Kill The Emperor lyrics - Everlast
I think I would, if I could, kill the emperor
Let's stop the war and feed the poor, let's kill the emperor
Let's stop the lies, the dead can't rise, silence every mother's cries
I think I would, if I could, kill the emperor
Yo, it's like resident evil
The emperor's people don't give a mad fuck about your life
They'll fuck your wife and your kids, they've got people doing bids
For being slaves to the dope that they supplying
Still they keep lying
And tell you that it's some cartel
While they waiting on the heaven they're creating the hell
And they rape the constitution while you wait in your cell
And for the victors go the spoils and that's oil wells, call Orson Wells
'Cause the world's at war
And the front-line is just outside your front door
Fuck the New York Times and fuck CNN
And politicians that pretend to be the working man's friend
I think I would, if I could, kill the emperor
Let's stop the war and feed the poor, let's kill the emperor
Let's stop the lies, the dead can't rise, silence every mother's cries
I think I would, if I could, kill the emperor
Yo, the emperor's a liar, the fields are on fire
Oil prices get higher, time's about to expire
Hurricane Katrina and Asian tsunamis
Adolescent mommies and high school snipers
Final days are coming, get ready for trial
Americans, they live in fifty states of denial
Have a coke and a smile or some crack in a vile
You can even buy a pill to keep you hard for a while
For these girls gone wild in this world at war
It's the same old whores, it's the new crusade
Yo, the plan been made, they lied to invade
I'm on the palace lawn with my live grenade
'Cause
I think I would, if I could, kill the emperor
Let's stop the war and feed the poor, let's kill the emperor
Let's stop the lies, the dead can't rise, silence every mother's cries
I think I would, if I could, kill the emperor
Folsom Prison Blues lyrics - Everlast
[Johnny Cash cover]
Who you trying to get crazy with Whitey
Don't you know I'm loco?
I hear that train a-comin'
Comin' around the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine
Since I don't know when
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison
Time keeps draggin' on
Andthat train just keeps a-rollin'
On down to San Antone
When I was just a baby
My mama told me, son
Always be a good boy
Don't ever play with guns
But I shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowin'
I hang my head and cry
I bet there's rich folks eatin'
From a fancy dining car
They're probably drinking whiskey
And smoking big cigars
Well, I know I had it coming
I know I can't be free
Those people keep a-movin'
And that's what tortures me
If they freed me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I'd probably move it just a little
Farther down the line
Far from Folsom Prison
That's where I long to stay
And I'd let that lonesome whistle
Blow out my blues away
Stone In My Hand lyrics - Everlast
Ride with the devil, hide with the Lord
I got no pistol, ain't got no sword
I got no army, ain't got no land
Ain't got nothing but the stone that's in my hand
Stone in my hand, stone in my hand
Ain't got nothing but the stone that's in my hand
You say you want a revolution, well, get on board
We'll start a new crusade, we'll start a Holy war
Don't need no orders, don't need no plan
I don't need nothing but the stone that's in my hand
Stone in my hand, stone in my hand
I don't need nothing but the stone that's in my hand
Stone in my hand, stone in my hand
I don't need nothing but the stone that's in my hand
You build your fighter jets, you drop your bombs
You kill our fathers, you kill our moms
Kill our brothers and our sisters, and our uncles and our aunts
Still I'm fighting with the stone that's in my hand
Stone in my hand, stone in my hand
Still I'm fighting with the stone that's in my hand
Stone in my hand, stone in my hand
All the love that's in my heart and the stone that's in my hand
Blood runs the gutters, smoke fills the sky
Every son that suffers, every mother cries
So if you've had enough and you're ready for your stand
I'll be waiting with the stone that's in my hand
Stone in my hand, stone in my hand
I'll be waiting with the stone that's in my hand
Stone in my hand, stone in my hand
All the love that's in my heart and the stone that's in my hand
Anyone lyrics - Everlast
I got my pick up truck and I got my gun
And I got a taste for whiskey and pills
I know I'm kinda fucked 'cause I'm my father's son
And I gotta hole in my heart I can't fill
Turn off the parking lights
Down by the river's edge
This is my darkest night, girl
You're swimming in my head
It happens all the time
I blow it every time
People change with time
Call me anytime, girl
I miss you, oh, so often
And what's been said is done
It's my only option
Girl, I'll be anyone for you
Anyone
Out on the interstate
Play my radio and I confessed all my sins
Been driven seven hours
Still got three to go
It always ends where it begins
You got your broken wings
I got my sewn up heart
Girl, all these fucked up things
They keep us torn apart
It happens all the time
I blow it every time
People change with time
Call me anytime, girl
I miss you, oh, so often
What's been said is done
(Said is done)
It's my only option
I'll kill anyone for you
Anyone, anywhere, anytime for you
Anyone, anywhere, anytime for you
Anyone, anywhere, anytime for you
Die In Yer Arms lyrics - Everlast
Girl, I wanna die in yer arms tonight
I really don't care about the wrong or right
The fruit is forbidden but it's sweet and it's ripe
I think I'm gonna pick me some and take me a bite
Baby girl, looks so good, she walks so mean
Got a vicious little sway, I think she's semi-obscene
She'll pick your bones clean, oh, my God, she's so fine
She's sweeter than the dew out on the grapes on the vine
I'ma pick her, I'ma squeeze her, I'ma make me some wine
I'ma drink her till I'm a crazy, I'ma drink till I'm blind
I'ma touch her so good, I'ma treat her so fine
I'm gonna make love to her soul, I'm gonna fuck all with her mind
Girl, I wanna die in yer arms tonight
I really don't care about the wrong or right
The fruit is forbidden but it's sweet and it's ripe
I think I'm gonna pick me some and take me a bite
Baby girl, acts so proper, like daddy's little daughter
A wolf in sheep's clothing, leading lambs out to the slaughter
She's looking so young, she's smelling so pretty
She's a junkie on a binge and her drug is the city
She's a vicious little bitty, attitude is shitty
If I get my way she's probably gonna come home with me
Talk ain't good for nothing, eyes are made for crying
Bombs are made for dropping, girl, yer arms were made for dying
Girl, I wanna die in yer arms tonight
I really don't care about the wrong or right
The fruit is forbidden but it's sweet and it's ripe
I think I'm gonna pick me some and take me a bite
Girl, I wanna die in yer arms tonight
I really don't care about the wrong or right
The fruit is forbidden but it's sweet and it's ripe
I think I'm gonna pick me some and take me a bite
Die in yer arms tonight
Care about the wrong or right
Forbidden but it's sweet and it's ripe
Pick me some and take me a bite
Friend lyrics - Everlast
There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told
It's incurable
There's a darkness in my heart
Slowly tearin' me apart
It's unbearable
Drop of blood, a lake of tears
And baby, after all these years
You're still beautiful
And I've been loved and I've been used
Cut wide open, scarred and bruised
I'm unbreakable
Flesh, it heals I know
Hearts, they never mend
Lovers come and go, girl
Right now I need a friend
Walk for miles, talk for days
And I keep trying to change my ways
It's so difficult
You kick and scream
You curse and yell
Tell me I should go to hell
It's so typical
Touch my heart
Feel my pain
Let me know I'm not insane
You're so merciful
Break your heart, I cheat, I lie
And honestly I don't know why
I'm so pitiful
Flesh, it heals I know
Hearts, they never mend
Lovers come and go, girl
Right now I need a friend, yeah
There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told
It's incurable
There's darkness in my heart
That's slowly tearin' me apart
It's unbearable, yeah
Flesh, it heals I know
Hearts, they never mend
Lovers come and go, girl
Right now I need a friend, yeah
Right now I need a friend
There's a sickness in my soul
And I don't know but I been told
It's incurable
Everyone lyrics - Everlast
Please, please, please don't
Leave me now, girl
After all I've done for you
On my knees here
Let's work it out, woman
After all that we've been through
I told you that everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone suffers and everyone cries
Old people laugh, young people try
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone hustles and everyone strives
Bad people win, good people die
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Hush your mouth, girl
And settle down, woman
'Cause you don't make no sense
Make up your mind, girl
And come around now
Come down from off that fence
Don't you know everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone suffers and everyone cries
Old people laugh, young people try
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone hustles and everyone strives
Bad people win, good people die
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Watch your temper, girl
And calm your nerves down
Better watch how you react
Put your hands down
And back up off me, woman
'Cause you might get touched back
I told you that everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone suffers and everyone cries
Old people laugh and young people try
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone hustles and everyone strives
Bad people win, good people die
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone suffers and everyone cries
Old people laugh and young people try
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Everyone cheats, everyone lies
Everyone hustles and everyone strives
Bad people win, good people die
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
When they look in your eyes
When they look in your eyes
Lovers, they know when they look in your eyes
Naked lyrics - Everlast
Blue sky, devil eye
Cyanide, suicide
Double down, let it ride
Lose your money, bruise your pride
Easy came, easy went
Ghetto slums, tenements
Things look real, Old Testament
Blame it all on the president
The emperor's got brand new clothes
And everybody but him knows, he's naked
But you don't say a word
The emperor's got brand new jewels
Wake up soon, you silly fools, he's naked
But you don't say a word
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
While liberty stands naked screaming in horror
The emperor raped her but we just ignore her
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
Poorer, poorer, poorer, poorer, poorer
Youthanize, youth will rise
Scrutinize, truth from lies
Time to revolutionize
Organize, weaponize
Easy come, easy go
Think I'm movin' just a little bit too slow
Got front row tickets to the big freak show
Wait for the whole freakin' thing to blow
The emperor's got brand new clothes
And everybody but him knows, he's naked
But you don't say a word
The emperor's got brand new jewels
Wake up soon, you silly fools, he's naked
But you don't say a word
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
While liberty stands naked screaming in horror
The emperor raped her but we just ignore her
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
Poorer, poorer, poorer, poorer, poorer
Homicide, genocide
Victimize, paralyze
Empathize and analyze
Compromise and vandalize
Easy come, hard to take
Wide awake, the original fake
Find the heart, drive the stake
Wait for the whole freakin' thing to break
The emperor's got brand new clothes
And everybody but him knows, he's naked
But you don't say a word
The emperor's got brand new jewels
Wake up soon, you silly fools, he's naked
But you don't say a word
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
While liberty stands naked screaming in horror
The emperor raped her but we just ignore her
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
While liberty stands naked screaming in horror
The emperor raped her but we just ignore her
The rich, they get richer, the poor, they get poorer
Poorer, poorer, poorer, poorer, poorer
Stay lyrics - Everlast
I just can't do it, not anymore
Every time I fake a smile, feel just like a whore
I just can't do it, it's beyond my means
And all I know about love, reading fashion magazines
I just can't do it, it can't be done
That's just what I say, 'cause I know I'm not the one
And I've been moving for so long
Life's a million miles away
And I'm the one that made you strong, girl
But I could not make you stay
I just can't do it, it's much too hard
I drive around alone at night, up and down the boulevard
I just can't do it, I feel so old
It looks like the sun is shining but the wind is blowing cold
I just can't do it, it's gone too far
I sit at home alone at night, just wondering where you are
And I've been standing still so long
My mind's a million miles away
I'm the one that made you strong, girl
But I could not make you stay
I just can't do it, no matter how hard I try
You don't come around anymore but I know the reason why
I just can't do it, it's way too late
I hang on with all my might, I can't accept this fate
I just can't do it, I feel so bad
I sit around and think, about all the chances that I've had
And I've been hurting for so long
You're a million miles away
And I'm the one that made you strong, girl
But I could not make you stay
But I could not make you stay
No, I could not make you stay
Letters Home From The Garden Of Stone lyrics - Everlast
Sittin' restless under the moonlight
I know I'm gettin' ready to kill
They say we're goin' in with the daylight
Ma I don't want to but I will
'Cause I don't know the man that kills me
And I don't know these men I kill
I pray to God for my salvation
Wash away the blood I spilled
I try not to think about my family
'Cause it's a little too much to take
Out here I got me and I got my buddy
We can't afford even one mistake
Sorry about writin' on dirty cardboard
It's the only paper that I could find
Tell everyone I got their letters
Tell everyone I'm doin' fine
Late at night when I can dream, Ma
I think about life back in the world
I miss you and Dad, I miss sister Sarah
I miss my wife and my baby girl
Pray for me, pray for my soul, Ma
Pray for me and all my sins
They say that I got a job to do now
And I'll be back when it finally ends
Do you think I should be fighting?
Ma are you proud, are you ashamed
Really I'm tryin' to do the right thing
I hope my government can say the same
'Cause I won't know the man that kills me
And I don't know these men I kill
We all wind up on the same side
'Cause ain't none of us doin' God's will
Tuesday Morning lyrics - Everlast
I was too busy counting all my zeros
Never really thought too much about heroes
Never really thought too much about anyone but me
Never really opened my eyes wide enough so that I could see
I'm just like you, you're just like me
I'm just like you, you're just like me
We're only separated by a few degrees
I'm just like you, you're just like me
Just like me, just like me
Never really thought too much about tomorrow,
never really dealt very well with sorrow
Tired of living my life like a feather floating on the breeze
Trying to find me a good woman that can bring me down to my knee
I'm just like you, you're just like me
We're only separated by a few degrees
I'm just like you, you're just like me
Just like me, just like me
I think I've always tried to do the right the right thing,
I've been a little to scared to ride the lightening
Tired of living my days surrounded by all these fears
Still stuck in my ways haven't changed after all these years
I'm just like you, you're just like me
We're only separated by a few degrees
I'm just like you, you're just like me
Just like me, just like me
Just like me, just like me
Weakness lyrics - Everlast
Met a fine red boned mami
She told me that her name was Lucille
Met her on Fountain Avenue
Sitting on a Cadillac Coupe De Ville
She said, I'm a liar, a thief, a junkie
And I used to be a whore
And I've been trying to shake this monkey
So long, I just can't take it no more
I got a weakness
I got a hunger, I got a jones
I'm sick and I need to get well
I hurt deep in my bone
I got a weakness
I got a fever, I got a thirst
I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble
Just waiting for it to burst
We talked all afternoon
She made me cry, I told some jokes
She looked me deep in my eyes
And told me love was nothing but a cruel hoax
Her grandmother died when she was five
And she never did know her folks
Her father fell in a gun fight
And her mother by an overdose
I got a weakness
I got a hunger, I got a jones
I'm sick and I need to get well
I hurt deep in my bones
I got a weakness
I got a fever, I got a thirst
I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble
Just waiting for it to burst
She said, I've slept with gangsters
Thugs and smugglers, congressman and governors
I've seen therapists and holy men
But this weakness is my only friend
It feeds my need, it numbs my soul
It starts to creep and take control
I sell my flesh, I pierce my skin
And tomorrow I'ma do it all again
'Cause I got a weakness
I got a hunger, I got a jones
I'm sick and I need to get well
I hurt deep in my bones
I got a weakness
I got a fever, I got a thirst
I'm sitting on the edge of the bubble
Just waiting for it to burst
Dirty lyrics - Everlast
And I'm so dirty
Call me daddy
You're so sexy
You can be my bad girl
If someone hurt you
And you tried to hide it
I'll cut you deeper
'Cause I know you like it
Pain I got, girl
Can satisfy you
But I can't love you
I won't even try to
And that junkie urge
Deep down inside you
Couldn't keep my secret
But I know you'd like to
Girl, you never gon' get
Love from a heart of stone
Some of us were just plain
Meant to be alone
I'm all out of secrets
I'm running out of lies
And I can see the end, girl
When I look into your eyes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I'm so nasty
And I'm so greedy
And I'm so lonesome
Girl, I'm so needy
I want to take you
And make you my girl
My willing hostage
My favorite prisoner
I'll be your owner
And I'll be your jailer
I'll be your lover
Girl, I'll be your Savior
I'll be your alpha
And your omega
I'll break your heart, girl
And you'll call me later
Girl, you never gon' get
Love from a heart of stone
Some of us were just plain
Meant to be alone
I'm all out of secrets
I'm running out of lies
And I can see the end, girl
When I look into your eyes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I'm so dirty
Call me daddy
You're so sexy
You can be my bad girl
I'm so dirty
Call me daddy
You're so sexy
You can be my bad girl
I'm so dirty
Call me daddy
You're so sexy
You can be my bad girl
I'm so dirty, yeah
Call me daddy
You're so sexy
You can be my bad girl
The Ocean lyrics - Everlast
She says that she likes the ocean
There's a house up on the hill
Where you can just make out the ocean
There's a woman there waiting for your hard work
And every breath she takes is like artwork
And I think that I can just about touch the ocean
There's 1500 miles between me and my next real smile
I think that I can just about smell the ocean
I'm full of unquestionable devotion
But I think I put a terrible thing in motion
She says that she likes the ocean
There's a house up on the hill
Where the air smells like the sea
I left my heart up there, rusting in the salty air
I tried to make it home but I lost the key
It's been 600 days since I laid eyes on your gorgeous face
I'm trying to make it home but I lost the key
I'm waiting for the Lord to set me free
I'm wishing that you were standing here next to me
She says that she likes the ocean
She says that she likes the ocean
There's a house up on the hill
(She says that she likes the ocean)
Where you can just make out the ocean
(She says that she likes the ocean)
There's a house up on the hill
It used to feel like home
(She says that she likes the ocean)
There's a house up on the hill
Where the air smells like the sea
(She says that she likes the ocean)
There's a house up on the hill
Let It Go lyrics - Everlast
Changed your look, cut your hair
And I pretended like I don't care
You're so lovely, girl, stop crying
Bite my lip, I close my eyes
Try to tell myself you're no prize
Can't forget you, girl, but I'm tryin'
No one else will ever be
The things that you are to me, girl
Kind of special, hey, I ain't lying
Bite your neck, I pull your hair
You're so innocent and unaware
I'm so lonely, I'm so scared, girl
I'm dying here
Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, I really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?
Grab your shoes, walk out the door
Like you've done a thousand times before
But you got nowhere you can go to
Try to run, girl, but you can't hide
All the voices deep down inside
Repeat all the things that I told you
You're steadily on my mind
Girl, spoonin' you from behind
That's my favorite way that I hold you
For every time I let you down
For every tear that touched the ground
For every sincere apology that I owe you, girl
Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, I really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?
I've been loving you a little too long
And still I keep holding on
It's been a year since you been gone, girl
Check it out now
Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, I really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?
Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?
Saving Grace lyrics - Everlast
One time around the block
Two times around the clock
Three times, don't cross the little lady (lady)
So pretty and, oh, so bold
Got a heart full of gold on a lonely road
She said, "I don't even think that God can save me" (save me)
(Am I) gainin' ground
(Am I) losin' face
(Have I) lost and found my saving grace
Thankful for the gift my angels gave me
Born alone, we die alone
'n' I'm just sittin' here by the phone
Waitin' for the Lord to send my callin'
Street wise from the boulevard
Jesus only knows that she tries too hard
She's only tryin' to keep the sky from fallin'
Any man who says it's Heaven and Hell
Prob'ly got somethin' useless to sell
You ask me if I'm saved, but what's it to ya?
Blow a quarter, cop another eight
You're runnin' out of high, you're losin' your faith
Throw your hands up and scream, "Hallelujah"
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Amen
One time around the sun
Another year older and my work ain't done
It's time for me to write the final chapter (chapter)
Deal the cards and roll the dice
Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll are my only vice
Tryin' to figure out just what's here after (here after)
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Amen
My Medicine (Demo Version) lyrics - Everlast
[Verse 1:]
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jacked up the spoon on the candlestick
Dopestick pimping on the one-trick pony
Yet she's kind of skinny, but she gets my money
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine!
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine!
[Verse 2:]
Jack starts hanging around with some fiends
Got strung out, sold the cow for beans
Told young wifey: "I love you honey
But you gotta hit the streets, go and get my money"
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine!
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine!
[Chorus:]
Girl, my love is gonna last, just as long as my high
You can trust every word I'm gonna tell you is a lie
[Verse 3:]
Jack starts track up and down the hill
Got to walk for ace but he told him to chill
Rain comes shine, comes snow then sunny
Get the fuck out, go and get my money
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine!
Get my money, buy my medicine
Buy my medicine, buy my medicine!
[Outro: overlapping the saxophone until faded]
Girl, my love's gonna last, just as long as my high
You can trust every word I'm gonna say will be a lie
Girl my love's gonna last, just as long as my high
You can trust every word I'm gonna tell you is a lie
Girl, I love you!
I can't see you, ha ha ha ha!
