Kissin' On My Tattoos

You Deserve

I got this imaginary gun in my hand,
Might pull the trigger, might be done.
Heart's saying stay, mind's screaming run,
Caught in the crossfire of what we’ve become.

Give me the key — I wanna be out of this room,
Overstayed at this heartbreak hotel, I assume.
Bullet's loaded and starting to really show,
Heart says stay, but mind's all set to go.

Headaches, heartaches, what's goin' on?
I wanna be out of your prison.
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.
Every fight, every lie, every tear,
Let me get out of here (outta here).
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.

One bullet, but I ain't playing roulette,
One bullet to the heart, I'm done with it.
Freedom trigger, I just wanna be free,
Freedom trigger, for once,just let me be
(Let me be happy )

I've been drowning in love that's never been fair,
Now I just wanna be anywhere but here.
Your every word's like a knife, twisted around,
I've taken too much, I’ve been slowly breaking down.

Give me the key — I wanna be out of this prison,
You have done nothing but feed me your poison.
Finger on the trigger, this time I’ll be braver,
Heart's full of fear, mind won't ever waver.

The weight of this love is crushing down,
But my mind's no longer bound.
I’ve been torn apart, been pulled by the tide,
I’m breaking free, nothing more to hide.

Pulling the trigger on this imaginary gun,
To let you know — I’m tired and I’m done.
Breaking out of this imaginary prison,
To let you know — I’m faded and gone.

Headaches, heartaches, what's goin' on?
I wanna be out of your prison.
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.
Every fight, every lie, every tear,
Let me get out of here (outta here).
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.

One bullet, but I ain't playing roulette,
One bullet to the heart, I'm done with it.
Freedom trigger, I just wanna be free,
Freedom trigger, for once,just let me be
(See a smile on me)

Trigger's pulled and battle's done,
Free of you, the pain’s outshone.
Freedom trigger, I’m finally free,
Freedom trigger,
Trigger's pulled and battle's done,
Free of you, the pain’s outshone.
Freedom trigger, I’m finally free,
Freedom trigger,

Freedom Trigger

Born and bred from the streets of New Orleans, Louisiana, enter into the game, 20-year-old August Alsina...

With the love and hustle of the Crescent City running through his veins, August is eager to follow in the footsteps of the NOLA music legends that paved his way. His recently inked deal Def Jam Recordings looks to be a great step in the right direction, but music wasn’t always in his future. 

August learned at an early age that drugs and money could make you, or break you. With both his father and stepfather battling crack addiction, August’s mother moved their family to Houston, Texas in search of a fresh start. But Houston provided no happy ending. For years a young August endured a home life plagued by drugs and violence. At just 14, he got word from New Orleans that is father, August Sr., lost his battle with drugs and alcohol. 

In an attempt to escape his reality, August took to Youtube, where he posted dozens of homemade performance videos. His clips covering Musiq Soulchild, Lyfe Jennings and others went viral, generating millions of views in just over a month. It seemed that he was finally taking his first steps toward a bright future in music, but just a year later, reality hit home when his best friend was shot and killed in the streets of Houston. As quickly as August appeared, he vanished form Youtube, back to the real world. With tensions mounting at home, 16-year-old August was kicked out. Alone, he returned to New Orleans and took to the streets, selling drugs as a means of survival. 

With his older brother also in the streets hustling, it wouldn’t be long before August learned that the addiction to money could be as deadly as the addiction to drugs. Just days before August’s 18th birthday, his older brother was gunned down in New Orleans East, another unsolved murder in one of the nations most dangerous cities. “I never expected them [the police] to find his killer”, August explains. “People die everyday in the streets of New Orleans. Unfortunately, death has become a way of life,” but not for August. His brother’s death became his motivation to not become a statistic, but to pursue his musical aspirations on an entirely new level.

Under the guidance of Noontime Unlimited (management and production company), August relocated to Atlanta in 2011 to begin carving his own musical path with his life experiences at the center of his artistry. He recently teamed up with Hoodrich/MMG’s own DJ Scream for the release of his debut mixtape, ‘The Product’, which spawned the internet and radio buzzing anti-love single, “Sucka” which features fellow New Orleans crooner Lloyd. 

Yet to reach 21 years old, with already a lifetime of experiences behind him, August is living proof that your past doesn’t have to dictate your future, and that life’s hardships can be the motivation required for success. With Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter The Dream prepping August’s debut project for release through his Radio Killa/Def Jam imprint, the path to success has been laid. Look for August to make 2013 his official coming out party.
