line in "Have a Cigar" by Pink Floyd:

"The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think...oh by the way, which one's Pink?

It's irony and how it has multiple meanings make it great.
 
Octavarium by Dream Theater

I. Someone Like Him

I never wanted to become someone like him so secure
Content to live each day just like the last
I was sure I knew that
This was not for me
And I wanted so much more
Far Beyond what I could see
So I swore that I'd
Never be someone like him

So many years have passed
Since I proclaimed
My independence
My mission
My aim
And my vision
So secure
Content to live each day like it's my last
It's wonderful to know
That I could be
Something more than what I dreamed
Far beyond what I could see
Still I swear that I'm
Missing out this time

As far as I could tell
There's nothing more I need
But still I ask myself
Could this be everything
Then all I swore
That I would never be was now
So suddenly
The only thing
I wanted
To become
To be someone just like him

II. Medicate (Awakening)

A Doctor sitting next to me
He asks me how I feel
Not sure I understand his questioning
He says I've been away a while
But thinks he has cured me
From a state of catatonic sleep

For 30 years
Where have I been
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

Medicate me
Infiltrate me
Side effects appear
As my conscience slips away

Medicate me
Science failing
Conscience fading fast
Can't you stop what's happening

A higher dosage he prescribes
But there's no guarantee
I feel it starting to take over me
I tell him not to be ashamed
There's no one who's to blame
A second shot
A brief awakening

I feel the relapse
Can't break free
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

III. Full Circle
sailing on the seven seize the day tripper diem's ready
jack the ripper owens wilson phillips and my supper's ready
lucy in the sky with diamond dave's not here I come to save the
day for nightmare cinema show me the way to get back home again

Running forward
Failing back
Spinning round and round
Looking outward
Reaching in
Scream without a sound

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

flying off the handle with careful with
that axe eugene gene the dance machine
messiah light my fire gabba gabba
hey hey my my generation's home again

Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Looking outward
Reaching in
Scream without a sound

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

IV. Intervals

Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath
Remove all obstacles from our path

Asking questions
Search for clues
The answer's been right in front of you

Try to break through
Long to connect
Fall on deaf ears and failed muted breath

Loyalty, trust, faith and desire
Carries love through each darkest fire

Tortured Insanity
A smothering hell
Try to escape but to no avail

The calls of admirers
Who claim they adore
Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more

Innocent victims of merciless crimes
Fall prey to some madmen's impulsive designs

Step after step
We try controlling our fate
When we finally start living it has become too late

Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium

V. Razor's Edge
We move in circles
Balanced all the while
On a gleaming razor's edge

A perfect sphere
Colliding with our fate
This story ends where it began
 
Floating down, through the clouds...
Memories come rushing up to meet me now.
In the space between the heavens, and in the corner of some foreign field,
I had a dream.

Good-bye Max. Good-bye Ma.
After the service when you're walking slowly to the car,
And the silver in her hair, shines in the cold November air...
You hear the tolling bell, and touch the silk in your lapel.
And as the tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band,
You take her frail hand...
And hold on to the dream!

A place to stay,
Enough to eat.
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street,
Where you can speak out loud, about your doubts and fears.
And what's more no-one ever disappears,
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.
You can relax, on both sides of the tracks,
And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control.
And everyone has recourse to the law,
And no-one kills the children anymore.

Night after night!
Going round and round my brain...
His dream...is driving me insane!

In the corner of some foreign field,
The gunner sleeps tonight.
What's done is done...
We cannot just write off his final scene...

Take heed of the dream...


-Pink Floyd (The Gunner's Dream)
 
Geto Boys (Bushwick Bill) - Dirty Bitch

You can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear,
gotta start with the right material, to generate a useful idea,
In other words, you can't turn a ho into a housewife,
try, bitch will make you sock her in the mouth twice,
It started out beautiful, but she was playing possum,
to me, you was just a ****, but our relationship blossomed,
got attached to your kids, I loved them like my own,
.......I loved them like my own
referred to your daughter as my daughter,
your son as my son,
called you my wife, even if it was common law,
never saw a better creature in my life...
how could the one who stole my heart make me reach for my knife,
(why you reachin' for your knife?)
Cuz I gonna stab that bitch!!!
(what if they take your freedom bill?)
They can have that ****.
now she wanna be friends... ain't that a bitch.
**** you bitch, I hate you bitch
I wouldn't care if you burned in a fire,
crashed in a plane, or got hit by a mother-****ing train,
you make my life a living hell, the sun's out but it's dark,
your the devil, all you need is a pitchfork.
I'm too short to take shorts,
I'm having second thoughts- the rides so scary, I gotta get off.
I wish I never met you ho...
I wanna hang you from a ****in' cliff, and let go, you dirty bitch.

Why you wanna bring me down, why you wanna bring me down,
you dirty bitch
Why you wanna bring me down, why you wanna bring me down,
you dirty bitch

I once believed I could save you, emotions was squandered,
now go back to that ****ing rock you crawled from under,
I did more for your kids, then they sorry-ass biological father ever had,
thats why they call me dad,
your own mama used to tell me not to **** with your ass,
I messed around and got you pregnant, now I'm stuck with your ass,
I gave you everything I had, didn't have to be forced,
why the **** you want to take a ***** to court...
You dirty bitch
Tell me this, who paid the medical expense, when you kids were sick,
Suck dick you ****ing whore!!
Burned my car and my clothes, like you were Angela Basset,
I left town, you moved out, all you left was a mattress.
Now I'm hearing that you had another man all the while,
When I see you I'm a beat your ass so go ahead and file,
I can tell by your tone you think it's funny bitch,
where the **** is my money bitch, you ain't running ****,
I'll hook you up, like your kidneys fail,
You think I give a **** about sitting in jail,
You think I don't know the Ghetto streets are bumpy,
and your the reason them *****s tried to jump me.
At first I was cool with the split,
but you keep, calling my new bitch; being messy and ****
you can't stand to see me happy, with or without you,
had to rain on my parade, it was all a cherade,
Ya trifflin' slut, ain't worth a cigarette butt,
shoulda left you where I found you, waiting on a bus,
wanna drag you to a field and chop you up to the bone,
you ain't worth the ****ing ground I walk on you dirty bitch

Why you wanna bring me down, why you wanna bring me down,
you dirty bitch
Why you wanna bring me down, why you wanna bring me down,
you dirty bitch
Why you wanna bring me down, why you wanna bring me down,
you dirty bitch
Why you wanna bring me down, why you wanna bring me down,
you dirty bitch
 
-waits for someone to post Cannibal Corpse lyrics-

Anyway, my choice would have to be DJ Hixxy - Music Is My First Love.
It just expresses my exact feelings towards music and what it means to me.

I'm taking no religion
no religion's taking me
now there's only one thing
and this one thing sets me free
listening to my music
the escape to keep me sane
with an overloaded bass-line
which goes straight to my brain
I push up on the volume
'til its crystal clear and loud
my body starts to tingle
just by listening to the sound
nothing else can do the same
it hits the spot so fast
music is my first love
it will always be my last

Can't explain the freedom
and the feeling from the bass
something just comes over me
which nothing can replace
you tune in you close your eyes
I'm living in a dream
hypnotised by something
you've heard but never seen
the rhythm is a mystery
the magic I can tell
the boost the bass the melody
just gets me in the spell
some loves in life
will come and go
but one will never pass
'cause music is my first love
it will always be my last
 
Dear Jenny by The Dresden Dolls.

Boys wear overcoats in heat like this to keep themselves from showing.
Girls fill out prescriptions for the tricks that keep their hearts from growing.
Specialists review the year in tears and call for drastic measures:
"Send them to resorts for boys and girls to get their wits together!"

Sad, but true—the facts of life are bound to get you down.
So what's the use, dear Jenny? Anyway, the world is pretty...

Ashley talks to astronauts back home by way of fax transmission.
Andy gets a new tattoo each time he gets back bathroom privelege.
Weary, oh so drearily, we wave our flags into the camera.
Amber goes berserk completely; she's been here since last December.

Sad, but true—the truth can turn your smile to a frown.
So what's the use, dear Jenny? Anyway, the world is pretty
upside-down...

The rates are better in the summer.
Looks like dear Jenny's doing better...

Back at home, the broadcast warning bounces off of an empty table.
Jenny asks the astronauts to sleep with her behind the stable.
Christmas hasn't been the same since Dad put in the central heating—
checks you before bedtime with a battery to keep your new heart beating.

And the world might turn a million times around before
they tell you, Jenny. Anyway, the world is pretty—world is pretty happy—world is pretty happy

Sometimes they let strangers in and other times they check their records;
When they check out in the morning, Dad puts out the lie detectors.
Jenny prays to gods she's never heard of for a special warning.
All the walls stay dead as Jenny's heart is
but shes still observing.

Sad, but true—the high-gloss paint won't tell you what to do.
So what's the use, dear jenny? Anyway,
the world is happy—
world is happy—
world is happy without you...

The rates are better in the summer....
Looks like old Jenny's doing better...
 
ASESINO !!

Diles cuántos son
Diles dónde están

No quieres perdón
Quiéres perdición

Diles cuántos son
Diles dónde están

A mi pinche tio
Lo heche al rio
En un lago frio
Heche a todos tus niños

Diles cuántos son
Diles donde están

No quieres perdón
Quiéres perdición

Diles cuántos son
Diles dónde están

A las monjas del pueblo
Enterradas en el cerro
A mi pinche viejo
Fué tragado por mi perro.

Antes de que mueras dinos la verdad
Amarrado estás a la silla electrica

Hay por la frontera hallas 100 mojadas muertas
Abajo de mi piso encuentas a 35
A mi me vale verga, lo hice y no hay pena
Y regresaré reencarnado pa´ matarte.
 
"Dead Presidents (Part 1)" by Jay - Z ( the song that started the Nas vs Jay-Z feud)

[Ja -Z]
Rock on
Roc-A-Fella y'all

[Chorus - Nas]
Presidents to represent me
I'm out for Presidents to represent me [x2]
I'm out for Dead Presidents to represent me

[Jay-Z]
Well I was fit that wonderama ****
Me and my conglomerate
Shall remain anonymous
Caught up in the finest ****
Live out by dreams until my heart gives out
And while we crave you know exactly what the ****'s about
**** y'all mean? Handlin' since a teen I dish out
Like the point-guard off your favorite team without doubt
My life ain't rosy but I roll with it
My mind was fine 'till the dough hit it
And told me that the mo' did it
And now it's closer **** and so I said it
I blow a digit on a dimin' in a minute but no *******
Watch how I'm walkin' cause even the thoroughest ******* be knockin',
Tryin' to strike a bargain,
Hopin' that they might get pardoned
**** on me boy we got me pins and needles
And my cerebral be's the wickedess evil
Thoughts that this boughter feed you
Feed back in a game so deep fien's can catch ya
Freeze off my knee cap can y'all believe that
Got the city drinkin' Crystal raise up the fee
Rappers going broke tryin' to keep up wit me
My rise the riches surprise the ********
Think harder you know this ***** Jay-Z Shawn Carter
G.S. to **** up, three years to******
Watch me shine like a brightly be gets to******
All rhymers forget like Alzheimer's
Small timers I said it
I'm addressing all drama torture

[Chorus][Nas]
I'm out for Presidents to represent me [x3]
I'm out for Dead Presidents to represent me
[Repeat x1]

[Ja -Z]
So sick of ******
I want money like Cosby who wouldn't
It's this kind of talk that make me think
You probably ain't got no pudding
****** got them kinda dreams from jail
You in the streets *****
Make your move get your get your mail
****** are coastin' the S.L. but can't post bail
**** are roast the L.
But scared to throw your toast well
I am here to tell *******it ain't all swell
There's heaven then there's hell *******
One day your cruisin' in ya seven
Next day your sweatin' forgetin' your lies
Alibis ain't matchin' up, ***** catchin' up
Hit with the rico, they repo your vehicle
Everything was all good just a week ago
Bout to start *****' ain't you
Ready to start snitchin' ain't you
I forgive your weak***hustlin' just ain't you
Aside from the fast cars
Hunnies that shake they **** at bars
You know you wouldn't be involved
With the underworld dealers, carriers and mac-miller's
East-coast bodiers, west-coast cap peelers
Little monkey ***** turn gorilla's
Stopped in the station filled up on noctane
And now they not sane, and not playin'
That goes without sayin'
Slangin' day in and day out
With money playin' then they play you out
Tryin' to escape my own mind
Lurkin' the enemy representin' infinite
With presidencies you know

[Chorus][Nas]
Dead Presidents to represent me [x4]
I'm our for presidents to represent me [x7]
I'm our for Dead Presidents to represent me
 
Best of You - Foo Fighters

I've got another confession to make!
I'm your fool...
Everyone's got their chains to break!
Holding you...

Were you born to resist, or be abused
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Are you gone and on to someone new

I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose..
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use...
I was too weak to give in, too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
and I refuse.

Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.

Has someone taken your faith - it's real
The pain you feel
Your trust - you must confess
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
(Ahhhhhhhh!!!)

(ohhhhhhhh oh oh... Ohhhhh oh oh!
ohhhhhhhh oh oh... OHHHHHHH!!!)

Has someone taken you faith - it's real!
The pain you feel!
The Life! The Love! You die to heal
The hope, that stops, the broken hearts!
Your trust, you must confess!

Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.

I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
Im getting tired of startin' again
somewhere new
Wouldn't wanna resist, or be abused...
I swear I'll never give in
and I refuse...

Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Has someone taken you faith - it's real!
The pain you feel! Your trust, You must confess
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
(Ahhhhhhhohhhhhhhhhhhhh!)

Numb - U2

Don't move
Don't talk out of time
Don't think
Don't worry
Everything's just fine
Just fine

Don't grab
Don't clutch
Don't hope for too much
Don't breathe
Don't achieve
Or grieve without leave

Don't check
Just balance on the fence
Don't answer
Don't ask
Don't try and make sense

Don't whisper
Don't talk
Don't run if you can walk
Don't cheat, compete
Don't miss the one beat

Don't travel by train
Don't eat
Don't spill
Don't piss in the drain
Don't make a will

Don't fill out any forms
Don't compensate
Don't cower
Don't crawl
Don't come around late
Don't hover at the gate

Don't take it on board
Don't fall on your sword
Just play another chord
If you feel you're getting bored


enough

Don't change your brand
Don't listen to the band
Don't gape
get
Don't ape
Don't change your shape
Have another grape

enough


Don't plead
Don't bridle
Don't shackle
Don't grind
Don't curve
Don't swerve
Lie, die, serve
Don't theorize, realise, polarise
Chance, dance,dismiss, apologise

get


enough
Don't spy
Don't lie
Don't try
Imply
Detain
Explain
Start again

Don't triumph
Don't coax
Don't cling
Don't hoax
Don't freak
Peak
Don't leak
Don't speak

Don't project
Don't connect
Protect
Don't expect
Suggest

Don't project
Don't connect
Protect
Don't expect

Don't struggle
Don't jerk
Don't collar
Don't work
Don't wish
Don't fish
Don't teach
Don't reach

Don't borrow
enough
Don't break
Don't fence
Don't steal
Don't pass
Don't press
Don't try
Don't feel

Don't touch
Don't dive
Don't suffer
Don't rhyme
Don't fantasize
Don't rise
Don't lie
Don't project
Don't connect
