40 oz. To Freedom Lyrics

Self Titled

Garden Grove

We took this trip to garden grove. It smelt like lou-dog inside the van. oh yea this ain't no funky reggae party, $5 at the door. It gets so real sometimes, who wrote my rhyme? I've got the microwave got the vcr. I got the duece duece in the trunk of my car. oh yeah, If you only knew all the love that I found, It's hard to keep my soul on the ground. Your a fool don't fuck around with my dog. All that I can see I steal I fill up my garage. cuz in my mind, music from Jamaica all the love that I found, pull over there's a reason why my soul's unsoun It's you, it's that shit stuck under my shoe it's that smell inside the van it's my bed sheet covered with san sitting through a shitty band, getting dog shit on my hands, getting hassled by the man, waking up to an alarm, sticking needles in your arm picking up trash on the freeway. Feeling depressed every day,leaving without making a sound, pickin up my dog up at the pound,livin in a tweeker pad . Gettin yelled at by my Dad ,saying I'm happy when I'm not, finding roaches in the pot. Ohh, all these things I do.. They're waiting for you

What I Got

Early in the mornin' risin' to the street, Light me up that cigarette and I strap shoes on my feet. Got to find a reason, reason things went wrong. Got to find the reason why my money's all gone. I got a dalmation and I can still get high I can play the guitar like a mother fucking riot. Life is so love the one you got cause you might get run over or you might get shot never start no static I just get it off my chest never had to battle with no bulletproof vest. Take a small example, take a tip from me take all of your money and give it up to charity, lovin's what I got, It's within my reach and the sublime style is still straight from Long Beach It all comes back to you you're bound to get what you deserve. Try and test that, you're bound to get served. Love's what I got don't start a riot, You feel it when the dance gets hot Lovin' is what I got I said remember that lovin', is what I got, and remember that. Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that. Lovin' is what I got, I got I got. I don't cry when my dog runs away I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay. I don't get angry when my mom smokes pot, hits that bottle and goes back to the rock. Fuckin and fighting, it's all the same. To live with Louie dog's the only way to stay sane. Let the lovin' let the lovin' come back to me.

Wrong Way

Annie's 12 years old in two more she'll be a whore nobody ever told her it's the wrong way. Don't be afraid with the quickness you get laid for your family gets paid It's the wrong way. I gave her all that I had to give, I'm gonna make it hard to live. Big salty tears running down her china and it ruins up her make up I never wanted, a cigarette, pressed between het lips but I'm staring at her tits, It's the wrong way strong if I can but I am only a man, so I take her to the can it's the wrong way. The only family that she ever had is her 7 horny brothers and her drunk ass dad. He needed money so he put her on the street, everything was going fine until the day that she met me. Happy are you sad, wanna shoot your dad I'll do anything I can the wrong way. We talked all night and tried to make it right, Believe me shit was tight It's was the wrong way. Go run away if you don't wanna stay, Cause I ain't here to make ya' It's up to you what you really wanna do, Spend some time in America, dub-style she'll give you all that she got to give, but I'm gonna make it hard to live big salty tears rolling down to her chin and it smears up her makeup I never wanted So we ran away and I'm sorry when I say that straight to this very day It was the wrong way. She took a hike, don't matter if I like it or not because she only wants the wrong way. I gave her all that I had to give, but she still wouln't take it, oh no. Her two brown eyes only get larger still, and it still ruins her makeup I never wanted

Same in the end

Down in Mississippi where the sun beats down from the sky. They give it up, and they give it up, and they give it up, but they never ask why. Daddy was a rollin', rollin' stone, oh, he rolled away one day and he never came home. It ain't hard to understand, this ain't Hitler's master plan, what it takes to be a man. ooh, In my mind, and in my brain I roll it over like a steamin' frieght train, It ain't hard to ascertain. You only see what you want to believe when you light up in the back with those tricks up your sleeve. That don't mean I can't hang But the day that I die will be the day that I shut my mouth and put down my guitar. Sunday morning hold church down at the bar. Get down on your knees and start to pray, oh, Pray my itchy rash will go away, ow! Back up y'all, it ain't me, Kentucky Fried Chicken is all that I see, It's a hellified way to start your day. If I make you cry all night, Me and daddy are gonna have a fist fight, It ain't personal, it ain't me. I only am what you told me to be, I'm a backward ass hillbilly, I'm dick butkiss. You know I lie, I get mean, I'm a thief in the dark, I'm a ragin machine. I'm a triple rectified ass son of a bitch, Rec-tite on my ass and it makes me itch. I can see for miles and miles and miles, oh .. My broken heart makes me smile. In my mind, in my brain, I go back and go completely insane. It ain't personal, It ain't me. If I make you cry, I might, be your daddy at the end of the night. Take a load from my big gun. You only see what you want to believe, When you creep from the back I got tricks up my sleeve, 24/7 the devils best friend, Makes no difference it's all the same in the end.

April 29, 1992

I don't know if you can, but can you get an owner for Ons, that's ONS,Jr Market, the address is 1934 E. Aneheim, all the windows are busted out and it's like a free-for-all in here and uh the owner shouldat least come down here and see if he can secure his business, if he wants to... April 29th, 1992 there was a riot on the streets, tell me where were you? You were sittin' home watchin' your TV, while I was paticipating in some anarchy. First spot we hit it was my liqour store. I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford. With red lights flashin' time to retire, And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire. Next stop as the music shop, It only took one brick to make that window drop. Finally we got our own p.a. Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearing today? Hey! When we returned to the pad to unload everything, It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings. So once again we filled the van until it was full, since that day my livin' room's been more comfortable. Cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here, It's getting harder and harder and harder each and every year. Some kids went in a store with thier mother, I saw her when she came out she was gettin some pampers. They said it was for the black man, they said it was for the mexican, and not for the white man. But if you look at the streets it wasn't about Rodney King, It's bout this fucked up situation and these fucked up police. It's about coming up and staying on top and screamin' 187 on a mother fuckin' cop. It's not written on the paper it's on the wall. National guard??! Smoke from all around, bo! Let it burn, wanna let it burn, wanna let it burn, wanna wanna let it burn

Santeria

I don't practice santeria I aint got no crystal ball. I had a million dollars but I'd, I'd spend it all. If I could find that heina and that sancho that she's found, well I'd pop a cap in sancho and I'd slap her down. What I really wanna know, my baby, what I really want to say I can't define. Well it's love, that I need, oh , but my soul will have to, wait till I get back and find heina of my own. Daddy's gonna love one and all. I feel the break, feel the break, feel the break and I got to live it up, oh , yea huh, well I swear that I. What I really wanna know, baby, what I really want to say I can't define. that love make it go, my soul will have to... What I really wanna say, my baby, What I really wanna say is I've got mine. and I'll make it, Yes, I'm comin' up. Tell sanchito that if he knows what is good for him he best go run and hide. Daddy's got a new .45. and I won't think twice to stick that barrel straight down sancho's throat. Believe me when I say that I got somethin for his punk ass. What I really wanna know, my baby, what I really wanna say is there's just one, way back, and I'll make it, yea, but my soul will have to wait. yea, yea, yea

Seed

Janie always said I was a mess, I'm sorry bout that mess, I made her bleed. I'm planting my seed. Still I knew she could take it if I opened up the rhythm I knew it could make it, but I hope her parents love her, so. Feelin the acid on the brain, if I got that frame, I made her bleed, yeah she wants that lovin you see well if you live, you wanna give or get old, and if you never knew that we get old, you live it up you live it up, you get old, but if you got to know my place, And if you don't it smacks you in your face, but, I know her parents love her, and I hope her parents love her, I hope her parents love her so... Billyed back in 1983, what did you do for me? I made her bleed, well I'm lovin', I'm planting my seed, babe, I knew we could make it, but, I only knew that the bitch would break it, yea, I hope her parents love her so, my God look at me, If he had to go I know I'm barely lovin' my holy creed, You never knew that was what you need, Oh my god, honestly, believe it or not, its a disease. I, I hope her parents love her, I hope her parents love her so...

Pawn Shop

Down there at the pawn shop, It's a nifty place to shop What has been told about made of stone just remember that it's flesh and bone (and so on)

Paddle Out

I never thought that when I grew up I would be in a band, and travel all the best spots in the land, and I'm not here to brag or boast, I'm here to tell you about the spots that I love the most. natural bridges on a clean west swell, breaks over the reef like a bat out of hell. stockton Ave. gets hollow and mean and on a big day it works like a machine. outside stockton gets hot like a gloves swift st. john st. into mitchell's cove. big steamer ln. makes you wish you were a trout, when it's mackin' so hard only two dudes paddle out... a huge summertime south swell hits when i'm in my hometown, in a surfside bowl, is where i can be found or up and down the coast, checkin' out the spots that i love the most.
