Anøther Høllywøød Demøn (Prod. Expulsing)

I passed a couple kids holding hands in the street tonight, they reminded me of us in another life, one where i dreamed of you like the girl of my desire, the one thatll be my wife 

like a younger stage, when we never knew it was a phase, hopefully ull see me up the stage, everywhere i go i see your face 
im not even back at home, no im never going back to home

oh-oh-oh

and im not even back home and no im 
never goin back home, 

ima drive this Volvo all alone
takin this road all on my own
with the vision of what we coulda been, but its just an illusion
in love with music, but its just an emotion
dreams that are lucid and its just an illusion 
drugs paint a picture and its full of delusion 


turned my house into ghost town, thats why every single persons going ghost now, you wont care if i drown in this sorrow, all alone but inside that lucid dreams theres of silhoutte of you and me holdin hands in the altar but its just a illusion

(JUST AN ILLUSION)

and i wonder all the time if i was the man of your desire, just another from your hometown, 
turned my home to a ghost town, cause my dreams all are illusions and my songs full of delusion 

guess this lifes just a delusion

just a delusion

Gøød Vibes Interlude Freestyle (prod. everestdidthis)

this have been a year with a lotta goodbyes, 

and im not good at goodbyes
im going crazy these nights
mix some cheap liquor on ice

this an emotional overdose like the other times 

feel like that ill decompose not one of my lies

im no good at goodbyes see it on my eyes

never wanted em outta my life 
but theres no way i coulda save em tho
cuz i need to be saved too,
face my fears, face to face as we meet and i swear it got my heart racin like a track meet

this a emotional overdose, feeling like ill decompose, and dont tell me to shut up, dont want friends out my life tonight, dont want her out my life dont wanna fight, dont wanna say goodbye im not good at goodbyes

have to say goodbye some times,
hope this is just like the other lies, 
i dont know what to do, see it on my eyes, a kid that have lost too much, hope ill get the midas touch, before we have to say goodbye, need to stay high, hope i wont bleed out my nose 

this a emotional overdose, feeling like ill decompose, and dont tell me to shut up, dont want friends out my life tonight, dont want her out my life dont wanna fight, dont wanna say goodbye im not good at goodbyes

lover goodbye
best friend goodbye
killed herself so high, couldnt say goodbye
brother goodbye
granny goodbye
hope we met up in heaven, watch the time as it goes by, wont need to stay high
know ill make a better life the rest of us, a place where finally we’ll rest, no pain on the chest, but this kid aint feeling like the best, dont say goodbye, ima make my best to make it better on this test, put it on the ones that rest

Gødspeed ( LIL PEEP FAN MADE TRIBUTE ON THE GODSPEED BEAT NON PROFIT)

Rings make helpless
Dont call me selfish 
Love got me hopeless
Wish she do care more
Than she seem to wanna give
I should have gray hairs, thats truth no dare,
But she just fucking fakes care

Ive been meeting people that i hardly fuckin know,  and my minds bout fuckin implode, baby my heart will just explode, and im sorry again i messed it up, missed your birthday, heaven soul, and i know i was in and out... ending up fallin out, now i admit, that i always need your love not just for now

When im outside she says, take ur time have fun out on the road the only one i know, guess ill drown inside the cold, while volvo got it safe on me, guess i need someone worried bout my health, but this girls just care bout my dick and my wealth, girl im still a kid, tryna cope with what i did

Rings make me helpless
Dont  call me selfish
Love got me hopeless 
Volvo aint safe-less 

Look inside her eyes and i know theres a lotta flaws, look at my wrist it is, flawless our conection that is soul-less, gues i met her in the outlets, but shes in and out, feeling my brain frying, maybe im too smooth just like olive oil, but i felt conection with your soul...

Rings make helpless
Dont call me selfish 
Love got me hopeless
Volvo aint safe-less
Your soul was flawless
Wish i could care less

It aint bad ur with someone thatlll give you what i cant, but it got me sad, while this bitches drive me mad, whip it like its nascar, in my life shell leave a scar, well im safe while im in a volvo car,
Wish i could care less
Im feeling worthless
Rings make helpless
Dont call me selfish 
Love got me hopeless
Volvo aint safe-less

And i know while im drivin in the Volvo car got me safer than its in my heart, love just leave scarred, i guess being fucked up all the time its funny, itll turn nothing to somethin, next thing i know im losing money, im a fukced up druggie, and relationships aint make it better always ending hurt sad inside my heart, couldnt talk to friends, and it tears me apart, maybe ill relapse on the pills to protect my heart

Rings got me helpless
Dont call me selfish 
Love got me hopeless
Volvo aint safe-less
Beamer aint hoe less
Know volvos worth it

joji when i look inside her eyes, it is just a glimpse of us, “perfect” dont mean nothing when the worlds a mess, what u call that? head over heels 
Where my minds at?
