Better For You 03:37
lyrics
buy track
You wanna lover but I’m never home You understand me but I’m not your own I wanna can it but I can’t ignore I’ve been for you You wanna lover but I disappear You leave a message but it’s never clear You make an entrance but the exit door’s better for you It’s better for you Now when you came calling Hands ‘round my neck Want me to beg Oh made a mistake, falling ‘Cause I could never love someone like you You want to stay? Isn’t that what you came for? Wait, there’s better for you Better for you Lost myself in there for a minute But I can’t keep holding on You’re my limit Better save yourself I know that there’s better for you For you, for you You got me hazy off the pheromones Your fragrance hanging on my collarbone You’re rubbing on me like you’re my cologne Falling for you Red in your eyes like you’re an animal Finesse advances like a matador There’s just no hiding it in metaphor I ain’t for you, there’s better for you Now when you came calling Hands ‘round my neck Want me to beg Oh made a mistake, falling ‘Cause I could never love someone like you You want to stay? Isn’t that what you came for? Wait, there’s better for you Better for you Lost myself in there for a minute But I can’t keep holding on You’re my limit Better save yourself I know that there’s better for you For you, for you You want to stay? Isn’t that what you came for? Wait, there’s better for you Better for you Lost myself in there for a minute But I can’t keep holding on You’re my limit Better save yourself I know that there’s better for you For you, for you

Struggle For A Little 03:05
lyrics

Struggle for a little, try to forget Til its blowing away, then I’m cleaning the mess and No one ever let him, put in the reps Gotta sow it and let it grow Hollow in the middle, It’s all in the breath And no one relates, I’ll fill in the rest alone You could get a little and throw it away But I kill for a living when I’m seeing the red zone I let Coltrane play with the rain I let the water take what it claimed The sentiment alone numbed the pain The lights outlined my window with a permanent glow Lightning found escape as soon as it came It’s all temporary Secondary nature to the primary cause My flaws found a healing sound in the pause Momentary law Lost somewhere you can’t reach with applause From the same cloth cut with a saw I’ve been gone, I had to Struggle for a little, try to forget Til its blowing away, then I’m cleaning the mess and No one ever let him, put in the reps Gotta sow it and let it grow Hollow in the middle, It’s all in the breath And no one relates, I’ll fill in the rest alone You could get a little and throw it away But I kill for a living when I’m seeing the red zone Hold me to my word like it’s all I’m worth Product of a fragile inner universe Writing prologues to a rebirth Still sing a song for the caged birds Cover all my cuts with a bandage, Tied up with a Frank verse Endless skipped like the needle froze Little less alone these days I hope it shows Heaven knows, Been a minute since I wrote my own But the compass still the plan, Peep that shit on Youngie’s hands Call me when you go insane Call me when you get there honey

Tired Hands (Interlude) 00:46
lyrics
buy track
I’ve been talking out of pocket A passenger to my conscious Other self in the cockpit I let the calendar lose The moon turned tides as the water froze Mind spoke in prose Voice wandered in the overgrowth Let it go Left it a space to breathe Grew my roots in the solid ground under the leaves Winds of the past a disease I was finally free Tired hands found peace planting seeds Let it breathe Tired hands found peace planting seeds Let it breathe These tired hands found peace planting seeds Breathe

24 in the background Steady burn in the shade So I'm never gonna stand out Living in a glass house Stones throw from the grave Steady fade into the blackout Shiny logo wanna cash out Pretty people with their hands out Twenty months in the dark On the verge of a breakdown Still breathing but it gets old Got me holding my tongue While I'm grasping for nothing I fall out of tempo Tryna see a different angle But I lost myself last night Body drifting from the flight Let go Cherry bomb in my head As I break apart my mental Talk to my like Oh, I tried to swallow my pride But I’m not chasing a lie for you If you only knew Why I cry, I cry Burn me down to ashes Throw the matches I’ve been captive I’ve been a slave to my mental state Sold my inhibition to seal a fate Caught up in a temporary place Let me blow away in the wind It’s that freedom that got me in this place I bled from that first taste Accepted the relegation to an older phase Like there was Nowhere left to go Nowhere left to see No one left to know Nothing left for me Nothing left to be Riddled in simile (The moon was in my eyes) Fell to the bottom and painted a vivid fragility (eyes) I’m the epitome (eyes) Lonely epiphany Sought the silence of a symmetry Oh, I tried to swallow my pride But I’m not chasing a lie for you If you only knew Why I cry, I cry Testing my Worth Blindly hit the ceiling never fell back to earth Lonely in my feelings but I can’t seem to learn I’ll never return Bloody Moon

Carried Away 02:54
lyrics

[I can change you I can change you] You had an awful lot to say But I bit my tongue We battled in waves Now we ain’t talking much these days- Since you called my bluff, We started to fade ‘Cause I’ve got no cards left to play Left to play Left to play and All that’s left to say Left to say Left to say is Don’t go ‘Cause we are And we ain’t Then we argue and complain I don’t really wanna live like that Sometimes we get carried away, away [I can change you] [All the same, I don’t know if I can change you x4] It’s been a long a restless day Caught up in a daze Afraid it’ll break But things are falling back in place You’ve come into frame I hope that you stay And I’ve got no cards left to play Left to play Left to play and All that’s left to say Left to say Left to say is Don’t go ‘Cause we are And we ain’t Then we argue and complain I don’t really wanna live like that Sometimes we get carried away, away [I can change you] [All the same, I don’t know if I can change you x4] ‘Cause we are And we ain’t Then we argue and complain I don’t really wanna live like that Sometimes we get carried away, away [All the same, I don’t know if I can change you]

Homegrown soul, flipmode to a daydream Never gets old run it back like you’re crazy Dream team goals break your neck like a dre beat Peach on my mind, smoking pipes, kissing daisy I don’t play to lose Buster cannon blue Charge and let it loose Lost a couple screws Ether coursing through all my veins Bring the pain attitude Homegrown soul flipmode to a daydream Never gets old run it back She’s Young Sun And you’re done son Rolling joint in the back with a steel lung Annyeong From the high bun Got that Sony taking shots like a handgun Hit the deck before I use my main Throwing lightning like a god damn tommy gun Robbing kills before my spells all drained Back on up before I light this flame Gimme a three out of five Barely alive Whole crew be feeling the vibe Slowly been losing my mind It’s a new year, fuck it We taking the ride Show me a crew that’s doing everything that we fuckin’ do Catch me on my stutter King de de, de de, coming through In the Matrix Living in the real world and it ain't shit Plugged in solely for my entertainment Kingpin Got my whole crew on flex
