Hybrid Theory Lyrics
Papercut

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here’s not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia’s all I got left
I don’t know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed / but
I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It’s like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it’s time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me / right beneath my skin
It’s like I’m / paranoid lookin’ over my back
It’s like a / whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I / can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin
I know I’ve got a face in me
points out all the mistakes to me
You’ve got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia’s probably worse
I don’t know what set me off first but I know what I can’t stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can’t add up to what you can but
Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when they close their eyes
A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it’s time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too / right inside your skin
It’s like I’m / paranoid lookin’ over my back
It’s like a / whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I / can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin

It’s like I’m / paranoid lookin’ over my back
It’s like a / whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I / can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin

the face inside is right beneath my skin
the face inside is right beneath my skin
the face inside is right beneath my skin

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

The sun
It’s like I’m / paranoid lookin’ over my back
It’s like a / whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I / can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin
I feel the light betray me

The sun
It’s like I’m / paranoid lookin’ over my back
It’s like a / whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I / can’t stop what I’m hearing within
I feel the light betray me
It’s like I / can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like I / can’t stop what I’m hearing within

One Step Closer

I cannot take this anymore
I'm saying everything I've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less you'll say
But you'll find that out anyway
Just like before...

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break

I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before...

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Break break break break break

shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up
shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up shut up
I’m about to break

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Break break break break break break

shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up
shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up shut up shut up shut up
I’m about to break

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break

With You

I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react
Even though you're so close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back

It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you

You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes

I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend the past isn't real
I'm trapped in this memory
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react
So even though you're close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back

It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you

You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes

No, no matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
No, no matter how far we've come I
I can't wait to see tomorrow

With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes

Points Of Authority

Forfeit the game / Before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame / Puts your name to shame
Cover up your face / You can’t run the race
The pace is too fast / You just won't last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life
My pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
(You live what you’ve learned)
You have to act like you’re someone
(You live what you’ve learned)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you’ve learned)
You want to share what you’ve been through
(You live what you’ve learned)

You love the things I say I’ll do
The way I’ll hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in / my life
My pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
(You live what you’ve learned)
You want to act like you’re someone

Crawling

crawling in my skin
these wounds they will not heal
fear is how I fall
confusing what is real


there's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
consuming/confusing
this lack of self-control I fear is never ending
controlling/I can't seem


to find myself again
my walls are closing in
(without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
so insecure

crawling in my skin
these wounds they will not heal
fear is how I fall
confusing what is real

discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
distracting/reacting
against my will I stand beside my own reflection
it's haunting how I can't seem...

to find myself again
my walls are closing in
(without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
so insecure

crawling in my skin
these wounds they will not heal
fear is how I fall
confusing what is real

crawling in my skin
these wounds they will not heal
fear is how I fall
confusing confusing what is real

there's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
consuming/confusing what is real
this lack of self-control I fear is never ending

Runaway

Graffiti decorations
Under a sky of dust
A constant wave of tension
On top of broken trust
The lessons that you taught me
I learn were never true
Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)

I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

Paper bags and angry voices
Under a sky of dust
Another wave of tension
Has more than filled me up
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true
Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)

I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

I'm gonna run away and never say goodbye
(gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away)
I'm gonna run away and never wonder why
(gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away)
I'm gonna run away and open my mind
(gonna run away/mind gonna run away gonna run away/mind mind gonna run away mind gonna run away/mind gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away/mind)

I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

I wanna run away
and open up my mind
I wanna run away
and open up my mind
I wanna run away
and open up my mind
I wanna run away
and open up my mind

In The End

(It starts with)
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried
so hard

And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I
I tried so hard

And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

I’ve put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I’ve put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

A Place For My Head

I watch how the
Moon sits in the sky / in the dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
The sun doesn't give / light to the moon assuming
The moon’s going to owe it one
It makes me think of how you act to me / You do
Favors and then rapidly / You just
Turn around and start asking me / about
Things you want back from me
I’m sick of the tension / sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place / to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
(You’ll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
Maybe someday I’ll be just like you / and
Step on people like you do and / Run
Away the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm / used to be strong
Used to be generous / but you should’ve known / That you’d
Wear out your welcome / now you see
How quiet it is / all alone / I’m so
Sick of the tension / sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place / to feed your greed
While / I find a place to rest / I’m so
Sick of the tension / sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place / to feed your greed
While / I find a place to rest
I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
(You’ll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away

I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
(You’ll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

Shut...up

I’m so sick of the tension / sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place / to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

I’m so sick of the tension / sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place / to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

Forgotten

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture is there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture is there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care

There’s a place so dark you can’t see the end
(Skies cock back) and shock that which can’t defend
The rain then sends dripping / an acidic question
Forcefully, the power of suggestion
Then with the eyes shut / looking though the rust and rot
And dust / a spot of light floods the floor
And pours over the rusted world of pretend
The eyes ease open and its dark again

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture is there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care

In the memory you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

Moving all around / screaming of the ups and downs
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
The wheels go round and the sunset creeps behind
Street lamps, chain-link and concrete
A little piece of paper with a picture drawn floats
On down the street till the wind is gone
The memory now is like the picture was then
When the paper’s crumpled up it can’t be perfect again

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture is there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture is there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care

In the memory you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you

Now you got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you

In the memory you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

In the memory, you will find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

Pushing Me Away

I’ve lied / to you
The same way that I always do
This is / the last smile
That I’ll fake for the sake of being with you

Everything falls apart / even the people who never frown / eventually break down
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Everything has to end / you’ll soon find we’re out of time left / to watch it all unwind
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
I’ve tried / like you
To do everything you wanted too
This is / the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you

Everything falls apart / even the people who never frown / eventually break down
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Everything has to end / you’ll soon find we’re out of time left / to watch it all unwind
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away

Were all out of time / this is how we learn how it all unwinds
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Were all out of time / this is how we learn how it all unwinds
The sacrifice is never knowing why...

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
pushes me away

ENTH E NDG
-Kutmasta Kurt featuring Motion Man
Hey yo! When this first started off it was just Linkin Park.
And hen in the middle came Motion Man.
And at the end of it all it was Kutmasta Kurt with a remix
One thing I don't know why
it doesn't even matter how hard you try
keep that in mind I designed this rhyme hen I was obsessed with time
all I know, time was just slipping way
and I watched it count down till the end of the day
watched it watch me and the words that I say
the echo of the clock rhythm in my face
I know that I didn't look down below
and I watched the time go right out the window
trying to grab hold, trying not to watch
I wasted it all on my hands on the clock
but in the end no matter what I pretend
the journey is more important than the end or the start
and what it meant to me will eventually be
a memory of the time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard
and got so far
but in the end
it doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
to lose it all
but in the end
it doesn’t even matter
yo one thing, one thing I don't know why
it doesn't even matter how hard you try
keep that in mind I designed this rhyme to explain the due time
all I know, time to so-socialize like the host of the party
all for shake and made eye contact
party control showing all that
northeast, southwest coast
stand out the window, no opportunity to mingle
I tried to show her, if you could just sense a middle disorder
I brought you back of the thing
like the imaginary man of your dreams
well, you would always seem to make it worth it
a sleek skin I never nerved you
you felt lovin, I never applied a room
without bringing the plan
by any means and means of leaving you teens,
of all those teenage scenes, I tried so hard
I tried so hard
and got so far
but in the end
it doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
to lose it all
but in the end
it doesn’t even matter
linkin park, remix, Mo Mo Mo Motion Man
linkin park, in the end, Kutmasta Kutmasta Kut Kutmasta Kurt
linkin park, remix, Mo Mo Motion Man
linkin park, in the end, Kutmasta Kurt
one thing I don't know how
it doesn't even matter when you look at it now
because when I designed this rhyme I was scared of it all
scared to fall, I hadn't even tried to crawl
and I was forced to run, with you mocking me
stopping me, back stabbing me constantly
remembering all those times you fought with me
watch the clock now chop full of hypocrisy
and now your mouth wishes it could inhale
every single little thing you said to make things fail
every single little sputter just to get your peace, but it really doesn't matter to me
because from the start to the end no matter what I pretend
the journey is more important than the end or the start
and what it meant to me will eventually be
a memory of the time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard
and got so far
but in the end
it doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
to lose it all
but in the end
it doesn’t even matter..
In the end

FORGT/ 10
- Alchemist featuring Chali 2na
From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I've forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture's there
The memory won't escape me
But why should I care
We're stuck in a place so dark, you could hardly see
A manner of matter that splits with the words I breathe
And as the rain drips acidic questions around me
I block out the sight of the powers that be
Duck away into the darkness, times up
I wind up in a rusted world with eyes shut
So tight that it blurs into the world of pretend
And the eyes ease open and it's dark again
From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I've forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture's there
The memory won't escape me
But why should I care
In the memory you'll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up
Listen to the sound, dizzy from the ups and downs
And nauseated by the polluted rock that's all around
Watchin the wheels of cars that pass
I look past to the last of the light and the long shadows it casts
A window grows and captures the eye
And cries out yellow light as it passes me by
And a young, shadowy figure sits in front of a box
Inside a building of rocks with antennas on top
Now, nothing can stop in this land of the pain
The same lose, not knowing they were part of the game
And while the insides change, the box stays the same
And the figure inside could bear anybody's name
The memories I keep are from a time like then
I put on my paper so I could come back to them
Someday I’m hopin to close my eyes and pretend
That this crumpled up paper can be perfect again
From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core I've forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture's there
The memory won't escape me
I'm here at the podium talking, the ceremonial offerings
Dedicated to urban dysfunctional offspring
What's happened
City governments are eternally napping
Trapped in greedy covenants, causin urban collapsing
Bullets that scar souls, with dark holds, get more than your car stole
Some hearts be blacker than charcoal
For real, this society's deprivation depends not on our differences, but the separation within
No preparation is made, limited age, minimum wage
Livin in a tenement cage for innocent pay
Tragedy within a parade
The darkness overspread like permanent plague
I'm the forgotten
In the memory you'll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

P5SHING ME A*WY
- Mike Shinoda featuring Stephen Richards of Taproot
When I look into your eyes
There's nothing there to see
Nothing but my own mistakes
Staring back at me
[*the below lyrics are said backwards*] [*the only way to hear the words is if the song is played backwards*] Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwhind
Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down
Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwhind
Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down
I've lied
To you
This is the last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you
(Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down)
(Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwhind)
For sake of being with you
(Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
Why I stay
When you just push away
No matter what you see
You're still so blind to me
[*backwards talk*]
I've tried
Like you
To do everything you wanted to
This is the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you
(Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end, you'll soon find, we're outta time, left to watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I stay
When you just push away
No matter what you see
You're still so blind to me
Reverse psychology’s failing miserably
It's so hard to be, left all alone
Telling you is the only chance for me
Threes nothing left but, to turn and face you
When I look into your eyes, there's nothing there to see
Nothing but my own mistakes staring back at me
Asking why...
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie (why)
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I stay
When you just push away
No matter what you see
You're still so blind to me
Why I stay
When you just push away.
No matter what you see
You're still so blind to me

- Amp Live featuring Zion of Zion I
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head
I watch how the moon sits in the sky on a dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
But the sun doesn’t give the light to the moon
Assuming the moon’s gonna owe it one
It makes me think of how you act for me
You do favors there rapidly
And just turn around and start asking me about things that you want back from me
I’m sick of the tension, sick of the hunger, sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed while I find a place to rest
I’m sick of the tension, sick of the hunger, sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed while I find a place to rest
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand (You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand (You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna,
Two, two three Yo, yo, yo,
Get me in the john to keep me calm
You and your mom keep on the job
Used to be a team patched over time
But you found out bout how you dropped that bomb
Take it to the john your babylon
Crush down with the soundage carry on
I don’t really give a dang you pissed on my lawn
Took a dump like a bum in a battlezone
So sick of you stressing, sick of you fessing, sick of you acting like I owe you some
Find another place to feed your face
If you don’t, we go bump get it up get crunk
So sick of you stressing, sick of you fessing, sick of you acting like I owe you some
Find another place to feed your face
If you don’t, we go bump get it up get drunk
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand (You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand (You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head
You try to take the best of me
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me
You try to take the GGOOOOOOOO
Go away, you try to take the best of me (X10)
Get away from me

- Evidence and DJ Babu of Dilated Peoples featuring Pharoahe Monch
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes, sometimes....
Hybrid
I've been diggin in crates ever since I was livin in space
Before the rat race, before monkeys had you in traits
I mastered numerology, big band theology, performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology
Invented the mic to so I can start blessin it
Chin-checkin' kids to make my point like an impressionist
Many men have tried to shake us
But I twist my chords like double helixes to show them what I'm made of
I buckle knees like leg braces, cast a spell of instrumentalist on all of you emcees who hate us
So you can try on, leave you without a shoulder to cry on
From now to infinite, let icon be bygones
I fire bombs, ghostly notes haunt this
I tried threats, but moved on to a promise
I stomp shit with or without an accomplice
And run the gauntlet with whoever that wants this
High voltage
This is the unforgettable sound
High voltage
Bringin you up and takin you down
High voltage
Comin at you from every side
High voltage
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide

I've put a kink in the backbones, of clones, with microphones
Never satisfied my rhyme jones
Spraying bright day over what you might say
My blood types krylon, Technicolor type A
On highways write with road rage
Cages a win, cages a tin, that bounce all around
Surround sound
Devouring the scenes
Subliminal gangrene paintings, over all the same things
Sing songs karaoke copy bullshit
Break bones verbally with sticks and stones tactics
Forth dimension, compact convention
Write rhymes with ease while the track stands at attention
Men to put you away, with the pencil
Pistol, official, sixteen line, a rhyme missile
While you risk your all
I pick out at your flaws
Singing rah blah, blah, blah you can say you saw
High voltage
This is the unforgettable sound
High voltage
Bringin you up and takin you down
High voltage
Comin at you from every side
High voltage
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
High voltage
This is the unforgettable sound
High voltage
Bringin you up and takin you down
High voltage
Comin at you from every side
High voltage
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
Who's the man, the man in your hand over your land
Roving over man's bolding when he's jammin your plans ova
I am vices clorousos, the most ferocious
When I spy my third eye, it's extremely high voltage
That's why I need ruby corks glasses, cause when I glance at the chest
Then I might blast the masses
Subliminals translated through piano
Integrated in flow, calculated to nano
My IU skills are when I mean plea sees the rhyme I hear as I proceed through time
I walk through the walls and the inanimate obstacles
While educed to the reduction of cells and molecules
I bring the knowledge the you swallow like the state of hologram
I bot your head, fat your lip like collagen
A telepath of the another verse with no postage
Mike Shinoda, we are high voltage
High voltage
This is the unforgettable sound
High voltage
Bringin you up and takin you down
High voltage
Comin at you from every side
High voltage
Making the rhythm and rhyme collide
High voltage
This is the unforgettable sound
High voltage
Bringin you up and takin you down
High voltage
Comin at you from every side
High voltage

WTH> YOU
- Chairman Hahn featuring Aceyalone
You Come on! I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static
And put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
Slow to react
Even though you're so close to me
You're still so distant, and I can't bring you back
It's true, the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
(You, now I see, keeping everything inside)
With you
(You, now I see, even when I close my eyes)
With you
(You, now I see, keeping everything inside)
With you
(You, now I see, even when I close my eyes)
With you
Ughhhh!
I hit you and you hit me back
And we fall to the floor
The rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
But when things go wrong, I pretend the past isn't real
Now I'm trapped in this memory
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake
Slow to react
Even though you're close to me
You're still so distant, and I can't bring you back
It's true, the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
(You, now I see, keeping everything inside)
With you
(You, now I see, even when I close my eyes)
With you
(You, now I see, keeping everything inside)
With you
(You, now I see, even when I close my eyes)
Ughhhh!
(No)
I wont let you control my fate while i'm holding the weight of the world on my conscience
(No)
I wont just sit here and wait while you weighin your options
Your makin a fool of me
(No)
You didn’t dare to try and say you don’t care
And solemnly swear not to follow me there
(No)
It aint like me to beg on my knees
Oh, please oh baby please
That’s not how I’m doin things
(No)
No I’m not upset, no I’m not angry
I know love is love and love sometimes, it doesn’t pay me
(No)
I'm never without you, I’ll always be with you You'll never forget me, I’m keeping you with me (No) I wont let you take me to the end of my road
While you’re burning and torching my soul
(No)
No I’m not your puppet
And no, no, no, I wont let you go
No, no matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
No matter how far we've come
I, I can't wait to see tomorrow
With you
(You, now I see, keeping everything inside)
With you
(You, now I see, even when I close my eyes)
With you
(You, now I see, keeping everything inside)
With you
(You, now I see, even when I close my eyes)
Ughhhhh!

PPR:KUT
- Cheapshot and Jubacca featuring Rasco and Planet Asia of Cali Agents
Why does it feel like night today
Something in here’s not right today
Why I am so uptight today
Paranoia’s all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like to
have a voice in the back of my head
Like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
Face that watches everytime I lie
Face that laughs everytime I fall
and watches everything
So I know that when its time to sink or swim
The face inside is hearing me right beneath my skin
[CHORUS]
Its like I’m paranoid looking over my back
Its like a whirlwind inside of my head
Its like I can't stop what I’m hearing within
Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin
Hey yo, here we go again with the pain I feel isn't real but in my mind
But I find myself in places with names, but not faces
My memory races at speeds hundred degrees
My soul (it bleeds?) devil must’ve planted the seed
Now it feels like my backs against the wall, I’m taking the fall
Whenever I call nobody's responding at all
But I don't who I could trust they screaming my name
I need somebody to help me out of the flame
all I’m tryin to do is just master me all I want to do is smoke a blaster beat
but something keeps talking to me consciously
responsibly it keeps haunting me
From dusk till dawn
Everything has something for ya
That voice inside of your head got to projected, Paranoia
cold sweat.
Shining on your face exposing your purpose and if I
ripped off your skin I’d probably find another verse
Its nothin worse than trying to bring yourself up back from the dead
so I advise you listen to that voice in the back of your head
[CHORUS]
The face inside is right beneath your skin [4x]
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me [3x] [CHORUS 2x]

Graffiti skies (echoed)
I don’t think y’all ready. Yo, I don’t think y’all ready)
Graffiti decorations under a sky of gray
This constant apprehension’s still giving me away
The lessons I’ve forgotten inside of all I’ve learned.
Now I find myself in question (Point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association (Point the finger at me again)
I wanna runaway (I wanna runaway)
I wanna know the truth (I wanna know the truth)
I wanna know the answers (I wanna know the answers)
I wanna shut the door (And open up my mind)
And open up my mind (And open up my mind)
Paper bags and angry voices under a sky of gray
This constant apprehension won’t seem to go away
All my talk of starting over, these words were never true
Now I find myself in question (Point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association (Point the finger at me again)
I wanna runaway (I wanna runaway)
I wanna know the truth (I wanna know the truth)
I wanna know the answers (I wanna know the answers)
I wanna shut the door (And open up my mind)
And open up my mind (And open up my mind)
Gonna runaway, Gonna runaway, Runaway {X6} (Y’all not ready)
Hey yo, I don’t think y’all ready for what I’m bout to do
Y’all new school dudes ain’t even got no clue
How dare you forget about Pam and Zulu?
Kool Hurk, Jazzy Day, they paved they way.
Let me spit to y’all who said I wasn’t gonna make it
Every time I blaze it, y’all the first to hate it.
My team in the keys supreme and stay strong,
Got the true serum, son, they scared to put us on.
Can’t get with hybrids, get off you high anus
Too many artist’s dyin’ for us, some have got to blaze it
Still bringin’ B.K., Brooklyn ‘till your num
Hell fighting family into ya nation, bangin hits in your backyard on an LP song,
I’m little communer named Pheonix Orion
I wanna runaway (I wanna runaway)
I wanna know the truth (I wanna know the truth)
I wanna know the answers (I wanna know the answers)
I wanna shut the door (And open up my mind)
And open up my mind (And open up my mind)

This is my December, This is my time of the year
This is my December, This is all so clear
Just wish that I didn’t feel like there was something I missed
Give it all away
Just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed
Give it all away
This is my December, This is my snow covered home
This is my December, This is me alone
And I (Just wish that I didn’t feel like there was something I missed)
And I (Take back all the things I said to make you feel like that)
And I (Just wish that I didn’t feel like there was something I missed)
And I (Take back all the things that I said to you)
And I, give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to
This is my December, These are my snow covered dreams
This is me pretending, this is all I need
And I (Just wish that I didn’t feel like there was something I missed)
And I (Take back all the things I said to make you feel like that)
And I (Just wish that I didn’t feel like there was something I missed)

This is my December, This is all so clear
Give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to
Give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

Myself
Myself
What do I do to ignore them behind me
Do I follow my instincts blindly
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening
Do I sit here and try to stand it
Or do I try to catch them red-handed
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness
Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin
I make the right moves but I'm lost within
I put on my daily facade but then
I just end up getting hurt again
By myself (myself)
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can't rely on myself (myself)
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I cant rely on myself
I cant look around
(Its too much to take in)
I cant hold on
(When I’m stretched so thin)
I cant slow down
(Watching everything spin)
I cant look past
(Its starting over again)
If I turn my back I'm defenseless
And to go blindly seems senseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then they'll take from me 'till everything is gone
If I let them go I'll be outdone
But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer
By myself (myself)
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I can't rely on myself (myself)
I ask why
But in my mind I find
I cant rely on myself
I cant look around
(Its too much to take in)
I cant hold on
(When I’m stretched so thin)
I cant slow down
(Watching everything spin)
I cant look past
(Its starting over again)
Don’t you (being said repeatedly in the background)
Don’t you (know)
I cant tell you how to make it (go)
No mater what I do, how hard I (try)
I cant seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside
Don’t you (know)
I cant tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I cant seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside
Don’t you (know)
I cant tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I cant seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside
Don’t you (know)
I cant tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I cant seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside
Don’t you (know)
I cant tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I cant seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside
Don’t you (know)
I cant tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I cant seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside

Break...[echo]
I'm about to break (to break!)
I need room to breathe... [x3]

I cannot take this anymore
Saying everything I’ve said before
All these words, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Less I hear, the less you say
But you'll find that out anyway
I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again [x6]
Just like before...
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break!
I need a little room to breathe
I'm about to break!
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break!
I need a little room to breathe
And I'm about to break!
Break! [echo]
These are the places where I can't feel
Torn from my body, my flesh it heals
During this night we can fall apart
Waiting alone I can not resist
Feeling this hate I have never missed
These are the memories
The reason to rip off my......face
fighting and roaring,
and roaring boring [12x]
Shut up when I'm talking to you! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
Shut up when I'm talking to you! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge, and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge, and I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge, and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge, and I'm about to
Break!

Crawling in my skin
Crawling in my skin
Without a sense of confidence, confidence, confidence...
Consuming, confusing
Crawling my skin
Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take
There’s something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
I'm crawling in my skin
(Crawling in my skin)
These wounds they will not heal
(These wounds they will not heal)
Fear is how I fall
(Fear is how I fall)
Confusing, confusing what is real
Confusing what is real...
There’s something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling, I cant seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence, and I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt his way before, so insecure...
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort endlessly as pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
Its haunting how I cant seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence, and I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before, so insecure...
Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence, and I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take
Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence, confidence...
Without a sense of confidence, and I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take
To find myself again, my walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence, and I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before, so insecure...
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
