KINTSUGI

RiverKinn
"Missfortune"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
Misfortune
Feeling like I wasn't that important
I let the paranoia run its course and hopefully pass
I ain't really tryna force it
Misgiven
I recognize it wasn't my decision
I really need to get ahold of my addictions
Pour out the glass
Tryna better my position
Think of my condition
Changing
A mirror I don't want to see my face in
Got me nervous, walking circles like I'm pacing
With my heart racing, wasted
Face it, I hate this
Hopeless
Going blind to the way I can't focus
Throwing stones in a glass house broke it
Run from the past
Til I can't breathe, choking
Shit I can't cope with

And all I ever wanted was your love
But maybe I'm just not enough

"Spotless"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
Don't hold back
Don't worry 'bout me
If it hurts, I'll live through this
Don't hold back
Don't worry 'bout me

The streetlights go out as I drive underneath them
And you once told me that must mean I have an energy inside

When you realize I don't feel the same
Will you call me out by name?

That's the way it goes
When it gets so far away
And you've been all alone
Wishing I was there
You're the one to blame
I tried to make it work
But you're too fucking proud
Turned the Mona Lisa to another face up in the crowd

The streetlights go out as I drive underneath them
And you once told me that must mean I have an energy inside

(An energy inside)
(Oh, an energy inside)

Spotless

RiverKinn
"Albatross"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
Living reckless
Nicotine for breakfast
I was born defective with an albatross necklace
No discretion
Climbing out the wreckage
Recognize the growing ego, I had to check it
Stressing
Opposite of calm and uncollected
Wishing I accepted all the help that I rejected
Chasing independence
I refused to get the message
With the red button syndrome forcing me to press it
Issues
Compromises I could not commit to
I developed habits in an effort not to miss you
And even after all the shit I had to get through
Collateral damage ain't necessary to forget you
We cancel out each other
I'm acidic and you basic
I freehand drew the conclusion
You couldn't trace it
I'm done ignoring there was any indication
You would turn your back on me
Like I knew you couldn't face it

Surrender to the sound
Of giving up and breaking down
Pretending I've convinced myself to care
I'm shooting from the cuff
I've suffered enough for the both of us
How the hell can you tell me this isn't fair?
Surrender to the sound
Of giving up and breaking down
Pretending I've convinced myself to care
(Pretending)
I'm shooting from the cuff
I've suffered enough for the both of us
How the hell can you tell me this isn't fair?
(This isn't fair)

I suspended the hunt, no Mission Impossible
Had me lost, but I'm back
And I'm tackling any obstacle
I stayed escaping the fate of a grave in Dayton
Almost gave my soul to Satan
That solution wasn't logical
Don't wait up
I figured out what I'm made of
Regained everything I gave up
Just to be your Vincent Vega
I've been staying underground like I'm a cicada
Now that my hiatus over, see me go omega

Surrender to the sound
Of giving up and breaking down
Pretending I've convinced myself to care
(Pretending)
I'm shooting from the cuff
I've suffered enough for the both of us
How the hell can you tell me this isn't fair?
(This isn't fair)

"Paralyze"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
(Aye)
I've been crucified
I see the stigmata when you cross my mind
(Aye)
Had me lost in time
I'm begging for a motherfucking sign
I've been falling out
Living with a doubt of forgiveness
Feeling so disturbed
Coming down with the sickness
I could never leave a witness
Word of mouth
Stay the fuck up out of my business

Bad day, got me caught up in a landslide
All that I can do is pray with my hands tied
I've been looking for an answer I can't find
I could feel it in my spine
Now I'm paralyzed

Paralyze
(Paralyze)
Paralyze
(Aye)
You can try
But there isn't anywhere to hide
Paralyze
(Paralyze)
Paralyze
(Aye)
Dropping bodies in the pit
So prepare to die

Misery
Follow me everywhere, surrounded
I ain't even know for how long
I ain't counted
Never went looking for it
But I found it
Getting back to my roots
Like I'm well grounded
Question everything that I was told
I ain't ever been the type to fit a mold
Let a preconceived notion decompose
That's the only way my garden finna grow
Misery
Follow me everywhere, surrounded

"Railroad"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
Leave me on the railroad tracks
With my hands tied behind my back
I don't want to see it coming
I know there's really nothing
I could even try to change about that

You lit a fire inside
You made me come to life
But now I feel it getting tough to fight
I'm on the night train
Light rain
Tryna get my mind in the right frame
I never do nothing right
We barely speaking now
You always beat me down
Like I ain't someone that you need around
You wanna reap the benefits and leave me out
While my garden growing seeds of doubt

So, there's something missing
No, you never listen
I cope with my condition
I hope for something different
I know it's my decision
I don't want to admit it
I'm broke, you see me slip in
The hole that I've been digging
I'm falling
Really think I need to quit stalling
Waiting by the phone when I know you ain't calling
Crawling
Tryna climb out from beneath the ice
But know the ground ain't thawing

Leave me on the railroad tracks
With my hands tied behind my back
I don't want to see it coming
I know there's really nothing
I could even try to change about that

Leave me on the railroad tracks
With my hands tied behind my back
I don't want to see it coming

"Betamax"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
Take it back
Set a trap
'Cus I hate a rat
Feeling magnetic
Formatted on Betamax
Spit and make the sidewalk crack
See it break in half
Transition to the post-credits scene
Fade to black
Hit the wall
I've been living through a crash course
Last call
Should've never given me a platform
My disheveled attitude
In a bad mood
Put 'em down
Tell 'em that I did it 'cus I had to

Hold up
Had to redirect my focus
I was alone and hopeless
I was bitter that no one noticed
I had given up all my freedom
What I been through left me broken
Now I'm picking up all the pieces
Put myself together
Seize the moment

Gave a fuck for a second, now I'm back
I was stuck in place, now I'm snapping outta that
Couldn't catch a break, but I always caught the flak
You won't see me coming from my angle of attack
What was that?

"Recollide"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
After the damage that you've dealt
You have the nerve to step back in
And interfere with all my plans
I know you miss the way it felt
When I gave into your impossible demands
But you won't convince me again
That you and I could recollide
As if I wouldn't recognize the warning signs
And maybe this is the end
But if I die at least I'll never have to live a lie
With blood on my hands

Blood on my hands
With blood on my hands
With blood on my hands
At least I'll never have to live a lie
With blood on my hands
Blood on my hands
With blood on my hands
With blood on my hands

"Hollow"

I made it out, baby
You cannot follow
Only one way you're falling asleep, so
I had to go, baby
You were so hollow
Looking for whatever you could fill the space with

I made it out, baby

Looking for whatever you could fill the space with

Was I dying
Or killing myself slowly?
I've been trying
To figure it out, lowkey
My head to the wall
Been ignoring these calls
I feel like I'm about to dissolve into nothing
Like I meant nothing to you
It's not discussion
Now I've got nothing to prove
The repercussions of the trust I placed in us
And the position I was put into

"Samara"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
I'll see you in hell
The cards are dealt
How do you live with yourself
And the lies you love to tell
Take a shot below the belt
Don't need your help
I feel like Samara out the well
Ring a bell?
Now I've just about had it
Being treated like a maggot
How can you demand respect
When you've been calling me a f*****
Yeah, you better watch your mouth
Without a doubt
You don't want to be the reason
That I let the demon out
I need a motherfucking break
Stay out the way
Out of patience
And I ain't got the time to fucking play
Ain't no motherfucking game
What a shame
Now I'm sick of being treated
Like I don't feel any pain
Spitting blood into the drain
Nothing to gain
You and I are not the same
You can't wash away the stain
Had to go against the grain
Let me complain
All this motherfucking disrespect
Is driving me insane

Backstabbed
And I felt so gutted
Backstabbed
And I felt so gutted
Backstabbed
And I felt so gutted
Backstabbed

Lost my grip
It wasn't my intent
I let you talk your shit
'Cus I know you just projecting insecurity
What you said, you better take it back
I won't be haunted by the demons that I've dealt with
Backstabbed and I felt so gutted
Hung up on the past
Over that shit, fuck it
Now I'm done
Look at everything that I've become
I'm used to living on the run

"Heated"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
Yeah, I want it
But I don't need it
And now at times
I wish the memories could be deleted
I think about the way
You left me feeling so defeated
You're just another bad decision
That I keep repeating
It's got me heated
Like I'ma be the one to keep the fire stoked
Got some issues
But my condition was never diagnosed
Try and cope
Refocus my vision to kaleidoscope
Only know a few that treated me the same
When I was broke

The lack of signal had me disconnected
I'll admit that most my energy was misdirected
I couldn't take responsibility or see the blessing
Now I recognize that it was only my perspective
In the mirror I respect the man I see reflected
Took the weight up off my back and now I'm decompressing
Always begging for a sign but never heed a message
No insurance on my life, I had to repossess it

I've been under the impression
You still think about me
But I don't have any reason
To believe assumptions
I've spent hours in confession
What a waste of effort
Guilt of a criminal
I gave it all and escaped with nothing

"Shatter"
Produced by RiverKinn

--------------------
I was under the weather
And outwitted a drought
The rain fell
It was better to drown in it
Nihilism and cynical talk
Living in doubt
But doubt didn't amount to shit
Did it?
Put the pole to your chest
Like I'm jousting
Put a rumour to rest
You getting ousted
Stand back
Or let it connect
I've got a mouth full of blood
And a head of regret
You wanna

Leave me shattered
(My broken pieces on the floor)
Even after
(An image I could not restore)
Thoughts so scattered
I can't collect myself
But does it even matter?
(I can't live like this anymore)

I'm falling apart at the seams
As you pull on my strings
As you take everything I know
Try to turn it all against me
But your promises are empty
So now I'm over lamenting
All the scars I show

Leave me shattered
Even after
Thoughts so scattered
I can't collect myself
But does it even matter?

When you left me
I just couldn't shake the memory of you, no
Unrelenting
I've held on too long
I need to let this go
Move on
I was wrong but still
You played your fucking part
I played along
Now I'm gone
You never finish what you start
