Vocalist Esthero was born Jen-Bea Englishman on December 23, 1978, in Ontario, Canada. She moved to Toronto in 1996, and quickly became a fixture at the city's open mikes. There she met Doc (real name: Martin McKinney), an engineer and producer, and the two began working on a demo featuring his programming and her vocals. Sony eventually took interest, and suddenly Esthero went from a fledgling idea to a duo with Esthero's name as their own and a record, Breath from Another, issued in spring 1998 on the label's Work imprint. Breath's mix of beats, lush vocals, and fractured bits of programmed samples caught on perfectly with the trip-hop trend of the time, and Esthero had success with singles like Heaven Sent and the hip-hop-flavored title track. However, it would take nearly seven years for a follow-up to appear. In the interim Esthero parted ways with Doc and struck out on her own, contributing vocals to projects like Black Eyed Peas' "Weekends" (2000). Signing with Reprise, she began work on new material, and returned officially in summer 2004 with the club single O.G. Bitch. Esthero followed the single in November of that year with We R in Need of a Musical Revolution, an EP that found her collaborating with Sean Lennon, Cee-Lo, and producer James Robertson (Skye Sweetnam) on a 21st century version of Breath's assemblage sound. The EP set up a full-length entitled Wikked Lil' Girls, which was slated for release in early 2005.

One Life
( Last Emperor feat Poetic and Esthero ) 1993, shortly before Thanksgivin' I got the call she say Jamal, Derek is no longer livin Softly she spoke Is this a joke? Man, you gotta be kiddin As my question was raised this explanation was givin A meaningless death Made me question the meaning of life Does my body remain at rest like when I'm sleeping at night? Will I burn in eternal hell? Or will I find paradise? Be rejected or ressurected like the body of Christ Is it like purgatory the story described by the Catholics? Or nirvana that Buddha saw in both theory and practice Like I studied in my college phillosophy classes Or do my molecules and atoms travel back to the gases I mean what I'd like to know Is wheres my spirit go? After the curtains close On my final show Is there a pain it brings? Enjoy my favorite thing Visit ancient kings Hear the angel sing Who'll answers these said the great mcs My man Gremel's battling a debilitating disease He said "You see a brother like me is full in the fight" And everytime I question death my only answer in life Nigga fight One life Only god can set me free Am I living in this moment? Am I living righteously? It gets hard, but I know I've got to keep on I'm tryin so hard to be strong Paralyzed on the bathroom floor by pain Last month I endured But now I can't ignore Feels like rail road spikes being stuck in my liver And my dyin eyes cryin', body startin to shiver Crawl upstairs from the basement callin my sister *sniff* Dawn, help me, I ain't feelin to healthy Stomach walls burnin Head spinnin and turnin Waitin for the EMS 3:10 in the mournin Rush me to emergency screamin like a newborn The pain's to strong maybe my souls tryin to move on He hooked me to the i.v. Put me through some x-rays Gave me demorall to kill the pain that was the next phase Early the next day in a hospital room Moms and Pops in the room 3 or 4 docs in the room My test results suggest Your colon and your liver is so cancerous You got 3 months left Me and death is playin chess Ever since then My strength is the most high,my fam and close friends The Last Emp been sent free blessed me with a verse Stayin healthy comes first, look at me, things can be worse One life Only god can set me free Am I living in this moment? Am I living righteously? It gets hard, but I know I've got to keep on I'm tryin so hard to be strong One life Only god can set me free Am I living in this moment? Am I living righteously? It gets hard, but I know I've got to keep on I'm tryin so hard to be strong
Priceless
( Rascalz feat. Esthero on backing vocals )
They say that everybody got a price, through material lust, for the things nice Better think twice Not everything can be bought or sold Certain things in this life money don't control Life itself in this world is priceless Word to my nephew, my niece The way I hold my device is with innate skill Don't be surprised kid There's no denying, it's the way it should be done: crisp Yo, I could never be paid enough for this so, on the paper, well What you might have be the bomb shit to them and you'd be mislead by the fasaud of video life And what a wack rapper said, but understanding is priceless 'Cause it enables one to see both sides of the coin kid 'Cause even if you got to lot, the best things in life you might not got Like knowledge Knowledge of self, knowledge of God, knowledge of health Since the direction's stepping through, collect that pot of wealth And that's for real The truth I can't conceal So, I teamed up with Red just to let you know the deal Hey, yo, for real, far gone Way too vain Then might run from reality to escape the pain The salary: the aim No moral on the brain 'cause everything has a price when you have no shame Everyone wants a life The hard thing's to gain Thinking what they can't have, money will obtain, but it ain't so simple a plan Know what I'm saying? It just ain't so simple a plan They say that everybody got a price, through material lust, for the things nice Better think twice Not everything can be bought or sold Certain things in this life money don't control Certain things in this life money don't control Certain things in this life money don't control Hey, yo, survival of the fittest To survive you need dough, but once you got dough, got to maintain a steady flow and let it grow You know, add another zero Yo, from down in the ghetto through more than a door Now accustomed to things that you wasn't before Money showed you power you never felt when poor You say money make power, dinero with corruption 'Til corrupted to the point parallel of destruction Disgusted Mind full of a lusting Got mixed priorities Family love, first thing Praises are due for life, from one morning because tomorrow's a site, not a guaranteed thing So, live to the fullest Make your moves to win Cherish your brethren Nourish and love your children Throw them positive, negative'll kill them Drafted to war for arrogant, wicked men But it's all unity, one world community To divide is the recipe Sour our tragedy So, adequately you get yours, I get mine Take nothing for granted and walk a righteous line They say that everybody got a price, through material lust, for the things nice Better think twice Not everything can be bought or sold Certain things in this life money don't control Certain things in this life money don't control Certain things in this life money don't control Hey, yo, the love from a woman that ain't your mother: priceless The sun, moon, or Earth and what they yield is priceless The morals that you pass down to kids is priceless That's why I always take time to write this To have hope in this world is priceless. Common sense with education is priceless Having insight with understanding is priceless A combination of the two harmonising If the practice of what you preach is priceless, learning from your own mistakes is also priceless Yo, for real, check your own actions and be you proud and almost they share the same likeness In turn earns respect which is priceless And when you speak the truth, your word is priceless Don't forget self-control over temptation's priceless Like all facets of hip hop we symbolise this They say that everybody got a price, through material lust, for the things nice Better think twice Not everything can be bought or sold Certain things in this life money don't control Certain things in this life money don't control Yo, certain things in this life money don't control Certain things in this life money don't control.

Tao of now ( Saul Williams featuring Esthero ) Esthero : Oh ahhhh oooh Saul williams : Children of this night Only same will star the sky Only believers in death will die And fathers must feather the wings of women For the unfeathered masses dangle ridiculous Carrying crosses to phalayx filled tombs The future sails silence through blood rivered wombs That ripple with riddles of cows and spoons and births Moons and earths Sun-centered at noon Esthero : Now.... Saul williams : And here i stand Court jestering infinity Fetal fisted for revolution But open hands birth humility Now what you the density of an egoless planet? Must my spine be aligned to sprout wings? I'm slouched into sling steps and kangoled with gang reps But my orbit rainbows saturn rings Mystical eliptical Presto polaris Karmic flamed future when saturns and aries And not i'm a fish called father With gills type dizzy Blowing liquid lullabies through the spine of time I'm certain of saturns rivers and all esle is fact So baptise me in the stars And wrap me in nighttime Moon blue Pupil my sight with orange balls of light And echo my plight Through the corridors of metaphor What else are we living for if not to create Fiction and rhyme? My purpose is to make my soul Rhyme with my mind Mind over matter Minds create matter minds create fiction As a matter of fact As if matter were fact Matter is fact So spirit much be fiction Science fiction Art fiction meta fiction Esthero : Now Saul williams : The tao of now Is here amongst the living in the voice of children is the tao of now Esthero : You are the divine reflection of this earth She does not belong to you No there is no need for your correction All run in the same rivers Saul williams : All rivers run in the same direction If you're serving the father theres no sun w/o matter Parent bodies discover water Bodies and drown Wade me in the water 'Til atlantis is found On the sea floors of self I'm starfish and unbound Heard the way of that mound is stone mountain Underwater volcanoes erupt water fountains of youth Test this carnal equation cancel out wind and truth Swirl me beyond sometimes Drench me water proof Let eve drop forever rain Sunsets on my roof As i sit on the front porch of my sanity Deciphering hambones to van gogh this vanity Oiled egos Canvased and framed To be reborn unborn unburied unnamed A reflection through a blood stained glass window Or souls Esthero : There is a monster living It's the voice of children It is the tao of now Saul williams : Gone yellow round the edges Carbonated dreams and blurred daily lives But let family bring focus Out of swamps blossom lotus The muddy water blue daughter of infinity Gravity we water bodied bhodisativas our serenity As we rise with the tides toward divinity Esthero : Now... There is a monster living its in the voice of children It is the tao of now Saul williams : Yes we rise with the tides towards divinity The muddy water blue daughter of infinity Gravity we water bodied bhodisativas our serenity As we rise with the tides toward divinity.... Yes we rise with the tides towards diviinty Now we rise with the tides towards divinity 'Cause we rise with the tides towards divinity Esthero : Now... Saul williams : The tao of now Is here amongst the living in the voice of children is the tao of now Esthero : There is a monster living it's in the voice of children It is the tao of now
The Hero
( J. Englishman and Esthero ) Esthero : Oh, oh, oh.. J. Englishman: Well I've been watching from the shadows While you shook your fist at God And screamed for all who listened About how he's done you wrong Why don't you put away your pistols Climb down off your cross Coz the battle's long been over And the war is long since lost And all those bridges that you've broken Done burned down long ago Coz you just had to be the superstar Esthero & J. Englishman: Just had to be the hero You just had to be the hero J. Englishman: Well I was there in the beginning And I saw you choose your path I watched your candle burning And I knew it wouldn't last Coz when experience comes knocking Innocence will pass And all that once seemed child-like Is now ugly, crude and crass And you wonder how you lost yourself So many years ago Coz you just had to be the superstar Esthero & J. Englishman: Just had to be the hero You just had to be the hero (Yeah) J. Englishman: Are you as angry on the inside As you are on the surface Esthero and J. Englishman: Been frontin' so long you've forgotten the purpose Now there's a hole in the whole Where your soul Used to be Uh huh Esthero and J. Englishman: Well I've been watching from the shadows While you shook your fist at God And screamed for all who listened About how he's done you wrong Why don't you put away your pistols Climb down off your cross Coz the battle's long been over And the war is long since lost And now this old broken heart Weeps for the one I used to know Who just had to be the superstar Just had to be the hero You just had to be the hero Why did you have to be the hero

This Lull-A-By
And if I give you what you want And everything you need, honey Could you deliver that to me Could you give yourself completely to a love like this And all it can bring A picket fence, a diamond ring Well I really did not think so Just say goodbye Goodbye Don't ask me why Don't ask me why I'll listen to this lull-a-by Don't say you'll try After tonight All that I am is this lull-a-by If I am all that you desire Then why are you never, ever satisfied I could give the world and you'd still cry Your refrain again and again And I might stay if you would bend But I really did not think so Just say goodbye Don't ask me why I'll listen to this lull-a-by Don't say you'll try Don't say you'll try After tonight Darling, I am All that I am is this lull-a-by This lull-a-by This lull-a-by This lull-a-by Just say goodbye Don't ask me why I'll listen to this lull-a-by Don't say you'll try After tonight All that I am This lull-a-by
Too rude
( Carmen Rizzo feat. Esthero)
Too rude To say you're sorry Too rude Just say you're leaving me I can't pretend that i don't mind So i'm The better woman now. Well you could screeeeaaaam out But no ones listening And to me your silence is deafening I can't pretent that i dont mind So i'm the better woman now Too rude Too rude Just say you're sorry Just say you're sorry Just say you're leaving me
Universal Quest Left Eye: It's for the open minded Now Now what do you believe? Who do you receive? Where do you go next? And through what exit do you leave? The questions that I believe confessions go to He Count your many lessons and blessings that they bring This is for my breed and all life that is conceived Energy told me you manifest your destiny What is energy? It's what you eat It's what you breathe It's what you think It permeates throughout your being And serves a link to all other energies That's anything and everything Moving light that you have never seen And light carries information Without hesitation vibrations glean Through the constellation, manifestation stimulated Better destination, total creation realizations And mental concentration Alienated from the truth Is why we conversated Savin' the nation for the youth Is for my observation Esthero: Are you free or are you guided? Do you make your own decisions? Our only responsibility is love (love) Left Eye: Let's touch on Christianity I question all humanity Is God so full of vanity? That children enter this family Who haven't yet to see that Jesus is the key Or suffer this calamity, I cast you down for an eternity Insanity You can call me what you want to But the man in me Separated from this false reality Would never be the victim of casualty For my lack of understanding there's a guarantee Spirituality has immortality No matter your status or nationality What's your locality notice the fallacy We're all separated by principalities Billions of galaxies and all you see is this In the totality of eternal bliss A life of sin it's all the kin Esthero: Are you free or are you guided? Do you make your own decisions? Our only responsibility is love (love) Are you free or are you guided? Do you make your own decisions? Our only responsibility is love (love) Left Eye: You see, we like to make things complicated You don't have to read books and go to church To learn about God And find out We don't know how to talk to each other You know if we all just be quiet Then we'll realize that we can really hear each other And then you'll realize that you already have the answers Esthero: Are you free or are you guided? Do you make your own decisions? Our only responsibility is love (love) Are you free or are you guided? Do you make your own decisions? Our only responsibility is love (love) Do you make, make your own? 'Cause you're all on your own Do you all make, make your own? 'Cause you're all on your own Do you make, make your own? 'Cause you're all on your own Do you all make, make your own? 'Cause you're all on your own Do you make, make your own? 'Cause you're all on your own Do you all make, make your own? 'Cause you're all on your own

White Rabbit ( Blue Man Group f Esthero - Original lyrics by Jefferson Airplane )
One pill makes you larger And one pill makes you small, And the ones that mother gives you Don't do anything at all. Go ask Alice When she's ten feet tall. And if you go chasing rabbits And you know you're going to fall, Tell 'em a hookah smoking caterpillar Has given you the call. Call Alice When she was just small. When the men on the chessboard Get up and tell you where to go And you've just had some kind of mushroom And your mind is moving low. Go ask Alice I think she'll know. When logic and proportion Have fallen softly dead, And the White Knight is talking backwards And the Red Queen's "off with her head!" Remember what the dormouse said: "Feed your head. Feed your head. Feed your head"

Windmills of your mind ( Supposed to be on the Thomas Crown Affair OST, but rejected ! )
Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone Like a door that keeps revolving in a half forgotten dream Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes on its face And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head Why did summer go so quickly, was it something that you said Lovers walk along a shore and leave their footprints in the sand Is the sound of distant drumming just the fingers of your hand Pictures hanging in a hallway and the fragment of this song Half remembered names and faces but to whom do they belong When you knew that it was over, you were suddenly aware That the autumn leaves were turning to the color of his hair Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel As the images unwind Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind

Wish You Away
(Japan Bonus Track) Another sock in the belly day Why don't you go away Inside your storm It kind of keeps me warm at night Well, I know it to be true Swirling through inside you Your light, my light, your light After you left, I couldn't sleep I have nowhere to be And if you go, then I go too And if you leave, then I will find you I will find you I was kicked in the belly today And it wasn't fair play I would scream But I've too much to say Life isn't fair play I wish you away Just go away I wish you away Don't go away I wish you away Don't go away You were never here anyway
You're A Mean One, Mr Grinch (Esthero & Noise Club) Megyn Kelly : "You've called women you don't like "Fat pigs" "Dogs" "Slobs" and "Disgusting animals" Donald Trump : "It is the level of stupidity that is incredible" I'm telling you, I used to use the word incompetent Now I just call them stupid" You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch You really are a heel You're as cuddly as a cactus You're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch You're a monster, Mr. Grinch Your heart's an empty hole Your brain is full of spiders You have garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch Donald Trump : "That showed such weakness The way he was taken away by two young women The microphone, they just took the whole place over That will never happen with me I don’t know if I’ll do the fighting myself or if other people will" You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch You have termites in your smile You have all the tender sweetness Of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch You're a rotter, you're a rotter Oh you're a rotter Donald Trump : What about the alt-Left that came charging them Do they have any semblance of guilt You had a group on one side that was bad And you had a group on the other side that was also very violent And nobody wants to say that, but I’ll say that right now You're a rotter Donald Trump : Oh, we have another one over here, another single Get out of here Get out of here Get out of here
