Artist: Crisis Center Album: Beautiful Music 12" Song: Beautiful Music Typed by: LeatherfaceMumZ@aol.com [Undefined] (stay with me, stay with me) yo, it's like I cut myself open to see just how I felt Dad steppin' out of our place when I was twelve Bad situation plus my mother's bad health Got me starin' in the mirror like "Damn, no chance of wealth" Same tired story, now the story tells itself Thirteen years old saying fuck it go for delf Get my mind straight feel vexed need to vent Know I'm too young to be stressin' bout the rent Sick to my stomach Hartimes comin' in No help from no one Skin start bubblin' Anger start doublin' Attitude cagey Boxed in tensed up stressed out crazy Sun mixed with clouds turn my atmosphere shady One way or another I got no time for maybe Strange how this music affected me Knew from the first time I wrote that this life was my destiny That's my destiny.. Run-D.M.C., KRS, Public Enemy Rakim, Kane, Slick Rick what it meant to me Road to the riches, c'mon kid stay step with me I could go for days and those days were the best for me Couple years later hit the game with intensity Somethin' wasn't right had to change up the recipe Got my first taste all the lies and discrepancies So-called industry snakes, slugs, centipedes Whole lot of broken promises lay next to me Whole lot of broken shattered dreams stay next to me Nine or ten contracts, four groups later Couple hundred joints got lost up in the tape deck Selfed out in hatred, got me feelin' worthless Things ain't lookin' right and got me feelin' nervous Sacrificed for years, barely scratched the surface Comin' out my pocket like "Damn, this shit ain't worth it" Cultivate a new plan, small funds to work with Built Crisis Center and we dropped it on them PERFECT! All around the world seem every kid that heard it Started checkin' for us and it buzzed throughout the circuit Beats, rhymes and cuts kid that's how we word it Beats, rhymes and cuts kid that's how we murdered Spit on any track and just watch the two convert it Back to real hip hop 'cause that's the only purpose It's Beautiful Music designed to touch your soul Every day struggle plus life treats you cold Make it to the night take a look at how we've grown It ain't done yet, next step: Lock 'n Load! It's Beautiful Music designed to touch your soul Every day struggle plus life treats you cold Make it to the night take a look at how we've grown It ain't done yet, last step: Lock 'n Load! (lock 'n load) It's Beautiful (repeating and echoing out)
