I like to receive it
But I don’t wanna give it up
I’ll set the roof on fire
Before I cuff my sleeves up
Maybe tell em that I tripped off a cliff or
Say I gotta couple kids at the crib
Whatever it is
I wish
I wish
I Wish
If I could just hold It
Maybe even control it
What would you do if it had no hold over you
I hate being in this money pit
Truthfully I don’t a
(not one not at all)
And The deeper I sink
The more I see that crime pays
Crime pays
So Will I just perish broke
Along with everyone else
I want to leave a legacy of my own
Continue my family’s wealth
Never thought that I’d so be afraid
of not knowing
When that check’s gone come
I thought I’d won
So don’t you Kurt Cobain me
Absolutely no desire to be famous
Whatever you choose
I wish I just could
I wish
I wish
I wish
I pray that I could just hold it
Maybe even control it
What would you do if it had no hold over you?
I hate being in this money pit
Truthfully I don’t give a not one (not at all)
And The deeper I sink
The more I see that crime pays
Crime pays

Gaslight me while the world is on fire
It ain’t touched me but the smoke takin” me higher
I don’t know what should I believe
I been seeing things hearing things
I really want the real some way
Uh-huh
I really want the real some way
Show me lies
Don’t care the price
Ride or die I’mma ride or die
Get that check huh maybe even twice
Now I’mma real one
Just name the price yeah
But I’m alone feels like I might cry
Who hears my cries
Is anyone outside
No one by my side
Who is to blame
All I really wanted was a little but of fame
Work work work work work work
It has to
I has to work
Ahh work
(Oooo)
It has to work
It has to work
Everybody wishes that they could be famous
Spendin’ all night on Tik Tok tryna get that angle
While the time is goes tik-tok
It’ll never ever slow its roll
If you think It’ll wait you
You are dead wrong
Gaslight me while the world is on fire
It ain’t touched me but the smoke takin me higher
I don’t know what should I believe I been seeing things hearing things
You say
Even if I crash and burn
The world would know my name
Even if it cost my soul I’ll have a bit of acclaim
Work work work work work work
It has to
I has to work
Ahh work
(Oooo)
It has to work
It has to work
For the rest of my life

Another one dead
We cry and scream (cry)
Pray for relief (pray)
Receive no light
Another one dead
We ask we wait
For something to change
But there is no way
For them to stop hatin’ me
Seems like no way
For them to stop praying on my downfall
Waitin’ on them rounds to go
Off aomeone shot
In my hood it’s a blood ball
Police we can’t even call
They pull up and spray us all
Shoot first ask questions later
What’s the point of it all
What’s the point of it all
What do you gain from being so inhumane?
Tell me whats in it for ya
You could be next
What if I’m
What if I’m
Next
I could be next
Victimized by it all
Psycological stress
All this depression
And anxiety
Seems to be
Getting
The best of me
Seeing my brothers
Shot dead in the streets
For what

Too Much

I’m a mess
I’m a monster
Let you tell it
I can harm you
Let you tell it
My soul left long ago
Let you tell it
My whole chest is a hole
Fell in love with an crooked angel
Crooked angles
I can’t see where you coming from
Promise I’m
where all of the blame goes
you created this world
Sevens 8 in this world
truth is very heavy and it holds no weight in this world
You said this is what you made me
Im am never changing
And you keep on explaining to me
How you swear on your soul
the beast you’ve become
Is all my fault
This is what you made me you said
Im am never changing
And you keep on explaining to me
How you swear on your soul
the beast you’ve become
Is all my fault
Speak Up
Speak up
You said
You said
Speak up
Speak Up
You said (if this is too much too much)
You gotta speak up speak up
You said
I been cryin’
Making problems
Let you tell it
Its just drama
Let you tell it I been asking too much from you lately
Let you tell it I don’t know what I got and I’m crazy
Am I loving you to much
Does it feel like a drug
Do you keep getting high pulling up on my love
Well I’m done
I’m so fed up (so done)
And your inertia’s pulling me away from my sun
You said this is what you made me
Im am never changing
And you keep on explaining to me
How you swear on your soul
the beast you’ve become
Is all my fault
This is what you made me you said
Im am never changing
And you keep on explaining to me
How you swear on your soul
the beast you’ve become
Is all my fault

Can We... Let it Go?
02:56

Lets be straightforward
Keep it exactly a 100% real
You know I adore you
But I’m not sure that we’ve got the same idea
Immerse
With me
Let us
Be free and just breathe
Breathe into who we should be
But baby are we goin too fast ?
Maybe we can make this last
What are we doin
Can we get through this
Oh yeah
You said you wanna ride
Till the wheels fall out
And spark down the street
No matter how it hard gets that sweet feeling
Never seems to run out to me
I’ll be here till the end of the world
Until the sky unfurls before us
Curse of the taurus
Immerse
With me
Let us
Be free
And just breathe
Breathe into who we should be
I am yours for all seasons
You are part of my reason to live
Part of my reason to live
Fire summer
Water fall
I am yours
No matter how far you fall
No matter how far you fall
Fire summer
Water fall
I am yours
No matter how far you fall
No matter how far you fall

Illusive (Interlude)
02:50

It Feels like you don’t need me anymore
It feels like you only need me when you’re torn
Don’t wanna be near
wish I could feel you
Yes ill forgive you
But I am still healing too
Your love is all I’ve ever known
You stayed strong
Way too strong
Wish that I could go back
To when the illusion was better than real life in my mind
Waited to meet you halfway but you swam away
Thought we’d find the way
Sometimes its hard to stand you
yet I can understand you
I was like a bandage for you
I would fix the damage for you
Watched em take advantage of you
Handled it I’ll hand it to you
You did all you felt you could do
All you felt you could do
Maybe we just need a break
Maybe its all give and take
On a need to know basis
But I can’t fake that
I love you the most
Cherish you hold you close
I cannot fake that I
love you the most
It Feels like you don’t need me anymore
It feels like you only need me when you’re torn
Know I overreact
And you just want the best
For me and yes I’ll forgive you
But I am still healing too
Healing too

Mountains

Do you remember when we were young
All we wanted was some fun
Lost in what we thought it was
I had this feeling that you were the one for me
my family
Even when everything was hard you picked up my calls
But then it all stopped
And you broke my heart
Everything got twisted
Even though I miss that
Its nothing we can get back
I know that your hurting
But I didn’t deserve this
Your still worth it
I made you a promise
I know that you’ll push through
Ill be here if you need me to
Mountains.. for you
I would move a mountain for you x3
Everything got twisted
Even though I miss that
Its nothing we can get back
I know that my purpose is to love through
The bs
But right now I don’t deserve
This
(I don’t deserve it no)
No
I’ll be there if you need me to
Holding on
I keep holding on (if you need me to, to)
Holding on
I keep holding on
Did you think I would just let you
Back in
After
All the things that you did
I don’t think so
Oh I don’t think so
After all of the nights I cried
Without you by my side
Then you slithered right on back in
I haven’t even had the time to heal
(No chance no chance no chance)
I haven’t even had
The time
To
Heal
Before you’re back again

To get through what I’m going through

Its is simple
Don’t make it so complicated
Just keep your rhythm
Execute with precision
And you’ll be alright
said you’ll be alright
It will make so more sense with time
You’ll forget about it
As soon the light shines on your eyes
You might have to try try try again
But at least you know more than you did back then
I think you should take your time
Really make up your mind
Cause it’ll work out for your good
Really you should
Pace yourself
Don’t be afraid to ask help
There is no shame
cause one day you will lead the way
Really you should
Pace yourself
Don’t be afraid to ask help
There is no shame
cause one day you will lead the way
Its really simple
Don’t make it so complicated
Just keep ya rhythm
And know that you
You gone kill ‘em kill ‘em
Baby you’re a winner winner
And I know it gets frustrating
But you know you know you know
You know you know you know
You’ll forget about it
As soon the light shines on your eyes
You might have to cry and cry again
But at least you know more than you did back then
I think you should take your time
Really Make up your mind
Cause it’ll work out for your good
Really you should
Pace yourself
Don’t be afraid to ask help
There is no shame
cause one day you will lead the way
Really you should
Pace yourself
Don’t be afraid to ask help
There is no shame
cause one day you will lead the way
You’ll lead the way
I can’t be anything without God
I don’t want somebody to think I’m playin a role of something no
I want to be real
And even with what I’m going through
Has caused me to have a deeper love for God
Cause it’s him that’s taking me through this
It’s not easy
