LYRICS

COPE:(Sean Hernandez, (c) (p) 2000)
Maybe if you thought of all the shit that youve still got it might not seem so bad and what can I do?Its like theres nothing I can say and trying is still getting us nowhere maybe its just time you grew up. Maybe this is just too frustrating for you. Right now it's in your head theres so much to believe in letting your fears consume your time and rule your actions while youre waiting for something to guide you and show you a better way, and the only one who can help you is youre own self. And so you push shit to the back of your mind not for long itll get the best of you I swear and youll act all cool like theres nothing wrong but thats bullshit thought repression if this simple chord regression cant help you nothing will. Malajusted I guess I prefer undecided youre so sure that were so blessed and only some god knows what were doing on this earth blindly assuming higher reason at least Im smart enough to know that I dont know enought to base my life on someone elses tainted stories So COPE deal with it fate and faith cant help you if your hopeless.
 
Thank God for the Mourning After:
(Sean Hernandez, (c)(p) 2001)
 Hold on to all you've got in this world, cause it might not be there waiting for you when everything's said and done. But there's one thing you must remember, they say we're in charge while were down here so go ahead and have your fun.
(CHORUS: Cuase this life cures, but it kills, and it hurts, lord it will, when they're gone and when their memory becomes another faded scene from your past so you ask no you'd beg for just one last, but they're gone and so you fell face first you know you've got to get back up)
Dont know if I cant stand another dream when you're still here with me, Dont get me wrong I just might not be able to take that news again when I wake up, Left me unprepared sometimes I wish you were still with me, Got me praying for that afterlife but trembling when thinking twice
(Repeat CHORUS)
All these popular people sporting their styles and trends end up wasting their lives trying to impress 10,000 friends, I keep my fingers crossed because I know how shit ends in the real world, I see these fools taking life for granted, stuck behind a front just watching their best years pass them right by.
Like it's some fucking game that we're playing like there's some pause or rewind, they're taught God sits and just waits making lists of mistakes until it's their time. What if its not a religion imagine no right no wrong, but believe in what gets you throuigh as long as it helps you to- laugh, kick back, just glad to even have the chance to try again, You can fall in this world but get back up.
 
 
Half-Ass: (Sean Hernandez, (c)(p) 2002)
I thought you said you could never believe in just part time, "I could have sworn I heard you always crossed your fingers before, So just to be sure, spell it out one last time", I guess I never heard or I just wasnt listening
Not like I planned just much too soon, and Im just glad to be breathing, Not the kind of thing that you can fit into a verse with a half ass solo, When all I really have is time how can I give anything real.
 
American't: (Sean Hernandez (c)(p) 2001)
Unite the time is coming when we will outnumber them, Educate yourself and those around you, Realize worshiping the almighty dollar wont change shit, Just a Distraction, to keep you chasing pointlessness, Born into this indebted existence
Taught to owe raised on promissary notes bought and sold by entities you'll never know, Living off you, as you struggle to make your payments, Americant be bothered.
Its not about money, not morals, or borders, fuck that they're just manmade things, Just distrations to keep you chasing pointlessness, Raised in this indebted existence and breaking out.
So you know cut your cards and sell your home, Budeanoyoowo', Have we given it up outright, Folded without a single battle, Americant just kick back laughing .
 
Clubbin (Sean Hernandez (c)(p) 2002)
Random group of future enemies, radiating lies simply for some overrated urge, not hard to find the words, hard to hear the bullshit with all this rhythmic thumping, these robotic lights seem programmed to hide these shallow concience-less existances.
Youre made pay cover to meet
When just down the street...
Theres a collection of energy generating sounds for free, just to share the time, offer a piece of mind, tell their tale through rhyme, hoping someday someone will hear them.
Endless nights, ears bleeding, sweating
Fretting, theres aint up ahead
Around some door
Bouncing off a cieling
Decibels just screaming for an ear
But youd rather dress up
Go dance at youre club...
 
Steppin' Out: (Sean Hernandez, (c)(p) 1999)
I step outside, get on my bike and ride as I head down to the park to meet some friends and go get high, but dont two blocks before two cops in a squad car stop and tell me shit for what some tagger did they know Im innocent, but search and harrass me because they know I cant do anything, Fuck your badge Fuck your authority
I call him pig and so he slams me to the ground they got me cuffed for nothing, all I did was step outside and this is what I get "Cant ride your bike here no more" is all they say as they head back to their car, slam their doors, and speed away, Just harrass me because Im not like them
Fuck your badge fuck your authority

410: (Sean Hernandez (c)(p) 2002)
We're just driving home,
Cruising, blazing dro
Officer just leave us the fuck alone
(Pass on by)
Ain't startin shit man,
We was just driving home
 
One of those nights when staying in my lane just takes up so much concentration, its amazin, how theres 50 cars on this road and he pulls up on us, now that rearview gotta clear view of that squad car got the grill guard and lights on top(aww shit)(whats wrong) i bet he's running my plates.
You see there's police on the street that are breaking their own laws, somehow my prior arrests excuse his probable cause, so now hes popping the trunk, and checking my shoes, and grabbing my balls (like its illegal to smell like weed)
And all for what a gram of KB maybe your boss will toss an applause to you, but you cant stop us bitch so i'd quit my job if I was you, maybe take a day off, call in sick, ohh hell no he gung-ho, like they was giving awards for being a prick....
Gotta take a breath before I pass out
What are you gonna make me wait for a magistrate dont make me laugh out
Well you could take me to jail, but all my boys got my bail, so why dont you save yourself a trip, bitch
Cause we was just, we be just... 
  (Slow intro hook chorus type thing)
 
Rocket's Down: ( B.Perez (c) 2002)
I thought you sent a rocket out to get me.
well I'm still living I guess your plan fell short again.
You dictate. Play mastermind. One false move
You lost your mind. It's a long way to the top
when you're on the ground. You lost your band tiger
settle down. 9 to 5. fuck you settle down.
I thought the world was here for you to save her.
wrong again hidden intentions leveled you.
you'd dictate then live a lie.  Your doctrine, left behind.
It's a long way to the top of your frontman ego
The rocket's down the Cadillac's ready to go.
 
AboutFace: (Sean Hernandez (c)(p) 2003)
Just quit calling back, doesnt suit you crawling back
Used to use emotions as a clever way of getting in my head
And the hardest part is opening your eyes
Living lies yet still struggle to survive it
Damn these games are getting old
Nothing ever happens clinging to a memory 
Dont forget just move on and forgive
And the easy way is just to realize
Theres no more time to waste just head our separate ways
Tell those tales to save some face
 
For some reason seeing you cry dont make me sad
Its been real nice speaking with you
But this conversations through
Dont be mad if your best friend comes over to ease my pain
Or at the ones who come to all the shows
Just to stand up in the front row
 
Dont forget just move on and forgive.
 
     

Pinkslip: (c) (p) (M.Gamez, 2000)
In spite of myself, because of your flatter...
(Chorus: Precious time, gave it to you all.
You've got my heart so have a ball.) x's 2
Fuck it, Shit it, Throw it on the ground...
         (Repeat Chorus)
Go downtown was all I wanted to do...
 
Never Freeze: (c) (p) (M.Gamez, 2001)
If I blew my head off tell, me how you'd remember me? As that handsome punk who fingered you back when you were 16?, or as that clown, who drank up all the beer, and left the cigarettes out in the rain.
Why dont you tell them how we started all this shit. After we broke free we were somehow, admired for it. With this little idea not to feel sorry for ourselves, and still be all up in the mix.
(Chorus: And all of yall would just go on.
Yeah all of yall would just go on, and       
Never Freeze til you heard certain songs, but you'd go on.)  
Left a scar on yall without thinking to be pissed at for years to come. I may have gave a shit back then but lately I've been numb.  So prepare for a come-up. All of us should chill out at the top again, that's where we should be. Stolen in my youth with the best of them, and lost a bunch of gold.  Reflected on direction, life's still put on hold. So eat your heart out. I'll show you in the end when I'm gone.(Repeat Chorus)
 
Back on the Map: (c) (p) (M.Gamez, 2001)
Well, I knew you pretty well back then.
But, times have changed now.
You probably lost me long ago.
It's been a year since I've been gone.
Feelings were passed through a pen.
Said I'd take it all back just to do it again.
Just to show you, I think about you all the time.
(Chorus: So you realize the issue.
But you fail to comprehend.
Until you cant change a thing,
but still pretend, what it might be like,
to be Back on the Map)
Even if I saw you now,
would you get that feeling
Like you didnt know what to say?
Words can't even help us now.
Seems like we're nothing compared
to the way that we were,
but may be we're spared.
Cared about each other
but to no avail anyway
(Repeat Chorus)
And it might not ever happen.
So brace yourself for when it does.
Cuz when it's on you never want to let it go,
until you have to leave and go back home.
 
Illegal Foundation (HOBBLE) : (c) (p) (M.Gamez, 2001)
We had celebrity status and everybody had us pegged
as those motherfuckers making noise down the block.
And when the cops were called, I had to speak for us all
after downing 9 shots with weed hidden in my sock.
(Chorus: And all along no one knew what went on behind closed doors.
Cuz HOBBLE was the place, with smoke in the air and beer on the floors.)
Too many bitches, too many dirty dishes,
stacking up and backing up their asses against the walls.
Over a hundred people, all different but equal,
entered never knowing they were breaking several laws.
(Repeat Chorus) - Dub Style- (Repeat Chorus)
Hard to believe it, and even harder to leave it,
we got away with more than anyone would allow.
And though it nearly killed us, we all are stronger now.
Yeah, we all are stronger now.
 
Excerpt fr: W.S. M.C's : (c) ( M.C.Frito Pie, The Lyrical Sniper, SeanDre 2000)
Instrumentals never really mattered much to me.
Chug 3 bottles of O.E., then turn to take a pee
on another M.C's demo tape, " necrobeastial anal rape"
lightly frosted on your baby's birthday cake.
For goodness sake, where could you find another one like me?
Turn my cap around and in orange it's S.P.
Slightly blessed, I guess, too much stress, so I smoke cess,
steadily weaving my way trough all this motherfucking mess.
Used to wear Guess but now it's Sutters all up on the ass.
Take 3 hits, exhale, turn, then I pass it to my pet,
or whoevers on my left, just get the shit back to me.
Cuz I need me a hit of the oh so sweet sensi.
Cuz if it was up to me, I would see that every fool in this joint
would be as high as me, but not as fly as me
Don't ever lie to me. If you wanna know how good the shit is, then try a key.
It used to be that all these punk motherfuckers were hatin'.
But now a days it seems that they're steadily fading away, probably cuz they're gay.
"Punk is Dead", is what they say, but I say Fuck em', you should be.
Yall wanna keep fucking around with me and turn me back to the old me!
 
Fallen Alabi :(B.Perez (c) 2001)
Get a life get away. why can't you find a friend?
Well I'd rather sleep alone with my dreams and my hoes.
To fallen loyal friends that made me who I am:
You treated me like this.  Finger's up to you.
So tell me how to live, then tell me where to die.
I'd rather sleep alone in the middle of the road.
Another episode A fallen alabi it aint no thing just
A day in the life of Joe.
Answer all the questions that perplex your mind.
The misanthropy you feel should leave you far behind, So
Get away and get a life it aint no thing
Just a day in the life of Joe.
 
Forbidden Fruit: (B.Perez (c) 2002)
Forbidden Fruit,
    You know I really cant say your name or the town
where you reside we've spent far too long in the shadows
Down Low to let it spill into the streets.  So sweet,
so kind.  I do wish that you were mine but you've got
him and he's got dough.  Never mind the sancho on
the side, hide the way we feel 'cos we know that it aint cool.
    Then what do you mean "why dont I call?"
you know what that involves.  He might be home alone
when youre gone and he'll ask WHO'S THIS? 
You know he knows my name.  Reputation alone
would kill what you hold so dear, but who fears the sancho
on the side?  We always knew his name.  Call hin Eric,
Paul or Adrian.  9 times out of 10 we've called him friend. 
So how fucked up is this world were livind in?  To hide
the way we feel, misinterpreting lust for truth.
He's got the cash but we've got the juice.
    Now were living a poor mans dream:  take what we're
given and make it something. To Entertain.  To Overwhelm. 
To sustain long eneough to make it sound good. 
   Now were living good it seems.  Playing shows and singing
things.  With all our friends and all this love, Who dare deny
this life aint good eneough?  NO ONE SHOULD.
    So dance with me when your daddy's gone.
    I'll make you feel like you know I can
    Make you feel like you know I have before.
Forbidden Fruit
 
Aint got no Queen (Dirty Girl) (c)(p) (M.Gamez 2002)
Oh, Joe Dirty, where'd you get these bitches at?!
Made so many moves today, paid the price just to hang with all these.
Cats in town they say," Nobody's gonna make me, stay true, to someone other than myself, oh, almost every night."
So if you take a couple steps back you might see, just how quick the bright ones fade,
 and the dim ones always stick around till. Someone breaks them, someone makes them leave.
Percieved by who you've done. Not my number one, so when I'm trough I'd pass her to you cuz...
(Chorus:) I aint got no time for relations, with that love and lust and somewhere in between.
Cuz I just drank a fifth, and I'm down for anything girl, so no, I Aint got no Queen. No I aint got no queen.
Just bait your hook, catch a fresh one, throw it back. Macked his way across this town and found that good ones come and go but leave their mark. It's all across your neck, forget your fucking feelings, disrespect is mean but true. Never knew what hit her, still I split for good, although it aint right.
To settle down would knock your crown off, found a few. Due for quite some time but how confusing pimpin' is now it's not fair to you. Screw all those things you thought 'bout making plans to withstand tests of time. Fine for now but in the end we'll see whose friends with me cuz (Chorus).
