lyrics:

I’ve been at the party and i’m sitting on the sidelines
Wondering if i should dance when i know the one that’s mine
Never has her time to shine i wish that i was by her side
Cuz the awkwardness around this place is killing me all up inside
Quarantine always having me wanting to go outside
When i finally do i realize i would just wanna fly
To a whole different state so i can meet with my mates
Hoping that they won’t hate when i’m playing other shows
Knowing that these other hoes would literally kill me

i wish they would know i changed directions of feelings
and that i took the time to just continue this healing
i pray to stay alive with this music i'm kneeling
i'm in my bed and i stare at ceiling
with this imaginary sword pretend that i'm wielding
shield above me so you know who you're dealing with 
this power these thoughts when i be killing it

They could Murder me burn me yeah
I was here suffering 
Oh no, it’s the weirdo Lavi
Two shows under his belt
Headphones on where does he go

Story to be told, hidden in my notes
Wrote a tale, never tell
In the dark, not alone
Accompanied by many
Who would’ve known
One brain, three heads
Guess that’s the way it goes
When you’re with blank walls

I don’t want a bankroll
I just wanted you to call
My thoughts are never home
Knocking, not a single soul 
Deep in thought
Walking sideways, comin hot 
Gone before the needle drop
Maybe one day I’ll stop, fuck

2014 couldn’t see past the twenty’s
Long sleepless nights
On a pointless drive, wasted nothing
I’m staying in side 
All these frequencies got me sliding
Fuck you, and these text I’m ignoring

Lyrics:
It's been years since I've been online
And I've met digitally like all the time
And yet people still be in decline
Taking things wrong, and take what is mine
No one understands, should I be alive
Negativity I wanna go offline
Need comfort like the smell of pine
Anything making me feel satisfied

Never really wanna be on my own
But everyone's just got me out the zone
The only real ones around you offer you to smoke
And you try to stay clean they treat you like a joke like
This music game isn't for me I don't fit within my genres
I'm struggling u taking pain away with marijuana
Y'all cope with your pain bitch I never do
But apparently to speak out feelings guess I'm rude
Fuck you
You know It's true (unfortunately)

They always wanna link and they always wanna party
But I'm the guy that hangs in the back of the lobby
Introvert and shy and I'm always saying sorry
My schedule's just been way too sloppy

My mind's a printer and it makes too many copies
It's running out of ink but it doesn't wanna stop me
Too big of a crowd will just make me stop talking
I stay on mute when they all try to call me

I'm lucky that they even stay within my following
I try to keep myself from showing out my sorrowing
Your words don't come out, sitting there swallowing
Staring at the door waiting feeling like it's Halloween

Hope my music friends can always keep staying patient
I still wanna send them songs for collaboration
But I try to perfect what I want, lose motivation
And when others ask for help I know I'm losing concentration

From my own work
Bones hurt from hardly getting out
Feeling like the outdoor life is just going out of bounds
Feel like there's nothing left for me to do within this town
My most reliable venue to play shows just shut down like

My happiness is best when I put on a performance
Hope I can do it more and continue recording
Surprised writing this much didn't get too boring
Lo-fi vox too raw feeling like Gordon Ramsay

It would come in handy
To always have a plan b
But I never think through til it's gone
So I always end up putting all my thoughts within a song
But i'm wondering if expressing myself is the wrong thing to do

When there's always one against me
Friends turn into a frenzy
The way they always tempt me
Once a girl be breaking up she like
Can I give you head please?
I'll never commute to having her within my bedsheets because
If she left him I would wonder if she left me

Within the future
I'm too scared to progress
When I don't know the process
If she's a bitch or she's a goddess
Knowing it could always get out of pocket

No one knows what I've been through
To my closest wish that you could be in my shoes
Hope eventually u stop overreacting
Wasting hours in a day it's too distracting
This world is turning reality to robots
I was born in the wrong generation
It feels too fake..

reality to robots (bluewolf)

@joshiguess

Yeah you know it's joshiguess
And we getting to this mess yeah

Bitch I'm stepping on the stage new kicks
Ask what I got on today new drip
Little bitch want a kiss on her lips
You know I would but I don't wanna get sick
Half these artists ain't shit without nic
In a made up world fan-fic
I asked her what she played said switch 
So I played her all night for the wins

Bitch want my dick yeah? they twins
But you know I keep the wood locked like I'm Flynt
Asking Josh what the fuck is your rizz?
Said bitch, that's none of your buis'

She gon give me face in this faceless era
But she ain't gonna date I'm gon make this dare huh
Don't come to my shows if u gonna sit and stare up
Least bump your head so you show some care hu-un

And I be on the ru-u-un
Bitch I do this shit for fu-u-un
Often go try-hard but I did all these takes in one (yeah)


I do this shit to fulfill what I never had
Only company the last few years my dad
If someone from this city say they like me then they cap
But when I finna blow up they gon' ask me for the bag
Yeah they gon ask me for the racks
Yeah they gon ask me for the cash
Baby what's your cashapp?
Cus I kinda wanna tap
Oh it's free well i'm glad
Yeah you a one night stand
And I'm a one man band
So you know that I got more plans

She gon give me face in this faceless era
But she ain't gonna date I'm gon make this dare huh
Don't come to my shows if u gonna sit and stare up
Least bump your head so you show some care hu-un

And I be on the ru-u-un
Bitch I do this shit for fu-u-un
Often go try-hard but I did all these takes in one (yeah)

joshiguess - faceless era (wayza) [MOST REJECTED EXCLUSIVE]

News flash! you're all on the papers
Doesn't matter when all of em shredded by our own nature
And everyone's confused on what they should major in
Our brains have been shriveled and put into paper thin

Take your time and take your size! it's ticking
The longer we take the more that circle turns to inches
And then it goes to centimeters, millimeters, digits
Then we just confused on where to start from the beginning

Every time they boost our ego we're like damn I am winning
It's all fun and games until somebody catches you slipping
You think they real ones until our conscious starts to kick in
They only here once the home run on the team started to hit in

And within my own community I never feel I fit in
That's why switching genres often has always been my decision
It allows me to be creative, and stay with my own commitment
Don't let anybody tell you can't do it without equipment like

You can always do something long as you got a vision
It just takes a lot of trial error lot of repetition
And I used to be nothing now look at my position
My journey of my life, I can call it expedition

You can always do something long as you got a vision
It just takes a lot of trial error lot of repetition
And I used to be nothing now look at my position
This my journey of my life, I can call it expedition

Got a backpack and it's full of notes
Not from books, just from hooks for future recordings
USA yeah I'm always saying good morning
Risking everything like every sign has a warning
Question, Would you ever do the same if there's a reward?
Or would you give up on it quickly cause you're getting too bored?
I've been in both mindsets, yeah it feels like a hoard
But I'd rather move it forward, so I keep going toward this

Fantasy that I got inside my head
Reality just hanging on by a thread
And i wrote this song instead of going to bed
Man this rap shit kinda fun maybe i'll do it again

Start a tornado by myself like a Tasmanian devil
Yeah my roads never sturdy its always put in to pebbles
And I like it that way cus I don't want it to be straight
I want people seeing little things and learn how to behave

She pull me closer and told me not to believe it
I told her I heard the word but I needed my eyes to see it
I'm seeing things in my dreams that i never thought i'd be seeing
And seeing those things again start to wonder if it's repeated like

I think about her a lot but i'm insecure of her feelings
I wonder if she's okay like I wonder if i'm the villain
I told her that i'm the problem i'm guessing she don't believe it
I'm telling her i'm her medicine now she say she don't need it like

Maybe I need to sleep but i'm still stuck in my head
The way the pen can hit this pad but not get up from my bed
See all my work and dedication holding on from a thread
I'm holding on with all my might but i'll let go if you said

Not in my feelings i'm just different that's a whole different art
How could you judge me on my music if you not taking part?
How could you hurt me if you never seen me falling apart?
Y'all steady chasing y'all dreams but I like to follow the heart

I'm on a different type of ride, I watch the wave and watch the tide
With the picture on my mind i'm saying "Krillin get your vision straight!"
I see the difference in the time it's cus I couldn't press rewind
Without a vision in my life i'm saying work is better fit for you

No we not the same, get out of my lane
I hate when people talk shit
They never live up to their expectations
So why the fuck you say what you say in the first place?
Cus you never fucking lived it
I got a life I got a purpose
While your shit's just fucking worthless
Your music is garbage throw that shit in the trash
Never coming back yeah make a track
Subtract flows like math
I'm cracked at this music shit with this autotune
I can pop off any day I want to

Don't need love for me I just need the guidance
Look at me straight into my eyelids
So I know that you're being real
Don't cut a deal just to cut me off
I'd do it myself but I'm not a shop
To be honest I don't want this to flop
Every time that you see me drop and
Every time that you speak I swear that I 
Just wanna feel love deep down, not me frown
In my bedroom, you in bed too
Facing away so you don't have to
See me in pain or see me in vain
Don't want you to overthink, but I get if you sink
Back way down to your emotions 
Like a shipwreck inside of the ocean
Never want to cause commotion so I drank the potion

I drank the potion
She told me to pick my poison
It's life or death, hold you to the end
And I ain't riding trends, yeah I just genre bend
Huddled in a tent with a ten out of ten
And I won't forget all the time we spent
(yeah, oh-oh-oh-oh)
And yeah it's hard to say goodbye
And now im' sitting here wondering why
That you never call me

Falling in love is like a dart 
you either hit the mark or miss it outright
Will I ego death like quad or will I deflate 
Like I'm brakence either way 
I'll feel like a (deep fake) deep fake of myself
Maybe a la carte & a second dish for the entree ya

I don't want you to fade out
Like it's the next day
I just wanna help
JUST WANNA HELP
Don't you let this be the end
Because I wanna see your face again (see your face again)
Ice filled cracks in your heart will mend
Just know you're not alone in the world 
There is someone you can call a friend
Someone you can call a friend

spotify

Sometimes you gotta get a little bit of anger out
Rage and then push everything into large amounts
Yo bitch asked me what the fuck is my body count?
I said I ain't been around but got a lot of whereabouts

Rolling up dough like pizza
Pumping out songs fast like a cheetah
I be rocking black leather cus ya know fuck peta
And your bitch acting like she incognita
But she kinda bonita
See how much better I treat her
I'm the one that get the heat up
No Miami
Bitch I aint doing this shit for the grammies 
Staged ass award show matter fact hope they ban me
I know the industry they cannot stand me
They need to fix this shit call Handy Manny
Got the tools in the chest, like when she call me daddy
Except when its her chest, we continue to panties uh
That's a lil explicit and I need a plan b
And it's a lil too early to start a family
Need to go piece by piece like its reeses
I remember back in school at recess
Rap battles would start all in the streets there 
I never did it cus im quite unique there
Now im up more than people can believe and
I be doing shows like city after city 
Doesn't matter if you treat me shitty
I'm still coming back whether not you with me
So why not get on the wave right now you ain't busy
So go ahead get up and chant with me
Just chant with me just chant with me just chant with me

It's JoshIGuess
Never know quite what's next

And look he does a show once again
Once again

It's JoshIGuess
Never know quite what's next
He be switching genres right and left
And look he does a show once again
Once again

THEME SONG [RVYMVND]

Me and you are in the boat I feel like ariel
Let's get married and yo, I won't have you feeling low
You won't wanna say no
So let's go on this stroll and let's follow the scroll

It's a habit to wanna get away from this planet
And that's just how it feels with you
It's true, as I follow this map of adventure
It's a pleasure to be with you and I love you it's a great honor

I won't ever bother if you ever need some space
But every time I'm not near you my heart really races
I need to take it to a whole different pace bitch
In this book of chapters you're a whole different page with
Hearts all around your everlasting name with me you see?
I want this forever do I wanna end it? Never
I just want you in my sweater
Just so that you remember that I'm always there with you

I won't lose again this is such a promise to be honest
I really think that it's gonna work this time
You won't leave me behind like the rest
I'd rather have em out my mind I wish I could forget

But at least I'll have comfort on your chest
Even on the days we feel like we're a mess I guess
Guess I'm no longer the joshiguess I was gonna be you see
But I believe this change was necessary let me carry you out

To a whole different place and let's bury them out
The thoughts that we had before that now we can ignore
The way we were to the way we are
Let's go pretty far matter fact let's go to mars
We can probably make friends with the aliens

Oh god this writing's getting miscellaneous
But that's ok just as long as you're dating bitch
I'll stay happy even when we're both decaying and
And I love you very much and I hope that I can really trust
That nothing bad will happen again, amen

Ariel (Sir Leo)

heart locked chain, no longer feel the pain, sweet like candy cane, i hopped inside this train, of the memories, of the enemies, and blasted it off into 
pieces, been spending money on me since i've been buying these leases, dropped so hard that my breathe cant continue
breathing still never understood why im nervous
in speeches, but when i be performing the people are speechless, calm down, turn around, i cannot just make a sound, it will be embarassing, but who cares just
embarass me, it gives me attention right, is it good or bad to have a mindset just like that or should i just react to what is coming to me

sorcery i craft, how do i relapse, i cannot relax, with this loudness in the feedback, feed that to my soul, so i won't feel alone, even if its half
and half, just not tokyo ghoul, type fashion, action, back into this fraction, habits habits, need to stop interaction, settle with this adaption to life,
but im sitting here just wasting time

wasting my time (sir leo)
