Song by Spooks<br /><br>

[Chorus:]<br>

You won't believe the things I've seen <br>

Far beyond your wildest dreams <br>

I've seen chaos and order reign supreme <br>

I've seen the beauty of the universe <br>

so peaceful and serene <br>

in seconds turn to violence and screams <br>

<br>

I've seen true genius, too often to lose the meaningless <br>

appreciation of this mediocre nation <br>

I've heard the mind is repetition, <br>

of empty words without tradition <br>

Turned original verbs into submission <br>

I smelled this malignerance addiction, <br>

but I guess I wouldn't be right <br>

if I said the blunt was like a baby pipe <br>

There ain't gon' be no revolution tonight <br>

Half of my warriors as high as a kite <br>

Lost and they lost all they fight <br>

And I've tasted, the bitter tragedy of lives wasted <br>

And men who glimpsed the darkness inside, but never faced it <br>

And it's a shame that most of y'all are followin sheep <br>

Wallowin deeper than the darkness, you're fallin asleep <br>

<br>

[Chorus:]<br>

You won't believe the things I've seen <br>

Far beyond your wildest dreams <br>

I've seen chaos and order reign supreme <br>

I've seen the beauty of the universe <br>

so peaceful and serene <br>

in seconds turn to violence and screams <br>

<br>

I've seen and experienced things <br>

that'll push the average to the edge and swan dive to death <br>

I'm two guys, multiplied by ninety-three guys <br>

Evenly balanced seein evil equally in each eye now <br>

Maybe I'm the most thorough worker on the job to you <br>

or maybe I'm the one, who was plottin to rob you <br>

The fear of this beatdown, the women on no cash to floss <br>

makes most of y'all hustle ya ass off <br>

From nothin to two mill', in five years I'll live to see it <br>

vanish in six months, with no tears believe it <br>

I'll rock, twenty-eight years before the Feds can lay a trace <br>

See they plan is to erase me, just to replace me <br>

<br>

Life! Your heart is one with your brain <br>

Emotional or reason, now which one do you obey? <br>

Life! Somebody callin you insane <br>

When overwhelmed and blessed, burst in tears of happiness <br>

<br>

Yo, yo, I've seen relationships that's so sick <br>

Life long friendships so cha-o-tic <br>

Thug cat bangin this chick but won't kiss <br>

Drinkin her spit, when coppin a fix for dope bliss <br>

I got a knife and a bat, to bust your brain, put a knife in your back <br>

"Once in the Life" I was trifle like that <br>

like my man Troy, who lost his days <br>

shootin dice on worldly ways <br>

and ended up in a early grave <br>

Because once in a lifetime is rough <br>

Twice in a lifetime you combat the ghost of mistrust <br>

Mentally cuffed, thrust by a cop thinkin he tough <br>

You bust, Amadou Diallo is us, and what <br>

now I'm on my knees, beggin' "God, please! <br>

Save me from the fires of hell! <br>

Let water water soul prevail" - cos I can't take no more <br>

Who's that knockin, at, my door? <br>

Is that you, Pete from Cobb's Creek, who died in my sleep? <br>

We was playin for fun, now it's keeps <br>

Like my man Mark I beat to death wrapped in a carpet <br>

and left in the garbage, now that's cold-hearted <br>

Ask Book he saw it, "Yo black I ain't seen (shit) <br>

Kids in the 6, they flip for nonsense" <br>

Poke an icepick, smokin that (shit) since preschool fool <br>

and packin a tool, (fuck you) Mom Dukes it's cool <br>

<br>

[Chorus:]<br>

You won't believe the things I've seen <br>

Far beyond your wildest dreams <br>

I've seen chaos and order reign supreme <br>

I've seen the beauty of the universe <br>

so peaceful and serene <br>

in seconds turn to violence and screams <br>

<br>

Life! Your heart is one with your brain <br>

Emotional or reason, now which one do you obey? <br>

Life! Somebody callin you insane <br>

When overwhelmed and blessed, burst in tears of happiness<br>

<br>
