(Rocky)
This kid’s gonna be the best kid in the world. This kid’s gonna be somebody better than anybody I ever knew.’ And you grew up good and wonderful. It was great just watchin’ you, every day was like a privilege. Then the time come for you to be your own man and take on the world, and you did. But somewhere along the line, you changed. You stopped being you. You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you’re no good. And when things got hard, you started lookin’ for something to blame, like a big shadow.
Let me tell you something you already know.The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and KEEP MOVING FORWARD. How much you can take and KEEP MOVING FORWARD. That’s how winning is done!
Now if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth! But you gotta be willing to take the hits. And not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!
Cause I am me never saw it differently
Had a change or 2 but I remain me
Roller coaster life and I wasn’t strapped in
So when the loops arrived I wasn’t laughing
Never was prepared for this thing called life
Never saw it coming but hey that’s life
let’s this be that moment that I realize I own it
That I open up life and you can come and join it if you want
(Chorus)
But I am me and I’ll never a change thing
Yeah, I am me
Yeah, I am me
never change a thing , no
I am me and I’ll never a change thing
I am me
Yeah, I am me
never change a thing , no
Cause I am me that nerdy little boy
…And this rapping is my toy
Playing like a jedi cause I love that star wars
Light saber battle yeah I’m dorky to the core
But it’s who I am and that makes me love me more
Tell me to grow up and I say what for?
I’m having to much fun and I know your jealous some
Of my talent skill potential and everything I’ve done so far
(Chorus)
Cause I am me on to the next degree
Key Intelligence is what I hid internally
Deep inside my brain and there it lies I go insane with a
Genius kind of madness but I know I must refrain
…Can’t let it all out
But I want to scream and shout
I’m a fucking genius no comparison between us
Cause I know you want to be me but, you can only see me far out
(Chorus)

Imagine be the name it’s exemplified in living
Not to serious since most the time im kidding
Shouldn’t play with me cause I’ll put you to shame
Since I’m always overtime and ahead of the game
But failure and success is just one of the same
Cause no matter what I’m always looking to gain
On the upper hand so I do because I can
Don’t understand? That’s ok cause no one can
I plus me squared to the tenth degree
Then cube magically does that equal me?
I’m not as complicated as you make me out to be
More simplicity, no I’m not soliciting
Cause homie right here man this is for free
On that mixtape download legally
A little piece of me that I’m sharing with you
And the only thing better is still me times two
Hey Julian So your rapping now huh? Wheres the bling? And your bitches? No Bitches? What about a car?... On 20’s... Isnt that part of being a rapper?
Are you Fucking Serious?
Lyrical Napster hanging from a Lime wire
Morpheus mind putting down your double wall fire
On that free shit fuck a top 40 hit
Looking for the real? By George this is it
Doing what you don’t what I do is excel
A daily dose of me is better for your health
But stealth are side effects in which you might feel
In feeling kind of light, fat, and stupid for real
So please crack a smile, yo a grin is not a sin
Place me by the sun and start to watch it dim
A star among space not space watching stars
Looking like a prison cause I hold so many bars
I’m Always down to flow just tell me place and time
Just bring a mop or two cause I’ll blow your mind
Yup I got you, but you don’t have me
Gingerbread pace when I flow so quickly
Inadvertently I’m confusing you too
And killing mother goose by the rhymes that I use
Read a book or two and we’ll see eye to eye
But you never do so just call me the sky
I cant help but laugh cause it’s easy looking past
All full of yourself when you’re really just half

The Failure
03:35

I have a alot of people telling me I just need to get back to being me.
Alright. I'll show you, but pay attention though
Excuse me while I vocalize my essence
Don’t ask for shit my presence is your presents
No bite off Ye so to make that clear
That line was my shit cause I been saying it for years
Been dreaming off this track and I been dreaming for some years
But now the dragon’s up and I’m out to strike some fear (dragon roar)
Call me TP since I’m coming up yo rear
Wiping bullshit and cleaning out your ears
Like the reset the mental check is offset
But what I’m writing here just might be best yet
It’s me against myself so please place your bets
I’m here and here I goes and he who goes, gets
Carry no guns cause my eyes are like knives
Killing kitty’s 9 lives in just one try (cat angry)
Spit full of venom, and skin like denim
Doubters talk shit, cause shit I let them
It’s time to wake up and make up the flow
Not pre determined I’m just making as I go
Freestyle so –so but you don’t know
When I write down the lyric, y’all be like oh!
Damn he did it again that kid imagine
Facebook him quick and friend request him
Google up the name, bookmark domain
Stuck inside your brain storming up some rain
Oh indeed I will, believe I’m being real
I put the truth in it fed ex signed and sealed
With the realness contentious possibly controversial
The movement I be making be so definite inertial
You can’t stop me now, like my name was the force
Metachlorean count was known as the source
Driven to strike a chord with my hardcore wordplay
Scribble sixteens when I’m bored it’s easy
No fallacies just facts among the fiction
Ya want to follow up yo please check ya diction
Bitches running off with a thought and no sense
Off direction no GPS, pests
I find em quick I B UPS
Yes test above rest cause I be so blessed
Blessed be the one I’m descendant of the sun
I have some punch lines but plenty of puns
Carry no guns cause my eyes are like knives
Killing kitty’s 9 lives in just one try (cat angry)
Spit full of venom, and skin like denim
Doubters talk shit, cause shit I let them
You see you cant win Odds are better for success
To get the pope on his knees and quick to confess
Take it how you want im just getting off my chest
But still 10 ahead cause my rap game is chess
And im fucking up rewind buttons
Busting frestyles cause you want to see something cool
Well this is just what I do, Imagine That me times 2
Twice the MC like MC squared
When Im flowing on the beat they be like damn fool thats so unfair
Go and cut your hair you fucking hippie

Alright I must confess I’m not a fan of new boyz
But damn I got to say
damn hot shit boyz
Now that’s said and done I begin with my fun
Erupting with the noise, here it comes better run
So I’m a bring it back and show you where its at
Stars & Streetlamps present me Imagine That
On this bass track with the beat so phat
I got the mic so please shut your yap
Always brand new with this flow that I do
But don’t misconstrue that posins what I do
Please think it through let it all process
Cool comin through cause I bring the hotness
High temperature extreme Fahrenheit
Ignite rocket fuel to the stars I take flight
Alright, Ok, you know what I’m about
Any questions now, so I can silence all the doubt
No I didn’t think so, silent like your dead
Question marks seen all surrounding your head
Looking like the sims read emotions so easy
Im’a fuckin mac and you is all PCs
(Chorus)
You talking bout me?
No I think not
You talking bout me?
No I think not
You talking bout me?
No I think not
If you got something to say then please step up
I think not
Slow to operate not to mention contemplate
So I’m running circles, wait no figure 8’s
All around you to ensure you’re confused
Trouble keeping up? So sorry fool!
Hey pay attention right here please focus
Can’t comprehend all my magic hocus pocus
Rabbit in a hat and poof like that
Volume in the room, straight went flat
Erupt with applause standing ovation
Bitches getting crazy like they lost their medication
All off their pills no longer standing still
Words can’t explain, but they was crazy for real’s
Unbelievable these words that I spew
Bars so sick I got bitches saying ewwww
So tell me this, Can you really handle?
When I’m blowing sixteens like I’m blowin birthday candles
Stay hush hush all you haters know the deal
Claim to call me fake cause you claim to know what’s real
Claim to know whats real? Man you couldn’t tell the difference
Not about opinions, it’s a matter of the preference
(chorus)
One more time just to really piss you off
What kinda sicko are you getting off?
Oh the sickest kind no one sicker you will find
Go ahead and look but im the worst kind
No one on this earth can ever be like me
Might have to search in other galaxies
If you cant see then maybe hubble will
But I forget universe is parallel
So might as well take me and square it up
Cause I’m rooted now yo Scotty beam me up
On my enterprise and I’m looking for success
It won’t take us long, cause I’m riding with the best
On the S.S. on your marks and look alive
Fire up the rockets and max the hyper drive
Take it to the max and then times five
Try to keep up but ya cant Nose dive
Failure in your try so don’t wonder why
When its just expected, so don’t you dare cry
So im leaving now and leaving y’all speechless
Anything I left, suck it off leeches

You know I had to eventually get on this one.
Microphone check yo, mark ready set go
Off with my flow, best believe I let it go yo
So sure shot when the beat gets to pop
I drop it like its hot falling off I think not
I show you what I got while I execute the plot
Execute command as the one whose calling shots
Dirty deeds at hand in my DNA strand and
I got as many bars as the beach has got sand
Caught red handed Smile on the candid
Alien Intelligence Crash landed
Into my brain and Ive never been the same
Once was so lame but now I’m simply King
I do it my way yeah BK way
Made simon shadow and told him I say
Yes follow me now I am the leader
Breaking speed readers in my two seater
No slowing down cause im in the fast lane
Doing what I want can you say the same?
No I think not but Imagine if you want
You can be me be Imagine if you want
But remember this man you just a clone
Biting what I do doing nothing on your own
Such a sad story and not to mention boring
So I switched it up now living in the glory
Taking huge risks equals living like this
Think it was easy? Such thoughts are dismissed
Gotta spend big if you want to make a bit
Aint no half ass and forget the word quit
I want to be legit so I’m never tuning in
To that wack shit that you be swimming in
Like a fucking anchor its pulling us down
Another drowning victim, bow our heads now
Ok silence over, boomin supernova
Loving all over, pure Casanova
Seducer of the words and remembered like a curse
Object of desire like a lady wants a purse
Digging through the words like DJ digging crates
Huge amount of words are supplement for dates
But never hesitate on the beat so get it straight
Complicate the rhyme so they never replicate

(DJ)
With us today is the incomprehensible and sometimes just downright odd, Imagine That!
So hey I hear your going to do a little something for us today, a demonstration if you will? Is that true? You ready?
No practice run the 1st cut’s the only one
If ya cant do it right then its best to try it none
No use in saying go, cause I already begun
Try and measure skills and I’ll just reply tons
Yeah that’s how I do when I simply execute
Like dot E.X.E. on a windows CPU
Far more advanced than your plans to command
since I’m looking to enhance by creations of my
Mind, never left behind nope never again
I’m on that goal line from back at forth and ten
While others pray for mary’s and just say amen
I’m here making moves that you cant comprehend
I’m Silent like a ninja bigga than jiggas figgas
With eyes on the prize my status gets bigger bigger
Crazy writing skills And imaginations vigor
Think I’m stopping now? How do you figure?
Not even slowing down as I perform how
My time is coming up so I’m just counting down
The seconds till I make it find a stage and then I take it
Take the Game approach and surpass expectations
(DJ)
Wow Ok ok, I must say that was quite good. Invigorating even. A breath of fresh air for the hip hop community. So there you go boys and girls! Imagine That, not so live but definitely direct and in your face. He is coming with it. Think you can keep going?
Yeah I’m going in, I’m on my second wind
He’s asking me for more, so I begin once again
Yes I’m telling you does that name ring a bell
Not so impressed? Oh shit ah well
Believe I’m bringing it cause it’s the name too
Initials I.T. but should be I.Q.
In fact I really do see the impossible
Taking the unreal and make it literal
(DJ)
Alright that whats I’m talking about! Just keeps going boys and girl, just keep going and going and going.

Once upon a time not long ago
When others lived fast and I lived life slow
I was coming up Dow Jones rising up
Stock market crashed but I’m no broker showing up
I keep myself together during inclement of weather
Flames, Planet Shakes, High waves yo whatever
Never find me drown when that rain's coming down
My Flow keeps me afloat so I be safe and sound
So here I go now yo ready set go
My bar is full power and yours still looking low
On the count of the 3 but I’m gone when you said on
No im not a cheat you just take too long
So im looking past the wait skip straight to check mate
Peace Mo’ Fuckers as I blast out the gate
Fuck a bet to place put me down to take the win
Reap all your winnings then place the bet again
Once upon a time not long ago
When I was sparking up the fire but all I got was glow
I said to check me out but all I heard was no
Hey shoot me a beat and they said what for?
Alright mo fuckers its gon be like that?
I never heard of you when you hear Imagine That
Told talk is cheap so instead I speak with bars
Spitting prisons made of gold from what I’ve said thus far
Invaluable, unbelievable, improbable, so damn incredible
Just doing what I do with my nike state of mind
Failure on repeat cause I’m success by design
For every thousand No’s I’m gonna hear a Yes
It’s looking 9 cubed so take a guess what’s next
On the right track but a different kind of train
Same destination no hate do your thing
Meet you at the top, conquer up the summit
Flag in my name and exclaim did done it
Once upon a time not long ago
I Did my homework on Mr. Fiasco
Hey Big Brother yo this for you
My inspiration to keep the flow true
This might catch your ear yo I hope it does too
Not to get signed but just for thank yous
To show me I can do, and flow intelligent
And speak of the matter that to me is relevant
Replace supplements and supply organic sense
So I use progressive tense to make a difference
When I started out yo I claimed FnF
Westside chapter from that coast to the left
But it wasn’t me so no one was impressed
I Took your business model and created S&S
Now it’s S n S U.P.
Thank you so much Mr. First and Fifteen
Hope to share the stage or make a feature on a track
So don’t forget the name, Its me Imagine That

It Matters to Me
04:30
|
|||
(Chorus)
Cause you never understand, you never even care
It’s all I ever hear damn it’s so unfair
I let you get to me because I care
Because it matters to me
Oh yes, It matters to me
It matters to me since you matter to me
So love, it matters
I was on my tip do whatever suited me
Happy living me yeah that was the key
To living out right every day and every night
Never uptight feeling light and living right
Then you came along and revealed what was wrong
My pride left me blind so I sang the same ol song
And refused to go along with the path that you picked
But don’t get me wrong I’m not trying to be slick
Just difference of opinions, miscommunication
I apologized with no hesitation
So sorry love you misunderstood
Let me try again, rewind it back if I could
I should treat ya better yeah that I can do
Kiss you and miss you improving how I do
All those little things that love can make me do
Like a bright idea they just come to me too but
I know it’s been a while since I made you smile
But give me an inch and I’ll give ya a mile
(Chorus)
Waiting by the dressing room wasn’t the worst
Holding all your shopping bags and heavy ass purse
Waiting on my lady like a plan to unfurl
Anticipating for the girl of my world
Out from the dressing room made me step back
With her Lany kind of cuteness yeah she was all that
“So how does it look” with a question she asked
Not a moment soon did I check out her ass
Can’t blame me right? it means I like too
“The dress looks good and so do you”
But misunderstood of the words that I used
To describe my gorgeous girl and the way that it do
The dress I must confess was irrelevant to cuteness
Yet a point less cause I didn’t act so impressed
So she got upset but hid it from me though
And as always, expected me to know
Surprised her with a hug and said she looked great
But she pushed me out and said you’re to late
(Chorus)
Women are from venus, men are from mars
Basic understanding why you make it so hard
We not the same page but at least we got the book
You can be the queen and I’ll serve you as the rook
Claim to call it check mate, but really it’s a stale mate
It’s not a fuckin game, It’s just a first date
Yeah I like your shoes, but to me there still shoes
Nothing that impressive and I’m sorry that’s the truth
But for you
I’ll act so impressed
Acting like them shoes are the best thing yet
Putting on a smile and playing along
I’m not lying love I’m just singing your song
To the same tune, the beat of your heart
At least I’m being honest must agree that’s a start
Heading for the finish but I’ll never cross the line
Me and you together in the end to freeze time
I’m not your yes man but definitely agree
If it matters to you then it matters to me
(Chorus) x2

Sure Shot
03:24
|
|||
(Chorus)
Ah damn here I go as Im busting with the flow
I Grab a microphone so just tell me when to go
Try to stop me and I’ll put in your place
Yoa stuck in the rat race cause you still contemplate
Who what and why and how is this guy
Spittin a funky flow without getting tongue tied
damn I don’t know but I’m so sorry though
To all the others rappers that I bumped below
To the bottom ranks cause your rhymes just sank
Like nemo off the plank in a shallow think tank
Zero mind control so you Cant hold a thought
Try to bite from me but your bound to get caught
Im Jumping head first without a need to rehearse
I call it a gift cause you call it a curse
Like my own world topsy turvy and twirled
The flow is so hot it’ll makes your toes curl
(Chorus)
Im Never lettin up as I don’t give a ****
Hit with sticky stuff but I’m never staying stuck
Try to look tough by callin out my bluff but
Quick to yell enough when Im spittin from the cuff
I know you like it rough so damn I’m playing hard
Court is now session cause I’m raising past the bar
I’m Comin at you live and fully direct
Rhymin so hard you can call the flow erect
Organic flow minus artificical flava
Look at my skills then look what God gave ya
Sucks he skipped you and doubled up my dose
With bars so sick they go to comatose
Cure isn’t here and that sucks for you
Only things done are tried and true
I Begun with step one and I’m giving up none
Even as some point and try to make fun
(Chorus)
So to the point and with accuracy
I freeze emcees like the temp was negative 3
I Fire sure shot like you wouldn’t believe
And I got a way with rhymes like some kind of thief
Robbed mother goose and the thunder out from zeus
Turned Arkham Loose as a way of temptin bruce
Try to take me back with a small surprise attack
Then I layed your ass flat like I layed this phat track
Never to try again when your weapon is the pen
You end as I begin when the mics to my chin
I fly with confirmation when I spit my information
You freeze in hesitation when you view the complication
Try to fuck with me but you better think not
Cause I drop heat when the heat gets to pop
I found your weak spot cause you must have forgot
That you were straight messin with a fuckin Sure Shot
(Chorus)

For The Love...
04:12
|

(Chorus)
We do this for the love y’all, for the love
We saying what we saying y’all, for the love
Hands up in the air if you feeling true love
We do it we do it we do it for the love
We never giving up y’all, for the love
We giving what we giving y’all, for the love
Hands up in the air if you feeling true love
We do it we do it we do it for the love
I want something new, this Love thing will do
Quite the concept and the concept is cool
Can’t quite describe, cause the love’s beyond words
Nothing but a feeling but the feeling goes unheard
Changing with the verb cause we taking action
Change is truly felt even with a tiny fraction
Give it up put em up give me some love
Knowing that feeling that giving back love
Never thinking of or expecting in return
That’s how love works ya live and learn
Burning with emotions and my heart overflows
Exit through my mouth and so the flow goes
For my friends and foes yo did you even know
This love thing is new and I’m loving how it goes
Eternally around yeah never coming down
Making me so high I’m so high up off the ground
I want to scream so loud out from my lungs now
I want to share this love so let me show you how
No you can’t deny so don’t bother asking why
This feeling that you feel is putting hands into the sky
And just like that wave em side to side
Then before you know it all problems subside
It’s all love man, just do cause you can
We going back to basics so thus here I am
Treating as if, love was brand new
No explanation cause love is telling you
Speaking from the heart so listen with your soul
Ready for the love? Yeah, here we go
(Chorus)
Let me speak intelligence of what I feel inside
Crazy power feeling bringing tears to my eyes
Damn me oh my with this feeling take flight
Don’t know what it is but damn it feels right
Never felt before or dreamed of this
Unknown feeling but feels like bliss
Sweeter than a kiss and longing like its missed
Feeling come back of you I wished
Wishing for a way to provide a state of mind
Living in the dark but you provide the light
I want to fight the fight here with you by my side
Feeling fucking scared but the courage you provide
Focused and alive cross the T’s dot the I’s
No need to smoke cause you keep me hella high
High high higher than the sky
Feeling so good hot damn I wonder why
(Chorus)
|
||||
11. |
||||
Stepping to the mic but I must be stepping right
Cause if I’m stepping wrong I might just catch a flight
No feathers no wings praying red bull please
Falling free fall as I’m wishing for some 3’s
Genie’s in a bottle as my speed is full throttle
Wishing time freeze and turn it to gelato
A life so sweet crystallize up in the heat
Life’s like a diamond hard as fuck but so neat
Hard to appreciate when it’s right there and have it
But worth to fucking kill for try and steal grab it
Yeah I fucking want it damn I gots to get it
But once its in your hand, it’s like na forget it
What the fuck is this I thought life was truly bliss
Maybe hit or miss but always worth the risk
Like love’s first kiss turn a mrs. From a miss
But gotta make it quick clocks running tick tick
Expiration date so I’m trying to hurry fate
I want to find true love but cant even find a date
Tried to be a player but discovered I’m a lover
Love is on my mind cause I’m always thinking of her
But does she love me back damn, I don’t know
I want to fuck her good, not like another ho
Hold her through the night and never let her go
So when she says I love you I can say yeah I know
Back to the topic, oh yeah I’m falling
Not in true love cause that’s clearly not my calling
But never the less gravity has my number
Looking like your stock IQ going dumber
Searching for a cloud so my head can feel like home
It’s feeling like a dream but my totem says I’m home
Inception of my heart is deception of my mind
Feeling tuned in cause my soul reception fine
(Kwency Jones verse lyrics will be posted soon)

(Narrator)
Classroom control and learning efficiency are products of good teaching. Learning must be made meaningful. Interest in work
for which learners see a purpose provides its own discipline.
Hello and salutations lets commence with celebrations
Yo I had to come right back and bring the educations
So thus I’m coming back google map just where I’m at and
Search for evolution and result is Imagine That
But this no evolution, this is Lovelution
Substitute the constitution with the revolution
And please pay attention as I drop this comprehension
Apprehension must be lessened if you want to learn the lesson
Flip the script switch the shit I’m blowing y’all to tiny bits
Want to take my temperature cause I’m feeling fucking sick
Ill with this flow like bliss I’m sweeter than the sweetest kiss
hey you fucking haters are you listening to this?
I really Hope you hear it jack your style and commandeer it
Horror movie entrance So you truly dearly fear it
Creeping up with the rear with my psycho Norman bates pose
Will I strike you down? HA Only God knows
And so I just suppose lets exchange the verbals blows
And Stand toe to toe and just let it all go,
Im on my fucking shit and I’m rapping up a storm
Brainstorming lyrics into multiples of 4
Been building up to blow ever since I was born
I’m gonna kill this shit so you’ve all been forewarned
Even up the score yo I’m talking bout Revenge
Of the bookworm grab you mind and watch it bend
(teacher)
This is the poorest class ive had in a long long time. You dont know what the word study means, you havn't the slightest idea. Now the troubles with your attitude, you dont pay enough attention in class.
Cant hold me back like a quarterback evading sacks
You call those lyrics? I just call it wack
Bring your best attack and commence the combat
Retreating from your line and My blow makes it go flat
Take That! Wack stack stack of sixteens!
Back to middle school and research what rapping means
Can you see me now, or am I just to loud?
This is now my time so I’ve got to do it now
Cause your time is up so I’m a throw it down
Fucking up a lyric like I bitch slapped a noun
And ripping into dictionaries like I’m fucking missionary
Murdering a verb and list em in obituaries
(Teacher)
Most of you have no foundation at all. I tell you right now that unless you get over your lazy habits and come up to the standards ive set for this class. many of you will have the pleasure of repeating this course next semester.
Bitch you just a secretary living so secondary
You should listen up cause this shit’s legendary
Zelda kind of flow like an old school nintendo
Do you get that shit? Or no en tiendo?
Pausing on the crap and warp zone the wack
No time to play, so I finish minutes flat
Take a tip and write it down and maybe you could learn
How to do it how I do it, Revenge of the Bookworm!
(Teacher)
What kind of behavior do you call this, this is the kind of behavior I might of expected of ya. All I do is leave the room for a few minutes and what do I find? Confusion. Disorder
(Narrator)
The development of mutual understanding between teachers and pupils will help eliminate disciplinary problems, for respect is a more desirable molder of behavior than fear.

I’m not where I want but I can see it from here
Just in the distance yeah just another year
I know you clearly hear and you can’t deny skill
My mouth is like a gun that I fire at will
Fully automatic cause I’m still writing like an addict
Inhale to reload then pow I’m back at it
Ballot in the box, Bullet of the gun
Voice from the crowd possessing shine like the sun
Exist to make a difference I’m the spark before the blaze
Providing clarity in this world full of haze
Do as I say not do as I do?
Na fuck that you can do what you want to
That’s just how I’m living and I’m livin so good
Dreaming without a doubt no question if I could
I know just what I’m worth, the value of my words
Here to cash it in with all the lessons that I’ve learned
…Like true love does exist and
You only fucking fail if you fail to persist
I burned my share of bridges but I’m trying build back
Reflecting on my choices but don’t live in the past
Remember yesterday but dream beyond
Love it all now cause tomorrow it could be gone
Giving what I got until my end of days
But until then I just wanted to say
I apologize if im coming off a little bit preachy, I just wanted to clear my mind out a little bit you know?
I see the goals at hand, they’re just within my grip
I have a firm hold cause if not, watch it slip
Like the love I had that slipped up out my hands
I know there’s a reason someday I’ll understand
Feels like im dying and the pain keeps on giving
3 simple letters keep me going and living
KMF til there’s nothing left
Keep Moving Forward until my last breath
I Cut like a chef possess heat like the oven
Think you really something but to me your still nothing
Nothing like outer space absolute zero
Getting lost inside my words but dont you dare call me nemo
Unless you mean captain cause damn I make it happen
Living wide awake on top of bitches still nappin
Dreaming of the stars so I guess they dream of me
Talking shit to me but its me they want to be
And want to bully me cause I’m the opposite of thug
But I’m beyond your reach so bitch you cant touch
Crutch across the finish line but damn I fuckin made it
Don’t accept the win cause the journey I want to save it
Life’s a fuckin bitch but worth shit if she’s easy
Worth is in the work so I don’t fuck if she’s sleazy
Peace to the past cause im ready today
So when thinking of tomorrow I just gotta say
I guess I feel a little better... just a little bit though ... Yeah

Who's Up Next?

Second time around, my second shot at life
The spotlight is on so ive got to shine bright
Tonight’s the night love, like love in moonlight
Moon looks hella nice, cause it reflects your light
Shine in day time like diamonds in the dirt
I had my heart broke but that no longer hurts
I taped it back together maybe not so perfect
But I’ll do it again cause She was so worth it
Back up on the horse, no words, just ride
Who’s up next? Let’s just say it’s come time
So if you’ll be so kind and pass and hand the mic
A Seamless exchange as hands outrun the sight
And I’ll take the stage with hello boys and girls
I present the best of me a boy against the world
And let the tale commence but speak in present tense
As what I set to do has become past tense
But never the less I’m dreaming future tense
I see no common sense so I donate my two cents
Nothing to hard as it comes like second nature
Keys in minor tone but my lyrics sounding major
I cant be hating you, cause that’s what haters do
Hating everything but hating with no clue
Jumping to conclusions with illusions as solutions
Believe they have a right but there aint no constitution
Written fallacies full of greek mythologies
Zeus to us mortals? Yeah more like fantasies
So I ask please end the hate begin the peace
Start from the top leave the past up in the breeze
Execute with ease Not war, make believe
There aint no lies here, just truth up in my sleeves
Magic in my phrase like Obamas yes we can days
Maybe yesterday but the future has me dazed
Of what can still be if I act accordingly
Not surprisingly, I’m talking about we
As we proceed into what tomorrow brings
Something beautiful, yeah just you wait and see
You wont be disappointed, yeah I guarantee that
I’m pointing for the fence, just hand me the bat
So who’s up next? No need to introduce
I will take the stage and be ready on my cues
Blowin like a fuse inspired with my muse
With a mic check, yeah 2 1 2
So No I cant stop, I don’t see an end
Only take a pause then, start again
Like a second breath into my runners high
Endorphins taking over so I’m flying in the sky
Maybe grab a star or two collect some souvenirs
Like a trip to Disneyland, mouse ears
I’m ready for my time and that’s before the count of 3
So who’s up next? just me
just me, believe its me

Which way to go, I’m stuck at crossroads
OMG unknown I’m thinking to myself no
Let me rephrase, I’m thinking for myself
For once in my life I’m thinking of myself
What’s really best for me and not what they want of me
What’s the key to life and living happily so
Fun and fancy free with no worries on my mind
I could share them all but sorry some are mine
But still I want to say so let the spot shine
Here on center stage, ahem, the times mine
I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired
No you’re not hired or sorry but you’re fired
Past amounts due regret to inform you
Hitting breaking points when I pray for breakthroughs
Can we break bread instead of breaking news
Maybe make a difference help us win instead of lose
I can’t help but think and maybe reminisce
Of opportune missed doing that instead of this
Not living in the past but I can’t help but wonder
What if they stayed together and really meant forever
Would the family be a family and all so fuckin dandy
If I wasn’t such a dick and a little bit more handy
But I’m just Clark Kent no S on my chest
Ordinary man but any test will say I’m best
Do because I’m good and accomplish cause it’s great
Still fighting on but I’m never fighting fate
It’s ok to drop a tear cause your safe to do that here
Between me and you, you should always welcome fear
Cause fear will give a challenge and put us to the test
Force to give our best pushing past our known extent
Breaking through the mold wont settle for a dent
I’m working hell bent to obtain my heaven sent
(Chorus)
And I always find, yeah I always find something wrong
You been putting up with my shit just way too long
I’m so gifted at finding what I don’t like the most
So I think it’s time for us to have a toast
Let’s have a toast for the heart broke
Let’s have a toast for the sad souls
Let’s have a toast for the flat broke
Everyone of them that I know
Let’s have a toast for the Losers
Victims of Abusers
People it’s time to stand
Don’t Run away just cause you can
So Today is where we start beginning with the heart
No need to rush since life’s a work of art
Not living in your shoes but I know the road is rough
Don’t matter though cause I know the soul is tough
Enough is enough how much can we take
I want something better Lord please for heaven sake
With tears down my face up each other in a race
I want to make my mark but afraid of showing face
Feeling lower case but I want to capitol
On everything I do and be sure my heart is full
And even over flow with all the love that I know
One day plant my seed and enjoy to watch it grow
Yeah my daughter June, my love I’ll see you soon
Daddy’s working hard to ensure we see it through
So until we see that day we continue on our way
Persevere and all, no matter come what may
(Chorus)

We were sitting out on the steps you know
So Time warp to 98 when these things were kinda great
Naaaa whom I kidding, I was living the life
Not a single care except for homework at night
Stuck in basic math but damnit I tried
Learned some other lessons that I rather further favor
Like Love and Heartbreak by all the notes I gave her
Made some life friends in the middle of the fun
Me and Mr. Baker, were number one
It wasn’t brunch time cause I still called it Recess
Best kind of days were the one’s we had free dress
Taste of whats to come by the bullies and the bullshit
But it’s worth the days and believe me I knew this
So I stuck it through and began the growing process
Loch ness but still shortest of the monsters
Always picked last cause I didn’t have the height
But what I didn’t have I made up in might
Always on and always picked believe I took my licks
Discovered length of strength when I got my ass kicked
Explored the neighborhood and this place I called home
A little taste of life and discovered the unknown
Made it known and this taste, I wouldn’t ever trade
GigaWATT took shots in this game I played
Muscatel Madness was my 8th grade
Sitting back now, ah those were the days
(Chorus) x3
Let’s take it back to those concrete streets
School yard daze no tricks just treats
Playground wack shit good times everlasting
Living the life and life was fantastic
So Time warp twenty zero 3 and find me
Was the new kid but now graduating
Yup senior year and not a fear to find
Fuck my GPA I just want a good time
Enough about the credits and the college to apply
I want to live this moment so I never wonder why
Why I never asked a girl to be with me and skate with me
Spend some time with me and skip complicating
All the stupid things that ends all the dating
false accusations that leads us to hating
Each other and your mother and so I skipped prom
hate to feel rejected I didn’t even ask mom
But before I knew it I’m already moving on
First day of college, what the fuck is going on
Bigger campus little man all the girls around me
Where to begin, for real overwhelming
Fuuuck im gonna be so late.
I cant believe parking really is that ridiculous
Wait, What this? class is canceled?
They really do that here? Like for real?
Yessss I'm going to the beach
I fucking love college
So now I’m here today by lessons yesterday
Schoolyard playground not only for the play
The greatest class I had was out on the blacktop
Life lessons learned even then it don’t stop
I’m learning everyday though the class room has changed
Work, Bills, Bull but the players still the same
Rearranged positions but the bullshit’s the same
We never really grow just move up the next grade
(Chorus) x3
Let’s take it back to those concrete streets
School yard daze no tricks just treats
Playground wack shit good times everlasting
Living the life and life was fantastic
Damn, I guess I never really left school now that I think about it,
But being honest though… I kinda miss it.
(Chorus)
Let’s take it back to those concrete streets
School yard daze no tricks just treats
Playground wack shit good times everlasting
Living the life and life was fantastic

A Part of Me
03:34
|

This my second coming but don’t call me Christ though
But I’m understood the same so I’m on the right road
That’s the path to greatness, to be the one you wont forget
As he who chased his dreams even though they far fetched
Inspired for the same, he told me I’m to blame
If I give up now things will always be the same
Cause when it’s all over will you look back and smile
Or will you frown inside and then fake it in denial
Reminisce of Reminiscing, yeah
Of days not long ago when I was stressing out so
Is this really it? Or is there more to go
Clearly there was more for all the things I found in store
Enjoying what I have but damn I want some more
Love, Gifts, Money Life
Nothing lasts forever so I take it all in stride….
… and just enjoy the ride
My hands up on the wheel while other hand is shifting
Think I got it sorted out? na, I’m still sifting
Through the different bullshit that daily plagues my life
Deciding who to trust as I showcase all the knives
Stuck inside my back cause I just leave em where they at
To just to show you mo' fuckers that there’s nothing on my back jack
React to what I’m saying and let the words sink deep
And just remember this, this is a part of me
(Chorus) x2
This is just a part of me and no one can take it from me
By acting ugly
This is just a part of me and no one can take it from me
This gift is from me
I Love knowingly,
This is just a part of me
This is just a part of me
More than just a number standing single file’ll show ya proof
Polygraph my life and results will say I’m truth
… so there’s your fuckin proof
Clearly evident my entire life is heaven sent
Only way was up and that’s clearly how it went
Want to stop my progress now? Get bent
Cause stopping’s not an option if you placed a bet you lost it
Keeping up reflects your options, exhausted
I’m that underdog that you never saw coming
Straight counted out before you even saw me running
But now I’m running past and I’m running fast
you will finish where I started, dead last
I can’t say prediction when I know that it’s a fact
Observing what I see and what I see is skills you lack
Advancing what I have, and all I have is just my name
It’s time to make a change or my life will stay the same with
Pain, Tears, What if, Lies
Nothing lasts forever so I take it all in stride…
… and just enjoy the ride
Top down volume up stars in the sky
(Chorus) x2
This is just a part of me and no one can take it from me
By acting ugly
This is just a part of me and no one can take it from me
This gift is from me
I Love knowingly,
This is just a part of me
This is just a part of me

Dear Love,

Dear Love,
It's been a wonderful and amazing time to have known you. You came into my life unexpectedly in true love fashion and I was bewitched by the power you wielded. So much so, it seems I wasn't ready nor worthy of the feelings you had surprised me with in my heart. The clouds I had laid my head upon were only equaled by the fires of hell within my heart. Dearest Love I don't regret the time I spent with you, as a matter of fact I'll cherish every moment as if it were an invaluable treasure beyond a wildest dream. I had the opportunity to experience what others can only dream about, and for that I'm lucky. Forever my truest of happiness and heart belongs to you Love, and am somewhat sad to see its come to an end as it has. The decisions I've made, that have resulted in losing what future I can now only dream about, is my one and only regret in life which I am prepared to live with forever. Never the less, I will always love you love, and am sorry I wasn't better prepared or more driven to cherish you as you deserve to be. I hope and pray, I may get a second chance to see you again Love, for now I know the true value and would do nothing as I've done before to ruin it like I did. Love, Iloveyou.......

Who's Fault? Our Fault. yeah
Surprise surprise, here we are again
Same fuckin game but did either really win
And when you think about it, I really fuckin doubt it
Future mirrored past but when it came I fuckin fought it
Love is fucking bullshit but damn I fuckin bought it
Haters on the side but damn they fuckin called it
What you know about it? Were you ever there?
Did you see it all or see enough to even care?
No it wasn’t fair but feelings swear it’s true
Heart has gone to pieces can you at least supply the glue
As I sit alone and begin to piece together
Dreaming of tomorrow and how it will be better
A tear dances down with grace and simply falls below
How you make me high then quickly feel so low
I don’t know
Why you letting go?......
Letting go of everything you had my heart and made it sing
Granted im not perfect but I really do want the ring
Slide it on your finger and then claim you as my queen
But can it ever happen if the love remains unseen
Screaming at each other as I let myself go
Raise my fucking hand where did my mind go
I apologize for every moment of abuse
Hands for your necklace and for when you wore a bruise
Not the kinda gifts that I want to give to you
Not the kinda love that I want to show to you
So I’m not surprised you threw a deuce and said your through
Fronting like no care but in fact I really do
What am I supposed to do? When I’m all by myself
Begin to fade away and escalate to hell
How can you walk away when you did your share of wrong
No apologies and ok with being gone
Lies and hiding facts taking dick and all of that
Justify your actions no regrets to take it back
Ok to break my heart cause you feel I broke yours
No more room for love but I ask what for?
"Things used to be. Now they're not.
Anything but us is who we are.
Disguising ourselves as secret lovers, we've become public enemies. We walk away like strangers in the street. Gone for eternity, we erase one another. No phone calls. No sweet text messages.
We are mere specs of particles, floating, unknown to our partners' existence. So far from where we came. With so much of everything, how do we leave with nothing? Lack of visual empathy equates to the meaning of L.O.V.E. Hatred and attitude tear us entirely.
We meet at opposite poles and no longer can we bond like love birds to a song or flowers to a Daisy. The air smells of rotten love and burned hearts. We have trashed our over cooked love that now accompanies the bin of deceit. Don't turn around. Continue walking away. Disappear into that darkness that rests upon your gritty shoulders. Let that dark cloud follow you wherever you go. So long ex-lover. Farewell."
- Chloe mitchell

This Moment
04:50

(Chorus)
Oh, can't anybody see,
We've got a war to fight,
Never found our way,
Regardless of what they say.
How can it feel, this wrong,
From this moment,
How can it feel, this wrong.
By thy kingdom come set out now it’s done
Now all is said and done I’m standing tall the only one
I made it to the end but I couldn’t comprehend
How and mostly why, did I murder all my friends
Friends till the end but I caused the end’s begin
I can’t fight the fate, but I fought to defend
I struggled for success but now it sucks to be the best
When there’s no one purely left who knows what it meant
To give up everything to go and chase the dream
Unknown and unseen the cost to pay for dreams
Until you’ve given all do you really find it means
That nothing’s as it seems, the sad reality
False fantasies filled with empty galaxies
Not endless space, just room to mislead
Indeed to supplement but I failed in the try
In the still of night, alone and asking why
(Chorus)
I fought to come back but damn my set backs
Back into the distance far in non existence
Trying to make the difference, but coming up the same
Looking to point the finger but finding just my name
I Bow my head in shame and exhale in defeat
Incomplete is me without reaching for the feat
A Victim of deceit all because I lied to me
Thought this was it, but it’s failure on repeat
How can it feel, this wrong,
From this moment,
How can it feel, this wrong.
I reached the pinnacle as I promised not to stop
No time to take a breath till I reached the very top
To the top, to the top, to the top, then I made it
But little was it known the dream was full of steam
All I had imagined was nothing as it seemed
I deemed a valiant effort all to make it true
But in the very end…
… it was all for nothing too
How can it feel, this wrong,
From this moment,
How can it feel, this wrong.

Friendship
Ambition
Persistence
Love
Staring in the mirror, trying to see more clear
Who the fuck are you and where’d the fuck you take julian huh?
… damn we want him back
Let us love him so and get him back on track
Release him from your ways and go your separate ways
He belongs to us not your evil devil ways
….Exorcist the pessimist
…. Julian you hearing this?
Family
Passion
Please forgive me lord for I havn’t been myself
I turned my back on you but can you nurse me back to health
…. Are you all still there?
…. Yes Julian we are
We’ll be here by your side so don’t you ever shed a tear
No your not alone cause we’ll always be right here
We know its what you fear we'll always be right here
... we'll always be right here
