So show us what some of your favorite lyrics are, post the verse and the title and artist

i'll start

My Songs - Atmosphere

"I wanna shelter everybody from the snakes
And my sleeves know a couple of tricks for hunting breaks.
(10,000 lakes) Multiple choice of where to drown
So I quote the horse it goes “what floats is what’s found.”

i will post more, you guys should to as you come across new stuff

These warehouse wages
Kill the ends introduction
man I should have schooled it up
When I was younger should have stuck to plan
Always had the dreams of being more self assertive
And my kids a teenager now he needs the health insurance
So break my body
Break break my soul down
Just another zombie walking blindly through your ghost town
Pull up to the bar to politic and tap the power
Aint nobody really all that jolly at your happy hour
But I don’t want to go home yet
So I’m gonna talk to my cigarette
And that television set
It doesn’t matter what brand or station
Anything to take away from the current situation

No overtime pay no holiday
Months behind on everything but the lottery
Went around the corner guaranteeing that my car died
Wifey having trouble trying to juggle both the part times
My cup aint close to filled up
We trying to build up so we can have enough
And when I finally get the color
There won’t be nothing left to paint on
A friend of mine tried to kill himself to the same song

My better half is mad at making magic out of canned goods
My tax bracket status gotta questioning my man hood
My shorty got caught smoking weed at a concert
And if I smack em everybody treats me like a monster
My neighbors aint doing much better
And we making competition instead of sticking together
Cant save no nest egg in fact this nest is rented
In fact that rent is late, wait
The money aint here the raise aint coming
Just me and my son and that crazy woman
And those bartenders this whole fucking country
Got everybody swallowing that lunch meat
Maybe we can speed up the process
Kill me in my thirties in the name of progress
Put me in the dirt and then change the topic
Some time it seems like the only way to stop it
Contemplate my departure date
Doesn’t take a lot to get a lot of us to talk this way
Take a shot at me that's all I'm obligated for
Apparently my only guarantee is a walk away

The only guarantee in life is a life worth dying for
The only guarantee in life is a life worth dying for
Cause death don’t wait for no one
Sitting on your front door
The only guarantee in life is a life worth dying for
Cause death don’t wait for no one
Sitting on your front door [IMG]metrolyrics.com/images/l/2147468327.jpg[/IMG]

"Summer time and the wind is blowing outside in lower Chelsea
And I don't know what I'm doing in this city,
The sun is always in my eyes,
It crashes through the windows, when I'm sleeping on the couch,
When I came to visit you,
That's when I knew that I could never have you,
I knew that before you did,
Still I'm the one who's stupid
And there's this burning, like there's always been,
I've never been so alone, and I've never been so alive.

Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by,
The cigarette ash flies in your eyes, and you don't mind, you smile,
And say the world doesn't fit with you.
I don't believe you, you're so serene.
Careening through the universe, your axis on a tilt, you're guiltless and free,
I hope you take a piece of me with you,
And there's things Id like to do that you don't believe in,
I would like to build something, but you'd never see it happen
And there's this burning, like there's always been,
Ive never been so alone, and i've, Ive never been so alive,

And there's this burning, ah ya, there was this burning. aye aye aye

Wheres the soul. I want to know, new york city's evil.
The surface is everything, but I could never do that,
Someone would see through that.
And this is the last time, we'll be friends again.
And I'll get over you ,you'll wonder, who I am.
And there's this burning, just like there's always been,
Ive never been so alone, alone, and i've, and i've, I've never been so alive, so alive

I go home to the coast. it starts to rain, I paddle out on the water alone,
Taste the salt and taste the pain. I'm not thinking of you again,
Summer dies and swells rise, the sun goes down in my eyes, see this rolling wave, darkly coming to take me, home,
And I never been so alone, and Ive never been so alive.

Think of You - A Fine Frenzy

Just to put your mind at ease,
you don't owe me anything,
you've paid me well in memories.

Where the Falls Begin - Mae

Another day, you walk this spinning wheel
Forgetting how to feel
And how long since it took your breath away
Don't spend another minute trying to
Find out where the moments have gone

Guarantees is such a good song. Alright, since were on an atmosphere role

In Her Music Box - Atmosphere

"Yeah, Daddy knows people he's important
The guy with the suit and tie they see at the court
And it seems like he ain't tryin' to talk to police
But at the car wash they treat him
Like the star that she sees
They like Poppa's big wheels
And the lollipop she gets
Makes her feel like a big deal
Not allowed to have it yet, gotta sit still
Like the toy that she knows is gonna come
With the Kid's Meal
She loves drive thru food
Health conscious Dad, he buys her the juice
A little sip a soda builds the pride
Go ahead Baby Girl don't spill those fries
Nuh-Uh Poppa can't roll a messy office
Compulsive in the way
She lay them napkins all across the seat
Never puts her feet on the upholstery
Just kicks 'em side to side to the beat on the radio
She sings along like Dad does
She knows all the words but leaves out the bad ones
Except bitch, she always says the word bitch
Because it makes her Daddy laugh, it's her magic trick
And when Daddy picks Mommy up they fight
They fight about money, they fight about life
So she concentrates so so hard on the music
And loses herself inside of the bass and the movement"

Hahahaha.

Atmosphere - Always Coming Back Home to You
A car pulled up, a fixed up cutlass
Lady and her girl got out and left it runnin'
They went inside of the deli
Placed an order with an extra dollar fifty bottled water 'cause her daughter's picky
When they came out mommy gave me a glance
That said "Man can love an angel, but he's gotta take the chance"
Already knew the deal, I lit one up and walked
So they got back in they Oldsmobile, belted up and took off

Cunninlynguists - Thugged Out Since Cub Scouts
Cuttin' in the lunch line - what you thinkin', dawg?
I'll stab you dead in your eye with a lincoln log.

Brother Ali - Truth is Here / Rainwater
I truly believed every word I ever uttered on a drumbreak
Right or wrong, life go on, but it wasn't nothin' fake

Granddad was in the twilight of his life
When he closed his eyes tight and opened his wrists wide
What make a tenth round fighter with a winnin' score
Decide he need to throw a towel before the whistle blow?
Maybe I'll never know, but I inherited his poetic soul
So the symbolism's yet to show
Was life so obscene that death was more serene?
Or was in old author tryin' to write his own closing scene?

Real bored so I figured I'd throw in another verse from Louis Logic's Idiot Gear I like a lot.

Most of y'all are just wishin' that this was fiction
And itchin' to ask your chick if your dick isn't a depiction
Of fittin' inside a stitchin' when you're sewing it up
Anf to think that most of this stuff is just over a fuck
I know what you're thinkin', we've all grown over women
And livin' without 'em seems like it's harder than livin' with 'em
But if you hit 'em, you'll probably end up in prison fellas
Then you'll be someone's bitch, I hope your girlfriend isn't jealous
This Cinderella shit is totally irrelevant
You'll never find a girl older than seven that's been celibate
'Cause every girl has been around the block with a guy or ten
And guys are sensitive it's better that you lie to them
Even the violent men who dress up in street clothes
With stilletos and heat knows they got delicate egos
If she chose to disclose all the persons with whom
She put in work in the womb it would burst your balloon.

...And no one wants to share their chick with the last guy
To get rid of the bad vibes you figure you'll ask why
Her past life's still chillin' in the picture frame
She'd prolly forget his name if the dick's the same...

If she wants to dance and drink all night then there’s no one that can stop her. She’s going until the house lights come up or her stomach spills onto the floor. This night is going to end when we’re damn well ready for it to be over. Worked all week long now the music is playing on our time. We do what we do to get by, and then we need a release.You get mixed up with the wrong guys. You get messed up on the wrong drugs. Sometimes the party takes you places that you didn’t really plan on going. When people see the track marks on her arms she knows what they’re thinking. She keeps on working for that minimum, as if a high school education offered any other options. They don’t know nothing about redemption. They don’t know nothing about recovery. Some people just ain't the type for marriage and family.No mother ever dreams that her daughters going to grow up to be a junkie.No mother ever dreams that her daughters going to grow up to sleep alone.She’s out of step with the style. She don’t know where the actions happening. You know the downtown club scene ain't nothing like it used to be. You reach a point where there’s not a lie in the world that you could use to make the boys believe your still in you twenties. But they keep getting younger, don't they baby?She’s not waiting for them to come over and ask for the privilege. She can still here that Rebel Yell just as loud as it was in 1983. There ain't no Johnny coming home to share a bed with her and she doesn’t care.No mother ever dreams that her daughters going to grow up to be a junkie.No mother ever dreams that her daughters going to grow up to sleep alone.If she had to live it all over again you know she wouldn’t change anything for the world.

I'll be happy if someone can name the rapper.

All my attributes is dangerous
My moustache is murderous
My hipbone'll send your clique home with they ribs blown back and they wigs sewn to they six pack
Cartilage in a gift wrap
My cartridges click clack
And leave you and your bitch clapped
Now ya bitch ass need a neck brace with a chin strap
We swing machetes at crews with little ice picks and niggas round my way call me the cuban missile crisis

ghostface killah's part in the song "impossible" by wu tang. by far.

Call an ambulance, Jamie been shot, word to Kemit
Don't go Son, nigga you my motherfuckin heart
Stay still Son, don't move, just think about Keeba
She'll be three in January, your young God needs you
The ambulance is taking too long
Everybody get the fuck back, excuse me bitch, gimme your jack
One, seven one eight, nine one one, low battery, damn
Blood comin out his mouth, he bleedin badly
Nahhh Jamie, don't start that shit
Keep your head up, if you escape hell we gettin fucked up
When we was eight, we went to Bat Day to see the Yanks
In Sixty-Nine, his father and mines, they robbed banks
He pointed to the charm on his neck
With his last bit of energy left, told me rock it with respect
I opened it, seen the God holdin his kids
Photogenic, tears just burst out my wig
Plus he dropped one, oh shit, here come his Old Earth
With no shoes on, screamin holdin her breasts with a gown on
She fell and then lightly touched his jaw, kissed him
Rubbed his hair, turned around the ambulance was there
Plus the blue coats, Officer Lough, took it as a joke
Weeks ago he strip-searched the God and gave him back his coke
Bitches yellin, Beenie Man swung on Helen
In the back of a cop car, dirty tarts are tellin
But suddenly a chill came through it was weird
Felt like my man, was cast out my heaven now we share
Laid on the stretcher, blood on his Wally's like ketchup
Deep like the full assassination with a sketch of it
It can't be, from Yohoo to Lee's
Second grade humped the teachers, about to leave
Finally this closed chapter, comes to an end
He was announced, pronounced dead, y'all, at twelve ten

Primo's Four Course Meal is the song, by Celph. Such a great song too haha, he fucking slays it. I absolutely love this line, makes me laugh no matter how many times I hear it...

These holy clips leave you holy split
And every ho I hit
Get baptized in holy water comin' out the hole in mah dick

One fo my favorite Celph verses is Playin' With Fire though...

Word on the streets is that I'm hellbound 'cause I bully Christians
But I stay up in the armory developin' pulley systems
For launchin' grenades strategically
On stage with heaters illegally, got the soundman shook on my vocal frequency
Back at the crib, it's bettah strap on the bib,
'Cause when I'm bustin' off it's drippin' off the tip of her chin
Chickens and hens
You know I keep 'em bendin' over for me
With my chef's hat stuffin' pultry on the upholstery
Celph Titled's known as a gangsta to some
I got the power of the Gods, I created the one
All these young cats, with glocks, tryin' to clear the floor?
I'm old school, when I'm pullin' out my fearless four
Hear the sound of the glock, bury your face
'Cause the mag that I pack needs a carrying case
I'm not from the Aryan race, but I'll still persecute you
Ride around in the trunk with a little hole to shoot through

And Ap tears it on that track, too, crazy-ass rhyme scheme earlier in the song...

I spark fire like electrical shocks
And ready the glocks
To clash with Connecticut cops
You want some Brad Pitt shit, so you better go watch
The movie Seven 'cause you'll find your wife's head in a box

I just realized I need to spend less of my life listening to music. It's unhealthy.

God Loves Ugly by Atmosphere

i wear my scars like the rings on a pimp
i live life like the captain of a sinking ship
the one thing that i can guarantee
i'm like a stepping razor, i suggest you stay fair with me
been payin dues for a decade plus,
before that i was just another face on the bus
tappin my foot, to the beat on the radio
dreamin 'bout the mic and the money and the ladies
oh mom, i promise im gonna be large
someday im gonna stop tryin to borrow your car
gonna go far, with charisma and skill
until they put my face on a million dollar bill
atmosphere, its just a ten letter word
discretion is the name of my cement-feathered bird
and if you didnt hear, fuck whatevers heard
i think you got the sickness i suggest you get it cured
caught up in the mix, of a bottle full of fix
im gonna hobble down the street 'til i reach knob creek
its not that i dont like you, i just dont wanna speak
you fuckin freak
now keep your days out my week
the world keeps a balance, through mathematics
defined by whatever youve added and subtracted
im pushin on the hammer, to trigger the brain
embrace how i live it, god loves ugly

chorus
god loves ugly...

once upon a time in minneapolis, yo
i damn near had to steal the show
i stepped on the stage, who is it?
my names slug ive come to kill a couple minutes
whats up with the way, that everybody gathers around each other
so they can steal each others sound
if its all about gettin down with the get down
how long i gotta wait for these fools to sit down?
appears more clear in its simplest form
nobody sees tears when youre sittin in a storm
abandoning the norm, and handling the harvest
measuring the worth by the depth of the hardships
i welcome all the hatred you can aim at my name
i held on to the sacred ways of how to play the game
when the soldiers started runnin short on rations
i began tappin the egg, to spark the hatchin
make it happen
and take this captain to the gallows
i keep steerin us into an area thats shallow
talkin to my shadow, he advised me not to worry
he said i should plant my tree and let it rise out of the fury
so give me some light, a little love and some liquid
im gonna creep through the night
and put a plug in the spicket
and when the water grows
and the dam starts to overflow
ill float atop the flood, holding on to my ugly

chorus

why scream, when you can lose yourself inside the wide-screen
let life be a bowl of melted ice cream
or be the deer thats caught in my high beams
im rollin with the lights on, scared stiff
reality is just too much to bear with
paranoid, walkin around careless
no wonder youre in love with your therapist
go to sleep my little time bomb

one of my favorites for sure

[Bert] I'm sick!
[Ernie] What's the matter Bert?
[Bert] I'm sick!
[Ernie] Oh yeah?
[Bert] I'm sick Ernie! Can't you tell that?
[Ernie] You're sick?
[Bert] I'm sick!
[Ernie] You're sick?
[Bert] I'm sick!
[Ernie] Then you caught it!
[Ernie] Boy you must know who it is whose sick!

[Benefit]
As my verse disperses the worst curses a person hurts worse
Than the first virgin's privacy purse burstin’
I walk around the underground as a powerful thunder sound
Wearing the low down profound lyrical wonder crown
Advanced listening wrestlin’ with pressure expressions
And steppin’ in as a special specimen fresher than freshman
Obvious over dosage coasted it over oceans
With explosive posts flyer than your promotional posters
Skillfully killing willfully drilling syllable spilling
Feeling really up settable biting is edible stealing
Walking around the planet, rocking the ground like granite
Cocking my sound cannon and stopping the sound famine
Deliberate inconsiderate etiquette, Benefit's belligerence
Spitting shit like laxative excrement
Dove in a frozen ocean fell low below boastin’
The one chosen who rose exposin’ the flow erosion

[Chorus - repeat 4X]
So nice that it's nasty, so bangin’ it's bustin’
So sweet that it's sick, so dope it's disgustin’

[Benefit]
I lead an expedition in vision and competition
In a prison when deliverin’ witherin’ rhyme litterin’
Givin’ and never endeavoring ever clever however
bringin’ it whether together or on solo feathers
Sicker than liquor and medicine burnin’ and blisterin’
Leave your lights flickering
Quicker than strobes you're trippin’ in
The high appointed, style anointed with ill delivery ointment
On point with this like jointed presidential appointments
Flashin’ full fashionable rational lyrical passion
Glow bashin’ skulls burnin trash flows and watch ash grow
Belittling with little men livin’ in oblivion
Try battling imaginin’ that they're hyper than Ritalin
Simply deranged brain exchanged pain for gain
Rearrange your frame to strange plain pattern with slain
Bigger badder and better than all of your gold and cheddar
When spreadin’ wing like medicine
Men with ancient tribal lettering

[Chorus]

[Ben] Sick, sick, so sick
[Bert] I'm sick, sick, sick!
[Ben] Sick, sick, so sick

Make Damn Sure -Taking Back Sunday

TBS always has sick lyrics.

You've got this new head filled up with smoke
I've got my veins all tangled close
To the jukebox bars you frequent
The safest place to hide
A long night spent with your most obvious weaknesses
You start shaking at the thought
You are everything I want
'Cause you are everything I'm not

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna break you down so badly
While I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way

My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit
In talks, it says, 'You, oh, you are so cool.'
Scissor-shaped across the bed
You are red, violent red
You hollow out my hungry eyes
You hollow out my hungry eyes

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

I'm gonna make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
I'll make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far...

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

I'm gonna make damn sure
I just wanna break you down so badly
I just wanna break you down so badly (damn sure)
In the worst way (worst way)

mad mad world by shaggy:

It’s a mad mad world that we’re living in
Gotta keep your heads up high, can’t be giving in
Don’t you let one day go by without praising the most High
‘Cause it’s the only way we ever will survive

It’s a mad mad world that we’re living in
(What’s wrong with us?)
Gotta keep your heads up high, can’t be giving in
Don’t you let one day go by without praising the most High
‘Cause it’s the only way we ever will survive

Rough life, nuff crime, youth them a do hard time
No guides, no sign, walking on a thin like
Sentenced, no trial, victim of a profile
No hope, more fight, wonder why we’re hostile

False prophet make profit, focused on them pocket
White collar false docket, door open, can’t lock it
Politics, polytricks, equal econometricks
(Where is the justice?)

Death toll rising, sex commercializing
Barely surviving, future jeopardizing
No compromising, hope paralyzing
Rules need revising, why is it surprising?

Got to heed the warning, see the storms are forming
Not the time for stalling, look around it’s so appauling

It's a mad mad world that we're living in
Gotta keep your heads up high, can't be giving in
Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High
'Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

It's a mad mad world that we're living in
(Mad, crazy you know)
Gotta keep your heads up high, can't be giving in
Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High
'Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

Nuclear warfare, satellites everywhere
Mothers on welfare, what about medicare?
Ethnic cleansing, freedom pending
Government spending, who are they defending?

Bankrolls on poles, anything to enroll
Spotlight's their goal, price paid their soul
Step back, retrack, notice where your life's at
(Where was it worth it?)

Got to heed the warning, see the storm that's forming
Not the time for stalling', look around it's so appauling'
Poor is the mentality that disregard humanity
Say no to this insanity, create a new reality

Although I like Taking Back Sunday (I even went to a concert, it was pretty good), I still think that those lyrics are nonsensical and trying too hard to be deep.  They sound decent when you hear them, but if you actually think about them, a lot of it barely pertains to the song, and repeats the same theme over and over.  I like lyrics that actually tell a story, or change somehow throughout the song, instead of so much repetition.  A lot of underground rappers such as Slug and Murs have their songs tell a story, and it helps illustrate a picture so much more than hearing lyrics like those.  I like "MakeDamnSure", it's a catchy song, I I just think the lyrics are now ones that I would consider my favorite.

the shoulder that i lean on was carved out of stone
but when i'm done freezin i wanna be alone
never want my hand cut off
never want a hacking cough
never need a cliff side push
never turned my brain to mush
always give me what I like
always take the best parts back
always recognize your fate
always just a moment late
left is where I always turn
left is how i'm forced to learn
left the route my walking takes
left alone with my mistakes
up against a person
up until now i never knew
up from hell the answer blew
up or down its up to you

drop me off the chinese wall
and peel my fingers off the rim
i come unglued while in mid air
and land to reform
limb by limb

and i am taken far away
lingering slowly melting away
and i am taken far away
tossed with a salad and baled with the hay
and i am taken far away
trampled by lambs pecked by the dove
