So Far Down
by David Usher
Scars are piling high
Like fashion magazines
Read between the lines
So desperate for release
Get your new tattoo
So we'll all look the same
Take the chemicals
That help you through the day
Step outside your door
Do we all look the same?
No one says a word
We all get by
Above the lights
And it seems so far down and it's so far
This city tonight
We are on fire
And it seems so far down and it's so far
Sell yourself so cheap
I'll buy another round
I swear we're getting out
Still we choke it down
Coming up for air
Been weakened at the knees
No one says a word
We all get by
Above the lights
And it seems so far down and it's so far
This city tonight
We are on fire
And it seems so far down and it's so far
Scars are piling high
Like fashion magazines
I swear I'm getting out
So desperate for release
Climb on to the top
Step out on the edge
No one says a word
We all get by
Above the lights
And it seems so far down and it's so far
This city tonight
We are on fire
And it seems so far down and it's so far (x2)

Cry
by James Blunt
I have seen peace. I have seen pain,
Resting on the shoulders of your name.
Do you see the truth, through all their lies?
Do you see the world, through troubled eyes?
And if you want to, talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor, and cry, on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.
I have seen birth, I have seen death.
Lived to see a lover's final breath.
Do you see my guilt? Should I feel fright?
Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?
And if you want to, talk about it once again,
On you I depend. I'll cry, on your shoulder.
You're a friend.
You and I, have been through many things.
I'll hold on to your heart.
I wouldn't cry for anything,
But don't go tearing your life apart.
I have seen fear. I have seen faith.
Seen the look of anger on your face.
And if you want to, talk about what will be,
Come and sit with me, and cry, on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.
And if you want to, talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor, and cry, on my shoulder,
Once again,
Cry, on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.

Long Kiss Goodnight
by Notorious B.I.G.
[puff daddy]
Mmmmmmmmm-hmm
See.. {*echoes*}
I told you.. {*echoes*}
[puff] see, I told yall muhfuckers
[big] yo yo.. that stupid ***** man
[puff] i told yall to stop!
[big] he fucked up, yo..
[puff] i pray for you to stop
[big] yo, yo yo yo, yo.. yo.. yo..
Yo, yo yo yo, yo..
[puff] but no, you didnt stop
[big] yo.. yo..
[puff] and now, we wont stop
Chorus: sung by notorious b.i.g. (repeat 2x)
Time, time for you to die
As I kiss.. yo.. ass.. goodnight
[notorious b.i.g.]
I make yo mouthpiece obese like della reese
When I release, you loose teeth like lil cease
***** please, blood floods yo dungarees
And thats just the half on my warpath
Laugh now cry later, I rhyme greater
Than the average playa hater, and spectators
Buy my cd twice; they see me in the streets
They be like, yo he nice, but thats on the low doe
Be the cats with no dough, tried to play me at my show
I pull out fo-fos, and go up in they clothes
Short-change *****z, snort-caine *****z
Extortion came quicker, bought the range *****
Ya still tickle me, I used to be as strong as ripple be
Til lil cease crippled me
Now I play hard, like my girls nipples be
The game sour like like a pickle be, yall know da rules
Move from bk to new jeruz -- thinkin bout
All the planes we flew, bitches, we ran through
Now the years new, I lay my game flat
I want my spot back, take two
Motherfuckers mad cause I blew, *****z envious
Too many *****z on my dick, shit strenuous
When my men bust, you just move wit such stamina
Slugs missed ya, I aint mad at cha (we aint mad at cha)
Blood rushin, concussions, aint nothin
Catch cases, come out frontin, smokin somethin
Sippin white russians, bitch in the benz bumpin
I laced it wit the basic, six tvs a system
Knockin mase shit, face it, we hard to hit
Guard ya shit, fore I stick you, for your re-up
Wipe the pee up, mixed shots, woke your seed up
Go in the ashtray, spark the weed up, long kiss
Time, time for you to die
As I kiss.. yo.. ass.. goodnight x2
{puff daddy - speaking over chorus}
Now.. we dont give a fuck..
We just absolutely.. dont give a fuck..
Because.. there aint no motherfuckin love here..
There aint no love here..
You know, we.. we just gon keep doin what we do
We gon keep fuckin you up..
And ima keep stompin your motherfuckin head in
You fuckin bitch, cmon!!
{last line overlaps biggies next verse}
[notorious b.i.g.]
Uhh.. Im flamin gats, aimin at, these fuckin
Maniacs, put my name in raps, what part the
Game is that? like they hustle backwards
I smoke blackwoods and dutchies, ya cant touch me
Try to rush me, slugs go, touchy-touchy
Youre bleedin lovely, witchyo, spirit above me
Or beneath me, your whole life you live sneaky
Now you rest eternally, sleepy, you burn when you creep me
Rest where the worms and the weak be
My nine flies, baptize, rap guys
With the holy ghost, I put holes in most
You hold your toast shaky, slippin tryin to break me
Look what you made me do, brains blew
My team in the marine-blue, six coupe
Skied it out, weeded out, cleanin out -- the block
For distances, givin long kisses bitch
Time, time for you to die
As I kiss.. yo.. ass.. goodnight x2
{puff daddy - speaking over chorus}
All we have to do now.. is say a prayer for you.. yknow?
Thats all we have to do, just to pray for your mind.. cause..
Eheh, see your mind got control of your heart..
When its supposed to be the other way around
Your hearts supposed to got control of your mind..
So now, I have no feelings for you
You have made me cold..
{last line overlaps biggies next verse}
[notorious b.i.g.]
Frank white the menacin, chron chrons the medicine
I got the lettuce and, you turn green like cucumber skin
Got the new, hummer in the summer when I was a new comer
Then, drugs and mac-10s
Hugs from fake friends, make ends they hate you
Be broke -- girls wont date you
Thats why I relate to, choke yo ass out til your face blue
Make you, open the safe too
No matter how you call it (how you call it)
This brolic, alcoholic .. {*biggies chorus fades in*}
Like his weed greend out, like his brick solid
Distribute to, kids who, take heart like valentine
Drink ballentine, all the time
Slugs hit your chest tap you spine, flatline
Heard through the grapevine, you got fucked fo times
Damn that three to nine, fucked you up for real doe
Sling steal slow, as for remorse, we feel no
Time, time for you to die
As I kiss.. yo.. ass.. goodnight...
{puff daddy - speaking over chorus}
See the fucked up thing is that I love you..
Yaknahmsayin?
Its just in my nature to love you..
I cant hate you.. cause its not in my nature to hate you..
You know, I dont know..
Maybe.. Im a different type of individual..
But.. you have me on the line..
And theres a thin line between love and hate
And God forbid I cross that line..
Cause yall not gonna give a fuck
Im tellin you right, motherfuckin, now!!
The shit, yall done started, is never gonna stop!!!
We are never gonna stop!!!
And we not talkin bout.. no other rappers..
We talkin bout you motherfucker
You know, who Im talkin to..
We comin for you..
We comin for you.. ehehehehheh
The shits gon feel so good..
Im gon make you love me baby {*echoes*}

Brilliant
by David Usher
So far so good
Stumble through life so complicated it's nearly Impossible
And i lost my way like i knew i would and keep it Together somehow anyway
And i remember you and me
Climbing over backyard fences diving naked in the Swimming pool
All those faces friends those memories fade so fast
Like every love song on the radio
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are
Through a million days through a million hazy nights
We sit amusing in our politics
Through wine and talk through sex and art we fill our time
And numb ourselves with what's to come
But i'm older now got a little girl of my own
And her fears are my fears now
I know that it's the end of days for moderates
But thinking people are thinking still
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are
So far so good
Stumble through life so complicated it's nearly Impossible
And we lost our way like i knew we would
Keep it together somehow anyway
Woke up from an impossible dream
And we talked and we spoke and we drank and we sang
And we danced and we live and we love and we give
Without question or faith then we fight till we hate
And we hope and we pray that this violence will fade
It's always the same it's the same life
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are low
Is it brilliant where you are
Where the lights are
