Reading My Lyrics

Is not that bad, but i dont think that it deserves a spot in the setlist, the HTEP needs more love, specially Carousel & Part of me..

and what about this?

do we really asked to get this song in the setlist?
it was a really surprise when they began to play it, i never thought that it had a chance to be played... they have better stuff to fill that spot, or what not? do more cover songs, i always wanted LP to cover Stone Temple Pilots

 

Could Phoenix pull off DeLeo's bass lines?

I like Reading My Eyes, just cos it's a fun song, doesn't mean it's bad.
Look at it the same you you do BIO.

 

I saw this posted in the Got New thread. Definitely some interesting makes-no-sense lyrics there. Since he said the reason why they even play this song is because we wanted it, then they should show some love to some other songs they've never played. I don't know about anyone else, but I'd really love for them to play Fuse, Stick 'n Move, Carousel, and Part of Me.

 

hihi, here are the lyrics originally transcribed from the LPA. it's astonishing by the way. the first verse has many mistakes as the second is perfect. missed to change the first one, too? this post is no offense to the person who tried to transcribe them in the first place!!!:

The Microphone Molesta'
Machete undresser
Stupid dope fresh tight shit resurrector
Top gun yeah mon best of the besta'
The living MC peace and resta'
Successa, the flexa gunna'
The make funna the advisary make runna'
Make summa cold with rhymes that spit
Kickin' gifted, lifted, deliquent 'wit
I be the prophet, my hand
Top it, stop it, felt like rockin when I rock it
Locked it down with this perverse verse
Every fuckin' curse I burst to hurt
Move crowds physical fitness rhymes
Coke heads couldn't do my lines
Decorated like christmas pines, my batallion rocks
MCs become sillohouettes of shock

Chorus:
Reading my eyes will say it in many ways
Losing my pride will save it in many days

Hit the dirt
Because the words I spit will do more than just rip your shirt
I'll bitch slap your soul
Get back the track control
You coming at me?
You can't hack it though
So ridiculous
Watching my crew get sick with this
Wickedness
Pitchin this
Lyrical viciousness
To crews and cliques
Maiden, men, and mistresses
This is my life
The twilight, the fight night
And trying to see nothing but the highlights
When I write
These eyes on horizons
Die for my son, cry wrongs and Krylon
Fire on, rude men telekinetically
Esoterically beats become a clarity
Feel verities, heroism, and heresy
And sever every MC I see with severity

Chorus

Why not
What a keep (3x)

Why not give me what I came to deserve
Why not give me what I came to believe (2x)

 

Until that day i really don't know what this song talks about

 

It's just a brag rap.

 

This has nothing to do with anything that's been discussed so far in this thread, but can I just point out that you always use "irregardless" wrong, regardless lol of the situation?

Just saying.

 

I'm sure that is a valid use of irregardless.

 

It's actually not even a real word. "Regardless" is already negative, so adding the negative prefix -ir just makes the word positive.

Edit:
I'd like to point out I'm not really being serious here. I just figured I'd lighten up the thread a bit, since it's usually me wrecking threads with pointless debates about things. So don't take offense, Derek.

 

mike's lyrics from reading my eyes has got to be some of the sickest rhymes he's ever done, not because of what he says but how he says it. it's crazy. not to many rappers could rap that verse in a take, let alone perform it live.

 

I know it's not standard English, I just thought that, despite the word suggesting a double-negative, it meant the same as regardless. Oh well, haha.

 

It is a non-standard world, but it means the same as regardless.

 

What? Couldn't isn't a real word?

 

Couldn't.

Hm, it recognized it for me .

 

Every time I read the title of this thread the chorus of the song plays in my mind, only with "lyrics" instead of "eyes"

 

Well, irregardless, your point now couldn't be clearer
