Eminem – Going Through Changes
Yksi Recovery-albumin oleellisimpia teemoja on Eminemin kamppailu pillereiden väärinkäytöstä kohti selväpäisyyttä. Going Through Changesissa tätä matkaa ruoditaan hyvin.
”I lock myself in the bedroom, bathroom
Napping at noon, yeah dad’s in a bad mood
He’s always snapping at you
Marshall what happened that you
Can’t stop with these pills, and you’ve falling off with your skills
And your own fans are laughing at you
It become a problem you’re too pussy to tackle
Get up, be a man, stand, a real man woulda had this shit handled
Know you just had your heart, ripped out and crushed
They say Proof just flipped out, homie just whipped out and bust
Nah, it ain’t like Doody to do that,
He wouldn’t fuckin’ shoot at, nobody, he’d fight first
But dwelling on it only makes the night worse
Now I’m popping Vikes, Percs, and Methadone Pills
Yeah Em tight verse, you killed it
Fuckin’ drug dealers hang around me like Yes-Men
And they gon’ do whatever I says, whenever I says it
It’s in their best interest to protect their investment
And I just lost my fuckin’ best friend, so fuck it I guess then”
Cannibal Ox – Painkillers
Elämä on tekee kipeää ja kipua voi lievittää jos jollakin.
”You know we rap drugs and pain kill
Cause life’s ill
Yo, some nights we got so drunk
Its like we miss the feeling
Of a never ending headache
And a spinning ceiling
The sob story of an alcoholic
On his hands and knees
Praying to that porcelain toilet
Whether behind bars or in front of scars
We use medicine to numb the rap bar
I might tell you something that’ll change your death
Pain kills the life
Pleasure loves the breath
Ox a-cappell
I’ll spit this in hell
With L’s hanging off my body
And no ice cooler
Every rhyme I write
Is civilize my future wife
Breaking her water
In a time without order
Yo, chaos is born
A seance is spawned
And I resurrect light beams
That resemble the red dawn
I guess that’s why I was born
To recognize the beauty of a rose’s thorn
And learn from the strife of a soul that’s torn
To be forewarned
Just to be forearmed
So let that thought settle
As we backpeddle
Through the seven seas of info
That’ll crush your ego
Some of us pop pills and snort coke
To pain kill
Some of us rap drugs and bear witness
Cause life’s ill
Y0, but true happiness comes from within
You can’t rely on a substance
Look at addiction for instance
And in an instance
You’ll wake up out of that
Requiem for a Dream
But you still caught it in the rectum
Right here trapped in the box
Thinkin’
Rap’s all I got
Smoke too much pot
Bones with ?chromes? twisted in knots
Cold vein with thoughts
Bubbling hot
Stoned in the bedroom
Writin’ this poem
Off the phone
Caught a head rush
Smoke clouded my dome
At the end of my ropes
Writing these notes
Hopin’ to float
Above this bullshit
Pull spliffs blowin’ the ghosts
The sky’s the limit
Stay high with vision
Visualize the body righteous
Lost cipher
The mind’s wisdom
Helped me through life’s transitions
I’m in a tight position
Hungry-ass shit flippin’
With no sex or wretch
This stress got my chest a mess
Breathless
I’m vexed
Trying to escape out of the depths
Of hell’s nest
So I rest inhale
The trauma blessed
And let the stress exhale
Through clouds of cess
My mind foggy
And body wet
Poppin’ shotties
Shot straight through the nostril
Cloudy with thoughts of ill type menageries
When pops used to tell me
”it wasn’t like this
With drugs and sex
Up in my day”
But poppy
Shit really changed
Yo niggas is losing their minds
And I can’t really blame them
I’m losing my brain
In these times
And I’m angered with hangovers
Ready to ride off a cliff with a Range Rover
Like I was fuckin’ Thelma & Louise
And if I had a trigger I would squeeze
But ?leave?
Blow my whole head off and bleed
Trying to get that same feeling
Every day pain killing”
Gravediggaz – Defective Trip (Trippin’)
Trippailu ei aina mene putkeen.
”want to see something that could make ya sick?
Stand in front of jets on the Gaza strip
I used to take puffs from a car, jet in my garage
Then I get blitzed from the charge
I felt my head swayin, my eyes in a daze
Felt and violence and off balance I got drugged for days
A room full of smog, I dipped it in my dart
then I threws it at my dog
I need another hit, Hurry, Quick! Hurry, Quick!
My high’s takin signs and the shit’s about to kick
I’m gaspin’ for air, my vision disappears,
I’m blinkin’ and I’m thinkin’ Yeah!
Word, cause that’s the shit I was hawkin
So stay the fuck away ’cause I spit when I’m talkin
Stupid, Stupid, Stupid, Stupid Punk
When I’m trippin’
Chorus
Some people like cheeba, some like brew,
I get mad lifted off four gallons of glue,
Pretty soon I spin like a top, In the middle of the room
And the shit won’t stop!
Now What I see when I triiiiippppp…
The rats in the basement all start to flip,
All through my building, from door to door,
I swear there’s a fire, so I piss on the floor,
Now down the corridor was old fat Ned,
Schemin’ on a blowjob from a crackhead,
He was like ’hey want to piece little man?’
I was like ’Yo, I’m better off with my haaaannnndddd!!!!!!!’
Oh shit, reality returns,
I need another hit but the glue won’t burn,
I’m cukoo and murderous, Just plain nuts,
smokin’ sodium menthol cigarette butts,
and trippin’…
Chorus
(yo, pass it man)
86 on the strip, and yo’ my hands was…,
the reaper, the keeper, my niggaz let’s get… i put the high on the stimuli,
I’m like the two face, like the signs of gemini,
My head keeps on spinnin’, constantly continuin’
Two tabs of mescaline, fucks up my adrenaline,
I’m in a… Uhhhh… I can’t escape it,
It’s like… uggghh… goddamit I hate it!
So take it like a (brine), from the grapes of a vine,
The wine, it fucks up my mind, everytime,
I’m goin’, and all I want to be doin’ is bonin’,
But like a dope fiend character I’m…,
I’m stuck, fl-fl-flipping, sssslipping…
I’m tripping…
Life of the…
Can be stopped by accident
When you’re tripping
(Cuz I’m trippin’)”
The Psycho Realm – Confessions of a Drug Addict
The Psycho Realmin esikoislätys biisi alkaa osuvasti samplella The Doors elokuvasta.
”Intro [Jim Morrison The Doors Movie]
Hey Man.. I feel the universe functioning perfectly but i’m still perfectly locked inside myself..
Instead of oneness i feel isolation..
Chorus [Big Duke] What type of drugs do you do?
And, what do you do to get your hands on your, shit mothafucka,
Huh! What kind of dirty tricks you do to get yourself fixed,
You’re all sick; is it lack of love? Or lack of your withdrawal.
Drugs!! I need femine venoms in the system,
In order to function, with the rhythm.
[Big Duke] You get hooked to the look of wild women,
And wanna live in, the land of the unforgiven,
Habits, that turn, bad ones individuals,
make ’em, poison rituals,
Gotta have it a have it, a habit,
Welcome, your traces of an addict.
[B Real] God forgive me for my bad habits,
Drug addict, needle up in my vein, I got to have it,
To kill the pain, you silly rabbit,
dig a hole under the sun to hide from the static.
Automatic, pressure, got to kill it,
Give me some act..rite juice, so I can feel it,
Aahhh…everything is all right,
The eye of the needle cries out to the dark side.
Looking inside through the outdoor knocking,
But society won’t let me in, so I grab my stockin,
Put over my head, and get the dough,
Cause the needle is my God, and smack is my soul,
Paraphernalia in my domain, brings conclusion,
That I’m using, but the question is am I abusing,
Infested in the residence of pico union,
Drug intrusion, color fusion,
Invasion, of your senses, maintain relapse, Dilate eye lenses.
my dependence on the chemical, artifical dreams,
Is what, makes my, habit obscene.
Chorus [Big Duke]
What type of drugs do you do?
And, what do you do to get your hands on your, shit mothafucka,
Huh! …What kind of dirty tricks you do to get yourself fixed,
You’re all sick; is it lack of love? Or lack of your withdrawal.
Drugs!! I need femine venoms in the system,
In order to function, with the rhythm.
[Sick Jacken] Tinted like the darkest shadows, my mind is cloudy,
Subliminal commands will penetrate, then I get rowdy,
Conditions drowsy, the sedative brings negative energy,
I slump down and stare ahead of me.
Powerful like meth amphetamines, my state is altered,
This here’s no lie, hydroponic, chronic,
Got you feeling all erotic, aphrodisiac who’s got it,
Alvarado maniacs, risk prison time buyin…
…Dimes, When you got a fix, you get in the mix, there’s no denyin,
Drug be the only factor, got me in the rapture,
Make an addict out of you, And proceed to capture, your mind.
[Big Duke] You’re, mine, choke hold to your whole, skull, substance uncontrolled,
Who holds, straight keys to locks, and unlocks, key holes.
The structure of my trip is unstoppable,
I’m 50 hits to the dot, all powerful.
We go, deranged and remain living the last days in the haze of purple micro.
[B Real] I remember when I was a high school star,
Had prom queens, scholarship, brand new car,
It’s funny, you never know who your friends are,
Till you lose all your sensibilities to the jar,
From The act..rite, But I’m all wrong,
No wonder my family,
Don’t wanna have nothing to do with me,
Humiliation, neglect, no respect,
The concept of rehabilitation has been swept,
I wish I was clean, a far fetched dream,
But what other way, am I gonna blow of my steam,
[All Together]Heaven’s all in this bottle of juice
[B Real]Making me feel high
[Sick Jacken]Making me feel loose
[Big Duke]Got nowhere to turn to, no one trust me, I don’t even trust myself”
Ritarikunta – Addikti
Ritarikunnan tunnetuin huumebiisi lienee Mediheli, mutta vuoden 2005 RK- Kroonisesti akuutti lätyn Addikti on myös mielenkiintoinen biisi. Laulussa ei mainita huumeita lainkaan vaan siinä lauletaan levyaddiktiosta. Kehys ja idea on kuitenkin napattu NA-kokouksesta ja siellä tapahtuvasta oman koukkuun jäämisen tarinan kertomisesta. Istuu mun mielestä ihan hyvin tälle sivustolle :-)

shamamaanisdepressiivinen…
periaatteesta, puolueen hikeen
annan aikaa, saan kirjasta niteen
asenteen alta löydän mielipiteen
päälle arvoo, saan ideaalisiteen
pyyhin pölysestä peilistä lian
päihteiden paratiisis pimeetä pian
harhakuvat kantaa hapoista kammoo
pidän huumeet koukussa, naapuritkin vannoo
kaupungin laidasta, yhdestä ikisee
tääl tuuli huutaa ja pakkane vikisee
kierreportaita hikisee itiksee
lukko naksahti porttikongin pitimeen
ei aurinko paista, taivaassa palaa
lapset katsomassa rauta-aidan takaa
betonimyllärillä, sementti ympärillä
tsy tsydää kipinän tsy tsytkärillä
astun syyttömänä poliksen uumenii
aatteen palosta yks tunteista kuumeni
henkee haukkoo, huokaa eikä
vuotaa silmistämme samallaisii kyyneleitä
hyvinvoinnin takas rasiaan laittaa
valmis kuolemaa parempaa paikkaa
tääl heilutaan niskasta koukussa
ilmas rimpuillaan täydessä touhussa
ei ismejä, ei riskejä
ei fiksejä, opi aatteit
tääl roikutaan niskasta koukussa
tautien maas, päästämme loukussa
ei ismejä, ei riskejä
menee itsestää, opi aatteit
ei järkee jäillä kappaleeseen
suutelee visioo, tappaa teeveen
hermojen muuriin raivonsa blessaa
meist jokainen kasvanu laitoksessa
äly siunataan muovisis flindoissa
hiekat siivilöidään pois pilvilinnoista
miettimismyssy, hernepyssy
tappamas syssy, mut sanoja syntyy
kääntyy sisää ja tietonsa käärii
ei kipuu, nälkää, millistä määrii
käperryn kokoon patjalle uinuu
seinämän viilloist maito paikalleen kuivuu
silmät sihisee sinisenä hileessä
kuin lieden liekki pienellä pimeessä
korvaan osuu, seinästä kimpoo
neljä semmost ei pidättele elämän intoo
poltin päreiksi ja kävelin aurinkoo
kirjaviisaus kiveksi linkoo (la la la)
tääl heilutaan niskasta koukussa
ilmas rimpuillaan täydessä touhussa
ei ismejä, ei riskejä
ei fiksejä, opi aatteit
tääl roikutaan niskasta koukussa
tautien maas, päästämme loukussa
ei ismejä, ei riskejä
menee itsestää, opi aatteit
kerrasta opin, en oo odottamas tokaa
leikkaan haavaan ajatuksemme kotaa
syvästä saveen ja savesta lokaan
kävellään viikattuna suonissa opaa
opeista kii, päästä aatteista irti
varastin vasaran, nyt saisinko sirpin
jätän kasvuvaraa syytetyn penkkiin
elämä ei oo tentti tai tietojemme visa
nihilisti lyö rummuilla kintuille
siiretty sydämesi pumpulissa rimpuilee
duunarista demari soppaan tulisee
ikkunat ulisee, lipputanko humisee
tie vie pois rikkauksista tunnissa
pienkunnissa, vihreentummissa
valkoniskoja, punahaarniskoja
väistäkää jokaist joka lukemassa liikaa
en oo vasemmalla, en oo ikinä oikees
kapakan läävässä, sentää väärässä
tuulen nielasin, tyrskyt siemasin
vitsit hylkäsin ismit sylkäsin
kolme päivää ja muistaa hän tän
pusu pusu valta bäng bäng
tääl heilutaan niskasta koukussa
ilmas rimpuillaan täydessä touhussa
ei ismejä, ei riskejä
ei fiksejä, opi aatteit
tääl roikutaan niskasta koukussa
tautien maas, päästämme loukussa
ei ismejä, ei riskejä
menee itsestää, opi aatteit
