True

Everyone you meet
Is unaware of the obstacles that you face
Unaware of the times you’ve spent on your face
Wondering why me
And why now
Everyone you see
Walking the same ground today
Walking underneath the sunny rays
Of life
There’s a way to be
Here, now, and unaffected
Not unaware

Art
00:34
|

I am not trapped within these walls
I'd learn that if I could get out of my own way
Spending life terrified that I can't go outside today, its too much
Can't forget the feeling of that beautiful month of May
I'll feel it again, I'll live again
Making art is the hardest thing to do when it's all you wanna do.

The Split
01:07
|

You better check the expiration date before you get torn to pieces (blown away)
Did not recognize the flowers hue have they always been that way? (my mind’s a decent place)
You’ll get torn in two like the split (walking on the earth to collect my zinc)
Waiting for the day to pass so i can see the next

End It All
00:42
|

The sweetest thing you ever said to me wasn't a thing at all
It's the love you shared with me when I wanted to end it all
When I wanted to end it all

Mess You Made
00:55
|
|||
Taking it easy, taking it slow
Taking it the only way I know to go
Taking it easy, taking it slow
And you're stuck in the mess you made
And you hope it doesn't escalate
Yeah you're stuck in the mess you made
And you hope it doesn't escalate

What's the name of that book you loaned me to read?
Take a picture of it and send it to me
I get it so caught up in my head sometimes
But I don't wanna die
You could be the one
Or you could just be someone
You could be the one
Or you could just be someone
I get so caught up in my head sometimes
Cause I don't wanna die

Tightrope

I’m on a tightrope
Watching the world go
Watching the time go
Right before my eyes
I won’t give up
No, I will stand up
I know I will stand up
I know I’m capable
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m gonna tell the truth
So when will my time come?
Watch for the outcome
We wait for the outcome
It’s not being told to me
I won’t give up
No, I will stand up
I know I will stand up
I know I’m capable
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m on a tightrope
Watching the world go
Watching the time go
Right before my eyes
I won’t give up
No, I will stand up
I know I will stand up
I know I’m capable
When will my time come?
Watch for the outcome
We wait for the outcome
It’s not being told to me
I won’t give up
No, I will stand up
I know I’m gonna stand up
I know I’m capable
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m gonna tell the truth
To: you.

Towards
02:49
|
|||
You were alone, all alone in a crowded space
Taking precautions only you would take
I saw us dancing together in my thoughts
Don't give up on yourself, it's not who you are
I wanna hold you in the highest regard
Flashing glimpses in the static car
I would have always told you to be proud
You have overcome and you've drowned out the sound.

Homies

It’s funny cause i always wanted to rap
But i could never wrap my head around the fact that I would just be talking.
Talking at a certain pace so I could get my cadence up, raising my patience.
It’s mindblowing what the human body can do.
Have you thought about it?
And what you can do as a human being is top tier.
I’m not even seeing how many things we can see.
I mean, look at the TV.
What do you see?
Do you have a will to be?
Or am I just a wilderbeast?
Are we all just wildebeasts?
Pining for the same same same same over and over again
A gain is nothing if nothing happens.
So what do you call it?
What do you call it?
I don’t know.
But until we meet again, until we meet again
I hope you have a good night
Thank you for coming, my homies.
