Hindsight (1-liner)
In hindsight, it all makes sense. The gun in his drawer was not for defense.

On My Way
I was thinking to myself
Maybe I should seek some help
Or maybe I should shoot myself
Everything that's good has gone away
Before I go and end it all
Sorry for what you just saw
Once my blood is on the walls
My regrets in life will go away
This here really is the end
Leave behind the tears of friends
Hope they read this note I send
Let hell know I'm on my way
Maybe I should seek some help
Or maybe I should shoot myself
Everything that's good has gone away
Before I go and end it all
Sorry for what you just saw
Once my blood is on the walls
My regrets in life will go away
This here really is the end
Leave behind the tears of friends
Hope they read this note I send
Let hell know I'm on my way

Afterlife
Let me tell you why I spent a couple thousands today.
'Cause it's the only remedy to stop me poutin' my face.
Got a wallet worth a lot, cost more than what it can hold.
Chasing materialistic things like diamonds, leather, and gold.
Just tryna fill a void left by the people that left me.
Replaced attachments with the fashion, man, it's really depressing.
Bought a Lex with a roof that lets me see constellations.
'Cause I invested in Coins and made my riches off the inflation.
But the excitement only lasts for a bit and it's over.
Then it's...

Grimy Endeavors (freestyle)
I went through hell on my grimy endeavors.
Came in that pussy; it's slimy as ever.
Rocking that Spring/Summer Maison Margiela.
Damn, I look cute with my Kate Spade umbrella.
R.I.P. Katherine, you one of the greatest.
Tommy Hilfiger, I'm rocking the latest.
Excessive accessories, pearls and gems.
Materialistic, I don't have no friends.
I am still broke, but I long for that money.
Life is a joke, man, I don't think it's funny.
Thought it was passion, in love with the fashion.
But deep down, I'm sad. It was all a distraction. ...

All My Demons
I'm lonely but I'm never alone,
'Cause all my demons share my home,
And the Devil's looking after me.
Ensuring I suffer happily.
'Cause all my demons share my home,
And the Devil's looking after me.

In the Club [Tanka]
Glass bottle empty
General feeling of love
Distorted music
Dance my heart out in the club
Wake up aching in the tub
General feeling of love
Distorted music
Dance my heart out in the club
Wake up aching in the tub

Mr. Reaper
I feel numb, and nothing helps me feel alive.
I want to run away and not be traumatized.
I bought a gun and a pack of hollows at the store.
But I just need one. Satan, I'll be at your door.
I'm not alone. I have my demons right beside me.
I'm coming home. Mr. Reaper, come and find me.

Death of Me
Tonight be the death of me
Fight to breathe desperately
Noose tied next to me
Suicide successfully
Fight to breathe desperately
Noose tied next to me
Suicide successfully

Rich People Problems
Feel like I’m running a race and I’m winning.
But no one told me it’d be lonely at the finish.
It’s too late to turn back, ‘cause I already did it.
I’ve been dreaming of this moment for a minute.
I fought hard and made it to the other side,
but they rooted for the man who died.
I’m not a fighter, I only did when I had to fight.
Sold my soul for a better life, don’t care about no afterlife.
I don’t feel ashamed, I made it in the game.
If you struggled how I did, you’d do the same.
The money I made done changed who I am. ...

Peachy
I remember the days when I couldn't get paid, I resorted to stealing the cash.
I'll never say sorry for being the man that I am, man, I'm just a result of my past.
If you saw me today, you'd never guess where I'm from, if you came to my hood, you wouldn't last.
The only Asian dude in a black school, I found a way to fit in with the mass.
I came out the mud, I grew up in the slums, but I promise I'm tryna give up on this hood life.
Never forget the struggles of sleeping with rats on the floor, I can't seem to remember no good nights.
Every cop I've encountered has...

Bad Dragon
Claiming you tote tools, why you mad cappin'?
I'ma show up at your wedding where I'll catch you lackin'.
Get your bride shot, and I'll be glad it happened.
I'ma kill these pussies like a Bad Dragon.
Cut your ring finger off, put it in a napkin.
Throw it in a box, then I'll gift-wrap it.
Drop it at your mom's house, then I leave laughin'.
And I'll think about my actions when I'm home fappin'.
