"Whole house freeze!"
It was a Thursday I stepped to the club, there she was Draped in a burgundy dress, silhouetted superbly Curved indeed, she started staring in my direction Luring and urging seductively, body language instructing me I offered her a drink instead she took a cup of tea And then I lied about my luxury lifestyle I said "So who you be? You looking kind of tight, gal I would love to see you in a nightgown" She said "They call me the Dragon Queen and I come from Tibet I'm calm in the face of pressure and you'll never see me sweat I've come to your country in search of a lost Scroll That contains directions to a hidden village comprised of gold" I looked at her confused and said "But why have you told me this?" She said the description that I fit Was that of the Chosen One who'd go beyond Then slipped a concoction in my drink Immediately set my consciousness adrift? Now I'm in that zone dwelling, I woke in a warehouse tied to a chair With an abundance of flair surrounding me in a circular angle Glared up at the Dragon Queen's lair, wasn't imagining a thing Her steps on the stairs had a magic Gleam, glowed brightly To prepare me for my journey a Sword was hovering towards me Plus garlic from the Keepers of the Gate who bore all the secrets and take Care of trespassers, but at last it's prophesied that I would gain Access to a cultural dynasty buried and seize and capture the Scroll Massive helicopters patrolled the rooftops, strapped in Began travelling into the darkness, knew not of what awaited Thought of a way to get out of it, just then the bottom gave way I began falling and gave it ten seconds, pulled the cord on my parachute Landed surrounded by a herd of wild barracudas, lions The sounds of the wild kingdom piercing like a siren Was I entering near the mere mortal life span's end? Defiantly I stood boldly as they began closing in And time seemed to be moving rapidly just then? "Whole house freeze!" Just then I pulled the Sword and somehow It affected all the creatures as they stepped back and bowed And the same Glow that I seen in the Sword I seen in the eyes of the Lion Who began leading me in a specific direction as if trying to tell me something Just over the horizon, the same creatures who had been described Appeared in statue form but their eyes scoped And as I approached the gate they began to break open and cried "AFTER YEARS WE HAVE FINALLY BEEN AWAKENED!" The assault was on, I got knocked to the ground by one Shocked in an unorthodox form boxing Throwing an abnormal proportion of body blows, karate chops And drop kicks, plunged struggling deeper into the swamp Then I grabbed my Sword, the garlic put it around my neck Saw that it was draining all of their energy and then with a swing Off with their heads! The gates slowly and mysteriously opened So curiously I moseyed in with intensity focusing on my objective Spider webs the size of king-size beds Fell into a secret passage not knowing to where it lead Just then the same Light beamed brightly and in the distance At that instance, lo and behold, the hidden Scroll! And just as I thought my mission was over I could feel the Dragon Queen breathing heavily over my shoulder As she began to transform and metamorphosise She took on an assortment of legs, arms, heads and eyes And sprouted two horns and began to breathe fire So once again I grabbed my trusty Sword but to my astonishment She burned it to a crisp turned and grasped the Scroll And exited much faster than secreted gas, I'm gasping Clasp full of flames cast in my direction I saw my whole life flash and the possibility of death And a casket passed into the ground, pound for pound, astounding How could I survive and last another round inside this madness? "Whole house freeze!" |

I just keep moving on... (moving on...)
I just keep moving on... (moving on...) time and time, a brother asks why the rhyme is not laced with a gangsta touch I said "Simply because I don't live that way still kickin' them rhymes rugged and rough" "But that won't sell, cause you gotta keep it real so that we can feel where you're coming from Because these streets is ill so if you ain't killing niggas in rhymes your whole sound's just bubble gum" I said "I won't contribute to genocide; I'd rather try to cultivate the inner side and try to evolve the frustrated ghetto mind The devil and his army never been a friend of mine" "But niggas don't wanna hear that shit" said the brother who was obviously totally misled and yelled out "murder murder, kill, murder" instilled in the influential (walks ?) of our kids' heads shallow days, you never wanna let a brother be a brother fully inner to the outer caught up in all them hollow nights can't escape cause everywhere that I look people front, and it just ain't right (repeat) I said "Don't you know the powers that be are using people as pawns, devouring we until they see us all gone and outta the scene" and as I passed the chronic, he said "look at where I be, I tried to get a job for real, but all the homies (hit licks?) and rob and steal and keep fat pockets caught in a rut to catch ground this way's in, plus who could you trust?" I said "I'm all about protecting mine, but neglecting minds for getting left behind. Why don't you change your environment?" He said "This is all I know, plus my fam's all that I got, I can't go" I said "You gotta make it for the fams" "Damn," he said "I didn't make the ghetto, The ghetto made the man" I said "You're more than just that," shook his hand, said "Damn, you gotta find a way to break the devil's master plan, peace" shallow days, you never wanna let a brother be a brother fully inner to the outer caught up in all them hollow nights can't escape cause everywhere that I look people front, and it just ain't right (repeat) The word "peace" is just an expression used to say bye when it's time to jet and them red black and green medallions was all just part of the trend, I guess Hardly ever them around brothers' necks no more Instead of that gold (gats ?) inspiring gangstas and macks who at the young age of four be seeing more drama than war veterans instead of learning God's laws and hip-hop is ((all the ways ?) till we enlist that ??) to express how we be feeling about this and that but music does reflect life and kids look up to what you're portraying and mimic what you act like It's time for a new day an era in rap, conscious styles, makin' them aware of the happenings but their ears seem more steered towards self-annihilation so then they might laugh and write this off, like I'm out here just blowing wind, maybe label us soft or unreal, something they just can't feel, while they yell "murder murder murder, kill kill kill" I just keep movin' on (moving on ...) I just keep movin' on (moving on ...) shallow days / hollow nights (repeat) |

[Erinn Anova] (Chorus)
Come along and reap I need my song We're climbin' over Beneath the sea March on Time is almost gone It's all in me No maybe [Gift Of Gab] Here we go again Slip into my conscience, come along an take in A story bout a battle, in this corner, Satan Cunning, baffling, and jumping into half the drink And suddenly disasters and catastrophe And acting unrationally Reacting savagely To passionately Bask in everlasting like escapes from just what its creating Jeopardizin' love Look at all the people that you took advantage of See your hypnotized Rom be gone, take another cup In consequences lurk While the reaper got your shirt size Nigga wack up Times overdue for the birth of a power that the universe grew from (Chorus 2X) [Gift Of Gab] You search for the answers outside Refocus causin' time and time again, backslide You've noticed times before the presence of that "I" But never did submit to it and let it apply Whatever be his will in this present life time Or essence like mine Know the blessings you might find If you let your higher power inside Emerge and apply to every single thing in your balance You will truly find Who you really are Die and become reborn When God is present in your life than you can come reap on And ain't a storm that you can't weather You got a purpose you was born to create Destiny is waitin' for you Arms open, take with ya Knowledge bestowed by the great giver Lakes, rivers Mountains and steams Now reality's the dream wraitha No more searchin' for truth that was always wit' cha It had to hit ya through the struggle and the turmoil Ya soul was planted and it sprouted out above soil And let the sun shine freely down At times it looked like it wouldn't But the plant came to flourish Now it's standin' on solid ground (Chorus 2X) [Lateef] Sun rises like water up in my eyes I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide Tryna to keep my head above the ed if I could be [Lateef & Erinn Anova] The sun rises like water up in my eyes I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide Tryna to keep my head up Above the ed if I could be Least If I may (Chorus 4X) |

As the world keeps spinning, we live these days Dollar bill done drove the whole world crazy While sitting on the porch letting ganja blaze Never hesitate a moment to enhance my phrase Since I needed that escape I take my pull Seen the thugs on the corner trying to act all cool Pretty much out of character I look right through, their transparent exterior You in my book getting written and I'm the derriere Thought you was peeping me but I was aware of ya You peep my ill expressions, how I just glare about Trying to trace my inner world and my whereabouts Well try on, try on I'm watching everything that's going down And it ain't nothing that I ain't been around The same ghetto but a different town Weeell, I remember growing up in the P-a-c It was a whole lot of love in my family I had clothes on my back and shoes on my feet Times we didn't have a lot but that was fine with me In good times and even bad times Whether rainy, grey sky or the sunshine Life was so much simpler, I didn't realise it then But time has definitely made me a wiser man [Chorus 2x: Erinn Anova] The world keeps turning round And time just keeps on moving Sunday morning in the church just singing a song Mama gave much praise cause her soul was strong When I was young I used to do lots of thangs was wrong I never thought about till one day she was gone Now my daddy passed on about a year before Reminiscing as I glance at the fishing pole But these things gotta happen so we all can grow And now they spirits much freer than they was befo' So fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on Cause there's angels in the midst And they're guiding and watching me every day And even though at times I let it get to me Just a little and I go astray We keep marching on and on Young militants will watch and now we're growing With kids of their own, as it all unfolds As the world keeps turning on, the world keeps turning on [Chorus 4x] This one goes out to family, y'all come first G-A-B, Chief Xcel, Blackalicious, out |

(Sleep)
(chorus) The hazy days go to nights returning on and on The eye in the sky that don't lie be watching all y'all The troublesome time filled anxieties just keep crawling on And a dream world line up in your mind just keep on calling y'all The shining lights of stages after the show are faded The crowd is gone away, and now the dawning day Gives way to creatures lurking, can hear the crickets chirping Only the owls can see for this is when they start their prey The homeless ask for quarters for shelter and some water Say "sorry not today" and turn and walk away The busy street is empty whistling winds are blowing gently Listening intently to all of the things they have to say A day of work completed a night of rest is needed Almost done read a book but eyelids to heavy to read it The fireplace is kindling, snug with your queen and building About the victories tomorrow's gonna bring your way (chorus) (I hope that what I have written will be of some assistance) Gazing outside the window the sunny skies dwindle And now it's full of stars a hurling comet soars While during the body slumber the soul begins to wander To dream dimensions see the inner conscious doesn't pause Keeps moving where it's bound to say now I lay me down to After that stretch and yawn energy left and gone The sandman's on your shoulder whispering in your ear he told you Let all your problems go tonight I'm rapping hear my song A day of work completed a night of rest is needed Almost done read a book but eyelids to heavy to read it The fireplace is kindling snug with your queen and building About the victories tomorrow's gonna bring your way (chorus x2) (Sleep) |
