It's always here and now, my friend It ain't 'once upon a time' It's all over but the shouting I've come to take what's mine We're searching for the latest thing A break in this routine Talkin' some new kicks Ones like you ain't never seen This is home This is Mean Street It's our home Only one I know (This is home) See, a gun is real easy (This is Mean Street) In this desperate part of town (This is home) Turns you from hunted into hunter (This is Mean Street) You go and hunt somebody down But hear me now (This is home) Somebody said, "Fair Warning, Lord! (This is Mean Street) Lord, strike that poor boy down!"

DO YOU LOVE ME --------------------------- Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? I found him on a night of fire and noise Wild bells rang in a wild sky I knew from that moment on That I'd love him till the day that I died And I kissed away a thousand tears His lady of the various sorrows Some begged, some borrowed, some stolen Some kept safe for tomorrow On and endless night, silver star spangled The bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me... like I love you? She was given to me to put things right And I stacked all my accomplishments beside her Yet I seemed so obsolete and small I found god and all his devils inside her In my bed she cast the blizzard out A mock sun blazed upon her head So completely filled with light she was Her shadow fanged and hairy and mad Our love-lines grew hopelessly tangled And the bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me... like I love you? She had a heart full of love and devotion She had a mind full of tyranny and terror Well, I try, I do, I really try But I just err, baby, I do, I error So come find me, my darling one I'm down to the grounds, the very dregs Ah, here she comes, blocking the sun Blood running down the inside of her legs The moon in the sky is battered and mangled And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle Jingle-jangle, jingle-jangle, jingle-jangle Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me... like I love you? All things move toward their end I knew before I met her that I would lose her I swear I made every effort to be good to her I made every effort not to abuse her Crazy bracelets on her wrists and her ankles And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me... like I love you? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me...like I love you? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me?

I AIN'T NO JOKE ----------------------- I ain't no joke, I use to let the mic smoke Now I slam it when I'm done and make sure it's broke When I'm gone I wrote this song 'cause I won't let Nobody press up and mess up to seen I set I like to stand in a crowd and watch the people wonder damn Bu think about it then you'll understand I'm just an addict addicted to music Maybe it's a habit, I gotta use it Even if it's jazz or the quiet storm I hook a beat up convert it in a hip-hop form Write a rhyme in graffiti in every show you see me in Deep concentration 'cause I'm no comedian Jokers are wild if you want to be tame I treat you like a child then you're gonna be named Another enemy, not even a friend of me 'cause you'll get fried in the end if you pretend to be Can be 'cause I just put your mind on pause And I can beat you when you compare my rhyme wit yours I wake you up and as I stare in your face you seem stun Remember me, the one you got your idea from But soon you start to suffer but you only get rougher When you start to stutter that's when you had enuff of Biting it, I make you choke, you can't provoke You can't cope, you should of broke 'cause I ain't no joke I got a question, it's serious as cancer Who can keep the average dancer Hyper as a heart attack nobody smiling 'Cause you're expressing the rhyme that I'm styling This is what we all sit down to write You can't make it so you take it home, break it and bite Use pieces and bits of all the hip-hop hits Get the style down pack then it's time to ?swit? Put my tape on pause and add some more to yours Then you figure you're ready for the neighborhood chores The E-M-see-E-E don't even try to be When you come up to speak, don't even lie to me You like to exaggerate, dream and imaginate Then change the rhyme around, that can aggravate me So when you see me come up, freeze Or you'll be one of those 7 MC's They think that I'm a new jack but only if they knew that They who think wrong are they who can't do that Style that I'm doing, they might ruin Patterns of paragraphs based on you and Your offbeat DJ, if anything he play Sound familiar, I'll wait til E say Play 'em, so I'ma have to dis and broke You could get a smack for this, I ain't no joke I hold the microphone like a grudge Be I'll hold the record so the needle don't budge I hold a conversation 'cause when I invent I nominated my DJ the presdient When I'm see I'll, people freestyle, going steadily So pucker up and whistle my melody But whatever you do, don't miss one They'll be another rough rhyme after this one Before you know it, you're following and fiending Waiting for the punchline to get the meaning Like before the middle of my story I'm telling Nobody beats the are so stop yelling Save it, put it in your pocket for later 'Cause I'm moving the crowd and be a record fader No interruptions and the mic is broke When I'm gone, then you can joke 'Cause everything is real on a serious tip Keep playing and I varies quick And take you for a walk through hell Feed your dome then watch your eyeballs swell Guide you out of triple stage darkness When it get dark again then I'ma spark this Microphone 'cause the heat is on, you see smoke And I'm finish when the beat is gone, I'm no joke

My Way 05:06 video
MY WAY ----------- And now...the end is near And so I face the final curtain My friends...I’ll say it clear I’ll state my case of which I’m certain I’ve lived...a life that’s full I’ve traveled each and every highway And more, much more than this I did it... My Way Regrets! I’ve had a few But then again, too few to mention I did...what I had to do And saw it through without exemption I planned...each charted course Each careful step along the byway And more...much more than this I did it... MY WAY! There were times, I’m sure you knew When I bit off, more than I could chew But through it all, when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out I faced it all and I stood tall And did it...MY WAY! I’ve loved, I’ve laughed, I've cried I’ve had my fill...my share of losing And now as tears subside I find it all just so amusing To think I did all that And may I say not in a shy way Oh no, oh no, not me I did it ...MY WAY! What is a girl...what has she got If not herself, then she has not To say the things...she truly feels And not the words of one who kneels The record shows...I took my blows And did it ...MY WAY!

Surprise and Happy Valentines Day ❣ ️❤️

From "My War" to "My Way"...My Ruin have always done it OUR way.

Hello again! It's been a minute, so where do we begin?

Let's go back and start at the end. After the release of our last album "The Sacred Mood" followed by our 2014 U.K. tour, we decided to take a much needed break from My Ruin. Our hearts, minds and most importantly our mental health demanded it. Years of touring and dealing with behind the scenes bullshit along with numerous shady characters in the music industry had taken it's toll on both of us. Sometimes you need to step away from a situation to gain perspective and keep it sacred.

Earlier this month Mick & I celebrated our 20 year anniversary. With that in mind, we wanted commemorate the occasion and the love we feel for our band along with the some of the artists we've loved since we were young and throughout our relationship.

We've always loved a good cover and find it interesting to hear how a band interprets a song and makes it their own. We've had a blast covering a few of our favorite artists live on tour and on our various studio recordings ourselves over the years. Unfortunately, many of our albums are out of print and finding the actual physical CD's is difficult so we decided to go through our extensive discography and put them together in one rad new digital compilation covers album we have appropriately titled "Rock Love & Red Lipstick" for obvious reasons.

We are giving it away as a FREE DOWNLOAD in honor of today and to thank you for the love have shown our band over the last 20 years. If you care to make a donation in the name of art with your download, we thank you again and appreciate the support in continuing to keep our DIY spirit of independence alive in our music!

We have sequenced each track to create a vibe.They're not in order except for the first and last song that bookend the album. We kick shit off with "My War" because our path was never easy. From day one, we fought a long hard battle in the music industry just to be heard and seen. It took us through many trials and tribulations over the last twenty years but our love of the music and each other is what kept us together throughout the madness.

"Rock Love & Red Lipstick" features 16 ruined & remastered songs including 2 brand new, never before heard covers of the old school hip hop classic "I Ain't No Joke" by Eric B & Rakim and "My Way" which was made famous by both Frank Sinatra & Sid Vicious which we have given a spoken word/brutal scream, heavy metal feminine twist. Those who know us and have followed our band will understand why we have chose to both cover & close the album with "My Way" because it illustrates our journey perfectly.

We hope you take a moment to download our cover album to add to your My Ruin related music collection and enjoy listening to it as much as much as we enjoyed recording it.

Although we are still on a self imposed "hiatus" with no plans for touring in the near future, we just wanted to touch base and let you know we are thinking of you. We've loved, we've laughed and we've cried. We hope you will continue to support us as we follow our hearts wherever they may take us in 2020. Ride or die.

🤘🏻❤️💋
