lyrics
Twilight Zone (2007)
Deborah D. Johnson

Hook:
Just chillin in the twilight zone, just chillin in the twilight zone
Working it out in the twilight zone, coming out of the twilight zone

Verse
Once upon a time (quite a while ago)
I had a dream; I went to go chase it.
It was a scream and I went buck wild.
I got the style to make the crowd wild.
Why take half when I can go the whole mile.

Yo producer, that’s me,
breaking off something proper.
Settin the pace for the hip-hop race.
Starting my rhyme off good with a bass.

I’m paying dues, I don’t intend to lose.
Ain’t no rule -- saying I can’t groove.
Stop fussin and get with the program.
I want you to know just who I am.

It’s not the quantity of the lyricals,
it’s the quality of the parables;
you’re not alone when living in the twilight zone.

Hook:
Just chillin in the twilight zone, just chillin in the twilight zone

Verse:
I got a rap with dope lyrics in it;
a funky beat you say that granny’s really slammin.
So now you’re rockin you say that I’m shockin.
Are you surprised the beat is jammin.

Get with the real stuff; hang tuff
Tell illusion goodbye.
Peep it all through the third eye
For example, I could be a sample
But I ain’t going out without a fight
No not me, but a sell out might

I’m getting ruff, getting raw on my time
So let me tell you about it in my rhyme
I move on ‘cause the game ain’t true
And say boldly let me thru

But I don’t sweat it
I’m putting mine in
Chillin out, I have seen the light
No longer do I waste my time
I’ve got the five virtues of the mind

Discrimination and forgiveness
With contentment and un-attachment
Lead me on to humility; It’s my responsibility
Coming out of the twilight zone
Yea, coming out the twilight zone

Hook:
Just chillin in the twilight zone, just chillin in the twilight zone

Verse
Moving right along tell me what’s the reason
Some only talk about drugs and destruction
Instead of building a firm foundation
My brothers and sisters deceived by greed
Do you really care to see the dealers off the street?

Attached to the five passions of the mind
Wasting much precious time
Lust, anger, greed, and attachment
And vanity losing all sanity
When you’re living in the twilight zone

Hook:
Just chillin in the twilight zone, just chillin in the twilight zone

Verse
Comin correct with a beat that’s vicious
I call it dope, you call it delicious
I got my mike, my rhyme and a dime
The words are flowin; you know I can’t stop
So I just keep on going
And when you’re not very dizzy
That’s the time for us to get busy

My people, my people, my people
Stand tall like a steeple
Always listening just because
The man wants his two cents in
Stirring up much confusion
Sitting there without a clue
Saying hey, I choose you

Haha, it amaze me but still kinda crazy
He can’t rhyme, he can’t even faze me
I’m putting work in for mine
And I’ve shown, I’m bad to the bone
Attack the mike like a thief in the night
My rhymes soar like an eagle in flight

Now if you don’t understand this
I know that you may want to dis this
But that’s okay for today
How can I miss you when you won’t go away
Leave me alone ‘cause you’ve been shown
I’ve got my own twilight zone

Hook:
Yea living in the twilight zone; Come out of the twilight zone
Just chillin in the twilight zone, just chillin in the twilight zone
Working it out in the twilight zone
Coming out of the twilight zone
Ye-ah
