Pick up your microphones ha ha

Pick up your microphones

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Say me say Many moni, Say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Say me say Many moni, Say me say many, many, many

I get mad frustrated when I rhyme

Thinking of all them kids who try to do this

For all the wrong reasons

Seasons change, mad things rearrange

But it all stays the same like the love doctor Strange

I'm tame like the rapper,

Get red like a snapper when they do that

Got your whole block saying "True dat"

If only they knew that,

It was you who was irregular,

Sold your soul for some secular

Muzak that's wack,

Plus you use that loop over and over

Claiming that you got a new style

Your attempts are futile, ooh child

Your puerile,

Brain waves are sterile

You can't create, you just wait to take, my tape's

Laced with malice

Hands get calloused

From grippin' microphones from here to Dallas

Go ask Alice if you don't believe me,

I get Inner Visions like Stevie

See me, ascend from the chalice like the weed be

Indeed be like Khalil Muhammad

MC's make me vomit

I get controversial

Freak your style with no rehearsal

Oh, contraire mon frere

don't you even go there[/u]

Me without a mic is like a beat without a snare

I dare to tear into your ego,

We go, way back like some ganja and pelequo

Or Coleco, Vision

My mind makes incisions in your anatomy

And I'll back this with Deuteronomy

Or Leviticus, God made this word

You can't get with this

Sweet like licorice,

Dangerous like syphillis, yeah.

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do you rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

I used to be underrated

Now I take iron, makes my shit constipated

I'm more concentrated.

So on my day off,

With David Sonnenberg I play golf

Run through Crown Heights screaming out Mazel Tov

Problem with no man

Before black, I'm first human

Appetite to write like Frederick douglass with a slave hand

Street pressure word to poppa, I ain't goin' under

One day I'll have a label and make deals with Tommy Motolla

Momma always told me "You're one in a million"

Always watch your back, never tangle with Haitian Sicilians

Now I got a record deal, "How does it feel?"

I'm never gonna survive unless I get crazy like Seal.

Cause the whole world's out of order

So at night the fiend's dance on Grease with John Travolta

One got slaughtered as he coughed blood from his mouth

The other tried to duck and caught a left with my Guinness Stout

Brother brother can't you get this through your head

It's a set up by the fed's they're scoping us with their Infra - reds.

How many mic's do you rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do I rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

Too many MC's not enough Mic's

Exit your show like I exit the turnpike

Dice and dynamite like dolomite

double deuce delight, I don't Dick Van Dyke

Startlight to starbrite the freaks come out at night

Like my man Wyclef (I wear my sunglasses at night)

And my panache will mosh your entourage

Squash your squad and hide your body under my garage.

And when the cops come lookin'

I'll be bookin' to Brooklyn

Leave the trails broken flippin' tokens to Hoboken

Fugees - How Many Mics

 

A clean getaway like Alec Baldwin

Drivin' in my fast car playin' Tracy Chapman

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do you rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Many moni, say me say many, many, many

How many mic's do we rip on the daily

Many moni, Say me say many, many, many, many

Many, many, many, moni, many, many, many, many, many, many, moni

Matisyahu - King Without a Crown

 

 

You're all that I have and you're all that I need

Each and every day I pray to get to know you please

I want to be close to you, yes I'm so hungry

You're like water for my soul when it gets thirsty

Without you there's no me

You're the air that I breathe

Sometimes the world is dark and I just can't see

With these, demons surround all around to bring me down to negativity

But I believe, yes I believe, I said I believe

I'll stand on my own two feet

Won't be brought down on one knee

Fight with all of my might and get these demons to flee

Hashem's rays fire blaze burn bright and I believe

Out of darkness comes light, twilight unto the heights

Crown Heights burnin' up all through till midnight

Said, thank you to my God, now I finally got it right

And I'll fight with all of my heart, and all a' my soul, and all a' my might

What's this feeling?

My love will rip a hole in the ceiling

Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being

Sing to my god all these songs of love and healing

Want Moshiach now so it's time we start revealing

What's this feeling?

My love will rip a hole in the ceiling

Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being

Sing to my God all these songs of love and healing

Want Moshiach now

Strip away the layers and reveal your soul

Got to give yourself up and then you become whole

You're a slave to yourself and you don't even know

You want to live the fast life but your brain moves slow

If you're trying to stay high then you're bound to stay low

You want God but you can't deflate your ego

If you're already there then there's nowhere to go

If you're cup's already full then its bound to overflow

If you're drowning in the water's and you can't stay afloat

Ask Hashem for mercy and he'll throw you a rope

You're looking for help from God you say he couldn't be found

Looking up to the sky and searchin' beneath the ground

Like a King without his Crown

Yes, you keep fallin' down

You really want to live but can't get rid of your frown

Tried to reach unto the heights and wound bound down on the ground

Given up your pride and the you heard a sound

Out of night comes day and out of day comes light

Nullified to the One like sunlight in a ray,

Makin' room for his love and a fire gone blaze

Makin' room for his love and a fire gone blaze

What's this feeling?

My love will rip a hole in the ceiling

Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being

Sing to my God all these songs of love and healing

Want Moshiach now so it's time we start revealing

What's this feeling?

My love will rip a hole in the ceiling

Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being

Sing to my God all these songs of love and healing

Want Moshiach now

And see, I lift up my eyes where my help come from

And I seen it circling around from the mountain

Thunder!

You feel it in your chest

You keep my mind at ease and my soul at rest

You're not vexed

When I look to the sky where my help come from

And I've seen it circling around from the mountain

Thunder!

You feel it in your chest

Lord Raise Me Up - Matisyahu

 

Said I been gone for so long where my mind been at

Won't you please wake me up won't you please bring me back

Daydream fantasy and my mind went to sleep

Eyes closed up from you with my heart heavy

So won't you please wake me up and shake me up and take me up said babylon will make me shock wave yes I had enough

So open up and lift the gates redemption coming like a run away truck

Op! diggy do-do-do, you make my heart want to serve you and I'm bound to erupt you lift me up from quick sand in a world gone corrupt no longer stuck up up and away we go Yerushalayim is our home

(chorus:

Said lord raise me up from the ground I've been here so long I said lord raise me up from the ground) bass man!

When it started it'd be etched into my brain elevation

The shield that david blazed, into my brain waves

And I'm raisin' my soul like a sword in ancient days

When protection surrounded me like the sun's rays

Started it'd be etched into my brain elevation

The shield that david blazed, into my brain waves

And I'm Raisin' my soul like a sword in ancient days

When protection surrounded me Like the sun's rays

(chorus)

Julia Michaels - Heaven

 

[intro]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh

 

[Verse 1]

Love's my religion, but he was my faith

Something so sacred, so hard to replace

Fallin' for him was like fallin' from grace

All wrapped in one, he was so many sins

Would have done anything, everything for him

And if you ask me, I would do it again

 

[Chorus]

No need to imagine 'cause I know it's true

They say "All good boys go to heaven"

But bad boys bring Heaven to you

It's automatic, it's just what they do

They say "All good boys go to heaven"

But bad boys bring Heaven to you

 

[Verse 2]

You don't realise the power they have

Until they leave you and you want them back

Nothing in this world prepares you for that

I'm not ashamed that he wasn't the one

Had no idea what we would become

There's no regrets, I just thought it was fun

 

[Chorus]

No need to imagine 'cause I know it's true

They say "All good boys go to heaven"

But bad boys bring Heaven to you

It's automatic, it's just what they do

They say "All good boys go to heaven"

But bad boys bring Heaven to you

 

[bridge]

Hurts to remember the moment we met

The touch that he planted, the garden he left

I guess the rain was just half that effect

 

[Chorus]

No need to imagine 'cause I know it's true

They say "All good boys go to heaven"

But bad boys bring Heaven to you

It's automatic, it's just what they do

They say "All good boys go to heaven"

But bad boys bring Heaven to you

 

[Outro]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh

Flume - Never Be Like You feat. Kai

 

 

[Verse 1: Kai]

What I would do to take away this fear of being loved

Allegiance to the pain

Now I'm f***ed up and I'm missing you

He'll never be like you

I would give anything to change this fickle-minded heart

That loves fake shiny things

Now I'm f***ed up and I'm missing you

He'll never be like you

 

[Chorus: Kai]

I'm only human, can't you see? I made, I made a mistake

Please just look me in my face, tell me everything's okay

'Cause I got it, ooh, he'll never be like you

I'm only human, can't you see? I made, I made a mistake

Please just look me in my face, tell me everything's okay

'Cause I got it, ooh, he'll never be like you

 

[Verse 2: Kai]

How do I make you wanna stay?

Hate sleeping on my own, missing the way you taste

Now I'm f***ed up and I'm missing you

He'll never be like you

Stop looking at me with those eyes

Like I could disappear and you wouldn't care why

Now I'm f***ed up and I'm missing you

He'll never be like you

 

[Chorus: Kai]

I'm only human, can't you see? I made, I made a mistake

Please just look me in my face, tell me everything's okay

'Cause I got it, ooh, he'll never be like you

I'm only human, can't you see? I made, I made a mistake

Please just look me in my face, tell me everything's okay

'Cause I got it, ooh, he'll never be like you

 

[bridge: Kai]

I'm falling on my knees, forgive me, I'm a f***ing fool

I'm begging, darling, please, absolve me of my sins, won't you?

I'm falling on my knees, forgive me, I'm a f***ing fool

I'm begging, darling, please, absolve me of my sins, won't you?

 

[Chorus: Kai]

I'm only human, can't you see? I made, I made a mistake

Please just look me in my face, tell me everything's okay

'Cause I got it, ooh, he'll never be like you

I'm only human, can't you see? I made, I made a mistake

Please just look me in my face, tell me everything's okay

'Cause I got it, ooh, he'll never be like you

 

[Outro: Kai]

Baby, baby, please believe me

C'mon, take it easy

Please don't ever leave me, ooh

He'll never be like you

Gravity - John Mayer

 

[instrumental]

 

[Chorus]

Gravity is working against me

And gravity wants to bring me down

 

[Verse 1]

Oh, I'll never know

What makes this man, with all the love that his heart can stand

Dream of ways to throw it all away

 

[Chorus]

Woah, woah

Gravity is working against me

And gravity wants to bring me down

 

[Verse 2]

Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good

And can't sustain like one half could

It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees

 

[Guitar Solo]

 

[Verse 3]

Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good

And can't sustain like one half could

It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees

 

[Chorus]

Woah, woah

Gravity, stay the hell away from me

Woah, woah

Gravity has taken better men than me

Now, how can that be?

 

[Outro]

Just keep me where the light is

Just keep me where the light is

Just keep me where the light is

Come on, keep me where the light is

Come on, keep me where the light is

Come on, keep me where, now, keep me where the light is
