thank you for sharing man, this is beautiful

we are fine but we're not (drmabeats)

Lyrics:

okay clearly i dont think that we'll be making it thru
you got these thoughts in your mind and you dont clarify
time could expire but i'll still stay by your side
it's evident to me that you dont see what i see

i just tried to bury the hatchet but you dug my grave
embed it in my neck wont see another day
i just wanna be okay but i dont think i can
it's so strange to me how quick you found another man

[bridge]

okay clearly i dont think that we'll be making it thru
you got these thoughts in your mind and you dont clarify
time could expire but i'll still stay by your side
it's evident to me that you dont see what i see

i just tried to bury the hatchet but you dug my grave
embed it in my neck wont see another day
i just wanna be okay but i dont think i can
it's so strange to me how quick you found another ma--

[skrwd]

I see all the shit you say
I heard about him
He seems great
Bet he lays with you all day and knows exactly what to say
Pay attention to the signs
Know his hands don’t fit like mine
Might be gone inside your mind but you’re still alive in mine
I regret how I moved
Sometimes i wanna redo
No matter how hard you try
There’s just no stopping the truth
Might have a girl in the room 
But I still wish she was you
So anytime that you want
You can come thru
I been workin OT
Posted up in OC
Shawty want Chanel 
She can get it, girl you know me
Even after all this time I feel you in the late night

[getbetter]

okay clearly i dont think that we'll be making it thru
you got these thoughts in your mind and you dont clarify
time could expire but i'll still stay by your side
it's evident to me that you dont see what i see

i just tried to bury the hatchet but you dug my grave
embed it in my neck wont see another day
i just wanna be okay but i dont think i can
it's so strange to me how quick you found another man

hold me close for just a single night
time goes by as the stars change overnight
and i dont wanna be on the receiving side
i already gave too much of my life

so dont hold me down
while i try to seek out shelter
cause this life that im living it aint the same as it was
and im tryna find some shelter from the storm i know is comin

bury it ft. skrwd (branwen)

lyrics:

sometimes things dont amount to much
even when the things that led you there
gave you such a rush..
and baby im sorry that it didnt work out
and theres really no point n screamin n shoutin
but damn you look good  only wearin a towel
oh god give me the strength not to look back now.,.

i cant move on with you
breathin down my neck...
i guess its time that i 
leave you in the past
i need to go on
to whatever happens next
you said you loved me once but
i think this is for the best

i think its for the best...
even after all those long nights with you
layin on my chest
its  all runnin' through my head
nothins ever felt as lonely as this bed
oh...as lonely as this bed...

chorus repeats

this is for the best [+nate2timez]

LYRICS
I've seen my future and it's not looking great
I fear fate's something that can't be escaped
Two options staring me dead in the face
I can no longer afford to look away

If not now
Then it'll be too late
By the time I get around to getting straight
But if I stick to my guns
Put myself first for once
Then maybe I can shed this dead weight

It's deadly
It's weighing heavily on me
But it doesn't have to be this way
In my effort to get better
I've learned a lot about insanity

LYRICS
It’s hard for me to make peace with this
Can’t shake this sense of abandonment
You left me feeling misplaced
Like I don’t really fit in
You were a friend to me back then
But now we’re broken irrevocably
It can’t be mended
Who knows what went on in your head
The path you chose was selfish

But I stuck out my neck anyway
And I believed you every time you swore to me that you’d change
The path you chose could only lead one way
Towards your self destruction and an early grave

But what about all those you left behind
At only twenty-five
That’s too young to die
To put your vice above your life
That’s suicide

lyrics:
I can't win 'em all
I'm on fuck 'em all
I won't take the fall
If i did no wrong
I don't know what to say
People want me gone
I can't live my life this way
I had to change up

I can't spell it out
Where I'm from, where I'll go
I know I've been trying hard
Getting out of my home
It's a cycle that repeats
I ain't getting any sleep
I'm so tired of the cold
Wear the willow when it weeps

I could cry, but the tears all dried up
Baby what's your sign? I got trouble keeping up
And I'll always take the drive, I don't wanna fly up
Monaco my thighs and the chain is grape tucked

I want it all on me
Winter, fall on me
In the sky, turning blind
Keep it tall on me
I'm alright, no I'm fine
You can call on me
My disguise, in your eyes
Nothing altering

Nothing altering
Catch me when I'm faltering
I wanna be something so badly you know that I'm trying, you know that I'm offering
But you see through me
Purple with the bruising
Keep it in my cup
'Cause it's the only thing that's soothing

I've been like done, I've been like fuck 'em all
I'm never having much luck with y'all
I was just trying to show some love
But I'm left here in the dust
Cold like the winter
And I don't want to hinder
So I've been fading slowly
Wonder why I'm so bitter

I can't win 'em all
I'm on fuck 'em all
I won't take the fall
If i did no wrong
I don't know what to say
People want me gone
I can't live my life this way
I had to change up

I can't spell it out
Where I'm from, where I'll go
I know I've been trying hard
Getting out of my home
It's a cycle that repeats
I ain't getting any sleep
I'm so tired of the cold
Wear the willow when it weeps

[chorus]
you’re moving on
and i’m stuck here wading through snow
abandoned me, i know for sure
this story’s been written before yeah
and your warmth
is gone and it’s not coming back
we’re both walking down different paths
for better or worse, in the past

[verse]
i’ve been driving down these roads we
used to cross, ain’t been that long
i sift through these memories
you left with me these things i keep
remember nights spent where we were talking
cause over time they happened less often
i feel the cold grow as yellow flickers away
you got your purpose and i had left mine
two broken people lost deep within time
and moments now turned to memories and waves

[chorus]
you’re moving on
and i’m stuck here wading through snow
abandoned me, i know for sure
this story’s been written before yeah
and your warmth
is gone and it’s not coming back
we’re both walking down different paths
for better or worse, in the past
you’re moving on
and i’m stuck here wading through snow
abandoned me, i know for sure
this story’s been written before yeah
and your warmth
is gone and it’s not coming back
we’re both walking down different paths
for better or worse, in the past

LYRICS
Rock bottom
Lower than I’ve ever been
Only hanging on for the sake of my friends
‘Cause I got people who depend on me
And a couple bad habits like dependency

I worry ‘bout my mom
How she’d get on without me
I wonder a lot if you’d still think about me
Only hanging on just to spite those who doubt me
So throw me a rope because I feel like I’m drowning

I’m running out of ways to say this
I hate who I’ve been
Need to make changes
I’ve lost all motivation
Along with my patience
Too long I have waited

I’m running out of ways to say
That I hate myself
Wish that I could change
I think it’s for the best
You and I stay estranged
You wouldn’t recognize the shell I’ve become these days

(lilac heart)
Rock bottom
I’m running out of ways to say
I miss the way you’d get under my skin
Breaking bottles broken glass
Is all that’s left of my ‘lil head
I don’t even know where all the time went

I fell asleep in the snow
And woke up burning on the sidewalk
Take this away before I hurt someone
Try to cover the pain
The broken shards are showing through the holes I burnt into my sleeves

Ive been waiting for a long while now
But i still see sadness in faces when i walk around
Money dont always buy happiness, but it sure makes it easier
Yeah

Get up, start over
In need of luck
Grab a four leaf clover
That shit don't exist
Im mad til im throwing fists
And i'm outrageously pissed
Took a shot, and my shot missed
Get back up, dont give up
Keep on moving i know ur tough
Got a couple dollars, couple dollars enough

Keep that purple in my cup
Sippin lean it keeps me up
Smoke a lil bit got me wavy
Poutine on this track ima pour a lil gravy
What u really saying, i aint got a clue
Im just talking my shit really whatchu finna do
Oh nothing, ive been fine
Ima say what i say, my whole life

money = happiness? [prod. saint mike]

and how sad must i be 
to fall for you
just lay me down lightly
not far from you
you don’t even like me
but i’ll call for you
i smile when you bite me
i’m so confused 
just pass me the knife please
i’ll cut you
you did this to spite me
you’re cruel

my soul lives while my body dies (wisssery)
