I really love this Kanye verse from the lollipop remix he did with Wayne.

Lollipop, lollipop, breasts is just like Dolly Parton
She ride my spaceship 'til she hit the top
That hit the spot, 'til she ask how many
Li-il-li-il-licks do it take, 'til she get to shop
Don't worry why my wrist got so freeze
Tell a girl like Doritos that's not your {nacho} cheese
Tell her friends like Frito's I'm tryin' too lay
I can only have one and I ain't tryin' to wait
[rap, hip-hop and R&B lyrics found on beckerist.com]
This a song with Wayne so you know it's goin' melt
But you ain't finna murder me like everybody else
I'm a rap like I got some tight respect for myself
I don't do it for my health, man, I do it for the belt, man
I do it to the death, 'til the roof get melt
100 degrees drop the roof, so the coupe don't melt
Man I flow so cold, chicken soup won't help
We need 4 more ho's, we need oh oh oh OH!
You know what it is when we out of town
We ball in 2 seats, and you out of bounds
So come here baby girl
You're now ****in' with the best in the world
Lollipop (pop, pop, pop, pop)
The best in the world

GO GO GO

Lol Deathwish listens to Lil' Wayne now.

CunninLynguists - Things I Dream

Fumblin with a sweat on my fingers, something impetuous lingers
Become infected with feeling so I'm electing this evening
To end my life without reason 'cause I'm indicted for treason
Closing my eyes and I'm leaking, drag the knife til I'm bleeding
'Cause its light that I'm seeking, feels only right that I'm meeting
With Jesus seeking redemption but he don't need my repentance
For he who feels my intentions sees that my deepest depression
Is feeding me to these demons that lurk and feed on my essence
The pain is deep in my chest and I keep repeating my blessings
Ever since a meek adolescence that saw me beaten by freshmen
Parents repeatedly sentenced, heroin needles on dressers
They used to feed their infection, I can't repeat indiscretions
So I pause for reflection, long for honest affection
And getting lost in the music is only soothing for stretches
'Cause if you knew where my head is, when I'm doing these records
You'd never listen to my music again, I can't let you

immortal technique disintegrates mics when i spit
i cause more casualties than sunken slave ships
fulled to capacity, i bring tragedy to rap
without my man qaddafi
the government took nazi scientists from germany
to design nuclear rockets, and ways of observing me
cuz their pathetic attempts didnt work to murder me
when this country was concesed, bastards never heard of me
but now i hold the souls of slave masters eternally
bleeding internally, burgundy, during surgery verbally
cuz im a spirit to it, devils are incompatible
i been around since the planet was inhabitable
i spit in the ocean and created microscopic animals
which evolved into two species, the righteous and the cannibals
but until then, i had alien women suck me off
when god said let there be light, i turned it the **** off
and thats the reason earth is only 5 billion years old
i made the sunshine and permitted time to unfold
the surface was lava, but when i stepped down it became cold
**** what you been told
my spiritual form become a swarm of molecule sickness
manifested liquid trapped inside a mountainous region
until the skies started raining continuous seasons
immortal technique at long last reincarnated
undebatably reinstated to leave you decapitated
just sweet food but my crazy words make sense
i split every pound in your body into 6 pence
im sick of simple similes about the 6th sense
i`ll leave your body drenched in the blood from all your ancestors
you`ll never be in peace like the souls of child molesters
i`ll cut you and bless your festering wounds with alcohol
drown you in a clogged toilet in a public bathroom stall
i`ll rip you down and take a chunk of you home like the berlin wall
this is the final call for all rappers that wanna brawl
immortal technique the wrong mother****er to diss
cuz i allow god to let you mother****ers exist


im the strong hold on your neck that doesnt let you breathe
stronger than the fake image of god in which you believe
more dangerous than your ignorant ass could ever perceive
a european virus mutated in africa overseas
transported by mosquitos and fleas to where you live
so lock yourself in your house with your wife and your kids
you`re such a bitch, somebody probably made you out of a rib
my arrest record just scratches the surface of what i did
my bit locked me up and brought my life to an end
i was forgotten, abandoned by my bitches and friends
you dont want beef with people like me, so dont pretend
i`ll resurrect your aborted baby and kill it again
you get no props in hip hop like feminine men
im iller than any plague that god gave moses to send
you wanna make amends cuz im the reason that the earth shakes
burying your fam like central american earthquakes
immortal technique, harlem to canada
i`ll lyrically damage ya

I'd probably go with

Lost generation, fast paced nation
World population confront they frustration
The principles of true hip-hop have been forsaken
It's all contractual and about money makin
Pretend-to-be cats don't seem to know they limitation
Exact replication and false representation
You wanna be a man, then stand your own
To MC requires skills, I demand some shown

and

We have terrorists in the music industry
Yes terrorists trying to define what music be
We are modern medicine men - cure all ills with ill beats
But some people are making music sick
And stealing all the chi
You know who you are and yes judge not lest ye
Be judged I agree in front of my plasma screen but
While you’re making a concert of convicts who
Stumbled through the contest, I’m taking the
Concept of convex and putting it in a concave context
And if you were Rocksteady, Bebop and Shredder
I’d be Krang… doing that evil shit better

Every ten-year-old enemy soldier thinks falling bombs are shooting stars sometimes but she doesn't make wishes on them.

When she wishes, she wishes for less ways to wish for, more ways to work towards it

Ten year old enemy soldier

Our falling bombs are her shooting stars.

From IOU by Metric.

**** L Ron Hubbard and
**** all his clones.
**** all those gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes.


**** retro anything.
**** your tattoos.
**** all you junkies and
**** your short memory.



**** smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas.
**** these dysfunctional,
Insecure actresses.



From Aenima by Tool

Aesop Rock is a cool guy.

Quote from 6B Panorama

I was sitting on my fire escape and I saw...
sturdy bridges, decorated with dirty pigeons
a vagabond begging for three pennies and a princess
a junkie tourniquet surgeon urging the needle in
a batty senior citizen flashing that awful teethless grin
I saw a corner store merchant rest on a milk crate with a stog'
a pierced nose, a model with a stalker, cheap hooker, jay walkers
a table on a sidewalk with four old men slappin' dominos down
a city, a village, a neighborhood, a ghost town

commencement at the obedience academy is also a good song by him

Quote from Fusion

**** L Ron Hubbard and
**** all his clones.
**** all those gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes.


**** retro anything.
**** your tattoos.
**** all you junkies and
**** your short memory.



**** smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas.
**** these dysfunctional,
Insecure actresses.



From Aenima by Tool

Great goddammed song.

"Watch me flush it all away"



Here's one of my other favorites:

**** your god
your lord your christ
he did this
took all you had and
left you this way
still you pray
never stray
never taste of the fruit
never thought to question why

From Judith by A Perfect Circle.

Watch your step by the crowd of fanatics
While they kill in the name of applied mathematics
And you hate the system even though you invented it
Go kill your brothers and claim self defense of it
Picking up all the secrets and the tricks to being
One of the guys whom the shit never sticks to
Take your seats for the final calamity
Don't you look so serious, hell, what can the matter be?
Another day and the rot's getting faster
And all the machines started killing their master
It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame

From: David Ford - State of the union
The song is about how the society is slowly destroying everything and shit.

and I'll plead with a thousand voices
I am sane! I am sane!

From: Enter Shikari - Mothership.
I think it's because of the fact he's claiming to have been part of an abduction, yet the line itself seems to make sense in an ironic way.
He's pleading with voices, that could be in his head, thus making him somewhat insane, that he is sane.
Seems well written.

Tokio Hotel has some sweeeeet lyrics in some of their songs. Imma try to translate my favourite:

Everything's different than we planned
the pulse in our veins is way too weak
but somehow
the hearts keep beating us through the night

And, Schiller has some nice ones.

Quote from Dream of You

That is loneliness, so far
I lay my hand onto my heart
is this what life has got to give
is this the dream I had of you?

Quote from Forever

I'd die a thousand deaths
I'd give a thousand breaths
To be near you
I'd pay the ransom sum
Or lie to anyone
I'd do what is undone
To be near you

Wolfsheim is also pretty good with lyrics. Translated:

Quote from Kein Zurück (No way back)

Oh and if I could
just a single time
reverse the clockworks
Because so much of
what I know today
I'd rather have never seen

Sorry for the cheesy translations but this is really hard.

Its what you do, not what your going through
That counts, my love -



Minor Majority

Quote from Lose Yourself

No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this mothaf**kin roof off like 2 dogs caged
I was playin in the beginnin, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher
Best believe somebody's payin the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cause man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Makai Pfeiffer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Tryin to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter-totter caught up between being a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screamin on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothaf**kin option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go is my shot.
Feet fail me not this may be the only opportunity that I got

The only rapper I like.

Eminem = Tool
I'd say CYNE's "The Dance" was pretty deep .Doesn't really rhyme, but it still comes out so good when they say it. Here's a good verse from that

Surrounded by automitons
Watching life flicker like a movie screen who am i to ever judge
Living life to the fullest
Maybe it's all just illusion real truth in projectors
Will money make my life better?
**** cliche rags to riches real hurt brings hard stitches
Things never change son
so I'm gonna change how i live my life
shine like a full moon
People hear the shine as they cuss through the full view
Everybody wants to be a movie star
but is is possible
is it probable
to prove you exist is to have an observer
if nobody wants to hear you
do you change your tune to something they consider worthy
and if you do
are you still you
or out of tune fabricated to the point you're a synthesiser
**** the truth i want inner peace
because the truth is objective it depends on who you ask
so i'm gonna live by my inner code
and pray to god that i make it home

Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream
I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race, this world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait and all will be revealed

Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace, whose sounds caress my ear
But not a word I heard could I relate, the story was quite clear
Oh, oh.

Oh, I been flying... mama, there ain't no denyin'
I've been flying, ain't no denyin', no denyin'

All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land
Trying to find, trying to find where I've been.

Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace, like thoughts inside a dream
Heed the path that led me to that place, yellow desert stream
My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon, I will return again
Sure as the dust that floats high in June, when movin' through Kashmir.

Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea of years
With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear
Ohh.

When I'm on, when I'm on my way, yeah
When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah

Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when I'm down...
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well I'm down, so down
Ooh, my baby, oooh, my baby, let me take you there

Let me take you there. Let me take you there
