I Don't Need to Know
I don’t think I could mistake your face;
I was in the throes, felt it to my toes.
Please don’t mistake my messy, slurring state;
you just had the glow, thought you ought to know
Is it a sign, your unaffected tone?
When you speak to me, you’re so clear to me.
How many clues are you gonna need
just to guess the man I used to be?
I don’t need to know.
I’m a different man than I was back then.
I don’t need to know.
Keep it to yourself if its just as well.
Was I as young and shining all those years ago?
I don’t...
I was in the throes, felt it to my toes.
Please don’t mistake my messy, slurring state;
you just had the glow, thought you ought to know
Is it a sign, your unaffected tone?
When you speak to me, you’re so clear to me.
How many clues are you gonna need
just to guess the man I used to be?
I don’t need to know.
I’m a different man than I was back then.
I don’t need to know.
Keep it to yourself if its just as well.
Was I as young and shining all those years ago?
I don’t...

Come With Me
I stood in the drive
Next to my Plymouth Sundance
That day in the mountains
Asked you to take a chance
Been doing this so long
There's nothing left here
Come on baby take my hand
Disregard the fear
I said
What's keeping you here
What's keeping us down
What's coming around the corner now
What's stopping us from leaving this town
Why don't you want to come with me
I packed my boxes
Drove alone, left you there
I-95, heading south ...
Next to my Plymouth Sundance
That day in the mountains
Asked you to take a chance
Been doing this so long
There's nothing left here
Come on baby take my hand
Disregard the fear
I said
What's keeping you here
What's keeping us down
What's coming around the corner now
What's stopping us from leaving this town
Why don't you want to come with me
I packed my boxes
Drove alone, left you there
I-95, heading south ...

Light Days
(V1)
You got me, locked in this
Acrylic daze for days
And I don't know
Where I'm going
Or where I've been
Or who paid
Out of place, out of time
Intentions, in ten shoes
Walked around
Got lost
In my own house
(Pre-Chorus)
Eeney meany miney dead
I'm shattered, devestated
Lickin' windows or the pane
Babe I think we've gone insane
Eeney meany miney dead
I'm shattered, devestated
All the faces in the grain
Babe I think we've gone insane
(V2)
Was I here,...
You got me, locked in this
Acrylic daze for days
And I don't know
Where I'm going
Or where I've been
Or who paid
Out of place, out of time
Intentions, in ten shoes
Walked around
Got lost
In my own house
(Pre-Chorus)
Eeney meany miney dead
I'm shattered, devestated
Lickin' windows or the pane
Babe I think we've gone insane
Eeney meany miney dead
I'm shattered, devestated
All the faces in the grain
Babe I think we've gone insane
(V2)
Was I here,...

My Buddy Tom
I've got a friend.
He's a little strange
'cause I found him in the pages of a diary
that I found in my stacks.
Ain't gotta pretend.
I tell him all my
hopes and dreams and of the lightening bolt
that makes me lose track of the days.
I'm amazed--
so patient, so kind.
My buddy Tom keeps all my secrets for me;
He keeps me calm when I'm too foggy to see;
When I'm depressed and lonely, he's my company.
This school is so darn big for a red little Weasley.
I told him the tale
of how I...
He's a little strange
'cause I found him in the pages of a diary
that I found in my stacks.
Ain't gotta pretend.
I tell him all my
hopes and dreams and of the lightening bolt
that makes me lose track of the days.
I'm amazed--
so patient, so kind.
My buddy Tom keeps all my secrets for me;
He keeps me calm when I'm too foggy to see;
When I'm depressed and lonely, he's my company.
This school is so darn big for a red little Weasley.
I told him the tale

Realm vs Cypher
My Realm is not my Cypher
My Cypher is not my Realm
The Cypher is the group
The Realm is who I am
My Queendom and territory
land, my Room, my Castle
My Realm
Rappers on lookers
Spectators with big crowds,
Battles and freestyles making
Noise and Wildin out
My Circle of Friends
We keep it moving
Til everyone joins
Spitting hot fire in
My Cypher
No one is allowed in
My Realm unless
I give them a key
If you step in my vicinity
Then you belong to me
If you step on...
My Cypher is not my Realm
The Cypher is the group
The Realm is who I am
My Queendom and territory
land, my Room, my Castle
My Realm
Rappers on lookers
Spectators with big crowds,
Battles and freestyles making
Noise and Wildin out
My Circle of Friends
We keep it moving
Til everyone joins
Spitting hot fire in
My Cypher
No one is allowed in
My Realm unless
I give them a key
If you step in my vicinity
Then you belong to me
If you step on...

We are all Rain Drops
We are all rain Drops
Heading back to the ocean
Heading back to the sea
Was it fate?
That landed us in the stagnant creek
Born to fall to Earth
Flowing back to the ocean
Flowing back to the sea
Avoiding the traps of man
Even the polluted bog
Was once a cloud of
Falling rain drops
Hoping for an adventure
Heading back to the ocean
Heading back to the sea
(Repeat)
Heading back to the ocean
Heading back to the sea
Was it fate?
That landed us in the stagnant creek
Born to fall to Earth
Flowing back to the ocean
Flowing back to the sea
Avoiding the traps of man
Even the polluted bog
Was once a cloud of
Falling rain drops
Hoping for an adventure
Heading back to the ocean
Heading back to the sea
(Repeat)

I CAN'T SLEEP
Night is here
and I still can't sleep
My eyes they strain and my ears hear
The rats in the dark that they keep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep....
Tell me how to sleep
It's two am
and I'm still awake
It's shit I just don't know who I am
Everything is blurry looking fake
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell me how to sleep...
Light in my face
That I plea for it to stop
but only brightens more this fucken place
Maybe it's better rest on the rooftop
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell...
and I still can't sleep
My eyes they strain and my ears hear
The rats in the dark that they keep
I can't sleep, I can't sleep....
Tell me how to sleep
It's two am
and I'm still awake
It's shit I just don't know who I am
Everything is blurry looking fake
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell me how to sleep...
Light in my face
That I plea for it to stop
but only brightens more this fucken place
Maybe it's better rest on the rooftop
I can't sleep, I can't sleep...
Tell...
