    I always tell people that Shinoda made me fall in love with Real Hip Hop. He's the reason I looked up rappers like Pharaohe Monch which in turn led to me discovering so many other lyricists like Mos Def, Royce da 5'9 and so many others

      @@Just_Some_Yonko_With_A_Beard what? your sleeping schedule does not say anything about the length of your sleep. also, sleeping twice for half the time each is not a bad thing either. which would be a schedule. maybe i just missunderstand your "staying up all night is pointless" wrong, though.

    Mike Shinoda is amazing. He's different from the rappers now-a-days. This is what rap used to be about, it used to having meaning. Now, all it's about is sex, drugs, violence, and money. It's sad, because it leaves the real rappers (like Mike0 un-noticed. Music isn't the same thing it was 20-30 years ago. Mike, come back and do another side project with Fort Minor. This music is literally, the only thing giving me hope for this generation.

    Had this album. Spent the first 30 bucks of my pay check on it. I wasn't aware there was a limited edition, but had bought one by complete accident. I had heard the whole tracklist on spotify so many times, so when I popped in the cd on my drive home from my girlfriend's place an hour and a half away, I was expecting it to loop after the regular tracklist. Then I stumbled on this gem and fell in love with FM and Mike Shinoda's music all over again. And then, my cd got donated. I'll get a new one someday, as this started my love for getting actual physical copies of all of my music, just to see what other gems the original musicians hid on them.

    Green Lantern, uh, MS, Lupe
    Ya know, I'm a fan man, I'm a real fan
    (Gonna be somebody)
    Feel real honored to be up in here, ya know I'm saying
    (Gonna be someone)
    They had to bring out the expensive mics for this one
    (Gonna be somebody)
    Ya know I'm sayin' the seven thousand dolla
    Headphones for this one here
    Yeah, ya know I'm saying
    (Gonna be someone)
    Come on, talk to 'em
    This is the story of them against us, win or lose
    Forcin your feet into someone else's shoes
    Everybody's got somein' to say
    That we oughta live their way
    What were doin's not okay in this world
    Everybody's got a chip on both sides of their neck
    Got no respect, wait up a sec
    You ever feel like the pressure's too much too take
    Too much weight
    'Ladies and Gentlemen
    If anybody can hear me right now
    Please shout back'
    We're not the only one's feelin' so trapped
    In a dream of somebody else in fact
    They got their heads full of some overblown scheme
    Opportunity they missed
    Back when they were sixteen
    And all they want to do is push you to be that
    And all you wanna do is scream back
    Gonna be somebody
    For anybody tellin' me I can't
    Gonna be someone
    For anyone who told me I had no chance
    Gonna be somebody
    I'm tellin' you the time has come
    (Like that)
    Gonna be someone
    And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
    We don't sleep to dream
    We sleep to build stamina
    Energy to do our thing
    Get your camera
    'Cause this ride is about to begin
    Sit down and buckle it in
    Let me say it again in this world
    Everybody's got a chip on both sides of their neck
    Got no respect, wait up a sec
    When I was young
    They said the odds of makin' it
    We're slim to none, ladies and fuck it
    I'm tired of them sayin'
    The dream you have doesn't exist
    Tellin' you you're worthless
    Sayin' you should quit
    Basically tellin' you that you'll never be shit
    Really they're pissed 'cause they'll never achieve
    Some opportunity they missed
    Back when they were sixteen
    And all they want to do is push you to be that
    And all you wanna do is scream back
    Uh, they gone think you're crazy
    Mumblin' to yourself in the basement all day
    Uh uh uhin' to ya self, my pops didn't dig it
    Was shovelin to myself, my boys used to get it
    They dug it because they felt
    My undertakin' took me
    I was makin' in my stealth
    For wealth of rhymes, of crazy
    I was chuckin' to myself
    Then they went into the mental Rolodex
    See I'm knowin' 'bout heart
    Like a brain in my chest
    And I took up a school
    Where subjects was gettin' felt
    Books under my seat
    No book layin' on my desk
    My teacher's like, Mr. Jacob
    Yes? With all that knowledge
    You aint tryin' to go to college
    Be a lawyer or a doctor
    Get a whole lotta dollas
    Rather degrade women
    And glorify violence
    Well, the work that works for me
    Might not work for you
    No homework, I got work to do
    Gonna be somebody
    For anybody tellin' me I can't
    Gonna be someone
    For anyone who told me I had no chance
    Gonna be somebody
    I'm tellin' you the time has come
    (Like that)
    Gonna be someone
    And maybe you'll get it when I'm finally done
    (I'm finally done)

    if mike didn't join LP and have that type of success with them, I'm not sure people would like at this album a whole lot, not because he's not a talented individual but because if a rapper comes out and isn't all thuggish, talking about bitches and drugs then they aren't cool enough. when guys like mike and lupe are actually just really cool fuckin dudes, while these storyteller rappers makee millions, selling hope to the hopeless.
