God Forgive Me - LDP

Verse 1: R-jay

Walking in the path of darkness on this road that's broken
All alone and hoping, feelings and thoughts unspoken
Out on the open but still grasping for air
This is for anyone who feels like no one seems to care
Keep your head up high and look into the sky
Do you see Him? The only person who sees us cry
He never left our side, ready to give us a hand then
We failed to see and just took it for granted
So my friend if you're listening, you're feeling my shoes
You got it bad or caught up, maybe feeling the blues
Don't deny His presence or reject, just let Him know
How you're really feeling, dont hold back, just let it go
Your fears put into silence, your tears He's gonna wipe it
Just say a solemn prayer, have faith and get enlightened
He's down, whatever reason and whatever the cause
Call me a prodigal son that He forgave though I got lost

Hook: Abra

Nagdadasal pero sumusuway sa payo ng Diyos
Kadalasan ay maginoo pero medyo bastos
Panay reklamo pag di bago ang damit at sapatos
Si Hesus nga nakapaa lang buhat buhat ang krus
Sa bawat kilos, galos ang tinanggap hanggang kamatayan
Kapalit ay kaligtasan sa mga kasalanan
At buhay makasarili ating pasasalamat
Sumasamba ng di tapat, Ama patawad sa lahat

Verse 2: Alex

Puzzled events got me on my knees
Praying for the Lord to forgive my sins
Distressed by discomfort from deep within
The emptiness in my soul, I'm here breathing
Continuously erupting, my wounds gleaming
With this incompetence, I'm here trying to find a meaning
Unease by my reflection and tears in the cold waters
Spread my wings so far, I can't see the boarders
Back to the bottle, green, weed, that's all that matters
Making a redefinition from the lectures and the words He taught us
I was never reluctant to the thirst of blood
Saying words that I can't barely afford
Facing the consequences 'cause my pain comes back reborn
Deception is a game I was never meant to play
The dice was supposed to have fallen and rolled away
But until today, I'm a victim of apathy
Never really showed sympathy only to these evil deeds and lies
My mind, I'm littering with no cause and no alibi
Then they ask me why, they ask what I desire
What I desire is to quench this eternal fire
So God forgive me

Hook: Abra

Kapalit ay kaligtasan sa mga kasalanan

Lyrically Deranged Poets

LDP was formed around March of 2006 by the students of Colegio San Agustin, Makati. The Lyrically Deranged Poets, R-jay, Abra and Alex, were in third year high school at that time. Originally starting out with five emcees, LDP got together during the summer to write and record rap music. Because the crew didn't have much budget and experience in the music business, they decided to buy an ordinary microphone and use free beats on the internet for their songs. Upon stepping in fourth year high school, LDP started to perform their music in CSA. One of the songs that people were fond of was God Forgive Me, which talks about one's pity upon himself for his shortcomings as a human being and how he asks God for forgiveness. Some other songs which they performed in school include They Can't, a single about love; and Suliranin, which focuses on the social problems in the Philippines with regard to the poor. LDP performed in various school events and was given more exposure during the CSA fair.

LDP entered the hip-hop scene during the summer of 2007 when they participated in The Community, a weekly gathering of hip-hop people in the Philippines in order to showcase their talents. The crew performed songs like Look Closer and Tagalog O Ingles during The Community and their music was welcomed by the people. LDP's style varies with each emcee. R-jay, formerly known as P.O.E.T.3 (Passionate Outspoken Emcee Times 3), uses a smooth flow for rapping and also sings for songs like They Can't and You Just Can't See. Abra, formerly known as 2DZ, uses a fast-paced flow mixed with a deranged rhyme scheme, and prefers to spit his lines in Tagalog. Alex, formerly known as Madbull, uses a versatile flow with deep, heartfelt lyrics and clever punch lines. Each emcee has his own distinctive flow and lyrical style; but together they form a smooth blend of hip-hop harmony. LDP not only focuses on the hip-hop aspect itself to make their music; but rather uses rap music to freely talk about the more fundamental aspects of life. LDP will be releasing their first independent album, The Project EP, before the end of 2007.

Psychopath On The Loose - LDP

INTRO 1:

The smell of blood and screams of pain

Entices those who seem insane

Detained beneath, they can't escape

From shackles and their mental state

With them alive, it only proves

That psychopaths are on the loose

And if you look them in the eye

It would be best to say good bye…

INTRO 2: Abra

LDP, FlipMusic

Psychopaths on the loose

With fanatical views

We are the Lyrically Deranged Poets

Verse 1: R-jay

We have patient number 0720024

You’re full name please?

Haha… It’s R-jay

It's the ever fantastic with flows everlasting

Blasting the mic every time I recite then go drastic-

ally hard with these bars which never settle for less

Sick, ill, retarded emcees should never mess with the best

Who's been sicker with raps, slicker with facts

And been so dope feels like you've been dealing with crack

It's that deranged poet with raps that aim towards

Advancement and order plus hater manslaughter....

Enraged with all the pressure, been caged from that depression and phase

But never will pave the way to fail, I'm seizing the day

And today is the start so let's spark up the dark

And embark in our hearts as we all do our part

To break the shackles and chains, burn the straight jackets to flames

Take all the action to blame to take away all the pain

No fake reactions or distractions let us all go insane....

Haha! 'Cause mother fucker I'm deranged

HOOK:

I'll take a life with a knife or a rifle when I fall

Deep into a state of lunacy

When I arrive Im'ma slice you, oh hi I'm a psycho!

And I don’t really know what else to be

I got a psyche that's likely to guide me to blindly

Strangle you with no reason at all

From every angle, I'll mangle, dismantle and maul

You 'cause I don't think I'm normal anymore

VERSE 2: Abra

Step forward patient 071057

Name please? Abra

Why’d you kill all those people?

'Cause I’m a mother fucking

Psychopath on the loose, detained temporarily

My temper is insanity-based with no morality

Forever be emphatically faced with no capacity

To rationally distinguish reality from profanity

The agony backing me is a fact to be reckoned with

Malevolence sedatives have a negative side-effect

My provocative eloquence, coupled with arrogance is

Evidence enough to get in trouble with parameds

The asylum is my labyrinth, Im'ma rap in it

I'm the devil's advocate, trapped within a cabinet

You can call me Abra shit! I don’t know what's happening

'Cause everything I think about is practically inaccurate

I’m back again with a macabre tactic

Im'ma stop you from living like a contraceptive

Fucking schizophrenic, with a thirst for blood

Should've dispersed first right before my verse begun

HOOK:

I'll take a life with a knife or a rifle when I fall

Deep into a state of lunacy

When I arrive Im'ma slice you, oh hi I'm a psycho!

And I don’t really know what else to be

I got a psyche that's likely to guide me to blindly

Strangle you with no reason at all

From every angle, I'll mangle, dismantle and maul

You 'cause I don't think I'm normal anymore

VERSE 3: Alex

Releasing patient from maximum security

Solitary confinement… Please state your name

The fuck you care?

Metamophorical diabolical chain of reaction

See me in the dark, I'll make you change your reaction

Ready, set, action, the court is in order....

Facing federal charges for my mental disorder

First degree murder, double homicide

Mass manslaughter, call it genocide

Bona fide psycho loco, look me in the eye, I'll put you up in a chokehold

Strangulation to cure the aggravation

Made all my shrinks change their occupation

I’m strange, deranged, insane in the brain

I don't make it rain, make it burn like propane

A sinister minister, drop down before I administer

A whip ass canister on Christmas and on Easter

Halloween's my favorite though, 'cause I bring presents like Santa, haha hohoho

HOOK:

I'll take a life with a knife or a rifle when I fall

Deep into a state of lunacy

When I arrive Im'ma slice you, oh hi I'm a psycho!

And I don’t really know what else to be

I got a psyche that's likely to guide me to blindly

Strangle you with no reason at all

From every angle, I'll mangle, dismantle and maul

You 'cause I don't think I'm normal anymore

OUTRO:

I see all evil

All the evil in the world...

Psychopaths escaping...
