- A Girl Named Hope
She abandoned me left out in the cold
No suprises I guess that's how it goes
Sits across from me in a booth in this dive
I contemplate how much more I can survive
But- I'm alive so I should be content
Then tell why the hell my whole world is bent
I was send to make and frustrate the population
Inbetween the alcohol and the copulation
- A Song About A Friend
These headphones keep me from rememberin' (rememberin')
Also guilty of letting me not forget (also guilty)
What type of harvest will September bring? (beckoning)
Everyone to put him to that test (Somebody please kill me)
I've got a sickness, it feels like love
It's not contagious, take off the gloves
Drop your defenses, apply a coat of perfect
I'll form the sentences you try to interpret
- Aint Nobody
Spoke up, hold up, I'm on that grown-up stuff.
I'll be the butte of your joke, 'cause I can hold my cup.
You jumped in that tub, you're trying to soak it up.
You chose to go and get stuck, I'm not your gold rush.
Yea I showed up. Was hoping to post up.
Every few moments you move more closer.
I notice the donuts. I'm open to no such.
Like it's my obligation to show love, you know what?
- Always Coming Back Home To You
He held the register open while he counted her change
I was next in line which meant I was invisible
From where I stood I could see that the till was full
He didn't look the type to play superhero
So I stepped forth and paid for my cigarettes
Crept out the stores front door to chase a little breath
Bengals in my head, shake the song off
Another manic Monday night, its gonna be a long walk
- Became
It's no surprise, I overslept
Put my boots on, and climbed out my tent
I didn't see you, assumed you were sleeping
Immediately start a fire, 'cause it's freezing
I can't believe you went camping in the cold
I'm in the wilderness standing in some snow
A late start, but we can still catch up
You need to wake up, we should eat and then pack up
- Breathing
"Take a deep breath relax, don't push it on out."(x2)
Somebody please explain to them what it be about
"Take a deep breath relax, don't push it on out."(x2)
Somebody please explain to them what it be about
They can't sleep yet, too many re-grets
Got em running round in circles for the re-spect
They need the gossip, but where's the logic?
- Freefallin'
[Chorus: 2X]
Freefallin', when you're shook from the pack
Keep walking, lift a foot, leave a track
We often got to look for the path
These problems are the good ones to have
[Slug]
Nobody want to struggle at home
- Fuck You Lucy
Leave me never would you, you show could I if
She said that she still wants a friendship
She cant live her life without me as a friend
I cant figure out why I'd give a damn to what she wants
I don't understand the now before the then
Most of this garbage I write
- Get Fly
[chorus]
They want us to fight but we just wanna get high
Work all day all night tryin to get fly
When I get some money imma buy me some time
I cant fight your war until I’m finished with mine
(x2)
I used to be mad at the government
- God Loves Ugly
I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp
I live life like the captain of a sinking ship
The one thing that i can guarantee
I'm like a stepping razor, i suggest you stay fair with me
Been payin dues for a decade plus,
Before that i was just another face on the bus
Tappin my foot, to the beat on the radio
Dreamin 'bout the mic and the money and the ladies
- Graffiti
I wrote this one when I was still alive
Hey you, yeah you, listen
And if I had a horse
To climb up and ride off into the warmth
I'd never turn 'round
I'd just kick up this dust 'til I find where I'm found
And If I qualified as a genius
Maybe I'd live out my dreams and die dreamless
- Guarantees
These warehouse wages
Kill the ends introduction
man I should have schooled it up
When I was younger should have stuck to plan
Always had the dreams of being more self assertive
And my kids a teenager now he needs the health insurance
So break my body
Break break my soul down
- Guns and Cigarettes
Rappers steppin' to me
They wanna get some
But most of them should go and try to boost their monthly income
Speaking over beats is the only time I feel complete
I don't hear the weak and I don't fear defeat
So what you got?
Connect the dots, I'll raise the pot
Remove the blood clot from the brain of hip hop
- If I Was Santa Claus
[Slug]
If I was a rich man
I'd buy you some shoes
Tall boots for all the dirt you walk through
What would that do?
Enable you to deal
Without schooling you on how to touch what's real
And if I was a smart man
- In Her Music Box
She had a bad dream in the back seat
the same one as yesterday, the same one as last week
surrounded by her favorite favorites,
elmo, barbie, her purple baby blanket
and that little match box looks just like dads car
its fast on the lever, pretends its nascar
it jumps over elmo cause it can fly that far
with daddy in the front seat frontin' like a rapstar
- Just For Show
So what you’re saying, I hear complaining,
I could repeat every step you’ve made…
I treated you better back in the day,
Now you’re feeling like I’m changing like I’m not the same!
I used to force your heart to run a race,
And now it’s like… that it’s be running out of patience!
Frustration, you want some separation,
You want no placement within this mess I’m making.
- Like The Rest Of Us
[V1]
See I've been here for thirty-some years
Lookin' at myself in the same dirty mirror
So it ain't like I don't comprehend
Open that bottle, swallow that friend
No crime to take a little too much
Got time to drink away a few months
Got a little cocaine habit
- Like Today
In tomorrow I see no promise
and yesterday was like today
Woke up, got up, near eleven o'clock
butt naked except I was wearing my socks
and that's cool, 'cause most the time this floor is cold
stand up and stretch look around this mess
my place has been a cage since she left me
- Lovelife
Individually wrapped, placed in neat little rows
Becoming A piece, of everything that grows
Some numbers, A name, to indicate you played the game
Came empty handed and left the same
A soul is A soul and A shell is A shell
The border in between is full of everything you felt
Some cling to A cross because they're tired and lost
They leave it up to the weather to measure the cost
- Me
Yeah, the child in the mirror was homely
So he learned early on how to switch into low-key
Little person, observant and accurate
Grew the skills to argue and the passion to back it with
Kick over the blocks just to rebuild them
'Cause mom and pop used to pop, sound familiar?
Daddy had to leave, but Mama kept hurting
So we stepped up to help be an anger and a burden
- Millenium Dodo
I only act like an asshole
Why don't ya'll stay in back
Let the man grow
I can't tell what town this is
But I know that bill was a counterfeit
Hye bartender bump a top jar
Gotta think about where to dump this cop car
I'm too slick so fuck your bullshit
- Modern Man's Hustle
[Slug]
The first time I met the devil was at a motel 6
She left hell to spend her weekends on earth just for kicks
Sexy little bitch, shorter then expected
About 5 foot 5, getting thick in the breast and thighs
Beautiful dark eyes, a strong stare
Large lips, soft hands and long hair
I said I'll make you smile for the simple fact I'm good at it
- My Key
i've got perfect misinterpret
handful of my family tree
dress rehearsal death and birth
we'll sing inside my key
i watched the sun set
i saw the snow fall
i stole paint to write your name on the stone wall
- My Notes
saw the sun rise, then the green grew
Weaving through the concrete cracks that we cling to
As long as I can hit my notes, I'ma
Try to keep up with my folks
I smelled rain that brought the flash flood
With a river of permanent tear drops and rap hugs
Bad luck, play with the effortless
So I backed away from quick benefits
- National Disgrace
[Slug]
(I pledge allegiance to Budweiser and free drugs)
Peace to Rick James, Anna Nicole Smith, Bill Clinton
And Motley Crue
And anyone else who has ever utilized their 15 minutes
Of fame to realize their true dreams of being an
Absolute jerk off, just to keep the masses entertained
This goes out to learning from the mistakes of others
- One Of A Kind
Pain [3x]
The way she listen to what the mc said
She might as well plug the RCA cords into her head
Taking that into consideration at the center of creation
Cats still criticize my frustration raps
Well off he goes, coming cop some flows
- painting
[Slug - Verse 1]
Ain't no colour paint gonna cover the stains
The pictures on the wall will all remain
And even though he's home now, sound and safe
Surrounded by the faces that he place his faith
The images visit from the past he witnessed
Can't stay away from the memories
Sticks with each detail, embedded in stone
- Postal Lady
I wipe the crust from the corner of my eye
I walk towards the kitchen and pour myself a coffee
I'll prolly step on a Lego just to verify
That I'm still alive and y'all ain't killed me already
Daddy loves you, I say what's up to the baby
Like, "What's up, baby?" You're such a baby, huh
And then I find the other kids and give 'em all high fives
Say good mornin' to my wife, it's a glorious life, right?
- Puppets
I know a guy with the rock star life
But he stil don't fly so he's mad at the sky
He sits me down he kicks his wisdom
He's been around now give him a listen
Seems like he's got a lot of complaints
About how nowadays things ain't the same
Used to place some faith in the basement
A toast for this guy
- Saves The Day
From the fifth floor, I schedule my meeting with the moon
Stress, let it go, so it don't completely consume.
When the vegetables fight back, and the grass starts to sting
I yell up to Heaven to get me the hell out of this dream
I fell out of my stream of self-consciousness
And I've got welts on my mind to signify all my accomplishments.
No matter whose math you use to count to ten,
Progress will never rest in the hand that has no head.
- Scapegoat
It's the caffeine, the nicotine, the miligrams of tar
It's my habitat, it needs to be cleaned, it's my car
It's the fast talk they use to abuse and feed my brain
It's the cat box it needs to be changed, it's the pain
It's women, it's the plight for power it's government
It's the way you're giving knowledge
slow with thought control and subtle hints
It's rubbing it, It's itching it, It's applying cream
- Self Hate Bad Dub
[Verse 1:]
As I walk through this cluster
Of people that I look upon as buster,
I continue to keep one of my feet in this gutter, Maybe that's my way of puttin' the day in place, Ain't too much okay you can tell by how I wear This face,
But don't you worry, this is my journey,
Fellas keep your fists up women keep it dirty. Fly little birdy as I walk through this puzzle, Puttin' it together makin' sure the laugh stays Muffled.
They congregated on the corner of the block, Tryin' to come up with the plan so they can close Down the shop.
Unsuccessfully all attempts oppressin' we, Testing we, bringing we one closer to the Destiny. Yes it be the fool that burnt down the School, tryin' to turn around the frown and make Everything seem cool, sittin' on my stool showing Off my muscles, caught between a chuckle and a Fuck you and I love you. They buckle and bend When I start up the binge, this structure can't Handle the whole weight. They struggle cause they Pride won't let em give in, so I'm a let em cuddle With they own self hate.
- She's Enough
If she want it
I'm gonna give it up
if she running low
I'm gonna fill her cup
if it spill, chill, Imma clean it up
I'll be right here cause she's enough
if she needed the money
I would stick you up
- Shoulda Known
Naked in the bathtub, sittin' on the porcelin
Waitin for that little hurricane to pull your torso
And the water don't run; just drips like rain
Still drips like a painkiller drips to the veins
Fill it up with a bag of that happy stuff
Cause the way she runs out you can tell she ain't had enough
Good times goddess, my goodness
Goth fingernail polish autopilot footprints
- Shrapnel
[Slug]
Shrapnel...
I can't remember who asked me, but someone asked me
How long I thought that I would be allowed atop this trash heap
I didn't answer cause I'm tired of criticizing the masses
Inspired the support the devouring of the self
All the power to the people who dig potholes
Placed me in a glass case full of lost treasures and fossils
- Summer Song
Slug: [Verse 1]
She came back to visit, she says
'Cause in some ways, Minneapolis is more real than L.A.
But I won't go to the triple-rock on a tuesday
Too many people pop out of they pimples and play
And at night, we can watch these people in these bars
They're all insane, they all know my name
- Sunshine
Ain't no way to explain or say
How painful the hangover was today
In front of the toilet, hands and knees
Trying to breathe in between the dry heaves
My baby made me some coffee
Afraid that if I drink some it's probably coming right back out me
Couple of advil, relax and chill
At a standstill with how bad I feel
- The Best Day
I had a rough day, but that's life, it happens.
Woke up on the dark side of my mattress.
I guess I forgot to set my clock, overslept almost lost the job.
Then to top it off, I'm kind of hungry,
But can't eat 'til I find my money.
It's in my wallet but my wallet ain't in my pocket,
Can't remember the last time I saw it.
And they don't want me in a bad mood,
- The Loser Wins
You know you fucked up right?
Bye bye, wish you luck with life
But I'd be damned if, I let you manage
to bless that blade and keep taking advantage
Look man, yeah you shook my hand
But that was back then, we're not good fam
I'm the fool cause I started to be cool with him
But I got schooled in the art of opportunism
- The Waitress
[Slug - Verse 1]
A city full of people and my favorite is that waitress
And she treats me like some type of common vagrant
I see her everyday, but there's nothing to say
Unless I decide to step inside of that cafe
I only get to sit if I buy something to eat
Otherwise it's best to keep my feet moving down that street
And god damn she's a hard bitch
- The Woman With the Tattooed Hands
I used to know this woman who had the most beautiful
tattoos on the top sides of both of her hands
she was forty three years old and as far as I know
had never yet been with a man
its not that she wasn't attractive she was beatiful
but its the way that she interacted
she was aggressively passive to the point where she
would of intimidated any mitt that ever tried to catch her

To All My Friends Lyrics Atmosphere
Yeah, I saw the sign in the window? For the job?
Yeah I got a high school education, but that's all!
- Trying To Find A Balance
[Slug]
They love the taste of blood
Now I don't know what that means, but I know that I mean it
Maybe they're as evil as they seem
Or maybe I only look out the window when it's scenic
"Atmosphere finally made a good record."
Yeah right, that shit almost sounds convincing
The last time I felt as sick and contradictive as this
- Vampires
I do believe in monsters, I call them officers
I know enough to know to keep an eye on how I talk to ya's
Some of y'all at peace, but even one to many
Still at peace and slumber for the reading of the beast,
There's no release, she keeps, and teaches no remorse
More resembling of a thief than a horse
Plans, long range, attached to some thangs
And an arm that's strong, watch the song when it change
- Who I'll Never Be
She locked herself in that room
with a full view of a full moon
and this where she comes to fly
when she wanna disappear from what's outside.
I try not to make it obvious
she doesn't know there's an audience.
These walls are ripped and thin
So it ain't my fault that I'm listenin'.
- Yesterday
[Verse 1:]
I thought I saw you yesterday
But I didn't stop, 'cause you was walkin' the opposite way
I guess I coulda' shouted out ya name
But even if it was you, I don't know what I would say
We could sit and reminisce about the old school
Maybe share a cigarette, because we both fools
Chop it up and compare perspectives
- You
You love the people that love you.
You hear the music they move to.
You give your ode to the fall through.
But you don't know you don't know you don't know you don't know.
You love the people that love you.
You hear the music they move to.
You give your ode to the fall through.
But you don't know you don't know you don't know you don't know you.
- Your Glasshouse
Woke up to that familiar feeling
Staring at an unfamiliar ceiling
Still got your jeans on but you're topless
Headache and the stomach feels nauseous
Grab your shirt off the bedroom floor
And trying to recollect the night before
How'd you get from the bar to this mattress?
And when you got here then what happened?
- Your Name Here
Heyyy
How you doing?
Ain't seen you in a long
Is everything all fine?
Doing your best?
I'm glad to hear it
Its all progress
Yeah that's the spirit
