Lyrics
Oh my god almost blew my top
but it's not like this world is about to stop
I got a 16 gauge somewhere in my trunk
and I'm standin out here in the front (what)
Put down the guns and stop the violence
Listen evrybody it's the sound of silence
And once you start you can't fight the feeling
got everybody in here touchin the ceiling
Remember when the crew outnumbered the fans
Days when the fans outnumbered the man
Don't you understand Don't you understand
Gonna chop it down with the edge of my hand
15 MINUTES THEY BUILD YOU UP BUILD YOU UP
THEN YOU FALL X4
And my words are thought provoking
I unloading you must be smoking
Seems you're already forgetting
Intellectual assault and all similar weapons
So I spoke my mind and I said my piece
Please let me breathe cause I'm feeling the heat
I sat right back in my seat
Just for a minute to get up to speed
Just for a minute I get what I need
A whole lotta drinks and a whole lotta weed
Just for a mintue I get what I need
A whole lotta drinks and they're all guarenteed
15 MINUTES THEY BUILD YOU UP BUILD YOU UP
THEN YOU FALL X4
I'm a free thinker a casual drinker
A real Rebel Rouser a pain in the sphincter
I put words out that don't belong there
But I don't care throwin it out there
I suppose you could deal with the cosequences
Sayin you're a liberal but only in casual confrences
An I'm begining to get your head spinning
Cuase I continue just to get em in em
And this MC got som venom in him
A temper tantrum's not far from imminent
And you could be just like the president
Or you could be just as irrelivent
15 MINUTES THEY BUILD YOU UP BUILD YOU UP
THEN YOU FALL X4
