My place is not a home, don't make no difference But I have found that I need a place to stay I never listen to what the landlord man say You should've seen the flops in my house We were jumping on walls and kicking ceilins Now a days people listen to me, when I say.."GET OUT" Hold me and don't let go Makes no difference that your a ho Cause I need a place to stay and thoughdisease was just the price I paid. In days of old that how it used to be, oh yes indeed. That girl is dead to me now and I say .."GET OUT" (RAP) All the time the people want to know the meaning of the word Sublime It ain't anarchist, it's the shit you missed We get the minute man loop and add a peni twist We know you mutha that this is the shit that you put in the box And say damn it's a hit And to all the radios and the tv shows Cause we don't kiss no ass or kick down free shows What you get is the kind no econo gang or cess with yellow lover on the d-r-u-m-s Let the lovin take a hold over me Let the lovin take a hold over me "Cause all I see is your fussin' and fightin' 1992 so lets all start uniting Put your hands together be the best you can be Let this jam take us to 1993 Stay positive and the love will come back to me
You've got your hair permed
You've got your red dress on
Screamin'that second gear was
such a turn on
And the fog forming on my
window tells me that the morning's here And you'll be
gone before too long
Who taught you those new
tricks?
Damn I shouldn't start that
talk,
but life is one big question
when your starin at the clock
And the answers always
waiting at the liqour store,
40 oz to Freedom, so I'll
take that walk.
And I know that ohhhh...I'm
not comin back
Ohh not going back God knows
not going back
You look so fine when you lie
it just don't show,
That I know which way the
wind blows 40 oz to freedom is the only chance I have to
feel good, even though I feel bad
And I know that ohhhh...I'm
not comin back
Ohh not going back God knows
I'm not going back.
Ohh not going back God knows
I'm not going back.
gonna die for our arrogance
Early man walked away
As modernman took control
Their mind's weren't all the
same
And to conquer was their goal
So he built his great empire
And he slaughtered his own
kind
He died a counfused man And
killed himself in his own mind

Do you believe I would such a thing with me And give it to a police man, I wouldn't do that If I did that would you say. "Sir come down and put the charge on me", I wouldn't do that. I'm not a fool to hurt myself but I listened what they done to me, they were wrong Give it to me one time Give it to me two times Give it to me three times Give it to me four times Oh 5446 what's my number,what's my number now, Right now somebody else has that number One more time 5447 what's my number,what's my number now, Right now somebody else has that number.

With a girl that you knew And the bonds that we grew Turned into a ball and chain I step into the great unknown With a ball and chain I call my home Crazy world to live alone With a girl that you knew And the bonds that we grew Turned into a ball and chain I step into the great unknown With a ball and chain I call my home Because marriage doesn't work in the world today It's an instiution that is in decay And if I have love I wish to portray I will surely find another way I was always taught boy meets girl, fall in love get married and forget the world Nine months later the sweet babys on the way, Kiss 'em on the check and lifes ok. I don't feel no pain I don't have no time to listen to conflicting points of view I step into the great unknown With a ball and chain I call my home
When you grab a hold of me Tell me that I'll never be set free I'm a parasite, creep and crawl I step into the night Two pints of booze Tell me are you a badfish too? Are you a badfish too? Ain't got no money to spend I know the night will never end Lord knows I'm weak Won't somebody get me off of this reef Baby your a big blue whale Grab the reef when all duck diving fails I swim but wish I never learned The water's too polluted with germs I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead Grab the reef underneath my bed Ain't got no quarrels with god Ain't got no time to grow old Lord knows I'm weak Won't somebody get me off of this reef Ain't got no quarrels with god Ain't got no time to grow old Lord knows I'm weak Won't somebody get me off of this reef
I swear sometimes your taking
me for granted
I swear sometime your a whore
I swear but I know there
ain't no reason
'Cause everything is such a
bore
I had a dream, though made me
sick
Saw you in your bedroom
sucking someone elses ****(oh my goodnes)
My friends all laughed, said
it was my fault
Said this time that it
happened to me
But I know that the show was
much more than a low
So I'm waiting for the tide
to get low
If I was an ant liven upon
the wall,
Tell me baby would it make
any difference at all
If I was a RUNT ON A tree,
TELL ME Would you smoke me.
Bright lights put me in a
trance
But it ain't house music,
makes me want to dance.
I don't gamble but I bet,
I'm gonna die If I don't get
no cigarette hold me close,
I always play the mack Put
the monkey on my back
I got so much trouble on my mind, That I feel like I'm always sleeping with the enemy But I know the real world always gets the last word In that's why you gotta kick reality. So don't tease me and try to say I should care. Might as well go out for mine Cause everybody's going out for thiers. So don't tell me about a fake drug war Go cut education some more The people will one day learn and rise Cause not everyone is out to score. People always ask me why people are all fuckup At every corner liquor store.
As I was walkin down rubadub
square
Not a chill to the window a
litte to the air
From another direction she
was calling my eye
It could be an illusion, But
I might as well try
..might as well try
She had rings on her fingers
And bells on her shoes
And I could tell without
asking she was into the blues
She wore scarlet begonias
tucked into her curls
I knew right away she was not
like other girls
Well I ain't never been right
as I ain't never been wrong
As everthing works out the
way it does in this song
Cause once in a while you get
shown in the light In the strangest of places if you look
at it right
She was the summer of love
and I thank the lord above
Because the women took the
lovin over me
And just to gain her trust I
bought a microbus
Because I sold off my
personal property
A tight tye dyed dress, she
was a psychadelic mess
We toured to the north,
south, east and west
We sold some mushroom tea, We
Sold some ectascy,
We Sold nitrous, opium, acid,
herion, and PCP
Now I hear the police coming
after me
Now I hear the police coming
after me
The one scarlet with the
flowers in her hair,
She's got the police coming
after me
Well there ain't nothing
wrong with the way she moves
All scarlet begonias and a
touch of the blues
And there ain't nothin wrong
with the love that's in her eyes
I had to learn the hard way
just to let her pass by.
Yesterday I saw a whore looking out my door As she bends my body aches if she'd walk in I would say: I'm on the mic doin things you like The name is ras M.G. and I'm a treat you right Cause all the ladies and me we both agree that I'm going down in world history Oh she makes my body ache and you know I paid for more I won't flake or perpetrate, I won't front no funky whore Don't get me wrong I'm just singing my song I'm just like you I like to ball my freaks all night long Not only do I rythme I also cut so nice they call me delight My name is eric I have nothing to say because I am not a fucking d.j. And if you want to talk to him you gotta go through toby
All of the d.j.s surely have taken a lesson Start talkin trash and we'll come with a smith & wesson A little competition comes my way but it always winds up the same, "the stone that the builder refuse shall be the head cornerstone" Ain't nothin wrong, ain't nothing right But still I set and lie awake all night All of the d.j.s surely have taken a lesson Try talkin trash and we'll come with a smith & wesson Enough d.j.s come with enough style but when I bus my lyrics we all Know it's wicked wily. Ain't nothin wrong, ain't nothing right But still I set and lie awake all night You better strap with the gap If you wanna walk with me, bound to come down With the new stylee ,rockin rubadub know as reagee music Gotta come down with some new lyrics It just ain't nothing, it's been a real long time Ain't nothin wrong, ain't nothing right But still I set and lie awake all night Rubadub blender a new mixer I am the one with d.j. with enough flavor Hear the dub and say lord have his grilled cheese. I ain't jamican, but I ain't no freak Caught the man eno with the one pound bag o' tweak And called him ghost rider everytime you see him he fulfill the danger Ain't nothin wrong, ain't nothing right But still I set and lie awake all night Dred gotta a job to do and he might fulfill his mission To see his pain would be his greatest ambition We will survive in this world of competition To make sure that till the ..is done I won't wait so long For you Stop your messin around Better think of your future Time to straighten right out or you'll wind up in jail
She wears a tight skirt but it won't rip or tear when I went out with her she had extensions in her hair, she got style and she got the cat moves you better keep the beat marshall cause she's coming after you. I ain't high (yet). I won't lose, I might be looken for attention but I'm not gonna lose it's Friday night and there's gonna be my type of girl but it won't be baby.

What Happened
Wake up in the morning, clock
says half past one
I have no sunglasses As I
step into the sun
There's no recollection of
the evil things I've done
My head feels like I musta'
had some fun
What happened Last thing I
remember I was chillin at a party
Pinching girly's asses I was
drinking recklessly
I know I did something Lord
what could it be
Woke up in the morning And
all my friends say me
What happened
What I'm I doing here Who is
this girl in my bed What is this shit on my face My God,
what is that awful smell
She may be an angel
She may be a queen
She might be black, white,
Amercian, Indian or Japanese
Thru a bottle at a bouncer
Didn't think that he was cool
Pissed in someones drink And
thru a bike into a pool
Driven down the side walk
Like a crazy possed fool
I broke every single traffic
rule.
What Happened
What Happened
Let's go
She may be an angel
She may be a queen
She might be black, white,
Amercian, Indian or Japanese

Let me tell you about a girl
I know,
had a drink about a hour ago.
Sitting in a corner by
herself,
in a bar in downtown L.
She heard a noise and she
looked through the door.
And saw a man she'd never
seen before.
Light skin, light blue eyes,
a double-chin and a plastic smile.
Well, her heart raced as he
walked through the door
And took an empty seat next
to her at the bar.
"My brand new car is
parked right outside. How'd ya like to go for a
ride?"
And she said."Wait a
minute I have to think." He said."That's fine.
May I please buy you a drink"
One drink turned into 3 or 4
and they left and got into his car
and drove someplace real far.
Now babe the time has come.
How'd ya like to have a little fun?
And she said." If we
could only please be on our way, I will not run."
That's when things got out of
control.
She didn't want to, he had
his way. She said."Let's Go" He said."No
Way!"
Come on babe it's your lucky
day. Shut your mouth, were gonna do it my way.
Come on baby don't be afraid,
if it wasn't for date rape I'd never get laid.
He finished up and he started
the car
He turned around and drove
back to the bar.
He said."Now baby don't
be sad, in my opinion you weren't half-bad."
She picked up a rock, threw
it at the car, hit him in the head ,now he's got a big
scar. Come on party people won't you listen to me.
Date Rape Stylee.
The next day she went to her
drawer,
look up her local attorney at
law,
went to the phone and filed
the police report and then she took the guy's ass to
court. Well, the day he stood in front of the judge he
screamed. " She lies that little slut!"
The judge knew that he was
full of shit and he gave him 25 years
And now his hearted is filled
with tears.
That night in jail it was
getting late. He was butt-raped by a large inmate and he
screamed.
But the guards paid no
attention to his cries.
That's when things got out of
control.
The moral of the date rape
story, it does not pay drunk and horny.
But that's the way it had to
be.
They locked him up and threw
away the key.
Well, I can't take pity on
men of his kind, even though he now takes it in the
behind.
DATE RAPE
She didn't want to
TAKE IT!
How can you say. "You torture me", when you're already thinking about someone else. When he comes home you'll be in his arms and I'll be gone. But I know my day will come, I know someday I'll be the only one. So now you wait for a spark, you now it will turn you on. He's gonna make you feel the way you want to feel. When he starts to lie, when he makes you cry you'll now I'll be there. My day will come , I know someday I'll be the only one. Call me selfish, call it what you like I think it's right. To want someone for all your own and not to share their love. But I'll have my way. You don't stand a chance anyway. Cause I got to you, you don't stand a chance. So now you wait for his cock, you know it will turn you on. He's gonna make you feel the way you want to feel. When he starts to lie, when he makes you cry you'll now I'll be there. My day will come , I know someday I'll be the only one. My day will come , I know someday I'll be the only one. You say you want perfection, that's your self-destruction. You don't know what you want, it's gonna take you a year to find out. I am not givin up. And when you've had enough, you take your bruised little head and you'll come running back to me I know that I will be the only one.

Where he sat down
And there he wept when he
remebered Zion.
Oh from wicked, carry us away
from captivity
Required from us a song
How can we singing out for
song in a strange land.
So let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our hearts
Be acceptable in thy sight
Override By the rivers of

And there he wept when he
remebered Zion.
Oh from wicked, carry us away
