inside outside upside down

this is basically the outcome of me listening to the d'angelo album for the first time. 

Look at this mess we've made. 
Saw my only so I tried to change for you. 
But you made a fool of me. 
Now on, I'll know when to fight. 
Wish I could take back all the 
times that I thought I wasn't good enough. 
Turns out I was just fine the whole time. 
Don't need no love from another just to hold me up. 
Frankly don't give a damn and I'm out the door.

I got my wallet in my pocket,
got my keys inside my whip.
Ooo I forgot my phone at home 
but I won't need it where I'm goin'.
I might just drive myself away 
and say goodbye to all I've known. 
Ooo I may be on my own, 
but I'll never feel alone. 

Yeah, I've tried 
and I've failed my share. 
Won't let it get me down. 
Yeah, I've lied. 
But the truth’s still there 
when no one else is around. 

Hol’ up hol’ up w-wait up.
I need to say that 
I never meant to portray you as a villain. 
I won't ever say it's all on you 'cause it isn't. 
I took advantage of the some of the things I was given. 
Somethin’ I totally should've noticed but I didn't. 
I regret it every time I see your name 
and see it next to his. 
Wonder if it happened different, 
who would each of us be with? 
Somethin’ with which I have to live. 
Yeah, the weight is off my shoulders. 
I still have it in the corner though, it's hid. 
I keep it to remind me of what I used to be. 
I keep it to remind me what I refuse to be. 
I'm sorry that I loved you before I loved myself. 
I'm sorry that I loved you before I loved myself. 
But this fresh air breathin’, just what I needed. 
I think I'll be alright. 
Hope you're happy where you are. 
I just don't care where you are tonight.

for the girl I just fell for.

I only met her yesterday. 
She said it was nice to meet me. 
And I would've said the same 
if the floor was still underneath me, 
but I left it with that greeting. 
Though fleeting, I would’ve fallen there
if I didn't notice that I responded 
with an awkward stare.
I said, “Hi.” 
But I wanted to say, 
“Your eyes are amazing,
a maze I want to get lost in until I die. 
Like I'm sure the angels join you when you cry, 
and I'm sure they rejoice again when you smile.” 
But I'll save that for another time.
She laughs. And I can't tell if it's at me, 
or 'cause I'm actually making her happy. 
Exactly thirty seconds have past me, 
and I'm already at the flower shop,
thinkin’ if I should take these roses out or not. 
Like I've been thinkin’ way too hard about this.
I don't even need to write a song about this.
I don't wanna always have you on my mind 
but I know deep down inside

I'd walk five hundred miles 
to fall down at your doorstep.
Can't explain the feeling that you give me.
But all I know is I just want some more.

Saw her for the second time. 
She said she hopes that she sees me soon.
And I don't know what that means to you. 
But it seems to me that we've 
got something up both our sleeves 
and I think I catch a glimpse of it 
every time that you leave. 
Both of the times that you left, 
I wanted you to come back. 
And I just hope you feel the same. 
I don't mean to have you all inside my brain. 
But you've really got me chained. 
I even saw you in my dream. 
Tell me have I gone insane 
or am I just in lucky situations? 
Seein’ a girl like you 
two times two days in a row.
If you're ready to ride, 
then I'm rarin’ to go.
But let's take it slow. 
'Cause I've been thinkin’ way too hard about you.
I don't even need to write a song about you.
I don't wanna always have you on my mind 
but I know deep down inside

500 miles [prod. by mr. master]

yes yes y'all.

I'm just sittin’ at the top, 
tryna holler out this one last query clearly.
Give me a thumbs up if you can hear me. Sincerely.
How many more songs is it gonna take 
before these rappers finally pack up and break? 
Let's set a couple things straight.
We might as well have been born in different dimensions.
Really cool flow. Really obscure reference.
Your teachers skip you every time they take attendance.
The government skips you every time we take the census.
Check it. Microphone checker. 
Yeah, I think she's cute but not enough to text her. 
Always in her closet, tryna play dress up. 
Took her to the bathroom just to undress her. 
Sike, I don't think I’d handle the pressure 
but I deserve at least an A for my effort. 
All that I need's my music, my friends, and my money. 
And can't nobody ever take that from me.

Young Squared and I'm goin’ AWOL.
Culture Club. Yeah we're goin’ AWOL.
Said it's all soundin’ like the same song.
And it don't stop until the break of dawn.
They call me Master. I'm goin’ AWOL.
My whole faction is goin’ AWOL.
Y'all all sing the same song.

Give me the microphone back and I'll attack. 
I'll be the last in the rumble. 
The riggedy rap assassin and I'm known for causin’ trouble.
The top shotta when I rock it. 
Flow so in the pocket, you’d’ve thought I was your wallet. 
Southern California for the uninitiated, 
but I'ma move it all around the planet when I make it. 
I'm busy shootin’ porno in the valley though, be patient. 
I bet she’ll call me daddy for a couple easy payments. 
I'm sayin’ 'cause these days 
rappers soundin’ holier-than-thou to me.
I'll take the mumblin’ over rappers talkin’ down to me.
Y'all're flyin’ too close to the sun. 
And I've only just begun 
to wreak havoc on a weak rapper. 
Wack MCs’ll scream after 
seeing God come and step up in the spot tonight. 
Never ever let loose cause I'm always tight. 
Know it's the Matamoney Master out the Ridge, alright.

They call me Master. I'm goin’ AWOL.
My whole faction is goin’ AWOL.
The whole campus is goin’ AWOL.
My whole class gon’ be singin’ this song.
All the fans gon’ be singin’ this song.
And all my fam’s gon’ be singin’ this song.
All the girls gon’ be singin this song.
And all their numbers ‘bout to end up in my phone.
And all my pictures ‘bout to be up in your feed.
And all your likes ‘bout to be up on my tweets.
They don’t test ‘cause they already know.
who’s the best out the rest. In control.
In full effect. Don't stop. Let it go.

awol [prod. by mr. master]

a cover.

For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true

For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once, I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore

For once, I can say, this is mine, you can't take it
As long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me

for once in my life [prod. by mr. master]

LYRICS ON GENIUS

anxiety montage

press start. 

I see you walkin’ with him, 
hand in hand but it’s easy to see
that you’re not holding as tight. 
You say it’s worth it to play 
all the games he creates 
when it’s all just him not treating you right. 
You push it aside. Well, I cannot hide 
how much it hurts to be quiet
and know that you deserve more. 
I may be out of line,
but it’s been on my mind 
so if you’d be so kind
as to at least entertain just the thought 
of letting go, setting free, 
and giving all of you to me. 
I promise I would make everything 
just the way that you want it to be.

We both are so intertwined. 
Focus yours as the prime over mine.
I don’t know where to begin. 
All I see is stars when you’re near 
and my heart’s all I hear. Have no fear.
I’m here to rescue the rest of you from him. 
I won’t leave. You’re all that I need. 
I belong to you. Please, won’t you follow my lead? 
Take the chance of our lives
and don’t ever think twice 
‘bout what we leave behind.
We’ll shoot off into the sunset 
and wave the world goodbye.
Say good night. 
And in the morning, we’ll open our eyes 
and realize that the love that we longed for so long 
was sat right by our side.

perspective.

Old man worn and lost his sight. 
Locked the door and sealed it tight. 
No golden torch. No guiding light. 
No helping hand to hold at night. 
The silence echoes through the halls. 
The eyes have shut on the talking walls. 
Each breath doesn't breathe much anymore. 
The sun doesn't shine as bright as before. 
The monster’s waiting on the other side of the door 
but I drop my cape down and let it fall onto the floor. 

Old man torn and lost his way. 
All he's loved has gone astray. 
No one's close so no one's there. 
No one knows so no one cares. 
These numbers that I used to call. 
These telephone lines don't reach as far when 
all the bloodstains are your own 
and all your faults have been etched in stone. 
With all you've done, you'd be better off alone.
I hang my cape up as I hang up the phone. 

Young man feels he lost his mind. 
No more chances. No more time. 
Stack his cards to fall apart. 
He scrambles to save his shards of heart.
He moves too fast to realize that 
everything then was just fine. 
Sometimes entropy intervenes 
without announcing what it means. 
And all there's to do is stand as the hero you can be.
I tie my cape on and take a step outside for me.

entropy (my cape) [prod. by mr. master]

smooth as a baby's bottom.

You walk around
like you're the only one who knows what's up on this side of town.
I gotta play it cool. Or I might lose you
to some undercover lover tryna get you under covers.
I let far too many slip under my radar.
But I don't see you ownin’ up to you.
We're both just tryna find our own lil path to paradise.
We try so hard.
We try so hard.
Through all this fussin' and fightin’.
You've got a heart made of gold
You're in the sky with the diamonds.
I'm starin’ up thinkin’ that none of it really matters
since you walked away.

I wait so long for you.

You got your high heels.
Watch it, take an eye out.
Wait until you find out what that's really worth.
She wants a nice bag strictly for the price tag.
Never look inside past the shine on that design on her shirt.
Where did you go when I need you?
Now all the walls we built together are see-through.
We've been at this way too long
for us to keep up this facade so strong.
Through all the libel and labels.
We lift the pieces back up to sweep it all of the table.
Baby, I've dealt with this as long as I'm able
but I can't take anymore.

Through all the sufferin' and sorrow.
You want my lovin’ today, you want me gone by tomorrow.
Still after everything, I'd beg steal and borrow
if I could see you again.

brenda [prod. by mr. master]

clairvoyance.

Consider this a time capsule. 
Open it on the night I propose.
See how far down my rabbit hole of a life goes. 
Love.
Speaking as me from the past, 
I can’t wait to live the rest of my life with you as my last. 
I started today. 
I read the first page of a novel 
with plans to make you laugh someday 
pointing out all the plot holes.
I can’t wait for tomorrow. 
I need to hit the mall so I can buy 
a new sweater that you’ll always borrow.
I even dragged myself into the gym 
so when you see me for the first time, I’ll be thin. 
Drinking more water.
Eating more vegetables and acai. 
Might go vegan if it means 
that we both have longer lives, I’m game.
My compass is on a whole other decade. 
I saved us two seats when the Olympics come to LA. 
Just you wait ‘til this music thing blasts off.
That or I’ll have an actual job. 

‘Til then, I’m buildin’. 
Beat down Beelzebub. 
I cut the smoke out. 
I keep myself up. 
I’m plantin’ seeds now. 
See how they swell up. 
So when you finally do come around 
and turn my life upside down, 
I’ll be ready.

I'll be ready
So when you finally do come around 
and turn my life upside down,
I’ll be ready.
I'll be ready.
Already?

To whom it may concern. From a poet. 
This poem is about you and neither of us know it. 
Busy reminiscing about the memories we’ve yet to make.
I already own the shoes I’ll wear on our second date. Set. 
Thoughts of you visiting make me clean my room.
Make my bed so it’s neat when I’m sleeping beside you.
I’m already singin’ all of your other songs. 
I even got a bowl for the dog. 
Picket fence. Front lawn. 
Don’t need to worry then. Don’t need to worry now.
Focus on makin’ a me today that’ll make you proud.
We’re both starin’ at the same night sky, 
prayin’ for stars to align. 
Bring us to the same place at the same time.
Every step I take is one closer to you
and every day I live is new and a chance to improve.
Smiling at our smiles in the pictures we took. 
Only thing is I still need to learn to cook, 

but ‘til then I’m buildin’. 
Beat down Beelzebub. 
And I’ll have alife for myself to appreciate if nobody else does.
There’s a beautiful woman in my future. 
Maybe this song’ll help her get here sooner. 
'Cause I'm ready.

Already?
I'm ready.
So when you finally do come around 
and turn my life upside down,
I'll be ready.
Already?
I'm ready.

ready (already?) [prod. by mr. master]

reminding myself to have fun.

My baby needa shoeshine shoeshine.
I'ma give my baby what she need. 
My little baby needa shoeshine shoeshine. 
Someone shine her shoes for me.

shoeshine [prod. by mr. master]

shoutout jeff bernat.

Why I always sit right next to you.
Why I ask for advice when I know full well what to do.
To hear your voice, see your smile, 
and say it's only there for me.
In the park, plucking petals. 
Guess we'll see.

Why I can’t help reaching for your hand.
And we're both fourteen. 
Girl, we don't need to understand.
Let's take a walk, let's get a bite.
Let's do anything at all.
My handlebars’re waitin’. 
Baby, just make that call.
If you wonder why I love you.

Hey. I actually wanted to ask you something.
I was wondering if… Well, how was your weekend?
I haven't seen you since Friday.
I was thinking about you the whole time since Friday.
What were you doing?

Hey. I kinda wanted to talk to you
about something personal. 
Can we go somewhere private?
No, it's not that serious. 
There's just too many people here.

Hey. Look, I don't know how else to put this
but I just think you're really cool, 
and I think you're really funny,
and I think you're really pretty 
and I don't know what my problem is.

Hey.
Fine. How was yours?
Cool. Bye.

Why I love to give you flowers on a Wednesday,
12 dozen roses at your door.
Or even light some candles when you come over for dinner,
I wouldn’t mind to light a billion more.

Or how I like to wake up and see you with no make up,
I’d still give you a ring the way you are.
Or stay up on the phone late at night when you’re alone,
looking out the window gazing up at stars.

So if you’re wondering why I do the things that I do,
honestly I don’t know what to say.
All these questions and answers, I just like to have her,
every moment every single day.

wonder why [prod. by mr. master]

2018 has been such an amazing year for me musically.

VERSE ONE - CLOUD MAC
-------------------------------------
And don’t cha’ think it’s funny how the world works when the sun shines,
Everybody’s outside, doing shit to pass time.
And making time go faster with a bit of red wine,
Working on their tan lines, til’ it gets to bed time.

The world is populated by a bunch of bullets -
Living to the fullest, no limit to their fullness.
It’s like we’re all diseased but no one wants to cure it,
We eternal tourists, just ready for the pulpit.

And everybody’s screaming life goes fast, as they’re sprinting right on past,
All the reasons that they had, to make this last.
They pushing on ahead, just to meet all the undead,
Spent their life in their bed, and this life they’ll forget.

--------------------------
HOOK - CLOUD MAC
--------------------------
And now it’s hello, fuck a zombie, blowing like some palm leaves -
That fell off some palm trees. we float through life, and death.
Are you worried bout your past?
Well your past doesn’t matter when you’re living like a zombie.

And now it’s hello, fuck a zombie, blowing like some palm leaves -
That fell off some palm trees. we float through life and death.
Are you worried bout your past?
Well your past doesn’t matter when you’re living like a zombie.

--------------------------------
VERSE TWO - CLOUD MAC
--------------------------------
La vie est un jeu, souviens-toi,
Living like a gambler, the master rambler,
Out in the night like a panther, samurai like Samsa,
Kill em’ all commander, destroyin’ the panzers.

It’s like we’re all just craving death, I be sending out my texts,
With my will in the subject. (just in case)
Got a lawyer sleeping under my bed, so that when I kick the bucket.
He’ll be signing all the checks. (who should I make this out to)

We watching other peoples lives, on our TV’s,
Till we be the deceased.
Does that crypt have an en suite? If I’ll be a zombie,
At least let me be clean. (No but it has a balcony)

And all this is dumb, I’d rather come up like sun,
Or anti-gravity fun.
What’s the point in convincing all of the masses, when time it just keeps on passing, if gods real trust he’s laughing.(Muhaha)

-----------------------
HOOK - CLOUD MAC
-----------------------
And now it’s hello, fuck a zombie, blowing like some palm leaves -
That fell off some palm trees, we float through life and death.
Are you worried bout your past?
Well your past doesn’t matter when you living like a zombie.

And now it’s hello, fuck a zombie, blowing like some palm leaves -
That fell off some palm trees, we float through life and death.
Are you worried bout your past?
Well your past doesn’t matter when you living like a zombie.

VERSE THREE - CHRIS WRIGHT
-----------------------------------------
I might care about Kim Kardashian‘s baby,
When Kanye is at my wedding and I got films with Scorsese.
I’m planning for y’all to hate me,
I’m planning for when my bank accounts empty and tour will save me
I’ll always have more to say.

See this catalogue of cookie cutter chemistry matches,
Ain’t appealing, after all got eighty sentences hatching,
Bout being broke, barely sane, bitches similarly bat shit,
Off the jump, we something like the ministry of magic.

And my energy is tragically wasted if I ain’t use it all,
How you go class, pay the bill and just stare at the wall,
Mind blank, wondering when someone gonna make the call,
Teacher say your name but your brain just says fuck it, stall.

I’d rather fucking ball, cash my last check, play a stage like a seminar,
Teach a couple people how to be themselves, be a star,
Buy a couple speakers and a mic, then go play a park,
I ain’t gonna play a part.

Lyrics:
[Mahal Slick]
I said, whatchu mean? 
You don’t wanna fuck with me
I be kicking, spitting fire
Cinderace up on the beat

Counting 1-2-3
Stackin paper, get the cheese
Man the cheddar lookin golden
Giovanna with the dream

Girl, whatchu need?
Said I’m busy, can’t you see
Like the sun up in the summer
Getting hotter with the steam

You don’t want no beef
No lettuce, no green
Unless you bringin out the jane
Call me spidey with the swing

Playing games, finna switch it up like click click (boom)
Come along, getting high up in the spaceship (zoom)
Whatchu want? Got the sweets 
Got the ice, got the freeze
Make it float, like a peach, we be runnin outta room

You said we have to turn the lights off, aye
She going crazy like oh my god, aye
Oh, shawty getting so delighted, aye 
Oh wow, call me lighting getting ready for the race

I said whatchu mean? yeah
I said whatchu mean? yeah
I said whatchu mean? yeah
I said, I said, I said whatchu mean?

[Miles Powers]
Oo she say she need it, I just think you want it darling
Ride that M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I to New Orleans, oh my
Meet me up in Florence, my whip proficiently foreign
Don't feed the fish if they more than four feet long to begin with

I'm goin’ nautical with it, slick shit I gotta go get it, yea
And I don't even wan’ be famous, I just wan’ my poems ingrained in
Brains of writers, lyricists, aspiring or retiring
Got ambition like nutrition fanatics have them vitamins

Tidal waves on an island I been wavy lately
I'm giving hope out, giving hope out like my baby gave me
I'll give a verse out, give a verse out if you pay me maybe
Unless you Mahal I’ma look off like a pass to AD, from LBJ

The hell you sayin boy, you just a baby boy, put some work in
Do some lurkin’ ‘fore you spout off ‘cause you may annoy
Some people you don't want to, on to 2020 now
Write about the life you live, ain't all about the money child
YEE
I said YEE
I said what, you, MEAN
I said what you mean, what you mean

[CLOUD MAC]

And what's the point in being just like you?
And what's the point in doing nothing new?
And what's the point in just seeing the same view, same view, same view, same view.

And what's the point in no troubles at all?
Would that just get rid of the opposite of  
Relax, you've had this coming for a while now.
Two sides of one story better hope that you find out.

And I've been cool.
Everybody coming to me with advice like  
"Man, you alright, like put you in the spotlight, make sure you are polite"
Hit you with that wolf bite

Rhymes so hot they make you melt, yeah
I told my moms I'd be a star, so she beat me with Orion's Belt, yeah
I'm fresh like Bel Air, the doctor's in  
Operate like I am Jay Squared, and bitch I'm faded.

And what's the point in being just like you?
And what's the point in doing nothing new?
And what's the point in just seeing the same view, same view, same view, same view.

And what's the point in no troubles at all?
Would that just get rid of the opposite of  
Relax, you've had this coming for a while now.
Two sides of one story better hope that you find out.

And what's the point in being just like you?
And what's the point in doing nothing new?
And what's the point in just seeing the same view, same view, same view, same view.

And I've been   rude.
Choose your own adventure but I never let you choose.
Like some shitty grills that never fit the fucking tooth,
I'm coming for the top, they never gonna' stop this dude, never gonna' stop this groove.

Never miss a beat, like my name is Chris Brown, yeah,
Never gonna' stop, till' I run this whole town, yeah.
A demon when I eat, I ain't stopping at your heart  
Yeah you know I'm going far, yeah you know I'm going far.

And what's the point in being just like you?
And what's the point in doing nothing new?
And what's the point in just seeing the same view, same view, same view, same view.

And what's the point in no troubles at all?
Would that just get rid of the opposite of  
Relax, you've had this coming for a while now.
Two sides of one story better hope that you find out.

And what's the point in being just like you?
And what's the point in doing nothing new?
And what's the point in just seeing the same view, same view, same view, same view.

[THIAGO]

Yeah, whats the point huh?
Really got it in your head that you never had a choice huh?
Yeah, la vida loca -
Why you schooling with the fish when the world is your oyster?

Don't say I didn't tell ya, tell ya,
Feel it, get it hot, went in cold blood, cold blood
Think you at the top with that same view, same view
Look around, nobody can save you, save who?
