Make Way
CHORUS
This is the new anthem, this is the end of time
A higher level you could never achieve
Just breathe and believe
Make way for the new grandmaster of rhyme
Make way it’s a brand new day
XYL in demand, had it planned this way
Make way, I’m about to make waves
Make graves, kick ass and take names
Ain’t the same game once I invade the mainframe
Re-wire the matrix, bring it back to basics now
Y’all are stunned, like thunderstruck
And I don’t need to tell you that your number’s up
Ain’t no stopping me son
Force you underground like the Apocalypse come
I’m ‘bout to rout your legion
The rap general here to claim your region
XYL, seeing is believing
Ain’t a man alive who could slay this demon
[CHORUS]
Take a sedative to kill the pain
Kill the drum track, bring it back again
And now a new king reign
X-Y-L, remember the name
So just close up shop
You’ll feel better knowing that you chose to stop
Cause right now, you on the razor’s edge
One wrong move and you pay for it
My God, I got you praying for redemption
This is brand new, too hot to mention and
Now we entering the fourth dimension
Open your third eye and defy convention
[CHORUS]
Make way, everybody make way
Got the music and the lyrics to make the crowd sway
Make way, y’all had best make way
Type of hit you hit stop, rewind and replay
[CHORUS]
Prolly Drunk
CHORUS
Hey, from the back to front
XYL got the beat to make your party jump
Yeah, plus I’m prolly drunk
And I brought another case in case you hardly drunk
So c'mon, we movin' back to front
XYL got the beat to make your body jump
Yeah, plus I’m prolly drunk
And I brought another case in case you hardly drunk
Let the booze flow freely, nice and easy
From the seedy bars to the penthouse suites we
Can’t stop ’till we all collapse
XYL hold the bottle spitting drunken raps
Now everybody tipsy
Carousing ‘till dawn like a pack of gypsies
Drunk on schnapps and whiskey
‘Till the car gets stopped then the cops’ll frisk me
Ain’t no limit in sight, give me a mic and a beat I’ma kill it tonight
Slur my words but you hearing me right
Spit fireballs, make the floor ignite
Incite the whole crowd with my devilish grin
Loud as heavy metal with my level at ten
And I’m a charlatan
Your best friend when you got liquor money to spend
[CHORUS]
I stay intoxicated for weeks at a time
Strap yourselves in, we on a crazy ride
Hard to focus like a lazy eye
Still, unleash my inner-muse with the booze inside
I got nine live and they far from done
I was baptized in a barrel of rum
Blood alcohol above the norm again
Like Jesus, alcohol make you born again
So let reality blur
Make sure all the drunkards in my gallery served
Make sure all the people know I have to be heard
Make sure I keep drinking ‘till my demons are purged
And now you feeling my words
Light the roof on fire, let the ceiling burn
And watch the whole club pass out
XYL at the bar be the last one out
[CHORUS]
Drunken artistry so masterful
No running your mouth while your glass is full
We going shot for shot
Gin and pot got you going into system shock
And now we crossed the line
Line up my drinks like three at a time
Scotch, vodka, beer and wine
Bourbon, absinthe and tequila with lime
The world is mine and all the booze in it
Stay up all night ‘till I’m losing it
And when the morning comes
I’m at the liquor store before it opens
We moving, so move your body
This is for the boozehounds, fiends and hotties
Know that I got your back
And if you buying me a drink, I’ma get you back
[CHORUS]
The Power of Words
(Ladies and gentlemen)
Welcome to my domain
XYL hit you with the best time and time again
And show the rest just how it’s done
Ain’t nobody can contest when the West has won
So pay attention
This is more than Westcoast, it’s a new dimension
My reign getting harder to question
I’ma raise all hell like Charlton Heston
The new face of rap
But with all due respect I gotta take it back
To those MC’s who unleashed me
Run DMC, Public Enemy and the Beasties
Cause too many cats forgetting the old
Rapping fables while the record labels swallow they soul
I swallow ‘em whole, bitch step your game up
XYL in effect soon the name be famous
CHORUS
This is the power of words
The power of nouns, the power of verbs
Let it move you, wherever you at
I’m here to take the top spot and never look back
This is the power of words
The power of nouns, the power of verbs
Let it move you, wherever you at
I’m here to snatch the crown, are you ready for that?
Patience, I’ma work this raquet
Take over your body like some voodoo magic
Just give in to the pressure
The perfect drug flow through every bar and measure
And now you got your fix
And y’all stop in your tracks when I drop this mix
XYL get it popping quick
Warp your world and then watch y’all get lost in it
From your feet to your eardrums
You enamored with my rhymes, my beats and my appearance
It’s sheer skill and persistence
I got MCs tripping cause I’m killing their business
And this is poetry of the highest order
Words to electrify and to shape tomorrow
Power otherworldly
Earth buried, my verse make your eyes go blurry
[CHORUS]
Way of the Samurai
I pledge my heart to the Samurai spirit
Life I embrace and death I don’t fear it
I swear allegiance to my lord
Because my body and my mind are of one accord
With the way, I might die here today
Midst enemies who’ve come to take my life away
But in death I find strength as I relinquish my soul
For though my body is lifeless, my being is whole
Cause I fought bravely, no man was there to save me
And I never let the shackles of injustice enslave me
I advanced to the last, resolved to die
And this is the path that I chose, the way of the Samurai
CHORUS
The Way of the Samurai
Patience and conviction
Death, my philosophy, creed and religion
The Way of the Samurai
Forevermore
Studying art, poetry and the way of the sword
The Way of the Samurai
I live each day as if it were my last
And gain inspiration from those warriors past
Who showed undying dedication to their clan
And taught that mountains can be moved with the will of one man
I spend each waking moment in pursuit of improvement
And even in my sleep, I spot enemy movement
No though in mind but victory
Another page written in the clan’s history
With courage and valour, I step onto the field
My opponents will fall beneath the blade that I wield
The gods will kneel when I unleash my battle cry
My fate lies simply in death, the way of the Samurai
[CHORUS]
Free of greed, the betterment of self is my creed
Ready to bleed for my lord if that’s what is decreed
Challenge the heavens themselves to come strike me down
And I know that my sword, it won’t fail me now
I’m battle ready, where most men falter I stand steady
Train daily and stay calm when my foes assail me
But I keep my weapon sheathed if there’s no present threat
Marching onward through this life with no regrets
Now the time for war has come and I must heed the call
So if I should die tomorrow, show no sorrow at all
Because the loyalty I proved when I was alive
Remains steadfast in death, the way of the Samurai
[CHORUS]
Lionheart
On the attack with these raps that shake minds
So step back as I scrap for face time
Destiny, on track to make mine
Breaking these suckas with a massive bass line
Oh no, you couldn’t make the cut
It’s XYL today here to break you up
Shattered mind and horrendous luck
I step onto the scene and pretenders duck
Apocalypse now, that’s for certain
The weight of my words, an incredible burden
Class time, so now you learning
Make you run away ‘till your quads are burning
Make you scream ‘till your lungs is hurting
Dissect you quick like a high-strung surgeon
Don’t want to find me in the shadows lurking
Merciless as I pull the final curtain
Our of control and spastic
You never know, yo I might do something drastic
Always bounce back ‘cause my flow in elastic
Always trounce cats with the force of an axe kick
So ask God why your time has come
I leave no evidence when the crime is done
It’s all over but the crying, son
You just another victim when the lions come
CHORUS
These words and these beats are a violent art
The bold expression of a lionheart
Limb by limb, I’ma tear you apart
Spin by spin, here to make our mark
These words and these beats are a dying art
The bold expression of a lionheart
Limb by limb, I’ma tear you apart
Spin by spin, here to make our mark
I’m going to bide my time ‘cause I’m a nine-to-fiver
Blue collar with a true desire
Plus resourceful like my name Macguyver
Y’all out of the frying pan and into the fire
‘Cause building raps is my pastime
And I be killing acts with a lyrical landmine
The right time to rock beats and write rhymes
Recite psalms, warp time and light bombs
Explode with righteous anger
Oppose my villainy and I might just hang ya
My flow ability make you move so stand up
Strive for quality to surpass the standard
Hey, I’m gonna force your hands up
You just a pop act, I’ma break your band up
Rap overlord and commander
Invading your brain like malignant cancer
Back-to-back hits like you smoking with Cheech
Set to poison the mainstream from underneath
Yeah, with a new gospel to preach
Covert the masses, smash in your belief
Won’t turn my cheek, won’t ignore the facts
XYL lay it down like a maniac
MCs wanna die young, I’ll arrange for that
Just put the mic in my hands and watch your reign collapse
[CHORUS]
A Different Place, a Different Time
So much dejection on this planet earth
Seems society rates our worth at the moment of birth
Bubbles burst, people giving up on existence
But the throes of depression is the death of persistence
Seen too many people drinking to escape their life
Seen these people on the streets sell their souls for a crack pipe
It’s a black night, I feel the darkness surround me
What these cats’ll do for a dosage astounds me
Seems hopeless, there’s got to be a better way of living
Wash our hands of blood but can our sins be forgiven
Can we raise our children with more knowledge and more love
And have the common sense to rise up out of the mud
With minds pure and unburdened, no end to our learning
Stay determined, educate to keep the world turning
A new era where we all walk together
Through the storm so new hope can be born and stay strong forever
Lives touched without the lies of religion
An end to the killing, this is my vision
But there’s an evil deep in the heart of man
So when it all falls apart we’ve got to start again
One look at the money, one taste of greed
Our society is being run by crooks and thieves
Can we pick ourselves up, can we carry on
And move forward as one before our chance is gone
I don’t know, maybe to late to save us
Cause the almighty dollar is the god that made us
Energy going in the wrong direction
No solution is mentioned as nature’s bounty lessens
Am I stressing over something that I can’t control?
Why do people believe all the garbage that they’re told
Media is talking shit, somebody take me away
Hoping humanity will come to see the light of day
CHORUS
A different place, a different time
Where our vision is clear and we all walk together as one
A different place, a different time
Tell me (tell me) where did we go wrong?
A different place, a different time
Where no judgment is passed and we all stand together as one
A different place, a different time
Tell me (tell me) where did we go wrong?
If we could instil some level-headedness, combat the selfish elements
Become a single unit to act towards our benefit
See through the smog with our eyes wide open
Morale unbroken, got to stay outspoken
We got unfit parents raising kids to be criminals
An unfit system set to squash the individual
It’s residual and so the cycle continues
Till the whole fuckin world falls apart from misuse
Now I ain’t trying to preach but I got my concerns
Cause money burns causing people to forget what they’ve learned
It never ends, sometimes I find I loose my sight
Nowadays it’s hard to separate wrong from right
But I’m going to try to struggle on trough the murk
And keep my smirk and shed my sorrow through my work
Keep moving cause I feel hounds at my heels
Trying to fight my way out but the exit’s concealed
I feel the whole human race is bound for total destruction
A downward spiral made of hate and corruption
The love for fellow man lost along the way
Leaving minds to marinate in a state of decay
Every day it seems that those is power get more reckless
Want to find someplace somewhere that’s free of all this excess
Living blind ain’t a way to live at all
It’s the last call, got to break on through these walls
(Cause it’s the only way)
[CHORUS]
Know the Name
XYL enter the mic monster
The chosen one, the ninth wonder
Priest of the beat
Unleash on your ass like a heartless beast
A thirst for flesh
A curse on your name much worse then death
A hungry lion with his eye on the prize
A muthafuckin wolf in a sheep’s disguise
Lyrically I dismantle foes
Invade the corner of you mind where the anger grows
Dominate and handle flows
Other rappers hear my voice and they cancel shows
CHORUS:
They don’t know the name
Bobbing their Brains like
They don’t know the name
We gaining the game like
Now they know the name
Finding the fame like
Now they know the name
These haters can hate cause
They don’t know the name
Bobbing their Brains like
They don’t know the name
We gaining the game like
Now they know the name
Taking the fakes
Faking the fate
Making them wait
We escaped
So now they know our name
XYL:
I came here to devastate
Hold the beat down and regulate
Keep cool and concentrate
Stay low and infiltrate
Complete the mission
Execute the gameplan with severe precision
And y'all fear the rhythm
The bell tolls for thee and the clock is ticking
How you wanna grasp for fame?
It's a damn shame y'all cats rap the same
XYL collapse your brain
Pound it into your skull till you grasp the name
[CHORUS]
孤注一掷 (Against All Odds)
CHORUS
我知道你活的很累
有时候我只想把自己灌醉
不管你的选择是错是对
跟着我的节拍 Don’t be afraid
我曾经把它想的太美
生活如此乏味如此颓废
不管你有多伤悲
跟着我的节拍 There’s gotta be a way
When the world about to collapse
When the last word is heard and flips the map
I’ll continue to spit these raps
Pound the bass drum, snare and hit these hats
Through hard times and pain
When the stars black out, I shall remain
And although everything around me wanes
I’ma keep moving, maintain my reign
I got a soul of steel and an iron will
No way to stop me now just fire at will
Walk through fire and still
Hold my focus with desire and skill
Carry out and complete the task
Learn from mistakes, can’t change the past
This is here and now, it shall come to pass
I’ma move from the bottom to the top of my class
[CHORUS]
There’s only one chance, one life to shine
I get stressed cause I feel like I’m fighting time
But it’s all good, I summon up my soldier mind
Determination to the end, I’ma hold the line
And I’m a force unstoppable
Surpass expectations and tear through obstacles
Cool, calm and logical
Keep speaking to the world till my voice is audible
A one-man resistance
With die hard convictions
Ready to brawl and go the distance
Stay steady, stand tall, demonstrate persistence
This is what I was made to be
Find healing through my work when life throws pain at me
Bring it on, not a single word you say to me
Could ever break my spirit or weaken my bravery
[CHORUS]
每一个字句在我耳边徘徊
别管他的谁的是是非非
You gotta keep on keep on movin’
We hold our fate in our own hands
No use crying over failures or blown plans
Just move forward and stick with the program
Fix what’s broken and keep on hoping
[CHORUS]
