Ride It Out
01:42
|

pill on the pillow
wind in the window
waiting for the feeling to pass
thoughts in the gutter
head full of thunder
let down by greener grass
and i'm gonna have to ride it out
when it rains it hurricane's
in the spirit people get slain
always loved too much of a good thing
pain in the pleasure of a blood stain
waste the future in the shower drain
turned on without an offspring
and i'm gonna have to ride it out

Something in the Water
03:32
|

over and over again
we meet up in the dead of night when there is no light
over and over again
i order for the both of us because you get no love
you wore a hoodie again
it's like you are invisible this is criminal
but it'll happen over and over again
let's find a booth and slide on in
forget what just happened
this is the part where we grow
it is a storm with a rainbow
you gotta open up and say what's on your mind
this is the part where we flow
take it easy take it slow-mo
there are lines on my face but i swear we're in our prime
there's something in the water
making me feel a little lighter
there's something in the water
making me feel like i could rise above
over and over again
we take the punches on the chin, we're both so sensitive
but over and over again
you find a way to lift me up till we're invincible
there's something in the water
making me feel a little lighter
there's something in the water
making me feel like i could rise above

Born to Win
02:31
|
|||
saddled with the shadow of my bright past
i lived it up now i just live it down
achievements stand like roadblocks for an outlaw
success is something you must overcome
and prove you're more than just where you came from
the mirror can't reflect what's in your blood
the mirror can't reflect what's in my blood
i'm born to win
can you tell that is my motto
born to win
that's the only way i know
born to win
i'll tattoo it on my shoulder
born to win
close your eyes and watch me go
that's the only way i know
close your eyes and watch me
i could grow my beard or shave it off
this is the only face that i got
permanent identity crisis
a purebred who would rather be a mutt
the underdog who didn't know he was
is digging deep and playing in the mud
a cubic zirconia in the rough
i'm born to win
can you tell that is my motto
born to win
that's the only way i know
born to win
go ahead and ask my mother
born to win
that's the only way i know
close your eyes and watch me go
close your eyes and watch me

Tell It to Your Mama
03:31
|

we found each other much too soon
underage and 22
we shared the best days of our youth
wild and free, no parachute
but now the bell can't be unrung
something right went something wrong
who knew the knot could be undone
not family not anyone
go tell it to your mama
tell her that you don't need me no more
tell her that it's over
cause you and i both know
you and i both know
i hope there's bodies we can do
something new, somebody cool
but they'll never be nobody like you
body like you
now your mom and dad are watching
the same show in separate rooms
i don't wanna end up being all alone but still with you
maybe rain will kiss the flowers dying at the root
but for now we got to move
go tell it to your mama
tell her that you don't need me no more
tell her that it's over
cause you and i both know
you and i both know

Where Is My Love
03:55
|
|||
don't ask me what i did last night
i stayed in
don't ask me what i've been up to
nothing
you'll find me sittin' up in my room
listening to the golden age of r&b
was hoping to get fired and then
i got fired
and heaven knows i'm miserable
fulltime
it's like i'm swimming in the ocean
till i can't feel the sand beneath my feet
i look around and think
where is my love
there is a light inside my heart that is covered up
i better bleed out of all this bad blood
where is my love
i look around and think
where is my love
now every wedding's got me feeling like throwing up
i better bleed out of all this bad blood
where is my love
i'm fighting with my friends again
politics
while cops beat up another kid
for kicks
we see the high hopes turn into low self asteam
shame shame shame shame
shame on you
shame shame shame shame
shame on me
i look around and think
where is my love
there is a light inside my heart that is covered up
i better bleed out of all this bad blood
where is my love
i look around and think
where is my love
now every wedding's got me feeling like throwing up
i better bleed out of all this bad blood
where is my love
