The Light 02:32
lyrics
buy track
If you didn't know, it's hard to show You feel the glow but deny the light, Spend your nights locked in fright... That someone might listen to a word I say Young loves etch in trees, "Me + You" I can do it too but my love's more true Cuz I thought it through, cuz my tree is flat, cuz my chisel's black and blue Says who? Certainly not the sky gods, cuz the one feeling... Is you Just be inspired by your own desire to shape your world To point your lens at the cross-sections of love and fear of hope and doubt, where you find the truth... And the ones your care about

The Shit 03:42
lyrics

The rules you're told The rules you're told You listen to em', die, and then you get old You don't know shit You don't know shit You say you'll deal with life soon but oh, no this is it I'm just a man You don't have to listen to me I do what I can to live a good life if you agree Maybe give it a try, I know that I feel free The games you play The games you play They're all that matter to you and man you're wasting away I'm just a man You don't have to listen to me I do what I can to live a good life if you agree Maybe give it a try, I know that I feel free I don't know why I don't know why You live your life that way, if it were me I'd wanna die I'm just a man You don't have to listen to me I don't know much but I know that I feel free If I'm out of touch then baby just Let me be If I'm out of touch then baby just Let me be

Smoke That Grass 04:20
lyrics

You know that I can't say anymore It'll hit yah when you walk in the door You know I don't mean to be crass Shut-up and smoke that grass Shut up and smoke that grass Something tells me times running low And you know you don't have much to show But now you're running late for class Lay back and smoke that grass Lay back and smoke that grass You start to think that you're a fool For tryin to follow your own rules You notice your faults but alas You're just gonna smoke that grass You're just gonna smoke that grass Can't you get ahead of it all? The great romantic fall Well who's to say I don't want that? I don't know so I smoke that grass I don't know so I smoke that grass So give me fame, gold, and trust Cuz you know I don't ask for much One more thing if I can ask How bout a pound of grass? How bout a pound of grass? Goes good with long loved family and friends Dig water food and hope til the end But on the list of things that I need I'm not sure what to do with weed I'm not sure what to do with weed I'm not sure what to do with weeeeeeedddd 420bLaZeIt

Pass The Gosh Dang Butter 05:32
lyrics
buy track
Leave your friends behind your told You keep on moving til you're getting old I got no friends to walk this lonely road And my fingers getting cold cuz I got no hands to hold Mama helped me once but she can't again She hold me up to do it if I can But now is my chance to hold the pen My pages are empty and I won't be like them Jim's right you're wrong it's all a sham Don't you know that it's your life to can? But there's one thing that I just don't understand It's the way that no one trusts their fellow man The stories you're told they bring on all the pain But no one ever told me that it's all just a game So turn it off, unplug let's go out and play Cuz everyone's inside or else expecting rain No one ever told me that I'd take all the blame How it came to be in kinda hard to explain It comes from somewhere deep inside my brain And I've come to learn that I can't trust that thing Let me tell you something that it's a shame That I can't make all your teachers sing "It's your turn now go hold the flame" Live the life of your dreams, don't live in vain

As Above So Alone 05:08
lyrics
buy track
Can't help but fall Down down down All down the hall round round round Can't see at all Atop the town I went out Make a sound Pick a star and lock on, sights set on right Wise men say, "Aim at the light" Stay locked on and you'll make it for sure but my star hath burst now I aim for the void There outta be some truth in there or I'm just paranoid Severity's a variety, ancienct sobriety diepicts mythology, look into the world We have the tools, it's time for the next step Don't be fools Moving on forward I've picked up a load never expected much but that's what I hold It's funny how they got yah like that You can't avoid getting old Death and morality, two great catastprohies But here we get the duality Don't lose sight on me My eye's on the prize Don't believe lies When it gets to the end You'll find with all the loss and all the cries... You'll be the last who dies Laying in bed, sober for a day And just like that I'm in this melodramatic way You can't tell I'm sad cuz I can't say But ain't that just the same old same

Switching Over 02:16
lyrics

Last night I thought about switching over I'm still taking it in but I'm sippin slower I don't want that much from you and I can't deny It's a lot easier with you on my side There's a lot going on but I'm not scared I won't look away, I wouldn't dare There's a lot going on and I don't think you'd lie But shit's getting complicated, I don't wanna die I don't know what to do anymore... So I do do do do

Pass Me By 04:18
lyrics
buy track
My time is crimped like a page left marked It ruins the book but that's my favorite part You pass me by As I'm trying to find x4 I read the end first away And I wrote it myself But the pages read different with time Shifting and changing to fall in line with mine Someone else had knew my tale... Or an author writing for himself Pass me by As I'm trying to find

Just As Well For Lily P. ft Seth Milano 04:46
lyrics
buy track
She fought broke and cried around the 7 wonders Took in all the human heart can see But when she finally stopped to ask what she came for It was hard to take that the trip's it for Lily P. Crack jokes you hate for the crate that tightly surrounds you Cuz you're attracted to those who's concepts confound you Without them your preconceived notions can drown you Can mental commotion til the truth's really found you Going out with friends you've known 5 years but still you Are getting dressed in your room and in your chest it feels Your lungs taught, you heart squeezed, it fills you Why them why me? Is this the real you She fought broke and cried around the 7 wonders Took in all the human heart can see But when she finally stopped to ask what she came for It was hard to take that the trip's it for Lily P. Work's great, mom's good and the house really holds us Things were tough when the dog got sick, nobody told us Why me ruff times they never let go of us My life's a mess, it ain't fair for the most of us Time ticks and age licks the letters never sent Building up all that unjust repent Your takeaway is that this was not time well spent Cuz you never stopped to look at what it meant I heard you got back from the hospital this morning Yeah, I've been out for a spell I went in because there's no meaning What am I doing here? You all know this just as well as I do You just won't tell Still you're asking what I'm meaning Just as well Just as well Just as well

Something Love 04:38
lyrics
buy track
I don't have no safety rope Climbing up the wall No one here to give me hope No one round at all I don't have no hang glider For my upcoming fall First time in my life that I'm prepared to die Something good is keeping me here Hold my hand and help me steer Give me the balls to stay alive And ask, "What's really going on?" Pushed off the deep end Learning how to swim Drowning is inevitable But I'm determined to win I don't have a life vest As I breathe the water in It fills up my lungs But I don't have to run Something good is keeping me here Hold onto me and kill my fear Give me the balls to stay alive And ask, "What's really going on?" I think it's something Love Hanging on the brink of time Seconds pass like days I've been here before I said But it's all a haze There is not a kill switch There's no saving grace You just have to let go Then you get to know Something good is keeping me here Hold onto me and keep reality near Give me the balls to stay alive And ask, "What's really going on?" I think it's something Love
