What lyrics /song phrases stand out to you as particularly. . . . outstanding I'm not a big Jay-Z fan but he had a great line "I feed her 50s until her sh*t made sense [cents?]" The use of the homonyms was great For Ma$e "If I die now My Love will still Haunt You" I like that one too. Rocket River
I killed my dinner with karate Kick him in the face, taste the body Shallow work is the work that I do I'm also partial to "Ghetto Vet."
"Nothing lasts forever, even cold November rain" love that song ...one of the best guitar solos ever IMO
A couple of verses from Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog" - One of the best songs ever made, IMO. Didn't take too long 'fore I found out, what people mean my down and out. Spent my money, took my car, started telling her friends she wants to be a star. I don't know but I been told, a big-legged woman ain't got no soul. All I ask for when I pray, steady rollin' woman gonna come my way. Need a woman gonna hold my hand, won't tell me no lies, make me a happy man. The third verse from Ludacris's "Number One Spot" - I think all the lyrics in this song are genius. They sound a lot better when you actually hear him flowin'. Causin lyrical disasters, it's the master Make music for Mini-Me's, models and Fat Bastards These women tryin yo get me out my Pelle Pelle They strip off my clothes and tell me, "Get in my belly!" Stay on the track, hit the ground runnin like Flo-Jo Sent back in time and I've never lost my mojo Ladies and gentlemen ahh, boys and girls Ludacris sent down to take over the whole world!
Have you come here for forgiveness, Have you come to raise the dead Have you come here to play Jesus to the lepers in your head Got a gun, fact I got two That's ok man cause I love god Glorified version of a pellet gun feels so manly, when armed They're piling in the back seat. They're generating steam heat. Pulsating to the back beat. Blitzkrieg Bop.
but it's rushing around seems what's wrong the world don't lose the dreams inside your head they'll only be there 'til you're dead dream Dave Matthews Band - You Never Know
"....I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black..." from Nirvana's Heart Shaped Box. Also, from the same song, "...throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back..."
I like Nas stuff, like this song he had out not too long ago: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/nas/rule.html
Ice Cube... Just wakin up in the mornin gotta thank God I don't know but today seems kinda odd No barkin from the dog, no smog And momma cooked a breakfast with no hog (damn) I got my grub on, but didn't pig out Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out (Whassup?) Hooked it up for later as I hit the do' Thinkin will I live, another twenty-fo' I gotta go cause I got me a drop top And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop Had to stop, at a red light Lookin in my mirror and not a jacker in sight And everything is alright I got a beep from Kim, and she can f**k all night Called up the homies and I'm askin y'all Which park, are y'all playin basketball? Get me on the court and I'm trouble Last week f***d around and got a triple double Freakin n***z everyway like M.J. I can't believe, today was a good day...
This has always been in my estimation the greatest verse ever spit. Now I was raised as a young black male In order to get paid, forced to make crack sales Caught a n**** so they send me to these overpacked jails In the cell, countin days in this livin black Hell, do you feel me? Keys to ignition, use at your discretion Roll with a twelve gauge pump for protection N***** hate me in the section from years of chin checkin Turn to Smith and Wesson war weapons Heavenly Father I'm a soldier, I'm gettin hotter cause the world's gettin colder, baby let me hold ya Talk to my guns like they fly b****es All you bustas best to run look at my b****es Now I know the answers to the question, do dreams come true Still starin at the world through my rearview (I say) They got me starin at the world through my rearview Go on baby scream to God, he can't hear you I can feel your heart beatin fast cause it's time to die Gettin high, watchin time fly -- and all my mother****ers can die - 2Pac, Starin through my rearview, off the Phil Collins sample. Oh and BTW, I was offline for about a week so the Rap Tourney was delayed, I almost have the list ready and we'll probably see it up by the start of next week.
Mother's Little Helper (Jagger/Richards) What a drag it is getting old "Kids are different today" I hear ev'ry mother say Mother needs something today to calm her down And though she's not really ill There's a little yellow pill She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day "Things are different today" I hear ev'ry mother say Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And two helps her on her way, get her through her busy day Doctor please some more of these Outside the door, she took four more What a drag it is getting old "Men just aren't the same today" I hear ev'ry mother say They just don't appreciate that you get tired They're so hard to satisfy. You can tranquilize your mind So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight Doctor please some more of these Outside the door, she took four more What a drag it is getting old "Life's just much too hard today" I hear ev'ry mother say The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose No more running to the shelter of a mother's little helper They just helped you on your way through your busy dying day
Dude, I don't know about that... you'd probably cause 3814 to have a mental breakdown. He seems on edge with the tourneys, so if you post that, he might find a way to crash the site. http://bbs2.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?threadid=95264 The opening verse from Dr. Dre's "Forgot About Dre" - Arguably one of the best rap songs ever. His attitude, the lyrics, and the way he responded to all the critics out there was unforgettable for me. It was also the first song Eminem was on, so that was nice. I rap the whole verse along with him everytime I hear it, aren't I special? Y'all know me, still the same O.G., but I been low key Hated on by most these n***** wit no cheese, no deals and no G's No wheels and no keys, no boats, no snowmobiles, and no ski's Mad at me 'cause I can finally afford to provide my family wit groceries Got a crib wit a studio and it's all full of tracks to add to the wall full of plaques Hangin' up in the office in back of my house like trophies Did y'all think I'ma let my dough freeze? ** please You better bow down on both knees Who you think taught you to smoke trees? Who you think brought you the oldies? Eazy-E's, Ice Cube's, and D.O.C's The Snoop D-O-double-G's and the group that said mother-"**** Tha Police" Gave you a tape full of dope beats to bump when you stroll through in your hood And when your album sales wasn't doin too good who's the Doctor they told you to go see? Y'all better listen up closely All you n***** that said that I turned pop, or The Firm flopped Y'all are the reason that Dre ain't been gettin no sleep so **** Y'ALL, all of y'all; if y'all don't like me, BLOW ME! Y'all are gonna keep ****in around wit me and turn me back to the old me
". . . . preparing for the feast The stabbing with their skinny knives but they still can't kill the beast" " . . has alot of pretty pretty boys . .. that she calls friends" "you can check out any time you want But you can't ever Leave" Hotel California Trying to figure out what this song is all about still Rocket Rivert
Did we expect that life was ever fair my God I sowed a field of rose and reaped a whipping rod -------- How many roads must a man walk down Before you call him a man? Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail Before she sleeps in the sand? Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly Before they're forever banned? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind. How many times must a man look up Before he can see the sky? Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have Before he can hear people cry? Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows That too many people have died? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind. How many years can a mountain exist Before it's washed to the sea? Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head, Pretending he just doesn't see? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind. ------ Oh - and any song by Paul Simon. "Something so Right", "Old Friends" and "American Tune" are some of my favorites.
