(Prod. Ocean)

LYRICS:

Chorus:
I don’t even know if you’re listening to me
But I don’t need to know who you got replacing me
(It don’t matter, it don’t matter)
So why you calling me if you told me to move on?
And why you calling me when you know I’m moving on?
(it don’t matter, it don’t matter)

Verse:
Baby I know it’s not easy
Thinking of myself so I can see
Doing me makes it easy
Had to show myself so I can see
(It don’t matter, It don’t matter)
Baby I know that you’re upset
Every single night you see sunsets
Making promises I should’ve kept
Apologies you won’t accept
(It don’t matter, It don’t matter)

Pre-Chorus:
But I know that life goes on
and I know we’re drifting off
You know I’m moving on
Can’t pick up where we left off
(No, no)

[Chorus]

[Pre-Chorus]

It Don’t Matter

(Prod. JayMode)

LYRICS:

Chorus:
You like to play with my heart
You like to play with my mind
Something I can't be a part
Oh no I don't got the time
And even though this is hard
The choice is your's and it's mine
I think we're better apart
So don't try changing my mind

Verse:
No don't try changing my mind
Cause you'd be wasting your time
I've spent way too much of mine
Wishing that you were still mine
And honestly I can see
Everything we used to be
And how it fell to our feet
How it used to ruin me
I keep a hold of my thoughts
And letting go if they rot
Is it you or is it not?
It's way too dark for a shot
But Imma shoot anyway
Hoping the pain goes away
and if I miss it today
just know it's not here to stay
So can we give it a rest?
My heart's beating out my chest
and if you're feeling upset
I'm wishing you all the best

[Chorus]

Verse:
So if I hear my phone ring
and see your name on the screen
Just know that I'll press the green
and always be listening
Cause at the end of the day
We're all just finding our way
You've helped me get to today
We all just grieve our own ways
Oh all I think of is you
But not the way I used to
I don't know what else to do
I can't stay hung up on you

[Chorus x2]

Don’t Try

(Prod. JayMode)

LYRICS:

Verse:
Waiting
for the ice to melt
Waiting
to feel the way you felt
Gripping to the sheets so they're coming off the bed
Crawling up to me until you're giving me some --
We could barely breathe but never felt more alive
I promise it means nothing for the Word of the Wise

Chorus:
Word of the Wise
She'll lead you to your demise
So get out and run while you can
Word of the Wise
Even the tears in her eyes
only means she's got you where she wants you
So get out (Now get out)
While you can (While you can)

Verse:
Holding
onto the edge
Holding
tight to my chest, undressed
Pressed against the wall feel the breath on your skin
If you start to fall, there's no holding it in
We could barely breathe but never felt more alive
I promise it means nothing for the Word of the Wise

[Chorus]

Word of the Wise

(Prod. Pacific)

LYRICS:

Verse:
I feel your eyes on me
But when I look you turn away so swiftly
Got me thinking if it’s something about me
Or is it something no one else can see?

Pre-Chorus:
It feels like I know you
But we’ve never met
Where do I know you
if we haven’t met yet?
Or have we?

Chorus:
I know this sounds crazy
but I just want you baby
Will you come home to me tonight?
I can’t fight this feeling
You can’t blame me for believing
You don’t ever have to think twice
You’re mine

Verse:
I want to feel the rush
And I feel it with every touch
The constant motion
the hundreds of emotions
yeah I’m swimming in this ocean with you

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Bridge:
And that’s my promise
If you take a chance on us
I’ll swim inside this ocean for two, I’ll swim for you
(But like you really need me to)

[Chorus]

(Written by Javon Hinton)

You’re Mine

(Prod. Fantom)

LYRICS

Chorus:
I, I think I understand
When all of this is done
then where will you and I stand?
You, you reach out for my hand
But should I be the one
to close off everything and

Go on, say so long, my love (x2)

Verse:
Take a closer look and maybe you will find
Everything you're searching for was in your mind
I can't hold on any longer, not this time
I keep moving forward but feel left behind

Pre-Chorus:
Running from the darkest days I used to roam
Hiding underneath the voices all alone
Egotistical feelings I used to own
Trying to escape but I can't leave my home

[Chorus]

Verse:
My biggest fear is coming true
I can't just let go of you
Questioning, what should I do?
Don't think I can see this through

But you
Don't have it in you
To do it either
(Looking in the mirror and I-)
Oh you
Don't have it in you
Why don't you leave her?

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Outro:
Oh go on, say so long, my love (x2)

So Long

Hold Up

The Last Hang Up

Get It Right

Prod. eeryskies

LYRICS:

No, my life will never be expendable
Redefining what we deem acceptable
We need justice nothing else is sensible
We remember, pain is unforgettable

In a country divided
A system meant for safety becomes heavily one-sided
And if the pace is kept we soon see death so absent-minded
Maybe the world would be more equal if we all were color-blinded
Freedom of praise but if you praise Profit Muhammad
They stop you at your gate assumingly assume you’re bombing
Beneath the surface every Faith has got something in common
I pray that God’s Country isn’t Godforsaken, Amen
(In Shaa Allah)
I think of children of color
Like my cousins who I love more like my sisters and brother
Will they live the life they love while supporting one another
Will the world that they grow up in be accepting of others
Look
And Spanish-speaking young Hispanics
The other kids uncomfortable cause they don’t understand it
They claim that immigrants are ruining our greatest land but
Your prejudice and racism causes way more damage

I can’t breathe
Where’s the human decency?
America is suffocating me with its knee
I can’t breathe
I’m running out of steam
America is chasing me to shoot me on the street
I can’t breathe
What a scary place to be
When coming home at night isn’t always guaranteed
I can’t breathe
Hatred flooding in the streets
We’re drowning in the poison everyone in disbelief
I can’t breathe

And another thing to know
The difference is in experiences
and listening’s how to grow
My Mama raised on privileged snow
My Dad was slinging all this dope
This country dealing hands slipped two white Queens to row three Kings in boats
Damn
Metaphorically speaking
America’s just a shipwreck and it’s gradually sinking
People of color lay in bed at night unsettled and unblinking
I wish racial equality was more than wishful thinking
You can acknowledge it or not
And if you do then use the voice you’re given by your God
We stand for something greater and each other’s all we got
Remember George Floyd while we running with Ahmaud
In Ferguson our hands raised high while we walk (Brown)
We pray for Garner’s mother keeping Eric in our thoughts
We walk instead of drive to remember Walter Scott
Wearing hoodies on the way to 7-Eleven down the block (Trayvon)
He was only seventeen
Skittles and Arizona Tea
Saying prayers for the Martin's
And some for the Arbery's
He was only exercising
Now we exercise our rights
Uphill battle to the mountaintop
And gracefully we fight
Not with violence and defiance, but be peacefully defiant
with collected voices tireless, and we recognize His guidance
Resist from starting riots, we’re not threatened hearing sirens
With a message so loud, there’s no way we can be silenced

I can’t breathe
Where’s the human decency?
America is suffocating me with its knee
I can’t breathe
I’m running out of steam
America is chasing me to shoot me on the street
I can’t breathe
What a scary place to be
When coming home at night isn’t always guaranteed
I can’t breathe
Hatred flooding in the streets
We’re drowning in the poison everyone in disbelief
I can’t breathe

No, my life will never be expendable
Redefining what we deem acceptable
We need justice nothing else is sensible
We remember, pain is unforgettable
