BAD ONE [Prod. @sondersonics]

[Preface]

You locked me up inside a cage I thought that I'd never leave 
You were all I ever knew so I turned to a fiend 
You gave me love, you gave me pain you gave me all that I'd need
You gave me strength and somehow gave me the air that I breathe 
and I was tied from my arms, to my legs and my knees 
you gave me cuts and some scars that would never recede 
tied from arms, to my legs and my knees
you gave me cuts and some scars that I couldn’t believe

[Verse]

It was late - 3am, but I can’t go to bed
Honestly, I’m terrified by all the thoughts in my head
Staring at the wall - reason why i can’t go to sleep
And if pass out now, then I’ll see you in my dreams 
And i don’t feel like dealing with all of that confrontation 
“I’m not trying to be rude, but I don’t think you can make it"
I think about all of the chances that I know i should’ve taken 
I know life is just a game, my brains tellin’ me not to play it
But my head is out of space and
I don’t know if I can take it
The medicine starts to fade and 
My ears begin to start ringing
I remember this feeling
An intrusive invasion 
Please go back to your room
Fuck, you’re so damn impatient 
Can you give me a second 
I think I’m starting to panic
I think that I’m goin manic
I just don’t understand it 
I see the person in myself
that’s unlike my reflection 
I see the blood on the floor
that’s in a different direction 
I look up and see a body
that looks awfully familiar
I scan the room for a weapon
Then I look in the mirror
With all the blood on my shirt
You’d think that I was the killer
But then looked down at the floor 
And saw that I was the victim

Let Go w/ Kam Michael

[Verse 1]

And I don't know, I don't know, no
Made me feel like I was the only person above all, yeah
Break my back, you broke my bones
All the weight I carry on my shoulders just to make you smile

Carry all the pain just to call you mine
Sometimes I feel like I convinced you of the life
We could've had this time, I threw away my pride
I wanted forever and ever, not really just tonight

[Pre-chorus]

I think that I was enough, no
Treated me like shit, then I guess I'm finally done, oh
I'll never forget how I felt no
Remember what you said, when you tried to say:

[Chorus]

Baby I'm sorry
For the way I hurt you
I never ever meant to
Baby I'm sorry
For the way I hurt you
It was always just a game, I played you

Now we're all the way down
And I can't make it out
Now we're all the way down
And I can't get us out

[Bridge] (2x)

And I can't deny it
You broke my heart again, no
And no I won't fight it
Don't wanna wake up on the edge

[Verse 2]

And I know I, mean more than that
And I know I, can't take it back
And I know I, can't make you love me
Can't make you love me, so:

[Chorus]

Baby I'm sorry
For the way I hurt you
I never ever meant to
Baby I'm sorry
For the way I hurt you
It was always just a game, I played you

(Hook)

Don’t wanna try me today
I’ll fuck it up how I want it
I’m tired of holding me back
So today I’d rather just flaunt it
If you don’t know who I am
Then pretty soon you will
I know that they think that I can’t 
but i know that I can so I’ll go for the kill 

(Chorus 4x)

Go, go, go
I just wanna

(Verse one)

I just wanna go and get it get it 
watch me make a hundred when I blow
‘em away
Top down, C7 today
How many figures? See seven a day
I guess I’ve figured my annual pay 
I’m the boss of myself, I got nothing to say
You think I sound naive? Really, what can I say?
I’m so tired and tired of wastin’ away

(3x)

I gotta go get my money
she try to distract me, I don’t give a fuck no
I think it’s funny she call me attached 
and act like I can’t even leave home 
You obviously don’t get the notion
I’ll say it again I don’t deal with no fake love
I’ll curve you again and again and again
I gotta go make me a new home 

(Hook)

Don’t wanna try me today
I’ll fuck it up how I want it
I’m tired of holding me back
So today I’d rather just flaunt it
If you don’t know who I am
Then pretty soon you will
I know that they think that I can’t 
but i know that I can so I’ll go for the kill 

(Chorus 4x)

Go, go, go
I just wanna

Lyrics:

(Verse 1)

“I don’t mean to disappoint ya, but I think that it’s over”
Holy shit it’s finally over 
You should’ve listened when I told ya:

Stay back, don’t come close
I got walls made of ice, and my heart froze 
I got pain deep inside, so my door’s closed 
and I-

(Pre-chorus)

And I’m breakin’ down, my tears all on the floor yeah
Never thought I’d have to tell the story 
But now I’m shaking, feelin’ unimportant 

Now I’m breakin’ down
My tears all on the floor yeah
Never thought I’d have to tell the story
But now I’m shaking, feelin’ unimportant

(Chorus)

(8x)
Da da, da Da da 

(Verse 2)

Pieces all around me
So sharp how it cuts deep 
Hear me sing this melody 

I looked right when I turned left
And it hasn’t been bright ever since then
It’s so cold and I’m freezin’

(Pre-chorus)

She told me:
“Flowers only bloom when it’s dark”
So it’s funny how I thought you were the sun
Now I’m bloomin’ when it’s all said and done
Now I’m bloomin’ when it’s all said and done 

“Flowers only bloom when it’s dark”
So it’s funny how I thought you were the sun
Now I’m bloomin’ when it’s all said and done
Now I’m bloomin’ when it’s all said and done 

(Chorus)

(8x)
Da da, da Da da

Lyrics: 

Verse 1 [Giovanni]

Little my, betty by, sleep until the sun'll rise
Hopefully you're up in time, wait oh shit (uh)
Workin' with a feeble mind, but he got the reddest eyes
Angry muhfucka rollin' with his clique 
Why he so upset? G- Got 'em workin' overtime
Thinkin' every single night: "I'm up next" (uh)
Now he got a better mind, and he got the reddest eyes
Angry muhfucka thinkin' "Get my check"

That's what's up

Every single day I see people tryna play me
I've been rollin' through it; flow switch on a daily
I've been makin' money moves, yeah I'm goin crazy
If you try to talk talk 'bout Gio, better save it
With the way I walk walk, you would think I'm famous
Yeah I'm in a drop-top; black lines painted
Pops always told me that I shouldn't try to aim it yeah
So I shoot my shot shot, look at how I made it

(Verse 1) - plante

Riding in a hatchback I don't need your snapchat
Know I got a fat ass and my girl slap it
I can make my voice deep, i can make it higher
I said that i got some sleep but I'm just a liar
Famous in the cyberspace, wont see me in a flyer
Look at all my clothes, baby im just looking flyer
Got acetaminophen inside my melatonin bottle
Don't call me baby I don't sip on bottles 
i like the way she walks; she likes waddles
when I'm in the stu' this shit fire need goggles
I'm with Matthias, been bros since fossils
I'm writing midis like this shit a novel

Intro [Giovanni]

Y'all been takin' so many L's, yeah back2back like what
I feel like Cavasoul with the blunt, I'm finna get it get it how I want
Yeah this is that cash flow add it up, this is that cash flow add it up

Verse 1 [Giovanni]

Nah I'm just messin'
I see all these people around me, lookin' like clowns, and I feel like drownin' (uh)
I think that they could do better if they would just pay attention to surrounds
I am not holdin' back, if you don't like the message I'm speakin' then walk out the back please
I don't have time for the people who wait and talk shit about what other people are sayin'
Without any reason, but it's more convenient, to say lots of words that don't have any meanin' 
I see the people who suffer around me and don't do a thing, and it's got me screamin- AAA 

I get so angry I need to control it 
But the lately the problems, I been goin' through 'em
I am so sorry I don't have excuses
But lately the problems, I been goin' through 'em

Chorus (2x) [Giovanni]

Ride 'round town, everything loud
Wait a second like-
Please quiet down, don't make a sound
Just listen like-
Just listen like-

Verse 2 [Giovanni]

When I step in the function, they all lookin' at me like: "why the fuck are you here?"
I'll say it once but never again, I'll set it straight and make it all clear
I made a promise to what's in my head, they always told me to never take fear
Fulfillin' my wishes before I am dead, grant me wishes before I am- (uh)

I had to keep quiet, cause all of the noise is makin' my ear ache
Like everyone be silent, all of the noise is makin' me freak aye
I head into battle, grippin' my sword, it's still in my sheath aye
Like everyone be silent, all of the noise is makin' me freak wait like

Chorus (2x) [Giovanni]

Ride 'round town, everything loud
Wait a second like-
Please quiet down, don't make a sound
Just listen like-
Just listen like-

Lyrics:

(Chorus)

Breath, slow down
It’s only one road you can go down
Only one path you can take now 
Like breathe, oh wow
Finally see the light, watch it go down
Friday night dancin in the sun now 

(Verse 1)

I feel stuck in my awareness, I’m not tryna sound arrogant 
It’s just that I feel like there’s so much goin’ on 
around me 
They expect me to be hard as iron, and that’s word to robert downey 
Watchin’ it slowly surround me, everything is cloudy

I look deep into the mirror
And I see me frowning 
I wish everything was clearer
So the rain won’t fuckin drown me
Started pickin up the slack 
For all the people that’s around me 
Started pickin up the pieces
So they’re not upset like I be

And maybe that’s the real issue
Need to do it for myself and not because I fuckin’ miss you 
If I get back in that story I’m gon’ need a fuckin tissue
Hopefully you understand why I no longer fuckin need you

Sorry everybody for my language 
Lately I’ve been so upset that i start causin hella damage
I’m not violent, just depressed and it’s a never-ending cycle
I just hope that I can be at peace when my eyes close 

(Chorus)

Breath, slow down
It’s only one road you can go down
Only one path you can take now 
Like breathe, oh wow
Finally see the light, watch it go down
Friday night dancin in the sun now 

(Verse 2)

See nowadays I don’t even worry ‘bout what
could’ve been
It’s taken me so long to finally figure out where I fit  in
They wanna smoke up and get high and wanna be a kid
I can’t even blame ‘em cause nobody listens 

No one hears me, hears you
Here is me, what am I supposed to do 
I don’t get no fuckin sleep
What the fuck I’m goin through 
Tell me, I need answers please
what the fuck I’m goin through 
Tell me, tell me, honestly 

“Just, tell me what’s wrong
I wish that you would talk to me”
I said you better go home
I know you’d rather try to help because that’s better for your conscience
Bur if I’m being honest
I’d rather you feel guilty
Than talk about what I’m lost in
Than talk about my nonsense
I just need to process
the concept I’ve forgotten

Lately I’ve been locked in
Or maybe just a bad friend
Depends on where you’re watchin
Maybe I should stop and -

(Chorus)

Breath, slow down
It’s only one road you can go down
Only one path you can take now 
Like breathe, (woo), oh wow
Finally see the light, watch it go down
Friday night dancin in the sun now
