02. I Against I

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Jenifer, Miller
In the quest for the test to fulfill an achievement
Everybody's only in it for themselves
When the fact of the matter is they just don't care
To extend a helping hand to anyone else
So tell me why, did you have to lie
And try to make me all confused about the U.S.A.
When the fact of the matter is you just don't care
To comprehend or understand a single word I say
I don't want to have I go against I
Oh let me tell you
The same old story, no factual glory
I against I against I against I
And I say I don't like it, and I know I don't want it
I against I against I against I
Almighty watching, almighty watching
I against I against I against I
And I say I don't like it, and I know I don't want it
I against I against I against I
I said who's gonna tell the youth about the drugs
About the drugs, mugs, bugs, and the police thugs
About the rotten stinkin' rackets and the fantasies
Around the nation, around the nations
Oh baby what you gonna do
I tell you the truth is looking straight at you
I got a brass continental with a 300 Z, two color t.v.s,now a video too
I got a rest home in Jamaica for my fantasy, for my family
Around the nation
Around the nations
What you gonna do.

03. House Of Suffering

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Miller
In this house of suffering
I gotta let some joy in
I hear that freedom will win
Oh where oh where can Jah love be now
My dear, it's here in the underground
Inside the hearts of your own children
In this house of suffering
I spiritual logic grin, in
One way grace is my friend
To conquer doom and sin
And all the nations lying
While all our people crying
And they stop at nothing!...nothing!...nothing!
In this house of suffering
Don,t want but just one thing
Got to have my origin
In this house of suffering.

Consolation reflection within
When our actions cause reaction what starts
A transmission of a love in one heart.

That this gross sphere is not Jah land.
Apart-outside, who can escape.

No celesty ever resting begin
When grace melts inside your hand and my heart
Is the glory that much closer or apart.

05. Secret 77

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Jenifer, Miller
Secret. Secret 77, another lesson in life secret 77.
To their surprise with time to thrive Mr. Rhythm cut the jive.
And to their belief under your wheel brother vibe dare not steal.
He that oppress reproach his maker.
He that honor him have mercy on the poor.
Secret 77, another blessing to share.
Secret 77. Invisible to you and me.
No you just cannot see.
For now it's time you've got to nab it,
One-hundred in one, like inspector gadget.
You will always find at sunrise on the way to meet your boss.
He that oppress reproach his maker.
He that honor him have mercy on the poor.
Secret 77. Doesn't have but one true friend to share his life unto the end.
And now a big surprise we can thrive and stay alive. Secret 77.

06. Let Me Help

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Jenifer, Miller
Ergonomics Legality (Chuck it.)
Does it show, we love to be free?
Plain and simple, are you okay?
For tomorrow, we generate the courage today.
Is your will about to quake and melt?
Let me help, let me help.
Psychopathic Brutality (Stop it.)
Rejuvenate more integrity.
Universal all live as one,
Edification first, then we can have some fun.
A voice cried loud and clear as we knelt,
Let me help, let me help.
Bummy thoughts again, but hey you got a friend.
And he may bless thee.
Even the dungeon, and the one that's on the crumb,
Live I-ternally.
When they kill and pain for gains of wealth:
Let me help, let me help
Keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.

07. She's Calling You

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Jenifer
She's calling you.
Floating up the street synthetic sounds are sweet.
To everyman I meet, this is how I greet.
Did you get that call? Or were you not at home?
Little chance you'll miss. Just steady on your phone.
I know you're glad. Wisdom's not sad.
She's calling you...
Vibrating cosmic waves, spirit electricity.
Kaleidoscopic treat. In the endless sea.
Is there one for all. Inseparable to no other.
One voluntary kiss keeps contemplating home.
I know you're glad.
She's calling you.
She's calling.

08. Sacred Love

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Jenifer, Miller
Sacred love, Sacred love.
Baby baby, baby, baby,
I don't want you to come to me as a whore.
Don't lust off my body baby,
That's a bore.
I see our love as being sacred,
Just you and me.
We not need our business in the street, reality.
I'm in here you're out there.
We know a prayer, no lying. Our hearts declare.
Sacred love, sacred love.
Maybe Jah will bless us be one tomorrow.
Visit from you every Tuesday, right on time.
A picture of you came through in the mail,
No you're not far.
You've got me hanging on a miracle,
Spiritually.
I'm in here, you're out there.
We know a prayer,
No crying, no lying.
Our hearts declare.
Sacred love, sacred love.
It's not a physical communication.
Be brave persevere through it all.
I and I get sickled on sacred love.
I and I get tickled .
Sacred love.

09. Hired Gun

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Jenifer, Miller
Hired gun
Hired gun for sale
Hired gun, on the run
He won't fail

Requesting quick, they asked the people
Where's the hired gunman's trail?
He turned into a dark, cold corner
His is the face that is so pale

Hired gun
He's on the run
He has no fun, no

Please sit down, services rendered
Now we must decide the pay
Bargains to bribes, broken agreement
So much more had but to pray
Next a scam to execute, but a bit too cute
So if you're looking for adventure
Go check the hired gun for sale

Hired gun
He's on the run
Better watch out, boy
'Cause he don't know fun

Hired gun for sale

10. Return To Heaven

Music by Bad Brains
Lyrics by Hudson, Jenifer, Miller
Packed and racked like rats they were down in Hell
A detestable smell like a poison well, no heaven.
Chose a divine light they laughed that that was a drag
Instead they lived in a bag, just caught a snag.
Pure craven. It's the final call great and small.
Our time not theirs we're all aware. Return... to heaven.
Grown up in the shitty with a gift to survive
And yes the time has arrived to know that love is alive this season.
But still they can't achieve to hope an alternative deny
What faith has to give a place where we want to live.
No reason. You all aware, don't you dare.
Everyone will be there. Return unto heaven.
