Do you hear the flibbity jibber jabber, With an "oh my god, I've got to get out of here or I'll have another Word to sell, another story to tell Another time for swinging the bell" Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end Oh, it must be never-ending, comprehend if you can But when you try to pretend to understand You resemble a fool, though you're only a man So give it up and Smile

(Shh) She's laying back feeling low I know how I put her there Always out running around I never showed her how I cared But she needs my love And it's me she's thinking of I know that it wasn't me But it's the man that I'm gonna be That's what she needs 友達？ うーん... 佐古 キミコ うーん... そしてまた、マコ テル 麻理子 We wanna talk about sex but we're not allowed Well, you may not like it but you better learn how 'cause it's your turn now Hey, boy, you're wasting your tongue with lame excuses and lies Get your face between my thighs What's it mean, Delphine Delphine, Delphine This letter you wrote to me? Does it read "Goodbye"? Maybe a strange "hello"? You know I've always been the first to try Something new for you and me I know the distance can confuse your mind Give it time, Delphine, you will see What's it mean, Delphine Delphine, Delphine Could this be about growing veins And feeling lost? I looked at the moon so full and so bright And then at the fireplace, when it's flickering light And realize why this world will never be right Then I threw another log on the fire Inside these 4 walls, I am a king But beyond that door, it doesn't mean a thing I pay all my dues, till I have only a portion of membership in world happiness And my blood runs freely in Vietnam So I threw another log on the fire Why do you insist on keeping us caged? You know all that does is intensify rage The word knowledge sees the time And all power to the people! (Power to the people!) Then I threw another log on the fire Putting us in a cage was a mistake All that did was intensify hate Now shackled to our cages you expect us to wat? While you fool around on the moon And from there look for another place to conquer While I throw another log on the fire America, UR, you're doing just fine These racial things however do take time While I'm tired waiting not getting mind (Me too!) Except however in Vietnam, where every dead black man is a credit to his race Eh, as long as he remembers his place So I threw another log on the fire Quit to put pencil to paper, it can wait What's right must explain before it's too late The flames are at their peaks now, can't wait Too many broken promises Too many black babies asking "Why?..."

Out of whatever places I could've chose to just air my thoughts, I chose here because, honestly it feels like the most place where I feel like I'm not gonna be told the most basic shit about myself like people care about me but I know they do, it just doesn't feel like it It feels like hoome And I know I'm not supposed to feel like that because I don't talk to any of you and any of you who I've ever talked to I haven't spoken to in years I can't help but feel like I'm trying to be somebody else There's nothing behind that, it's just it I don't know how to be myself I don't know who I wanna be I feel like I switch personalities just for anybody I talk to, like I get gang gang with somebody else and then act like I know somebody I've never known for years I hate that I can't say these things without people thinking I'm just making an attention seeker out of myself and then if I say I'm making an attention seeker out of myself people are gonna hate me and think I'm actually making an attention seeker of myself I hate that I can't just have emotions without getting wrapped up in other people's shit Whatever that means I hate that I can't figure out whatever the fuck I want I hate that I don't know whatever the fuck I want I hate that I can't get the help I need to figure out whatever the fuck I want I hate that this might not be the right thing to say I feel like I'm always particular about what I say, but I know I'm not And I hate that I want to be somebody people look up to I don't know how to do that I hate that it feels like I work hard and at the same time I've never worked a day in my fucking life I don't know how working hard really feels Because it all means something different to everybody else I hate spewing my emotions like this to people I know who hate me and I know one of you does or really you don't and I'm just making an attention seeker out of myself. Oh wait, I said I'm making attention seeker out of myself and now you're really gonna think that and you're really gonna hate me Doesn't life just go into a fucking circle? I keep saying that I do better than the people that despise me and yet i see that the people I despise do well off and I'm like "who the fuck told you you could do that" Atleast in my mind If I told you how I really felt I'd probably be looked on worse than I am I hate looking back on who I was and feeling like that's still who I am Can't say I Hate myself but I really just hate who I thought I was going to be I hate that I'm just pushing everything I do onto the people I love and then I think they're just into it to play along This is the point in my rant where I run out of things to say and just think shit off the top because I want you to make yourself feel bad about me, maybe everything will turn out good for me that way I hate that I feel like everything gets ruined because of something I can't control Noooo, don't worry I won't hurt myself I don't have the gall to do that, ever Really just stuck in life I hate that my actions are controlled by somebody who I never want to be or never will be I hate that I feel like nobody will ever believe me Ibiza Dreams

Blue lights into strobe lights Not blue flashing lights, maybe fairy lights Those blue lights into strobe lights Maybe even fairy lights, not blue flashing lights Blue lights into strobe lights Not blue flashing lights, maybe fairy lights Those blue lights into strobe lights Maybe even fairy lights, not blue flashing lights Gun crime into your right ear Drugs and violence into your left Before white headphones flooding The auditory subconscious waves you accept You're sitting on the 4 back home (Where you're at G answer your phone?) Pause the poison to answer his message Your boy sounds rush, fears for his adolescent What have you done? (Into strobe lights) There's no need to run (Not blue flashing lights) If you've done nothing wrong Blue lights should just pass you by (maybe even fairy lights) Tall black shadow as you're getting off the bush Shadow shows no emotion, so what's even the fuss? But the face of your boy casts a darker picture Of the red handed act he's gonna whisper Look blood, I'm sorry 'cause I know you got my back He was running, I couldn't think I had to get out of that Not long ago, you were miming to the "Shook Ones" Now this really is part two, 'cause you're the shook one We used to be unspoken Now everything is broken, I'm a good son You're a good son You're a good son, oh You're a good son Oh, you're a good son You're a good son Oh, you're a good son Getting next level in a hotel Ain't shit that we don’t need, n****, oh well Getting next level in a hotel Ain't shit that we don’t need, n****, oh well

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '99: Wear sunscreen. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice, now. Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; or never mind. You will not understand the beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now, how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine. Don't worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4PM on some idle Tuesday. Do one thing every day that scares you. Sing. Don't be reckless with other people's hearts; don't put up with people who are reckless with yours. Floss. Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself. Remember the compliments you receive; forge the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements. Stretch. Don't feel guilt if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting people I know still don't. Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when you're gone. Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll divorce at 40; Maybe you'll dance the Funky Chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are half-chance; and so are everybody else's. Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it, or what other people think of it. It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own. Dance. Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room, Read the directions, even if you don't follow them, Do NOT read beauty magazines; they will only make you feel ugly. Brother and sister Together, we'll make it through Someday our spirits Will take you and guide you there I know you've been hurting But I've been waiting to be there for you And I'll be there just helping you out Whenever I can Get to know your parents; you never know when they'll be gone for good. Be nice to your siblings; they are your best link to your past, and the people most likely to stick with you in the future. Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young. Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard Live in northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft. Travel. Accept certain inalienable truths; prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old. And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were young, prices were reasonable, politicians were noble, and children respected their elders. Respect their elders. Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out. Don't mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85. Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth But trust me on the sunscreen Brother and sister Together we'll make it through Someday our spirits Will take you and guide you there I know you've been hurting But I've been waiting to be there for you And I'll be there just helping you out Whenever I can Everybody's free (Oh, you're here) Everybody's free (There's nothing I fear) Oh, yeah (And I know that my heart will,) Don't you fear (My heart will go on and on) Come on, come on, come on, come on (Pain don't hurt the same I know) Come on, come on, come on, come on (The lane I travel feels alone) Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on (But I'm moving 'til my legs give out) Come on, come on, come on, come on (And I see my tears melt in the snow) But I don't wanna cry, I don't wanna cry anymore I wanna feel alive, I don't even wanna die anymore
