1. RHYME ANIMAL

Get Funky!

Who woulda guessed
We'd be doin' it like this
Scandalous
For all the brothers who can't handle this
Thousand Foot takin' up mad space
Too much so that we could wipe out
We got that classic touch
Nothin' changed
Still representing the same, boy
You betcha
The intellectual
It's all about smooth texture
We can be like wanna get it on quick
Slick, When the riff hits yah
Eardrum, and the word sticks
Like think quick
When in doubt who you goin to?
Who you owin' to
On the other end
Who's gonna be your friend?
Just a little something to think about, no doubt
Thousand 'bout to let the rhyme animal out
We be rockin' on till dawn and back again
When you here the jam turn the volume back up to ten
I love music and
Can't imagine bein' here without it
Turn it up so your neighbors all hear about it!

Thousand Foot with the sound to move yah
We got the rhythm that'll row right through yah
Throw your hands up if the music soothes yah
We rock on like a power booster
Thousand Foot with the sound to move yah
We got the rhythm that'll run right through yah
We raise the roof, never standin' still
C'mon And make way, for the rhyme animal.. (2x)

Well it's the second verse and
No need for rehearsin'
I be the rhyme animal
Live and in person
Wanna give a shout to all the real hip hoppers
Who come to all of our shows, and represent proper
Turning to those who understand what thousand foot do
Cause it ain't entirely easy
In this industry
To pick up a mic and start rappin'
And put on guitar straps and start singing
We'll be like, 'we're happy singin'
Yo we just can't get the hang of it
Well it really is cause you can't understand the slang of it
So what if a rock band was to throw in a few
Ask a few, rascals jumpin' around
Here's some finger snaps, said uh..
If you still don't get it man, Forget it
By the time you accept us we'll be makin' a new record
It's all good tho
It don't really matter
The Krutch don't care
We down for whatever

Yo everybody swing
Listen to the guitar sing, check it..

Break down, come on!


2. BROTHER JOHN

I saw this child who never smiled
I told him that's no way to live your life
I saw him kneel down on his knees
As he said please, please, please
It's as if I could see inside his mind
And it reminded me of mine
And it became clear that he belonged here
And he promised me he'd try

If only you could have been there
With me and my brother John
We tried so hard not to carry on
But it was so obvious to everyone who was around
Let me know if you see him around
Let me know if you see him downtown

I know there is something better than this
I know there is
There's gotta be
I know there is something better than this
I know there is
There's gotta be
I know there

Is a place where I can just hang out
With the friends who I brang out
We can have some laughs smile and drink and have a good time
With all the people we get
Who I could never forget
La la, la la la la la la
Lotsa things that I would like to say
To you in your troubled state
But it's so hard when you're so good at keeping it to yourself
And wait till the sun comes up in the morning
If you come back we'll find a place for you

I saw this child who never smiled

3. SMALL TOWN

I heard of a place not too far from here
It's handing out answers about why we are here
And it's a small town in a small world
And the congregation's small too
But somehow I think they're telling the truth
And in the same small town there is a girl
She's a good looker but she's mad at the world
And she's wondering about tomorrow and why she's here
She's sick and tired of using her sleeves to wipe her tears

And oh oh
You can tell by the look that's in her eyes
She's not that well
She's wishing someone would close their eyes
And picture this for just a moment to theirself

And oh, at least that's what they say
And at least that's what they
That's what they say, that's what they say
At least that's what they say

She sits alone, she's a re-run queen
The sun shines through her window
Enough to make out her figurine
The neighbors look at her strange
'Cause she's lived there her whole life
And they still don't know her name
She likes to keep to herself
'Cause she can't find nobody else

And oh oh
You can tell by the look that's in her eyes
She's not that well
She's wishing someone would close their eyes
And picture this for just a moment to theirself

And oh, at least that's what they say, yeah
That's what they say, that's what they say
And at least that's what they say, yeah
Yeah, yeah
What they say
What they say
What they say
What they say
I don't care
What they say
What they say
What they say
What they say
I don't care
What they say
What they say
What they say
What they say
I don't care
Nooo

She wanders through the town
To find this place she's heard about
Thinking maybe they can figure out what's wrong
And oh, they greet her with a smile
Saying they've been waiting for quite some while
Just to let her know she's worth more than she's ever dreamed of
And her heart opens wide
And for the first time in her life
She feels the touch of Jesus deep inside
And oh, she wonders what went wrong
In a town where nothing's going on
And thinks of all the others that she knows

And she said
And she said
And she said
And she said
And she said
And she said
And she said
And she said
And she said
Wanna nee nah nana ney
Wanna nee nah nana ney
Wanna nee nah nana ney
Wanna nee nah nana ney
Wanna nee nah nana ney
Wanna nee nah nana ney
Wanna nee nah nana ney
No no, no no
No no, no no
No

She wanders through the town
To find this place she's heard about
Thinking maybe they can figure out what's wrong
And oh, they greet her with a smile
Saying they've been waiting for quite some while
Just to let her know she's worth more than she's ever dreamed of


4. LIFT IT

In my temptation to walk away
And through the endless troubled days
There's a hundred million ways
For me to release Your praise
And by and by, through the tears
And things You've taught me through the years
My whole life was designed by You
I'll never know anyone half as true

Lift it up, I lift it up
Lift it up so You can see
Lift it up, I lift it up
Lift it up from inside of me
Lift it up, I lift it up
Lift it up so You can see
Lift it up, I lift it up

So I lift it
I lift it up to You
And I'll never forget the times that we've been through
So I lift it
I said I lift it up to You
And I surrender all of me
To You, to You, to You
Everything I'll ever be
To You, to You, to You
I surrender all of me

In my temptation to walk away
And through the endless troubled days
There's a hundred million ways

I'll never know anyone half as true

Lift it up, I lift it up
Lift it up so You can see

Yeah-eh


5. SET IT OFF

To all the people in the house tonight
Can ya feel it?
To those who live under the street lights at night
Can ya feel it?
Check this out
Were about to set this off
Here come the drums

When I let loose
I come out blazin'
I maintain mannin' all stations
Fully prepared for all situations
We blow tracks like shrapnel, with the rap skill
Shoot to kill, not for thrills, I got an iron will
That's the sound we make, no mistake keep the floor warm
From town to town and state to state
Hey yo, we rock da set like an earthquake
Holdin' tight to my two-edged sword
Strapped to my knight boots
We bump tracks like F-15's the flavors mean
And hit ya like lightning when it flows through my brain stream
Ready to fit the script twice when I get nice
Equally precise, hits you open like head lice
This time around we're here to let it be known
Thousand Foot be the kings of this microphone
This time around we're hear to let it be known
Thousand Foot be the kings of this microphone now

Out to all the people in the house tonight
We're gonna keep on rockin' 'till the broad daylight
So just listen to the sounds comin' through this mic
We're gonna do this right, do this right

Fire it up like NASA
Rockin' it to ya'll, ghetto blaster
You're quick we're faster
We got the skills to out last ya
My mentality stays open
And if everything's cool
I'm hopin'
To leave this microphone smokin'..
Hope your ready
My whole team can rock steady
Makin' noise with my boys
And watchin' out for poison
My main objective is to stand for what I believe
Maybe hear the sounds of the guillotine
We drop, hit, electrify
And to all the weak writers you're the next in line
Here one minute and now we're gone
Ready to spawn
Used to go on and on
But now we just drop bombs
This time around we're here to let it be known
Thousand Foot be the kings of this microphone
This time around we're hear to let it be known
Thousand Foot be the kings of this microphone now

Just keep on rockin' and don't stop
Keep rockin' and don't stop
Just keep on rockin' and don't stop
Keep rockin' and don't stop


6. BREATHER

When the question never set before me
Can I feel it out once more
You are my full ambition
I walked on water
I'm sick of talking now

I want You by my side
So close that I can feel You breathing
I won't turn my head, be misguided
I need a breather

You take my breath away
You take my breath away [2x]

Stay here just enough to catch me when I'm falling

You fill me up just like a big balloon of helium
Can't get enough I want some more come on and fill me up
When I'm with You there ain't no other place I'd rather be
I just open up and receive Him
and He set me free


7. SWEET UNKNOWN

You were someone who I could talk to
If I wanted to
You're one of a kind
If one of a kind means
That you were the only one
And I really don't even think you see
All the things you've done for me
And I will never forget as long as I live
And even after I'm gone
'Cause then I'll be with you

You never left me alone
My sweet unknown
So sweet, you're so unknown
You could see right through me
Sweet unknown
Sweet unknown
Sweet unknown
Sweet unknown

You were someone who I could talk to
If I wanted to
You're one of a kind
If one of a kind means
That you are the only one
And I don't even think you see
All the things you've done for me
And I will never forget as long as I live
And even after I'm gone
'Cause then I'll be with you

You never left me alone
My sweet unknown
So sweet, you're so unknown
You could see right through me
Sweet unknown
Sweet unknown

You sent your angels to watch over me
And I feel them
I never wanted to be further away
From the length of your arms
Show and tell is caving in
These angry feelings from within
Hold me tight and don't let go of my hand
Promise me so
Promise me so
Promise me so


8. SUNSHYNE

Back to attack like mortal combat
Knockin 'em flat with contact
On site, (passing others by strong direction)
We must evade this infection
Thousand foot, got my back to protection
Strong in every never-been-down road
We never been off of it, can't get enough of it
I'm out-spoken, in case ya didn't notice
I'm all about telling lost souls that need to know this
My sound's more (rap than the crib)
Me, myself and my team rocks through the Ford
Like a 7/11, all day all night
Our God we boast hard
On the reel
Represent my King and my God
Got to get it get it
Don't forget it
Got the (curves) of a low B
If ya let it
That's the sound that's mean, extreme
You trip with me and my team
I'll show you what I mean

I've been waiting so long
To get where I'm going
In the sunshine of Your love

We back to bring it, and got the whole town swinging
Off the vibes that'll make you realize when you listen to the
We obviously not the record best
You can give it days more than anyone waits to play it
On this microphone I wanna make known
There ain't nothing but weirdness in this vocal tone
In the kid's car in the stereo
Or in ya CD players, tape deck and home stereo
Break down the system
I shot once but I missed 'em
You think I'm a freak, but you never listen
You want plastic Thousand Foot so fast
That Krutch the new made-for-plastic we everlasting
So I turn the volume up to ten again
Just to let 'em know
We'll never let 'em in
Break the mold when I explode into your eardrum
If you want it come and get some

I've been waiting so long
To get where I'm going
In the sunshine of Your love


9. MOMENT OF THE DAY

The hurt is washed away
But still here I am
In the middle of it all
With heavy hands
And I try so hard, yeah
Just to leave behind me
All the chains that bind me

Won't back down
Won't turn my head around
Quick take a recess
Oops, take another breath
Guess who, whose you, better take another clue
