Favorite Verses

I think that all the silence is worse than all the violence
Fear is such a weak emotion thats why I despise it
We scared of almost everything, afraid to even tell the truth
So scared of what you think of me, I’m scared of even telling you
Sometimes I’m like the only person I feel safe to tell it to
I’m locked inside a cell in me, I know that there’s a jail in you
Consider this your bailing out, so take a breath, inhale a few
My screams is finally getting free, my thoughts is finally yelling through

Verse 3, "Words I Never Said" - Lupe Fiasco

DoctorSoft · 02-02-2011, 12:27 AM

He got the letter in his mail by the middle of his summer
Wouldn't have had to go if it wasn't for his new born brother
He was barely eighteen, murdering people even younger
And he still ducks and covers every time he hears the thunder

He still hears the screams, smells the flesh, tastes the death
Sees the blood, feels the pain What's to gain?
Nothing's left but the slug that remains in his right path
The bullet laughs every time he cries, and it drives him mad

- Eyedea and Abilities - A Murder of Memories

Such a great song.

The traffic lights they turn up Blue tomorow

Shine their emptiness down own my bed

The tiny island sags downstream

Cause the life thats lived is dead

And The Wind Cries Mary

From "Sad Clown" by Slug:

This world ain't a wasteland
It just taste that way some times.
It depends on the angle
On how you read your lines.

For every brick we stack to come together to build
There's a sick little crack in this foundation still.
Humans! I can't accept them.
Trying to understand them
And what fuels them and their essence.
I'm looking for some leverage.
Catch up, trying to catch me.
Curse-ed, depress-ed.
Here to make you happy.

"Hey daddy tell me why the clown is crying."
"Well son he's got the task of cheering up the ill and dying.
On top of that everybody thinks that he's insane.
Can't fathom why he'd wanna ease their pain."

Walking through this maze made of concrete walls
When you're not allowed to climb there's no way to possibly fall.
When your hands are restricted to hold nothing but self
How can you get a grip?
How can you pick up what you're dealt?

The clown stays sad.
The ground stays hard.
With a couple pounds of migraine, a pocket full of scars.
But the face stays painted on for everyone to gaze upon
continuing the bad dream till he wakes up gone.

they have nothing unless they want to use cracker or something weird

Wiz Khalifa - In the Cut
Rolling all this weed I am holding
Thinking she high before before she get the chance to smoke it
Blowing o's she knows my dreams potent
Man at home you living for the moment
Coming for the game, I run it, I own it
Kush and orange juice be the components
Come to my crib see money so big you cant fold it
This is how I live
She poured her a lil gin
Then order her another due
before she was finished man freaky got super lubed

Grounded, stableness, and I'm happy I found it
But I wanna fly away when my head gets clouded
Can't think big when the space is crowded
Outside the box still moving around it
Find an eagles nest at the top of the mountain
But when the moment's gone you still have to climb back down it
If there's an alarm, I think it's about time they sound it
People marching in the streets and their drums are pounding
Not mysterious actions, history speaks volumes
Communicate blackness, vibrations and bouncing
Music leaves your concious loud and your voice silent
Hear no evil, speak no violence
See my people, hero Christ is
He can see you in your crisis
I'm too see through to be hiding
This truth is timeless, so what the hype is

Nicki Minaj - Roman's Revenge

Shoulda sent a thank-you note, you little ho
Now I’ma wrap your coffin with a bow
(Ni-ni-ni) “Nicki, she’s just mad ’cause you took the spot”
Word, that bitch mad ’cause I took the spot?
Well, bitch, if you ain’t ****tin’, then get off the pot
Got some ***** out in Brooklyn that’ll off your top

djchameleon · 02-03-2011, 05:05 PM

this is one of my favorites from Nicki

Nicki Minaj - Did it on 'em

All these bitches is my sons
and I'ma go and get some bibs for 'em
a couple formulas, little pretty lids on 'em
If i had a dick, I would pull it out and piss on 'em
Let me shake it off
I just signed a couple deals i might break you off
and we ain't making up I don't need a mediator
Just let them bums blow steam, radiator
