Do you remember ?
 

The Last Emperor

Do You Remember?


At times, I feel old like I'm going out of style
So I turn down the music on my FM dial
I beg of you to come and listen for a while
And look at this wonderful world through the eyes of a child
This is my chance to escape today
And I don't want to see my dreams chased away
Inside the palace gates is where I stay
'Cause the world is no longer a safe place to play
Its like the story of the little wooden boy
Who wanted to live the life that every child should enjoy
I heard it once of twice before
The world is yours for you to explore
I heard my calling as a child and I answered it
When I grow up and finally get my chance to fit
I'll be the sort of man you can't forget
I used to stair up at the sky on my camping trips
In this quiet night of quiet stars
Of quiet chords on my guitar
Kids out there, I know it might be hard
But I realize how alive you are

CHORUS
One day I'll travel from the East to the West
And tap into the hidden strength that all men possess
I'll always be young, see a young mind is fresh
And its clear my memories will one day disappear unless

Do you remember?
Yes I remember
Do you remember?

Some say the price of life has a costly amount
When it comes to fights, I might've lost me a bout
But I've never lost my head 'cause that would cost me a scalp
So when my heart became cold like the Austrian Alps
I used to use my aggression, just to hurt mics
In '86 my whole crew was in to dirt bikes
Like the GT Predator or a Mongoose
Listen as I ride the rhythm and let the rhymes loose
This is what makes my life so real
I'll take my chances and spin the wheel
I can't wait to grow up so I'll know the deal
But right now I'm a child and this is how I feel
My younger days were sort of tragic despite
I learned to unify the pen and pad with the mic
I might need a little magic tonight
'Cause to me imagination is the fabric of life
My rhymes helped me many times grow'n up
Before keep'n it real, all the days are blow'n up
I put on shows in my room- nobody show'n up
I'm just a little guy now, but when I'm old enough

CHORUS

That was my train of thought

I thought that was the song by black eyed peas eek:

DESTROY THE EMO ATTITUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Emo is alright...anything is better then that gothic black metal shit....or whatever type of music Slipknot does

[NP: Naveed - OLP]

EMO IS NOT ALRIGHT. Other than that I completely agree with you.[/quote]

What's EMO?!

jimmy eat world is emo...thats all I know...I really don't know what this 'attitude' is

Some attack at Alternative music? Well, thats alright...Cause that Is the only Jimmy Eat World song I have......And I have 2,000 Mp3s....1,800 of those are Rap/Hiphop....The other 200 hundered consist of....Frank Sinatra, Faith no More, Pearl Jam, Shootyz Groove, Saliva, Weezer...And a number of other artists whom i am forgetting.....What are ya gonna do?

When they come for you...bad boys bad boys, whacha gonna do? whacha gonna do when they come for you...

emo=sweater vest wearin, vulcan haircut, indie rock wannabe, a ton of these fags live in Boston, uh, uh, sensitive, weeping, whining, self-loathing...did i forget anything Korvac.....Slipknot isnt Black Metal. That is Nu-Metal....big corporations latest cash cow...this include Limp triscuit, pick the Korn out of my shit, System of a Clown, Drown, and the 5000 other bands that sound the same, tune the guitars the same, use the same lame ass Kiss gimicks. REAL MEN LISTEN TO SWEDISH CRUST PUNK AND GRINDCORE......or atleast men with a semblence of class....tastefully done mwah: ed: evil: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo:

Real Emo is not that "sooky, sweater wearing, nerd looking, love story" base that has been labelled as being "Emo". Real Emo is derived from the early 80's style of Hardcore Punk. Emo is a "post version" of Hardcore (but slower) and was started by bands like Embrace, Rites of Spring, Fugazi, 7 Seconds, so on so on. If you know who Ian Mackaye is, then you know what I'm talking about.

The Emo you are talking about with its constant love lyrics and nerdy stereotype is just the more widely used term of "Emo". Emo is emotional, and any Hardcore band that sings from their heart with true and meaningful lyrics is in one way or another, emotional.

I like "Emo". Texas is the Reason are one of my favourite bands, they were a group of guys from the Hardcore scene who used many forms of music to inspire them. They created an emotional sound with terrific lyrics combined with the more mainstream pop sound, but were, when it's all said and done, still very "underground".

Dont get me wrong, I love Grindcore and Powerviolence, 80's Hardcore, Straight Edge Hardcore (I used to be Straight Edge), Thrash, Metalcore, but I'm not going to look down on someone because of the music they listen too. I'm not a "scenster" anymore. I dont go to shows, I rarely buy cd's or records anymore, but I still love the music that changed my life (Hardcore).
Wintersforge, who are you to call the shots on what "real men" should listen too ?? Thats another weakness of the "scene" and another reason I decided to take me leave. The arrogance and foul attitude is quite amazing.

Your damn right they can. oOo:

wookie im not turnin my nose down on anyone. its a bad ugly long inside joke between Korvac and myself. ive been rockin out to punk and metal since 81...harken back to the Discharge/Bad Brains/Government issue days...i live near DC so ive had my fill of ian Mackeye and crew...i could care less what peeps listen to as long as its not on my turntable or record collection i dont care....

PS-KORVAC LOVES NEW FOUND GLORY.......

jesus christ, you're telling me.

SOOOO many of them in southie and charlestown.

WintersForge loves The Casket Lottery.

I thought punk rock was all about judging other people. Anyway I have no problem with some of the bands that started the whole emo thing like Dag Nasty, Fugazi, you know the old school stuff. But what EMO has become today is blight on music, it is an offense to my hearing and sight. Just like NU-METAL, RAP-METAL, and NELLY is needs to be crushed. Down with sweater vests, up with crusty swedish punks that don't shower. All praise the mighty GODSTOMPER.

Korvac-remember when i bought that caskey lottery 7 inch.."featuring members of Coalesce".....man what a bummer....*gets in car and takes St. Paul street exit and tosses Casket Lottery 7 inch out the window. It lands next to The Gathering ep....

-Yup gotta love Fugazi and DN....hell i can get down with some Husker Du as well. But emo has become a sore (throat) on the already cankerous punk scene. Hey if a white belt wearin, vulcan lookin hermaphodite wants to rock out to Sunny day real Estate...great..but im gonna go Lemmy from Motorhead on ya.....

SAVE ME JEEEEEBUS! How did I miss this one?! No refrences to me?!!@?!?! Texas ownz j00 winters (way to go wook). Seriously though, I'm going to go put on some chuck taylors and cry for a while.

The strokes own u hard core because its HARD TO EXPLAIN!

I hate Nelly. I hate his ass-face.

But yet I love rap.
