Jon Murdock - No Choices lyrics
[Jon Murdock - No Choices lyrics]
If it's getting harder to face every day
Don't let it show, don't let it show
Though it's getting harder to
Take what they say
Just let it go, just let it go
And if it hurts when they mention my name
Say you don't know me
And if it helps when they say I'm to blame
Say you don't owe me
Yo, check it out, Jon Murdock, 2005
This shit right here's real serious
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop your love check it out, yo, yo
People love the fear that I
Bring until they feel
Everything that I create
I can't yield anything
Life's a long process
Too short to talk nonsense
I write with strong concepts and
Strike at all objects
People use the shortcut, I take the long way
So I pay more attention to what I saw today
The system's washing your mind
Don't be drawn away
Because that life you lead
Could be gone today
Hat low, new car, letting your chain swing
I ain't putting nobody down
I do the same thing
And if the cops kicked the door
I wouldn't change a thing
Because I know the consequence of
What the game brings
I been stressed to the point
Where I can't think
Deep depression, and didn't have a damn thing
To call my own until I came
Up with a plan and shit
Screw my head on tight
Ten thousand grams I flip
You I know flip that, cell phone to chit chat
Your girl, I hit that, I'm slipping
Where's my sense at?
This all material, Murdock's imperial
But, you know I couldn't sit back
And wait for a miracle
Long road to glory, short road to shame
Saw people fall, saw people gain
The plans fell apart so I had to rearrange
I'ma let my words direct you to
The path I'm meant to take forever
We always have a choice
Or at least I think we do
We can always use our voice
I thought this to be true
We can live in fear extend ourselves to love
We can fall below or lift ourselves above
Fear can stop you lovin'
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you lovin'
But, it's not always that clear
You ain't filthy rich before, dirty poor
You need to journey more
Discipline yourself to never lose and
You'll convert to all you ever wanted to be
Instead of running on streets
Thinking you thug with a gun and a tee
I give the greatest message
I live and take in lessons
Learn by the trials and tribulations
I was raised in, stressin'
Never tooken out by numbers
You ain't brave in weapons
Then show a millimeter
That you aim and threaten my life with
You don't even know what life is
You look at me like I'm
Just another white kid
Trying to be who you are, I know your type
Kid you could live a thousand lives
And never write this
I'm at a higher caliber, sayonara challenger
Slide inside the lines
I provide the silent silencers
Roam around the place where love
Fear and violence live
Happiness is that within yourself
If you acknowledge it
A blind man can see more than most of y'all
Overall Hip-Hop is more than what you shoot
And what you smokin' on
Originality's something y'all don't focus on
A tight grip to this shit
Is what I'm holdin' strong
Like a man hanging from a
Cliff who's just holdin' on
With every ounce of his strength
Until his hold is gone
People see what they cause
And they know it's wrong
Changing the outlook for worse because
The dough is long what's goin' on?
We always have a choice
Or at least I think we do
We can always use our voice
I thought this to be true
We can live in fear extend ourselves to love
We can fall below or lift ourselves above
Fear can stop you lovin'
Love can stop your fear
Fear can stop you lovin'
But, it's not always that clear
Is it, done? Oh, yes, Mr book
I have John Murdoch in mind
Did I, see a moment with you
In a half lit world?
I'm frightened to believe but, I must try
If I stumble, if I fall
I'm reaching out in this mourning air
Yeah, yeah, yeah jon Murdock, Foundation
2004, in your motherfuckin' area, yo
What the fuck y'all cats thinking? You
Must be weirdos like Briskey
I move quickly, zero to sixty
Hypnotist, switch the mix
Quick to click in the clip
Spit shit, rapid fire reactions
The magnum'll spit
Can't miss the area, H move like neo
Bust like torpedoes, fuck up your ecosystem
With the realization
Face to face with the faceless
You could feel my hatred 9
11, lyin' in Heaven, rhyme with the reverend
In line with the weapon, fly without wings
Glide to the session
It's a dark city, so you know I talk gritty
And walk pretty, take on the best
I got it all in me
Running on empty, nothing but time
Dominate your head unit banging
Nothing but mine laser lens reads the input
Soak up the output
Focus your outlook, the flow came
The ground shook
Your Earth is quaking, legs become unstable
From the sickest shit I brought to the table
Counter strike you, strike with the rifle
Aimed at the mic booth, your fantasy is final
Choose your destination, move with hesitation
Lose your reputation
My crew's the best to blaze it
Conductive conduction
Flow ruptures your function
Punctures lungs at sudden, tumbling down
I'm comin' in door kicked
Wave the four fifth in your office
Talk shit, I'll spark shit
Walk awkward the marksman
Cats be setting 'em up, they fuck with
Hear news through the grapevine
Now you a target
Tight with the CO, but don't like your PO
He's always like, "Hey amigo, ándale mino"
Speak the English language
Y'all cuddled up with faggots
I bag 'em, toe tag 'em
Blow 'em with the old Magnum
Packing gatling cannons to blast 'em I
Keep the mask in the cabinet
I'll leave your ass in the casket
The flow I mastered fascist
You cats get blasted by men
Who want the Aston you in a state of deep
Panic and running circles frantic
Abandon ship, abandon the clip
Abandon the whip a man with a clique who
Won't just brandish it
A man or a myth, dismantle your clique
I'll handle this shit
Ignite your candles, scramble you quick
Try to move, try to duck, try your luck
Who you eyein' up?
Tie 'em up, sighin' up, X might size 'em up
You soft like micro
A mic phones you might blow
Cut you up like a light O
Ignite the tight flow
Move like kamikazes in Nagasaki, copy copy
Papi tried to pop me, stop me, block me
Cock the shotty
Bang the hammers once I leave the bench
Practice my defense and offense
Need a park bench, you harmless
Can't eliminate me, use size to intimidate me
I look back like, "Shit, you crazy, make me
" I'm feeling shaky lately
Dismantle your counterpart
Stand careful in camouflage
You look like you a man of God, me
I stand a man apart
2004, Dark City, walk with me
Talk with me, Jon Murdock
Don't want no war with me
Don't let it show, don't let it show
Though it's getting harder to
Take what they say
Just let it go, just let it go
And if it hurts when they mention my name
Say you don't know me
And if it helps when they say I'm to blame
Say you don't owe me
Yo, check it out, Jon Murdock, 2005
