Aima's LYRICS: Some like em nice/ some like em nasty Boys when they do you trip-fantastic Don't mean a thing if the heart's plastic I'll tell you what, mine's not made of elastic It's meant to stretch only so wide Only for those who have open eyes And can see what a queen might need Beyond just planting that seed While trying to keep the vibes real hot That's not the only G-spot Bring your attention a little bit higher Keep on going till you hit that wire Mental. Electricity. Crack. Snap What's that Jack? Spark that. Laid flat. Oh the joys that you could bring... But let me tell you Nasty Boys just one more thing....

AIMA'S LYRICS: From city to city, let me now define To get into a W. Coast state of mind Was once on the outside looking in These are the stories of my soul... Feel the heartbeat through my feet pounding city streets Feel the magic of the local peeps that you meet The Yay got queer, thugs, hipsters and freaks. It's got. Poets, punks, protestors, computer geeks. It's got. So much mystique for one place perfect. I got. To use my Hip Hop technique to reflect. It's hot. A melting pot of progress and thought. I got. Caught between cement and woodblock. Love affair, seduced I knew not 7 years the Town had me locked The vibe. The sound. The beats had me shocked The Bay. I'm down. You bout to be rocked

AIMA'S LYRICS: Give it beat. Give it breath. I was born to express Let em know I'm obsessed With that quality def HELLO! Wave your flag, I'm on flow patrol An old pro, I make em glow with that electric soul Let it go. Set it free. If it's meant to be It'll bump. It'll jump. It'll clear debris We take it down, with a chant, to the Town you see It's the Cali-fly funk that'll set you free Believe me, it's broken chains as they tried to tame A girl's game that was truly meant to flame I burn it up. Fiyah-spitta is my other name I blow it up. Do as I please and take aim

AIMA'S LYRICS: Crunk. Crump. Bump. Against all the anguish Street slang bangs on the walls of language Spanglish. Franglais. Doesn't matter what I say When it comes to the heart it all translates So I transform. Co-create. Generate bliss from the scorn I've been working on this ish since the day born Mind don't quit, it keeps me up till the morn A Come on Leave me be. Now bring me home Push me out my comfort zone And when I call Don't want to hear the dial tone So pick it up And answer to the unknown HELLO? Eyes open check it Energy electric Company eclectic Movements connected When the people stand up and request it Rise up to the occasion and be invested HOOK: Sound the Alarm. Switch to night vision Questioning belief, question inquisition World's changing all the time. I Better change positions Ears to the curb, and all the cities listen (2x) Verse 2: Now why we letting people struggle so many years? How do the people survive on them blood, sweat, and tears? Where do we draw the line on how much pain is fair? What can I call a truth, when lies are everywhere? When will the veils lift, so that we all see clear? What happens when your race, it just all but disappears? When will our time run out, with nothing left to spare? How do I find an answer when these questions fill the air? It seem like day after day and I'm running out of breath And I'm looking for an open door within eternal quest At best, my head is out of water. One falter. Could lead to me being pulled down under and drowning altered Now and forever changed, well nothing stays the same I was born into a world obsessed with playing games Battling my failure, my dreams are my rival There's no need to ask, this is a question of survival HOOK: Sound the Alarm. Switch to night vision Questioning belief, question inquisition World's changing all the time. I Better change positions Ears to the curb, and all the cities listen (2x)

AIMA'S LYRICS: 3rd Verse: Here come the Queendom Representing Freedom See how we gon leave them Give it up am to pm Set sail. Blaze trail. Check your email For the details. Fresh females. Exhale Blow your house down with my sound. You a clown. I'm a queen from the underground with a crown I'm the talk of the town. Spirit of the city I'm the cat's meow force. Here pretty kitty Can't miss me. Gottem saying, "ooooooowie! She a better emcee than me! In my white Tee or my black shirt Beats make my body jerk, till my body hurts!" Lustre Queens make you work, make you sweat Naw, this is not a test Got you begging to be on the guest-list You guessed it. We left you breathless Just a sample of the best lyrical fineness

AIMA'S LYRICS: 2nd Verse: Something about this place that we call Earth Something in the world where we give first Back to the homes where we give birth To our children, the music, the vibe, dance and the verse Something about this place makes me want to bust Something fabulous makes me want to trust The game aint over till the fat lady sings And this is one mama aint singing a damn thing But when it comes to rapping, get you all clapping High 5 slapping, yes it's really happening Double C. R. Who don't know who dem are Came out the West to bump the boom bah We the ones best to bless your sonar Yes so fresh we done raised the bar Sooo Blast it out your stereo Bump it in the barrio O.A.K. to Tokyo This is the way it goes

AIMA'S LYRICS: 2nd Verse 1st 16 bars: These sons of men bend the souls of the greatest deities Lay waste in their wake to taste in power needlessly It's getting hot in here. whoooooo.... Like global warming Consider your environment your very last warning Don't sleep. When death creep up your streets And don't weep. When you're cheap in taking that leap Of faith. It's a disgrace the way we stay sedated And look into the face of the youth who we have fated To inherit this grin and bare it faulty attitude Take care of it by popping pills and staring at the tube You lose. And so do I. If I don't use everyday to try To move my pen and imagine that we could really tie It all together. We write the script just think Change the art to fit the part of the missing link Pull it toward the ground it back into the dust Add water to earth for your clay remold it if you must
9.
AIMA'S LYRICS: 1st Verse: Protect you with my rhyme lecture, a musical director Hit you with that nectar bass. Put some boogie in your face Come and get a taste. Wine your waist Feel embraced. Fill the space Chase the beat. Raise the heat We got you in the hot seat Take it to the streets To the steps of city hall. Breaking down the wall Aint no curtain call when these time are so severe We the pioneers of the final frontier 2nd Verse: You all gonna make me lose my mind up in here Get out of your head and let your heart reappear Shift gears. Stay clear. I'm a love engineer With no fear I use my tongue as a spear To slice thru. All those issues that we're used to Keep shut down. In the vaults. Out of view But I see you, and all that you do As myself. That's how I know that it's true
10.
AIMA'S LYRICS: 1st Verse: Cloudless skies clear the path for your task Whether good or it's bad don't nothing ever last Fluid when you do it. Anticipating the change Wanna get through this let go of the blame So many right ways yours might look strange Won't ever back track do it twice as the same It came and it went, no need to get bent On illusions of what this all could have meant 2nd Verse: Stress less. Find the lines that unwind Test of will and mind, time to leave it all behind Let go. Let flow. Journey of soul Life is the soil. You are the seed that grows Strong in what you know. Made stronger but what you don't Long is the road to be walked in faith and hope Not just to cope, but to truly overcome The everyday humdrum came to get it done

On a beach. Or on a rooftop We aint gonna stop till they call them cops Even then continuing till the rhythm drops If you got a heart still beating in your chest Know the rest. Keep your pace. Well you better catch your breath Now see. Going to be a long night when a femcee grab hold of the mic. Might not let go till you know more than half of the whole Grab hold feel yourself start to grow Fractal funk flipping simillies Silly me got you sweating so savagely I'm a freak when I speak come catch the technique Melodically unique it make your body weak And when you catch my flow it'll break your neck And now you know I cause side effects Step step step step Tell me now do you need more respect?

I'm on a track attack I bounce a rack when my girls all in a pack You can catch these raps on playback Got you wondering whats a mamaz zodiac And if you a Mack then you get thrown back But if you're sincere then you might get a snack Of. My. Intellect. What more did you expect Tell me now need more time to respect? Tell me now need more time to reflect? On these concepts that flex when I rep On these lyrics that move with my breath On this rhythm that bounce with my step Have you hit it on the right and slide to the left

The vibe she was spitting" My girls in the front moving all kinds of things and My boy in the back on their heads all spinning 4th Verse: Come and get a taste of that bass in your face Don't let it go to waste lost in space is the place To be. M.U.S. I see It all clearly and it's coming for me This is an art form that can be used to unite It doesn't really matter if your black or your white Rhythm times the motion add the wisdom to excite We do it for the love blow up your scene like dynomite

Rattle 03:29
1st Verse: Come on y'all ain't no need to fake it Let go the Ego, the Fear, & the Hatred Who's World? Our World! It's what we create it Don't let a couple of Villains go & take it Out of our hands their demands don't stand a chance For my reprimand, life spans transcendence I won't be judged & I won't be sentenced Only loved, loved in reverence These concepts, no they're not complex & what makes you think I want to hear you flex? & what makes you think you don't need respect? & what makes you think you won't get reject- Tion? Son, hun, I'm not the one Don't be calling for a little fun Don't be stalling me when I'm on the run I got music to make and things to get done! Hook: Known to Rattle Bones thru Headphones When it comes to Mics they get Blown When it comes to Herb it's Homegrown & When it comes to Words they get thrown (2x) 2nd Verse: Down to the ground we put it in the sound Love is where you're found, so look all around So many chose the path to be blinded Ideas living behind a closed mind & looking for connection but they never find it Working with rejection just so we can line it Up. Looking at our cup as half empty The way that I see it there's plenty So back to the Earth Back to the Work Back to the Hurt Back to the Search The Search for the Truth The truth is what your Worth Your life is the Proof Hook: Known to Rattle Bones thru Headphones When it comes to Mics they get Blown When it comes to Herb it's Homegrown & When it comes to Words they get thrown (2x) 3rd Verse: You heard what I said, I said what you heard I'm using the living word to move you instead Of losing this living urge to groove you these Red & Blue lights don't stop insight, Into enhanced heights Cuz some dance to fight, to break thru the beat. So take what you need, Leave the rest to the streets. Cuz the best don't defeat. My tests come complete for ways and means for me to meet. Just to eat & live. Just to spit & leap Cuz the way of my speech, is the way that I'll reach The ones who will learn, the ones who will teach The ones who will burn with desire to turn Tables, from those who can't to those able Capable of holding it down, keeping it stable Turn off the Radio and kill the Cable Know yourself beyond titles and labels Hook: Known to Rattle Bones thru Headphones When it comes to Mics they get Blown When it comes to Herb it's Homegrown & When it comes to Words they get thrown (2x)

Love 04:45
AIMA'S LYRICS: Intro: Mmmmm Yeah You know, gotta keep those dreams alive.... HOOK: I don't want to know, where we all would go If there was no love, to keep us in the flow We'd all be floating in a great blue sea No relating ships insight to carry us free (2x) 1st Verse: There is nothing undreamed of that has to do with love So take hold of the words that I'm speaking of I've seen lips saying it Seen the trips caused by this You're not really meaning it If your demeaning it Using it, as a crutch, got you leaning a bit It can be addictive when you trying to wean from it And yet, at the same time it's the milk of the mother Got no other source to it then life would surely suffer Rougher, around the edges pushed to the brink It really makes a lover, daughter, sister, stop and think The consequences of what could happen in a blink If there was no love for the world to stay linked HOOK: I don't want to know, where we all would go If there was no love, to keep us in the flow We'd all be floating in a great blue sea No relating ships insight to carry us free (2x) 2nd Verse: Without it, a challenged passion for the pad and ink Don't doubt it, we must keep the balance just to be in sync With our natural cycles and our core soul rhythms Access compassion, able to forgive them Those who would trespass on unconditional love We don't let them fall, but you help them rise above Not everyone knows what love could be nowadays Their ego, their story, standing in their own way It's all about denial, and not about the dealing It's all about the booty, and not about feeling The sweetest ache to bear, your own living distraction It's more than just a word, it's the greatest giving action HOOK: I don't want to know, where we all would go If there was no love, to keep us in the flow We'd all be floating in a great blue sea No relating ships insight to carry us free (2x)
