Verse 1:
In my head the clock is always talking shit
In my head reacting like a little kid to it
Pre Chorus:
ball up my fists hiding my face
Cover my skin forget to taste
But mama dint raise no runner
So why am I always running
Chorus:
Find me in the middle of it
disassociating
floating above my bed
choking out the angels
Cuz if they're right
I'm wasting time
Afraid, ashamed of failing
And if they're wrong
then it's just a song
Verse 2:
In my head, I'm a character not just a writer
things I wrote would come to life and not
leave me alone behind
In my head I was always more than this
Pre Chorus:
ball up my fists hiding my face
Cover my skin forget to taste
But mama dint raise no runner
So why am I always running
Chorus:
Find me in the middle of it
disassociating
floating above my bed
choking out the angels
Cuz if they're right
I'm wasting time
Afraid, ashamed of failing
And if they're wrong
then it's just a song
Bridge:
they believe in me
I believe they’re hallucinating
they believe in me
I believe they’re hallucinating
they believe in me
I believe they’re hallucinating

Share a little smoke share a little pain
Let the neighbors complain

Red Velvet Verse:
Crazy how people always call out
Can’t take it by always dish out
Other people all you ever fuckin talk about
Like everything going good up in yoru house
But if the people in the back had a monologue
You’d have a full damn page of an epilogue
Small bite but you barkin like a big dog
Truth is you don’t really want this problems
Iconic resistance
Bitches be testin the limit
You claim it couldn’t be finished
I say I already did it
You keep lookin for issues
And ima help your ass solve em
You see the man in the mirror
I see the root of the problem
Lo Rida Verse:
He got 5 kids
got two wives
and that bitch with fake tits on the side
She got 30 inches
And a blow problem
Lost the money
For a pro to solve it
the once in the back wanna fuck on his mom
(UGHH)
too scared to take his girl to prom
I’ve watched your tape
From the back of the class
Don’t piss me off
Or I’mma run it back like
WOAAAH now I’m really in ur business bitch like
WOAAAAH bit my tongue just like a seizure bitch like
4 rooms and walk-in closet
no one every really know how you bought it
“had to have a lotta cribs. tohave a crib like this”
I had to cut a lotta tracks to cut you off like this
GooMan Verse:
Goddaaaaaaamn man
If another loud mouthed
Somebody
with another god complex
comes to me with some
Ego dream
And some mic to scream in
I’m sorry
Big head
Tell me now who made you platinum
Tell me now who gave you the platform
So you’re standing on your own six feet now huh?
At the front of the room
Cuz they pay when you dance for em
They don’t tell you when you’re standing at the back room
You get a hell of a view
You see ‘em fuck their friends, callin it money moves
like good Christian girls that suck dick for mixes
Like damn
Annie are you okay?
I got my receipts saed
From brooke to broke Chase
So I walk away with a bank full of bennys cuz
Business is done at the back of the room
Hook:
I see you creepin’, deceivin’
Just image keepin, ooo
Bitch i don’t know who you think that you talkin to
Somebody come get this fool
Cuz violence I might choose
Watching from the back of the room

VERSE 1:
been following, following my footsteps
to lands I’ve never known
tomorrowing, borrowing the goodness
of black sheep in wolf’s clothes
she’s their fallen angel
melting hellbent cold hearts made of the stone
trust me I know
PRE:
not all kings are noble
not all thrones are gold
sometimes heaven comes down to rob you of your soul
she can’t wear the white dress
her crown is made of snakes
but I’ll choose her and the underworld if they call me to the gates
CHORUS:
don’t save my soul
watch me swear to god
from inferno
he ain’t even seen the things I know
the love I can’t let go
don’t save my soul
don’t save my soul
(alright)
VERSE 2:
i’m known as a man of honor
but on her I’m divine
lowdown, flowing down her river
knelt down at her shrine
whispering her curses
salivation, salvation over wine
that’s what I like
PRE:
not all queens are royal
not all tales are told
sometimes heaven comes down to rob you of your soul
she won’t wear the white dress
her crown is made of snakes
but i’ll choose her and the underworld if they call me to the gates
CHORUS:
don’t save my soul
watch me swear to god
from inferno
he ain’t even seen the things I know
the love I can’t let go
don’t save my soul
don’t save my soul
BRIDGE:
i know i know i know i know
ain’t no sunshine in her home
i know i know i know i know
but the hellfire keeps me warm
i know i know i know i know
ain’t no sunshine in her home
i know i know i know i know
but the hellfire keeps me warm
CHORUS:
don’t save my soul
watch me swear to god
from inferno
he ain’t even seen the things I know
the love I can’t let go
don’t save my soul
don’t save my soul
don’t save my .. soul

Chorus:
You’ll never breathe if you keep sleeping with the fishes
You can’t have me if you keep fucking with these bitches
It’s not a game if everybody always misses
That’s not Jeff Bridges
That’s not Jeff Bridges
Verse 1:
what do you want from me
Yeah I’m so tired of your shitty loser tendencies
Like why’d you make us enemies?
You wanted me to stay
You smoke 10 bowls every day
Strike all that shit you promised
The Dude don’t roll on shabbos
Chorus:
You’ll never breathe if you keep sleeping with the fishes
You can’t have me if you keep fucking with these bitches
It’s not a game if everybody always misses
That’s not Jeff Bridges

Verse 2:
I slept on the floor
My rug is not here anymore
Don’t come to my door
You tied my room together
But now it’s bye forever.

You can’t have me if you keep fucking with these bitches

Verse 1
Hey are you coming over?
I’m not totally sober
Maybe we could start over one more time
We were chasing perfection
Found each other’s reflections
And a common collection of warning signs
Chorus
The highest highs, the lowest lows
The bandaged voids and patched-up holes
The volatile arguments and lovemaking
Maybe we should stay apart
And cut other from our hearts
Imagine drifting out together with the breeze
Love in waves, and codependent seas
Verse 2
No we wouldn’t have wished it
When we crashed in the shipwreck
I bet we could salvage us a raft
Floating through every ocean
Swallowing our emotions
Staying safe on the surface from both our pasts
Chorus
The highest highs, the lowest lows
The bandaged voids and patched-up holes
The volatile arguments and lovemaking
Maybe we should stay apart
And cut other from our hearts
Imagine drifting out together with the breeze
Love in waves, and codependent seas

VERSE 1:
Slow growing out of dirt
Roots shortened and it hurts
How am I supposed to find the time to fix myself
When nothing here seems to keep it’s worth
Can’t trust the cruel of his embrace
Can’t trust the blood in my own veins
I thought things were gonna change
Things tend to burn at their own pace
CHORUS:
Hand me down love, hand me down pain
Hand me down drugs, hand me down shame
I know I don’t
I don’t want the family name
Hand me down love, hand me down pain
Hand me down drugs, hand me down shame
I know I don’t
I don’t want the family name
VERSE 2:
Come and open up my chest
So I can start my heart again
Haunted by an early grave
Was it good to end that way?
CHORUS:
Hand me down love, hand me down pain
Hand me down drugs, hand me down shame
I know I don’t
I don’t want the family name
Hand me down love, hand me down pain
Hand me down drugs, hand me down shame
I know I don’t
I don’t want the family name

Verse 1:
He said no one will like me
if I try to be myself
He’s not tryna spite me
He says he wishes me well
He tells me he loves me
With his hands over my mouth
He tells me he loves me
And I try to block him out
Pre Chorus:
But what he doesn’t know is that I take it .. with no salt
I bite into his words .. like they don’t cut my mouth
Chorus:
He said that it’s love
He said that he’d save me I said
I’ll be your shadow-ooooo
but he still hates me
And when he said it, he said it so quiet…
we’re not even friends, just brothers at best…
He said it so quiet
but I heard it all so loud
But I heard it all so loud
Verse 2:
Simmer under the surface
Till it comes to a boil
Why do I make you nervous
Why am I a disappointment
Funny and charming he gets what he wants
Funny how he’d rather sell me for parts
than to hold me
Does he want to know me
Pre Chorus:
But what he doesn’t know is that I take it… with no salt
I bite into his words… like they don’t cut my mouth
Chorus:
He said that it’s love
He said that he’d save me I said
I’ll be your shadow-ooooo
but he still hates me
And when he said it, he said it so quiet
we’re not even friends, just brothers at best….
He said it so quiet
but I heard it all so loud
But I heard it all so loud
I heard it all so
I heard it all so loud

warm coffee on the patio
Randy's on the radio
everything is moving slow
I should love it here
I know this is paradise
But something’s off and don't feel right
I'm sleeping through the whole damn night
I should love it here
but it just ain't the same
arguing with my ash tray
I love you in the worst way
even though your worst days
are summertime
in paradise
the skies are blue
but you want 'em gray
I love you in the worst way
Even though your worst traits
Show all the time
And spin off mine
Til we’re walking through a hurricane
I love you in the worst way
Last year on my birthday
You took me out to celebrate
A camping trip out of the way
I know you meant well
You brought on a petty fight
I gave up and said you were right
The trip was shit, but in hindsight
don't want this with no one else
It’s not too late
Wondering why I stay
but it ain't the same
arguing with my ash tray
I love you in the worst way
even though your worst days
are summertime
in paradise
the skies are blue
but you want 'em gray
I love you in the worst way
Even though your worst traits
Show all the time
And spin off mine
Til we’re walking through a hurricane
I love you in the worst way

Why do you love me like you hate me
Why do you build me up to break me
Why do you draw me to erase me
Swimming in your water like I'm waist deep
Waist deep
I Never look before I jump in
I know you hear my heart beat thumpin
you say the two us mean something
but you're fronting
yea you fronting you fronting you fronting you fronting
I fall apart from the start when I look in your eyes
ohh but i dive
as I lie
waist deep
rescue me drowning under your saliva
i'm the glowing tinder to your burning lighter
find me in the fire
feel me in the fire
find me in the fire
feel me in the fire
rescue me drowning under your saliva
i'm the glowing tinder to your burning lighter
find me in the fire
feel me in the fire
find me in the fire
feel me in the fire
under the surface
you toss me around and then you hurt me
make me feel worthless
scam of a purchase
but after the first kiss
I've been in your service
do it on purpose
finish the chorus
now back to the verses
lying awake while you stay sleep
you're the diamond that I can't keep
say I'm pretty but the talk's cheap
Swimming in your water like I'm waist deep
Waist deep
I fall apart from the start when I look in your eyes
ohh but i dive
as I lie
waist deep
rescue me drowning under your saliva
i'm the glowing tinder to your burning lighter
find me in the fire
feel me in the fire
find me in the fire
feel me in the fire
rescue me drowning under your saliva
i'm the glowing tinder to your burning lighter
find me in the fire
feel me in the fire
find me in the fire

FIRE HOEZ

sick of feeling like
I'm fallin far behind
probly isn't the best thing
but it's always on my mind
I miss those starry nights
where there's no finish lines
listening to crickets as they're humming along
somewhere in the pines
well the city
has lots to give
but I wanna find peace
where it really lives
In the heartbeat of Georgia
Feeling easy in Georgia
Eating peaches in Georgia
mm-mm-mm
In the heart beat of Georgia
There's something waiting there for ya
Ya gotta find it in Georgia
Mm-mm-mm
blowing through the trees
a quiet morning breeze
end the day with the milky way
with friends as family
Staying up til three
sharing all our dreams
Given up not doing enough
For priceless memories
well the city
has lots to give
but I wanna find peace
where it really lives
In the heartbeat of Georgia
Feeling easy in Georgia
Eating peaches in Georgia
mm-mm-mm
In the heart beat of Georgia
There's something waiting there for ya
Ya gotta find it in Georgia
Mm-mm-mm
Wherever we are
Wherever we go
We'll always find home
In the heartbeat of Georgia
Feeling easy in Georgia
Eating peaches in Georgia

Even if I walked a thousand barefoot miles I wouldn't change
My heart's a rock that reverberates
glide over the water softer ripples on the lake
I'm the silence I'm the red thread of the ache
ohh What was built will always break
I will remain, I am the strain
Push a boulder up a mountainside, with black ash in my teeth
My child the curse is the release
When there's blood in the water, give the one-eyed dog the lead
I am the stranger, not the father nor the priest
ooh til the sun sets in the east
I will remain I am the strain
Ooooo ooo-oooo ooo-oooo ooo-oo-oo-oo ooo-oooo
Ooooo ooo-oooo ooo-oooo ooo-oo-oo-oo ooo-oooo
Ooooo ooo-oooo ooo-oooo ooo-oo-oo-oo ooo-oooo
Ooooo ooo-oooo ooo-oooo ooo-oo-oo-oo ooo-oooo
but your bones already know that, going forward is to go back
but your bones already know thaaaaaat
but your bones already know that, going forward is to go back
but your bones already know thaaaaaat
When the red is in your eyes and the blue evaporates
You'll find the answer in the wake
If your head is heavy you already know my name
I am the fire from which everything is made
ohh What was built will always break
I will remain, I am the strain
Ooooo ooo-oooo ooo-oooo ooo-oo-oo-oo ooo-oooo
Ooooo ooo-oooo ooo-oooo ooo-oo-oo-oo ooo-oooo
Ooooo ooo-oooo ooo-oooo ooo-oo-oo-oo ooo-oooo

I’ve been
sleep walking til the night ends
One second turns to thousands
Maybe it’s better to run
Destructive
my thoughts will get you fucked up
Slow burning in my lungs and
I’m bout to light another one
Nother one
eyes on the walls
Don’t get involved
Screaming to god
Wherever you are
Wherever you are
Shot in the dark
dying with stars
At least I’m drowning in the light
turning my nightmares into daydreams, daydreams
One hand behind my back Imma do it in my sleep
Lost it and it made me, made me
Unrecognizable
I’m fucking through, bleeding blue
Turning my nightmares into daydreams, daydreams
And I don’t want to wake up
So don’t wake me up
Visions that I lose like A dream I can’t remember
I’ve been seeing red everyday like it’s December
I don’t wanna go back
I don’t wanna get out
Even when I’m half dead
I’ll stare down
eyes on the walls
Don’t get involved
Screaming to god
Wherever you are
Wherever you are
Shot in the dark
dying with stars
At least I’m drowning in the light
turning my nightmares into daydreams, daydreams
One hand behind my back Imma do it in my sleep
Lost it and it made me, made me
Unrecognizable
I’m fucking through, bleeding blue
Turning my nightmares into daydreams, daydreams
And I don’t want to wake up
So don’t wake me up

Like walking barefoot in my backyard
Ooo ooo we don’t we don’t need the good old days
Ooo ooo even when I’m breakin down I'm safe
This shit ain’t easy but it’s not that hard
Follow the breadcrumbs when you feel lost
Ooo ooo we don’t we don’t need the good old days
Ooo ooo even when you’re breakin down you’re safe
YOU'RE MY HIDING PLACE
Brown walls, So small
Bumpin elbows
Never really bothered me
We got all the space we need
When I bark you bite
Still on the same side
loving fighting everything that’s in between
you're holding myyyyyyy face in your hands
and nooooooow I understaaaand
This shit ain’t easy but it’s not that hard
Like walking barefoot in my backyard

What you mother fuckas looking at
Ain't you seen a dude drop bars back to back to back
Acting like you special rolling in that cadillac
Throwin' ya'll into cardiac catching hands like a punching bag
Cuz these lines is way too potent, it gon' make em crack
Dealing bars like they been asking where the zannies at
But it's more than that, I'm servin' ya'll like door dash
Of course, I'm forging the future like I'm the fucking foreman
This road is only for souls prepared to give it all
Climbing heights so high I ain't afraid to fall
Cuz every time that I did my DNA evolved
Look at my history, ain't a mystery you can solve
Scaling the walls, ceilings made of glass for me to break
Read my palms, read the signs I been one of the greats
It’s fated, 5 year plan I gotta start with the first day
I started the worst and finish first place
And I’ll run outta time Waiting for y’all
I just keep my head down head down
Keep my head down head down
Cuz one day all these legends gonna Fall
So imma keep my head down head down
Keep the vibe up and head down
I'm holding on to all these dreams
It's crazy how they so much closer than they always seem
I'm finding every way to change the scene and cause a scene
A change of scenery, greenery never bothered me
It's that perspective check the talking heads lobotomy
A psycho killer on the beat I leave no room to breathe
I pour my mind into the game this ain't monopoly
Not saying sorry, domination's my neurology
Ready or not, already bossa nova
Too many models, calling me Casanova
I'mma call a cab I don't need no validation
I'm already late for work, that shit feel like a vacation
Race against the clock so my time is never wasted
Impatient I make a drop and it's rockin' round the nation
So save it I've memorized the life that I'm chasing,
While you motherfuckers sipping I been spittin in the basement
I don't stop
And I’ll run outta time Waiting for y’all
I just keep my head down head down
Keep my head down head down
Cuz one day all these legends gonna Fall
So imma keep my head down head down
Keep the vibe up and head down

If had a penny for every time I went to war

Till I kiss the ground
No redemption now

Fallen King, broken laws, crumbling castle walls
You can watch me drown, but I still got the crown
No redemption now

I can’t recall, was it summer or fall
When I first told you I think we could have it all
Losing my mind, wasting the light
I just can’t go wrong I finally got it right
Your the lover I’ve been waiting for
The answer I’ve been praying for
I am hopeless I am hanging on for life
Without you
Without you
It feels like midnight in the afternoon
It feels like midnight in the afternoon
I can’t read your mind I’m not gonna try
I'm afraid to fall for you I'll take the dive
You shine so bright Almost makes me want to hide
Throw me in your fire I’ll be fine
You're the lover of I’ve been burning for
The answer I’ve been yearning for
I am hopeful that our love can last for life
Without you
Without you
It feels like midnight in the afternoon
It feels like midnight in the afternoon
I had to get out of my own God damn way
(Midnight in the afternoon)
for you to come and fill the space
(Midnight in the afternoon)
Midnight in the afternoon
(Midnight in the afternoon)
Midnight in the afternoon
(Midnight in the afternoon)
(Midnight in the afternoon)
Without you
(Midnight in the afternoon)
(Midnight in the afternoon)
I had to get out of my own God damn way
(Midnight in the afternoon)
For you to come and fill the space
(Midnight in the afternoon)
Midnight in the afternoon
(Midnight in the afternoon)
(Midnight in the afternoon)
Without you
Without you

Im feeling good keeping my head down
And I like who I am now
I thought it was once in a lifetime
picket white fence and your dumb mercedes
i feel crazy keeping your stuff

i think maybe you're still in love
and i'm over it
over all of it

I'm like 'oh my god'
always pickin fights
finally gonna finish it

while I'm hangin up

You flippin your script like an actor
Never come clean 'til after
You said that little things don't matter
Until they all turn to disasters
i feel crazy keeping your stuff
finally sobered up from your drugs
and you call me crying saying you hate our break up
i think maybe you're still in love
and i'm over it
over all of it
all the shadiness
maybe gemini's
all like startin shit

I'm like 'oh my god'

crying on the subway again
mascara down my face
don’t mind if people see it
most likely can relate
trying my best to drain out
the pollution in my lungs
deep down, i wanna stay, but
on these days i wanna run
wouldn’t it be really nice
to leave it all behind
leave it behind
move to a cabin in the woods
I’d do it if i could
do it if i could
thousands of miles away
phone calls are getting old
look out at fire escapes
these days are hard to hold
thinking bout leaving this place
to somewhere more remote
float on my back in a lake
evergreen trees and oak
wouldn’t it be really nice
to leave it all behind
leave it behind
move to a cabin in the woods
we’d do it if we could
do it if we could
oh wouldn’t it be nice
to leave it all behind
to leave it all behind
a cabin in the woods
we’d do it if we could
we’d do it if we could
oh wouldn’t it be nice
to leave it all behind
to leave it all behind
a cabin in the woods
we’d do it if we could
we’d do it if we could

It’s like flooding on the Bayou
Hurricanes in Biscayne Bay
We’ve seen tornadoes in Oklahoma, the ground move in California
Wildfires so fast we can’t escape
Fault lines, fault lines, doesn’t matter this time
Who’s wrong, who’s right? When it’s scary outside
Hold me close, please don’t let go
We’re safe inside these fault lines
These fault lines
The weight of unmet expectations
These vices I can’t quit
I’ve been strung out on the sofa lost in Arizona
How do you love a man like this
With my fault lines, fault lines, doesn’t matter this time
Who’s wrong, who’s right? When it’s scary inside
Hold me close, please don’t let go
You’re safe inside these fault lines
These fault lines
You’ve got faith and we’ve got time
When the levee breaks we’ll stay dry
On these fault lines, fault lines, doesn’t matter this time
Who’s wrong, who’s right? When it’s scary at night
Hold me close, please don’t let go
We’re safe inside these fault lines
These fault lines
These fault lines
These fault lines

You’re spinning like a ceiling fan
Wide awake at 3AM
Missing you a little bit more right now
I end up overthinking
But when I let it sink in
It takes some getting lost before we get found

Everything we’ve been through

Someone cares like you do, it’s so
Wild
Moments I should have noticed
Start coming into focus now

Wild
If I had it my way
The head that’s on this highway
Wouldn’t flash by so quick
Can’t be so scared to slow down
After all this time I know now
I’ve never been loved like this
Wild
Everything we’ve been through
Wild
Someone cares like you do, it’s so

(Soft like the ocean breeze)
(Sweet like a summer dream)
(Crazy how the years go past)
(The fireflies they come and go)
(Love someone you let them know)
(Grateful now I understand that)
Your love is so wild
(Soft like the ocean breeze)
(Sweet like a summer dream)
I’ve been swimming in the fire baby
(Crazy how the years go past)
Your love is so wild
(The fireflies they come and go)
(Love someone you let them know)
I don’t want to miss it baby
(Grateful now I understand that)
