congealedmeat An eclectic mix of songs from Vancouver. "Shit Gets Real" by Technition Cardinal is my favorite of the tracks. I also really enjoy "Death's Door" by Iceman. "I Am Addiction" by D'Skyz is a stark look at the path to and effects of addiction that hits me in the feelings.

Tangent Duo's "Human State" is a masterpiece. It makes me feel weird :D

"Business and music don't mix!" from the album description is too true. So many great artists destroyed by the machine. Favorite track: Shit Gets Real.

This next song is dedicated to every crooked cop, and every sky train flunky who ever got in my way. Got the shoes, the booze, the guns, the weed, the need to make a motherfucker bleed like milk. Rolling off the spot the bitch got shot Shit went down, I kid you not Didn’t want to kill her but I knew I had to hurt her. It’s a mutherfucking drug waaaaaaarrrrr It’s a mutherfucking… Nothing's been the same since war’s being declared Chicken-shit cops turning yellow running scared. Everybody’s driving the ring road impaired. You better watch your ass ‘cause no one's getting spared. There’s violence at the rock shop, down at the cop shop The lights are gone red but it ain't ever gonna stop. Because the rocks are on the street, they're rolling through Whalley Leaving home alone would be a foolish man’s folly. Unless you're dealing, buying, smokin’, shootin’ smack or only cokin’ You better stay at home unless your nose gets broken. Fire up the pipe but you better bring a nine ‘Cause being unprotected is the only fucking crime… In Whalley. Fuck the peace, fuck the peace. Fuck ‘em! It’s a mutherfucking… Got the shoes, the booze, the guns, the weed, the need To make a motherfucker bleed like milk. Rolling off the spot the bitch got shot Shit went down, I kid you not Didn’t want to kill her but I new I had to hurt her. The battlefield is bloody and the concrete’s turning red ‘Cause another casualty got shot in the crackhead. The lines are being drawn ‘round the body on the lawn When the shit goes down what side you gonna be on? White trash jock, you better buy a glock ‘Cause the crackhead militia are the new police on your block. They're always getting stronger, their reach is getting longer You can always get a tenner from the local crack monger. The basie crack rock is the purest form of blood lust They’re fighting for the right to deal the shit in front of Stardust. The rockers are rollin’, the cadaver’s gettin’ stolen Yo the money's in his hand the crack cocaine is in his colon. The skrilla, the brilla and the pipe made of glass Yo the steroid gorilla’s going to grill your fuckin’ ass. If you step out of line or you look the wrong way ‘Cause in the crack war for Whalley everybody's got to pay B. Sorry…

Shit get’s real. Ya’ all that was hard, like, Ya’ all that I know is real. My security, I’m living insecurity. I’m fearing me, I’ll gulp wearily. Nah I’m just kidding, liquor ain’t steering me. Maybe ADHD got me a little anxious. Ah, if you don’t like my shit, Then you can fuck off with your fake ass. Look at my life, I’m driven, just kidding, Happy as long as I’m spitting. Damn, I’m challenged, I’m chemically imbalanced; A whole plate full of grateful, Mischievous, stupendous, arrested, I exploded. Woke up in a jail cell loaded. Yup, yup, looking all rested, Get over it. Yippie! I guess I’m not claustrophobic. Shit get’s real. Ya’ all that was hard, like, Ya’ all that I know is real. Many years ago, when I used to be a kid. Never did what I was told, never told what I did. Now I’m living inside this penitentiary, Should have listened to my elders, Maybe, I’d be free. But I’m not going to whine, ‘cause I know that I’ll do the time. Tick tock and do my time, as I’m kicking a dope rhyme. In my mind I’ve got freedom, in my heart I’ve got pain. The demons in my brain are trying to drive me insane, But I’m never shakin’ it rough, because my attitude is tough, Coming off the streets, yeah, it’s rough… Shit get’s real. Ya’ all that was hard, like, Ya’ all that I know is real. I’m used to abuse, I proved that I’m proof. I’m using a ruse to confuse all them fools. I stimulate great debate, amongst all the fools with the wrong rational. I still break rules. I’m used to confusion. I’m used to being used, and I’m used to black eyes, broken bones, and a brusin’. I’m used to this mission. I search for what’s missing. I’m used to the dark road that leads back to prison. I’m used to game, getting used to the pain. I’m used to maintain only tears in rain. I’m used to bein’ dissed, I’m used to bein’ pissed. I’m used to broken knuckles on both of my fists. I’m used to being poor, sleeping on the floor. I’m used to being woken up and thrown out the door. I’m used to just livin’ but not living life. I’m used to existing and not caring why. I’m was used to the glass, pipe full of crack, accumulating resin and pushin’ Brillo back. I’m used to the streets, used to being tweaked, Used to no sleep for at least two weeks; now clean. I’m used to being frozen, out there with the bros and, Chillin’ outside conversatin’ with the bros and, I was used to my tent and not paying rent. Having to grind for my money, when it was already spent. I was used to the nights, used to a fight. Tweaked on everything, goin’ hard all night, I’m used to broke days, trying to get paid. Feeling lost and hopeless, ‘Till I always found my way. Shit get’s real. Ya’ all that was hard, like, Ya’ all that I know is real. As I walk down my street at night, I’m overwhelmed by the pain, I… As I walk down my street at night, I’m overwhelmed by the pain, I…

Sometimes it’s Good to rise up early and chant To move away from negativity To say positive To stay bless Keep your mind free with no stress It’s be been so long I wanna stand and sing it out strong Persistence morals and goals We got no poles to take away no souls Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun (Run to the east the east you know…for real) Ancient tradition for all my people have to sing along (Yeah) I prefer be out in the east I don’t want no mark of the beast ( hear what we have to do) (You have to) Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun (You have to pack up and run) (Say) Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun I’m talking ancient tradition We’re man and woman have to live along Natural out good Eating blessed, staying bless good (Health and strength) (Here what we have to do) Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun (Run away) Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun Doesn’t matter what nationality or creed We all is one breed Stay focus meditation And understand we’re we come From Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun But if you look to the east there is a coming of a king liberation they have to free us up all in the lands Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun (Listen to me) Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun So I decide to sing along Spread a positive vibration All the players of instruments In the gates of Zion (So) Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun (Run quick) Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun I want everybody come along Cause We got message to send along (You know) Everybody catching a vibe It’s like a peaceful meditation (Aye) That’s why I’m due to drop the message I want everybody sing along Run away Run away Run away From the land of the setting sun (Yeah)

Here's a song about six billion better ways to spend six billion dollars. This five ring elitist corporate shit show has wasted six billion dollars and counting. For what? What do we have to show for it? Poverty, homelessness, exploitation, oppression, destruction of civil liberties, rights and basic freedoms. We can think of six billion better ways to waste six billion dollars. Proper health care for everyone, education, affordable housing, and social programs would be a start. We will not stand for this corporate shit show on stolen native land, not while people live in poverty, not while children are starving. Not while jobs are disappearing at the hand of greedy corporate outsourcing. Being homeless is a crime! Not while our civil liberties, basic rights and freedoms are being stripped away and sold off to the highest bidder This is just the beginning over of six billions better ways to waste over six billion dollars. Six billion better ways to waste six billion dollars. Six billion better ways to waste six billion dollars. Six billion better ways to waste six billion dollars We will not stand for this Olympic shit show on stolen native land not while people live in poverty, not while children are starving, not while jobs are disappearing at the hand of greedy corporate outsourcing. Being homeless is a crime! Not well our civil liberties, basic rights and freedoms are being stripped away and sold off to the highest bidder. Tonight we take back our rights. Tonight we take back our streets. Tonight we call for convergence and unity as we stand together and piss on the status quo.

Welcome to a world unreal Where everything is made of steel, And bolted to a concrete floor, And locked behind an iron door. This is what they call my cell, Where all the ghosts keep secrets well. My eyes will stare with burning fire, When I look up at the razor wire. Can you take me? Can you take me to the other side? Take me. And show me where the angels fly... It almost feels like yesterday, A young man threw his life away. Now 13 years have passed me by, I only wish I could've said goodbye. Can you take me? Can you take me to the other side? Take me. And show me where the angels fly. This is where the sinners dwell, Remembered for the souls they sell. They'll con you, scam you, cheat you blind, Just like the crazy world I left outside. Can you take me? Can you take me to the other side? Take me. And show me where the angels fly. Take me, And I will be there by your side. They will never break me until I die. I try to find some peace of mind, But never seem to find the time...

Fadin' fast Feeling drained Darkness reigns again Bad moon rising Death swoops down Hurtling to seal my doom Despair in the air Fear everywhere Soul's turning black Through hell and back Near dying, it's cold grip terrifying Freezing me to the death's door Fentanyl kills Soulless creatures Depressing, frozen, dreary Chilling bleak and eerie Cemetery's arising The undead plaguing the living Despair in the air Fear everywhere Soul's turning black Through hell and back Near dying, it's cold grip terrifying Bringing me to my death's door Frozen to my death's door Walls closing Eyes rolling Deep breathing Head to toe As life diminishes Despair in the air Fear everywhere Soul's turning black Through hell and back Near dying, it's cold grip terrifying Bringing me to Despair in the air Fear everywhere Soul's turning black Through hell and back Near dying, it's cold grip terrifying Welcoming me to my death's door Bringing me to my death's door Still leading to my death's door Every year, hundreds and hundreds die of fentanyl overdoses Benzos, crystal meth, and heroin So every day, never use alone Be safe, and watch out for each other 'Cause you never know When you might come to Deaths Door Despair in the air Fear everywhere Soul's turning black Through hell and back Near dying, it's cold grip terrifying Bringin' me to Despair in the air Fear everywhere Soul's turning black Through hell and back Near dying, it's cold grip terrifying Welcoming me to my death's door Bringing me to my death's door Freezing me to my death's door Still leading to my death's door My final fentanyl stricken death's door

This isn't what I thought you meant When you said there were fields of flowers But I guess you fit your life in Fit it right in Till the voice breaks and the message takes and whatever way we push this now its gonna make see the conquered states religious mace and your face when you lie when you lie when you lie for this stupid race against the human state You got another way of living Pushing steel into the sky Galaxies before and we've landed before cried, watched you die while they used your lives Till the voice breaks and the message takes and whatever way we push it now its gonna make you see the conquered states religious mace and your face when you lie when you lie when you lie for this stupid race against the human state This isn't what |I thought you meant When you called it a golden city But I guess you'd fit the price in Fit it right in

My Sister don't like jazz She’s rockin' with the blues Look at little sister go Ain't nobody’s business you do My Brother, he tells me to Pack a Million dollars In an old suit case, Crazy coz you cant take it with you Looka here, I did not say I was a millionaire Google moogly, whiskey Wine women song Better show respect He’s on the road again, Going down Slow and easy That old six string He’ll buy his guitar a ring Elaine lost her panties again He’s Rocking the blues In a small town hall Live streams don't pay the bills Beer and taco express I’m crying out Jesus I stay home, Don't wanna Dust his broom After weeks in the desert Mirage on the cross roads I bet he saw Jesus and the Enemy On his shoulder My Sister don't like jazz Coz I’m living with the blues My Brother don't like jazz Coz I’m living in my truth

about

100 Block Rock 2: All sounds made by the community. It sums up a lot of people's feelings about music. It ain't recording studios or instruments. It's sounds that care, by people who care. Most people concerned with the music business are bored with commercial output, but it makes money so commerciality exists. We think that's a load of bollocks, really, 'cause music can be made very cheaply and, well, in lots of different ways and shouldn't end up the same way every time. Business and music don't mix!
