Perfect Essence
(专辑: Capture Enemy Soldiers - 2004)
[UBI:] Before my life took the
direction it has I
use to run around in the
backyard playing catch with my dad Hopping the
fence to play with neighborhood kids It seemed like every day was good Doing stupid shit but never behaving the
way we should A
raised Christian influenced as a
youth by the
crucifix Switched to public education but never did really get used to it In childhood foolishness Went from gifted and talented and honor roll To shop lifting at Conoco Sneaking in Grouper 6
Nemesis on Nintendo Posted up in the
Electronics department at Target All day playing Genesis demos Starving Shined in the
darkness with Kevin And raising funds In the
parking lot of the
supermarket Bumming change for Laser One Running game on Asians, I'd spend hours taking tokens Finding ways to aggravate 'em Beat 'em till the
game was broken With Jason, stealing for me was too easy We use to jack toys, go home, open 'em up Bumping Whodini and the
Fat Boys Mom strove a
trooper Had a
crush on Punky Brewster For years I
wondered if Fred Savage fucked with Winnie Cooper I
was just a
skinny loser A
prepubescent virgin Uncertain and full of question eyes that never seen deception Yes It happened after birth so let's get past the
first impression I
moved to an urban setting now I'm using words for weapons Once passive now turned aggressive, I
guess it's the
Ces that changed me Rap with the
perfect essence expressing most everthing that's Happened since after birth so let's get past the
first impression I
moved to an urban setting now I'm using words for weapons Once passive now turned aggressive, I
guess it's the
Ces that changed me Rap with the
perfect essence expressing what makes me angry Yeah this is that character that I
have been waiting to build That has nothing at all to do with how I'm stating my skill (Nothing at all) Cause I'll stay screaming at you cats till I
turn gray in the
gills I
seen you swerving, going off the
road so straighten the
wheel And while you try to get there first, you know the
race isn't real They say when there's a
bill there's a
way So why you're wasting your will? I
love my memories of my mom and pop but I'm erasing 'em still Took a
few shots and I
chased 'em with pills Cause of this spot that I
grew up's the
only place that I
feel (Only place that I
feel) I
love smashing out on my bike but always hated the
hills Who, me, making a
killing? I
have yet to make one shilling While some look over my shoulder just for the
sake of stealing Aware or not they read your brain I
swear to God you'd be amazed Cause villains these days'll find a
way to rape the
women How many were crushed in rubble, just couldn't escape the
building In war, there is no winner consider the
fate of children (Remember that) Powerless as we're housing terrorists within our borders Men in camouflage and automatic weapons on every corner Bombing the
block outside got you thinking this can't be real (This can't be real) Now you feeling the
way the
kids in Afghanistan feel It happened after birth so let's get past the
first impression I
moved to an urban setting now I'm using words for weapons Once passive now turned aggressive, I
guess it's the
Ces that changed me Rap with the
perfect essence expressing most everthing that's Happened since after birth so let's get past the
first impression I
moved to an urban setting now I'm using words for weapons Once passive now turned aggressive, I
guess it's the
Ces that changed me Rap with the
perfect essence expressing what makes me angry Yeah I've grown accustomed what can I
say, I
know it sucks (Yeah, it sucks) But it's so close to hell I
can almost feel the
gates opening up How's that for some motivation? After we vote to change it And it's legal the
people will see the
last of their sober days then We stay oppressed and I'll actually know we're safe when We raise our voices against the
contracts of this covert nation We're faded into black (fading into black) And I'm making my own arrangements Look past your speculation 'Cause these acts of devastation Won't bring back a
better nation Keep an eye out for the
crack down Try not to act out 'Cause they'll find your sack on the
pat down Crowds now a
days too tough to entertain I
don't know why I
rap You can watch the
world by day by day On C-span and Simulcast I
get depressed and run away And numb the
pain and shit's suppressed Like memories and younger days That hits the
chest like love and hate It's give or take But what a
way To live a
life When men are mice Some picking Ces You pick a
side, whoever pays the
better price Come back to Earth so let's get past the
first impression I
moved to an urban setting now I'm using words for weapons Once passive now turned aggressive, I
guess it's the
Ces that changed me Rap with the
perfect essence expressing most everthing that's Happened since after birth so let's get past the
first impression I
moved to an urban setting now I'm using words for weapons Once passive now turned aggressive, I
guess it's the
Ces that changed me Rap with the
perfect essence expressing what makes me angry
