"And One"

Where should I start

Disjointed heart

I’ve got no commitment

To my own flesh and blood

Left all alone

Far from my home

No one to hear me, to heal my ill heart, I

Keep it locked up inside

Cannot express

To the point I’ve regressed If

anger’s a gift, then I guess I’ve been blessed, I

Keep it locked up inside

Keep my distance from your lies

It’s too late to love me now

You helped me to show me

It’s too late to love me now

You don't even know me

Breaking a part of my heart to find release

Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Breaking a part of my heart to find release

Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Breaking a part of my heart to find release

(Break) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

(Me) Breaking a part of my heart to find release

(Too) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Keep it locked up inside

Keep my distance from your lies

Breaking a part of my heart to find release

(Break) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

(Me) Breaking a part of my heart to find release

(Too) Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Breaking a part of my heart to find release

Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Breaking a part of my heart to find release

Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace

Keep my distance

Keep my distance

Keep my distance

Keep my distance

[music slows to rap solo...]

Spit drips from the jaw of the witless witness

Cryptic colloquialism shifts your midrift

Dark all I do embark the shadows

Involved with my thought catalog, analogue, rap catalog

Keep my distance, and fear resistance, hurt by persistence

The twisted web of tangled lies Strangles my hope to waste and numbs the taste

And I'm forced to face these hate crimes

Against the state of being

Feeling the weight-less-ness pressed between the ceiling

Reeling around room

Riding a bubble of sound proof

It's the frequency making you

Sha-Shake with every boom

Involuntary muscle contraction

Ignoring and drinking musical gas fueled euphoria

The sound pounds to make the dead flush

To have you a head rush with red thoughts and said stuff

"Step Up"

Watch as the room rocks

Men only moonwalk

Mixed media slang

Banging in your boom box verbal violence

Lyrical stylist

In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish

Rapping to a beat doesn’t make you an MC

With your lack of skill and facility

You’re killing me

And a DJ in the group just for credibility

I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes

You’re not an emcee if someone else writes your lines

And rapping over rock doesn’t make you a pioneer

Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years

But now they’re getting randomly mixed and matched up

All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck

So how does it stack up?

None of it’s real

You want to be an emcee you’ve got to study the skill

[Chorus] Who can rock a rhyme like this?

Bring it to you every time like this?

Who can rock a rhyme

like this?

Step, step up, step, step up

So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity

But mentally you don’t have the hip hop energy

With a tendency to make up stories

Sounding like the only hip hop you’ve heard is top 40

And your record company is completely missing it

All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate

So in a battle you can't hack it

React with whack shit

And get smacked with verbal back flips

Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts

It's taken decades for emcees to establish this

You’re new to hip hop and welcome if your serious

But not on the mic

Leave that to the experienced

(Using the waves of sound the true master paralyzes his opponents, leaving him vulnerable to attack)

[Chorus (2x)]

(After years of pain staking research by the world's leading sound scientists, we here at the sound institute have invented a reliable audio weapons system. Actual movement of musical sound in space used to carefully attack and neutralize the cellular structure of the human body, and the question must be asked.)

[Chorus (2x)]

"Part Of Me"

Part of me won’t go away

Everyday reminded how much I hate it

Weighted against the consequences

live without it so it’s senseless

Wanna cut it out of my soul

And just live with a gaping hole

Take control of my life

And wash out all the burnt taste

I made the problems in the first place

Hang my head low ‘cause it’s part of me

Ya hardly see right next to the heart of me

Heard of me the routine scar

New cuts cover where the old ones are

And now I’m sick of this I can’t stand the sandpaper thoughts that grade on my sanity I rather not even be then the man that’s staring in the mirror through me

[Pre chorus] Cut myself free willingly

Stop just what’s killing me [x4]

[Chorus] I feel it everyday

I feel I made my way

I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside

Swallowing me

Freedom can be frightening if you've never felt it

Once it’s been dealt with you feel like you’ve been touched by something angelic

And then melted down into a pool of peace

Cease to be the animal you used to be

Remove the broken parts you know were wrong

And feel the karma when the problem’s all gone

And then you start to see another piece

of yourself that you can’t let be

Memories of the last fight to free yourself

Take it to the depths of the bottom of the well

And now you know you can choose to lose the part in your heart

Where your insides bruised

You can live if you’re willing to

Put a stop to just what’s killing you

[Pre chorus x4]

[Chorus]

(Alive in me, inside of me, a part of me screams away silently

This part of me won’t go away, part of me won’t go away

Everywhere I look around I see how everyone aught to be

Every time I see myself I see there’s always something wrong with me)

[Chorus x2]

 I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me [x2]

"High Voltage"

Just do something to tell you who I am, ya know?

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

 Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

I've been taking into crates ever since I was livin in space

Before the ratrace, before monkeys had human traits

Mastered numerology and bigbang theology

 Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology

Invented the mic so I could start blessin it

And chincheckin kids to make my point like an impressionist

Many men have tried to shake us

But I twist mic cords to double helixes and show them what I'm made of

I buckle knees like leg braces

 Cast the spell of instrumental-ness and all of the emcees that hate us

 So try on, leave you without a shoulder to cry on

From now to infinity let icons be bygones

 I fire bomb ghostly notes haunt this

I've tried threats but moved on to a promise

 I stomp shit with or without an accomplis (Mixed media)

 The stamp of approval is on this

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

 It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

Akira, put a kink in the backbones of clones with microphones

Never satisfy my rhyme jones

 Sprayin bright day over what you might say

Blood type krylon Technicolor type A

On highways right with road rage I'm patient to win

The cage and the tin to bounce all around

In surround sound devouring the scene

Subliminal gangrene paintings

 Overall the same things sing songs karaoke copy madness

Break bones verbally with sticks and stone tactics

Fourth dimension, combat convention

Write rhymes at ease while the tracks stand at attention (Attention)

Meant to put you away with the pencil

Pistol, official, 16 line rhyme missile

While you risk it all, I pick out of your flaws

Spin, blah blah blah blah

You can say you saw

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

 Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

"Carousel"

she can't hide no matter how hard she tries

her secret disguised behind the lies

and at night she crys away her pride

with eyes shut tight staring at her inside

all her friends know why she can't sleep at night

all her family asking is she alright

all she wants to do is get rid of this hell

well all she's got to do is stop kiddin herself

she can only fool herself for so long [x3]

I'm too weak to face me (she can only fool herself)

[chorus] I never know just why you run

so far away far away from me [x2]

when it comes to how to live his life he can't be told

says he got it all under control

thinks he knows it's not a problem he's stuck with

but in reality it would be a problem to just quit

an addict and he can't hold the reins

the pain is worse cause his friends have it the same

tries to slow down the problem he's got

but can't get off the carousel until he makes it stop

he can only fool himself for so long [x3]

I'm too weak to face me (he can only fool himself)

[chorus x2]

Fly with me under the wings I gave you, Try to be closer to me and I'll save you [x2]

[chorus x2]
