Listen Lyrics by (hed) p.e.

Back 2 Base X

2006

Listen
I realized my life is flying by and I'm not afraid to die
I made a choice I chose to be the voice of the voiceless you heard that
I sold my soul to punk rock and so I chose to walk alone baby
Yeah, I gotta stay high man you know how I get down never say die never lay down nigga

You realized your life is flying by and you're not ready to die (tell what did I find)
You take a hit you rose and from the hip explode the hollow tip homey
This time the rhymes will cut through the fake cable news
Yeah we gotta stay high man you know how we get down never say die never lay down nigga

Listen times are changing
Everybody knows the games you're playing
One fall down and the rest will follow
Prepare today for the world tomorrow

(Tell what did I find)

I wake up and bake I shake up the world that's what I'm here for
Lights out before the nights out I'm a see what you about baby
There comes a time when every man decides to live or die for freedom
Yeah you gotta stay high man you know how I get down never say die never lay down nigga

The Black car the white-collar covers all the bullet holes in the government yard
Try to hold on pray for the dawn but this time the nights are so fucking long
I get confused I don't know how to lose so I keep my DJ on the 1's and 2's
I pay the court I bleed the boss I suffered the loss of a chosen few

Listen times are changing
Everybody knows the games you're playing
One fall down and the rest will follow
Prepare today for the world tomorrow

Listen times are changing
Everybody knows the games you're playing
One fall down and the rest will follow
Prepare today for the world tomorrow

(What did I find)

I know you wanna take an eye for an eye but pretty soon the whole world will be blind
Hey, Hey, Hey, come on
