[Braille:] I'm not your average rap star and it's obvious Committed, spitting, even with a broken jaw See the world through my eyes, won't believe what I saw Too extreme for TV, unedited and raw We've seen it before, true, nothing new under the sun Some people speak peace, some people pack guns Teachers taught, problems drawn on chalk boards Shorty outlined in chalk shot by a.44 Magnum, and it's all about the cash funds That's why they don't think twice before they blast some Innocent bystander, smile for the camera News flash, another kid smashed by the hammer Before his sins ever got nailed to the cross That's why text for the blind means music for a lost Generation, that's why it's made with dedication And passion till the death of me, cause it's my destiny
[Hook:] Times are desperate, we can't hold back We must strike mics, the ultimate attack To live out what we say or get out the game Cause without conviction all these verses are vain It goes on and on, song after song. We're in this spitting even with a broken jaw ha! Times are desperate, time's running out But we are gonna speak truth Even with your gun in our mouth
[RedCloud:] I'm ready to die, I'm ready to take off man I'm ready to fly, I'm ready to cry out to the Highest of high I'm ready for that pain infliction but I won't flinch a bit Or bite my lip until you Empty that clip into my head or my hip Until the sky splits, this guy will worship No I won't forfeit, no never no more Until the birdies orbit over my head or my soul Forget about it, I'd have been imbedded in my skeleton The predator is clawing and he's gnawing, pure adrenaline Is brewing in a kettle pot, the little dipper is dipping in It's spooning up the oozing soup pursuing you to sip again Sever that tie that binds you to the lie Inside you is that sign reminding you of Christ Behind you is distorted forms of ordinary thrills But still I'll keep it real, 9 millimeter to my grill
[Hook]
If I can take my heart out and squeeze out a couple droplets If you could see that sorrow splashing like a broken faucet If problems seem to cause something to make this hunger cease Unleash a passion so uncanny that a broken jaw won't stop it
