"W.o.W" (Feat Supa Bwe)

Starting this past fall, I had the pleasure of sitting in on "Wreckshop", a Hip Hop writing class run by my friend Defcee out of YCA (Young Chicago Authors), the epicenter of underground hip-hop music locally. Week in and week out, I’ve been impressed with the enthusiasm and talent level of the students. I especially appreciated working with Rasaan Khalil, a young man who impressed me with his thoughtful lyricism and voice. It was a no brainer that we should work and I'm very glad we could link and create, “Think Twice” (Produced by Montana Macks).

Lyrics:
I miss the girl that I love
I miss the world that I loved too
All of those diamonds in the rough
And all those people that I knew
It just seems like we're giving up
Why? 
I can't rightly say
Some wild things been happening
We can't get on the same page

(Hook)
Girl you were my everything
You were my everything
But now you don't feel the same
Nah, you don't feel the same
Girl you were my everything
You were my everything
But now you don't feel the same
Nah, you don't feel the same

She says she's ready for a change
Hate to admit but I agree
We just ain't been acting our age
What will this fighting achieve?
You know we used to be the wave
I used to know what made you smile
Now all we do is walk away
I guess I'll see you in awhile

(Hook)
Girl you were my everything
You were my everything
But now you don't feel the same
Nah, you don't feel the same
Girl you were my everything
You were my everything
But now you don't feel the same
Nah, you don't feel the same

I hate the thought of us falling apart
But now I feel like there's no other options
You had my head and you had my heart
But now when you're close I proceed with caution
I love the thought of us being in love
But it feels like the love's turning rotten
You had my head and you had my heart
But now when you're close... you're close

(Hook)
Girl you were my everything
You were my everything
But now you don't feel the same
Nah, you don't feel the same
Girl you were my everything
You were my everything
But now you don't feel the same
Nah, you don't feel the same

Girl you were my everything, you were my everything
You were my everything, yeah
Girl you were my everything, you were my everything
You were my everything, yeah

Lyrics:

I wasn’t thinking about next year or even next week
Moving by myself
No clue how happy we’d be
Tryna give you my time, treat you right
A life more complete
No clue how happy we’d be

Here goes,
Ready or not
Let’s see what I can see
Your finger reaches on out
Pulling me away
I’ll try to behave right
Say not just the right things
But what I’m feeling
What I’m feeling
I usually don’t fall quick 
At least not for portraits
Looks can be bought
But not your love, not your love

I wasn’t thinking about next year or even next week
Moving by myself
No clue how happy we’d be
Tryna give you my time, treat you right
A life more complete
No clue how happy we’d be

precious 
you left me feeling breathless 
began to worry but my heart was on the guest list 
the freshness that you exude in any room puts the blinders on my eyes 
only focal point is you 
is it too soon I haven't a clue 
timeing doesn't matter when the heart goes pitter-patter 
yo im open and braggadocious 
your type of Love just got me boasting Subtle and so contagious supportive ain't even famous yet 
you placed your bets already on a brothers odds 
the type of Faith some reserved strictly for the gods 
I do applaud the way you self-love with some the split 
teaching me that value 
pretty penny with the hole in it 
certainly Your Love ain't free 
got to give to receive 
your the apple im the seed 
got to work for the leaves with the Earth and the trees 
growing naturally
In the sun
Its our love
Love 
Love

Lyrics:

7 foot seven
Red ass eyes
Some say he screeches
Some say he's silent 
Every 8 days
It's he feeding cycle
might not let you run if he finds you 
If I see him I would fake that I'm dead
Rob me of my soul
Could care about my bread
No use trying to use these legs 
He's over the hill, hiding behind a hedge
He's not Hollywood
Though Hollywood framed him
Never was a franchise like Freddie + Jason
No known affiliations with the masons
Has no patron, has no matron
For this urban legend you gotta be patient 
Look there!
Up in sky 
What a surprise 
A being whose existence may spell our doom
Moth man, moth man
Moth man, moth man

(Forest Interlude)

See some tough days coming
try to take it in stride
Been a high tide roller
Bought the ticket took the ride
To be the change I wanna 
See in this world
Need to try a new way
Of seeing myself like the others do
That's a big
No can do 
Tried a few times
A few times times two
Time stands still bring you back to the soup
That's a big now
But what if I do
What I done different
What's left to lose 
The Line gets crossed then it's curtains too soon

If I’d had it my way
I’d be half way across the globe
Living off the road
Making friends everywhere I go
But you know plans
They never go as you want
Stuck inside my woes
Stuck inside my haunts

Ain’t nothing doing
But
Ain’t nothing better
Easy as we do it
I’m yours
Especally in the winter
Hiding out together  
Ain’t nothing better
I’m whole

No coin to toss
Won’t chance my love to games
No coin to toss
Won’t chance my love to games

If I’d had it my way
I’d be way too removed
From all the things I love
All the friends who saved my soul
Cause you know plans
They never go as you want
Can save you from a disaster
And put love into my heart

Ain’t nothing doing
But
Ain’t nothing better
Easy as we do it
I’m yours
Especally in the winter
Hiding out together  
Ain’t nothing better
I’m whole

No coin to toss
Won’t chance my love to games
No coin to toss
Won’t chance my love to games
No coin to toss
Won’t chance my love to games
No coin to toss
Won’t chance my love to games

Lyrics:
Getting closer by the moment lady
In your eyes I see the future
All the days are you in the open
Magic and wonderful
Hold me closer for a moment lady
Hope this is my only future
All the days are sun kissed
So long clouds and storms

Flow, flow
I slow down
Overcoats
Got chilly on the coast
Flow, flow
I slow down
Overcoats
Got chilly on the coast

Could it be that stars were crossed
Maybe, maybe
Who knew you’d be the one
To save me, save me

Flow, flow
I slow down
Overcoats
Got chilly on the coast
Flow, flow
I slow down
Overcoats
Got chilly on the coast
Overcoats
Got chilly on the coast

Overcoats (Prod by The O'My's)
