Why can’t we just all be on the same level Baffled why you wanna be a rebel, Judging people over tidy tables Why can’t we just all be on the same level Baffled why you wanna be a rebel, Judging people over tidy tables I’ve got this planet earth pride And I can’t hide, I love everybody in it Blue brown green yellow peoples Men being ladies, ladies being men: You’re winnin Every time you be yourself you’re in it I don’t wanna be another solemn soul There’s a whole world full of empty roles To be better, braver, valued, kinder spill it Your feelings are valid And our time here is calloused Worn over 10x faster than a carousel In a mock speed palace I need real love, real life, real friends Mending bad relationships they have come to an end Spend me, mend me, and then unbend me while I lend you my heart, take it all The more we give, the less we fall And let it all go, let it all go Why can’t we just all be on the same level Baffled why you wanna be a rebel, Judging people over tidy tables Why can’t we just all be on the same level Baffled why you wanna be a rebel, Judging people over tidy tables But hey, I found the treasure It was inside, inner pleasure And I’ve never been better * Happiness forever isn’t getting rich, But being virtuous, that’s my endeavor * No one sees eye to eye on creators So let’s not berate each other on our poor behavior Only you can be your savior Only you create the flavor Only you can be a good neighbor Only you can pick you up When you’ve lost the flavor Zest for life, best is right, live for night live for day time Fight less, feel more, evolve, fall back then resolve Why can’t we just all be on the same level Baffled why you wanna be a rebel, Judging people over tidy tables Why can’t we just all be on the same level Baffled why you wanna be a rebel, Judging people over tidy tables I’ve got hobbies but I wanna dabble in love Don’t you know that that’s the only way to rise above I’ve got hobbies but I wanna dabble in love Don’t you know that that’s the only way to rise above So why can we just all be on the same level So why can we just all be on the same level So why can we just all be on the same level

First Love 03:58
I've only got eyes for you But baby I love looking at my new bass And though I hold you closest to me I let my mic touch my lips cause it helps me sing I've only got eyes for you Until I close my eyes and hear the music And then I'm lost in the fluidity of movement I find that groove.. I find that.. I find that groove yeah I find that.. I find that groove, I find that groove We can still be lovers but music is my mother music is my brother music is my boulder that'll always hold me, that'll always be free Ya'll feel me? Ya'll feel me? Yea We can still be lovers but music is my mother music is my brother music is my boulder that'll always hold me, that'll always be free Ya'll feel me? Ya'll feel me? I only got eyes for you And they stray when the third makes its way past the main frame I know i could never forget this rhythm embedded Script to edit written in the genesis measure it On six strings eighty eight keys four strings Kick hat snare one mic and a beast to feed I got the collar and lead I got some peace to keep I ain"t clean but I'm tryna make it part of my dream Say I've only got lines for you when I'm tryna synchronize the depth of what I feel inside With words to be the only guide I've gotta hit a harmony to set it free This echo on the breeze could be the best of me You were there for me when I was down the only peace of clarity I found was paring with the sound Starin' down my every thought about the distance That tone that lies betwixt us I've never been the same since I found that groove I found that groove This sight could make moves I found that groove I found that groove yeah We can still be lovers but music is my mother music is my brother music is my boulder that'll always hold me, that'll always be free Ya'll feel me? Ya'll feel me? Yea We can still be lovers but music is my mother music is my brother music is my boulder that'll always hold me, that'll always be free Ya'll feel me? Ya'll feel me? I wanna let the music take me like you take me Wakin' to the beat, shakin' to the beat, it's the sound that saves me Like a wave I rock and like waves we roll Like the flow we push, like the ebb we pull Can't help but move, I found that groove I found that groove, yeah I found that, I found that groove I found that, I found that groove, I found that groove We can still be lovers but music is my mother music is my brother music is my boulder that'll always hold me, that'll always be free Ya'll feel me? Ya'll feel me? Yea We can still be lovers but music is my mother music is my brother music is my boulder that'll always hold me, that'll always be free Ya'll feel me? Ya'll feel me? I've only got eyes for you (But baby I love lookin' at my new bass) I've only got eyes for you (I let my mic touch my lips cause it helps me sing) I've only got eyes for you (Until I close my eyes and hear that music) I've only got eyes for you And then I'm lost in the fluidity of movement

Pen to Page 03:22
When my pen touch the page, I display Words on my mind taking shape (I gotta get it down) Phrase on the page is my escape Give me one more breath to take I’m tryina step the straight the narrow winding meditate Negotiate with the left and the right side of my brain Every thought another link locked in my chain Forged in the flame with the joy and the pain I can’t decipher whether it’s holding me down or keeping me grounded We mortals be dumbfounded surrounded say loud, yes! I am the obstacle and there can be no obstacle my fire cannot topple yo My mamma fed me vegetables and told me that when I was grown nothing would be impossible I botched a couple possibles they showed me what I need to know the more we buy the more we’re sold The more we let go the more we hold so I gotta gotta let this ink flow and let the voice in me show We be the gospel self-taught apostles conquer thoughts hostile passion is colossal Conquer thoughts hostile passion is colossal Conquer thoughts hostile passion is colossal Conquer thoughts hostile passion is colossal passion is passion is When my pen touch the page, I display Words on my mind taking shape (I gotta get it down) Phrase on the page is my escape Give me one more breath to take I write to recite my plight With words that will give you sight Into this amazing life But ever so fragile mind I find, If I don’t get what’s on my brain on the page I go insane, and I never wanna do that I gain, so much more When I take time to rhyme I fill my time with scribbled pieces of paper no matter what kinda scrap I’m in I chime in by singin proud I wanna pump up the crowd I get down I get loud So let’s get down let’s get loud I get down I get loud So let’s get down let’s get loud (I come to get it when I get it down) When my pen touch the page, I display Words on my mind taking shape (I gotta get it down) Phrase on the page is my escape Give me one more breath to take Take take taking what I want to be a Wait wait wait don’t wanna wait and see Need need need it I know I really need some simple sense of relief Now I’m a born of a ghost that outlasted it’s master Was cast with a mask and a pension to chapter the scattered matter Scribble the drivel and giving it a little rhythm with the mention of some sentiment I only know it benefits me though my uncle told me gifts were meant for sharing with me the people Y’all know every day we shadowing box with that ego don’t know how it speaks until you read it on the sheet If y’all know what I’m talkin about then grab a pen and jot it down If y’all know what I’m talkin about then grab a pen and jot it down If ya’ll know what I’m talkin about then grab a pen and jot it down if you Jot down jot down the jot down When my pen touch the page, I display Words on my mind taking shape (I gotta get it down) Phrase on the page is my escape Give me one more breath to take When my pen touch the page, I display Words on my mind taking shape (I gotta get it down) Phrase on the page is my escape Give me one more breath to take

Windy 02:58
Leaves break most structures remain But we stay safe indoors Some say they’d rather brave the wind It’s insane out there but they don’t care Charity can you hide I’d rather brave the wind And keep my pride than go inside Don’t pity me I’d rather freeze than kiss your feet Leave me in the street Cause I don’t care Leave me in the rain cause I don’t care I’m perfectly satisfied out here Just leave me in the rain cause I don’t care I’m perfectly satisfied out here Leaves break most structures remain But we stay safe indoors Some say they’d rather brave the wind It’s insane out there but they don’t care

Rage 04:02
How you Livin when you’re seeing red Rage is why I play I play my rage Anger fuel my heart, Heart fuel the anger in you (How you living when you’re seein red) How you sleepin in an early bed) Can you feel me seething The devil is teething, The devil is new The devil is old and blue Just like you Just like you Old soul Too true Crude muse Blue view Refuse accuse reuse remove behoove the scratching at the open wound Not through until the deed is done We’re rollin the mud to spill blood when feast comes Candle lit you can smell the lanolin traveling subconsciously handling thought of what’s unraveling What’s the price what’s the cost What’s the vice who’s the boss Only when given life Then can you fully witness loss I see myself in the rage that swells within you nothing special Tell me that this life is mine treat me gentle I can’t say this life is mine until I’m not afraid and made something special Fuck the rest when is the mission just to let go Captive to the comfort torn asunder watch it plunder Count the numbers such a wonder where’s your mother How she lookin in an early bed how you livin when you seein red Just like you I don’t like who I am When I’m mad but when I’m mad I’m not sad And I don’t like who I am When I follow the plan, the man (Don’t follow the man, Don’t follow the plan, He’ll lead you down a dirty path) It’s a collar with a license Keeps the pet from being frightened It’s the hand doing the feeding Everything you needed If you believe it How you livin when you’re seeing red How you sleepin in an early bed

I can’t get out Of here A life Is meant to be lived Outside No one can hide When you’re stuck inside There’s nowhere to hide And no end in sight There’s no end in sight There’s no end in sight I’ve gotta get out Of here Hopefully a loan Won’t put you in debt For life Harder and harder to face Government gender and race Everything seems so complacent Apathy empathy simply adjacent Humanity wrought with the taste The bitter the battered the wasted Too many places to hide Staying in place isn’t staying alive Going outside doesn’t mean you are ready to die Didn’t decide on the flag and the pride Never could trust the likes Listing your privilege witness the price This Is your mother’s reflection Worn are the hands of affection Nothing is free not even we Air that you breath can be taken so easily The disease killing in the streets could be you and me I’m reaching for some solidarity I can’t get out When I’m stuck inside Stuck inside my cell The end is in sight It’s nearer than I’d like The end is sight Let me out Of here I’m alive There’s no where to hide

Givin' up 04:15
Giving up giving up giving up giving up Give it up Do you feel like your life is a question(giving up giving up on you, giving up giving up on me) Give it up Do you feel like your life is a question Your very existence hanging on the essence a thread Measure it In investment persistence neglect and indifference In whether you engage or resist it Bet on it Too many of the many want the drive but don’t got any Too heavy work a plenty What you wanna stack a penny What you gonna trade What you want in life What you tryna hustle in this game Is the pleasure worth the pain This passion ain’t the same when we’re snuffin out the flame Do you feel like your life is a prison Your every emotion posing as a victim Can you identify Betwixt the fear and the wisdom Every disposition that’s been holding you back when you listen Decipher the fragile mind Frust ration Medicate the contemplation To heavy work a plenty Why you tryna disengage What you wanna change What you gotta face What you want a purpose in this life Does the pleasure lead the reins This passion ain’t the same when we’re snuffin out the flame Do you feel like your life is a question Giving up giving up giving up giving up Give it up Take the hurt put it in a box Stir it up pop the top off(give it up) Pour it out, watch it empty the cup That was once half full, ya see what happens when the pain stirs up? Oh But they don’t wanna see you in pain Then don’t wanna see it when they give up again And I don’t wanna see them in pain I don’t wanna witness if they give up again Don’t quit, they can fight this A winning bull in a stadium of liars Be the bull, leave out the shit Be the shit and leave out the bull It’s Perseverance Don’t come and tell me that you want the drive but don’t got any Too heavy work a plenty What you one the many many What you gotta face What do you create Whats a real purpose in this life Is the pleasure worth the pain This passion ain’t the same when we’re snuffin out the flame do you feel like your life is a question give it up

Wash Out 04:47
What do you see what do you look like Take your skin off and stretch it out I’ve got my fingers in the paint these stains won’t wash out this image is a part of me Wash out I want it now gratification Wash out I want it now something to take in Mixing colors into one redefine with shape and size when color is gone this line is what we see this mask is a face to me Wash out I want it now gratification Wash out I want it now something to take Take your skin off and stretch it out I’ve got my fingers in the paint these stains won’t wash out this image is a part of me Wash out I want it now gratification Wash out I want it now something to take

In Person 03:35
It’s tempting Cause I’m feelin alright. Lonely.. Can I spend the night ? Hardly, you’re riddled with disease. Help me, I’m not sick, won’t you let me in please It’s hard (I’m not real on a screen) Hard to get along (you know exactly what I mean) Through a phone (through a telephone) This is all wrong (this is all wrong) It’s not (we aren’t real on a screen) How we’re meant to be (we were meant to be free) Off a telephone (you can see me at home) Get off the telephone I wanna see you I wanna see you In person I wanna see you I wanna see you In person I wanna see you I wanna see you In person I wanna see you I wanna see you Face to face You’re thirsty for a piece of the pie Well I’m hungry for a slice of life Is it living.. to ignore the outside? I’m thirsty for some sweet sunshine. It’s hard (I’m not real on a screen) Hard to get along (you know exactly what I mean) Through a phone (through a telephone) This is all wrong (this is all wrong) It’s not (we aren’t real on a screen) How we’re meant to be (we were meant to be free) Off a telephone (you can see me at home) Get off the telephone I wanna see you I wanna see you In person I wanna see you I wanna see you In person I wanna see you I wanna see you In person I wanna see you I wanna see you Face to face

I've Got Air 02:38
Hey you Sheep man Open You’re eyes Smell the Coffee Bitter With lies Sheep are blind Nippin at four heels Whole flock trippin chew cud for the last meal Rather have a dog than wolf Or a sheep than a goat It’s the temper and the coat One goes one follows I’m a witch I float Can’t walk on water Won’t breed for the slaughter I’m the reap and the sow Don’t keep what you know Only really own what we seek and we do Theres fear in the truth What’s clear in the news When it targets you I stray okay go way Be safe okay touché Angry where’s the love babe Life is death my god it’s something I feel slightly ashamed Like someone’s playing a game And everybody’s jumping at the chance to get in the race What chance can you take When the strays get ate and the strong backs break I do I do I don’t I don’t I won’t Stock up For things I need Cause I need Fresh air The things Don’t please I’ve got air I’ve got it I’ve got it I’ve got air I’ve got air
