Faithful
(Verse 1)
And if I get cursed to love again, Ima give my all till my heart
No longer comprehends the true meaning, of sacrifice for my art
See I, been lost in the store without apparent, vision for ones who could hurt me the most
So I drown my bad habits in my lust for freedom, no, alcoholics don't lack for life
And my gills bring salvation in the form of honesty,
And honestly, I'm tryna find that nigga Neemo
Grab a bottle of New Jack, then call a nigga Mr.Nino,
Ten a keys, you split it ten to a key
Then attentively proceed to play the chromatic,
Create symphonies for the woman who'll listen, then proceed to drown in your reason
Nigga whats your freedom?
(Verse 2)
Father, im a sinner.... I was wondering, do you hear me.... If I call you, will you answer....
Cus I been going through some things
Father, im a sinner.... I was wondering, do you hear me.... If I call you, will you answer....
Cus I been tryna make a way out of no way
(Vamp)
Don’t change, don’t change, don’t change, don’t change
Don’t change, don’t change
Will you believe in, do you believe him (x2)
(Hook)
Not just on Sunday’s, I’m Faithful, I’m Faithful, I’m Faithful
(Verse 3)
Tell people I love em, but they don’t seem to remember
See memories seem to fade around the time of black September
Lost my heart to coldest winters on a sunny day in June,
Guess that’s what I get for falling in love too soon
Never felt more evil, while striving to be a better me
I never act on vengeance, but my conscious weighs heavily
I’m lost and I’m cold, don’t wanna ever be alone
But when I wanna hear her voice, I can’t pick up the phone
See sophomore year of college, talked my mother out of suicide
The burden of giving all my love leaves me hung and dry
I’m always saying “lol”, but never laugh out loud
I’d prolly be in love, if I ever truly smiled
My anxiety looks like, telling you I’m fine cus I’m big brother Teegee
Knowing damn well I’m drowning in the other room
Making beats so I can have something tangible to believe in
I still need help
(Verse 4)
Father, im a sinner.... I was wondering, do you hear me.... If I call you, will you answer....
Cus I been tryna make a way out of no way
(Vamp)

Quazimodo
(Verse 1)
Quick right on the ops, aint no love for the man with a tail on his dreams
I come from the gritty, where niggas seem to be about everything except for the cream
Digress on your faux habits,
Niggas claim artistry but aint got no passion
How Warhol but aint got no fight
Inspired by the lack of life, I think I might
Pass the psalms to the passive activist that twerks like hydraulics in her free time
That’s multi-task to your one cell
And those 5 minutes aint giving her no orgasm,
I fall victim to the dangerous habit of falling in love before she do
Talking bout trips to Shidu,
Where the Shitake mushrooms, they grow so flagrant
My sins of lust and gluttonous love are balanced, by my lack of trust
By my lack of trust, Common Sense in the background
And, yes I testify
Before you take my love away
I just want another taste of what used to be
Your moans of worship before my offering
You call my name, like I am him
Proper pronouns nowadays seem so profound
In the midst of our lavish living
You play your part, and I play the fool
I imagine, Mr.J aint never felt so nice, any moment, Bruce Wayne can be your savior
And I lost my sanity, when I lost my pack of Newports at the airport
Tryna be somebody that I’m not meant to be
Do it for the love, get hurt for free
(Hook)
I had out, then I found my way up out of my comfort zone,
I had out, then I found my glory in my papa home
My sorrow sins, they found a way to drown my light
(I been missing your love, I been missing your love)
I had out, then I found my way up out of my comfort zone,
I had out, then I found my glory in my papa home
My sorrow sins, they found a way to drown my light
(And since I couldn’t love you, I can be your Quazimodo)
(Verse 2)
And all we ever did was argue and pray
And fuck til 3am knew our shame
The bewitching hour cant manifest, cus we so pure in our evil
And in the midst of night, we made a light, and name her after your freedom
You was the wind, I was yo sun,
I supernova at the thought of what we had did
We cant commit, you cant commit
And I, I can’t exist without feeling your heart
Passive aggression, your transmission went missing in that junkyard
You can’t shift gears from that other guy
Why must I try, I’m a helluva guy, but excuses don’t fill my needs
See I’m growing stagnant, I see the answers
And run from the treatment that I need
We ended tragic, the blunt I pass it
That should tell you right there that I’m tweaked so,
Sip, sip, on a little henny
just enough to keep the fade like some bell bottom jeans
Its in my jeans to drink the yin and fantasize about the what if
Like, what if I tried, what if I died
Would you love me then, would you tell me I’m still too nice,
Or, I aint never really met another lover, who, Genuine like that pony brother
Or, trips acid in the over lover
Or, eats me like a double stuffing
Oreo was our greatest vice, I, love love but I hate advice
And, rather learn the hard way, get lost in the hallway like prep school taught us
(Hook)
(Verse 3)
Pop a pill love hurts Sundays easy but heavens hard/
Cocoa butter for these life scars but diamond cuts made the pain worse/
you went from being a muse now I'm just amused You know the program keep it on mute/
And I don't keep in touch I just keep up with you
And yea I got a man but I wish it was you/
(Laughs) You know what's funny I gotta right to laugh/
Where the fuck was this years ago gotta right to ask/
You Didn't wanna be left with me in the future and now you tryin right ya past/
You know that nigga that be on that corner for some business shit tryin to advertise/
iPod in ears dancin twirlin signs you see it then speed trough the traffic light/
Well that was life
The dark skin thriller now these hoes claimin they see the light/
It's like they saw the Christ
The way I turn they watered tears into wine/
We missed our time and all this time I was thinking it was something I did in the end/
She say I know it's no excuse and yea I owe the truth it never happened cuz my hatin ass friend...damn

Rain At My Window
(Verse 1)
As I,
Stare out this window pane,
Tryna bare my pain just to heal my soul, like
God be another brown bottle,
Cus I got more confessions than Judas,
And no, my 30 silvers ain't came,
But I’m still tryna get back our 40 acres,
My how the passivity of blacks in these streets,
Never really bred our freedom
And they steal our trends but they fear us, and still can't compare to our weakest
But I'm lost in ages, translated, with a mind too lost for my soul,
Think I mighta been Mozart In a past life,
Cus I'm straight on the keys like Whitney
Henny can be my brown, cus she holds me, and never really hangs over unwanted
And if I, if I, if I
If, I, get cursed to love again
Ima simply give my all
Give my all, till my heart no longer comprehends
(Hook)
I can't see further than the rain in my eyes,
I can't see further than the clouds in the sky, s
See I been stressin tryna come up on a blessing,
They say that it gets better but I can't imagine
With all this rain on my window seal (x4)
(Verse 2)
Pastor, Pastor, please slide me a bible
My soul is torn and tattered, I really need a revival
Really need a recital
Cus if the truth will set you free,
Then let it cast out my demons, let em know I been fiending
Let em know that I been dreamin, dreamin of better days
Scheming for better pay, but stuck in my old ways
They told me I had depression, no desire to live
I Amy Winehouse the pressure,
But didn’t want it to end
And if I, if I, if I,
If I, get cursed to live again
Ima simply give my all, til my soul can comprehend
(Hook)

Luci
(Verse 1)
I could never be another statistic,
I keep my hand on the edge darkness,
They lookin starsick when I assert my pimpin,
Hennessy done taught me what my lack of a father didn't,
So baby tell me what you wan do, what you wan do?
Pussy, money, hoes, and foreign bitches with weave,
Pussy, money, hoes, and tattoos all on my sleeve,
This right here the black dream, this the pinnacle of elation,
But you can't differ with my opinion or Ima say you emasculatin,
Fuck boy why you always hatin, why you ask we kill for Nathan
Cus that's our boss, go get a job
You'll see that life ain't always patient,
It's take before I get took, no time for reciprocation,
And that go for love to, it ain't really rape if she said before that she wanted to suck you,
I let my homie get one too,
Continuing the cycle of what's wrong with the male,
It's either dead, get in a cell or end up in hell, at least, let me choose the way that Ima fail
(Hook)
And don't you worry about the spice life, sit back nigga Ima get you right
Abuse your limit just lost in the night, sit back nigga Ima get you right
(Verse 2)
I could never be another statistic,
I keep my heart on the edge of darkness,
They lookin starsick when I flex my business,
Good pussy taught me what lack of a didn't father didn't,
So tell me baby what you wan do, what you wan do?
Just drink this poison, I mean this escape route,
Violence can play through a lack of mental, you tell me what you into,
Baby I won't judge, baby I'll prolly lead you to stand in front of a judge,
I mean, baby emotions see through
Just come and pour out a flood,
Know, you missed the nights oh don't you
The flashing lights a haunt ya, the memory of lust and jealousy come back unwanted,
Just think of yourself as a slave, I gotchu
You right here in my palm,
Don't fear my embrace, the heat of passion in my arms,
The heat that you can't handle,
Know you used to missing moms,
But tonight just light a candle, I mean tonight just light your spliff,
Get lit to this,
Go live your dreams like Freddy Krueger ain't have nothing else better to do
Cus it's the truth
(Hook)

Balance Pt.2
(Verse 1)
And you're the reason why I don't believe in good things
And you're the reason why I don't believe in wedding rings,
And you're the reason why my passion for the art sings
A warped fantasy of Gepetto, pull my heart strings,
And you're the reason why I can't find younger me, and you're the reason why loving just seems so new to me
And you're the reason why I'm drowning when I need to breathe
Soak in the poison cus salvation is a myth to me
And you're the reason why I no longer believe in religion, no matter what others think I'll never get my redemption
And you're the reason why rejection is a death sentence
give out my soul cus really ain't nothing much left of it
And youre the reason why I suffer from fuckin depression
Align my chakras, meditation, I'll soon get the message
And I'll tell everybody that you're the why, I let no one get close
But in reality I can't fathom I hate myself the most
(Vamp)
And baby tell me what you want from me, baby tell me what you want from me
I sippy, sippy on the henny, flow tears like its Jodeci
To figure out what I’m posed to be
(Hook)
Oh you gotta love it.... Oh you gotta love it.... Oh you gotta love it... Oh you gotta love it…. Oh you gotta love it
And I just wanna ... I just wanna oh... (x3)
Love and be loved ....
(Verse 2)
Roll of Thunder was prophesied to cry... But tell me can you hear me roar
Cus I been drowning under waters that's too deep for me drink,
And I don't know how to cope since you've been gone
And I admit I ain been the same since my Uncle passed,
But I had to play strong because my mom can't,
Keyword on the play because when you went away
I wasn't ready to say goodbye to your face, so I lied to skip your funeral
Another regret, another darkness that just weighs on my chest,
Please tell me am I allowed to be selfish
Am I finally allowed to cry like I wanted to,
I hate that in your final moments I deserted you,
I never sent that verse back, I know it hurt you,
I hate telling the truth because it hurts too
I struggle with forgiveness not from other people, but from the very man that spit this verse to you
(Hook)
(Vamp)
I know love is what you want from me, but my papa aint teach me how to jump start an engine

Communion
(Verse 1)
Take my mind.... Understand....
Take my heart... Hold my hand...
See I try.... But I'm not clean...
So I must be... Not good enough...
To fellowship with the Saint...
But ironic cus he do the same thing....
Like put out the cig and take another drank....
Cant you see, you see
Destroyed, destroyed
We no longer, have place for our child....
I can see your heart babe...
wish I gave my all babe
(Verse 2)
You remind me of better times... Of hold pens and letter rhymes...
Of first kisses just to kiss you... Girl I'm loving what your do...
You, remind me of my dark days, middle schools in the hallways...
little nigga keep ya head up... trouble don't last always

Can I Learn You
(Verse 1)
Your smile, reminds me of my favorite song
Like when its dark outside, and you don’t wan go home
Can I keep you company, I just wanna please
You, you, you, you ,you, you (x2)
Lovin in the night sky, hate it when the stars go
Because when its daybreak, that’s when you go home
(Hook)
Can I learn,
Can I learn,
Can I learn, you
(Verse 2)
Your smile, reminds me of my favorite song
Like when its light outside, and the birds sing love
My presence is a breeze, your memories of me
Fade, fade, fade, fade, fade, fade, fade, fade, fade, fade away
Lovin in the night sky, hate it when the stars go
Cus when its daybreak, that’s when I’m all alone
(Hook)
I don’t wanna ever be alone, don’t want her to ever know

2AM Phone Calls
(Verse 1)
More life than a sun rise, I
Get lost in the pastime, of
Day dreaming bout the soul in you,
Lost art and ya booty's the truth, I kid,
Lost art and ya beauty's the truth
We can share fat fries and enjoy the view, see,
You are the prototype
And Im hoping that you are the one
Drift off to the passing sun
Supernova at the thought of your eyes
And I admit that I can't see,
Past my lengthy, list of inspirers,
And I must acquit cus I been an admirer,
Done used more rubbers than a Goodwill tire, but damn tired,
Of late nights with no reciprocation,
Liam Neeson cant my heart from being taken, gahdamn,
My heart beats like Timbaland and Jigga made it, gahdamn,
Double dribble violation, Sanaa Latham, gahdamn,
Used to simply making art, so I start, gahdamn,
Closing off the leaking leaking waters like I building a damn,
Bbut I'm the earth and you're sumn like the fire that lights, the forge to creation, so...
Im,
original as I can be... Cus sometimes simple is better
(Vamp)
Heavenly...Heavenly...Heavenly.... (x3)
(Verse 2)
See, I been, I been, I been, I been, I been, chasing you
And, you been, you been, you been, you been, you been, running from your heart
So, wont you, wont you, wont you, wont you, wont you please just breathe
Please just breathe, please just breathe (x2)

(Verse 1)
Allow me to introduce my insecurities,
Neglect be the Frankenstein that created me
It's been years since the pain, but he gets the best of me
I tell myself I'll let him go, but I can't let him leave
See I been seeking remission,
see I been stuck in a venture,
I think I'll have evolution, but steady stuck reminiscing,
I traded out my joy so I could art in, December night skies,
Forever cursed to feel a ways cus I can't accept separation
You tellin me you feel my pain,
But it's not that deep
I flow tears just enough to cover shallow feet
Never said I that I inspire, but you still look at me,
And I wonder how I can handle the pressures of maturity
You tellin me you feel my pain,
Ok I guess its deep,
But I can't talk about it,
My heart forever silent
So I chase women away with my emotional mileage
Oh you wanna fly private,
I'll drop you off on an island,
Because I cant stand to see you cry
(Hook)
Can we get a 4,5 for the primo kid
He sippin henny in the line, look what primo did
He spread his wings to touch the sky, just like Kanye did
He heard em say that
(Nigga we major, nigga we major,
Nigga we major, look what he made ya)
Late registration ain,
(Got no major)
(Nigga we major, nigga we major
Look what he made ya, look what he made ya)
(Verse 2)
Shawty say she out the L-O,
No V to fellows,
Cus niggas only for Everybody and they cigarillo's,
The type to give out love but won't really accept a thing
And that's only cus we feel life has misbranded us
I would gladly give my time just for recognition,
But when someone calls my name I always come up missing,
I would love to simply leave but I'm influence dependent,
And If I was to go, the ones who said they could never love me would surely miss me
You can catch me in a dark space, with wood floors,
I moon walk in my freedom,
The sun shine bright in the morning,
And I feel like I met you in a past life,
That sounds crazy right,
Syncopation kinda miss and gave way to honesty at a open mic
And I don't want to ever really be alone,
but i never say these things because my mind is a mind of its own
And we seem to grow dishonest with ourselves when we gettin grown,
what the fuck have you been on
(Hook)
