VERSE 1
“Oh he's so nice”... I always hear you say
“He's sweet and kind... But I... don't think of him that way”
I'm so your type... Your parents like me too
The perfect guy... But not good enough for you
VERSE 2
You only call.... when you need a hand
Or you need to talk... bout how there's no good men
I've heard it all...before... but I still stay on the line
One day I'll press... ignore... til then, I'll be that guy
PC
And I'll wait...for the day... I can change... your mind
And I'll waste... all my time
CHORUS
Stuck inside your friendzone. There's nowhere else I can go
I can tell you wish I wouldn't try. I can read between your vague replies
Stuck inside your friendzone. I guess that I've always known
I wonder if it's worse to say goodbye. I'd rather be alone than live a lie
Stuck inside your friendzone
VERSE 3
I keep it cool... inside... and hide the way I feel
I know the rules... but I'm... not sure I like the deal
I try to show... my best... and let you figure out
But I won't hold... my breath... For you to come around
RAP
I get it, you don't mind the distance
You don't like decisions, but I know that I've captured your interest,
What is it? We different? Let's get to specifics
Am I too big to get into twisted positions?
I'm kiddin, but I'm not... I'm smitten by the thought
Of you and I, do or die, thickening the plot
Of this fairy tale ending, so gimme what you got
Don't build me up buttercup, don't break my heart.

VERSE 1
I gots the velvet vocals smokin on the hookah
Talking to my Audio Technica bout the future
Wonder if I'm ever gonna (ticky) turn the table
And get up and on that horse and ride a rhyme right out the stable
I feel like Vonnegut, when envisioning tomorrow
But like Dali, melting clocks, I know my time is only borrowed
Never wallow in the sorrow, cause my pain is what I've made it
I'm reaching for the stars, so I expect to stretch for greatness
Debating every thought like “is it worthy” no it's not
So I'll waste another night of thinking, drinking till I drop
Wake up in the spot, prompt at 12 oclock
Record another rapper, selling dreams already bought
Stress won't ever stop, cause it's the poison that I'm sippin'
Misfortune is the chorus in a song I haven't written
Distortions kind of fitting, it echoes when I'm singin'
Crying out like wah-wah, for a life I'm never livin'
CHORUS
Say, oh!, this is not the way that it was supposed to go.
What am I missing?
I say, oh!, this is not the way that I thought, that I would know.
What are these visions?
VERSE 2
This music is a nuisance, but a therapeutic function
I bump it cause I love it, I bump it cause I love
Dammit, I'm redundant, but at least I love the subject
Props to all the puppet's living life like their above it
I'm just not strong enough to settle down, sorta chill
Plant my seed, feel the heat, absorb it in like chlorophyll
I'm less than confident, I'm captain obvious
I bob my head a bit whenever my subconscious spits
I keep my heart on the same sleeve that I wipe snot
I keep my toes inside the holes of these white socks
And every seat is like a gamble that it might break
So I sit gently trying not to make this earth quake
I rocks that fuzzy double-vision goin cross-eyed
When I walks in, target on sight
My words are fumba-mumbalin', got me tongue-tied
Fuck it, I'm goin in, kamakazi, bonzai
BRIDGE
Across the distance, pure ambition takes a hold of me
It only seems to thrive when I'm asleep
Apparitions, visions of what I'm supposed to be
Only visit in my dreams

VERSE 1
Say Boy.... dontcha front, put em up
Standing all tough won't get anything you want from me
I'm undefeated in the game
Say Boy... I just wanna play rough,
land punch after punch, so ya better step it up to me
Baby there's pleasure in the pain
PC
I won't hesitate to take you down
I'mma deliver a head blow, one like you never had before
If you think you can handle me now
Just relax, and brace yourself, be prepared to be knocked out
CHORUS
TKO.... Ah, ah, ah – I'm gonna drop ya
Down but I dont need twelve rounds
TKO.... Ah, ah, ah – I'm gonna pop ya
One touch gonna turn you out
TKO.... Whatcha plan of attack,
Can't talk tough with your back to the mat
TKO.... Ah, ah, ah – I'm gonna knock ya
TKO, I'mma knock you out
VERSE 2
Say Boy.... Gloves up, dip and duck
Mistake move, no u aint quick enough to spar
Baby I'll tear your world apart
Say Boy.... Try your best, better luck
Left, Right, Jab, Cross, Hook, Uppercut so hard
Baby I'll leave you seeing stars
RAP
Imma put you down like Frazier. Down goes Frazier
Delivering combinations you weren't anticipating
My moves 'll knock you into a coma
And the only way you'll be awakened is by my body's aroma
See I'm not just talking thrills, baby I'm the real deal
Stop the fight when I bite you, Evander Holyfield
And you know that I can handle myself
I'll knock you down and lay you out like nobody else
Yo, did I hear you moan, let me get you some help
I know you like the way I do it, please take off your belt

VERSE 1
I'm feelin super duper dandy,
Sorta like my dick feels, when I get a handy
Sittin on the sand beach, sippin on a shandy
Life aint really all that bad with a plan B
I'mma bang a Brandi, lookin like a Joe Dirt
Walkin round Walmart, barely ever sober
Body of black bear, Braid ya man's back hair
Belly hangin over, yellin “Doh”, like Homer
Bet you diggin all these mental images
They show up like Jehovah’s witnesses, in your villages
Every now and then, they gonna creep into your Christmases
No luck, no fucks were given in these instances
So what, if my girl's made of rubber,
I blow her up, tough, and she's a freak under covers,
She aint the jealous type, she don't mind me pokin others
and even when she squeaks, I still love her.
CHORUS
I'mma go fast, I'mma go hard, I'mma do whatever I may
I'mma break bad, I'mma go strong, flexing like bulls on parade
Aint no more missin, wishin. I'll be livin, like I might just die that way
When I go, they'll all say, not a single fuck was given that day
VERSE 2
Im... out of my mind, but I'm also out of medicine
To keep myself from stripping down to britches out at Bennigans
Stealin mozzerella sticks, Threatening the residents
And flippin off the cameras gettin panoramic evidence
My adrenaline will fly me off to neverland
But then again, I wonder if I'm better off, irrelevant
you think I'd be embarrassed, but my form is so the rarest
Like Captain America after that arrogant experiment.
Play me like a clarinet, I'll trample you like elephants
Choke you like a spoonful of cinnamon, get it in
Shut you down, call it quits, quicker than the government
And like the government, when your running, you just aint functioning
I'll bite ya face boi, high on bath salts
Lookin like the zombie apocalypse, when I'm mad dog
Run like frogger on the highway, in sandals
Yellin, “ugh”, like Rick Ross

VERSE 1
You don't even know / Whatcha do to me.
With the lights down low / It's like we're singing in harmony
Now you're in control / So you take the lead
Up and away we go / across the galaxy
CHORUS
Fly - Fly - Fly me to the moon. Nothing in this world that I'd rather do
Fly - Fly - Fly me to the moon. Take a trip for two. Just me and you
VERSE 2
I can feel your heart, as it starts to race
And the slightest touch, keeps me floating, no gravity
I won't slow you down / I won't hesitate
Aint nowhere to go, let's get lost in space
BREAKDOWN
Baby I can treat you better (treat you better)
We can fly when we're together (we can fly)
No matter the time or weather (time or weather)
I'll keep you up high forever (2x)
(Baby can you fly-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah me to the moon) (in the background)
BRIDGE
Hey Houston, we got no problems,
No worries, Hakuna Matata
Me and my chick on that rocket ship,
Bout to blast off quick to that lunar environment
… I could make you chase,
But I can't wait, I want a taste
I'm light years ahead of you, lookin for a better view
Baby you incredible, lost in space

Slumber - Heart-cuffed
03:38
|
|||
VERSE 1
...Tic Toc... no Kesha.
Hands on the clock they apply all the pressure
Gave you some time to decide about whether
or not you'd be all mine forever, and ever
Whatever, I stupidly used to think I had a clue
Thought I knew the way to make it worth the wait to get to you
Got no response every time I tried to play it cool
So now I'm rollin through with razor blades and lemon juice
I'll smother you... with love... like a puppy
You're barking hard, but you'll be my cuddle buddy
All summer boo... I'm your shadow like it's sunny
Imma mold you up like putty, till the day you say you love me
No Alejandro, but I make this lady gaga
Got her singing high notes, like Phantom of the Opera
Says I'm the devil, but don't ever wear prada
I'mma bad boy, notorious, she calls me BIG Poppa
PRE-CHORUS
Lightly put, I see you think it's bizarre
The better moments in life usually are
I bet you never thought I'd take it this far
But I can't let you go
CHORUS
Girl you got me heart-cuffed, chained up to a hot love
Baby would you take this spell off of me now
Girl you got me heart-cuffed, now you're gonna feel what
It's like to not escape it, there's no way out
VERSE 2
Overly focused on emotions, I'm so infatuated
I'm hopelessly devoted to this notion I've created
The closer that we're growin, the further I'mma take it
I'm locking you for days in the basement, embrace it,
Like a chain-linked bracelet, we're connected, never broken
Purely amazing, like that number nine potion
Got passionate persuasion, I'm guessing that I'm hoping
that one day you'll wanna take it to the open...I'm joking
I'm pokin fun, never meant to be this selfish
But your heart is what I want, even if it's someone else's
Straddling the line between persistent and obsessive
I guess I'm just jealous when the dust all settles
But the lust won't let up, I can't let you go
I'm holding onto history, just like Pluto
We been through so much, you're calling it pseudo
But you know, I'mma get through though
BRIDGE (Melody from “Safety Dance” by Men Without Hats)
Walk away if you want to... You can leave my heart behind
But the keys to the cuffs, To escape from my clutch, Are lost inside my mind
You can yell if you want to... You can scream, but you may find
That the vocal booth in the sound proof stu makes it hard to hear you cry
OUTRO (Melody from “Born This Way” by Lady Gaga)
I might have made some mistakes
But you'll be happy one day
It's for your own good ,baby
No you'll never escape
I didn't want it this way
To keep you locked in a cage
I got you heart-cuffed...
ALT OUTRO (Melody from “All Right Now” by FREE)
You're all mine now, baby you're all mine now (2x)

VERSE 1
Disdain is setting in, angers unsettling
traded a benevolent mind for my rebellion
wish I could sell my soul, outta the hell im in
so if the devil comes a knockin imma let him in
I'm out my element, crippled by the thought of fear
No point in fighting it, dont nobody get outta here
So while you huffed and puffed and traveling the atmosphere
I'll be at your doorstep, standing rather cavalier
…And this is just a thought,
If getting to the top means pulling all the stops
Well I prob'ly shoulda been there a long time ago
Instead I'm stuck waiting on this train of gold
...And this is just a thought,
If getting what I want means giving all I got
Well I prob'ly shoulda had it all a long time ago
Instead I'm stuck waitin on this train of gold, ya know.
CHORUS
I've given up everything along the path
Resting my dreams along these broken tracks
And I won't come back
VERSE 2
Relentless is the quality, they keep describing me
But honestly, it's kind of an oddity of a rivalry
Like I'm too stupid to quit, when failure follows me
Gotta be I'm too used to it, so it don't bother me
It don't break me down, doesn't seem to motivate
Numb to the temporary love, and everlasting hate
Emotionally there is no way to humiliate
Whatever other image I create and then perpetuate
…And this is just a thought,
I'll never get a shot if I'm never on the clock
Well I prob'ly shoulda set it off a long time ago
Instead I'm stuck waiting on this train of gold
...And this is just a thought,
I'll never get props here shepherding the flock
Well I prob'ly shoulda let em fall a like a domino
Instead I'm stuck waitin on this train of gold, ya know.
BRIDGE
Under microscope, viewing broken slides
Toss the dice, flip a coin, heads or tails, win or lose, quarters or dimes
OUTRO
And I won't let go,
Once I grab a hold of this train of gold

VERSE 1
I.. sacrificed... all my time, I tried, yeah I tried
You said... I ought to be a fool to go, I'm the one that you call home,
But you lie, yeah you lie
CHORUS
I'm the one who gave it all for love.
But giving everything just aint enough
I don't wanna hold back these
feelings inside, and say I'm alright
Taking all this pain and all this hurt,
I can't stand to feel this anymore
...so much for love.
VERSE 2
I... thought that you could be the one
All along, I believed in you and me
But then, you gave up on everything
And all that we could've been,
Tell me why, tell me why
BRIDGE
I don't wanna spend another night
Cause all you ever do is make me cry
There's nothing you can say to change my mind
Things aint ever gonna be alright
And now that I can see
the light in front of me
I have the strength to go
OUTRO
I cried, I cried
You lied, you lied
You never even tried to try

Slumber - Thoughts
02:29
|
|||
VERSE 1
She sits quiet, staring out her bedside
Window to the outside world rather dead-eyed
Unsure what happened, can't seem to get a handle
Everyday's a challenge understanding that she can't go
The nurses comfort her, tell her that it's okay
She's still confused but excited for a new day
Picks up a paint brush, and draws what she remembers
However long, until her cognizance surrenders
It's time for breakfast, drinking tea amongst her neighbors
That she never met before, but she smiles at those strangers
Strikes up conversation, it couldn't be more pleasant
She formulates affection, but it's fleeting by the second
Dignity diminishes with each sip, so she steps
Back into her room to allow herself to reset
Picks up the brush again and paints away the sadness
As colors fade away on her canvas
CHORUS
These thoughts... can't find...
She's lost... in her own mind...
VERSE 2
Stares at pictures of her son, still sees him as a child
Every Sunday he visits, but looks just like his father.
She's still confused, he's contemplating leaving
Doesn't have the heart to tell her that his daddy isn't breathing
Her husband isn't coming, her house is on the market
This disease will never soften, and it's only getting harder
He's angry at a God that lets the evil come to conquer
Then she grabs his hand perfectly repeating every Proverb
He feels ashamed, and his face is her reflection
The puzzle pieces scattered and there's no way to connect em
Responses aren't the clearest, embarrassed by the questions
She don't know the answers like a kid reviewing lessons
In the classroom, as the teacher chooses her at random
Her mind has gone phantom, body left abandoned
What's a memory, when the photo won't develop
She had it for a moment, then forgot she ever held it
|

VERSE 1
You haven't been happy in a long, long time
You haven't been saying what's on your mind
You haven't been happy living in my dreams
You haven't been feeling like you belong with me
I guess it's time to let you breathe
VERSE 2
Wish I would have told you how amazing you are
Wish I could have showed you, you consume my heart
Wish I would have noticed what you meant to me
Wish I could just hold you, never set you free
I guess it's time to let you breathe
BRIDGE
I'm staring at your pictures that cover these walls
A shoebox full of letters of love look at me
I can't believe it's over after so long (so long, so long)
I guess it's time to let you... breathe
OUTRO
If you still don't love me... if you don't believe
That we were perfect, that I'm not what you need
I guess it's time to let you... breathe

VERSE 1
Drivin off to work, one day, way back
When I had a job, tryna make the cake stack
93 Taurus, grandma green
With a star spray-painted on the hood, so mean,
So Ill... I'm still rockin' the tape deck
Got MJ's Thriller lodged in, no eject
Button, the seat's wet, the windows won't close
Freezin' my balls off, no, heat won't blow
And why the hell with all this fresh air
Does it smell so bad when I get in here?
It's like a turd and a piss had a baby
Stuck it in the back seat for me to smell daily
It never fails me, no luck, I reckon'
Cheatin' for a left turn, stalled up in an intersection
Stuck my feet down through rusted holes
Yabba Dabba Doo like Fred Flintstone
CHORUS
This is what I do when my car breaks down
Write a hot lick to that Sliced Bred sound
Spit a little taste on that beat right there
Walkin' on the bass, I can't drive nowhere
This is what I do when my whip won't go
Chillin' in the basement, Sketch Studio
Rip a little flow, write a couple hits
Rhymes like “woah”, but my car aint shit
VERSE 2
Guess a couple grand won't make it all better
If car trouble's hip, then I'm a trend-setter
Between belts and buckles, shoes and brakes
This ride just collects dust and depreciates
This is how it turns when your clutch burns
Worst part yet, not even my first concern
Brakes don't work, man, tires don't match
Lost the remote, can't access the trunk hatch
Gas cap sticks, man, windows leak rain
AC smells like rodent remains
Another day comes around and I'm still broke down
Can't see straight, so upside down
Nickeled and dimed, beaten down on the bottom line
Robbed by repairs, how's this not a crime
Used to have wheels, used to ride like a king
Now, instead of four wheels, I trade it in for four strings
|

VERSE 1
It's not exactly what I wanted from the start
It's definitely not been a walk around the park
And I don't know what's going on inside my h eart
It's either broken in between, or bursting at the seams
I guess I never really grew the way you planned
I confess I never tried to understand
And I guess we could both be a little damned
To each other lost in dreams, of a life that we don't lead
CHORUS
If you are...
The centerpiece of gravity
Then why do you...
Constantly attract to me
If we are...
The masterpiece of destiny
Then why do we...
Always have to fight for everything
VERSE 2
I know it seems a little trying now and then
I know you feel like you're exhausted once again
And I can see that you're still trapped inside your head
With another night of screams, yet another broken scene
I guess we're both a bit addicted to the pain
I guess my life without you wouldn't be the same
I guess we all have vices and believe that it could change
Like it's something we won't fiend, or whatever that must mean
BREAKDOWN
(ooh)
you know that you my (boo)
and im gone stay (true)
we gon make it (through)
you know that you my (boo)
and im gone stay (true)
we gon make it (through)
cause I'm in love with (you)

Slumber - Keep it All
02:18
|
|||
CHORUS
I've been lost, I've been lost, in dreams of the fame
Let me off, let me off, I don't need it no way
I don't care for the taste, I can't bear what it takes
Keep it all, keep it all, keep it all.
VERSE
Keep the riches, I've chased the paper formerly
like I'm basing every lyric on potential royalties
like if I make a catchy chorus sorta quarterly
Keeps the sheep in check, so they normally supportin me
Keep the bitches, or even more importantly
any form of whoring, no performing for sororities
they like a swarm of bees, storm the beach of Normandy
subtle breeze, please, they morally distortin me
Keep the schedule, the seven hour bus rides
In and out of cities like a circus in the night time
Peddling a cd, whichever one I supply
Weeks by the months swallowed up in the high tide
Keep the battle, the fight to go world-wide
Everybody's carried on my back, but I take pride
Making it, aint no can of corn, like a pop fly
But I'll stay strong like I'm Popeye.
BRIDGE
I appreciate minutes you've been taking out to listen, but...
I don't really need your love
And I know the world we live in makes it hard to pay attention, but...
I just feel I've had enough
And I've found in this instant, that I'm not optimistic
I'm a broken down cynic, in a hopeless existence
I wonder if you're getting what I'm givin, huh?
I'm afraid I've given up.

VERSE 1
Know it's been a while, since we've seen each other
I see that pretty smile, guiding me just like a rudder
It's like a symphony's syncing up inside of me
Gray-scale memories, finally I see in color.
It's been a long time, since we last spoke
Don't wanna ruin any moment with a bad joke
But I can't wait, to get my head straight
He who hesitates, you know how the saying goes
It's been a journey, picking up the remnants
But I don't worry, had some time to reminisce
Dreaming of the when, and if I would see your face again
Feelings I don't comprehend give me reason to exist
I built the fortress, I'll break the walls down
I'll be your knight in shining armor, should you fall down
You like a princess, damsel in distress
I'm here to save us, bring it back right now
CHORUS
So what could I do, I guess I was young
Foolish and dumb enough to give you up
If only I knew what I had in us
I wouldn't have lost your love
Now we have a chance to change
Those years we missed to happiness
Time to take a gamble babe
But only if we start here with hello
VERSE 2
Took a time out, from our time together
But now I realize, no one else could know you better
Than I know you, so let me show you
How I've grown to be the one for now and ever
No doubt I messed up, but I will own it
Standing on the edge, between friend and opponent
No more wishes, magic has diminished
But we'll photo finish like a kodak moment
Used to be blue, just like an avatar
Living on the moon, somewhere up among the stars
Felt trapped then I started to adapt,
and captured a dragon, knowing I could take charge
Plus I would like to explore more of
You're world like a tour of pandora
Up in 3D, grab it right in front of me
Finally I see, it is you, I am sure of
BRIDGE
This aint no fairytale, maybe I'm tempting fate
But we can have a happy ending if you want it babe,
Let's start it over and, not make the same mistakes
Only if you open up to hear me say... Hello...

Amanda Jo - What if I
04:27
|

VERSE 1
Is there anybody breathing
Or are we just set in stone
So much time, so little reason
To break through, into the unknown
Is there anybody seeing
The same day still going so wrong
So much life, so little meaning
To uncover what moves us along
Chorus
What if I, wasn't there, I may never know
Maybe I, shouldn't care, I might lose control
What if I, wasn't real, I may take the fall
Maybe I, wouldn't feel, I may end it all
VERSE 2
Am I lacking understanding
Or am I right on the nose
So many morals to the story
But how it all ends, no one knows
Heavy hearts so demanding
Weighing down, beating slow
All the pain keeps congesting
My thoughts so depressing,
I guess that's my life, I suppose
