"4 Elements" (2000)




Jump To Jive lyrics - Chronic Future

Makin' 'em move from jump to jive
Nothing beats the feeling of feeling it live
We rockin' loud ever since '95
But check it out y'all now we gonna dive
Into the millennium for a force of completion
Like helium yeah we got the power to heal you son
Dealing out fun just like crack
Yo we ain't never lacking substance

[Chorus:]
Everybody make a move
Move your body to the groove
Making them jump to jive
Nothing beats the feeling of feeling...

Possessed by the spirit of the drums
Pressed emotionally by the labels' thumbs
Unit of force with combined consciousness
Doing it like this but now time to address
Music with the lyrical combination
Hesitation is to think trust your instinct
Life is multiple choice with multiple voices
So choose your moment's chain link

[Chorus]

Electroshocking keeps me rocking all night

...All night long is the way that I flip this verse
When I freestyle yo it's never rehearsed
To emphasize a point I might curse
With energy soon I will burst
Don't lose the groove and don't lose the vibe
I have just been phunktefied
I'll keep it rolling and I'll keep it rocking
Without delaying or without stopping

[Chorus]

? Up lyrics - Chronic Future

Intelligence tested stupidity manifested
I wish I could rest in this world of arrested liars
I'll set the fires free that burned
Inside of me uncontrollably

Being me doing things that I am
Why I gotta pay a fee for being me Uncle Sam
You are the hat I am the cat
You ingulp me because I'm just another stat

[Chorus:]
What up with your front so what
What up what up what up what up
You grow up pulling stunts no luck
What up what up what up what up

I scream out to the world in distress
I confess I've been at rest
At some situations which left me contemplating
And left me hating my reaction
To the action Satisfaction
Guaranteed and obtained after the
Decision to go forth has been made
I slayed all the choices from the start
I found the only voice is in my heart

[Chorus]

I change phase and I make you say what
I change phase and I make you say ho

To chart amazing and it's possible
Two months later the label
Looks at you as tossable
Its cost is full, of the price you pay to make it
They shook it and they shake it
Just to find that they have faked it
For what?! To see how far that they could go
This capitalistic fame is not gain
When you can't flow
So go row your boat gently down the
stream of Society
Why do you lie to me and
Why do you trick yourself
To find the knowledge on the used shelf
It's selfish and on the dish left is only parsley
There's no sign on knowledge's door
Saying please use sparingly
It's scarring me, but I found the answer
It's POSITIVITY. So I ask you

[Chorus]

The Majik lyrics - Chronic Future

Here I come rock steady
Kickin' a little medley about these times
With these rhymes
That penetrate the system from within
Is where you gotta reach inside the mind
Something so deep so true
That money can't buy you
Knowledge
What a complex thought to have a simple mind
A simple life so unwind
Let the creativity flow
Let the majik take control

[Chorus:]
Let the majik take over
Time is beyond control
It's so complex to
Be a simple soul

What we gonna do
About these times that we're in
So much to do and nowhere to begin
The search for the truth
Never ending let's quit these foolish games
And stop pretending to live
The perfect life, the perfect life
The American life
This search is not about America
And it's not about the Earth
It's about the universe

[Chorus]

Be a simple soul and give up control

The time is now to solidify out actions
Actions will be bringing positive reactions
That'll change the minds of the skeptics
Who'd like to see the world living the American
Dream

[Chorus]

4 Elements lyrics - Chronic Future

A microphone has an aura of sounds around it
When the lips make contact facts of fiction surround it
Unbounded noises founded, phrases mounted
But I get grounded.
Allow it and it will flow through the screen
Soft spoken or a scream will
stream through the means of time
That will amplify the vibe which I thrive for
Mental doors or windows open or close
Depending on which moments I chose

Guitars bass
Check your tone
Yo where's Mike B
I'm on the microphone
And Barry C.
He rocks hard like stone
The 4 elements Tokyo to Rome

Flows occur blank pages turn into rows of words
Or rows of phases in a particular matrix
The basis for this is instruments
with a microphone
Recycle tone through the cords
to clone the not shown
But heard so observe the superb yet absurd
Got no reason for concern

Guitars bass
Check your tone
Yo where's Mike B
I'm on the microphone
And Barry C.
He rocks hard like stone
The 4 elements Tokyo to Rome

[Chorus:]
When I'm feeling this was
I just must play
I release me through the urgency
Our consciousness is collective
This force we've made
Will always remain

Music completes a certain part of me
But there's not enough words to express me fully
We've been pushing on the cord to the outlet
Of the electrical socket
Music transforms form into thorn
That's poking the old prick looking at kiddie porn
I scorn not born locked to mock
Not the flock so us four chose to rock

Come Correct lyrics - Chronic Future

Oooooohhhhh it's exciting never
Biting but busy reciting
For the next concert enlightening
The writing that's occurring
Burring because it's 360 degrees
Below the hypotenuse
I called a truce but now I'm living
It no more getting lit for a little bit
There seems to be a void but
Everything resides inside of it
All my thoughts travel father than space ships
Longer than the plane trip

SO you know we'll go down
If we don't take a look around

Disappearing/reappearing humans fearing
The light at the end of the tunnel's
In the rearview mirror and
Some of my peers are stuck up at the tollbooth
They're agitated with life like it's a loose tooth
Ruthless behavior never did save you
In a sticky situation
Now something else is racing other than my heart
I guess I'll pull another item right out of the cart
So let me stop like this

We're gonna go down
If we don't take a look around

We're the Chronic Future and
We're coming correct son
Helping fill you life with daily illusion
We're both livin' in this institution
With no introduction you think I'm pollution

You debated over the topics you can't
Top this that's why you should stop this
Given the current jurisdiction laughter's
In the pocket
Of the beholder with the friction
Comes fiction that's older
Than the boulder weighing down
The habits on your shoulder
But it's old now that's true fact
The new news to you is that
You lose nothing something coming up
And you're giving it slack
But that's wack but tha's that
And that's what oyu chose
You got too short of a fuse
So you lose and go down

[Chorus]

Do watcha say everyday
And even though I portray
Who I am's not good enough for you
Startin' to make us stay like glue
I'm coming in back with the track
Stepping it up we on attack
Never do lack what you need but you
Grab with you greed
So you know we will proceed

To go down
If we don't take a look around

[Chorus]

Run For Shelter lyrics - Chronic Future

You better run you better hide
When forces collide inside my mind
Atoms divide and sever all ties
From the Universe and mankind
Spy satellites, secret agent men
The power of the force no one can contend
Infiltration
Reincarnation of the same old situation
Evil temptation evolution vs. creation
Brainwashing synonymous with education

You better run for shelter
Everything is helter skelter
Better run for shelter
Butter run for shelter baby

I see the thunderstorms up ahead
Don't know it but we're already dead
What was meant to be heard never was said
Since the beginning of time been misled
The cold war trauma tics below the belt tactics
The metholodical and the systematic
Reduction of the construction
Of weapons of mass destruction
Only servin' one function

Better run for shelter
Everything is helter skelter
Better run for shelter
Better run for shelter baby
And these dreams are what keep
Are what keep us from being free
Everything is helter skelter
Everything is helter skelter
Everything is helter skelter
So you better run for shelter

[Chorus]

I see the thunderstorms up ahead
Don't know it but we're already dead
What was meant to be heard never was said
Since the beginning of time been misled
Signs of the times eyes on money signs
Universal truths defied human rights being denied
Science not applied for mankind
Only for the advancement on the frontline
Spy satellites access damage done
No longer do we need a man to pull
The trigger of a gun
For now all it takes is a push of a button ten thousand miles away

[Chorus]

Everything is helter skelter
Everything is helter skelter
Everything is helter skelter
So you better run for shelter
Everything is helter skelter
Everything is helter skelter
Everything is helter skelter
You better run for shelter baby

Feel It Everyday lyrics - Chronic Future

I'm in this body - A specimen of unknown
I'm testing limits and the limits get way blown
Out of proportion - eyes ears and nose
Touch then taste but I'm faced with those
Certain uncertainties
Like where's my sixth sense
And why all of a sudden am I not free
I seem to be reentering a concentric section of another dimension
I was just in the womb of a life form
Saw the white light then I was born
Being scorned for what I think is right
By the fake prophesies of fright

[Chorus:]
I feel it everyday - Sometimes I say
Things have got to change
But they just maintain

I'm awaiting coordination on this
Gravitational pull
Never full of information 'cause I ponder and mull
Excess amounts of data and B.S.
Which do I choose to listen to or stress
I guess the true test is to tune deaf
To the rest of the mess that views you as less
But is it the best path for all
The fact that their math will fall
Individu-all
I was just in the womb of a life form
Saw the white light then I was born
Being scorned from what I think is right
By the fake prophesies of fright

[Chorus:]
I feel it everyday - Sometimes I say
Things have got to change
But they just maintain
On the other side - Is this really me
Or the speaking of my creativity

Why do we forget
Our lives of the past
Open up memory the valve's too vast
To grasp the knowing of another planet
Damn it don't tell me to can it
I transmit predictions I've made
Quote unquote "normal" has to fade
'Cause the habits of day to day
Have stained my innocent baby brain
And you call me vain

It all goes my way
Whichever way I create
I guess I make my own fate
It all goes my way

[Chorus]

Live Again lyrics - Chronic Future

Time to write this album
Chronic Future 2000
Time's no obstacle and we just arouse
All the minds that seem to be in tune
Ranting like a platoon under the blue moon
Yo, keep a low admission
Give no intermission
Too busy rocking the crowd yo
We're on a mission
Never dissin' so listen
I spark the lighter which soon sparks the high to
Kick in

[Chorus:]
One simple thought
Inside my head
I wish I could remember
So that I could forget
They close their eyes
To what's in front of them
They lose their lives
Only to live again

Picking out and unpacking
Words from my lyrical suitcase
For the beat race like arteries laced
With base form this song
Vibrate to vibration that you can feel
In your heart and soul
Pissed off 'cause they ain't got no control anymore
Society as a whole has lost we can't respect
The past experience
The essence of intellect

Chorus: I feel you getting closer in my mind
You seem to have the one thing I'm trying to find
Enchanted by the passing of the days
There's a reason why we all live again

I got 15 minutes to qualify so I'm gonna defy
All the laws of gravitational skills
Built out through societies
Proprieties are the last that it sees
Giving it what it needs it feeds
Yet proceeds with feasible strength
More than reasonable at length
I think at least so I feast on the molecules around
Knowing the sound of lsot but then I was found
Grounded to the dirt directly after death
The spirit never dies so my body's at rest at sleep
It's the truth CWG trilogy's my proof
Another moment's gone ... POOF

[Chorus]

Impossible To Win lyrics - Chronic Future

You're not justified
To say those things
That you say
You're not organized
In the games
You play

[Chorus:]
Start thinking about the future
Stop thinking about yourself
We are the ones to blame
But you shift it on someone else
These f**ked up situations
I'm always in
Making things complex and
Impossible to win

Trying to figure out
Problems I've already solved
Don't want anything
Don't want to be involved

[Chorus]

Ways To Sell You Out lyrics - Chronic Future

They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about ways to buy you

They got the dollar signs in their eyes
They got their designer fashion disguise
They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about ways to sell you out
About ways to sell you out

They got their hotsie tootsie hoochie mammas
They got their supa-posse entourage
They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about ways to sell you out
About ways to sell you out
About ways to sell you

So many people
Keep trying to sell you out
So many people
Keep trying to sell me out
So many people
Keep selling themselves out
So many people
Trying to sell us out

They wear sunglasses to hide what's
Behind their eyes
They are the signs of the times
Nineteen-hundred ninety-nine
They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about
They keep on think' about ways to sell you out

It's a matter of economics
Supply and demand go hand in hand
Like the Future and Chronic
Let's step back and analyze this topic with logic
The way I see it, we got many things to change
Therefore we must rearrange the concepts
Of human perception in this modern age
And turn the page that will lead us
To the next chapter
Faster and faster we will progress
So we can make the grade on the test
And succeed in this quest of ways to sell you out

The Great Wall lyrics - Chronic Future

Forces of imperialism are at hand
Too much resistance to take a stand
One million dead, how many more?
What does it take to not be ignored?
At the forefront of the freedom fight
An electric cattle prod with a stinging bite
Inmates raped, for their blood
Which comes next, storms or the floods?
Persecuted because of the Mantras
Temples burnt down by the Contras
No where to run, no where to hide
It's hard to tell who's on your side

Back in '87 two raised the flag
Chinamen come in with the body bags
Chants of independence became clear
It ain't what Mao wanted to hear
So the red flag smothers all
Waiting just waiting for the last to fall
For fear of the domino theory,
Not in our best interest
Favored trade treaty promotes the incest

So tear down all these walls,
Before they kill us all
Tear down all these walls,
Liberty and justice for all
Burn down all your flags,
In turn great walls will fall
And as society calls liberty and justice for all

It ain't no joke
Police cover up criticism with pistol smoke
Kids made to shoot their parents and
Their preachers
Who cares about the death of another teacher?
Ancient scrolls burned more than
Twelve hundred years old
Stolen possession of temples
Auctioned off and sold
China puts on a mask to look humane
Underneath the mask one hell of a lot of pain

Tear down these walls, before they kill us all
Tear down these walls!

Soul Anthem lyrics - Chronic Future

The future of our generation to come
Is coming to see what our ancestors have done
So have we decided what we're gonna do?
With the panet, we're going to inherit
Are we gonna spare it and repair it
And reconstruct that aqueduct that harmony
Be flowing through the past present and the future
Generations
Only to be disrupted by those not in
Tune with the sound
Comin' up from within the mind, body and soul
And so they try to synchronize out minds
To their sense of time
And disrupt the path our society goes
I will do my best not to synchronize my time
To their sense of mind

[Chorus:]
I won't synchronize
To their sense of mind
I won't synchronize
Any of my time

The future of our generation to come
Is coming to see what our ancestors have done
So are we gonna conduct ourselves
In a civilized manner
Or are we gonna continue to separate intimidate
Only to see the human race disintegrate
Haven't we had enough of the politics
Haven't we had enough of the antics
This twist on humanity's tied tight
Yo the light that leads us is bright
Not a racial issue between blacks and whites
The only issue is fake stereotypes
That get us nowhere they only hold us back
Smokin' reputations faster than a quarter sack
Unlike the herb, effects of a stereotype is wack
Just like crack

[Chorus]

So have we decided what we're gonna do?
With the planet we're going to inherit
Are we gonna spare it and repair it
And reconstruct the aquaduct
That harmony be flowing through
The past present and future generations
Only to be disrupted by those not in time
With the sound coming up from the
Mind body and soul
And so they try to synchronize our minds
To their sense of time
And disrupt the path our society goes
And I will do my best not to synchronize my time
To their sense of mind

[Chorus]

Time & Space lyrics - Chronic Future

Beyond time and space
There is another place
Where I can rest my soul and
Find some time to waste

Time and space
Matter misplace
Universal theory turned to waste
Faced the question
Tasted deception
Erased history for proper perception
Now we're left in emergency
B.C. caused belief to be
Can't wait for 2000 to be over
So clockwork panic can sober

I keep on thinking about
Those places that I've been
In my mind I keep on traveling
On to those distant lands

How long's it take
For the Earth to rotate around the sun
Three sixty five days
Plus a fourth for fun
Expansion of space leaves time out of place
Branjo come in with that funky ass
Bass that rolls and flips
Drops twist
Won't risk balance for this
Pessimistic clock on top of that wrist
My existence is what you missed

[Chorus]

What we already know
Shows how much we have to learn
There's more than meets the eye
Our fates can confirm

Beyond time and space
There is another place
Where I can rest my soul and
Find some time to waste

Frequently used terms
Of the laboratory contradictions
Let history
Affect my glory
'Cause so many stories
have turned into warnings
mornings continue to bring the light
prophesies of fright excite the masses
and get called right

[Chorus]

So stop drop and roll
Our future will soon be foretold
And our souls sold to the one below
And with this knowledge I know
We'll have nothing to show but
Destination control
Ain't no roll of the die but control of the mind
Will soon find time and space
Coincide with grace
Inside the maze of sensation and face
The race of people labeled not equal
On each other for purpose of sequel
Inspite of what they feel
That's the real deal
I write to reveal not conceal

[Chorus]

Whatchagonnado Mike? lyrics - Chronic Future

I'm not a sh*t talker
Never been one
Step back clear the air son
Out with the bad
In with the good
People asking me if I
Could should would and I will
Fill your brain with memory lane
I'm not insane but not too tame
Chronic Future there's game in the name
Un deux trios, kicking that raw
Flava flav, don't behave so crazy
That's what I want to see you doing
Stop screwing around
We're gonna rock this town
Upside down Ready? Blow!
How the f88k you like me now
Formulating my own style
Doing it since I was a child
Now I'm getting buck wild

Because I figure the people
Talking sh*t just don't know
Or else they understand but
They're too damn slow
Everybody always wants to be accepted
Nobody can ever do what everyone
Has expected of them
I take your minds with my lyrics
And embezzle them
I take the thoughts you think and
Put them in my trust fund
Do what you do and I hope you have fun with it
(Whatchagonnado Mike)
spit lyrics yeah
doing what I want to do
yes I'm coming live and direct from the CF crew
thought you knew everybody has their own niches
so quit talking sh*t little bitches
what people don't know is
what makes them afraid
knowledge worth knowing majik guides the way
impossible to know every detail
just 'cause you don't know doesn't mean that you
have failed

Hip hopping hard rocking nonstopping
Keep on stomping keep on dropping science
Non compliance to our government
I'm in love with the
Sound of the track don't step back
Move on forward step on towards the stage
This is lyrical rage you're amazed
I effect not like a reject I am in your deck
Whether it be tape or CD I'm screaming MC
Mike Busse in the palce to be yo Phoenix AZ
I am me you are you get that straight 1 but 2
Got you stuck on to my style just like the super glue

"Not quite sure what the rest says"
