about

Davadrian was living in Singapore at this time, and I was in the Philippines. We were even planning to camp out for a couple of weeks in SG to just work on music and record all day, but due to schedules this plan never materialized. I never got to work on all the beats that Davadrian sent me; I couldn't find the right flow for some of them, and I didn't want to just throw junk verses up on the beat.

My sound has drastically evolved over the years, and it wouldn't sound right to mix these tracks up with any new ones I come up with as these songs came from a different chapter of my life. So over the next few weeks I'm going to drip feed these tracks into one collection, and post up the lyrics as well as the story behind each track.

about

ONE3D, a hiphop artist from Quezon City, Philippines (but sometimes in Vancouver, BC), combines a gritty street flow and ... more multi-syllable rhyming schemes to create ORIGINAL hiphop music that talks about the things that most people are already thinking but don't voice out.

(Mad emphasis on ORIGINAL -- fuck carbon copy rappers, we got too many people copying someone else's sound) less

Track Name: Letter To The Philippines
CHORUS
Finally, even I'm in heat, this is my only chance to get heard and to speak
Coz in my letter to the Philippines I hope you will see
We had enough of this shit (we had enough of this shit)


Dear Philippines, our pearl of the east,
Our dear motherland, former country of peace
Our nation that's devoured by money, greed
Our people that's easy corrupted by a piece of power
The hour is here, I'll just make it perfectly clear
Keep on going at how we're going and destruction is near
And in this letter I'ma tell you the issues we face
Instead of bitching and whining, let's find solutions to take
It isn't hard to get blind, and turn your eye to the side
Especially when you're not a victim of everyday crimes
People are cutting, killing people over cellular phones
So they can go to Greenhills and get some gadgets to own
Goddamn, what the fuck made these people like so?
The lack of money or they lazy? Either one or it's both
And since when did objects exceed the value of life?
Yo Philippines, it's time to wake up and face the light

CHORUS
Finally, even I'm in heat, this is my only chance to get heard and to speak
Coz in my letter to the Philippines I hope you will see
We had enough of this shit (we had enough of this shit)

Ignorance, poverty negligence,
Plus unemployment, injustice and cultural differences,
The weakest education, and status segregation
Drug addiction and terrorism, gotta save our nation

Why is it so difficult to find a suitable job?
There ain't security and everyday employees get robbed
They earn a salary but taxes take a bite off the top
Not for improvement in the country but for government slobs
To buy their cars and gas, maintain the pool and grass
Pay for a school that makes their kids act like snobs and asses
On the other hand, the underprivileged loses
They go to schools where the teachers are lazier than the students
The seventh grade didn't do shit but add a year to their torture
They should be learning material that they could use in the future
Learn to think for themselves, just look how stupid this is
They know the national product but not what GDP is
On top of that, they find it hard to speak and understand english
And got the balls to dis the people good at speaking the language?
How the fuck you expect us to elevate on our status
By putting down the people talking to foreigners for their business

CHORUS
Finally, even I'm in heat, this is my only chance to get heard and to speak
Coz in my letter to the Philippines I hope you will see
We had enough of this shit (we had enough of this shit)

If you got problems, then you solve em, real men don't run
Let's put our minds together -- the Philippines ain't gone
And if you care, I believe that we can unite as one
For the blue, red, white, three stars and a sun
And everybody take action, can't let the Philippines die
Imagine an army of people that's charging, yelling MABUHAY
I can only hope my letter opens a door
To realize we can change, signing off, sincerely yours, ONE
Track Name: A-Oh
CHORUS
a-oh! i know you love that sound
a-oh! get, g-get, g-get down

a-oh! goddamn, what do you know, let, l-let's go


what's up, what's poppin now?
oh you gotta feel the hiphop sound, temperature dropping now
find out that you're losing your breath
while you're bobbin your head, and as you move like the rhythm of sex
hands up, kick drums are bumping
you always got kids making drama trying to prove that they're something so,
ease up, hope i don't disappoint,
this my man, brownstar, and we bring you this joint,
so chiki-check it out, i'm in the house now
put em up, gotta get up and get down
it's an insane, helluva show
you think you're giving it your all? well gotta give it some more
so pause, stop the things that you be doing
it's the one three, i'm just trying to get you moving, uh huh
you got too much to worry about
so for once, shut your mouth, try to get down


CHORUS
a-oh! i know you love that sound
a-oh! get, g-get, g-get down
a-oh! everybody comin around,
you gots to show me how you get, g-get down
a-oh! i see you there below
a-oh! let, l-let, l-let's go
a-oh! goddamn, what do you know, let, l-let's go


oh hell yeah, we're back again,
gentlemen, ladies, i proudly present
this brand new song to bump in your ride
take time, you can follow if you feel the vibe
let me take you to a moment every minute every second
some come along, take a journey on the record
i'm giving truth, you can holler "snitch!"
so make a move, you can follow "bitch!"
get up off your ass, get up on your feet
when i'm making music, it's a masterpiece
keep your ears open girl, on all the time
i'm being me, fuck pick up lines
this chick so goddamn fine
first sight gotta make her mine
got one shot, better be on
and before you even knew it, we were going, going.. gone


CHORUS
a-oh! i know you love that sound
a-oh! get, g-get, g-get down
a-oh! everybody comin around,
you gots to show me how you get, g-get down
a-oh! i see you there below
a-oh! let, l-let, l-let's go
a-oh! goddamn, what do you know, let, l-let's go


now twist and roll, inhale that smoke, gimme some of that
when shit unfolds, get locked and load, gimme some of that
i hold my own, don't trust my foes, gimme some of that
when you give it your all, better give it some more, now gimme some of that


CHORUS
a-oh! i know you love that sound
a-oh! get, g-get, g-get down
a-oh! everybody comin around,
you gots to show me how you get, g-get down
a-oh! i see you there below
a-oh! let, l-let, l-let's go
a-oh! goddamn, what do you know, let, l-let's go
Track Name: Dangerous
Guess who's back to bring you the news?
It's the ONE3D and the Audible crew
Coz we the only group that will give you the truth
The competition will be losin if they mess with us, ooh
People really gotta know: we dangerous
You try to play with us, we stay serious
And I must confess, we're cool unless
You runnin your mouth, you'll get beat with success
Coz if you want it you'll get it -- not in the physical sense,
But the damage we doin is just like breakin your legs
Just stop, rewind, coz if you had a mind
You'll mind your own business, leave ours behind
Now I ain't braggin, I'm just warning you to watch where you side
Coz we can and we will do it, we'll hurt your pride
To make somebody die by bleeding is a simple task
To kill somebody while they're breathing is a difficult act

CHORUS
You better pay attention to what I say
I'm stressin it's never safe if punks get in our way (DANGEROUS!)
We'll send you away, coz music we don't just play with
Hunting down our prey, we'll stay on the top today (DANGEROUS!)

Ohhh, this is not a game
And in no way am I here to fail
I aim with precision, that's my claim to fame
Take a look at both of us, we're nowhere near the same
One Three, from Jakarta that's the place I stayed
Though in Manila it remains in my brain today
Never forget -- that's the rule of the game we play
And anybody who betrays, there's a price to pay
Might be ashamed to say, but you have to admit
It doesn't even take a minute of me wasting my spit
For you to nod a bit when I hit with my shit
It be an instant thing when I open my lips
It must be difficult for you to cope with the kid
My shit is touching a nerve, getting under your skin
I said it, told you before, I'ma tell you again
You never fuck with Audible, Miscellaneous and Ginn

CHORUS
You better pay attention to what I say
I'm stressin it's never safe if punks get in our way (DANGEROUS!)
We'll send you away, coz music we don't just play with
Hunting down our prey, we'll stay on the top today (DANGEROUS!)

Don't say I didn't warn you, coz I'm really not to blame if I harm you
If you really got a brain and some IQ, you would stay out of my way and won't argue
I just think you should keep out of mine and stay with yours, really best for both of us than to have a war,
You and I we're grown men we can act mature, don't gotta be a little kid like you were before (DANGEROUS!)

Stop -- now drop,
One3D, check the flavor I got
You a big shot? Your shit's hot? Nah, I think not
There ain't no slots for top boss across spots
Hip hop, thick plots, hits, and big flops
Rumors and eavesdropping, ain't no way this shit won't happen
Those in rap who think there's good in being hard?
You can have it, you can be it, I'm cool with being smart

CHORUS
You better pay attention to what I say
I'm stressin it's never safe if punks get in our way (DANGEROUS!)
We'll send you away, coz music we don't just play with
Hunting down our prey, we'll stay on the top today (DANGEROUS!)
