(Intro :)
yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yagi...
my love for you..
find a reason..

(Verse)
Painted.
talking shit behind my back to all your homies
when i thought that it was love , ian trippin nah im painless
by the time i realized i wasn't valued , all my feelings dissipated
 and i hate it cause i knew what i was facing , 
 focused on the good in you
in love i was sedated , 
im no longer the angel that you took for fucking granted , i was flaccid now im harder than alumina ceramic , i just let it be organic cause
it be the people that we care about that break the trust , dent the heart and dip on us..because of lust 
we're all sinners...
motives ever sinful yea we're all swingers..
covering the pain drugs are concealers..(yeah) instead of learning detachment , we wanna hurt them back so start we start seeking a rematch and only end up hurtin us more when we shoulda let go 
but we tryna keep score it aint worth it look!
everything  gradually changed when i 
started seeking knowledge , i stopped doing the rain dance , im moving on...dont try to hit my line you'll get that dial tone im redirecting routes
can't find a reason to keep holding on...cause i got prolems that i cant ignore , i need the lord 
couldnt ever need you like i did before...losing me is what a nigga cant afford..dont you know
couldnt ever need you like i did before...

Letter To The Opps

(Verse 1)
Im Straight out the hood.... where 
it's like alotta rapper niggas but none of them packing no heat , (scoffs)
if i said it i meant it , to hell witcho feelings listen with heed....(yurd) 
see i caught a couple bodies and i put em in the lobby 
they wont ask for feature
they speaking cap but they preachers
s'why i dont hang with em niggas
they dealers and scammers they hide dirty hands and they say they aint sinners...
 losing they dignity , seeking validity , chasing the luxury , sanity cut for some figures...(oooh)
(mad ting innit)
spitting with the same tone yall dont even change flows...they prolly got a writer , or they wired either way we seen the ghost sneeking thru the backdoor

(Practice what you preach , tell no lies and lay to rest the lies and deceit...)

(Verse 2)
it's been sumn like 20 years them niggas dont switch gears...can i grab the wheel and show yall how to ride this , bite this im venomous python i hiss , potent  poison i spit , social misfit dont fit 
who killed the game i did..(i did , yeah) you wouldnt want the smoke cause you would need some seratonin 
 if you're coming at a nigga it's my demons youre provoking
i been wrapping raps around em like a turban
and i gotta put the work-in... 
they all undermining my worth and i think in they heads  it's gon bring me down...
cause im way too different go harder than niggas , i know they gon say
 they dont like my style or the way i sound..
i should cut the puns and the metaphors
i should dim it down do it for the crowd..i will be renowned
dancing with the stars
 (support they f*ng fasad!)

(Verse 3)
Niggas got a lotta nerve...going to the studio
(haha) spitting all the jokes they be tickling my funny bone , hysterical! how i step in the booth then they catapult , 
they gon give an excuse...like i got an attitude 
but in all honesty they couldnt handle the truth..
 they couldnt handle the truth 
they're used to deluding the youth...
feel like they neck ina noose 
when i call them out for they bull..shi---
stop with the cap and take the offence if the shoes fit
now do this for rap and start educating the new kids..

Cap(tivate)

[Verse 1]
Early bird gets the fattest worm
if you snooze you lose..
the truth is cruel it's nothing new 
you just gotta take it and keep moving though
cause if you dwelling in the past gotcho head all in yo ass.. the growth journey is gon be difficult..
why you holding to things that already let go?
you can't keep building up shit that keeps falling like dominoes,  the heart goes cold and still like a mfn garden gnome...

( Hook)
If you gon choose to remove the blindfold
on your eyes you'll see the truth , if you deny
what lies inside , you are just as screwed
as the oblivious fool (if you'd rather stay blind to the truth you are just as screwed as the oblivious fool)


(Verse 2)
Ima tell it like it is 
im intolerant to sugarcoated lies and that's just how it is you see , man , white lies are a myth...how could you possibly appease a person with deceit and claim your heart is clean..
wanna know why you cant sleep? guilt , it's like a thief..how it creeps to shackle you in chains til you're deceased , that's how the verse "the truth will set you free" came about.. and know that peace of mind is guaranteed if you avow , look--


(Hook)
If you gon choose to remove the blindfold on your eyes you'll see the truth..
(movie audio clip)

(Verse 3)
How soon we forget , a truth that is told with malicious intent , can overthrow the fables that one can invent.. you should think about it. I mean we gotta admit that we live amidst a Gen that commends the counterfeit over the real.. guess that's prolly why our prolems piling , we derive our sense of self through social comparison and wonder why we lack we confidence 
this shit is gon get outta hand if--

( Hook)
If you gon choose to remove the blindfold
on your eyes you'll see the truth , if you deny
what lies inside , you are just as screwed
as the oblivious fool (if you'd rather stay blind to the truth you're just as screwed as the oblivious fool)

(Verse 4)

Moral of the story , there's  more to what the eye meets 
dont stay blind truth to the if you been peep
the measure of intelligence is knowing when to change ,
 if you dont improve your life will be in utter disarray , im saying..
consider this a series of epiphanies and something like a remedy to some of your uncertainties 
if you aint had a clue
well now you do nigga you best believe
and dont forget the truth will set you free
if you avow , it's Li.


Epiphany

[Intro]
id say im rather..evasive
id say im rather...evasive

[Verse 1]
Okay now..
Im just tryna protect my soul
Im not scared love aint dead
and you should know...
but then again you never really know
i tend to say these words outta lack of trust
cause friends turn into foe
it is crazy how they never choose the real over the faux...i can't seem to wrap my head around the fact that i been called cold hearted
and a little bit dishonest (scoffs) that i come off as someone toxic ,
 i shake it off cause they dont get it...
feeble minds attempt to decipher me but i am cryptic , they wanna know what lies within me
cause my aura glistens...like a mystery box..
and yet i still remain unsolved like a case that flopped (cold-case)
i cage my true thoughts these emotions imprisoned..and i sleep it all off s'y the pain is embedded...deep within my limbic sytem 
i gave yall a clue or better yet a piece of me so call this piece a triptych... 
see--

[Hook]
Im just tryna protect my soul
Im not scared love aint dead
and you should know...
but then again you never really know
if it's genuine or standing in the way of your growth
but Im just tryna protect my soul
Im not scared love aint dead
and you should know...
but then again you never really know
if it's genuine or standing in the way of your growth

[Bridge]
I can be a little bit indecisive..
i come off as somebody that is nonchalant..
and i appear to be... truculent and evasive
but i promise that  i do not mean no harm 
I mean can be a little bit indecisive..
i come off as somebody that is nonchalant..
i kno i come across as bitter-sweet & inconstant 
but i promise that  i do not mean no harm..

[Verse 2]
Im not non-committal man im just simply guarded
cause nowadays relations superficial, 
my head is on a swivel my heart has hardened.. 
and since i had an epiphany
im something like Jeremy with a hawkeye im reading yall energy and i peep the bullshit
so i maneuver ina different way , it's safe to say
i don't delay when bad omens are on display
ian with the bullshit (scoffs) need i say again?
i see the smoke in mirrors it aint hard to fly the coop... either that i or just give yo ass the boot
i don't do no sequels...i could ditch you thru a text but that's barely lethal.. (aside)
but honestly speaking 
im set on self-development 
im in need of mental healing.. i can't use nobody
to get me thru my mess
 everybody got they demons
 ima focus on my health.. i can't play the savior (nah) cause last time i did tht shit?
everybody got saved but i ended up losing my shit
(that's crazy)

[Outro]
I can be a little bit indecisive
 i come off as somebody that is nonchalant 
i know i come across as bitter-sweet and inconstant but I promise that I do not mean no harm..

I'd say im rather...evasive..
(fades)


Rather...Evasive


I used to think i want you and
I used to think you want me
but i continuously fumbled to keep you around
to stay by my side 
and that right there? it was enough of a sign
for me to open my eyes
and look past the fantasies
to see what's in front of me
I put down the brush that i used to paint
these primary hues
 to irradiate your dark soul that i oh-so 
dearly tried to mold
i know red was the only colour that i shoulda seen
your presence came with a warning...
i had hopes you would change so 
i proceeded with no caution
 i nearly fell in deep , I've had alot to learn
i cant let history repeat....itself 
a sense of self...love compelled me to choose
me myself and i aint no compromising my integrity... the devil is a lie
 so i stopped letting him speak...
i could see through these surfaces so blame it on my discernment , the pain of realizing the truth , stung like an urchin , i cant stay any longer without no purpose... i cant give out all my essence when i know you're undeserving...
i could say alotta things but then i know that it aint worth it..

like a ship at sea without a rudder 
we had no direction 
the currents were low 
we couldnt work with one accord
 we're like a storm thats on and off
eventually i knew we'd lose connection.. (disconnect sound) damn..




hues (interlude)

might break the rules
to get to you
 got me actin new
out of the blue , im seeing you
can you be my truth-oh-oh-oh
what seems to be the matter
it seems to me that we could never ever be together..
with all this fussing
need robitussin..
it's like we're in the court of law
defending our defandants..
ohh... no...mmmhm
can we slow it down.. and
think before we speak..
we might say some things 
that , we dont even mean..
everytime we
try to conversate
we cant help but keep bumping heads 
cause our egos  in the way

[Chorus]
there is somethin bout you
it keeps pulling me back and it's reeling me in
it has me fiending for more of you
i still want to uncover you
somethin bout you
it keeps me back and it's reeling me in
it has me fiending for more of you
i want to uncover you

mmmh , mmhh
mentally , spiritually physically..you know what i mean? mentally , spiritually physically..you know what i mean?

yeah..
(fades)

empêtrée.mp3

[Verse 1]
Okay now , Im no Santa Claus that keeps on giving
but the way you hold me tightly
yeah i might be in a Christmas spirit
but you don't get it 
you don't listen
I could put a bunch above you
but i won't cause you are different
it's alot that you're missin'
I could take you to dimensions you ain't been , we'd create our own religion
stop swaying it's the distance...
that keeps getting in our way 
tell me if i gotta change
I-- could switch up the positions
do it with precision , go on make a quick decision
don't be difficult , turn off your defense mode
i'll ease up the tension , let me handle
let me handle with care...

(it's just way too many uncertainties)
(mmh...oh)

[Verse 2]
i don't wanna feel--
i don't wanna feel like im bothering you
see fighting for attention
makes me believe that what we have it isn't true make intentions clear
 cause now they misconstrued
 I'm afraid that pride has interfered and it's breaking every wall that we've built together where do we go from here?
 let go and pretend?
 like it was never real it's whatever
 we couldn't stomach the thought that it wasn't what it was 
what we made it to be...
it was make believe
 even if we're falling apart it's been the sweetest dream...

 (humming fades)
