BEEF ST. BURRITO

On the phatest of tracks, the verbal attacks
Just when ya feelin’ relaxed, the audible ex-lax.
Cleanin’ up so many rooms you think the name was Ajax
Fan base multiplies never ever subtracts
On the net, stereo, CD’s and wax
Invading all areas, nooks and cracks
So if you’re crew was lax, holdin’ their sacks
Then they’re lost like a record in the middle of stacks.
And as a matter of fact, we’re takin’ control
While some came for the dough, we came for your soul.
Couldn’t let you go, we came to pick at your mind.
Give a voice to the mute, give a view to the blind.
Came to move that behind, turn the switch to rewind
To a simpler time, let the music shine.
A program with a message of a different kind.
Not a sketch of a groove, a little more refined.
More refined a little more refined.

(Chorus)
Cause this is authenticity
Brought to you
By this urban symphony
Breakin’ through
With some positivity
Buildin’ grooves
Cause we know that’s what you need
Feel renewed
When we let loose musically
It soothes you
Cause it fits you physically
Filled with truth
When we let loose musically
It stirs you
Cause it changes you mentally

This shit grabs hold…
Gotcha movin’ through zones..
Don’t be scared let go, let it into your bones.
At the front of the bus…
It’s us no fuss…
With punk rock and hip hop
The percussion don’t stop.

Don’t stop the music I’m about to bust
A crackhead to the rhythm and I feel the rush
That you feel when the rhythm invades your space
That you feel when the rhythm makes time and place
That you feel when the rhythm wraps around embrace
Makes you feel like your hearts beatin’ with the pace
And that’s just the plan, the plan at hand.
Move sound underground, like contraband.
And bring jams to fans like we’re supposed to do.
Land to land to bring it close to you.
Part-time shit built to get you attached
Spreadin’ out like a cold that you’re bound to catch.
No tissue the issue, you join the vibe.
Hold of the smoke..wont’ you grab the vibe.
Grab the vibe, grab the vibe.

(Chorus)
(Chorus)
Cause this is authenticity
Brought to you
By this urban symphony
Breakin’ through
With some positivity
Buildin’ grooves
Cause we know that’s what you need
Feel renewed
When we let loose musically
It soothes you
Cause it fits you physically
Filled with truth
When we let loose musically
It stirs you
Cause it changes you mentally

Now this mic stands’ like vertebrae to the brain
Mic chords for veins, my band forms the frame
All those who remain, fuck around get maimed
By these 4X4 rhymes all terrain.
Crunchin’ up every crew till non of yall remain
A hip-hop renaissance, times have changed
Suspect crews have been detained
New ministers of rock have been ordained
It’s the J to the O to the I-N-T
To the M to the E-T-H-O-D.
Can’t explain all the angles that we came to see.
Gave heart to the game and it set me free.
Set me free
Set you free
Set me free
Set you free
Set me free
Set you free

503 (THE PANHANDLE HOUSE) Feat. Thesis

Ay yo! this song belongs to good friends and good times
It’s goin’ on from when the evening begins to sunshine
Said I dedicate this rhyme to parties that passed.
Full of laughs, ass, grass, and them pipes of glass.
And I can’t forget the blunts…I’m lookin’ Chinese.
Milo’s crazy stunts…He liked to climb trees.
At times they called the cops…They knew my first name.
Tried to make the party stop…The neighbors complained.
But they couldn’t sustain, there’s energy to release
Before the light breaks through the east, the goal’s disturbin the peace
Not runnin’ out in the streets, back at the pad with my peeps.
We’re hostin’ phat phat beats, the conversation in deep.
The floors sway the place is packed…sometimes you couldn’t move
Ladies where you at…They’re dancin’ to the groove
You took your last test, and I can guess you’re ready to stress a little less
You’re ready to get down with a party crowd till the sun comes out.

(Chorus)
I can see the light
The sun is in the sky
Say good-bye to night
It’s the Denton party life.
(2X)

Para mi gente yo!

Bienvenidos a..la major fiesta.
Si son mis cuates no se sabe cuando acabara.
Desmadre de verdad, y solo dios sabra
Si esta gente es decente o se encuerara
Preguntas la razon…es la quincena
Celebrar con emocion..buscando nenas.
En las venas, este tema, tan caliente que te quema.
Celebrando las escenas donde siempre hay peda Buena.
Tella or bote tomamos
Tienes monte fumamos
Asi las noches las pasamos
Donde cojen pues ayi estamos.
Si nos corren nos vamos ya saben bien mi gente
No importa donde quede este pedo tray ambiente.
Ya la luna se metio…
Fijate bien y viene el sol..
Y ya los pajaritos cantan y ya no me queda duda.
Que las pedas tienen preciio, y me espera la gran cruda.

(Chorus)
I can see the light
The sun is in the sky
Say good-bye to night
It’s the Denton party life.
(2X)

(Chorus)
I can see the light
The sun is in the sky
Say good-bye to night
It’s the Denton party life.

(Outro)
Ooweyo, oowayo.

NEW VIBE

Brothers and Sisters
Lost in the crossfire
I know you’ve been searchin
Well this is a new vibe.
(2X)
Get up, Get up now
The music is playin…
Get up, Get up now
Dance in the rain…
Get up, Get up now
Heart to the veins…
Get up, Get up now
Music hit’s there’s no pain…

This is food for the mind, unconfined by design
Getcha’ open in time, shine and serve to remind
That music still lies divine, from the root to the vine
Fruit is ripened and prime, now get a taste of this wine
And let it float to the brain, now the body the vein
Now the heart to the soul, expression out on parole
From the current control, that’s only lookin to grow
Fillin’ their pockets with change and only pushin the same
But it’s a combat zone, pen and a microphone
We’re amped and ready to play
Reverb, distortion, delay
This rhythm ready to get em’,
infect the system we hit em’
This music made by the children,
with Texas soul from with in em’
C’mon

(Chorus)
Brothers and Sisters
Lost in the crossfire
I know you’ve been searchin
Well this is a new vibe.
(2X)

Now that I got your attention…
I take a moment to mention…
Music’s a language extension…
A gift but not a possession…

It can’t be sold along with a radio song that’ll soon be gone
It can’t shifted and grifted and have its principle lifted
Can’t be diluted, polluted, for record labels to loot it.
Can’t be deleted, mistreated, and have its progress impeded.
Should be protected, collective, people let’s get more selective
I know you want a good time, escape the drama recline
Just know that thought is diminished, restrained to 3 and a half minutes
Real music lies in the streets, the simple notes and the beats.

The beats.

(Chorus)
Brothers and Sisters
Lost in the crossfire
I know you’ve been searchin
Well this is a new vibe.

SO FAR (featuring Thesis)

Said I know, about that weight you holdin’
Bout’ that anger growin’, Got that throat swollen
Bout’ that feeling staring, bearin’ down on your shoulders
Your introduction to this world was more than slightly colder
Than the average Joe, expectations are low
Got baggage to tow, can’t manage the flow
Feel like, you’re still young but you were forced to grow
And hit points of your life thought you was bout’ to blow
But yo, so far, all ya saw
Were the examples of your family that came before
The lived the game fast, clocked knots of cash
But if you check and recollect you’ll see they didn’t last
Cause it’s a tougher bid, livin’ below the mid
It’s hard to dream and so it seems your just a ghetto kid
Ain’t seen no benefits, so you believed the shit
And with the thugs on the street you found a place to fit

But shorty hold on…
Hold on…
Shorty hold on I know the nights are long
You feel lost in the dark so become the dawn
There’s strategies set in place, kings, knights, and pawns
It’s up to you to figure out, just where you belong
I know there’s pros on the streets, but their mostly cons
They like to sprint to the finish but it’s a marathon
I took time to write words so you can see beyond
And plant a seed inside your brain in hopes that you’d respond

So come on…

(Chorus)
Ya Gotta Hold on
Ya Aint seen the light in So Long
Ya Been fightin’ so ya so strong
To Get a slice before its All Gone.

You wanna know who I am ain’t gotta go too far
Take a trip to Pleasant Grove where the gangstas are
And I ain’t tryin to come across like a ghetto superstar
But I seen plays and scams and got my share of the scars
So know I already know it, when you speak of the pressure
Tryin’ to give you this piece of mind to take greater measures
Make educated decisions, and I ain’t kickin religion
Cause break the cycle’s my mission, this is freedom ammuniton
Tell ya, You and I , can get by, head to the sky
If we try, to unify, can’t be denied
If we apply, everything that we hold inside
Then I bet we get to heaven way before we die

(Chorus)
Ya Gotta Hold on
Ya Aint seen the light in So Long
Ya Been fightin’ so ya so strong
To Get a slice before its All Gone.
(X2)

Take this as one stand to keep you believin’
Take this as one band that sees your future achievin’
We wrote this one jam to get your soul to sing
But there’s a bigger plan, fulfill your role as a king
So you’ll be ready to give so that truth can live
Said you’ll be ready to give so that youth can live
And now your mind’s free, you’re thinkin’ for yourself
Now you’re a knowledge tree, and your roots are your wealth

So Shorty…
(Chorus)
Ya Gotta Hold on
Ya Aint seen the light in So Long
Ya Been fightin’ so ya so strong
To Get a slice before its All Gone.

ROBERT SMIFF

I took a step back found conclusions.
I found this rap game lost in illusions
It’s all based on the lifestyle lies your choosin
Pimps to the Hoes to the Smoke to boozing
I can tell by the weight of your lids where you been
On the edge of win with a taste of losing
Seems like everyone’s abusing
The art form to perform, forgot about the music
So the rattle the cattle, without a battle to battle
Most styles are saddled, deep thought skedaddled
Fought the current and paddled for a different shore
Where melodies and harmonies as a gift meant more
Deep breath relief, now I found belief
That the biz lost pulse so we pound the beat
Now the sound in me can have a farther reach
Same thing with the crew so we groove to Teach.

Said we groove to teach
So the sound in me can have a farther reach


Now…

Don’t stress it’ll get right
Sit tight!
If you flex all your insight
To new heights!
If you stretch you can touch skies
So Bright!
Catch freedom at first light
Pass night!

And what once was lost had a road to cross
Now it found applause, cause it found a cause

Lot of times wrote rhymes inside paradigms
Defined by the times, confined what was mines
Inside the lines, the pictures drawn
Born from the brain, but the style was wrong
Realized every word, every noun, every verb
Shit I thought superb, was only shit I heard
The mind state created, regurgitated
Based on raps from cats, that like fashion faded
So I stayed in the lab, the plan developed
The darkroom was a womb, we became enveloped
Built more than songs, found a place to belong
A brigade six strong, holdin on till dawn
And thoughts repressed that congest the chest
Broke though transgressed, notes help digest
All types of stress, and I must attest
That a soul expressed, is a soul that’s blessed.

Is a soul that’s blessed.
Thoughts repressed that congest the chest.

Now…

Don’t stress it’ll get right
Sit tight!
If you flex all your insight
To new heights!
If you stretch you can touch skies
So Bright!
Catch freedom at first light
Pass night!

And what once was lost had a road to cross
Now it found applause, cause it found a cause


So now the question come why do this?
Why march to this drum go through this?
The most ruthless, the less traveled path
Why fuck with your math, fill half your glass?
For the souls on the streets tryin to make ends meet
For the babies on the Ave. getting less than half
For the workers on the sites, way before sunlight
For the teachers in the districts, handling their business
For the fam and the fans and the helping hands
For the dreams and schemes and everything between
For the life and love and all of the above
For the leaders yet to come bringing their own drum
So why music? Why art? Why self-expression?
Respond with aggression, there should be no question
To stir passion, That’s what it’s there for!
To bring action, That’s what it’s there for!
So you can see, That’s what it’s there for!
To be free, That’s what it’s there for!
So you can grow, That’s what it’s there for!
To touch your soul, That’s what it’s there for!
So you can think, That’s what it’s there for!
So we can link, That’s what it’s there for!
So you can try, That’s what it’s there for!
So you can fly, that’s what it’s there for!

That’s what it’s there for!

LIKE DAGGERS TO THE BRAIN

This be my last rhyme to freedom, Finally hands untied
I’m trying to reach for the sky instead of just getting by
Cause too many cried, watched dreams collide
With the bright green machine named American dream
That sings lullabies till we forget who we are
Till we become Mr. Visa, Mrs. MasterCard
I backtrack trying to scope how we got this far
Such a slave to my house, my clothes, my car

This be my last rhyme to freedom

And on the tele on the daily steady seeking permission
Trying to sell me prescriptions I’m in a ready position
to make a heavy decision
This pharmaceutical sale entails, happiness unveiled
Gotcha believing you’ve failed, You’ve got mountains to scale
Unless you got the pill to make you feel you’re out of a cell
What makes them different from the brothas on the corner who sell
A time slot on your tube or wholesale retail

This be my last rhyme to freedom
And there will be no more

Bridge
Is this how far we’ve come?
Is this civilization?
They keep us medicated, indebted,
Plugged back into the machine
Is this the system we want?
Is this the system we need?
Question everything.
Everything.

This be my last rhyme to freedom (X3)
And there will be no more
There will be no more

With this last rhyme to freedom, release thoughts and feed them
To the lost souls who need them, who let false roads mislead them
With this last rhyme to freedom ignite flames in mass
So they can cop hallway passes, escape fascist classes
With this last rhyme to freedom unfold swells of passion
And fill what fills a fraction, talking love retroaction
With this last rhyme to freedom I bring forth the rage
Of a child forced to age, by street wars that waged
With this last rhyme to freedom, release a poetry of peace
To decimate the beasts that hate released upon our streets
With this last rhyme to freedom, stir emotions held passive
From miniscule to massive, from apathetic to combative
With this last rhyme to freedom I bare my soul to my peers
My strength faults and fears, my love my hate my tears
My strength faults and fears, my love my hate my tears
With this last rhyme to freedom
With this last rhyme to freedom
With this last rhyme to freedom
With this last rhyme to freedom
