CHOTTO GHETTO
WALK IS GODLIKE

California progressive hardcore band Chotto Ghetto is the only band that can be called "progressive hardcore" who are not going to make you want to go home and drink a bottle of cyanide. Maybe excluding the Bad Brains, but instead of laying down on the drum riser and rubbing cocaine on their gums, Chotto Ghetto blaze through their live sets with intense fury. Their second Quote Unquote release expands their palette with ambient soundscapes, sharp time shifts and even forays into minimalism before ripping yr fucking head off.

Well ooh I'm getting louder now Im getting stronger now with the drug town breakdown

So do junk today

And how can you take
lets think about tomorrow
from a dealers plate

Find Your Fangs

In a time and place never thought things would happen to me
never thought that I'd care but I see that your there
with my thoughts and some drops inner peace will be shared

Well ooh I'm feeling tongue tied
The Strength thats from the outside
the molder new a liar
the liar was her lover

I got a question and Im thinking about your ways
You got a problem and Im thinking about that day
I know the answer and Im thinking of what I need

I've been tongue tied
been tongue tied
been tongue tied
great

Ooh looking like there's something to do
yea I'm feeling special
looking like there's something to be

Sneaking in around on the block got some questions for me
tell me how do you bow to the markets with these
inner thoughts from the dark
dare I ask what you do

Ooh I'm feeling tongue tied
The strength thats from the outside
the molder new a liar
the liar was her lover

I got a question and Im thinking about your ways
You got a problem and Im thinking about that day
I know the answer and Im thinking of what I need

I've been tongue tied
been tongue tied
been tongue tied

Break than take
Break than take
Break than take
Break than take

My friend
its the people you meet
and its the truth that you seek
well heres the chip of the block
thats in me

Ooh I'm feeling tongue tied
The strength thats from the outside
the molder new a liar
the liar was her lover

I got a question and I'm thinking about your ways
You got a problem and I'm thinking about that day
I know the answer and I'm thinking of what I need

In the Warehouse of the 7 Sins

Offer me you logical

Maybe that he's crazy
or that he's lazy
thoughts of his denial

Well maybe that he's crazy
or that he's lazy
thoughts of his denial
Swear it is the final!

But you'll feel OK
drinking you wisdom drinking your way
day after day after day

Betting all your chips I hope

A pinup daydream lets go

Maybe that he's crazy
or that he's lazy
thoughts of his denial
swear it is the final
Well maybe that he's crazy
or that he's lazy
thoughts of his denial
Swear it is the final!

But you'll feel OK

Walk is Godlike

Walk is
Walk is god
god is like

From a view outside you can look into my eyes
This is my body and this is my pride
With a cold war sound in a state of confusion
This is my body my personal movement

What the preacher said to me he said son.......

Downtown in the state of confusion
screaming and I don't know why
got my own little personal movement
singing screaming don't know why
I am ,so lost ,and

Walk is
Walk is god
god is like

From a drunk past time
you have gone up on your mind
It is you body and its is your pride
With a makers mark in a state of delusion
For this is your body now drink the communion

What the preacher said to me he said son.......

Downtown in the state of confusion
screaming and I don't know why
got my own little personal movement
singing screaming don't know why
I am ,so lost ,and

Walk is
Walk is god
god is like

What the preacher he said to me
He said don't believe everything you see

What the preacher said to me
he said, "Son you need, Never Not Run".

Walk is god
Screaming and I don't know what
God Is like
Singing screaming don't know why
I ever lost
I am so lost
I am so lost and

Walk is
Walk is god
god id like

Tattooed Holidays

I’ll see you November December and April
I’ll see you November December and April

I guess I’m ready for the fall
I’ll see you November December and April
I guess I’m ready for the fall
I’ll see you November December and April

Salt of the mine
Wonderful time
Anchored in Rhyme
Vault of my mind

And you say
When death eats the fruit from the tree of life
This handsome devil will never die
And you say
When death is force fed from the tree of Life
This handsome devil will never ever

Your eyes told of a bridge to the other side

Brought to this office I'm lost in my mind
It’s something tragic and I’m holding past time
Brought to this office I'm lost in my mind
It’s something tragic and I’m holding past time

Brought the door the faces unsure
a tragedy that makes that brings us close
for a drink to share
A holiday that wears peoples cares
every year comes round to bring me down

And you say
When death eats the fruit from the tree of life
This handsome devil will never die
And you say
When death is force fed from the tree of Life
This handsome devil will never die

Your eyes told of a bridge to the other side

Brought to this office I'm lost in my mind
It’s something tragic and I’m holding past time
Brought to this office lost in my mind
It’s something tragic and I’m holding past time

Open the door ready to fall
Open the door ready to fall
I’m ready I’m ready I’m ready I’m ready to fall

I’ll see you November December and April
I’ll see you November December and April

I’ll see you November December and April
they say that something is better than nothing
I’ll see you November December and April
better than nothing better than

I guess I’m ready for the fall
I’m ready for the fall
I guess I’m ready for the fall
the fall the fall the fall
I guess I’m ready for the fall
I guess that I'm ready I'm ready
I guess I’m ready for the fall
the fall

I’ll see you November December and April
