Lovesick

Pretend

Wanna belong to someone new.
A lot to put me through when I don’t even know.
What am I s’posed to do when I’m on my own? 

Maybe I’m giving it my best.
I’m giving it my guess,
So here it goes. 
Come take me like a test weighing cons and pros.

I just hope I last until it’s over. 
I’m just joking, so can we pretend like we’re in love with each other? 

Bummer. I thought that would work. Now I look like a jerk. 

I’m not prepared to pick and choose. 
This game is rigged to lose. My mind. My brain. 
I’m so god damn confused. I’m so used and drained. 

I just hope I last until it’s over. 
It’s a joke, so can we be both be in love?
But only for pretend.

Pretend

Kissin

I am no beginner,
Crushing on a circumstance.
Make me reconsider.
Make me wanna change my plans.

Are we moving faster,
Than we are supposed to be?
Let’s avoid disaster.
We can take it nice and easy.

Your eyes are alcoholic.
Drunk when I stare for too long. 
Don’t think I can stop it. 
Just one look, and I am gone. 

I been using all my,
Moves for your approval,
Since the day we met. 
Ooh, Are you convinced you like me yet?

I never try so hard.
I’m not the one to chase. 
Often, I’m reluctant.
Never rushing. Always safe.
Stopping is impossible when we both feel the same.
It’s all happening so soon. Out of the blue, I’m kissing you for the first time. 

I am at your mercy. 
Maybe I was all along.
Make me act so thirsty.
Wanna turn the faucet on.

Ooh it’s getting hotter.
Worship your anatomy.
One tall drink of water.
Won’t you come and baptize me?

Normally I wait, and,
That’s why I’m attempting to,
Stop accelerating.
It’s so difficult to do. 

Better to be patient,
But I’m sure these feelings are
Not infatuation. 
Baby, you’re the best I’ve had so far. 

I never try so hard.
I’m not the one to chase. 
Often, I’m reluctant.
Never rushing. Always safe.
Stopping is impossible when we both feel the same.
It’s all happening so soon, and now I’m holding you for the first time. 

We will decide that this is right, and when it seems like
too much, we still can’t get enough. Tonight we’re makin love for the first time.

Kissin (feat. Desperate Electric)

Be That Way 

Yeah I know that you been waiting,
For someone special to come along. 
Try and remind you that I’m right here for taking,
And when I do, you always act like you forgot. 

What are you thinking when I catch your eye? 
Cuz I know that you be liking what you’re seeing. 
And when I say, “Please baby let me be the one.”
You always tell me no without giving a reason. 

I am not a perfect man. 
So much I don’t understand. 
But there’s no question in my mind,
If you let me, babe, I’ll do ya right. 
Guess I’ll wait another day. 
That’s just fine. Be that way. 
Keep letting you lead me on.
Just don’t make me wait too long. 

Don’t wanna hesitate. 
That’s fine. Be that way. 
Don’t have to complicate it. 
That’s fine. Be that way. 
Girl I love you so much. 
I know you feel the same, so why keep waiting? You can be that way. 

I really want to take you seriously. 
Guess I’m hanging around until you decide,
To make this real or keep on playing with me. 
Girl you know I got the goods, so just be mine. 

Tell me what I’m doing wrong.
I wake up after you are gone. 
Am I not enough to make you stay? 
That’s just fine. Be that way.
Baby you can let me go,
If you prefer to be alone. 
Oh I hope you let me in,
Cuz I got so much love to give ya. 

Don’t wanna hesitate. 
That’s fine. Be that way. 
Don’t have to complicate it. 
That’s fine. Be that way. 
Girl I love you so much. 
I know you feel the same.
Don’t have to complicate it.

Be That Way (feat. Dylan Hayes)

Grind

Too much shit to do. 
Not enough time to do it. 
I could never do it all. 

Too proud. Too busy. 
I’m so tough. 
I work until I’m dizzy. 
It’s never enough. 

Better hustle. It’s my culture. 
I ain’t no dead beat. 
Hang around like a vulture,
Or become dead meat.

Oh god! I’m so afraid.
I see my list grow every day.
Busier than ever before.
Check something off then add two more.

Out here surviving. 
Is there a point? 
Fuck me for even trying.
I’m just making noise.

You’re spending. Well, I’m whoring.
Sleep when I’m dead. 
Better tired than boring. 
I’d eat the flesh off children just to get ahead.

Look at me now. I bare my soul.
There is no end. There is no goal. 
A foolish race against a clock,
That ticks in your head. It never stops. 

Not enough time to.
Fallin behind, yuh.
Losing my mind.
Live for the grind.
Gotta remind ya.
Too much shit, and not the time to do it.

Grind

Heartbreak

I guess it’s finally time I write that song about you. 
I guess I’ll post it online and feel bad.  

Everyone digs a good song about a sad boy break up. 
Everyone digs a new wrong way to act. 

I didn’t make it seem like we’d be together always. 
I didn’t make it feel right hanging on. 

Now I dunno know what I’m doing here. It’s all forsaken. 
I don’t know what I’m doing here at all. 

It’s not cute. I’m not jokin. 
It’s heartbreak.
I’m not through feeling broken.
It gets harder every day.
Maybe you were never hoping, 
To see me change. 
So confused cuz I keep choosing heartbreak. 
Heartbreak. 

I always thought that a selfless love was how we’d make it. 
I just want you to be happy with life. 

I’m tryna figure out how cuz now my heart is breaking. 
Now I just lay around, break down and cry.

Heartbreak
