Regardless 01:12
Girl how long can we pretend Pretend that this is not the end Inside these walls I’m closing in Regardless Hey girl how long can we pretend Pretend that this is not the end Inside these walls I’m closing in Regardless I’m saying that… I’d say that love Is about being understood And understand the other person And that love Is about watering each other like flowers And see each other grow And if we’re not growing right Maybe we have to look at the growing conditions Maybe we have to change the dirt so we can grow I think love is kinda like that

In The Cutty 02:42
Yeah you know the deal I be keepin it chill But come Westside if you seekin a thrill We can let the top drop deep in the hills Hit the bunny with the backshot geekin on pills Birdshot buckshot bussin for real Stuck on steel leave it deep in your grill Put me in a trance leave me under your spell Reciprocate the feelin girl i know you can tell It’s magnetic I can’t get it nowhere else When I’m around you we can’t control ourselves Anytime you need it you can ring my bell Doin’ it and doin’ it and doin’ it well But her man don’t know that I tapped that pussy And her man don’t know I was all in the cutty But her man don’t know I was all in the pussy And her man don’t know I was all in the cutty Some of these niggaz they’ll buy you the world Ball players rap niggaz jockin you girl She know I be deep sea diving for real Can’t please you like me tongue kissing the pearl Creepin all through the hotel sheets Fuckin all week at the Air BnB I be in the cutty but we keepin it low She be real loud when I’m deep with the stroke This is how we do it like Montell Jordan Swimming in the pussy ‘til six in the morning Push it in the cut when I’m grippin your butt Let your burst first I be making you bust Legs start shaking with the slightest of touch I know that last night felt stronger than lust Fell so deep I was all in a rush Now I’m catching feelings I don’t know who to trust But her man don’t know that I tapped that pussy And her man don’t know I was all in the cutty But her man don’t know I was all in the pussy And her man don’t know I was all in the cutty But her man don’t know that I tapped that pussy And her man don’t know I was all in the cutty But her man don’t know I was all in the pussy And her man don’t know I was all in the cutty

Our Story 02:00
I know it’s been a minute but I’m calling for you now You really let me down when you thought that I would drown Nobody came around I was sinking Caged bird singing lullabies to his demons Curve ball swinging young Joc Pedersen Didn’t have the discipline for listening to reason Didn’t have the patience I was beefing you was vegan Couldn’t get in sync when I was coming you was leaving Daily disagreements always on defense Still trying to win your heart despite me filing grievance I know you got the magic Your static is attractive And now we back at it My favorite bad habit Love me and destroy me Praise me then ignore me Avoid me and annoy me This is our story Back and forth with the cat and mouse Happy home shit we burnt the house All the things I hear through word of mouth Make me wanna go a different route But I’m still U-turning despite the news I’m learning Temporary happiness to satisfy the savages Praying on emotions and questioning devotion Break my heart open mend it every time we touch Feeling free and feeling stuck all at once Complex lovers undercover fucks Love me and destroy me Praise me then ignore me Avoid me and annoy me This is our story

Stress Free 02:05
Man make the money money never make the man Man in the mirror never seems to understand Self deprecation is part of the devil’s plan And to live in comparison is hella embarrassing Poison for the mind mind fucking my time Because the man in the mirror that’s me I just aim to spend my whole life tax free I just want to float down the river stress free But I tend to paddle upstream until i sink Tend to over smoke and i tend to overthink Wonder if my girl giving pussy to these NBA niggaz She’s a good woman so I know I’m probably tripping Wrestle insecurities all of them hard to live with Try to keep the hatred out my spirit Yeah I want the digits but I don't want the emptiness I express the passion but I avoid the trendy shit All I’m really meant to do here is do me Do you understand money never make the man You heard what I’m sayin money never make the man Do you understand money never make the man You know what I’m sayin money never make the man Do you understand money never make the man You heard what I’m sayin money never make the man Do you understand money never make the man Hundred grand in your hand money never make the man Man make the money I could spend bands and go broke again chasing a dream You see the glare from the screen ain’t all that it seems It seems people stay stuck in them same routines Your self esteem it don’t beam it make way for the demons Still scoring buckets when they hating on defense Putting up numbers can’t block my achievements Made it through the cracks I’m the rose in the cement Growing i was glowing when the world was sleeping Felt the rain drops through the holes in the ceiling It was man down confidence was leaking

Bussitopen 02:12
What we see is what we do Are just reflections of me and you What we see is what we do Are just reflections of what is true Girl you looking sweet with that good energy Bust it open baby please let me see your good energy Bust it open I’m your city for a week let’s keep this going I sink too deep into your ocean now we floating I put in overtime I work for that promotion We play this on repeat on Bloor Street west end New lovers best friends Ass fat waist thin Smell good soft skin I’m falling all in Deep connection no log-in Slum village I’m calling out to Baby I’m selfish

I’m always on the move but you always on my mind Been around the globe a couple times still building Want to settle down have a wife couple children But I’m chasing women who be playing with my feelings And now you fell in love with a villain vice versa Never know when that pretty face might hurt you Never know when bae gon’ transform to burglar It’s murder You’re always on my mind On my mind You always on the move yeah you always hard to find why you never call why you never bang my line Why we get involved if we never make the time I don't want to play the game so I guess I’ll pay the fine I wonder if you do this by design just to stress me Probably hit decline on facetime just to vex me Then you can’t text me back that’s some bullshit Girl who the fuck you trying to fool with You’re always on my mind On my mind Don’t commit the crime if you can’t commit the time I heard you running around and that’s why you’re hard to find I thought you was an angel I thought you was divine Frequency is faulty so I watch you blur the lines Never knew that you would be a Judas in disguise The way you move it only breeds behavior I despise The way you move you gotta get creative with the lies Moving too fast and we’re running out of time You’re always on my mind

Reminder 02:12
We gon’ vibe it out Keep it smooth for you Put you in the zone Girl this ain’t the thing that you want to hear But I need to escape I’m gon’ get out of here You ain’t never there when I need you most Always disappearing like a fucking ghost I can’t find you Actions speak louder than words girl it’s just a reminder Me voy, lo siento, tengo que pensar, no quiero hacerte daño pero necesito tiempo. Te llamo cuando vuelva. Espero que puedas perdonarme, eres muy importante para mi Heart cold like an ice pack Pussy snap like a mouse trap Too deep I can’t bounce back Can’t swim so I drown in that Face frozen case closing Won’t hold you I’m off of that Give me love and affection and attention Need all of that When I give you my time girl it seems like you have none of that Can’t reach you don’t believe you When you tell me you love me back I don’t know what this is now I don’t know what it should be I don’t know if you ride or die I don’t know if you love me

Te dije que te queria, me acuerdo de ese momento, no te lo esperabas y no dijste nada. Es por eso que me fui, porque yo tampoco sé que decir pero sigo queriendote. Keep my foot on the gas Keep my hand on the wheel I’m still chasing the high I forgot how it feel Breakaway from the madness I don’t need the theatrics When I’m rollin with you You the cure for my sadness Bringing light to the blackness I’m seduced by the magic Still abusing the habit Fly me right through the exit ‘Cause when I’m rolling with you I’m love with the high And I’m feeling the vibe I get a lot off my mind Say when I’m rolling with you I get lost in the zone We explore the unknown You ain’t gotta go home This is where you belong Right here by my side We together forever like Bonnie and Clyde ‘Cause when I’m rolling with you Down the highway high Life is weighing me down You’re my key to the sky You can hop in my ride Sitting right by my side We together forever like Bonnie and Clyde ‘Cause when I’m rolling with you Down the highway high Life is weighing me down You’re my key to the sky You can hop in my ride Sitting right by my side We together forever like Bonnie and Clyde when I’m rolling with you Down the highway high Life is weighing me down You’re my key to the sky You can hop in my ride Sitting right by my side We together forever like Bonnie and Clyde Fuck the stress and the bills Take a moment to chill Gotta stay here forever Just escape from the world Fuck a job and a struggle We just post in our bubble Got the champagne popping Just to numb all our troubles Got the Nor-Cal reefer And the bass in the beat up See the waves in the ocean Same flow through the speaker Sounding wavy as hell But the feeling is deeper Better count all your blessings and adjust your receivers You got the perfect demeanor We in love with the chill I just puff on the chronic I don’t fuck with the pills I keep dodging the bullets ‘Cause I know how they feel They say that life ain’t easy They say the struggle is real But when I’m rolling with you Down the highway high Life is weighing me down You’re my key to the sky You can hop in my ride Sitting right by my side We together forever like Bonnie and Clyde ‘Cause when I’m rolling with you Down the highway high Life is weighing me down You’re my key to the sky You can hop in my ride Sitting right by my side We together forever like Bonnie and Clyde when I’m rolling with you Down the highway high Life is weighing me down You’re my key to the sky You can hop in my ride Sitting right by my side We together forever like Bonnie and Clyde

You got the dopamine Hey you the wettest dream Hey you my everything Without the wedding ring I learned to take it slow Avoid the avalanche but when you kissed my lips I had to take a chance Make me fall in love again I’m feeling up again And we was bundled in Just like the cable plan You was speaking French baby I didn’t understand Miscommunication complex But I’m a simple man You said I’m in my feelings I said you’re probably right ‘Cause you be on my mind But always out of sight Make me fall in love again I fall in love again I fall in love again Let’s take a second chance I need to break the habit I’m doing the devil’s dance You know you got me stuck You got me in a trance

Love Wins 01:43
I used to have a shorty way back in the day Banging ass body and immaculate face Dressed to the nine with the finest of taste Shorty was a dime chose up in the game I used to feel the same we was king and queen Signals got switched I don’t know what changed Nights grew cold look at what we became Now the nightmares feel so routine Now my dream girl caused so much pain She didn’t feel a thing I was so insane Every now and then you get burnt by the flame But you live and you learn earn the chance to love again At the end of every winter you see another spring Understand the rain is a temporary thing Growth is the thesis rose in the cement Love will return like waves to the beaches ‘cause Love wins in the end No matter if you sin love wins in the end Love wins in the end Everynow and then love wins in the end Love wins in the end Once again love wins in the end
