Sample: We thought he was the inner city poet He was this wondering spirit around the city Pruven Different visions Different ways to view things (oh boy) Doing drugs such & such Doing drugs at a christian college you keep it on the hush hush Emotional crutch Walking for adulthood is always enough Spirit tough Corrupt bunch of punks ruffed up Snatched in hand cuffs You slumped over I snatch your lunch Freedom is tough Freedom as a child Imagine freedom now with your own personal style Memories not vile Could be a baseball game or an amusement park 6 Flags Memories with light overcome the dark It's sad grow old don't lose your own spark Starting out Move with trained days Write my brain away Looking out a train window today Existence I take it in Confusion won't mask my grin Finding answers from within Polish gems My endzone I defend spiritual wins (Score) for people who held on To my every words I write on (strong) Chorus: I am Reaching the people when breaking down evil when speaking what's lethal (x4) Reach Pruven verse 2 For people who wished I listen Some of my wisdom was restricted & good luck was forbidden My ears were filled with trash School system made me laugh I've matured a hard head made a soar ass Some advice did last Said smoke dust you become it do hip-hop because you love it Soul touch for surviving Rope snapped on your emotional bungee diving I'm soul surviving, climbing Towards the heavens towards the top I will not stop Hip hop rocks the heart It's the pure sensei of the words Sensei I scribe every emotion I lay it on the nerves The veins the tissue the heart the physical Feel it Every issue of my life my whole being Feel Hip hop one of the reasons that I'm breathing Besides G.O.D. and the family Record write my life away it's the pure energy Chorus: I am Breaking down evil when reaching the people when speaking what's lethal (x4) Reach Reach Reach (feel) Pruven verse 3 You lazy Wasted a good beat with nothing unique to speak Concrete street meet broken teeth gums bleed Hold the truth to keep Hold the hand of the man I killed like Al Pacino in the movie, "Heat" Robert Deniro was beat we compete to breathe We compete to eat Whose combat succeeds? We write what we see He slept masterpieces were painted Made reality less jaded dreaming hate Dreaming from the sky scraping Think hard know what you saying Relate to all walks of life Different music rock mics Different venues at sight From a boy to a man always loved to write Battle axe subjects slice coliseum concepts Roaring lion tears flesh That's what it is and that's what he sees Outside looking in he will never flee Strong as the word .. "we" Family won't die Family tides Moloch the owl they worship ask why? Chastise lies reach for the sky touch minds A bankrupt man from a gambling debt Female soccer player sprains her neck A retired wrestler learns to fly a jet Reality what's next? Diversity teachings Enhance your concepts for life's conquest Chorus: I am Reaching the people when breaking down evil when speaking what's lethal (x4) Reach Sample: He's like a wise man a prophet How many records to do think he sold in America? In America 6

Stay clear from the table to make sure the record stable (x4) Sample: Listen quite deeply to the lyrics & one day by accident I found it What I thought was the end of the story Was actuall the beginning & the best part was still to come

Pruven VERSE 1 What you holding back for? Swords of Fate cut open up a demons face. Open flood gates. No more the lion sleeps. Open my teal book of poetry. Let it free better see Let me breathe conquer dreams. Relieve 7D mystery Weaponry seize history’s legacy Emcees cure disease teens with spiritual disease. Through fashion scenes dead your grief. Dead your scene lead these sheep Who speaks these scrolls of P.E.A.C.E.? Cyborgs won’t read My sword slash dreams I take I-84 smoke rides to ease minds. Thieves coming pain erupting. Open safe & goons robbing non stopping You balling gay Jason Collins.  Black smoke in your face you coughing. Indian marksman share drinks with the Afghan smart man. False prophets! In Electoral College. Brolic comet astonish. Star light target. Teach kids right over shine darkness The older I get the colder I spit More bolder & smarter humble & I stay God’s partner. Ball harder I start on any roster. Mystic Floods! Ride tight the road of life. Roll in a Rolls Royce tonight. The seed grow your might With the spiritual insight Spirit rich even if the pockets not tight 7 spears 7 tears. 7 years ago back then Did you think you’ll be here today with a grin? Boil men, Pots of hell hogs eat again. Have harmony. God & mediocrity love average folk. You joke stupid around serious quotes. Set sail your ruins just float. I choke you in a sea of life drown your hoe. Choke you in a sea of life drown you whole. HOOK: We all line up to triple sevens. It’s the will of Divine (repeat) Pruven VERSE 2 The scholar with a dollar Viking Valhalla do it proper fire starter Write harder work harder train darker. What you really do? Talking make no moves. Zimmerman screwed Trayvon & it’s true. Still doomed misused fools is all misled. Stomped till their dead. You stay quiet. Revolutionary riots. Why are you defiant? Why you rhyming? What a song really do? Promote glOOm? You come with the truth? The court evidence discarded the forensics. Know the right people, get away with it. No lie rich lawyers taking bribes. We stay high keep the spirit in mind. Keep the spirit in mind. Warzone rations. It’s a warzone rations! Men bleed proceed with ass kiss. Prayer deeds need to be happening. A sniper sees the weak in cabin. Shoots and sees and bleeds tragic. He deceives in extreme fashion. Shoots and sees the madness. Fall into blackness. Calling the savages. Taught all to brawl with God’s raw magic. Seek the Sabbath & speaking havoc. I beat the weak & can teach with speech tablets. Audio graphics! Paint the canvas. From my brain train with spiritual bliss Today’s canvas triple 777 atlas Compass of guidance with the substance. Love this, spiritual bliss, hard hits, & concrete spit. HOOK: We all line up to triple sevens. It’s the will of Divine (repeat)

We speak and talk free They say they love Alicia Keys But now they're hungry Hit up the local Wendy's So gradually Sizorhandz picks up speed Whoop Whoop Sirens the next thing we see Oh shit drink the liquor quicker Or maybe hide the trees Or maybe the trees we just need to eat The cops coming systems thumping We bugging Turn it down smiles turn to frowns Sizorhandz pulls over Smiles gone & that's when the fun really begins to start (damn) Chorus: After hour flurries After hour flurries Rhyme worthy rhyme dirty Rhyme in a hurry Shine Speak to these people so raw Life throw's a curve ball Speak to'em raw Pruven verse 3 Cop's smell the hydro Coming to the window "License & registration" Sizorhandz gives it to him with a look of frustration (fuck) The girls in the back seat Say they got drugs on them to see (what?) Benzodiazepines, percocets, roxi's, a lil bit of morphine, Wet, coke & green (damn) On the side they hustle it Cops coming quick so they gotta get rid of it, think quick Cops to the door Everyone out we drop our jaw Looking appauled What for? The cops find the drugs Now we all placed in handcuffs They bout to charge us The snouts have us out out in the cold For about 40 minutes Hands on the car do what your told His code he didn't call for back up Better yet he had us stuffed in handcuffs mouth shut The crooked cop says eyes full of dred "All 4 of yall are about to go to jail, unless you let your two girls give us head" (what?) Rock out The girls got to suck the cops off so we go free Awfully they do the deed & suck the cops off right at the scene They let us go free Now them girls want to hit up the tele? Naw drop'em off at the Wendy's Drop'em off at the Wendy's Those girls is tainted properly Chorus: After hour flurries After hour flurries Rhyme worthy rhyme dirty Rhyme in a hurry Shine Speak to these people so raw Life throw's a curve ball Speak to'em raw (x'2)

Critics of the city's stop and fisk policy have long noted nearly 90% of those targeted are African American or Latino. But a audio recording played during the trial for a lawsuit challenging the policy shows an official calling for police to stop, quote- "the right people". Deputy inspector Christopher McCormack is a commanding officer at the 40th precinct in the south Bronx. A precinct that has recorded a high number of stops. He was caught on recording by officer Pedro Serrano who asks him who the right people are, exactly. Christopher McCormack- "This is about stopping the right people, the right place, the right location Pedro Serrano- "Ok" CM- "Again take my neighborhood where we had the most problems" PS- "Right" CM- " And most problems we had were robbery, and grand larceny" PS- "And who are those people robbing?" CM- "The problem was what? Male blacks.I have no problem telling you this male blacks."

(Red Foxx)- A nigger tried to rob me in New York about a month ago. Now wasn't that dumb. A nigger gone stick up a black man. It is a difference. Pruven verse All you do is talk too much (yap, yap, yap, yap, yap ) You just talk that's all you do No action Talk, man keep on talking All you do is hate Stagnant in the first place East, west, north, south Remove the doubt from your mouth With the spouse The pliers in your mouth pull the teeth out Remove doubt spit blood plus shout Yeh you... You still talking too much Carmelo Anthony was in the "Sons Of Anarchy" How can that truly help your own reality? From fight scenes: check cashing lines You doing fine Find happiness deep inside your mind How important am I? Not much select few I trust Roll the dutch You know what his financial tides were cut I'm about to rush pull arms like Jax The Kombat is Mortal perhaps Adapt to back snaps The navy seal thought pattern won't collapse Forever Moor This is that infinity war For hours he got the Michael Myers powers You see they don't get the true jewels in public schools We need revaluation of the public education It's frustration so I find the meaning (meaning) Is your D.N.A. the same as the snake enter the Garden of Eden? And I speak the verses bleeding Chorus Red Foxx (sample) I'm black. People of color is black, white, yellow, brown and red. There's no Negro in the crayon box.

We don't even want to be connected to it. Why? Because we separate ourselves from it. So the first thing we need to do as, as a group. Is build, get educated, um become producers, invest in our community, if we have kids invest in our children let them know that education is imperative & give them the plan.

Pruven verse Remeber that Dave Chappelle "Black White Supremist" skit? Remeber that? Hell yeh Hell yeh Use to love her laugh Talks use to have Use to take a cab with her down to Lenox Ave. Hula hoop together Rain & sunny weather My time with her divine cherish for the better Met her at a show feels so long ago It's close to my soul & I couldn't let her go Half Australian half African The environment is Brooklyn Her glow so vibrant Pay attention to my spitting I saw her from the stage At that moment I felt so amazed In the crowd she working the camera At that moment I thought forever, I gots to have her (yeh) Don't laugh as I approach (huh) My words were serious with her from the first time I spoke We spoke free She enjoyed the show bought my CD's From Harlem I felt her energy In the film production She's about something Hip hop plus the arts Plus the girl was smart A vegetarian who had madd heart Roof top smoke sessions The girl was a blessing no question & I went to her crib I had to freestyle before I could hit She like the way I spit I like the way she just is Artistic beauty by far my star Paint pictures of Jimi Hendrix on her guitar Rock star of love Fell from above Her skin is like silk & smile like a Angel former beauty model One of the only chicks that I could chill with that was pretty that could spit Had recording studio in her apartment That was chill Spare time, she make art and record rhymes Great times we had With her I didn't budge we shared the blunts & from the back not the only position I did bust In her I did trust In her I open up But I guess not enough I'm imperfect With the girl I feel I'm done searching My queen is it worth it all this pain and hurting? (yeh) But she paid for everything then things changed I had paper but was hardly paid She would spoil me most days Trips to casinos, food, money and the hydro Money on the clothes my flaws begin to show I'm a asshole on the low But on the high, Me and her had some great times I remember the show in Brooklyn Who was there? Pharoahe Monch & Vast Aire Artifacts, Kenyattah Black, The Juggaknots rapped Jean Grae was there I felt no despair A good night with hip hop Me and my shorty doo wop I was imperfect I'm impatient I wanted her but obviously we did not make it I'm selfish plus I'm jaded Had too many girls on the side I didn't give her enough time immature with my mind She speaking the truth and I'm telling the lies (why?) See I was phony That's why I'm alone see (damn) Walk the wrath of the path Can't keep treating good girls bad (nope) (heal) It's a healing process It's a healing process (heal) Evolve as a person Healing process The healing process (heal) It's a healing process (heal) Evolve as a person Evolve as a person It's a healing process The healing process Evolve The healing process Remeber the first time and the last time I saw her. New Year's eve I left her for the side chick. The side chick left me. Treated the Queen so bad, & you was the first one I should've had. Who fucking cares? Move on. Grow.

(sample) I tell you that imagination creates reality and I ask you to imagine a state, any state, which would imply the fulfillment of your desire. It doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks, it's what you think that matters to you. Pruven verse Yeh, yeh, yeh, triple sevens This that bayonet tip point of speech Sharp stab hurt the weak Stomp the cheek Body leaks Soon peak Heart true soon speak words fume heat Facial burn turn lose skin soon take a seat Thrones of peace do deceive I see widow's grieve Covert operations enslave the free Meanwhile Rothschilds have more devastation Than nazi camp concentration "Super Jail" animantion L.S.D. sensation Violence is the pill for death's medication Lava frustration Burn You'll sell your new born to pay for college education My perception different equal eloquence I'm on some 2317 A.D. July, 7th message The futuristics relics I push you off the cliff of your perception's edges I'm a hybrid mixed with sinner and perfection Chorus Flesh of a deity Server spines of devils Righteous rhyme pedals push roads ride beyond your levels Sweat shop sound Halo on the ground Pick it up raw style beheaded soldier found Avarice verse This verbal overdose shake comatose minds away/ after cheese like monterey modern day marvin gaye// No definition be the description and clique/ But in this instance Av and Pruven improving on what you doing// the truth be told cadence cold asthe heart of a killer/ Pardon my arrogance but yall hella average we iller// Bust your cabbage with quicker thinking linking this literature/ Sinking saps who ran into a merciless mayhem minister// This planet rock I save like Will Smith trying to get back to Vivica/ By kicking that good slick talk, watch ya hate self destruct// Push off I'm gone lord lost in the rhythm/ Using forgotten tactics for spitting forbidden wisdom// Yo. I play the villain no problem I'm well acquainted/ With paining these penny ante pansies and world famous flamers// We bring insane heat like Otto Octavius/ Holding five 45s, two 9s, and a stun gun while on angel dust// Chorus Flesh of a deity Server spines of devils Righteous rhyme pedals push roads ride beyond your levels Sweat shop sound Halo on the ground Pick it up raw style beheaded soldier found Verse 3 Avarice & Pruven (Avarice)- Slang the forte focus impeccable Manufacture miracles with diabolical decibels Rappers synthetic like chemicals mixed by mr. Heisenberg These diverse minds diverge, stray away from the herd (Pruven)- Pray first, tears burst, stole her purse no fears emerge The curse snort a line and went to church Allegedly unattractive silver caskets, trip out classic He spiked the holy water with some acid (Avarice)- Paragraph contortionist, talent proportionate with the lack of endorsements though there's many less fortunate Cadence kevorkian shatter rappers like porcelain take caution Overload your hemoglobin's endorphins (Pruven)- So enormous with portions The storm hit so gorgeous The list goes on come all rip it till morn The catalog of concepts spit so strong The catalyst, the Moor, the Prince in the hall. Rip force. Chorus Flesh of a deity Server spines of devils Righteous rhyme pedals push roads ride beyond your levels Sweat shop sound Halo on the ground Pick it up raw style beheaded soldier found (sample) If you create a scene which implies a fulfillment of your desire and dwell in it, until you have a inner conviction that is real, what does it matter what another thinks?
