SWISH 12/1

[CHORUS]
We don't fuck with people who will tell lies
So do not try
Take it outside
We should pick on someone that's our own size
You're a small fry
You don't meet our eyes

[AYEM]
Got education but I'm still doin dumb shit
But dumb shit got me smiling like a face lift 
I'm only 20 but got wisdom like sage bitch
got no money but you could say I'm face rich
Just a little white boy with no god damn perspective
 but pass the mic please and I feel like a reverend. 
They used to call me ugly but I grew into myself
gained some confidence now they want on house shit.
I don't have time for any questions
Because my time it is a blessing.
You're gonna need a lucky seven
To break my stride man I'm feeling like Eleven.
Telekinetics on my brethren.
I'm tryna lift us to the top
Demons try to make me stop 
Man our records don't flop 
Bet a hundred this drops
Shout it from the rooftop
Yeah we never gon' stop 

[CHORUS]

[ROSE IMAGE]
aw shit think i found my buzz
all bam bam way i hit that club
might turn heads when i cross the scene
might send a prayer on a new young thing
young thing in a new Mercedes
only let niggas rock christans baby
said i actin too christian lately
well if you got a problem call houston baby
who sayin i ain’t bout my business
honestly y’all need to cut the nonsense
sendin beats to me is putting them on death row
yeah i kill them shits i already know 
what’s my name what’s my name
i’m too quick like usain
seem calm but i’m insane
ben 10 with the wrist game

[CHORUS]

LIARS

REPROACH

WOULDN'T

Thank you to everyone who made this possible and thank you for joining us. This has been SWISH.

MERCY

[rose image.]
I took the time
And went on a search for my other
Roll it up, take a puff
Pretend like I don’t know no better
Crazy how the time works
Crazy how the mind flies
I can spend eternity
Lookin for a peace of mind

[AYEM]
Feel like they want a piece of mine
Would like to say I’m never stressing
I got a lot in my mind like all doubts all my 
Blessings
Listen if I changed the world
Would anybody even notice it?
But fuck it it wont really make a difference.

[CHORUS]
Can you see me?
Cus I see nothing at all. 
Can you feel me?
Cus all I feel is the fall
The fall.

THE MOMENT

[CHORUS]
we can go
somewhere past the sun
where there’s no one
open up to something
more than i can see

[rose image.]
Imma beat the brakes off em
Take a seat watch while I lay waste to em
Words spoken have a mighty strange taste to em
But everybody poppin off, I’m just late for it
See things are gettin strange
I’ve been walking round living life in a haze
Blessed with some ignorance heading my way
Bitchin like it’s hard to be you these days
Yeah like it’s hard shit
You been living lucky but you scared to talk about it
You been acting funny, like some people talkin bout you
But take a look around you
Ain’t nobody talkin
So imma just
Keep my fuckin g’s up
Ain’t nobody need ya
And my shit is too hot
I could never freeze up
Tell me where the fuck you going
Quit that playin like you know it
From the island 
Guess I’m gone

[CHORUS]

[AYEM]
Something I can’t see
I got Shoestrings in my belt loop
Talk some shit and I will show you northern hospitality 
Fuck your opinion if you don’t fuck with my vision
They calling me a dog but I cannot fuck you with you bitches
Yeah and this ish is explicit
Yeah stay way of my business
Yeah popping off like Rice Krispies 
I got the number for our limousine yeah
And they acting like they give a fuck
Damn swish is a masterpiece 
But I’m bout to switch it up 
It’s now or never 
There’s never been fairer weather
Forget umbrella ella ella ayy
But you’re an impossible flower 
showers watering my garden 
But imma try my hardest to put it into 
Terms you can understand
Need a second make a plan 
Running out of time the clock is spinning circles hour hand
Music in my Walkman 
Make me feel like bad man 
But really I’m just tryna make it day by day like oh man 
Like oh man

[CHORUS]

THE SUN

[rose image.]
i done searched the world for the answers now
to hold it down
i might have to get all on the ground
but what to say
that don’t really matter to them anyway
imma go avoid my shit
and just might blow the day away
 where them dollar bills at
still gotta get that
work to get my wallet fat
then who gone tell me somethin huh
you saw my shit 
and really thought you was gone skip it huh
this aint the first time that i caught you feelin stupid huh
out of sight

out of sight
i might burn your fuckin eyes out
man my future so damn bright
out of sight
out of sight
out of sight
i might burn my fuckin future out
but hol up
wait a minute
imma let you finish
but tell me who better than me
i can serve you all this dope shit
dont know why i do it for free
im off this
but in the garden there be snakes
so i’m cautious
pay no attention to the fakes, no
but i know y’all love it
when i get to rappin (mmm hmm)

how did this shit even happen (mmm hmm)
momma been told me

and get to thinkin you gone get one over
im from a place where they dont play
and they dont need no cover
it’s rosé
dont ever forget my fuckin name
now where my dawgs at

[CHORUS]
it seems to me that boys don’t cry
that boys don’t cry

i can’t even explain
what i felt yesterday
when you looked at me this way
and i finally felt ok

[CHORUS]

oh, you're my sunshine
oh, you're my sunshine baby

THE STORM

[CHORUS]
sometimes i like just to hold my breath

[AYEM]
got your voice as my ringtone
Long time that Ive been gone
doubts never stop when I’m alone
where you been huh
need a sec so i can think
I’m on the step I’m on the brink
trying to find some peace of mind
things arent what they seem huh
somedays i pray for maseratis
somedays i be praying for my health (aw yeah)
but everyday and ill put that on my momma I am trying to put my fears up on the shelf (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
river runs deep and the waters cold as ice it’s got a young man sink or swimming for his life
anxiety controlling me  
mental state is dwindling
I remember way back when
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
we was lighting up in the back of the car
had my middle finger up I swear we never gon die
we hit the grocery late night
gotta get the supplies
and we stayed bumpin acid rap shit while we whipped in the ride
sometimes

[CHORUS]

[rose image.]
i’m far away from perfect
and i already know it
i can’t remember nothing
please pass that
i’ve been missin home
but still can’t never call
and act like nothing’s wrong
please pass that
but see i love the madness
i know it’s hard to watch
but i’ve been makin perfect moments
smokin with my demons
now i’m showin up
the people love me now
but still i’m must admit
i’m losin focus fuckin
sippin on whatever next
gripin on that cliff, huh?

woe is me
oh i lost it now
on my knees
oh i’m breaking down

and i’m back on the map
and i tried to shed a tear
but kept my ego in my lap
i can’t feel anything
please take my hand

promise me you will

[CHORUS]

Got it on my back leg 
Back to bar two I am feeling like the Batman

Like I’m on hidden cameras 
Yeah I’m getting paranoid 
Like a junky 
Switch flows got em bumpy 
Rick roll making money

Feeling kinda light see I’m feeling kinda way up 
If you want to use my instrumental bitch you better pay up 
Interlude yeah I’m feeling you

[CHORUS]

away from home aint got no locket
time is steady switching pockets
no one knows what I’m bout ay

[AYEM]
twenty four hours and
seven days a week three years i aint pay for 
nobody gonna say shit when i say so

wanna stay in with a movie and just lay low?
maybe smoke a couple grams drink some pinot
yeah i hear em talking shit what do he know?
the time is coming and its going like a see saw 
Yes I’m feeling oh so fine
filling some more glasses up
time is never on my side so you know i cant make this shit up
sliding all the windows up
flip this record to its back
next life i still take you back
quickly then i run it back 
making moves like running back
fake shit we don’t fuck with that
I’m sure i said just what i said you know i never take shit back
maybe theres an app for that
flipping words on me like an acrobat
i need a vacation where the islands at
where the islands at

[CHORUS]

[rose image.]
yo the name is rosé, yeah i came to ball
i got plans of doin good so i can never fall
lookin for a good time, i can show you all
but i forgot what i was sayin, i just can’t recall
i think i’m feelin it
i’m on some other shit
i was gone so long ago but didn’t notice it
and now i’m stumbling
tumbling on everything
grip on what i’m sippin on
i’m still gone go and do my thang
oh man
let me track back for a minute
hit that for a minute
get scared 
might head for the hills in a minutes I
hold up, calm down
need to breathe for a minute
*breath*
don’t come slow when i come back in
flame start rollin when i drop my pen
ridin round slow with the windows tint(ed)
that’s just me man, big ol pimp(in)
hey man
let me talk on some real shit 
now who dat be
who be droppin that good shit
boy you talkin like you already famous
doesn’t matter cause
i know we still your favorite

[CHORUS]

THE CONVERSATION

[AYEM]
what do you want from me
dont rip the floor out from under me
i need a break from monotony 
so just answer me honestly
have you ever held something but its feeling like a day dream
night so cold
the sun dips below horizon
the wind stops blowing and everything is real
and the world stands still 
Have you ever been sure of anything no way
Have you ever felt a reason to stay

[CHORUS]
I need you more than you know

Seconds turn to minutes, minutes turn to hours
Ours make a lifetime
Ain't another love like mine
Need a second cus I'm running out of things to say 
Your passions low tide 
And I'm riding on a tidal wave
But I'll always come back cus I love your ways
So oh won't you stay 
I need you now more than ever
All this pressure got me stressing
Put my heart up on this record
Okay
Fear has got me acting reckless 
Future got me asking questions
Like I’m running out of time
Okay
I need to break that
Gotta get back 
To the way it was 
Before all this
Get summer break back
Miss the times when I felt all that 
Just drove around and 
Pick up a ten bag
Feel myself lean back

[CHORUS]

THE REJECTION

[AYEM]
Afraid of being young
But scared of growing old
I need a place to hide
So I can get my mind right
You had me fucked up 
But I've fucked up too
I need a place to hide 
So I can get my mind right

Even I can admit that
Sometimes I get in over my head
I'll admit that I'll admit that
I'll admit that
But it was not my fault alone. 
I know you'll come back 
Like you always do. 
No I'm not angry 
I just need to be real with you

THE CONFESSION

[CHORUS]
everybody talkin like this
everybody talkin like this
yo mans ain’t shit
everybody bumpin that bitch
everybody bumpin that bitch
yo mans ain’t shit

[rose image.]
Everybody bumpin that shit
From the same mah fuckas everybody overlooked now 
Everybody wanna say they ain’t know it
But now a nigga bump and they wanna see a show now
Oh now you a cool muhfucka
Damn straight, should’ve known muhfucka
I ain’t wanna but you know I had to do it
Rosie Rosie
Stop the playing
Everybody know that you wasn’t nothin
Everybody know you can’t fuck the game up
So what’s the issue
What’s yo problem
I just might fuckin crash
By never looking back
But if I never still
Then all my niggas will

[CHORUS]

[AYEM]
Please don’t tell me nothing. 
Already feel that judgement from you. 
Try to act like you know who I am now.
Head scratching cus I do not remember. 
One time better tell me one time
We had conversation none come to mind
One time better tell me one time
I dont fuck with you if you don’t fuck with mine

left you up lake side 
now I’m on my shit
and you in my line

bitch why you lying
shoutout all the people said I couldn’t do shit
middle finger to the cool kids
I was young grade one knew id make it
so don’t tell me the odds
cause i couldn’t give two shits
Did you know that it’s one in million who make it?
You really think you’re the one? You must be faking
But you’ll never be able to afford vacation. 
Good luck with all that noise you’re making. 
Wind hits heavy on the borderline. 
This the shit that’s on my mind
My future right in front of me so no I will not empathize

[CHORUS]

THE MAN

[CHORUS]

No I aint your friend
