Addicted V.2 (prod. Bapop)

DEMO 18 OUTA 52 🏠

this song is about many things about home. how im dealing with it, how I viewed it whilst growing up, and what I think about when I reminisce about home

I learned about bus's whilst making this one. a pivotal moment in time. 



lyrics :

[verse 1]
Less to talk about 
and
Less to relate upon 
Its not an endless fountain
that shit will dry away on 
To quote in quote out “the better things and to all the new faces”
That shit is only better if were in same places

[prechorus]
All my life 
I was searchin
For any reasons to go  
they’re excuses
 
[chorus]
i swear i’m not masochist 
but i think about the pain 
and all those times 
i’ve mastered it
i made through today  

[postchorus]
How come
Youre stressed
you made it there 
Have fun
Its best
Youre really there

[verse 2]
less to runaway from
realities upon us
even in the stories fiction 
I buy books just to pile on 
Just for looks and the vacation and all the 
same people
That shit can only be worse if were stayin static “were stuck in the same place” cuz all 

[prechorus]
All my life 
I was searchin
For any reasons to go  
they’re excuses
 
[chorus]
i swear i’m not masochist 
but i think about the pain 
and all those times 
i’ve mastered it
i made through today  

[postchorus]
How come
Youre stressed
you made it there 
Have fun
Its best
Youre really there

thank you for listening <3 

onto the next!

[VERSE 1]

Hit my head its ironic cuz im not tall not a long fall 
Best believe im full of shit cuz Im not different from you all 

Guess I got a choking kink
cuz internet got me in a choke hold

I am not excited for trash pics 
Cuz That is garbage ill throw out in a bit

I dont like chores 

But its effortless

Choose you dont have a choice   

You cannot just quit. 

Minecraft with the boys

I need some iron nic

Hehe get it? Cuz nevermind

My jokes corny when I think about it

everyone thinks im funny I doubt it   

They laughin at my awkward typa way 

What if that’s me 

You should do that bit boy every day 

What if that’s me

[CHORUS 1]

Confidence followed by insecurities 

Ill embarrass myself just to cringe and please

No one knows what I think of maturity

In the end my heads  the one thats hurting me 

[VERSE 2]

You might think its a coincidence but its ironic 

You should google it

I learned about it when I went to school

Learned thing or two 

Bits and that. 

And that was about it

scored a medal of rides from home and school 
  
Never to fill a tank im sorry to the ones who did that you are cool 

one day take your car 

fill it up 

to the brim 

Im glad for the friendship 

phone randomly always showin past featured pics 

[CHORUS 2]
  
Confidence followed by insecurities 

Ill embarrass myself just to cringe and please

No one knows what I think of maturity

In the end my heads  the one thats hurting me 

[OUTRO]

Confident im insecure
  
Dont have the feet for a pedicure 

No one knows what I think of maturity

In the end my heads  the one thats hurting me  


Confident im insecure
  
Dont have the feet for a pedicure 

No one knows what I think of maturity

In the end my heads  the one thats hurting me

lyrics:

verse 1

Ill be there for you
When you hurt and I heal
Its mended right around your neck 
Fragile pink and steal  

our love
Every day love 
Right above your O N shirt
Its all your heart that I feel

chorus 1

I feel ive been there before
I see your point of view
I hear your brightest or 
The darkest parts of you

I copy taste your thoughts all on  
im not letting go 
I smell makes me hold on
And im not letting go

verse 2

I hope you see through my lens in  
For you throw my only 5 cents in 
Im Second to last like why?
I emptied pockets and I 
I dont have a lot on me, 
My pennys are all I got
think outloud my thoughts with you 
My pennys are all my thoughts 

they are numb
but with you I feel ive I feel I’ve
Ive been there too I feel ive I feel I’ve

chorus 2

I feel ive been there before
I see your point of view
I hear your brightest or 
The darkest parts of you

I copy taste your thoughts all on  
im not letting go 
I smell makes me hold on
And im not letting go

bridge

it is a riddle im solving the sentence

I dont know who that I tell
you is always there when I thrown my 5 cents in 

chorus 3

I feel ive been there before
I see your point of view
I hear your brightest or 
The darkest parts of you

I copy taste your thoughts all on  
im not letting go 
I smell makes me hold on
And im not letting go

DEMO 21 OUTA 52

lyrics:

Saw a line of birds
Above me without care
Didn’t need the words
Sign of the times 
Its spoken to you there

Is it a sign or is it a bird?
Lets just ask
How long were u there?
Chase your desires 
the fact its not me
Its not very
Fair to me just ask 
How long were u there for me honestly 
Its not very fair

Saw a detailed bird 
Thought it would be different
Wasn’t from the rest 
Sign of the times
The past and the current

Is it a sign or is it a bird?
Lets just ask
How long were u there?
Chase your desires 
the fact its not me
Its not very
Fair to me just ask 
How long were u there for me honestly 
Its not very fair

Its just a normal occasion for you
If it was formal
Still can fancy time for two 
Im down for the ride
Dont consider my time
Its familiar 
Follow the signs
Its been happening 
2008
In the moment so confused
Closure woulda been great
Now I got it
Dropped the keys
And she wasn’t afraid 
Had to leave just to party
Had to split up my bases
And it was kinda cool cuz two house didn’t feel fair
Advantage was my mindset but trauma still is buried there

Is it a sign or is it a bird?
Lets just ask
How long were u there?
Chase your desires 
the fact its not me
Its not very
Fair to me just ask 
How long were u there for me honestly 
Its not very fair

Is it a sign or is it a bird?
Chase your desires 
the fact its not me
Not me

dis one is bit vulnerable but how else are u supposed to express yourself?

thank you for listening, love u guys <3

Lyrics:

[VERSE1]
Youre not important (you’re not very important)
Its not so easy (its not so easy)
No need to force it (No need to push it you’ll just force it)
Jus watching replays 
replays

[PRE1]
A different person 
You been on and on
On the search of the next version 
phenomenon 
I bet its worth it 
Cuz youve been gone so long 
Lets find the fun with overalls that are 
finely wrong 

[CHORUS1]
Off the trail
Givin em hell 
Im just as well 
As you can tell
You can just tell me 
Please hold me
Please hold me
You told me
You’d hold me 
Please hold me
Please hold me
You told me
You’d hold me 

[VERSE2]
Just hold your horses
Its not so easy 
You need to store shit 
No watching replays 
No replays 

[BRIDGE]
If you trip if you fall
Youre the one who will hold him
If you trip if you fall
Youre the one who will hold him
If you trip if you fall
Youre the one who will hold him
If you trip if you fall
Youre the one who will hold him

[PRE2]
A different person 
You been on and on
On the search of the next version 
phenomenon 
I bet its worth it 
Cuz youve been gone so long 
Lets find the fun with overalls that are 
finally wrong

[CHORUS2]
Off the trail
Givin em hell 
Im just as well 
As you can tell
You can just tell me 
Please hold me
Please hold me
You told me
You’d hold me 
Please hold me
Please hold me
You told me
You’d hold me 
Please hold me
Please hold me
You told me
You’d hold me 

was way too precious at the end. I just wanted it to be perfect. still not exactly where I want it to be but it still bangs. onto the next
