LYRICS
hook:
i stayed awake 'til my mission became
a mosaic of blood on my wall
then i reawakened amazed that it faded
faded to nothing at all
it said
we're gonna run through the streets with torches
of burning tabloid magazines
and then maybe one day we'll rebuild the real
from shreds of exploited fantasies

1:

free bird, never meddle with the poultry
shine too bright, better get a set of Oakley's
got heart like a sentimental oak tree
son sold horse til they sent him to the Pokey

some count sheep just to get a little mo' sleep
i only do it for the benefit of bo peep
my killa tape's worth more than your real estate
i kill a snake with the venom in its own teeth

smooth like the new lou rawls
but they wanna see ratchets and them Youtube brawls
if you feel what I feel like a voodoo doll
then tiny dancer, let me take your tutu off

one touch from the wushu claw
would probably turn these dumb fucks into moo shu sauce
it's a wonderful life until you're under the ice
i'm just here to find the medicine for zuzu's cough

hook

2:

no no don't blame me
i'm just a mild mannered bystander hummin like do remi
you sellin showcase dreams
i'm helpin old ladies
so if jimmy needs a kidney i'mma donate three

but i only got two of them
so that means you and them
probably gon' be losing them
switch up my pseudonym
son of jerusalem's diaspora
tap thoughts back to louisville with that bat of aluminum

i tiptoe on the top of a thin rope
between what is en vogue and shit for my kinfolk
never had trouble getting honeys to disrobe
the flag on my pistol says y'all getting rickrolled

can y'all put the coke down?
the spirit's in the stones, i'm the talk of the ghost town
we are hope seekers
walking through a river of blood with no sneakers
and we're lost in the foreground

you're looking right at us
acting like a maybach passing by an old dodge stratus
hey, yo, we're live from the nation of the baddest
the angelina and the braddest
and we smile through the sadness

hook

LYRICS
i remember my mother pleading
telling me that this meeting with a needle wasn't needed
it would leave me "a disease
if they didn't just sterilize it
the hiv or the hepatitis"
your generation is biased
you'll see it when it's completed

she's saying she didn't have to
i'm saying it's just a tattoo
on my skin, but she made the kid that the skin's attached to
"but what if they won't have you in a jewish grave?"
well you can take them foolish ways and bury me beneath a buddha statue

i was surprised to find some friends were opposed
"like what about when you get wrinkled into stretches and folds?"
but if i never take a step i could regret when i'm old
then my regrets'll be the only thing that i'll ever hold

so i slid in the chair, palms clutching the arms of it
my whole body was probably limp as a sock puppet
used to fear the pain, now it's one of my favorite parts of it
'cause there ain't nothing more beautiful than the scar from it

hook:

some hear the voices
inside of their head
but i had mine
inscribed in my flesh
they realign me when i am depressed
at least i know what they'll read when i'm dead

open and close,
let it flow through your nose,
or your little lungs might forget how to breathe
those rusted ghosts
made a home on your shoulders
and you can trust that they'll never leave

2:

"and the just man rages
in the wilds where lions roam"
the first tat on my right rib, from the flyest poem
of william blake, when i was still afraid i'd die alone
and i was getting wasted every day like styrofoam

left arm's john henry, hammer in hand
a tribute to the indisputable impact of a man
and that the united states is a graveyard of slaves
but only some of us are eating off the fat of the land

my right arm's the grasshopper
from the fable of aesop
that sang songs while the ants labored and saved stock
of food for the winter, too cool to consider
he steadily succumbed to starvation as they watched

that colony of ants was responsible, right?
but they ain't ever sang a motherfucking song in their life
and those are just a couple of the tats that i got
I'll holler at you when I"m back from the shop

Soul Khan - Morning Alone ft. Nicholas Ryan Gant [Audio + lyrics]

Track 2 from the Psalm EP: http://bit.ly/getpsalm
Produced by Abnormal

LYRICS:
her family is three cats
a picture of her dead husband
regrets nothing
and she means that
because she wanna be something
other than
the other half
of another man
why repeat that?

she's got her own life now, she sleeps alone right now
every day's a weight lifted off her bones right now
can't let her friends know right now
It's only been a month; how'd you let him go right now?

she lost him
when it was a tossup between
a ventilator and a paper saying do not resuscitate him
her world detonated
to dust
she snuck away and lit up something that was mentholated
and puffed

they wanna stand by the widow
only when she sags like a willow
but she almost laughs at the casket like,
"now why the hell i have to buy a dead man a pillow?"

hook:

they say this is the hard part
the wounds that never close
and even if they don't scar
everyone still knows

so she waits
so she waits between space
and the taste of the morning alone
so she waits, she waits
so she waits between space
and the taste of the morning alone

2)

now she's wondering
where's the long term struggle
the only thing buggin her's
the crossword puzzle
what's a five letter word
you're supposed to feel
when a loss has occurred
but before you've healed

that's grief,
but it's still not taking
effect in her chest
so she still not breaking
might say she's a still life painting
put her anywhere
but she's still not changing

cafe, coffee from malta
ashtray lookin like the rock of gibraltar
thinking bout the path they walked from the altar
her shrink tried to put her onto cymbalta

that's for depressed folks
might as well have told her ass to take a mentos
and get ghost
'cause she ain't had a tear roll
eyes dry as the pearls in her ear lobes, where'd she get those

that was for their anniversary
before the surgery
he said he fought worse back in germany
"don't worry,"
he said, "it's not gonna stop me"
i'll be back for the crosswords and coffee

she tried to sip but her bottom lip's trembling
remembering what she probably should have said to him
that's a chance that she's never gonna get again
then it settles in and she breaks down

hook

Soul Khan - Not Like That (Lyric video) f Akie Bermiss prod by Deejay Element

Or download the single for free: http://bit.ly/WjJQ4s

Lyrics:
oh, you ain't loving them hoes
it's obvious, though
'cause if you did, you wouldn't be calling them hoes
i've had it up to my sack
with those who hijack
the image of a modern man who always got his wife's back

i was made by my mother and raised by my mother
so, if i love a woman then i say that i love her
i mean, the audacity to say that we're tougher
when a child comes out of them and they still recover

when a man's afraid, i don't say he's a pussy
it's 2011 and you ain't eating pussy?
c'mon it's fun as fuck, just to see her coming, plus
let her finish first, i don't mind being the runner-up

after it's over, i'm grabbing her closer
you're baffled, perhaps understand when you're older
i act right, meaning never act like i own her
'cause that's what i'm supposed to do

hook:

oh god, it's such an honor just to be with you
i even picked a real fucking raw beat for you
if i made a club banger, it would make me stacks
but i know you got a brain to match, not brain like that

2:

i felt heartbreak that would make you cut up your wrists
and learned the hard way, just 'bout any love is a risk
see, it'll go hand-in-hand like a knuckle and fist
but ain't a problem in the world that a punch gonna fix

shit, women cheat and make us jealous a bit
but that's like hearing the pot calling the kettle a dick
it's childish, like some of y'all ain't never been kissed
without it being just another step to legs getting split

i was told i'm the center of her universe
a level that a few reserve, but never sweated losing her
you would think i'm lucifer, nah i wasn't grown enough
wasn't even soul enough, back then i was noah with a shoulder shrug

that flooded tear ducts in a worn-out eye
i'd be like "cheer up, shorty, 'cause it's warm outside"
couldn't fathom the agony 'til i brought out mine
now what i've got's better than whatever more i'll find

hook 2x

Soul Khan - Mr. Governor f Akie Bermiss (prod. by Audible Doctor)

Download for free at http://soundcloud.com/soulkhan/mr-governor-ft-akie-bermiss

LYRICS:

they're killing me tonight
they are killing me tonight
they are murdering, murdering
murdering me tonight

Verse 1:
we went from voltage to dosage like that's humane
as the hourglass passes its last few grains
we still add new names to death row that echo
from holman to folsom, how can you claim

that we're staying on the high ground
when we take another life out
without so much as raising up an eyebrow
well maybe some of us
but meanwhile the rest of y'all chill as we restrain a mother's child down

strapped but disarmed, they're jabbing his arms with catheters
his family's hearts are cracking apart as activists
protest with candles and signs hoping this man will survive
unless the capital calls for the miraculous

this ain't the kind of thing you need to stop and ask oprah
it's power that we can't allow atop a man's shoulder
it's about time i cried out and brought my hands closer
remembering the final words of shaka sankofa

hook:
they're killing me tonight
they are killing me tonight
they are murdering, murdering
murdering me tonight
mr. governor, we've discovered a
body of evidence don't cover us
in that black mask and make us
make us turn out the light

Verse 2:
now even if they're guilty beyond reasonable doubt
it ain't like killing em'll ever even this shit out
if you'd fallen where they've fallen, you might see another route
instead of something more than murder when that needle's coming out

we've seen too many moments that are worth second looks
the first breath he took, the first step he took
a grave is a grave and a death is a death
but y'all forget about it as soon they're first getting booked

see, i'm just stating the past ethics and same words
from the family of matt shephard and james byrd
i can't imagine that sad sentence that they heard
they showed a kinda mercy to killers they ain't
earned

wrongly accused or proven and shut cases
you wanna execute 'em, remove me from your playlist
their your neighbors, lord save us
nah, fuck it you ain't even try to save troy davis

hook:
they're killing me tonight
they are killing me tonight
they are murdering, murdering
murdering me tonight
mr. governor, we've discovered a
body of evidence don't cover us
in that black mask and make us
make us turn out the light
