Lyrics for 12:12
Kypstro
Heads get mad cause I sing a little bit and…
And I’m 2 articulate man,
Just different fundamentally
And that I’m not a gangsta it’s all funded mentally
Meant to be what I be since I was younger
Welcome to the terror dome, bring in the thunder
Not Australian but I’m down under
Ground like the turtles in the sewer kawabunga
Still the hunger pains remain from the early days
And I’m a have em’ even when I hit the pearly gates
Like St. Pete, give me a beat
He’ll ask for one good reason and I’ll give him 16
All I got, all I know, all I’ve done
Lion’s gate, Vancity, Kyp’s the midnight sun
That’s why, I’m coaching and I’m stubborn too
You players lost the game, that’s why the fuck I’m running you
All over the track, cause I’m all over the map
You’re quarterback got sacked, my linebacker back my lines like that
The oldies man they’re coming back
Saved By The Bell like Screech and yup the Zack Attack
Kyp Bukowski fuck Kelly Kapowski
Up outta my balcony bust a nut than I’m Audi
A4, get what you payed for
I’m Canadian, I’m trying to say “eh” more
Cause he’s dope eh, he’s fresh eh,he’s nice eh?
He’s really built eh? Fuckin’ rights eh?
We up North with the weed if there’s doubts there
Come get your ass beat enjoy the free health care
Kyprios12
Let Go
Let go, of my diamond in the metro
Rose pedal in a ghetto
Noveau becoming retro
Love is the rearview, nothing but an echo
Still I know u shine bright
Burning in the lime light
The war is over why fight?
Clock told the truth so I knew that the time’s right
It’s over for the her and me
I told her never hurry me
If love was a currency?
Currently we’re broke with no hope for a new relief… so
U know ur beautiful
I always told you so
Baby hold on tight cause
I gotta let u go
The news becoming old
Can’t give you what u want
Maybe one more night then
I gotta let u go
You, entertaining individual
Me, immature but indivisible
Us, easy was so difficult
Ladybug and Butterfly but it wasn’t Digable
No, Planets weren’t aligned right
Oh, could never get them signs right
So, Cancer in a catfight
With a Leo but u need to know I’m gonna feel the bite
Of course I’m gonna wonder who
Makes u feel high like the sun rise under you
Under blue skies, under new eyes
Understand under the truth, u know I ain’t over you
Overdue when our lovin’ is overproof
Over you I get more open than a vocal booth
Hopin’ the truth is leaving soap in the wound
Clean break got me open but you know that I’ll be closing soon
Chorus
Kyprios12
Sunny Side Eggs
(Chorus)
Hit me on a summer day with sunny side eggs
An array of the rays and the sun on my face
What a day to run away on a Sunday
Slip away in the shade
Now I don’t wanna grow up sho’ nuf
Because the world’s gonna be blown up, hold up
Now if the world’s gonna be blown up
Then that’s a grown folk problem I don’t wanna grow up
But I’m a growing boy, I’m even losing hair
Still play with toys, I catch sexual stares
From the females, they want the details of how my heat feels
When I put it on ya strap on your seatbelts
… HA back to reality
I feel like a kid on Halloween getting celery
Sticks. When all I want is a Kit Kat
Gimme a break a head fake and a jumpshot
Miss… (mystery) I’m miserable
I’m outta my mind, I’m outta my space, ahead of my time, get outta my face
I’ve something to say to you
I’m the K to the Y to the P to the R to the I to the O to the esScense true
Hit me on a summer day with sunny side eggs
An array of the rays and the sun on my face
What a day to run away on a Sunday
Slip away in the shade
Let me tell you a little bit about my self, I’m a cancer
And a man with many questions and very few Allen Iverson’s
And I have been incapable of taking over
No I’m not in the army, but yes I’m a soldier
Don’t drink cream soda, don’t think things over
Dorrito on my arm I mean a chip on my shoulder
Sometimes that chip becomes a crack in the ice
I might fall through, but I won’t call you
From the rainy city of the Lion’s Gate where the days are great
Got my own wit and I’m sharper than a razor blade
When I say all I need to say and the pay is made
Kyprios the comet will gracefully fade away
Hit me on a summer day with sunny side eggs
An array of the rays and the sun on my face
What a day to run away on a Sunday
Slip away in the shade
i don’t snort cocaine. I’d rather eat some Coco Puffs or coconuts
From Kokomo with coco butter on my nuts
With Yoko Ono oh no Yoko Pocahontas down with me
Like Paul told John I’ll just let it be
Let it be let it be
Just my verbal poetry
Trapped in your brain cells I’ve come to set you free
Free your mind you’re beautiful
Not a better competitor to edit the edible elements of intelligence
Now I don’t care if the sun comes out today
I’m a still go away
But if that sun decides to show his face
I’ll race you to the moonlight
Hit me on a summer day with sunny side eggs
An array of the rays and the sun on my face
What a day to run away on a Sunday
Slip away in the shade
Crawled then I walked then I talked then I rocked and I’ll run inside the sun.
Kyprios 12
She’s Gone
Moka
Oh boy oh boy, she was my Almond Joy
With them almond eyes and when we harmonized damn
We employed my “Surd-a-bed” she cleared me up like Sudafed
She got it
And of course, I fell off the horse
Like ‘what she didn’t know won’t altar the course’
Til what she didn’t know went ahead and got ahold of her directly
Home wrecking and testing
Every last shred of her confidence in me
We continued though much more flimsy
All I had to do was be true, I blew it
I swear that’s what I’m made to do, she knew it
Eventually, she’s sensing we
Didn’t have a big future in defense she leaves
To another mans hands intensity
And I thought she was my destiny
Chorus
My baby’s gone
She’s gone gone gone gone gone gone
She’s gone she’s gone
She’s gone gone gone gone gone gone
She’s gone, so long
Kyprios
I tried to take my time,I had a place in mind
Where the sun would shine upon my baby and I
I asked that girl to be mine, I guess Ill never no why
She told me sorry but ur way of life could not satisfy…
Yeah, cause I MC, rap outta emptiness
And I’m broke, don’t attract even tempt a ms.
She want a better man, not under Kyp again
Who can make the paper like Dunder Mifflin
If and when, u meet that better gentleman
I will never be offended that u ever let him in
I just want her to be happy
I’m a fuckin kill myself or practice chastity shit
(Chorus x 2)
Moka Only and Kyprios12
Daddy
Let’s get it straight, ur moms fuckin’ hates me
I ain’t good enough for her pudding pop baby
Crazy but it may be true, boo hoo
See me on the street don’t assume that we’re cool
Til I do, all of your friends, follow them in
To a park or apartment they can swallow again and then
I post the pix on ur facebook site
So u see what my new O face looks like
“Oh oh” pretty fuckin’ sweet right?
Tell ur ma when she see my ma there’ll be a street fight
Lifestyle I filled with stupid little stuff
And my raps and my skills ain’t lucrative enough?
For her princess, princess, princess
Mostly royalty is brought about by incest
Investigate or estimate the STD’s
That you’ll receive for fuckin’ with me at least three…
(Chorus)
She don’t call me daddy anymore
She’ll only tell u I’m an asshole
She’s tellin everybody I know
I know, well I know
She don’t call me daddy anymore
She’ll only tell you I’m an asshole
She’s tellin’ everybody I know
Yeah, I know
This ain’t the Montagues or the Capulets
I got the wrap it up box bitch I’ll wrap it up quick
Now even my cat got beef with ur cat too
Jack him for his catnip, murk him for his cat food
That’s true, he doesn’t even have to
I guess good pussy just knows and is glad to
Do what they supposed to do as opposed to you
Soap opera episode so true, so u
High maintenance, why am I wasted in my time?
Why u stickin’ around, aint gonna get mine?
U ain’t fine, u ain’t shit
Cocky trick go to H-E- double hockey sticks
Yeah, I owe u money come and get it back
Actually keep ur fuckin’ hands in ur honey sack dummy
What u still love me?
Get Pescie’d like Ginger in Casino honey bunny I’m gone…
(Chorus)
Kyprios12
Throw It Away
Gone with the wind and I’m on it again
Livin’ every minute of it lovin’ knowing that I’m in it
Live and learn, get a burn, get a scar
Take a turn, get a life, get a bike, get a car
Get a new girl, old girl got an “oh girl attitude
Look at him takin’ it outta u”
What the fuck is up with that? Got to get the butter back
But at last Baby David got a better track
Better ask, don’t know, don’t tell
Clever lad, won’t blow, won’t sell
Never mad that I got a bad pen and a pad lemon in hand a lemonade
And the man is a bandit abandoned the plan of Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
What a band, what a man and I am what I am
And I do what I can can, what I can…
Chorus
Movin’ it out and movin’ away
Rollin’ it up and blowin’ away
Then throw it away, throw it away
Nothing to lose and something to gain
We rollin’ it up and blowin’ away
Then throw it away
We only got it for a moment so we got it keep it movin’
Get it then u got it if u don’t then u will lose it
Abuse it then ruin and doin’ the same
We usin’ the movement, improvin’ then movin again
movin’ up, gettin’ up, gettin’ by
Get it right, live it up, “whatchu doin’ with ur life”?
Never mind what is in my little mind
Mind ur manners man u never know when u will die
U mean to say goodbye? U need to say hello
So we can keep it it hi-er everywhere we go, c’mon
Chorus
I’ve been around, seen up and seen down
I’ve seen the ceilings of heaven and hell’s basement underground and we
See it we need it, we beat it leave it bleeding, repeat it
We plant the seed but leave it be without the heating and be it
As it may, what about the shade, what about the pain?
What about the little bit of rain that carries everything away
When the levy breaks down will the town float away?
Yeah it will till u build it with a little bit of skill
Only minimal amout of men will win it all
Give it all or give it up, ya never know when it is up
Throw away the bullshit, I’m wicked til my time is up…
Kyprios12
November 11th
In the beginning, I barely made an inning
Daddy didn’t want me in a game he wasn’t winning
Cause he had, 6 other lads from 4 different women
Told my ma he didn’t think he really had it in him
But she had me in her, even that occurred
When monogamy wasn’t in his vernacular
Ask of her, she’ll tell that it’s accurate
Ask of him, she’ll tell you he’s a sack of shit
Not me though, poppa is my people
May have been a rolling stone but gave me everything I need to grow
Taught me everything I need to know
I know enough, to know it’s him I owe
And I remember having brothers and the benefits
That came along with starting beef because I was a lippy shit
Little Kyp, stealing momma’s cigarettes
And her gin, drink a bit then got sick off it
Opposite of opulent when my story’s told
I love my momma much more than she could ever know
Matty, Mike, Addy, KC, Deuce and Diesel
The Coles family, yeah, beloved people…
(Chorus)
I remember how it
Used to be you and me doing what we believe
Usually on the free, everything you have been will be
Safe inside my memories
Everything you had to do to get us through
You and I stay alive
If I forget to be true all I got to do is
Remember you
I remember makin’
Music for the fun of it, comin’ up with
New shit cause we lovin’ it, and I would never
Do this for the money I was gonna get
Gonna get, gotta get, going going gone
Fucked up when they give u money for a song
When they know it’s something u would do for free
Get exploited it and then they tell u who to be, see
They wonder why the industry’s burnin’ and everybody’s turnin’ out shit
Ain’t nothin’ permanent just searchin’ for a hit and an outfit
Outta they’re mind this audio’s mine
Mine alone, leave my mind alone
With the headphones on all my stress feels gone
And I know, when I’m low and need to get it right
I remember all the music that I’ve had throughout my life and I’m alright
(Chorus)
Kyprios12
The Only One
Hey hey, how u doing today?
The name is Kyprios so make a move out the way
Hey hey, who u tryin’ to be?
I can barely walk straight so don’t follow me
Hey hey, I got nothin’ to prove
With my sunshine rhythm for ur rainy day blues
Hey hey, I know nothing is free
But I’m a tell u a little somethin’ way my momma told me
(Chorus)
I’m the only one that’s givin’
Givin’ u a break for the way u livin’
Tryin’ tell u somethin’ boy u won’t listen
Think u got it made when u ain’t made a difference
I choose to introduce u
To the who is who of new and yes the true school
I won’t confuse u but get used to
What we do cause we doin’ it for u and u
And who wanna excuse me of using the muse that I choose
When I chew on the tunes interfused with the blues
Views are in the news, Kyprios can never lose
If the record gotta groove, the mecca gotta move
Smoothe like Big Daddy and the Juice Crew
Feels like it used to, when u were introduced to
Shit u could get loose to, elbows got bruised to
Hands were in the air like the antlers of a moose do
Cause I’m from Canada dude, and that’s how Canada do
A live wire gets u higher than the man on the moon
The bap with the boom, the funks with a spoon
I’m only telling u the way my momma told me to and…
(Chorus)
Chin speak…
Now I ain’t got no money or no love company
I got myself a story you’ll learn something from me
Now I ain’t got no money or no love company
But I’ll tell u a little somethin’ way my momma told me
Eat ur veggies dummy, exercise when it’s sunny
Respect ur elders fellas, ladies learn to live it lovely
My momma told me somethin’ don’t hold on to one who doesn’t
Know any good like they should cause they good for nothin’
Speak with a purpose, know what u say before u say it
So the people won’t forget they’ve heard it
My momma talked a lot, in life I forgot a lot
Remember to live it up cause it’s the only one I got and…
(Chorus)
Kyprios12
Love and Tear Drops
(Chorus)
Love and teardrops, sex and company
Hate and happiness, wealth and misery
Love and teardrops, sex and company
Hate and happiness, wealth and Ms. Misery
Love is the one that makes the pain stop
And usually the thing that produces teardrops
Sex as an act substitutes inefficiently
But life can be so lonely man you just need some company
Hate is the face of war and added fists
And if ya interested in this you’ll never find happiness
Wealth in itself is something I see differently
Ya want it too bad it leads ya straight into misery
Chorus
Love is the thing to change a boy to a man
Help ya understand the pain the way that teardrops can
Sex relieves stress from your neck
You can do it on your own but with company’s best
Hate, put the hate away, the hate will grade away
The happiness you wanna save for a later day
Wealth, it ain’t all about the money
People have it and they’re miserable now ain’t that funny dummy
Chorus
Love… is a lifelong conquest
Tears drop when you lose it, did you love it or abuse it?
Sex.., cause we all get fucked
Life’s tough getting by but good company’s enough
Hate… it’s like the easiest thing
When you don’t understand what true happiness brings
Wealth… judge that one internally
Hope we learn to be a people free from the misery
Chorus
Kyprios12
Something To Lose
Chorus
U need to get up get out and get something
Before u let them get over on u
Or u can stay in, lay down and do nothing
But yo nothin’ ain’t something to lose so move
Metty
Do u really think that I planned it this way
Standing with my hand out handing out resumes?
Another day another buck another way a motherfuck
Stuck in a rut tryin’ to make it through another month
Pure bred underdog comin’ from the yard
My heart is hardened but I still walk under God
I got a lot on my plate but I’m hungry
I got drive and faith and ain’t nobody take it from me
Made money come a million ways
But will u really save face when ur children say
“He mastered the flow but had nothin’ to show
But half assed videos and a handful of shows
No mansion or rolls, no platinum or gold”
Can’t keep the bully full… on potential
So, I’m on the grizzly grind just puttin’ in time
sittin still fillin’ books with my hooks and ryhmes
So won’t find me chillin’ with nothin’ to do
Cause in this life I got too much prove
Chorus
Kyp
They said I couldn’t make it
They say I shouldn’t try
But who are they and who am I to give a fuck what they say
I’m a make it anyway to survive
I ain’t the quittin’ type, I’m quick to get it right
Give it while I got it, u can get it anyway u like
U like that, u like that?
I’m the underdog under these dogs who bites back
I ain’t the biggest motherfucker
But my pop said always hit the biggest motherfucker
U might not knock him down
But if u fight right guys will respect when u around
It’s an uphill battle, that’ll be the day
When I hit the coast and I coast all the way
To a zone overgrown with some cushion
I’m halfway home but stil pushin’
Metty and Kyprios
Holdin’ On
Lamar Ashe
Up in smoke
Somebody testify for me
Broke
In my body and my mind
Feelin’ low
But not no more, get up, get out these struggles
But the darkness she knows me
Tries to control me
But I keep just a piece of the light in my life and it holds
Chorus
I done lost my grip more than one time
Dealin’ with some shit up my mind
I kinda lost my way
Still tryin’ to find it
Gotta keep holdin’ on
Gotta keep holdin’ on
Gotta keep holdin’ on
Gotta keep holdin’ on
Kyprios
Up in smoke
Nobody testified for me
Broke
In my body and my mind
Feelin’ low
And no I don’t need a dictionary
I’ll look between shit and syphilis if I need sympathy
Life is a card game like need it, need it, got it
Paper need it, peace need it, stress and pain got it got it
Rookie card is garbage I can’t blame that on a bad team
I’m in the record books as the never was a has been
As seen on TV with handouts and freebies
I’m easy leave me, I’m busy being me believe me
Even though I’ve only got my health and feeling of this song
I got enough to hold on
Chorus
Gotta keep on climbin’ nothing can divide us
Struggle to survive the day
Gotta keep holdin on
Every day we rise and suffer but we try and
hustle to provide a way
Gotta keep holdin on
Lyrics by Lamar Ashe and Kyprios
