How Many Times

How many times,
must I awake to one mistake
that I made before.
And now I'm wonderin what happened
and why I'm on the floor.
It must have been a good night
I must have had a good time
Tonight will be a good night
Tonight we'll have a good time
Yeah we're drunk again
lets take one more down
We're not gonna stop
til we hit the ground
To hell with our resolutions
Its just an 80 proof solution
We're not gonna stop til we hit the ground
and we never hit the ground
And now were too far gone
to realize two bloodshot eyes
that I have lost control
And that's when I don't htink
and the shots I drank
are starting to take their toll.
It must have been a good night
I must have had a good time
Tonight will be a good night
Tonight we'll have a good time
Yeah we're drunk again
lets take one more down
We're not gonna stop
til we hit the ground
To hell with our resolutions
Its just an 80 proof solution
We're not gonna stop til we hit the ground
and we never hit the ground
So many days I wake up stuck
What did I say or do or fuck?
But its that time again
and i am going dull
Yeah we're drunk again
lets take one more down
We're not gonna stop
til we hit the ground
To hell with our resolutions
Its just an 80 proof solution
We're not gonna stop

Get What I Need
03:55

|

I'm standing tall so deep inside of you
time slows down when I make it through
I love your green walls yet I stand so dry
as I go on with ease to the other side
you can't get me to do anything else
when there's something heavy hittin deep from the south
like a zomie I will follow each drop
I'm not gonna stop until my arms fall off
I gotta get what I need
I wanna watch it flow over me
I want to sit deep right over the reef
and let it fall on me
I gotta get what I want
no its never enough
when it plays out like glass
and it wraps around fast
no I cant get enough
no I cant get enough
no I cant get enough
I gotta get what I need
you move quick
yet I ain't jumpin ship
I always want more
when you swallow me whole
when I'm under I wonder how long
I can swim to the deep
sittin here in solitude
so happy I could sink
there's a thing that I can't deny
when we get together my heart's in flight
you cover me up or you're shuttin me down
either way I know you're not messin around
I gotta get what I need
I wanna watch it flow over me
I want to sit deep right over the reef
and let it fall on me
I gotta get what I want
no its never enough
when it plays out like glass
and it wraps around fast
no I cant get enough
no I cant get enough
no I cant get enough
I gotta get what I need
you can't get me to do anything else
when there's somthing heavy hitting deep from the south
like a zombie I will follow each drop
I'm not gonna stop until my arms fall off
I gotta get what I need
I wanna watch it flow over me
I want to sit deep right over the reef
and let it fall on me
I gotta get what I want
no its never enough
when it plays out like glass
and it wraps around fast
no I cant get enough
no I cant get enough
no I cant get enough
I gotta get what I need
get what I need

Come Get High
04:26

|

Standin' by yourself, why don't you stand next to me?
Don't know what the effect can be, but why not take a chance?
I should've winked and a smile, and i think you'd understand,
But then you take me by the hand, I think i'm drunk enough to dance.
I don't know what I'm feelin,
But I know I can't deny,
My hand's up in the ceiling,
My heart's up in the sky.
So why don't you come with me.
And we can both get high.
Nothin' I' want you tonight...
We Don't need an excuse, come on let's get loose,
Come get high with me.
There's no wrong or right, we just need to take flight,
Come get high with me.
You know it feels good, when your dancin oh so close.
I think I'm diggin you the most,
So why not dance some more?
And maybe late in the night, but we're both on our way,
And maybe then we just don't care.
Cuz we're the last one's on the floor.
I don't know what your feelin,
But I know you can't deny,
Your head's up in the ceiling,
Your heart's up in the sky.
So why don't you come with me.
Baby and let's get high.
Nothin I want you tonight...
We Don't need an excuse, come on let's get loose,
Come get high with me.
There's no wrong or right, we just need to take flight,
Come get high with me.

Trying To Focus
03:40
|
|

I'm trying to focus
But i'm fallin' asleep
the baggage on my eyelids is too
heavy to keep from fallin'
Ramble on, on through the night
I've been driving
since a quarter to three
I've seen the sun come up so many times
this week it's scary
Rollin on until the day
When i get off that open road
There's a pull within my bones
Like a ship bound by a rope
It won't let go, it won't let go
It won't let go, It won't let go
I've been run over
by the hangover truck
A drive-by shooting shot down
By twelve ounce eighty proof slugs
Embedded, in my head
The ache in my head
I've been smokin', sticks from a ditch
That mid-west farmer's daughter
Is the one that's makin' me itch
In places, i'd never want an itch to be

Mr. Sun
03:27
|
|
||
I woke up this morning
And I asked the sun
I said you have watched this human race
And how far we've come
You shined on our fields
When we first learned to plant
Beat down on our shields
As we battled for land
Beat down on our backs
As we built cities to the sky
Now can you tell me Mr. Sun
Do you think we'll survive?
His voice was thunderous
As he replied
The heavens broke the soil shook
And fire filled the sky
He said that we're loosing a battle within
Spent all that money on that oil and war
And there's not much left to pay off your sins
So lay down your axes
And sheathe your bloody swords
For I can tell you my son
Its gonna take a lot more love to survive this world
Later that evening
I prayed to the earth
I said oh mamma are you sick
And can you tell me where it hurts
She said that she's choking
She can hardly breathe
She says she suffers more than she lets on
Just so we have a place for our feet
You ignorant bastards
What to do with nothing left?
For I can tell you my son
Its gonna take a lot more love to survive this world

Positive Mind
03:19
|
|
||
Sit back take a rest
take a breath from your gut not your chest
and realize that you're okay
feel the air in your lungs
slowing down the rapid thump of stress in your heart
tomorrow is a new day
look around at your room at the things that you consume
do you really care if it all just burned away; burned away
a positive mind, a positive mind
can rule all of mankind
its convenient to be blind when we're all a bit alike
and the hustle has you following the wrong signs
a positive mind, a positive mind
from the slums you can arise
feel your spirit deep inside move and shake
excited is the energy
to understand that life is grand
and exists larger than your hand
is the key to responsibility
so look back at your room what it is it telling you
is it really there to make you feel at ease; feel at ease
a positive mind, a positive mind
can rule all of mankind
its convenient to be blind when we're all a bit alike
and the hustle has you following the wrong signs
a positive mind, a positive mind
Positivity through responsibility
(start living by your own design)
Positivity through responsibility
(start living by your own design)
Positivity through responsibility
(start living by your own design)
Positivity through responsibility
(start living by your own design)
exhale and expel all the negativity within yourself
you own what you are worth and its been with you since birth so let it be
it don't matter what the others see
so burn up that messy room its meaning less and less
to survive with nothing left can make you truly free; truly free
a positive mind, a positive mind
can rule all of mankind
its convenient to be blind when we're all a bit alike
and the hustle has you following the wrong signs
a positive mind, a positive mind

Night Mission
04:32
|
|

The time has come for us to make a stand
We'll have to do the work and do it hand by hand
And I know it better be tonight
We all fall down if we don't do it right
Every corner in town can feel the wrath a coming
And every click that we make can start a fire
And I know that it sounds crude
We all fall down if they don't have a clue
I'm on a night mission tonight
Loaded weapon and a sign to follow
I'm on a night mission tonight
Marching down a one way road yeah
I'm on a night mission tonight
Loaded weapon and a sign to follow
I'm on a night mission tonight
Marching down a one way road yeah
One way road yeah yeah
I don't wanna see an empty hall again
I wanna make them bleed and watch them torture themselves
And I know that it sounds rude
This is a battle that must ensue
I'm on a night mission tonight
Loaded weapon and a sign to follow
I'm on a night mission tonight
Marching down a one way road yeah
I'm on a night mission tonight
Loaded weapon and a sign to follow
I'm on a night mission tonight
Marching down a one way road yeah
One way road yeah yeah
Our banners hang high
In the misty morning
Riding by
I don't really wanna know it woah
I don't really wanna know it woah
I'm on a night mission tonight
Loaded weapon and a sign to follow
I'm on a night mission tonight
Marching down a one way road yeah
I'm on a night mission tonight
Loaded weapon and a sign to follow
I'm on a night mission tonight
Marching down a one way road yeah
One way road yeah yeah

Corporate Cafeteria
01:05

Never mind about the world
We’re too distracted by the sweet, sweet swirl
Of chrome tipped chocolate chip
Skyscraper money crunch
The corporate cafeteria is serving lunch
I try and try to fast all day
The media serves such a hot, hot plate
Of fabricated lies
Celebrity teeny-bop punch
The corporate cafeteria is serving lunch
The corporate cafeteria is serving lunch
I try and try to fast all day
But the media serves such a hot, hot plate
Don’t have a reason to eat their lies
I know I have to fight it all my life
Under-cut the price and make me buy a bunch
The corporate cafeteria is serving lunch
The corporate cafeteria is serving lunch
The corporate cafeteria is serving lunch
Yummmmmmm...

She looked so pretty when she smiled Her tiled toenails hug the street
Oh and within her heart You hear every emotion as she dances to the beat
Sexy tattoos that wind around her body they cover up scars from long ago
But its still her heart that keeps everyone going
as she gets ready for the show
Dance Girl Dance Dance Girl Dance
Play a song and set them free
Dance Girl Dance Dance Girl Dance
Play a song and set them free
I made my life to serve her every purpose
its hard to stay in love as it comes and goes
The sweat drips off my brow as we tingle in our courtship
and she exclaims i love you so
Dance Girl Dance Dance Girl Dance
Play a song and set them free
Dance Girl Dance Dance Girl Dance
Play a song and set them free
Dance Girl Dance Dance Girl Dance
Play a song and set them free
Dance Girl Dance Dance Girl Dance
Play a song and set them free

The Expendables - No Higher Ground Lyrics
There ain't no higher ground
That we can run to
Don't you worry my house is safe
There ain't no higher ground
That we can run to
I've got a boat just in case
The water gets too high
Don't you start to cry
I will be by your side
Until we're safe
When the day turns into night
Sit by my fire light
I will keep you warm
Until the break of day
Until the break of day
There aint no higher ground
That we can run to
Don't you worry my house is safe
There aint no higher ground
That we can run to
The roof will keep us out of the rain
When the clouds start rolling in
And the world is getting dim
Lift your burdened chin
And look at me
No I cannot change the weather
So we'll get through it together
You and me baby is all we need

Brother

The Expendables - Brother Lyrics
Sitting in my truck
In the lot of restraint
I think I like the picture
But I do not like the paint
Every man seems rich in wealth or wealth in mind
I guess my window's comin'
This is just my space in time
I do not have misfortune
What I made, I made my own
I just want redemption for the things that I owe
I do not have misfortune
What I made, I made my own
I just want redemption for the things that I owe
It's hard to hear you brother
Sometimes I can't relate
And even when were happy
It feels that I'm too late
The Colors do not match
Perspective is all wrong
The frame is just plain ugly
And I feel like movin' on
There is so much hate, pourin' from your eyes
Can you find the strength to forgive for those times?
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will stand beside even though were not the same
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will always stand beside you even though were not the same
It's hard to hear you brother
Sometimes I can't relate
And even when were happy
It feels that I'm too late
It's hard to hear you brother
When you sing your broken songs
I'm stuck and feeling helpless
And its been way too long
(Solo)
There is so much hate, pourin' from your eyes
Can you find the strength to forgive for those times?
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will stand beside even though were not the same
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will always stand beside you even though were not the same
It's hard to hear you brother
Sometimes I can't relate
And even when were happy
It feels that I'm too late
It's hard to hear you brother
When you sing your broken songs
I'm stuck and feeling helpless
And its been way too long

The Expendables - Donkey Show Lyrics
At ten AM on the weeks end
The cattle come and dig in
To tread on everybody that gets in their way
A donkey show at an all time low
We watch them rot
Can they be saved?
Ignorance can't hide the pain
Drinking beer and talking shit
Showing off to bigger idiots
(Solo)
Each decade there's a brand new breed
Of tattoo toe-heads, junk-sick hopeless
Just like the others, they will never be free
A public prison that they binge in
Self-proclaimed kings of their castle
Protecting fake territories
They don't see
The result of their decay
Throwing life away
Glad it ain't me
Swinging fists then swinging hammers
Crying out for any answer

The Expendables - I Ain't Ready Lyrics
I ain't ready, I ain't ready
Don't cry
Don't make me feel like I'm the bad guy
I just don't think that it's the right time
So I lie awake in bed
Thinking about all those words you said to me
About life an love and I don't disagree
But in this life there are no guarantees
That things won't be unsteady
I ain't scared
But I ain't ready I ain't ready
You got me all in to my very last chip
But I ain't even seen my hand yet
I ain't ready I ain't ready
I know that your tears are fallen
But I don't wanna have to go all in
I ain't ready
To take the next step we have so much left
So much time so much things to do
Can't you see my point of view
I don't know how much I need to say to you
Every word makes things worse it's like your trying to move forward
But I'm headed in reverse and I just want
Things to stay steady.
I ain't scared.
You got me all in now
To my very last chip now
