Verse 1:

Yo Yo Aye Yo!

I stand outside the gates of Buckingham Palace selling reefer

Puffing a challis with the beef eaters.

Gettin' so high that whenever I drop shit

It'll land on the window of your airplane cockpit.

Canibus with the hot shit "Crazy I. Click"

Niggas is bloody idiots thinkin' that they can stop this.

I'll increase my strength to a super human extent

Nigga your rhyme ain't worth six pence.

And if you can hear, smell, see, touch, and taste....

Then you don't need six senses to feel me punch you in the face.

>From Princeton, to ????? my lyrics invade Europe like Joseph Stalin,

And murder niggas for rhymin'. Spittin fire....

With gasoline filled saliva, drunk as Lady Diana's driver with

reporters

Behind her. Alcohol in the hands of

A minor. I got you panicking like bombs, with 30 second timers.

Clear the building, evacuate women and children....

Fuck what you feelin' nigga I came here to kill 'em.

Straight shittin', from New York to Great Britain,

And when we do shows we make the queen pay admission

What!

Chorus:

Canibus: When I say "Can-I" you say "Bus"

Canibus: Can-I

Crowd: Bus

Canibus: Can-I

Crowd: Bus

Canibus: When I say "Can-I" you say "Bus"

Canibus: Can-I

Crowd: Bus

Canibus: Can-I

Crowd: Bus

Verse 2:

Yo, Yo

Prepare for the worst. This next verse is the face of death

Me without lyrics is like a porn flick without sex,

Illmatic, my lyrical skills are Jurassic

With more flavor then skittles when not digitally mastered.

I go off like a cannon, and blow up the planet with "No Fear"

Like them clothes white boys be wearing.

I'm tougher than denim, lethal like venomous snake bites

The marijuana makes my eyes bright red like brake lights.

There ain't a party I couldn't rock, believe that.

There ain't a microphone brave enough to give me feedback.

I'm strong my word is "Bond" like James,

Niggas be tryin' to test but they "week" like 7 days.

MC's run away when I kick it, they act so chicken

They should come with a large drink and a biscuit.

My styles radioactive, massive atomic, I plan to push the Earth

In Front of Haley's comet. Breaking the "Facts Of Life" down

Like Tudy, I'm raw like sushi, with more vocab, then

Three fucking Fugees. So recognize or be hospitalized

Because lyrically on a scale of 1-10 I'm 25!

Chorus:

Verse 3:

Yo, Yo,

A little bit of weed and some hennesy,

Got me ready to set it with kinetic energy.

See I need much more energy then my enemies

If I want to make more Bill's then Bellamy.

So I could be on MTV, with women constantly telling me,

I resemble Billy D. I make fly rhymes to get my name on the scene.

And when I'm on the scene I do shows to get the green.

Then I take the green by a automobile machine, for

That thing on page 43, in Jet Magazine.

Canibus is the ultimate executioner's dream. Swinging the guillotine.

'cause whenever the head is severed from the human body

With a sharp enough weapon, the brain remains conscious for 10

seconds.

Long enough for me to give you one last message,

And when you get to hell you can tell Lucifer I said it.

Don't ever get it confused. Fuckin' with Canibus the human "rubics

cube"

Like you got something to prove.

Yo, whoever grabs the mic after me'll get booed, and get everything

In the club thrown at you and your crew.

>From moette bottles to bar stools, fruits and foods, if you got a

album

Out you get hit with your CD too.

Runnin' outside, lying, crying, denying that you ain't

The Gay Rapper, but you got fucked by him.

What's the difference, ya'll niggas still ain't in lyrical fitness.

Too busy mixing your business, with your bitches

While I be in the lab composing forbidden scriptures

So wicked, I Satan ejaculating on his fingers

Like Dirk Diggler, in the middle of Boogie Nights

Sniffin' white livin' the hype, he ruined his life.

But I'm a MC of a different type, yeah that's right.

Make sure your shit is right, or I'm a snatch your mic.

Nigga!

Chorus to fade

    this song blows my mind about how great Canibus can put lyrics together. pos my fav canibus jam.

    Clearly about how much better he is than anyone and everyone. If he didn't keep falling off the face of the planet then I would still agree.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
