My, my, my, yes, I must admit
That I have never knew love like this before
And I adore everything about you
I do mean every part of
For meeting someone this beautiful, have mercy
I wanna kiss ya father
You’re the kinda girl I wanna get closer to
Become the most to you like love is supposed to do
Cuz I fell straight into your trap
And since they say love is blind
I’m the Ray Charles of rap
And I’m waiting for you to put me in your mix
Because ya got my nose open like a jar of Vicks
I’ll be your king, baby, you can be my queen
Uh, let’s stay together like Al Green because

CHORUS
All my love is all I have
And my dreams are very special
All my life I looked for you
And today my dreams come true
You need me and I need you
Love in us is very special
Things you seem to do devine
You look straight into my eyes
Oh, our love was meant to be
Cuz our souls touch tenderly
Love is life and life is living very special

Well I must admit that you know how to treat a woman
Don’t stop your love, like Keith Sweat, keep it comin’
And our relationship won’t ever get dull
Because you’re always on my mind even more than my own skull
You’re always givin’ me respect and chivalry
And I can’t wait for your enticing delivery
Staying together is a must
Those tropicana drinks don’t blend as good as us
We were made for each other, meant for one another
Neither one of us needs another lover
And just so it can stay that way
Yo, I’m on your side like Jennifer Holiday because

CHORUS

I talk the macho talk and keep my real feelings hidden
But what about that “pimpin’ ain’t easy stuff”?
Aw, I was just kiddin’
Cuz if we unite, baby, I’d do ya right
Well I hope you meant that mushy stuff you told Barry White
Because I think I know you well enough to be understood
Well let’s talk about sex, babe
No, not that good
But Spinderella, yes, Miss, I’ll still persist
Well since you put it like that Daddy then we can do this

CHORUS

I wanna give ya my love
Cuz you’re the only one I’m thinking of
I wanna give my love
Cuz you’re the only one I’m thinking of
I wanna give ya my love
Cuz you’re the only one I’m thinking of

She said, “I spent eight years in California.
That’s the reason why I talk the way I do.
But I’ve hear how Southern men respect the ladies, and I’d like to meet a
gentleman like you.”

Well, I spent most of my life in Alabama.
That’s the reason why I talk the way I do.
And I’ve always had this thing for sun-tanned ladies, and I’d really like to
spend some time with you.
And we walked on the beach till early morning.
And we watched as the sun came up again.
And somehow we both shared the feelin’ that we’d just made a very special
friend.

Tomorrow I’ll go back to Alabama, and you’ll fly from Atlanta to L.A.And I’ll
get back to takin’ care of bus’ness, and you’ll go back to starrin’ on the
stage.
But we’ll think of the beach come Monday morning, when both of us get back to
push and shove.
And somehow we will always remember the night we shared a very special love.

I spent most of my life in Alabama.
That’s the reason why I talk the way I do.
I know we shared a very special friendship the night we made a very special
love.

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?
Remember how she said that
We could meet again
Some sunny day?
Vera! Vera!
What has become of you?
Does anybody else in here
Feel the way I do?

Come on, baby, don’t you wanna go
Way down south, talkin’ ’bout Mexico

Straight through the jungle, out to the sea
We’ll have some fun if you fly away with me
Like some old movie in black and white
We’ll fall in love in the middle of the night

Chorus:
Me and you, down in Veracruz
Do what you wanna do, down in Veracruz

Come on, baby, don’t you wanna come
In the town, people movin’ to the drums

Rosa’s Cantina, it never stops
Drinkin’ cerveza, people party ’til they drop
Forget the laundry, forget the rain
We’ll get to heaven on the seven-thirty plane

Chorus 2x

Tu piensas que yo no podre vivir sin ti
Tu piensas no podra sobrevivir
Que nada me queda, si no estas junto a mi
Veras que no es asi

Tu piensas que jamas sere feliz sin ti
Que destruiste al fin mi corazon
Que no voy a descubrir la forma de volver atras
Sin ti, yo se que si

Estribillo:

Ya lo veras
No necesito a nadie mas
Podre resistir
Voy a poder seguir
Lo hare por mi
Sera mi gloria personal
Nadie, ni tu, me la podra quitar
Veras

Acepta la verdad, no llorare por ti
Yo se que asi sera, podre salir
Voy a saltar sin red, y no voy a caer
Sera mejor sin ti

(estribillo)

Veras
You think I won’t be able to live without you
You think: she won’t be able to survive
That I have nothing left if you’re not by my side
You’ll see, it’s not like that

You think I’ll never be happy without you
That finally you destroyed my heart
That I won’t find my way back
Without you, I know I will

Chorus:

You will see
I don’t need anyone else
I will resist
I’ll manage to go on
I’ll do it for myself
It will be my personal glory
No one, not even you, can take it from me
You’ll see

Accept the truth, I will not cry for you
I know it’ll be so, I will pull through
I’ll jump without a net, and I’m not going to fall
It will be better without you

(chorus)

You’ll see

Now what you hear is not a test
This is a verbal gunfight like the wild wild west
And if you got beef get it off your chest my son
Because the 2na’s gonna show you how the west was won

[Akil]
We rolled up to the spot about a half past noon
Jumped from the horse, slid into the saloon
Walkin in the spot I heard the musicman stop
Danced up to the bar, a double snapple on the rocks

[Chali 2na]
Now mr. bartender told me strangers get flack (Really black?)
But they’ll be fuckin with the black billy jack
Feel the mack, ??? you can never even got the chance bro
We move the crowd like we were ?????

[Akil]
And my drink he never passed it, he got real sarcastic (Fat Bastard)
You them niggas from the crew called Jurassic
Talkin mad shit as his face showed a frown
You niggas better leave before the sun go down

[CHORUS 1]
Cuz uh, we be the king of, the verbal gunslingers
You better bring a casket, a preacher and a singer nigga
We be the kings of the ones that brought static
I use my rhymes like a glock automatic

[Both]
Ay yo, somethin lookin fishy yo I think we better watch
Yo, I’d make sure you got your trigger uncocked
Yo I’m sayin real niggas always deal a gun blast
Get the horse, kiss the girl, grab the mic and let’s dash

[Chali 2na]
Cuz uh, we be the king of, the verbal gunslingers
You better bring a casket, a preacher and a singer nigga
Cuz when the lead locks on it don’t let ya
I’m not a grifter more like a high-plains drifter

[akil]
And as the plot kickened, thickened, niggas started shovin me
Muggin me, tuggin me, into the good bad and the ugly
Troubly doubly I grabbed a glass full of bubbly
Publicly rubbin me I told my nigga Chali cover me

[Chali 2na]
Yo, I gotcha back and I’m buckin I’m lookin back and I’m duckin
I’m tryin to get us the FUCK out the place
Brothas who was harassin we was doin the blastin
Yo suit go get us the bucks out the safe

CHORUS 1

Dead men never tell about the things they saw
The stakes is what can make a man become an outlaw
Hey, we be the peeps who keep the past alive
2na fish, and Akil from the Jurassic 5

[Akil]
Ay yo peeps has been grand, but understand we in a hurry
Emergency currency, many niggas that wanna murder me
Heard of me
And 2na fish ??? capacity keepin the west blazin like Sundance and Butch Cassidy

[Chali 2na]
Man, we need some type of plan cuz peeps is skanless
Thinkin that they can make a man hush with the ambush
My man bust til you crack the safe
Yo back is safe and we gon take the back escape

[Both]
Now if you don’t know who we are, I suggest you better hiiiide
Or look down the devil’s eye, sing a lullaby
And the picture on my poster make my left side my best side

[Chali 2na]
I’m on my last two rounds I let a thousand free
I heard the bartender called for the cavalry
Now they outside, waitin on my ????
Verbal gunslinger forever and proud to be

Cuz uh, we be the king of, the verbal gunslinger
And now they got the casket, the preacher and a singer cuz they
????? at the ?????
Stay alive yo!
Rhymin with our back to the wall, tryin to survive the fall
Cuz dead men never tell about the things they saw
The stakes is what can make a man become an outlaw
Hey, we be them peeps that keep the past alive
It’s 2na fish, and Akil, from the Jurassic 5

[Big Pun]
Yo, Terror Squad, Pete Rock collabo’
From git-go, yo yo

Aiyyo it’s such a shame
all these dick riders tryin to corrupt the game
But what it bring, nuttin but pain
and one in your fuckin brain
Ain’t nuttin changed since the album I’m still whylin
I’m still violent I’ve been waitin for this moment
like Phil Collins, for all my life I’ve been trifer than trifer
Hyper than hype, when fightin to fight
It’s like, tonight is the night
And I ain’t even tryin to let a nigga slide
I’ve been dyin to get a gat
I dared to try now prepare to die
I rush your crib like Jehovah’s Witness, blow up any
soldiers, infants, hold up, did you notice my heroic entrance?
I’m so relentless in this field of rap, everything is real in fact
Fully backed by bullies who be peelin caps
I sack the rapper like li-nebacker, play my rhyme backwards
you can hear the Devil speak his mind with fine graphics
Things get drastic, Express for my plastic
I pack clips, between my nuts and my fat dick

Chorus: Pete Rock

Grab ahold cause you never heard a
verbal murder like this
Cash comes before soul, so watch your shit
Every cat wanna be enormous
Plottin on the next one
Murder one (repeat 2X)

[Noreaga]
Aiyyo my whole circle, make you feel it like The Color Purple
My niggaz comin through and still hurt you
Wipe y’all Kleenex cats who stay full of germs
We hit Fifth Ave, while y’all still hit Stern’s
Don’t really care bout y’all, really hear bout y’all
Yo on our side we do our thing, play the cut
let the phone ring, Pete Rock connect team
From M-V to L-C, my thugs straight thuggin it
Snatchin niggaz out of the booth, unpluggin it
Strange Fruit, my niggaz live to shoot
Yo it’s a strange thing, a nigga never had a suit
Yo so bust what happen, remember the unknown’s a clap-man
Cat stackin, move out the hood that’s in Manhattan
Got big headed, misleaded, then dreaded
Yo the beef deaded, his whole squad afraid to set it
Yo I heard son, son is rockin iceberg Dunn
Got up out the hood, wouldn’t believe that, this cat would
Head mad swollen, flamboyant this man golden
Yo the Senator, crime sinister, John Dillinger
Better respect my words or I’m the minister
What??

“Verbally I catch bodies”
“Let’s seperate the men from the boys” -> Guru
“Verbal attack” -> Cappadon
“Big Pun” -> Punisher, “Noreaga” -> Nore, “Pete Rock”
“Common s-s-s-sSense” -> Com

[Common]
Yo, we just begun the story, Com Pun and Nore
Look to the sun for glory as time runs before me
I’m after the day of judgment I’m still before the
jury, explainin why I was in a gun orgy
He was FUCKIN wit me, I ain’t no duckin emcee
With the knowledge there’s a little thug blood in me
This stud bumped into me, beef it was fin’ to be
My Appetite for Destruction is finnicky
He was an industry type, influenced by magazines and snipes
Rocked Adidas but he had no stripes
I could tell in high school that he had no fights
Hold dick better than he hold mics, he spiked his punchlines
with current events, called for backup
like one time when he heard it was Sense
that deliver words with intents to kill
Whether the hip-hop type, country rapper, or big wheel
I peeled some raps back, that peeled his cap back
Fucker thought I was Abstract, now his life is backtracked
In the center of the party his crew identified the body
Left him signin the wait-list sayin, “I can’t take this
fake shit” (echoes)

Yo..
Yo!
Big Pun, Noreaga, Com Sense for the nine eight
Get it straight

The man in 119 takes his tea alone. Mornings we all rise to wireless Verdi cries. I’m hearing opera through the door. The souls of men and women, impassioned all. Their voices climb and fall; battle trumpets call. I fill the bath and climb inside, singing.
He will not touch their pastry but every day they bring him more. Gold from the breakfast tray, I steal them all away and then go and eat them on the shore.
I draw a jackal-headed woman in the sand, sing of a lover’s fate sealed by jealous hate then wash my hand in the sea. With just three days more I’d have just about learned the entire score to Aida.
Holidays must end as you know. All is memory taken home with me: the opera, the stolen tea, the sand drawing, the verging sea, all years ago.

Take me to the shore
And wrap me in a blind tomorrow
I won’t fight no more
And I won’t scream
Maybe we’ll be washed away
Maybe I just need a holiday

This time we’ll get
A room with a view and a velvet painting
And this time we’ll stay inside
Until the lights go down
Over the palm trees and the sand

Buy me the blue sky
And wrap me in clouds of blasphemy
In the end I won’t ask why
You can do what you want with me
Maybe we’ll be thrown away
Maybe we just need a holiday

This time we’ll get
A room with a view and a velvet painting
And this time we’ll stay inside
Until the lights come up
And everything’s vermilion

Take me to the shore
And throw me into the water
I won’t fight no more
No, I won’t say a thing

This time we’ll get
A room with a view and a velvet painting
And this time we’ll stay inside
Until the lights come up
And everything’s vermilion

Every Name Is My Name
I made a movie about the end of the world
It was 12 seconds long and it didn’t have a plot
It just happens
And that’s why it’s in black and white
The characters don’t talk or move around
They just stare up at the sky, frozen
And the light, the light is numb, the light is off
The light is just a thumb nail sketch of God
God…
Somewhere, someone is crying
The camera sweeps over a desolate street
Holding a mother and her child
The kid is calm and she is shaking
The camera passes into the sun
Come at last to be undone
Panicking, she tries to run
The kid is calm
And then the credits roll
And every name is my name

Staring up at stars
From the back seat of a stationwagon
Carving the night
Trees keep marching by
Light poles blur into a stream
Blazing laser beams

All…
These…
Stars….

My thoughts are trivial pursuits
My heart’s a bomb that’s been defused
What now?

There’s no more use for me
I’m wasting energy
Muscles are weaklings
Thoughts just defeat me
Numbness is effortless
I could get used to this

Driving through Vermont
Overwhelmed by the insignificance
My conscience was my crutch
For a heightened existence
This other wordliness

These…
Schoolboy…
Lies….

I’ve been deprived reality
Brought up by holy ghosts and saints
What now?

I’m the delinquent here
I’m the contagious one
This heart is hopeless
I feel the numbness
All Hail The Atheist
I could get used to this
I could get used to this
I could get used to this
I could get used to this
