If you want me baby you got me
I’ll come running to your side
If you want me baby you got me
Tell me all that you desire
I just want to make you smile

No Contest

You the type of girl make a man go crazy
One hit off you—everything that I got I’m giving it up
Listen baby I was thinking
Maybe we could have a little one on one
I’d talk it out but I’d rather get nasty
Can I demonstrate that for you
?
Won’t you come a bit closer
Can I tell you a little secret baby?
All this time I’ve been searching
I never found a damn thing like you
You can feel free to correct me
But you're the perfect mix between love and lust
The way you win my heart with no contest
Got me strung along I must confess
Loosen up that rope around my neck
And I hate to admit it, girl—but I love it
How did they make you so perfect, baby?
You see I always had a record of never having what I want
No reciprocation, got jaded, sink or swim approach
Frustrated
Been plagued through the disarrays
No wonder why I feel the need to be a different place
On a planet fucked as this
Finding you is like wow
Does it really all exist?
Baby girl you bring the hope like Leia
So let me cast a holograph R2 can share

Meant For You

There’s something in the way gotta let you know
I can’t tell if it’s just cardiac
Or if you just digging down deep within my soul
When I first saw you I didn’t know that I was in trouble
I didn’t see the sand baby
Guess who’s sinking now?
Was it something that I said
Or you just sensitive?
(Little sensitive baby)
Baby, if you need me to go on trial I’mma testify
I’mma testify
All I got for you is love
And I know for sure
Let me prove it girl
Won't you hear me out
See I was just floating along
I’ve been doing what I wanna do
Then you came
Crash landed on through
I’m rethinking what I’m meant to do
What do I need to do
to get this through to you
Cuz there’s one thing
One thing for certain, girl
Pretty mamma I’m convinced I’m meant for you
You think I like it
Every day
Waking up with you
Got you on my brain
It’s enough to make a man go insane
You’re like salt up in the wound baby
Your type of tempting
It’s not a game
Always love to put me back up in my place
I count the minutes
I count the hours
Baby girl why you treat me so sour?

Bridges

Listen baby I’m sorry
if we got off on the wrong foot
Think I might’ve had a couple one two more then I should’ve
Wow
This is what happens when you’re feeling so sure of yourself
In hindsight I think I burnt a couple bridges back there
Maybe I should’ve thought before I acted
Oh well I guess it all adds up in the end
Hold up
I think that’s what Buddha said
All this confusion that’s going on
(In the World)
Faced with the brink of destruction
I think I hear a bomb droppin’ in the background
(Damn, that's some fucked up shit)
So let’s make love not war
While they're out burning bridges all day long
We can build those bridges all night long
While they're out burning bridges
We can be building bridges
We can be building bridges
We can be building bridges
Did anybody else wake up from the slumber
And realize that we’re in a generation of take from you and give to me
Don’t worry it’ll stack up all one day
And what goes around comes around
Just like the way it’s meant to be
What’s up with all this hate and no love?
It’s like we forgot there’s something up above
So many distractions to keep you busy
No justice but just us, baby
As if it wasn’t hard enough
And always got the man tryna get you down
But tonight we got a reason to put it down
While they're out burning bridges all day long
We can build those bridges all night long
While they're out burning bridges
We can be building bridges
We can be building bridges
We can be building bridges

Karma

I steer clear from a distance
With all these big problems
Ain’t nobody tryna touch it with a ten foot pole
Let alone pole for the right cause
Ain’t it all so so so sad
Boo hoo
Nowadays everybody just scraping along
Tryna spread that lil bit of cheese on the Triscuit
Isolating all alone in your homes and now you feel like a misfit
In almost every case money move the world
Distraction through the tech and the trinkets
Connection to your world sold separate
All those ills that you spread trickle down
Karma come back around
It’s never too late to turn it around
Karma come back around
You should listen before you speak
Cuz I ain’t in it for the flavour of the week
I’ve been in it for a minute
And I played the games
And I’m so through with no call to action from other lames
What happened to it?
Thought you were in it for the love of it
But you just love the way it looks
So you ain’t in it for the art?
You just in it for the stacks and the sky rise and a lake view
and a lav life with a bad bitch on the side
Do I sound right?
If not, how come everything I see on tv
Modelling how I need to behave
All this time thinking I need to change to be me
Bitch please
I’m just tryna feed up on this substance
I ain’t got no time for any sustenance
This value system corrupted and its twisted
Benchmarked by the traders and their highest bidders
No use for chug chugging for change
Instead I’m chugging my bank account wrapped in brown bags
And even if I’m lucky and I start a little flame
Just watch—probably spend it on a range
Remember at the end of the day
All you got is your brain
Fore it all goes down the drain

Past Life

Wait I ain’t tryna freak you out
But I think I know you from a past life
Couple times we’ve been reincarnated and I know myself now
Took me sometime but I’m figuring it out now
How can you go off so easy on a topic so profound?
Remember back in the old days when we was laying back on the grass
Contemplating all the big things in life
Remember those days?
No phone and no tv yea yea
Making out just to check and make sure that the universal laws work
And they work
Still
On this plane everything is assembled wrong
It’s all upside down
You could see it for yourself
Lately I’ve been searching
Got big questions but no answers
And I get the feeling deep inside
And I’ve waited for ya
Since my past life
And after all ain’t life just one big old detour?
Sometimes it take you to some places that’s so bizarre
New angles of the frame that shapes me
Make me want to stop
(Stop)
And just sit with that for a lil bit
You could be that foil to my blues
Shimmer in your eyes like the stars above
Got an X factor I can’t put my finger on
Part cosmic
Part mystical
Part grounded on the earth
Where have you been all this time?
So you’re telling me you’ve been on a plane
That was always there all along
And I just never took the time to see it and change
I can feel my stomach taking a turn on me
And everything that I am from here on out is inside out
Think about it
Lately I’ve been searching
Got big questions but no answers
And I get the feeling deep inside
And I’ve waited for ya
Since my past life

Listen

Is there anybody out there
Or am I on my own
With the moonlight shining down on my soured soul
And the four walls closing in is worse than the mirror
Of the corner of my mind
And the pressure has been breaking down my walls
And I know I’m not getting much closer anytime soon—fore
The more I extricate myself I fall
Into the background of my soul
Is anybody listening
Or am I just alone in the corners of my mind
With the corners of my mind

Listen world
Just sending this to let you know
Got in a little hiccup about 5 years ago
Got swallowed up—sucked into a black hole
Just got thrown out the other side
It’s a nice way of saying I ain’t coming home
At all
At least not any time soon
Each hour feels like a year
And even with no gravity
The weight still find a way to hold me down
Guess that’s just the price you pay
For the answers that are just so hard to define
I’ve been seeking my whole life to find a meaning at a distance
To realize it was all in front of me the whole time
And for that you know I’m sorry
I’m sorry
But you will never be alone
By the time you get the message I won’t be alive
But you will never be alone
By the time you get this message I won’t have survived my mission baby
But I’ll be in spirit with you all the time

Over the Years

Hello it’s been a while
I’ve been expecting your call
And the fruits are ready in season
No need for a reason
You can keep your explanation
Everything that’s willed to be will come to fruition
Picking up like yesterdays
Never felt like it was so far away
Never appreciate what you have until it’s gone
I know it takes some time
Old hearts been worse for wear
Put that intention into better days
And it comes with the season of change
I know it hurts sometimes
It’s so much harder to heal that heavy heart
But I know it’s getting better over the years
Those expectations put you in a role
That you don’t recognize and now you’re cold
And you done boxed up yourself and you put yourself on hold
Why you pursuing every goal that's gonna get you gold?
Now you upset cuz you conformed and now you fit the mould
And now you gotta break it down so you can get to the root
So you can sow those seeds next time
I know it takes some time
Old hearts been worse for wear
Put that intention into better days
And it comes with the season of change
I know it hurts sometimes
It’s so much harder to heal that heavy heart
But I know it’s getting better over the years

So much realer than the real thing
Or maybe it’s a dream come true
When I’m with you
I’m no different from the background
The focus been put on you
It’s like a dream
I thought we could take some time baby
Just me and you
I’ve been tripping off the other side baby
You know I still got my sights set on you
See if it’s right with you
I wanna get deeper into you

Mirage

Another novice move, I lost it all
Running with scissors now I’m cut apart
And I gambled it all off on a dream of you
Thoughts of you night and day
The desert of my dreams I’m high and dry
My fingers crossed, just a mirage
Well I’m hoping so
Right where I left it
It’s my heart no turning back
I’ve been searching this dimension and it’s a fact
It’s true
Nobody can do it quite like you do
Ring ring, guess who on the other line?
Tuning into your dreams from the next wave from your next life
Took long enough to find Meridith and get the life lines
I’ve been calling collect
And I keep ringing you cuz I can get through
And I’m wondering
Do you ever think of me like I think of you?
Remember those old times looking up at the stars all night long
I’ll tell you one thing before I let you go
Next time you look up in the night sky
You ain’t never be alone
No one can do like you do

You think it’s over
You take the easy route
Try and run away
Thought we’ve been through this all before
Time and time again
Don’t you think it’s getting old?
Especially when you know you’re meant to merge with the cycle
There’s something in you still attached to
You ain’t letting go no no no no no
I’ll hold the space for you and me
It can’t be like it used to be
Remember when you wake
Most times it feels realer than a dream
Sometimes I feel like the sweetest moments are so far away
Till I remember when the dream I dream gets the best of me
I’ll hold the place for you and me to discover
A dream within a dream
Stuck in the grey matter
