Austin (prod. Ian McKinney) [Single Version]

A song about the trials and tribulations of being shot by love. The good, the bad, the ugly.

LYRICS:
*CHORUS* (AshLauren)
I can't handle it, it breaks my heart!
Thought that he loved me how'd it all fall apart?
Shit's got me goin' crazy...Maybe it's all my fault
The girl I was is fading I think that I've been shot...

*VERSE 1* (Stix)
I bought her flowers, opened doors, never let her walk alone
Talked on the phone every night cause the tone of her voice
felt right...Seemed like hours were minutes and the days were too short
I was afraid one day that I'd lose that kinda shortie
Begins the story...I left home to pursue my dreams
Thought if anyone could do it...It would be our team...
That we had built from the ground up...Always wanted to be around her
Seemed it went both ways, the days turned to night and to the sound of
her breath, head against my shoulder as we slept the dark away
I'll never forget those memories...Unlike me, they gonna stay!
Before long I guess I knew her like the back of my hand
She showed me how to be happy, but mostly how to be a man
Damn, I remember those years, remember the tears when I left!
I felt apart of me had went and gone and faced an early death
But still I had her miles away when we talked all was well
Until one day her weak ass fell into another man's spell...

*CHORUS* (AshLauren)
I can't handle it, it breaks my heart!
Thought that he loved me how'd it all fall apart?
Shit's got me goin' crazy...Maybe it's all my fault
The girl I was is fading I think that I've been shot...

*VERSE 2* (Stix)
Met her blue-eyed self in high school, but didn't know her too well
Until we started to talk...My friend had talked her right up
Said she was something, so nice, smart, and head of her class
But this shit came with a price: another shot to the cardiovasc-
ulary system....She was with him...I didn't know!
She never broke out her bubble, soon as she did she let me go!
It's like the instant she left she found a new local...
Some dude at her college...Guess loneliness was my foe
It's like I didn't see it comin'...maybe that's the curse of men
These women fall victim to sin, they'll do anything to win
A bitter end, a theft, another loss, it happened again
I felt like "Good Luck Chuck" left in their damn garbage bin
Thought I was the gentlemen...The one to do it all right
So why these girls put me down and move to the next one that bites?
Must be the attention! Must be these crazy-minded women!
Sick of bein' this nice then never bein' their decision!

*CHORUS* (AshLauren)
I can't handle it, it breaks my heart!
Thought that he loved me how'd it all fall apart?
Shit's got me goin' crazy...Maybe it's all my fault
The girl I was is fading I think that I've been shot...

*VERSE 3* (Stix)
This is the only verse I wrote you, it's sad, but its true
College flew by the wayside, a lot of things changed and I grew
Knew I wasn't ready for love, I didn't know what to do!
Finally received my degree, but was left prayin' at the pew
I stepped out outside from my view, reevaluated myself
I hated where I was at, God, I was asking for help!
My ex's before you destroyed me, I felt on a personal level:
Mental disorder, a friend who ignored me, I had some shit I had to shovel!
But I reveled in your accomplishments, a bad bish, hot as the devil
And not bad meaning bad, I mean bad meaning special...
But I left you, all alone, after 2 years of dedication
And there wasn't much wrong, was just aware of my flirtation
I met some girl on vacation, had a life-changing revelation
I was afraid of ottering "love" cause it had caused me devastation
Knew I couldn't give you what you deserved, so I used her as my way out
A cowardly foul, lookin' at it, I regret that shit now...

*CHORUS* (AshLauren) x 2
I can't handle it, it breaks my heart!
Thought that he loved me how'd it all fall apart?
Shit's got me goin' crazy...Maybe it's all my fault
The girl I was is fading I think that I've been shot...

Saint Augustine's very own: Sevo and Stix
They think they know how to do it
But every song we record, we make sure
EVERY WORD COUNTS

Ha, Ha, Ha
Heart beating, pretty decent reason to start speaking
A beacon in the dark, the sharks to start sneaking
Smart remarks leaking, weary eyes peeking
And sharp the darts breaching, the secrets your heart's keeping
My simple style of solution will solidify
I get a greater generation from a genocide
If you don't like it, I expect you're just a courier
A weak excuse, another social justice warrior
Probably offended by the tone of my voice
But you spend every waking minute by the pros of a choice
Maybe I'll never get the gist of your cause
But I'm saying this to bust a jizz in your thoughts
Zero to troll in nothing but milliseconds
I have the control, end of the short-lesson
Don't wanna buy your bullshit, I'm just browsing
Impossible power levels cause I'm over 9000

You think you know it all, but you don't know shit
I'm riding downtown baby while I'm singing this song
Knowing damn well you won't quit
You got mouth diarrhea, better call the doc
Can't sugar-coat shit when it's hard as a rock
But keep trying cause I'ma keep giving you props

Yea, Stix, Ha, Ha
I-hop like a restaurant when I'm serving you fiends
And break-fast every morning before pursuing my dreams
A hardy start for my art before you're blown to smithereens
You won't last, you won't amount probably to a hill of beans
My hobby, my daily routine's to wreak havoc on the obscene
Gotta have it like an addict sipping liquor, it seems
You won't matter, you'll be splattered all over the damn scene
No crime-stoppers or hip-hop stalkers can ruin my self-esteem
I got team of machines ready to slice your bones clean
You'll be oozing as our bruising makes you fall apart at the seams
Wrecking you 'til you scream and you're losing like Charlie Sheen
I reckon your inflection can't be cured, too extreme
Hope you're insured, are you bulimic? Maybe you're just overheated
With all those turds under your nose pretty soon you'll feel depleted
You've tweeted, sabotaged my feed, posted your comments on my wall
But let's be honest, it's camouflaged greed, you haven't gotten any likes at all

Bitch ass

You think you know it all, but you don't know shit
I'm riding downtown baby while I'm singing this song
Knowing damn well you won't quit
You got mouth diarrhea, better call the doc
Can't sugar-coat shit when it's hard as a rock
But keep trying cause I'ma keep giving you props

Props (Feat. Stix & Sevo) |  Released 11/28/20

You told me when you love someone, that you got to let them go
But my heart is meant for you, I use to call ya just to let you know
Don't give up on us now, we got too far to go
Those words I said back then, well they just haunt my soul
Wish I could turn back time and put us back on course
You're forever on my mind, I hope I've been on yours
Wish you were here by me, I'd give you what you need
But all I am right now is a distant memory

Want to know my biggest fear? I don't want to be alone
I've relived that kiss goodbye 'cause I wish I would have known
That's the last time I'd kiss your face
That's the last time I had some faith
Why'd ya do it to me? Why'd you let me go?
Thought our love was real, but what I didn't know
Is you were creeping on the low, ya wasted all our time
Stuck in the undertow in a place so undivine
Tried to play it off as fine, but broken was my mind
Broken was my heart, you had to go and find what was convenient
Wish I had seen it about the year before
I would have never left, I never needed more
And it's a shame, we had the perfect chemistry
But all you are right now's a distant memory

Distant memories that I wish that you still see
I'll be persistent 'til that day that you come back home to me
You've been lost inside my dreams, the Queen still needs her King
Your soul is searching, but it bleeds, I'll be here for you waiting

A Golden Crown that makes a man
A King, A King, A King, A King

Yea
"Ben Buck" since the 9th grade
Sick rhymes what the mics made
May my writes never wrong, lines never fade
Overworked, but still on, yet I'm underpaid
My "Tone is Royal" like my name is "Ray C"
I speak these words so memories never fade
With these pair of docs, I'm a renegade
Lyrical like "Doc Deuce", "MadHappy" like his mini me
Introduce my brother "Dizz" where the production from
Know my homies for life, that's "D.V. and Dom"
These people I respect so let our kingdom come
"Blackillac" on the stage with strings and a drum
It's Ramadan so let us pray that Corona's done
"Clef, Nova, and 'Chi", that's my fam, we run
laps around this globe, this nation, and this Texas sun
The battle's won in this "Warzone" like it's our Calling
it's our Duty, she's a beauty on the beat, "Devmo"
Yo, it's time to run wild, this ain't no pet-show
We got more talent in our city, let the rest know
"RuMuzik" over here, loco flow
Old tricks, "Nice Kicks", custom "Marc Mofoz"
Name's "Stix", telling y'all bout some hip local
lunatics who mix hits, so humble and noble
Nuclear, vocally sick like we're in "Chernobyl"
I'm "Shelly Knicks" swimming through chicks 'til I find the right one
Cause most these blood-sucking ticks, hate to say it, they're no fun
Need more "Shirley's and Sara-Britt's", queens, second to none
And more "John's, Chris's, Garik's", couldn't have become
What I have, if it wasn't for them, that's what friends do
I'm no longer that skinny kid that thought you once knew
Putting us on the map, like "Quin NFN", we're going "Straight Thru"
The top of this industry, doing what we're meant to do
You just heard a
A King, A King
Yuh

Ay, ay, ay, ay is she nice or naughty?
Got a kind ass smile with a bad lil body
Ay, ay, I'm so glad she saw me...
In this cold ass world I really need a hottie
Uh yeaa, let me kiss ya softly...
If you got a man now, I won't tell nobody
Nah, you couldn't make a copy...
I just gotta know now if she nice or naughty?

First impressions mean everything and more
I got some questions we really need to explore
I saw you twerkin' your possessions on the floor
From my assessment you're like nothing that I've ever seen before
Is it a sound investment if I take ya out them shorts? 
Like a Porsche to the owner of a Honda Accord...
You're likely a luxury that I probably can't afford
But tonight I'm yours, are you worth goin' broke for?
I hope to cram it down your throat with your permission of course
Slam it 'til ya strike a note that you didn't know was yours
Have you on fours, grabbin' for a Trojan like a horse
And finish the night off with some sexual intercourse!

Is she nice or naughty?
Got a kind ass smile with a bad lil body
Ay, ay, I'm so glad she saw me...
In this cold ass world I really need a hottie
Uh yeaa, let me kiss ya softly...
If you got a man now, I won't tell nobody
Nah, you couldn't make a copy...
I just gotta know now if she nice or naughty?

Naughty or nice, I'll pay the price for a slice of you
Treat you right, unlike these other guys, they have no clue
Low IQ and what they spew well it's seldom true...
But with me, won't leave your heart in two, I see value
I won't desert you, I got dessert for you
And while this D may hurt, you deserve something HUGE
Don't settle for less, the devil is stressed
Cause you're special, an angel, God certainly blessed
You with ASSets, you're as good as it gets...
Plenty of fish, but wish you would catch net
I can tell you're upset, by the way that they treat you
But I am obsessed, girl it's so nice to meet you! Dayummm!

Is she nice or naughty?
Got a kind ass smile with a bad lil body
Ay, ay, I'm so glad she saw me...
In this cold ass world I really need a hottie
Uh yeaa, let me kiss ya softly...
If you got a man now, I won't tell nobody
Nah, you couldn't make a copy...
I just gotta know now if she nice or naughty?

Now bring it up...bring it up...
And I'm gonna show you how the dick taste
Small face, lookin' good girl, what them hips say
We at your place, show me where that dick lay 
Work it out at your pace and get that minute-maid
Beast, I'm a dog, I'm on a dog on my hunt (Woof!)
Lookin' for the girls big gas in the cunt
And I don't even stunt, you ain't stuntin' for nuttin'
You got that dun dun dunn dunnn...
She on it, she poppin', she got that:
Twerk, I'ma merc that, I don't give a fuck
I live it up! Oh! Oh and by the way I'm fucking great
If you're on the towel, please put it in your face
Use to serve food, but I never loved to wait...
Heard the pussy talk back said murder was the case
On the naughty list, getting coal, ain't no saint! 
Nahhh, I'm a winner, she a sinner
Scorpio about to have his dinner!

Ay, ay, ay, ay is she nice or naughty?
Got a kind ass smile with a bad lil body
Ay, ay, I'm so glad she saw me...
In this cold ass world I really need a hottie
Uh yeaa, let me kiss ya softly...
If you got a man now, I won't tell nobody
Nah, you couldn't make a copy...
I just gotta know now if she nice or naughty

2019. It's your boy Stix...
Knocking this rust off...I'm back!
Hahaha...Let's do a little something like this...
Let's switch it up on 'em...

Let's get this show on the road, and we rollin', rollin'...
This show on the road, yea we rollin'...we're rollin' now...
Roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', roll, roll, rollin' rollin'
Yeaaa bitch, roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', rollin', roll
Yeaaa bitch, let 'em know!

Aww shit, y'all got me chompin' at the bit
Another snake up in the pit, another trip out to the strip
Here in Austin we call 6th, where we party till we're sick
Too sick, now let us rip, sober-up until we spit
This hangover from out our lip, we call it shooting from the hip
Hop right up on my dick, strip, we got ourselves a hit
I'll let her call all the shots, our mission's to never stop
Harder, better, faster, stronger, till she can't take it any longerrrrr

Let's get this show on the road, and we rollin', rollin'...
This show on the road, yea we rollin'...we're rollin' now...
Roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', roll, roll, rollin' rollin'
Yeaaa bitch, roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', rollin', roll
Yeaaa bitch, let 'em know!

I'm a cold lyrical artist, smartest on the block
It's a miracle I'm the sharpest slicin' competition off
God blessed me through the darkness, I wasn't cut from the same cloth
They say the first million's the hardest, but I know it'll pay off
Not about to wallow in salt cause I seen you slugs play victim
You're not the brightest light on the dock, damn sure not the loudest system
I'm bringing intelligence to the rhyme and cleverness to the written
Measureless by the ruler...There's no measure to what I'm giving
Pleasureless since my ex...Thought life without you wasn't worth-living
But that shit made me stronger, if you only knew what you were missin!
And while my heart is still stitched up, I enriched my outlook on this life
You don't always get what you want, but there's better things in sight
The knife can take it's toll, that gun can leave a hole
The mind can get messed up, but with faith you'll find you're role
My goal is to live my passion, in an orderly fashion
"When do I get your CD?" The question everybody's asking...

Let's get this show on the road, and we rollin', rollin'...
This show on the road, yea we rollin'...we're rollin' now...
Roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', roll, roll, rollin' rollin'
Yeaaa bitch, roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', rollin', roll
Yeaaa bitch, let 'em know!

Yuhhh...Hey, what up, Stix?
Yo...still don't give no kind of fucks!
Always kill the "game" so my niggas keep a lot of "bucks" (think about it)
Niggas livin' in the fast lane...I take it slow and still run 'em up
And go to work...What's a Hot Wheel to a Tonka Truck?
I'm a D-boy and not cause I'm from Detriot...
I dominate, deboggle, defeat a dummy and destroy!
Deliver dick to your dame, I'm hittin' deploy...
Unless you hit second I guess you can be my decoy...
Except I'm so much better...everything from the clothes to the cheddar
Hoes on my cock and their friends are birds of a feather
They don't ever dress for the weather...
Summertime lace, wintertime leather
I got where I'm at cause my beats stay cold and my word play clever
You bitch knows my lyrics to the letter...
I run shit! I don't got time for the dumb shit!
Fry ass-niggas that be hatin' on your progress...
But I bite the bullet, Bruce Lee Roy!
And I get excited like a minor who grew up on Disney
And didn't get to watch Miley Cyrus twerk it!
Nigga I'm workin', bitch you hurtin'
Lookin' like Billy Ray Cyrus...BARS

Let's get this show on the road, and we rollin', rollin'...
This show on the road, yea we rollin'...we're rollin' now...
Roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', roll, roll, rollin' rollin'
Yeaaa bitch, roll, roll, rollin' rollin', roll, rollin', rollin', roll
Yeaaa bitch, let 'em know!

Let's get this show on, flow on an atomic neutron, so gone
From here to Tucson, Taiwan, we keep it logged-on in Austin
This is the new dawn, new year, let all the bygones, be bygone
This here is my song, I'm onto the next level, icon
Let's get this show on, flow on an atomic neutron, so gone
From here to Tucson, Taiwan, we keep it logged-on in Austin
This is the new dawn, new year, let all the bygones, be bygone
This here is my song, I'm onto the next level, icon
Cause I don't play I grind all day, all week, each month, all year
And I don't care what haters say, their bullshit I steer clear...

ATXien Alien, moldin' your cranium
But I ain't babyin' you dummies with a mind like a titanium
Trap, I'm back, I got more fans than Yankee Stadium
Leavin' my haters blue like they swim in the Mediterranean
Middle fingers flipped up, welcome to my gymnasium
Openin' up to what I'm meant to be, call this shit my atrium
Phasin' me never mentally till you're instrumentally convinced
I clinch the competition, while you coming through in a pinch
Clever today, rich tomorrow, until the violet crown's on this prince
And this pay's never borrowed, but you, you're left on the fence
You go all in without thinkin', I go in inch by inch
And I always carry a Magnum so upon entrance
I'm ready for whatever...I'm ready to pop off
Brain Ninja now and forever...I'm steadily on draw
Readily on call, I don't stall to cut, SAW
But I ain't leaving you drenched ma, I'm leaving it cleaned off
Don't want no baby mama drama, but trauma induced to your body
I wasn't talkin' bout a revolver, I was talkin' bout my shootie
Wrapped up and in ya shawty, she's a master of Pilates
Polly want a cracker? I'll leave her hotter than Hot Tamales
PHEW!

20 bar verses after 12 bar hooks
I attack, call the nurses, the game's about to be shook
Get off my back all you lames that lack, these rooks wanna act
Like they know what they doin', but their actions always wack
Give'em a smack...Knock'em up good...Give 'em some damn sense
Cause they don't understand what it means to build a sentence
No expense...All paid...The mind's a wonderful thing 
That's why you gotta use it wisely so they'll see what you've seen
Don't demean, don't point ya finger, lets explain the best demeanor
Keep it movin', never linger, you can't remain to stay tense
Gotta keep it clean, yet still so dirty, no hurry, no accidents
No need to worry if it's worthy...They'll know it the content's there
Yea, you heard me...I don't play no games...I give it straight to the point
No manual...Shit's automatic when I wrap up a joint
No disappointment, no disagreein' with the things that are said
No compromises on the issues that make us messed in the head
As I bled...The words spread from one opponent to another
And when it was read and heard...They knew there wasn't any other
Got love for my Ninja brothas, as we aim to take the throne
You've been warned, here's where history's made and legends are born!

CHORUS repeats

Warning, warning...system, system overload...
Be careful...He is not of this earth...Stix is NOT of this earth!
He goes by Stix, he goes by...ATXien Alien...alien...

Yea...
Dear Ivy, there's likely..
Likely poison in your veins
You're bound and locked in chains
Our love exploded, now it's flamin' and

A fire is scorchin', you're buildin' your fortune
On a bed made of porcelain, there is no remorsement
For what you have done, but your day will soon come
As that poison keeps coursin', poison keeps coursin'
A fire is scorchin', you're buildin' your fortune
On a bed made of porcelain, there is no remorsement
For what you have done, but your day will soon come
As that poison keeps coursin', poison keeps coursin'

As your poison hits my reputation, let's talk about our relations
About your dark twisted love, how I fell for your evol temptations
And why my heart is still achin'...Girl, I'd had given you my all
Years of supportin' your vision and admirin' you from afar...
Reconnected last Fall, honestly thought it could work
But all your complainin' and bitchin' had me down, feelin' hurt
Bought tickets to fly out to see you, booked a trip in advance
Would have thought I was cheatin', how you showed your romance
Wouldn't give us a chance, you just stood my ass up
Too busy with your business, but you could've made it work!
You left me alone, gave me no effort, no time...
And all this because you seemed so scared in your mind
Paranoid about nothing, second-guessing my actions
And your constant "Loss of Words" had me heated and grabbing
Onto some strand of hope...Girl, what you want's such a joke!
If you don't change how you think, your heart'll always be cold
There's a hell down below ya, and it spawns from your past
The love I wanted to show ya, would've made that evol pass
And it's so disappointin'...how you could treat me like that
Likely just poison in your veins, girl your brain has gone mad!

Likely poison in your veins
You're in a world of pain
And I don't know if you will ever change
Or what's your motive?
I'm bound and locked in chains
Our love exploded, now it's flamin' and

A fire is scorchin', you're buildin' your fortune
On a bed made of porcelain, there is no remorsement
For what you have done, but your day will soon come
As that poison keeps coursin', poison keeps coursin'
A fire is scorchin', you're buildin' your fortune
On a bed made of porcelain, there is no remorsement
For what you have done, but your day will soon come
As that poison keeps coursin', poison keeps coursin'

I suppose I jumped the gun, I always gravitate towards fun
Always desire the unexpected, light fires I can't run from
Learned some lessons from being burned, but always thought you were the one
There's always been something about you I can't put my finger on
An undeniable attraction I'd give anything to have...
I wish you knew how strongly I felt, I wish I could feel that back
I guess it's always been one-sided, I'm too different from what you want
I think our differences made us perfect and no one else can get you!
It'll haunt you till you're lonely
whoever's wronged you, they're all phoney!
Want the real thing? Please just phone me!
I want your body for my eyes only...
Yea, you've hurt me, it still burns slowly
I'd doust the fire if you could show me...
The antidote to cure this pain...
I loved you girl, and it's a shame...

A fire is scorchin', you're buildin' your fortune
On a bed made of porcelain, there is no remorsement
For what you have done, but your day will soon come
As that poison keeps coursin', poison keeps coursin'
A fire is scorchin', you're buildin' your fortune
On a bed made of porcelain, there is no remorsement
For what you have done, but your day will soon come
As that poison keeps coursin', poison keeps coursin'
