ALRIGHT

Verse
A year ago last may
My world came crashing down
When you took off on that plane
A week before our daughter’s 1st birthday
You said things were too hard
Though you refused to get a job
Said you’re no longer in love
But I refused to just give up

Pre Hook
But you left me in the fire
So now I’m startin over
Everything is lookin brighter
Like Sunshine on the water

Hook
Its gonna be (Alright)
I know I’m gonna be (Alright)
I know you’re gonna be (Alright)
We’re gonna make it, 
We’re gonna make it, 
Its gonna be (Alright)
I know I’m gonna be (Alright)
I know you’re gonna be (Alright)
We’re gonna make it, 
We’re gonna make it
Its gonna be All-All-All-All-All Alright
Its gonna be All-All-All-All-All Alright

Verse
Now lets talk about music
Even when my blood dries up a melody is flowin through me
I can’t help it
Even if the energy invested aint healthy
12 years can be so hard
When everyone you help becomes a star
And suddenly they don’t know who you are
I believed in them when they didn’t believe in themselves

Pre Hook
I gained Success and Popularity 
I need to feel it monetarily
Struggling is humbling in time I know I’ll be
Hook

Bridge
I know. I might seem bitter, but I’m so much better Cuz
What don’t kill you, you know the rest it’s obvious 
I’m still standing
If I take a million falls
Just know I’ve been through it all
I’m indestructible 
I’m gonna be

Alright

Eulogy

The trials of Job come into all of our lives
We’ve all been there in times when we felt we could not go on
But this too shall pass
Pain is like rain, if you stay in it too long you will be soaked.
Get up young brother
Rise up
Open the windows, let the sunshine in, Let the hope flow, move on
Be strong
Strong enough to let go of what’s not working
Strong enough to carry your own coffin
The coffin of what must be let go
Have a Funeral

SADISTIC

Verse
I’m fighting what I wanna do
But I gotta admit I like it
She’s forbidden fruit
I’m Sampson and she’s Delilah
She knows she’s my weakness 
And I know that I shouldn’t touch
Cause gets off from my suffering
It’s like I’m in a cult

Pre Hook
As she moans
I wanna feed her appetite
Her legs wrapped around me tight
I wanna give in but I know
This is wrong
So why does is it feel so right?
My conscience tries to fight
The more I resist passion grows

Hook
She’s so Sadistic
She’s so sadistic
She’s so sadistic 
She’s so sadistic

Verse 2
I’m fighting but it feels so right
Cause S&M aint like me
Her body is my vice
She’s a Jezebel but I like it
Am I being held captive?
Cause I’m serving like slave
Just to please the master
But I don’t want to escape

Bridge
Could it be I’m captivated, Cause I know you’re no good for me?
Even though I’m hesitant, I can’t resist cause there’s a need
I hate that you made me so weak But then I love the way you’re so controlling

Sadistic

Frontline (Lyrics)

(Verse)

Bang, Bang They shoot you down fore they say freeze

No Tarantino Film, This here's Reality

They choke us out in the street

With no warning, no regard for the lives that they thief

Who’s gonna save us from the police??

Not neighborhood watch, they’re just as crooked as cops!!

(Pre Hook)

We’re living World War 3

We’re all just moving targets

In the land of the free 

Why is justice disregarded?

When we got out hands up

They still go and gun us down 

If we didn’t need you then, Well Lord we need you now

(Hook)

We're on the frontline 

The battlefield’s now in our backyard 

We need our armor on to stop the enemy

We're on the frontline 

(Verse 2)

The Sirens are so loud, every where we see

The signs of the time, While History Repeats 

We’re soldiers fighting for peace

Far from Gaza, Iran, Iraq and the Middle East

Who’s gonna save us from the police

Not neighborhood watch, they’re just as crooked as cops

(Pre Hook)

We’re living World War 3

We’re all just moving targets

In the land of the free 

Why is justice disregarded?

When we got out hands up

They still go and gun us down 

If we didn’t need you then, Well Lord we need you now

(Hook)

We're on the frontline 

The battlefield’s now in our backyard 

We need our armor on to stop the enemy

We're on the frontline 

(Bridge)

Politicians warring while our country’s fallin’

Now’s the time to get down on your knees

What’s the sense of fighting for our rights??

If all they are is compromised??

Send us a solution please, cause we’re living

(Pre Hook)

We’re living World War 3

We’re all just moving targets

In the land of the free 

Why is justice disregarded?

When we got out hands up

They still go and gun us down 

If we didn’t need you then, Well Lord we need you now

(Hook)

We're on the frontline 

The battlefield’s now in our backyard 

We need our armor on to stop the enemy

We're on the frontline 

The battlefield’s now in our backyard 

We need our armor on to stop the enemy

We're on the frontline
