07:53When I break this in his real life
07:55Circumstance make you think
07:56Should I be counting my blessings
07:58And then second my eyes blink
08:05Here in the South Town
08:07How you know that kids don't play
08:08Put it down in the streets
08:10Will I see another day to fire
08:12Make it back this time
08:14Got to hold on this mind
08:15And thank God that I made it alive

08:33Can I watch the bombs?
08:34Everything stops in my way
08:36Like what you say
08:37You let your tongue get loose
08:39And when bushels are shut
08:40I used to walk it away
08:42I keep on looking up
08:43Cause these times are getting dumb
08:45Tomorrow's gone
08:46And it's the same old song
08:48Fall up in my club

16:05I lied to
16:11And I see
16:16I went away
16:18To save me
16:23I lied to
16:27And I see
16:29And will I win
16:34I lied to
16:37And I see
16:39And will I win
16:44I'll just breathe
16:45The deception of touching in my command
16:47The end of the breath will matter when I shout a lie in glass
16:50We never see and never heard style
16:52We break forward can't ignore the ball
16:54When I take your title
16:56Stop messing up like I'm a silent with vinyl
16:58To make my breath into a final with vinyl
17:01Sing with the faith that I've been blind
17:03Hold down the strong with the power just you and I
17:07I'm gonna kill
17:10I'm gonna kill
17:20We'll kill
17:21Break back the chains

42:19Freestyle, feelin' the favor, it's the short shot
42:21Lost up the air when the spot gets high
42:23Still playin' news and knockin' on out the box
42:26That's how it is, how we like it or not
42:29It's been a long time
42:49Aided by men and loved by less
42:52Hold the thresh, resurrected here in the west
42:54Clinch the fifth, dismiss the stereotyping
42:57Loose lips, seek shit
42:59The fifth, you hated this, no reason you hated this
43:02If you only knew who he was the first one to enlist
43:05We come in love cause it's just how he does
43:08Fifth of fun staying the same as it ever was
43:10Tick tock, you can't stop
43:12It's a rock, tick tock, you gon' quit
43:15It's a rock, tick tock, you gon' stop
43:17It's a rock, tick tock, you gon' quit
43:21Freestyle, feeling the flavor, it's the short shot
43:23Bust up the air when this rock gets hot
43:26The graying dudes are knocking about the bars
43:29That's how it is, only like you to die
43:31Freestyle, feeling the flavor, it's the short shot
43:34Bust up the air when this rock gets hot
43:36Still banging dudes and knocking about the bars
43:39That's how it is, only like you to die
43:42It's been a long time
43:47It's been a long time
43:49It's been a long time, been a long time for me
43:55Get a long time, get a long time for me
44:35Get a long time, get a long time for me
45:21Get a long time, get a long time for me
45:25Or forfeit his very self
45:28He must deny himself and take up his cross daily
45:34Then follow me, follow me
45:37If any one is ashamed of me and my words
45:43Then I will be your shades of hair
45:46When you're younger and you're lonely
45:50You will go away
45:54I'll stay
45:58All night's in me
46:01I'll stay
46:04All night's in you
46:06I'll stay
46:10All night's in you
46:13I'll stay
46:20I'll tell you the truth
46:23Some of you who are standing here
46:29Will not face death before they see God
46:34Creation commits its power, power
46:40What can a man give in exchange?
46:46What will slow so he cannot save?
46:49When the fall comes and the glory
46:53We will warn
47:10We
47:15All I can breathe
47:22All I can breathe
47:25All I can breathe
47:29All I can breathe
47:33All I can breathe
47:38When the fall comes and the glory
47:41All I can breathe
47:42All I can breathe
47:49All I can breathe
48:11All I can breathe
48:17All I can breathe
48:17All I can breathe
48:18If you don't kill me out, I'm in no case
48:25If you don't kill me out, I'm in no case
48:32If you don't kill me out, I'm in no case
48:39If you don't kill me out, I'm in no case
48:48But don't count me out
48:51I'm an outcast
48:55But don't count me out
48:58Undergred dwellers roaming beneath the settlers
49:01Fell just with the system they live in
49:03How they tell us how to break plates
49:05It's safe, they raise a nation of hate
49:08Erase a man for his fate
49:10Then feed us lies, dress of my king
49:13It falls to sky, behind those eyes
49:15The soul of a savior I recognize
49:17No compromise, bother our world becomes corrupt
49:20Tonight we break the surface for lies
49:22We coming up
49:25Brother, take my hand
49:28Let's separate ourselves
49:31Leave behind your place

49:38Brother, take my hand
49:41Let's separate ourselves
49:44And leave behind your place
49:47Don't ever look back
49:48Displaced lands and robbers of the wasteland
49:51Looking for a home of its own
49:54With no place to run and no place to hide
49:57When it's time for you to stand on your own
50:01Militia, coalition, not of this world
50:04Resistance, we're the alliance
50:06Resistance, we're the alliance
