It seems to me that we are not alright, But I'll still put up a fight, alright it's slightly worse than I thought, and yeah maybe you're right, that I'm just not, as thoughtful as you want, But I stayed up all night, just watching the phone and hoping you would come home. But oh now, you don't have no one to call when you get lonely, so you just pick up the phone and call me, and you expect me to just call you baby, but lately I've been thinkin' that just maybe I'll switch it up I want you, but you've got way too much attitude, I want you, but yeah you're way too rude, just thought you would like to know the truth, that I'd wish you, I'd say good luck but instead fuck you! Yeah fuck you, take one more step and I'll lose my cool. Who made you, and why do you get to make the rules. We assumed, and that's what made us fools. You miss me but I can't decide if I miss you. But when we wake up, I hope we make up, cuz I can't fill the space you took up. x3 But when we wake up, I hope we break up, cuz I'm so sick of the space you take up!

If ever there was a description, for my minds affliction. I can't arise to the. You think with your mind I think with my, complacent nature. Good people say I hate you. And that I've got a... But did you think, that we'd go on forever and of late, everything's felt fake. Well and you're great, but my minds gone a different direction. Thought process vague, and I'm a drag, even my mom think's I'm lame. And you can be like me, I'm into everything I see, and it's unlikely, that I will decline lightly. But did you think, that we'd go on forever and of late, everything's felt fake. Well and you're great, but my minds gone a different direction, thought process vague, and I'm a drag, even my mom thinks I'm lame.

In Time 03:06
Hold on there's a landslide, there's no time to fear for the red tide, just close your eyes, and get ready for the ride of your life in the darkness, you feel this whimsical bliss, yeah ignorance is, a choice but you won't stop, you can't stop you need to unlock, these doors that are blocked. And ohh, there's only one thing we know, and there's only one place we go, when we need to feel like we are home Woah Woah Woah No, you wore us down and it shows, just close your eyes and let it go, lose your mind and you can take control But there's a mother fucking war on! for your mind, in time you'll see the line that divides, the wrong from the right and darkness from light, they'll tell you you're wrong and to give up... Give up this fight, and push it to the back of your mind oh but and in time, in time you'll see that. Ohh... In their silence there is gold, and all debate has unfurled, a means to spread hate all across this world, Woah Woah Woah No.. you've worn us down and it shows, just close your eyes and let it go. lose you mind and you can take control

Inconsistent 02:14
Before you change your mind, it's not that I did not try to imply, that I could not face this but it's more along the lines, of can we erase this but then... You tell me that I've been distant, and getting in...consistent again, still refrain, from feeling sorry, cuz I too find myself appalling. Time does seem to fly by, when you're around but can I, confess a lie, I know you'll resent me but then. You tell that I'm indifferent, and a fading loves... the only constant, still refrain, from feeling sorry, 'cause without your help I would still come crawling... But then, you tell that I've been distant, and getting in...consistent again, still refrain, from feeling sorry, cuz I too find myself appalling.

There's just this one thing I.. have on my mind like ah.. all of the time I ah.. smoke it to unwind I ah.. when I think I'm kinda high but.. well sitting in the smoke I, What I need to know, am I gonna be safe to roll one tomorrow, Gotta hit a different city just see what I find, shit gotta a little outta hand last time every place seems the same, it twists my mind, it's peace I just can't seem to find But who knows? not me, no! But I guess we'll see. But if one thing's for certain my eyes they keep burnin' been up all night just thinking about my rights, to think about it I know what's implied, I can't say we'll all be fine...Oh no Why can't you live and let live? I just want to fly, and be alright, tonight's the time to soar so high, cuz I'm feeling these vibes and here comes the tide but if there's just this one thing, to end all the suffering, and the injustice it brings, but again I'm just thinking or am I out of my mind? Gotta hit a different city just to see what I find, shit gotta a little out of hand last time every place seems the same it twists my mind, it's peace I just can't seem to find. Who know's? Not me, no. But I guess we'll see. But if one thing's for certain my eyes they keep burnin' been up all night just thinking about my rights, to think about it I know what's implied, I can't say we'll all be fine... Why can't, why can't you? Why can't you live and let live? Rap God Gotta hit a different city just to see what I find, shit gotta a little out of hand last time every place seem the same it twists my mind, it's peace I just can't seem to find. But if one things for certain my eyes they keep burnin' been up all night just thinking about my rights, to think about it I know what implied, I can't say we'll all be fine... Why can't you live and let live?
