Xzibit - The foundation

QUOTE
When I look you in your eyes I can see my own
Straight love manifested in flesh and bone
You's a breath of fresh air in this world of ######
You was born to be a soldier don't ever forget
Hit back when hit
Use force that's effective
All these bitches and women
Son, please be selective
This is California can't stick your ###### in everything
We will survive necessarily by any means
Let no man ever hold you down or supress you
It's the 90's the police just arrest you,
disrespect you on occasion take life
By the time you come of age they'll probably blast on sight
It's a shame they protect them but try to serve us
When your neck is on the line stand ground then bust
In God we trust but just incase keep it loaded and locked
Ready to rock
Then shake the spot
The Foundation

You came from a long line of killers and drug dealers
Who forever smoke bud
So it's probably in your blood
Realize you can only run the streets so long
Then the streets run you into the ground then gone
It's kinda ruff trying to teach you what's right from wrong
Same ###### different day
It's the same ol' song
If the time ever comes that I meet my match
Take control of my assets
love startin' from scratch
Take care of your mother
Keep yourself on track
Just cause niggas get behind you don't mean they got your back
Beware of the serpent
Cause there's a time in life the mothaloveer will strike
And try to make you loose sight
Don't be a fake mothaloveer tryin' to keep ###### real
Fill cassettes with idle threats with no guts to kill
Son if you ever pull heat
Then use it
If you got a chance to walk away
Then do it
Total domination takes full concentration in all situations
A solid foundation

You are the foundation
Begining of a new generation
I remember hospital hallway pacin'
I was anxious as love to see your face shine
Only to find that yours looked like mine
So it's like I'm livin' twice at the exact same time
In this life you can't press stop
Then press rewind
Gotta live to the fullest never follow behind no man
Have your own plan, expand your mind
Ain't no paper thin game to raise wannabe thugs
This is nothing but love
Via sattelite Muggs
Take heed when it's your turn to bring new life
Make sure it's the woman you gonna make your wife
Be prepared for the worst
But expect the best
No matter where life takes you
Come home to the West
Survival takes more than just gats and guns
That's words to live by
From a father to a son
Foundation

I've got 2. One is Europa by Santana but, it's an instrumental. And this one:



Billy Vera and the Beaters -
At This Moment
1987
--------------

What did you think I would do at this moment
When you're standing before me
With tears in your eyes
Trying to tell me that you
Have found you another
You just don't love me no more

What did you think I would say at this moment
When I'm faced with the knowledge
That you just don't love me
Did you think I would curse you
Or say things to hurt you
`Cause you just don't love me no more

Did you think I could hate you
Or raise my hands to you
Now come on, you know me too well
How could I hurt you
When darlin I love you
And you know I'd never hurt you
Oh...

What do you think I would give at this moment
If you stay I'd subtract twenty years from my life
I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on
If I could just hold you again

I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on, baby
If I could just hold you
If I could just hold you.....
Again.

This is one of my favorites, it's really kind of a Christmas song, but I really love it:

MARY, DID YOU KNOW?
(buddy greene, mark lowry)

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
That your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you?ve delivered
Will soon deliver you

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?
Did you know
That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little baby
You?ve kissed the face of god

Mary, did you know?
The blind will see
The deaf will hear
And the dead will live again
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of the lamb

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy is lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will one day rule the nations?
Did you know
That your baby boy is heaven?s perfect lamb?
This sleeping child you?re holding
Is the great I Am

Thousand Foot Crutch has some great songs... They aren't like a lot of bands out there.

Thousand Foot Crutch - This is a Call

Verse 1
She fooled all of her friends,
Into thinking she?s so strong,
But she still sleeps with the light on,
And she acts like it?s all right on,
As she smiles again
Her mother lies there sick with cancer,
And her friends don?t understand her,
She?s a question without answers,
Who feels like falling apart

Pre-Chorus
She knows, she?s so much more than worthless,
But she needs to find her purpose,
She wonders what she, did to deserve this

Chorus
She?s calling out to You,
This is a call; this is a call out,
'Cause everytime I fall down,
I reach out to you
And I?m losing all control now,
And my hazard signs are all out,
I?m asking you, to show me what this life, is all about

Verse 2
He tells everyone a story,
Because he feels his life is boring,
And he lies, so you won?t ignore him,
Because that?s his biggest fear
And he cries, but you?ll rarely see him do it,
He loves, but he?s scared to use it,
So he hides behind the music,
Cause he likes it that way

Pre-Chorus

He knows, he?s so much more than worthless,
He needs to find the surface,
Because he?s, starting to get nervous

Chorus
He?s calling out to You,
This is a call, this is a call out,
Everytime I fall down,
I reach out to you
And I?m losing all control now,
And my hazard signs are all out,
I?m asking you, to show me what this life, is all about

Bridge
Have you ever felt this way before?,
Cause I don?t want to hide here anymore,
Take me to a place where nothing?s wrong, and,
Thanks for coming, shut the door
They say someone out there sees us,
Well if you?re real then save me Jesus,
Cause I?ve been this way, for far too long,
I wasn?t meant, to feel alone

Chorus
Now I?m calling out to You,
This is a call, this is a call out,
Everytime I fall down,
I reach out to you
And I?m losing all control now,
And my hazard signs are all out,
I?m asking you, to show me what this life, is all about
show me what this life, is all about (2 times)

Cold - Suffocate

QUOTE
I could take every loving word she says
Throw it in her face
but would she even care
I still remember when she looked at me
that frown upon her face
Trying to be sincere
I gathered all those little things she said
Kept them close to me
Trying to make this real
This cloud will alway hover over me
I'm leaving you today
'cause now I see

[Chorus]
Suffocate, you suffocate
That you lie (I don't lie)
That your fake (I'm not a freak)
Suffocate, you suffocate
You always take (I don't take)
What you can (what I can)

I could take every loving game you play
Blow it all away
but would you even care
I could take all those lies you said to me
Never go away
Never dissapear
This cloud will always hover over me
I'm leaving you today
'Cause now I see

[Chorus]x2

Now I'm far away from you (You're always far away)
I'll never bring back yesterday (bring back yesterday)
You're such a fake it's true
I can't believe the words you say
I'm far away from you
I'll never bring back yesterday

[Chorus]

I always take
What I can

Prince When doves cry

Dig if you will the picture of you and I engaged in a kiss

The sweat of your body covers me
can you
my darling
can you picture this
Dream if you can a courtyard
an ocean of violets in bloom

Animals strike curious poses
they feel the heat
the heat between me and yo@
How can you just leave me standing alone in a world that's so
cold?
Maybe I'm just too demanding
maybe I'm just like my father too bold.
Maybe you're just like my mother
she's never satisfied.
Why do we scream at each other? This is what it sounds like when
doves crJ
Touch if you will my stomach
feel how it trembles inside

You've got the butterflies all tied up

Don't make me chase you even doves have pride.
How can you just leave me standing alone in a world so cold

world so cold? . . .
How can you just leave me standing alone in a world that's so
cold? . . .
When doves cry
when doves cry
when doves cry.

"What You Wish For"

Woke up today to everything grey
And all that I saw just kept goin on and on
Sweep all the pieces under the bed
Close all the curtains and cover my head
And what you wish for won't come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
If this serenade is not what you want
It's just how it is, it keeps goin on and on
Come out, come out where ever you are
Would you do it all over right from the start?
And what you wish for won't come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
So what you wish for won't come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
Once had this dream, crashed down in Oz
Not black and white, but where the colors are
I never dreamed that I would let her go
And I will get what I deserve
Keep all the secrets under the bed
Open the curtains, forget what I said
And what you wished for could come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
So what you wished for could come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?

By Guster

Goosh there's tons of songs I love hearing over and over again

one of them is definitely Who wants to live forever by Queen

There's no time for us, There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away from us
Who wants to live forever, Who wants to live forever....?

There's no chance for us, It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever, Who wants to live forever?
Who dares to love forever?... When love must die

But touch my tears with your lips, Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever, And we can love forever
Forever is our today

Who wants to live forever, Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today... Who waits forever anyway?


but that's just one smile.gif

My all time fav is my wedding song by Firehouse - Love of a Lifetime:

I guess the time was right for us to say
We'd take our time and live our lives together day by day
We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer
We know our dreams can all come true
With love that we can share

With you I never wonder - Will you be there for me
With you I never wonder - You're the right one for me

Chorus:

I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart, I finally found the love of a lifetime

With every kiss our love is like brand-new
And every star up in the sky was made for me and you
Still we both know that the road is long
(But) We know that we will be together
Because our love is strong

(chorus)

Another Fav is One By Metallica

Metallica - One Lyrics
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops in me

Now that the war is through with meI'm waking up, I cannot see
That there is not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime noveltyTied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

Now the world is gone I'm just one
Oh God, help me hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, help me

Darkness imprison me
All that I see
Absolute horrorI cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmine Has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearingTaken my armsTaken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in ######

And my Last is ALL Songs by Linkin Park but I like One step closer by them smile.gif

One Step Closer

I cannot take this anymore
I'm saying everything I've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less you'll say
But you'll find that out anyway
Just like before...

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break

I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before...

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Break break break break break

shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up
shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up shut up
I?m about to break

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Break break break break break break

shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up
shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up shut up
I?m about to break

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break

This is not only my all-time favorite song -- it's the story of my life.

"The Dance"- Garth Brooks

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
but I'd of had to miss the dance
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

And this one is a very very close second, for the same reason:

"Forever Autumn" - Justin Hayward

The summer sun is fading as the year grows old
and darker days are drawing near,
the winter winds will be much colder
now you're not here.

I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky
and one by one they disappear
I wish that I was flying with them,
now you're not here.

like the sun through the trees you came to love me
like a leaf on a breeze you blew away

through autumn's golden gown we used to kick our way
you always loved this time of year
those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
cos you're not here.

like the sun through the trees you came to love me
like a leaf on a breeze you blew away

a gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
as if to hide a lonely tear
my life will be forever autumn
cos you're not here.

This is another song that I love:

I Hope You Dance
by Lee Ann Womack

Album :


I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

I hope you dance....I hope you dance..........

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance,
Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin',
Don't let some ###### bent heart leave you bitter,
If you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back on their years
and wonder where those years have gone.)

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

Dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance..
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back on their years
and wonder where those years have gone.)

Whew, saved me having to type out all the lyrics! I can't hear "The Dance" without breaking down in tears, because it really helped me get thru some serious grief.

U2 - One

Is it getting better, or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you, now you got someone to blame?
You say one love, one life, when it's one need in the night.
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you baby if you don't care for it.

Did I disappoint you or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love and you want me to go without.
Well, it's too late tonight to drag the past out into the light.
We're one, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other, carry each other... one

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
Did I ask too much, more than a lot
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got.
We're one, but we're not the same.
Well, we hurt each other, then we do it again.

You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law.
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got, when all you got is hurt.

One love, one blood, one life, you got to do what you should.
One life with each other: sisters, brothers.
One life, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other, carry each other.
One, one.

I NEVER get tired of that song... LOVE IT!! biggrin.gif

One of my many favourites

Angel ~ Sarah McLachlan

spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there

so tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lie
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

Well of course Im with NYC on firehouse song wub.gif

And my all time fav singer/guitarist of all time: Jimi Hendrix and I love all his songs, but to pick a few out heres my top fav's by him:

All Along the Watchtower

'There must be some way out of here,' said the joker to the thief,
'There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief.
Businessmen they drink my wine, plowman dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.'

'No need to get excited,' the thief, he kindly spoke,
'There are many here among us who think that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we've been through that, and that is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.'

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.
************************************************
The Wind Cries Mary:

After all the jacks are in their boxes And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street
Footprints dressed in red And the wind whispers Mary

A broom is drearily sweeping Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life
Somewhere a queen is weeping Somewhere a king has no wife
And the wind It cries Mary

The traffic lights They turn of blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sails downstream Cause the life that lived is Is dead
And the wind screams Mary

Will the wind ever remember The names it has blown in the past
And with this crutch It's old age And it's wisdom
It whispers No This will be the last
And the wind cries Mary
************************************************
Manic Depression:

Manic depression is touching my soul
I know what I want but I just don't know
How to, go about gettin' it
Feeling sweet feeling,
Drops from my fingers, fingers
Manic depression is catchin' my soul

Woman so weary, the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
It's all the same
When it's, when it's over, mama
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess

Well, I think I'll go turn myself off,
And go on down
All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hanging around
In your kinda scene

Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess
