I've sworn myself to the power of word Take a vow /Amplify/ Let the voices be heard Immortalized in a track/ the song is the map And when we are gone/ the music lives on 
 Power in my tongue, swift like a sword I am eye, a samurai shifting toward swiftly aboard, sicker strictly for war I solemly swear to bear witness accord Come aboard choose your weapon Whether word or sword Time is now step forward No we can’t afford Another life lost /the cost In the name of the cross Holy in my power Standing firm / heart crossed 
 The power of now vowing only to the present Effortless reverence Of my effervescence Its just a preference, call it our thing But bar for bar I spar it scouring Written in my flesh /Memory access Ancestors dream/ remember me yes? Im the lock to your Skeleton key Crack codes/spit charge/hacking everything 
 Withdrawls from my memory bank, auxiliary tank Exalting My glimmering fate Wait my exemplary taste say my coat of arms Could disarm all your sensory space The old guard armored hard With a million scars Sharp mind / tempered grind Wielding knives & bars Swift act/ liberate / waging war on hate Join the cause /find your voice / & initiate I've sworn myself to the power of word Take a vow /Amplify/ Let the voices be heard Immortalized in a track/ the song is the map And when we are gone/ the music lives on

You tricked me with your lies Right to my face, posed as a man, Just a wolf in disguise. You played me with your games Made me the fool, you broke all the rules Not an ounce of shame I dunno why you tell these lies Wreckless words to make me cry And the whole time, the devil in your smile. Your scheme, it is a fool-proof plan Use up your friends, make no amends, It's all just a scam. I gave you trust, was a friend, showed you love You took my coin, tried my friends, fucked me up Paid your rent, no consent, like getting robbed without a gun I dunno why you tell these lies Can't believe I even tried You ain't no friend, can't defend, This is a crime I dunno know why you play these games With others lives, it's such a shame Stabbed me right in the back, No remorse, so much hurt and pain. I just can't make any sense of all this mess Strung me along, you did me wrong Choked by burden, can't barely catch my breath You stole, you lied, mistreated, I cried Tried to talk, but you walked away from your best friend Alone in the end, no one cares, know you're scared, Worth revenge? No, instead I just THROW MY HANDS IN THE AIR! Why you gotta lie?(whispers) I dunno know why you tell these lies Can't believe you made me cry And the whole time, the devil in your smile I dunno why you tell these lies Can't believe you made me cry And the whole time, you did it with a smile I dunno why You tell these lies With no remorse, no care This shit, it is a crime I dunno know why you play these games With others lives, it's such a shame Stabbed me right in the back, No remorse, so much hurt and pain.

about

Featuring 7 songs reimagined from the debut album by Cosa Nostra Strings.
This album started out as an idea to ask some of our producer friends to make some simple remixes of a few of the songs from the Cosa Nostra Strings self-titled album. What ended up happening is a full album of "Reimagined" works in wildly different styles. We're releasing 7 of these here on our Remixes album and 2 of the others will be released on other upcoming Jazz Mafia releases.
