The Crest - Heart Shaped Box lyrics

[Verse 1] With the cards in my heart you can't call the bluff I'm workin hard on my part, still starvin...What Can you say about a person when thats all he does? I'm OJ with the verse and leave a wall of blood You can't say I'm not determined, you can call it love Music's like churches to all of us Problems will surface in all of us So come out with your purpose and a start a fuss And I might not know the people you do Or hang in crowds you might expect me to So please excuse this, my need to do this Trumps all else so I pump the music And I'm not just here to blow my own horn And I'm not just here to make my money I'm just here cuz a heart don't fit in a box And that's what you can't take from me Take a turn like your blinker's on From the burn and learn to forget the storm Whether you're kurds or serbs, rooks, kings or pawns You deserve to get hurt for the things you fought...yup, yup For the things you sought You deserve to be certain in the things there are You can serve to a sermon to pimp your car Long as you determine the things too far [Hook] I can make like a raven and watch All the fakes as I prey on the flock I'm in a place I can say what I want All within this heart shaped box... All within this heart shaped box [Verse 2] This is livin' the right verse, writin' to live. Where... Fit'n in the finish is the name of the biz..ness Heart's the reason I don't give up and quit Its all to stop me from not givin' a sh**. So... I play the hand thats been handed to me. Got... To hold it down or I can't set it free. Not... Gonna sound like the next emcee Rest in peace You see the crest within me, yah Tim McGraw is who I'm thinkin' I are Singin' songs 'bout my life and my girl in the bar In the middle of a song I got the world in my palm And I eat it bit by bit, 'til I hurl on my lawn. Yeah More spit than the mouth of a dog On the couch with a ball, chillin after the haul Yo an anthill to most is a mountain to crawl Cuz us Americans will never get outta our cars Here's proof of a pulse A movement a cause A room with a view for you to view all Got troops in the gulf while we cruise in our cars Little loops like a belt, there we go, here we are This is gra** roots for fast food And I just can't think at the take of a spot So whether I make it or not I'm gonna take up space in this heart shaped box [Hook] [Verse 3] Never did I once think That life amounts to one thing But when you die, it's one thing That turns your life into nothing And lookin' back on the past through the rear defrost Never thought I would last so I peered across And knowing that's in the clear, now the fear is lost Cuz what's happenin' here is the beat of heart So, until somethings proven I'm losing Faith in whatever they're doing Won't take two steps in the movement If my two cents is useless What's bent can't bent in my juices Not content with the trends in my music Got my pen that's my friend and I move it To make sense outta all the confusion Yea, we need to start a revolution Dedicated to makin' major improvements Dedicated to flaggin' fakers as foolish Dedicated to takin' down the rulers Dedicated to seein' through illusions Dedicated to beein' who you is Dedicated to makin' the new blueprints That are forever depicted as trueness [Hook]
