Lyrics:
No sleep for a week I️ been drinkin'
No sleep for a week yeah week
I️ fall apart, I️ fall apart

I️ drink I️ got friends on the weekend
I️ wake up same bed still geeked 
and I️ Fall apart, I️ fall apart

Everything but my head is the same
I️ wanna speak, I️ don’t know what to say 
I️ look around for somebody to blame

I️ don’t know how I️ got this way
The other day I️ seemed okay, 
But that’s just me, that’s just me

Every day I️ try to get better
But every night I️ fall with the sun
I️ got a mood that goes with the weather
Like the shade I’ll block out someone
I don’t know any different
I don’t know any better 
But it all looks the same to me

I️ need a woman that can show up and improve me
I️ need it like it’s in the movies
Before I️ fall apart, I️ fall apart

I️ don’t wanna sit still, come and move me
I️ need a push so I️ can get to where I️'m going 
or I’ll fall apart, I’ll fall apart

Everything but my head is the same
I️ wanna speak, I️ don’t know what to say 
I️ look around for somebody to blame

I️ don’t know how I️ got this way
The other day I️ seemed okay, 
But that’s just me, that’s just me

Every day I️ try to get better
But every night I️ fall with the sun
I️ got a mood that goes with the weather
Like the shade I’ll block out someone
I don’t know any different
I don’t know any better 
But it all looks the same to me

Lyrics
(Chorus)
You play the victim
Is it giving you your high? 
Problems come up, and I don't wanna fix em
Am I such a bad guy?

(Verse 1 - Fastlane Frank)
We goin back and forth
All these questions, no discussion- what you askin for? 
I give you all of me, you turn around and ask for more
Another peep I might just turn around and grab the door

I'm gettin dizzy you talkin circles around me 
You lost your chill this global warming got you grouchy
Break up then we make up, fool around until we drowzy
I know you feel the same about me like

(Chorus)
You play the victim
Is it giving you your high? 
Problems come up, and I don't wanna fix em
Am I such a bad guy? 

You wanna fight so that you've got control
But when you fight it's like you got no soul
things change and it's all good tomorrow
I just want a love that's not bought and borrowed

(Verse 2 )
We stayed up all night
We talk about everything (get high in the basement)
When did our love digress into nothing (now it's just scheduled conversation)

Moving through the cards somebody watch her
She actin crazy man somebody watch her
Watch her do it, kick me out of what's mine
Childish baby and it happens all the time

She run her mouth with that nothing to say
But if I speak my mind I hear this shit all day
She only with me cause I got expensive taste
But I'll be better off with one less picture frame

(Chorus)
You play the victim
Is it giving you your high? 
Problems come up, and I don't wanna fix em
Am I such a bad guy? 

You wanna fight so that you've got control
But when you fight it's like you got no soul
things change and it's all good tomorrow
I just want a love that's not bought and borrowed

Lyrics:
I know it’s hard sometimes
To get you out of my mind
And no I don’t know why
I look past the warning signs

I was never in this for the long haul
Realizing my pain was only my fault
Figuring out who I wanna be 
I took a step back to breath

Breathe, baby just breathe
Until you’re faded out, faded out of my mind
Breathe and maybe I’ll see
That I’ll make it out, make it out alive

I hear a lot of complaining about the pain your feeling
Infatuated by the hoes that don’t stick around
You should be focused on making it to the ceiling
But all they do is bring you down down down

I was never in this for the long haul
Realizing my pain was only my fault
Figuring out who I wanna be 
I took a step back to breath

Breathe, baby just breathe
Until you’re faded out, faded out of my mind
Breathe and maybe I’ll see
That I’ll make it out, make it out alive

Breathe

Lyrics:
Walking downtown and I’m okay
He’s got it all figured out, that’s what they all say 
Everyone’s lookin at me thinkin that I’m different 
Everyone’s lookin at me thinkin that I’m livin
I don’t really care what they all say

It’s easier said than done 
I got problems with everyone
But it all comes down to you

You are my anxiety
It’s more than a feeling
You were never meant for me
But now I gotta keep it

Walking downtown and I’m okay 
Eyes on me I don’t know what to do so I smile and I wave 
Everyone’s looking like they’re knowing what they’re doing
Everyone’s looking like they know what I’m pursuing 
I’m trying not to give them the time of day

It’s easier said than done
I got problems with everyone 
But it all comes down to you

You are my anxiety
It’s more than a feeling
You were never meant for me
But now I gotta keep it

Our newest single, "Another You". 
Stream/Buy here:

Lyrics:
I don't want you to talk to me
The way you're acting tells me everything
This feels like a recipe
For disaster but it's missing something

I don't want to know what you did
I don't want the pictures in my head
I don't want to hear your words
Controlling my thoughts when I'm in bed
Sticking to me, trying to make me lose my mind
All the time
I think about leaving but it's hard to find

Another you
Another you

You've already rolled the dice
You've been living in paradise for a while now
And I don't know why it feels like
I'm stuck but I don't want to find out

I don't want to know what you did
I don't want the pictures in my head
I don't want to hear your words
Controlling my thoughts when I'm in bed
Sticking to me, trying to make me lose my mind
All the time
I think about leaving but it's hard to find

Another you
Another you

Lyrics:
Did you notice I’ve been lost
Staying up till the break of dawn
Hoping that you’d show
A little warmth, but you know I feel the coldest 
When I’m wrapped around your finger
Did you notice 
That you put me through the ringer

When you said that you needed solace
That I can’t offer you
I found a light in all this
Something to get me through
Now every day is a challenge 
Top down blowing smoke out
It’s not good for my balance 
It sounds great but I’m burnt out

Now the drugs aren’t working
I’ve taken all I can 
But my heart’s still hurting
This can’t be all I am
Cause leaving me so lonely only left me half a man
Now the highs aren’t worth it
The drugs aren’t working

Did you notice 
When I passed you yesterday that I was frozen
Thinking, flashing back - I can’t live in the moment
My heart’s still in the past but we ain’t spoken 
Since you left me broken

When you said that you needed solace
That I can’t offer you
I found a light in all this
Something to get me through
Now every day is a challenge 
Top down blowing smoke out
It’s not good for my balance 
It sounds great but I’m burnt out

Now the drugs aren’t working
I’ve taken all I can 
But my heart’s still hurting
This can’t be all I am
Cause leaving me so lonely only left me half a man
Now the highs aren’t worth it
The drugs aren’t working

Blame

Lyrics:

(verse 1)
Woke up early, you know I’m in a bad mood
In a hurry, to brighten up my attitude
I should call in sick today
I don’t think I feel okay

I’m making coffee, maybe drink it back in bed
Cause my body is symptomatic of my head
Everything is looking gray
Just another kind of yesterday

(pre)
Save yourself
Don’t get caught up with me
Cause emotionally, I’m in despair

(chorus)
Baby I’m messed up, my life is such a wreck
I’m fed up, the chains around my neck
Won’t let up, they’re the only thing keeping my head up
Please believe me 
I’m messed up, my life is such a wreck
I’m fed up, the chains around my neck
Won’t let up, they’re the only thing keeping my head up
Please believe me 

(verse 2)
I’m so embarrassed, every single day’s a war
I can’t stand it, is this all I’m living for
All but love is on my mind
I just wanna sleep tonight

(pre)
Save yourself
Don’t get caught up with me
Cause emotionally, I’m in despair

(chorus)
Baby I’m messed up, my life is such a wreck
I’m fed up, the chains around my neck
Won’t let up, they’re the only thing keeping my head up
Please believe me 
I’m messed up, my life is such a wreck
I’m fed up, the chains around my neck
Won’t let up, they’re the only thing keeping my head up

(outro)
Please don’t tell me that you like that I’m empty inside
Tell me that you like that, baby don’t you lie
You don’t love the way I’m losing my mind
Losing my mind, I’m losing my mind
Tell me that you like that I’m empty inside
Tell me that you like that, baby don’t you lie
You don’t love the way I’m losing my mind

Lyrics:
Caught up in your day, you’ve been acting lazy
Make me wanna stay, that would be amazing
I don’t know if I even gotta say this
But I think that we, we could be the greatest

I’m locked in, take a break from my battles
Working hard to hear your 4 letters
You know I’ll still wait till you’re ready, yeah

Cause I don’t want no hand me down love
Broken from the past
I want a little something new that’ll last
Hand me down love
Leave it in the rear view
Lemme see the real you

Hand me down love
Hand me down, hand me down
Hand me down love 
Hand me down, hand me down
Hand me down love
Hand me down, hand me down
Hand me down, hand me down

Oh I love the way you look with no make up
Every single day, morning when you wake up
You keep telling me you’re so insecure, but
Don’t you know that I, I can reassure you

I’m locked in, take a break from my battles
Working hard to hear your 4 letters
You know I’ll still wait till you’re ready, yeah

Cause I don’t want no hand me down love
Broken from the past
I want a little something new that’ll last
Hand me down love
Leave it in the rear view
Lemme see the real you

Hand me down love
Hand me down, hand me down
Hand me down love 
Hand me down, hand me down
Hand me down love
Hand me down, hand me down
Hand me down, hand me down

Hand Me Down
