Sometimes, I bite my tongue so hard
I'm swallowing my blood for days
It's good to speak your mind and get things out
But do it with a little tact and a little grace
Oh, so think things over Before you speak
Sometimes, it's just better to say nothing
And turn the other cheek
Are you hearing what you say?
And, if you listen, does that get in the way?
In the way of people say...?
Oh, I don't understand the process
That goes on in your head
You're supposed to think before you speak
And think about what are my consequences
Oh, so think it over before you speak
'Cause sometimes it's just better
To say nothing and turn the other cheek
Are you hearing what you say?
And, if you listen, does that get in the way?
Does it get in the way?
In the way of what people say...?

You Put A Spell On Me
When Version is playing – we see the dancehall

So long
I know It's been a long, long time
We've been together for a while
But, now, I think it's time
We both agree
To set each other free
It's hard
So very hard to do
I feel a pain deep in my heart for you
And there will always be
A special part of you that's inside of me
Oh, comfortable
Is all that we have become
And comfortable is only good
For the ones that know what they want

Oh, as for us, I know that we have got a lot of thinking to do
I know you've got to think about
What you want and if I want that, too
It's strange because we're tired of arguing
About the things
The things that make us different
The things we loved before
Are all the things that we can't take no more

Oh, comfortable
Is all that we have become
And comfortable is only good
For the ones that know what they want
I know that we were really good friends before
And we can be good friends once more

But what need to do
Is take some you out of me
And some me out of you

Oh, comfortable
is all that we have become
And comfortable is only good
For the ones that know what they want

BRING IT ON (Clean)

Underneath your feet
And we runnin like there's only seconds left
Feel the breath

I can't believe how far we raised
From Dirty blocks & dark hallways
Opposite of tenements
We livin in the top percent
Of hustlin their dreams
Livin way above our means
Now we formulate the team
Hit em like a lazer beam
Infinite abilities
Flowin like Pheidippides
Outside of parentheses
Genius in facilities
Our options are infinity
Founded independently
The path is undertaken

To the top we elevated
We don't stop & we created
In a new stream a new team
Shine like the ever present presence
Of the spotlight

Smash perception ain't no question
You're the best of them

Gettin all this oxygen (its medicine)
A catalyst of power people
Comin from the underground
Many styles all the citizens
From all around the planet ascending in a way that you can never take for granted
(It's a piece of pace a past of place)
I pass the praise the pastor makes
The timing of the time it takes
To raise up all the youth
That's the proof of the positivity & true humility
Passed on these progressions
In the cyphers & the sessions
True knowledge comes from everyone
& everything surrounding
We pounding up the bricks
& in our footsteps is evidence of providence
The sky scrapes takes a little building at a time
Now you over-stand the rhyme
We can all together climb
You get yours & I get mine
Never been a better time
To come together (each of us can teach one)
Never been a better time
I think I see the sign

CHORUS

OUTRO
Keep your head raised
As your mind stays
High above the fray
When you need to get up & stay up
Just nod your head & meditate
On this verbal word play

We rock hip hop
On every single block
Let's get together now & raise it to the top

INVINCIBLE

Feel power running through my veins
Paradigm shift whole perspective change
Tech upgrade to expand my brain
Systems surge to new heights and maintain
Energy flow like the superhighway
Step to the block gonna do it my way
Scan the whole hood up, down and sideways
Coast is clear it appears to be my day

Roll out to begin my mission
No doubt it's the right decision
X-Ray to enhance my vision
Minds eye is clear and omniscient
Got strength like a force of nature
This time Im the instigator
Time's now, can't wait for later
Competition dominator

Blast off like a Houston rocket
Big gun gotta load and lock it
No army could even stop it
So raw no force could block it
Rearrange any power structure
Manifest and change a whole culture
Just one way to satisfaction
Unleash the beast and take action
No time to waste so take action

I FEEL INVINCIBLE, INVINCIBLE
Got strength like a force of nature
I FEEL INVINCIBLE, INVINCIBLE
This time I'm the instigator
I FEEL INVINCIBLE, INVINCIBLE
Step to the block and I do it my way
I FEEL INVINCIBLE, INVINCIBLE I'M INVINCIBLE

New forces at work inside me
New eyes to advise and guide me
New friends to disguise and hide me
through new days that will test and try me
Act fast with command to justice
"Just Ice" like the age that crushed us
Supercharged strength fighting for us
Every battle emerge victorious

No doubt that the vibe is catching
Right now is the time for action
Feel amped with the fierce connection
Each move is a chain reaction
Power surging through every aspect
Radiate too much to mask it
Rocket fuel ignite and blast it
Step to this and might get your ass kicked

Shift up to the higher station
The master of every situation
In an instant the winner's chosen
With the force so fierce and explosive
Outlast and defeat corruption
Overpower like fire eruption
Just one way to satisfaction
Unleash the beast and take action
No time to waste so take action

And it's no way that you can try to stop it,
I'm so high right now, higher than a cockpit,

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

Cold hands
We are at war
Take the money from his pocket
That's what's in store

You hold me down
You will see
Hundred pairs of eyes
Staring from trees

You fool me once, shame on me
Oh, you say, that we're free

Cold heart
You left me now with nothing
New start
Time to prove that we are something
Wish

White eyes
We are at war
Change a dollar into nothing
That's what's in store

You crossed a line that you couldn't see
And now a thousand artists
Stand tall with me

You fool me once, shame on me
Oh, you set, set me free

Cold heart
You left me now with nothing
New start
Time to prove that we are something
Woah

Wake wake up in the morn
Wake up in the morning
Wake wake up in the morn
Wake up in the morning

Demons cut the path I've chosen
Terrors better left unspoken

CHORUS:
Mercy on my soul
Mercy on my soul
Mercy on my soul
I ain't no angel

Fever can't stop the cold blood running
Evil, it just keeps on coming

CHORUS

No running
No hiding
It's too late
For rewiring

CHORUS

"Verse 1
Tell me how you must be feeling
Out there on the edge
Living one day at a time
Fear and doubt
When you're crossing on the ocean of your life

If you're living with your hands untied
You can move beyond your paradigm

Chorus
But you're light years away
And it's never been so far from you
Light years away
Will you find a way to reach your destination?

Verse 2
Here and now
You can witness the creation of your mind
Reaching out
If we brought it all together we would find
The questions fade
The answers forming

If you're living with your hands untied
You can move beyond your paradigm

Chorus
But you're light years away
And it's never been so far from you
Light years away
Will you find a way to reach your destination?"

One More Try

There's nothing I can do
To change the way
That you feel about me

You're telling me to choose
'cause it's so hard for you
To say 'it's over'

WHAT I TELL MYSELF

This broken shell
That you call my life
Has destroyed itself
A shattered crystal knife

I fall down like an old woman
I break both my knees
Radiate my mind of poison
Stop it someone please

CHORUS:
One more reason I tell myself
I'll get even like no one else
That's what I tell myself
It's what I tell myself
It's what I tell myself

Visions from my eyes
In pieces on the ground
Wasted on deaf ears
Trapped or silent sounds

I scratch truth like full confessions
Imprinted on my skin
If I could only learn my lesson
I wouldn't be where I've been

CHORUS

Awaiting my time I have no illusions
Changing my mind to help myself
I know from my kind the only solution
Is goodbye

Try to steal away
To hollow sleepless nights
Like a starving slave
Too tired or sick to fight

I keep secret hiding places
Cushions in my cage
Some excuse while time erases
My dignity and rage

CHORUS

This Is War

Chorus

Her favorite baby boy is soon her dearly departed

Now you suckas messed around and took food off my kids table
So you've made me resurrect an old fable

Serve and collectin' stacks

Everything you've built
Everything thing you thought you owned... IS MINE!!

Nowhere to hide!!

SHOCK THE SYSTEM

A soldier on the warpath
Hurricane firestorm, looking for a bloodbath
Like a samurai, lethal
'Cause in this world of hate, you fight evil with evil
No fear touches the heart of stone
Born cold and alone into the great unknown
Lookin' for fights just to strike back
Walkin' the streets all night for the right one to attack

Chorus:
Like thieves this mind torture consumes this hollow soul
Dark demons hide secrets, deep shadows taking toll
Brain burning, heart freezing, thoughts screaming with desire
Death calls like sweet sleep to rest in the grave of fire

Fierce fury in the face of violence
Where sick torture's the only guidance
Feel horror at the means that's drastic
Will this warrior break off the ill tactics
Cooperation – the sole solution
No choice but to give in to the delusion
Whisper please with a hollow breath
What life is left will have you wishing for death

Death calls...

Blood pounds as he scans the doorways
Lookin' for ways to escape the maze
Dark shadows make their approach like ghosts
Smote the chosen that come too close
Death calls like a gunshot
Blood burns hot, he can't stop, but why not
"Bout to explode. Here's the mission:
Crack the code, bring a shock to the system

Chorus:
Like thieves this mind torture consumes this hollow soul
Dark demons hide secrets, deep shadows taking toll
Brain burning, heart freezing, thoughts screaming with desire
Death calls like sweet sleep to rest in the grave of fire

Public Gangsta 1

Chorus
It's all over the news - wanted dead or alive
But they forgot only the strong survive
My reign of terror has just begun

They can't catch me - they'll always fail
I'll never spend the rest of my life in jail
My reign of terror has just begun
I'm Public Gangsta number one!

1st Verse
I'm a drug sellin larcenists
End up on my list I promise you I'll twist
Bullet holes burnin'
The police squad squirmin'
They look at me as vermin
Keep they stomachs churnin

Homey, I'm goin for mine
All my ladies work the corner
Man I'm on the grind

Cause untimely demises
I'm deeply despised
They wanna see my end
I see the look in dey eyes

It's a war out here and I control an army
Of predicate felons
It's so alarming

Sellin ki's and trees
I do what I please
It takes a certified G to bring a city to its knees
I don't care
You don't like boy then say somethin'
SAY SOMETHIN!
DO SOMETHIN!

2nd Verse
They'll never take me back alive
I got 2 strikes
Spent half my life deprived

Man I'm cheefin' in my 'Lac
Slangin lb's of crack
Addin' bills to my stack
Houses full of sacks

Neighborhood stores have to pay me fo sho
The baby G's don't test me
They already know

So I'm no the one
Creep up on ya slow and collapse ya lung

When the pump gets ta pumpin' everybody gets ta jumpin'

Boy ya feel me!
