On The Other End

(album: The Green Book - 2003)

[Jamie Madrox]
Put me on public display and showcase
So there's an equal opportunity for everyone to hate me
I know you think it's a lie and it's a scam
Fuck the music, fuck the time, and fuck who I am
From where I stand
We digest shit like flies on trashcans
Overseers of the east revive wanting pentagrams
Time to open your mind
The possess by the rhymers eventually how they wind up
Damage, innocence isn't a friend
So it's hard to overlook and pretend where it all started
Half-hearted and semi-skilled
Still today unfuckwithable and unreal
Unbearable and unheard
Unmentioned and disrespected
I'm on levels and just worth
Subtract doesn't rob us of our confidence
But obstacles and booby traps are hateration nonsense

[Chorus]
Now on the other end of this microphone
Is the problems of a man whose mind is fucked up
And on the other side of the speaker spark
Is a nation that don't give a fuck!(You think we don't care?)
Now on the other end of the raps we spit
You can see that we don't give a shit (I think you don't care?)
And on the other side of the music we play
I question if you still relate (Can you, can you relate?)

[Monoxide Child]
Now I been both parted and spit on
Laughed at and hit on
You never had a clue that you were fucking with a time bomb
Now people see me on the streets and wanna talk
But when I lived right down the block though it was never worth the walk
And I ain't gotta talk, all I had to do was sit and listen
Home in the dark hile you hope that I diminish
And when I finish the judge will give me 20 years flat
Cause I went up in the studio and murdered the track
You got me pissed off and angry, you thought this would change me?
You gotta come better than that, I ain't afraid see
Your pitt bulls are dead and whe're the only dogs left instead
To rightfully guide the mis-lead
It's been 10 long years and all my blood, sweat, and tears
It's the reason I'm standing right here
Willing to die for mine, blinded by the shadows of crooks
Another day another page in the book

[Chorus]
Are you ready? (Ready)
See us for who we are we ain't have no worrie right here
Are you ready? (Ready)
Do you relate to the paint and what we're saying in the music that you claim to hear
Ready
See us for who we are we ain't have no worrie right here
Are you ready? (Ready)
Do you relate to the paint and what we're saying in the music that you claim to hear
Ready
See us for who we are we ain't have no worrie right here
Are you ready? (Ready)
