If I had money, and you had time
If I were willing, and you were mine
Don’t you doubt it, we’d be told
That we’re never gonna make it, ‘till we grow old.
Showing teeth is not in style
Love ‘till failure, not worthwhile
Shake this reverence of denial
No I’m never gonna fake it, I’m never growing cold
Scoping out the fires
Hopes high, proud of wearing hearts on our sleeves
Please…Bleed!
Those who suffer; those who doubt
Everywhere we go we feel left out
Cause we’ve been lectured, we’ve been taught
That you never gotta show it, never be caught
If I were to share my truth with you
Would you stay, or would this be through?
Well I’ve decided to be bold
No I’m never gonna fake it, No I’m never growing cold
These walls are caving in
There’s no need to hide what I’m here for
And for a while I feel
It might be real this time
I’m going back where I came from

Another Silent Bid

Do what you can, kid
Tricks up your sleeve, hid
Rid of your prejudice and never close your eye-lids
They don’t let us dream, so we won’t let them sleep
This isn’t going to be another silent bid.
Blood red shoes matching blood red hearts
Ticking all at once with those unread thought
Of a hundred darts aiming for the sky
Remember when they told you you’d never die?
And if bright lights burn as much as night
We might just have enough to make this right
Worst comes worst, this will never die
We’ve got everything against us except time
I don’t want to know things I will never see
With my own eyes like the ropes on the trees
Like the god in the skies or the devil in me
No I don’t want to know things I will never see
And I don’t want to hear about places that I’ll never go
Seen through the screen things will never show
Real as we know they can be
No I don’t want to know things I will never see
I’m telling you this frame of mind
Can really get me down sometimes
If there’s a point of no return
It’s been long since we passed it…Fuck that
Things will change you say
But step by step, not day by day
You cash your checks I guess I’ll pay my way
I’ll play my odds against you any day…not every day
Empires built on pride, hide.
Tugging at the strings of a rust-worn ride
Fear is finally changing sides
We’ve got everything against us…

Pressure (ft. Shing02)

It doesn’t matter who
You say it doesn’t matter when
But I need to know this time
I ask you by surprise
Do you love another man?
Cause I need to know this time
Sixteen hundred miles
Just to gain the upper hand
My cuts never bleed they shine
There’s a checkmate on your lips
I don’t ever want to hear
But I’m gonna know this time
I’m asking for another round
Of waterboarding and of sounds that no man ever should hear
Drawn by something one might feel
I don’t know, but I’ve been told a little pressure goes far…too far
this pressure, can’t relax
my ring my precious, mad to the max
my pal pascal's law is the crux
evidence, everything in a flux it sucks
just don’t make me feel the lesser man
I don’t need a confession either
seized the opportunity and lost my pride
got taken for granted and spun for a ride
kinda does matter when it messes my mind up
do unto others as you’d have them lined up
around the block like where do I sign up
reality check the lease up, give the keys up
so what am I doing bringing into the fold
holding a jacket on a shoulder just as cold
truth be told, honesty carries
more weight than carats of gold, oh

Yeah those girls are beautiful
But they don’t seem to have much fun
You’re hanging with your friends and you don’t care
You came here to sing those songs like…..
To dance like….
Girl it’s been a while since I did this last
I can’t enjoy the chase if we go this fast
That’s why this kind of place is a thing of the past
How many couples you know that met here?
Maybe I’m just an old fashioned guy
Like a quiet place where I can ask you why
You wear high heels if you’re 5’9?
Take ‘em off and we can go out tonight for dinner
I can tell that you ain’t a beginner
By the way you vanished into thin air
When I asked for the bill, I’ve been there
And I know the drill, so
Just let me take over tonight…so right
And I won’t let you down no you will not regret.
Took a couple seconds off your best time now it’s bed time
But you can’t get back to sleep cause you’re hoping for the next time
Seek me out and I’ll fulfill
But you know I’d like to chill first
I ain’t your regular drill girl.
Girl, I’m not as typical as you think
For me it ain’t difficult, that’s the thing
Love is a miracle but sex is lyrical
It’s all about spitting
Shake to the rhythm, it’ll make you sink
In the turbulent waters of a sexy dream
When the night is hot you’re my ice crean
I eat you all and leave you cold… you know what I mean
It’s a game that we all play
No matter what you believe in, we all play
And in the morning I’m leaving, it’s all said
With the same old feeling and a blurred head
These girls are beautiful
They wanna end up in Hollywood
I’d like to chill first, no sé tú

It’s hard to fir trust in suitcase
Zippers won’t close, when the tide turns
It’s hard to take love in a fixed dose
Will it wear off where the sun burns?
I don’t want you to go but I’d die before you hear these words
I’ll put on smiles for show, but you’re taking them all with you
Will I ever want to go back home, leave these tides
Take stock of what I compromised (Of what I tasted)?
Too late for closing in (there’s no escaping)
This state of mind I’m in
They never teach you how to hold on, two deep breaths and a so long.
You slip so well into the yawns of deep regret
That you’re six games down and set
I never said I don’t mind (Never gonna get what you came for)
Go your way (clever bets placed on a lost war)
I’ll go mine (I don’t want to ask you to wait more)
Raising your glass to a yell, telling myself:
I don’t need no one else.
We’re all waiting for that train to pass, and wave goodbye
Dreams cast with a simple sigh of resignation
But comfort too, that tough decisions will be made for you
There never was a future, or past, just one big question we need to ask:
Who were you praying for before you met me? I’ll never leave you if you let me.
