Warning: serious profanity in the following
I'm a sucker, I bought the Cradle 2 The Grave soundtrack (I can't wait till Friday!) and really only the first 2 evoke any sort of reaction from me. By that I mean they are actually worth a 2nd, 3rd, 4th listen and more for their entertainment value. I couldn't even tell you much about the rest of the soundtrack. Actually, that's a lie, I can recall the Foxy Brown song, but I can't tell you the title. So I guess that song is a half success.
Anyway, below is what I believe to be the lyrics to the 2nd song. I can't say they're the true lyrics 'cuz I couldn't find any other versions that would dispute its accuracy, though I swear they're just republications of one person's attempt to transcribe the song. Why am I posting these song lyrics? I'm not too sure actually. I think it's my surprise over how this song washes over me. The words are pretty flaming, and one would think it'd be good "anger" music. But it doesn't get a rise out of me. On the contrary, it entertains me, amuses me, soothes me. (Though I had no idea I needed soothing.) Can anybody tell me how THAT works??? If you've read the title of this post, consider that fair warning.
DMX Feat. Eminem, Obie Trice - Go To Sleep
[Eminem]
I ain't gonna eat. I ain't gonna sleep
Ain't gonna breathe 'til I see what I wanna see
And what I wanna see is you go to sleep in the dirt
Permanently. You just being hurt; this ain't gonna work
For me it just wouldn't be sufficient enough
Cuz we are just gonna be enemies
As long as we breathe I don't ever see either of us
Coming to terms where we can agree
There ain't gonna be no reasoning speaking wit' me
You speak on my seed, then me, no speak-a ingles
So we gonna beef, and keep on beefin, unless
You're gonna agree to meet with me in the flesh
And settle this face to face and you're gonna see
A demon unleashed in me that you've never seen
And you're gonna see this gangster beat on himself
I see you D-12, and thanks, but me need no help
Me do this one all by my lonely. I don't need fifteen of my homies
When I see you, I'm seeing you. Me and you only
We never met but best believe you gon' know me
When I'm this close to seeing you exposed as phoney
Come on, bitch, show me. Pick me up, throw me
Lift me up. Hold me. Just like you told me
You was gonna do, that's what I thought, you're pitiful
I'm rid of you, all of you, Ja, you'll get it too!
[Chorus- Eminem]
Now go to sleep bitch!
Die, motherfucker, die! Ugh, time's up, bitch, close ya eyes
Go to sleep, bitch! (what?)
Why are you still alive? How many times I gotta say, close ya eyes?
And go to sleep bitch! (what?)
Die motherfucker die. Bye-bye, motherfucker. Bye! Bye!
Go to sleep bitch! (what?)
Why are you still alive? Why, die motherfucker, ah, ah, ah...
...Go to sleep bitch!
[Obie Trice]
We got you niggaz nervous
On purpose, to hurt your focus, you'se not MC's, you'se worthless
You'se not them G's, you'se a circus, you'se no appeal, please
You'se curtains, you use words, cool heard, slurred in two thousand third
You'se perpin, you'se no threat, who's ya servin?
When lyrically oughta bury you beneath the dirt when
You fuck with a label overseeing the Earth
Shady muthafucka: O. Trice's birth
And as I mold I become a curse
So we can put down the verse, take it to the turf
Cock and squeeze, and he who reach the hearse is he who
Depicts fiction in his verse
And as I breathe, and you be deceased
The world believe you deceived just to speak
You'se not the streets. You'se the desk
Use not your chest nigga, use a vest
Before two's choose ya rest, you chose death
Six feet deep, nigga, that's the debt
[Chorus- Eminem]
Now go to sleep bitch!
Die, motherfucker, die! Ugh, time's up, bitch, close ya eyes
Go to sleep, bitch! (what?)
Why are you still alive? How many times I gotta say, close ya eyes?
And go to sleep bitch! (what?)
Die motherfucker die. Bye-bye, motherfucker. Bye! Bye!
Go to sleep bitch! (what?)
Why are you still alive? Why, die motherfucker, ah, ah, ah...
...Go to sleep bitch!
[DMX]
Hey dog I'ma walk like a beast, talk like the streets
I'ma stay blazin New York wit' the heat
Stalk on the beat, walk wit' my feet
Understand my pain, the rain ain't sleet
Peep how I'm moving. Peep where I'm going
Shit don't seep, then sleep not knowin
But I'ma keep growing, getting larger than life
Easy-going with the same one that started the fight
He be knowing how dog get, when dog gon' bite
Tried to show him the dog shit. It's dog for life
Grand champ and my Blood Line is tight
Cuz it's all good, it's all right
Niggas tried to holla but couldn't holla back
Now they gots to swallow everything in the sac
Blood Line; and we can go track for track
Damn dog, why'd you have to do them niggas like that?
[Chorus- Eminem]
Now go to sleep bitch!
Die, motherfucker, die! Ugh, time's up, bitch, close ya eyes
Go to sleep, bitch! (what?)
Why are you still alive? How many times I gotta say, close ya eyes?
And go to sleep bitch! (what?)
Die motherfucker die. Bye-bye, motherfucker. Bye! Bye!
Go to sleep bitch! (what?)
Why are you still alive? Why, die motherfucker, ah, ah, ah...
...Go to sleep bitch!
[Eminem]
All you motherfuckers, take that!
Here, take this too, bitch! Uh, Uh, Uh, Uh, Waaaaaahoo
We're killing all you motherfuckers dead, all of you
Fake ass gangsters! No more press! No more press!
Rot, motherfuckers, rot! Decay, in the dirt, bitch. In the motherfucking dirt!
Die nameless, bitch! Die nameless! No more fame!
Ahhhhhhhhhh! Hahahaha
Yo X, come on man. Obie, let's go. Hahaha
