When the sun was shinning bright you were there When the darkest clouds came you were there (KnowledgeBorn07) You were there for me and I appreciate the love I’ll send it back your way because I love you so much More than the moon, stars, earth and even the sun More than the trees, our love is deeper than the ocean Our love is peace, symbolicly like a billion doves I'll give you my whole heart and never less than that love You take me higher more than any kind of drug and I'm telling you all of this girl because (chorus) I wanna Thank You baby For being my everything I wanna Thank You so from the bottom of my soul When there’s a darkness you’re like sunshine When I was blessed with health you were there When I was sick and not myself you were there (KnowledgeBorn07) When I was out on the town When I was guzzlin crown When I was stuck in a frown When I was tuckin' em down When I was stuck with them clowns When I was just out of bounds When I was gonna jump out When I just wanted to drown When I was lost and I'm found When I was tossed upside down When I was crushed by the pounds When I was rushed by them hounds When I was lost and unsound I can’t express how, but your love heals so I’m telling you now (chorus) Rays of sun come down on me Rays of sun come down on me

Johnny was a good boy who always did bad He never realized all the things that he had Come out of the bar every night He never took a cab Got behind the wheel and drove home The boy was bad He stole from all of the family that he had When he didn’t get his way, ooo The boy was mad Sold dro on the side, and always shorted your bag I told Johnny one day, he's gonna wear a toe tag His mama tried to reason with him everyday But he never wants to hear a single word she say Always gives her grief He never goes to school And she cries and she cries Swearing he used to be good So he screams at the top of his lungs That he's gotta impress all of the neighborhood Mama said don’t mind what people think But then he left the house to go out and drink Chorus Johnny b bad, he got his mind off track, right And he’s gonna start a fight, and you know he’s gonna Later on that night Johnny was picked up by the cops On the corner downtown, slangin' some rocks And the judge didn’t like it Didn’t give him the time of day Didn’t even want to hear a single word he say But his mama got up, she got up and screamed Judge have mercy, he's my baby And the judge found him guilty on the count of 3 And now he's spending a year in the penitentiary Chorus Johnny b bad, he got his mind off track, right Johnny B. Bad

(Phillip Morris) Straight up ignoring these emcees that bore me with corny stories like “Hey Phil, I had sex with a famous person once...or actually twice it was a three way, with Maggie Gyllenhaal and Kirsten Dunst” YUCK I’m the Englebert Humperdink of rap dude I’m the framework underneath the bad news I’ve been shitting on rappers for so long you’ll eventually have to ask when he’s gonna leave the bathroom rather rough, I’ll beat you till you’ve had enough I’ll beat you with the whole Encylclopedia Britannica Beat emcees emphatically, I beat ‘em alphabetically I beat you till your fucking head is fatter than Omega-3 beating rappers like an egg up in a recipe you’d better beat it like Michael Jackson was standing next to me Pugz Atomz and Awdazcate will bless the beat and kill another Fluid Minds track “Can it rest in peace?”

Play things I like that make me feel good Everyone should, It would make the world A better place, throughout our journey Rapidly flying through space On a globe that spins round and round When I think, I love the sound It sounds like 1000 symphonies surrounding me Orchestrated by the sea

Lets get away from this place, me and you Throw away our self imposed obligation Extended vacation at random destinations With an overall goal to reach the Great Pyramid Get in, hide out and find out how it works Solving mysteries and open up a portal to another galaxy Just think about it, how crazy would it be Would it be, you and me We’re going, going, gone A light illuminates the kings chamber As we embark on the next chapter We step into a beam, it’s like nothing you could ever dream Our bodies transduced into particles of a cosmic stream Flow through the veins of a being who houses All the things we’ve been seeing With our little telescopes and microscopes Who would have known But we always had that feeling, like we’re stuck between Many layers of being, big and small And now I look at it all, here we are With a universal view for two love birds soaring through the stars and we always knew
7.
It’s a beautiful day outside Not a cloud in the sky except one that looks like an angel Warm summer breeze Mild, let it be Almost to good to be true Chorus Take a path to somewhere Well I sometimes think well into the night Under a moon lit sky and candlelight Navigate the stars with your mind Warm summer breeze Mild, let it be Almost to good to be true Chorus Take a path to somewhere

Love What does it mean to me? Does it have the power to set my soul free? Love I wanna get next to her, She sings a sweeter song than any other bird Love I'm down and out I'm on my knees Hear me plead I need, I need, I need Love And guidance to be true Cause my thoughts are wrapped in darkness And I don’t know what to do When you fall off track remember that we got you This is a brotherhood helping out with the weight We spot you But you haven't seen life through my eyes Honestly in the morning, when I wake up It’s getting harder and harder to try Understand that you gotta keep movin' forward Learning from the past like Sankofa Just keep flying toward your goals And remember to set each one high Giving each your best The only limit you got is the sky (chorus) You've got to make up your mind Don't let nobody hold you down this time You've got to spread those wings and fly And don't stop 'til you reach the edge of the sky Love The pressure is on All this on my shoulders makes my heart weigh a ton Love Give me the strength to go on I'm trying to be a king, but i feel more like a pawn Love But I’ll bleed to succeed I'd risk everything just to make you believe in Love So believe in me, hear me plead I need, I need, I need love (chorus)

(all lyrics written by Jeff Mroz aka Notebook Noise) I think it’s incredible with rhymes so forgettable That some of these emcees think their so sweatable Nobodies sweating you guy, that’s just swass Your rhymes ain’t fly, dude that’s just grass So puff puff pass that mic right out ya hands And just being a fan should be your new plans Cos all your rhymes is sub par for underground And you’re not fresh, rapping over any sound You ain’t profound, you ain’t putting in work I hid you on fb, you post like a jerk On and on and on, etc, et al. I would pound this one with epic fail (Chorus) The good fight is not always the right one And your fire don’t compare to this bright sun Suckers lining up like it’s a damn talent show Hoping they spit that new, that everybody know And I guess if notebook knows anything at all It’s how to look good falling so short of tall I’m not flashy, nor concerned with stature But when you holding that mic you aint looking that sure And if that’s pure you’re surely looking shook You got the ingredients but don’t know how to cook You got the hunger, but you got shit for a palette You’d prolly eat the twinkie and skip the scallop If Notebook’s in the kitchen you’ll eat what I make you And if we start to trip out, you’ll go where I take you (Chorus) Can’t get your weight up, can’t get your weight right This is just the pre-party, you’re thinking this is late night You don’t want none of this Notebook rhyme management I’m so sick, you can’t mentally challenge shit I’ll crush physical forms and philosophical fodder You look high and low, but wont find none odder Debonair dope boy, raw rhyme renegade Fronting like I’m too fresh, looking like I’m hella played I’m rhyming hot soup, call me lentil grade I’m rhyming so cool, call me mental shade Notebook’s the name, an evil rhyming sort Word murderer, killing rhymes for sport (Chorus)

When I was a kid I was naïve to the world and it’s ways Way back then I had more sunny days And things on my mind but nothing good to say My thoughts in darkness, my lonely escape When I was a kid I was naïve to the world and it’s ways Way back then I had more sunny days Now I search for something to say, things on my mind I was lost in darkness but then I opened my eyes and (chorus) Now I see the light but it’s too bright
11.
Invade my mind, think about you all the time From rise to bed, in the corners of my head There you like to stay and I come up and waste the day Everything I wanted to, I could never say Hiding away, forget about the day Calm my head, at the corner of my bed Hop in the car and lets get away All that she ever wanted to, she can always say (Chorus) And my feelings explode And I get that heat from you (Chorus) One day I’ll blow you away
12.
(Notebook Noise) Sometimes they come from somewhere out in space The words spin around and funnel through my face Some teleporting hole from outta my soul Lets me know, which words I ought to pull Sometimes it’s simple, “like magnets on a fridge?” Sometimes it’s dark, lonely and on a bridge I get them people watching, at others expenses I get them from the pulse of all my senses I get em looking good, I get em looking broke And I still get em even if I don’t smoke I’ve got some from Hubble quest and Fluid Minds And lady faces, with their fine ass behinds Instrumentals mostly, make me go mental And if I camped again, I could prolly get a tent full I get them on stage and I can get them at random I get them with other guys, so I guess I go tandem (Chorus) The professionals rehearse while the amateurs practice and the naturals stand around and think the fastest (Hubblequest) Brain to brain Vein to vein Plane to plane Train to train Cold cold coordination Of the eye, combined the hands and minds In between the lines where work is work and crime is crime maybe neither are worth a single dime unless its organized I can't explain the pain Assuming the blue falls straight out of the sky I'm not the only one ready rhyme, ready to die to find a waste of time The definition when somebody doesn't think Letting precious seconds slide by You can watch a movie while you drive But you'll have to prove to me you're live On a different scene and speak a whole different jive I want the titties in mouth The pussy in my lap The cash in my hand You see, these be the think fast tactics and mathematics of a nasty man (Chorus)

Afraid to speak My soul is weak Can’t say how I feel Cause everything's a mistake Don’t lean on me Cause I just might fall down Where did we go wrong? You didn’t like my song? Tried the best I could I guess I did it all wrong And all I can say Is that I'm sorry Tried the best I could And I fucked it up anyway (Chorus) Don’t act like u don’t care Cause I know u do You can't erase the years Even if you wanted to Bittersweet memories Make my heart pound Afraid to speak In need of some space Never got the chance To plead my case And everyday (u know me) No matter what I say Always gonna be the bad guy anyway (Chorus) Don’t act like u don’t care Cause I know u do You can't erase the years Even if you wanted to Bittersweet memories Make my heart pound (P.Tugz) Right time, wrong place Purgatory no life is left The grey space stuck between the last treble clef What’s not meant to be saving face Salvaging the last note sung in amazing grace Now channel this the feeling of abandonment You see me standing here down in cement I’m stuck You build me up to just collapse Broken glass is not enough to express the magnitude Strength in numbers I prefer death in solitude Lively and vivid I spit it and you can not feel my pain I’m sealing up my windows and I’m locking my doors Burying the feelings inside of me we ignored Your gain, my pain don't trust the other smother the flame No oxygen breathing in your toxins slow That’s how I love it, how I say it But you know how I’m feeling It’s complicated
