Atmosphere - Fishing Blues Lyrics
Like A Fire
Eyes pouring on a rug made of dogs playing poker
Shoulda never let me cross your border
Sock full of quarters, launched on a corner
Not too high but I'm not too sober
I filled it up just to spill the cup
Better fix your bridges, they still corrupt
My dreams are vivid, I don't wish for wishes
You know nobody that beats the business
And I don't even miss when it was all so simple
Sick off the vino, kicking out the window
Sometimes life's like the card game war
Hide a couple knives in the silverware drawer
Loot like a Compton deploy of troops
Got heavy artillery shootin' from the rooftop
She can't see me when I move through the nuance
What, so what, so what you want, huh?
Run wild like a man on fire
Get live like a roof on fire
Make love like a world on fire
Burn out like a fire
Run wild like a man on fire
Get live like a roof on fire
Make love like a world on fire
Burn out like a fire
I figured out that you're fraudulent
I hope you feel that that's a compliment
Cause you've been hollering the phony rhetoric for a minute
We outta give you a ribbon for the commitment
It's no squabble, salute, I raise my bottle
To the fact that you found a few fools who would follow
We live for the now cause there ain't no tomorrow
But my mixtape still needs an outro
And you can mark these words with a Sharpie
We make party as long as there's a heartbeat
I'm like a Harley, you're like a Hardly
Get behind me say "mmm can't harm me"
I'm not scared of the flood, squaring up
When Armageddon come, I turn the stereo up
Making love in the back of an American truck
Bust a nut, jump up and hit the airhorn button, what?
Run wild like a man on fire
Get live like a roof on fire
Make love like a world on fire
Burn out like a fire
Run wild like a man on fire
Get live like a roof on fire
Make love like a world on fire
Burn out like a fire

Ringo
I think I'm still drunk from last night
I woke up in a lawn chair
I feel faint like an old ass flashlight
I don't remember how I got there
Waiting at the train stop
Hoping that the rain stop
The pain throbs at the front of the skull
I should have took the day off
Took it for a pay off
The brainwash is insufferable
I'm on purpose, coffee in a thermos
Squint like Clint tryna spot me in the cursive
Missing persons, lost in your costumes
Blood, moon and a boombox full of volume
If I had the authority I would probably
Make everybody throw they're hands in the sky
And everything I said in this song would be classified
And all of y'all would be captured alive
I might've showed up when the party start
I might've got high with your bodyguard
I might've passed out at the airport bar
Everybody wanna see a falling star
I might've thrown up in a rental car
I might've woke up in a reservoir
I might've got robbed at Mardi Gras
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Once upon a time in the next few days
I gotta wake up and get out of the shade
I might put on a beat down pair of Chucks
My old swimming trunks
And Amir says nothing in my earbuds
Just me and my beer gut
I absorb it before I get deported back to orbit
Over the winter I remain indoors
I want the summer in my city to feel like a rain forest
And you know we should skinny dip
In the middle of the Mississip
Do a couple of spins and shit, synchronicity flips
A three-sixty finish, Twin Cities bitch
And I don't care 'bout what y'all think
Dressed up like a cop, stuck up the bank
The police came in some Russian tanks
And I'm in jail with nothing to drink
I might've showed up when the party start
I might've got high with your bodyguard
I might've passed out at the airport bar
Everybody wanna see a falling star
I might've thrown up in a rental car
I might've woke up in a reservoir
I might've got robbed at Mardi Gras
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
I want a smack machine on the party bus
Your flag is green, in God we trust
You were born in sin, we were born in debt
I guess this is about as feel good as it gets
I want Wonderbread wrapped in rubber bands
It's not too much to understand
I wanna color the world but only got one Crayon
Reach for the sky, try to touch my hand
I might've showed up when the party start
I might've got high with your bodyguard
I might've passed out at the airport bar
Everybody wanna see a falling star
I might've thrown up in a rental car
I might've woke up in a reservoir
I might've got robbed at Mardi Gras
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star
Everybody wanna see a falling star

Besos
One up
Never still if the sun up
It's all love until the gubs see you come up
It's like a jungle never know what's gonna run up
We just wanna live forever with the thumbs up
Barcelona, no stops got the bump up
Smart phone in case the cops pull the gun up
Artichoke, heart's soft, my thug tough
Garçon, bring a cup of that young drunk
I ain't ya boy baby, you got me f*cked up
Wait, let me state it plainly
Shut the f*ck up
Trust don't occupy space with dumb luck
Hush, fuzz got the tour bus bugged up
Shh..
Dirty like the wheels on a dump truck
Birds snuck through the security with nun chucks
Adrenaline rush, the whole party jump up
I flood nut on her sponge butt
It goes people people
I love the way you love the people people
People people
I love the way you love the people people
People people
I love the way you love the people people
People
From everywhere gather around
Uh uh
Now, too playa, too clean for spoons
Got a, routine cause I fiend for structure
But cha, shooting at the ring and the moon
Screaming, f*ck the world
Cause that girl don't love you
There's a few dreams to choose
But if they don't let you keep your shoe strings
They don't want you to suffer
And if you're blessed you can haunt each other
In a city of ghosts where the vultures flutter
Now, mood swings a convenient excuse
Seems there's gotta be something in the butter
Smother the fire before it gets discovered
One foot in the grave the other foot in the gutter
Uh, boosting any loose thing, if it ain't screwed down
It becomes pray to my hunger
I take it back to my underground bunker
Stay cool everybody, have an awesome summer
People people
I love the way you love the people people
People people
I love the way you love the people people
People people
I love the way you love the people people
People from everywhere gather around
Uh uh
Now
Bonus, me and my cojones
Hoping that you never treat me like I'm homeless
Unless it mean you about to see me with some donuts
Or
Dominate the nomination where your zone is
What you thinkin, it's the reason we're in show biz
Work like a clown with the squirt guns loaded
Only thing being worse than lonely is coke dick
Word got around, and now we call you blow fish
You was pissing in your own bowl of porridge
When I rode across the ocean on the back of a tortoise
Never see try to act like I'm gorgeous
Greasy mother f*cker make it party with the Socs
Tweet a picture of my penis to the POTUS
Roll my weed in the papers of some old eviction notice
Is the police came like a swarm of locusts
Hanky panky yanky doodle of America

Pure Evil
No, no, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no
I don't believe you
I don't believe you
No, no, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no
This is pure evil, this is pure evil
When I woke up this morning my
Only intention was to look in my reflection
With mutual respect, yeah
I know I'm more than just a badge and a weapon
But, when you see me comin'
You recognize my profession
You should believe that I'ma leave an impression
Even if it means I gotta put my knee on your neck, man
Was never meant for you to pass this test
The last question on the quiz is
What the f*ck'd you expect man?
A little money made him want some protection
Because a Manny with no money made the
Money feel threatened
And we accept there's gonna be some exceptions
But it's built on a connection of ownership and possessions
Baby boy you pay attention to them lessons
If you flexin' any teeth, I'ma send you to the dentist
It all depends on how you fit into my spectrum
From lectures, to handcuffs, to beat downs, to death wish
I was told to tell a one sided story, and that's why I had to eliminate your perspective
I was afraid for my death
I had to make an assessment
Ain't my day to be checked
I felt the weight on my chest
I was told to tell a one sided story
So, say a prayer cause this one's gone to Heaven
Innocence is a submissive position
It's a one-sided story
Read it to your children
No, no, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no
I don't believe you
I don't believe you
No, no, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no
This is pure evil, this is pure evil
No, no, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no

Perfect
Fall from the sky just to learn how to fly
Don't even gotta put me in the dirt when I die
I'm not perfect, I try
Tryna free my hands, grab the day by the throat
Gotta get a grip but I'm at the end of my rope
I'm not perfect, I know, I know
And if I had a spare moment
I'd probably loan it to somebody who needed to hold it
Life's indecisive, might slice you open
And show compassion and throw you back into the ocean
I'm tryna keep my faith on a path
But the landscape's full of danger flags
You can change your name and still live in the past
Daddy was the face on a package of zig-zags
Fall from the sky just to learn how to fly
Don't even gotta put me in the dirt when I die
I'm not perfect, I try, I try
You might fade away, you might burst in flames
Ain't no reason you should even try to search my name
I'm not perfect okay?
I'm a father and a son of a Southsider
Mouth full of hot dish, pop lifer
And this little piggy squealed like a cop's tire
When I set the AUX on fire like it's a box of spiders
You the opposite of truth, you overproduced
You gotta grow more toes, you wanna fill these shoes
You gotta make love like there's nothin' to lose
You wanna wake up the world but there's a button for snooze
Fall from the sky just to learn how to fly
Don't even gotta put me in the dirt when I die
I'm not perfect, I try, I try, I try
We gotta work it out cause I ain't turning around
The same person that I was when the curtains were down
I'm not perfect, what now? Huh, what now?
Some say that I pass, none say that I'm passive
White trash with a fraction of Blackness
My mathematics got Native blood too
But no matter where I stand, either way it's f*ck you
I've never been a victim of police harassment
And I knew what they seen when I turned job absent
Irish name, Scandinavian frame
I'm a Rubik's cube, I'm the American dream
Check it out
I'm a feminist, I'm also a misogynist
Spit like an arsonist, dick like an obelisk
And I promise if you ever hear me contradict myself
It's not a sign of the apocalypse
I've been an asshole before it was fashionable
And when it's out of style, I'll be the last to know
And if Illuminati listenin', I don't wanna plateau
Who I have to blow to play the halftime show, huh?
Fall from the sky just to learn how to fly
Don't even gotta put me in the dirt when I die
I'm not perfect, I try, Lord knows I try
On the day of death, may you deserve respect
Don't ever forget that it was worth your breath
I'm not perfect, not yet, not yet, not yet, not yet
I'm not perfect but I'm this, that and this

Seismic Waves
Armageddon started
I guess it wasn't that hard to miss
It didn't trip the alarm
On ya hybrid
Carbon footprint
The darts are rigged
And I'm a big fan of carbs
In the artist prints
There's a marginal risk
That ya cards won't hit
Its like tryna borrow
A barbecue rib, from a starving kid
Be thankful if ya stars are lit
Or ya might get caught
Between the Charmin and shit
The armor fits to stay outta harms grip
But karmas a bitch
So when your heartbeat quits
Consider all the death you've invested with
The shoes, the booze, the phone; that you textin with
Disrespecting gets second amendmented
But the species still seem to be trendin
From the friend zone all the way to the kremlin
The devil give a f*ck about a flag; or an emblem
Things ain't been the same since Treyvon, shit
Things ain't been the same since Reagan; wait
Ain't a single thing change from the days
When the gods went crazy
And broke the languages
We tryna make these payments
Ain't got the privileged to exhibit the patience
Gone next week so tonight we lye
With no lives to save
Seismic waves
I should jump back n kiss myself
But I've been workin on
Learning to resist myself
I used to think criticism
Was the definition
Fish swimmin' up a river
Full of pessimism
I wanna catch one; bare handed
Clean it; cook it
And feed it to Lazarus
All around the planets
The same as Minneapolis
Everybody lookin'
For a little love, and happiness
I don't romanticize the rain
And those drugs only hide the pain
Turn up the temperature
High as a plane with nine [?]
The tired be trained
And you keep Christoper Walken
With the shit that you're talkin
You can't take it with
If it don't fit in your coffin
As a kid, I didn't give it much thought then
Just wanted a mouth full of nipple
And a zippo; in my zipper pocket
I remember when the whole world
Stank like an ashtray; yeah
The good ol' days
I wanna laugh when somebody say
'The Good Ol' Days'
But they was good
Cause we did learn to look both ways
Across a road way
Like everything'll be okay
Before we go the f*ck away
Like a snowflake
Gone next week
But tonight;
I'm tryna reach those seismic
Climb those;
Seismic waves
I don't need another reason
Cause I'm leavin with you (with you)
I don't need another reason;
Cause I'm sleepin' with you
I don't need another reason
Cause I'm leaving with you
I don't need another reason;
Cause I'm sleepin' with you
I don't need another reason
Cause I'm leaving with you (with you)
I don't need another reason

Next To You
[deM atlaS:]
Darlin' you don't even know
I'm lyin' right next to you
Sometime I feel so alone
That I don't know what to do
I don't know why, I don't know why
(I said) I don't know why, I don't know why
I was out with my crew tonight
We were all gettin' super nice
I had so much to drink that you'd think
I'm 'bout to go and paint the bathroom sink... pink!
Rule number 1: always puke alone
The second rule is always puke at home
I guess it's time to go
Didn't see nobody from my family around
So I went outside to flag a taxi down
I told a cab to take 35 south and let the windows down
I got to air myself out
I put a new piece of gum in my mouth
As the car pulled up right in front of the house
And all that I can think about is how much I love f*cking you
I can't wait to get inside
But I never considered that you'd be fast to sleep
And now I'm masturbating with some vaseline
And...
[deM atlaS:]
Darlin' you don't even know
I'm lyin' right next to you
Sometime I feel so alone
That I don't know what to do
I don't know why, I don't know why
(I said) I don't know why, I don't know why
I'd love to press my face into the flesh
In between your pregnant breasts
I'd love to squeeze your butt and make you horny
But I know you gotta wake up in the morning
So Imma just lay next to you
And think about when I make sex to you
It probably sound kinda perverted, I imagine
But that ain't enough to make me wanna curb my enthusiasm
It feels so right in my left
And I don't think she protest if I don't leave a mess
I disappear into the smell of your hair
And it's becoming apparent that I'm becoming coherent
With my mind on my business, fist full of carnal
Blurry with the vision I'm spinnin' like a marble
Fade to black way under the shellac
Can't fap, too wasted
If you was awake you'd laugh
And...
[deM atlaS:]
Darlin' you don't even know
I'm lyin' right next to you
Sometime I feel so alone
That I don't know what to do
I don't know why, I don't know why
(I said) I don't know why, I don't know why

The Shit That Weve Been Through
Seven in the morning, locked the door
Put the keys in my bag, next to my passport
Feels like I'm headed towards war
Trying to pretend that I remember
What we're fighting for
You're upstairs, passed out asleep
While I'm on the front step
Staring at the street
Patiently wait for my taxi
Come save me and take me away from reality
The car pulled up at dawn
I put the seat belt on, everything felt wrong
Stubborn ain't the same as strong
But try to tell that to the
Queen that the king rides on
Took a look before I hit the road
Your silhouette didn't show up in the window
Well alright then, it's alright then
But something's missing
Girl, I miss you, but I wish you could, would
Look, all of this becomes the shit
That we've been through
Girl, I miss you, but I wish you could, would
Look, all of this becomes the shit
That we've been through
When it goes straight to voicemail
You might as well tell me go straight to hell
Ain't nothing new, just suffering through
And that's something
I've become accustomed to
But I'm in love with you, passion born
Like a resource torn from a planet's core
Stole my crown just to examine the thorns
Scatter 'em around on the bathroom floor
A little ink, with a kiss and a wink
But the bigger the stink
The stiffer the drink
And I think this fight started in a past life
Got you sitting on the dark side of the gaslight
Pick up your phone before my plane departs
I'm trying to make a mark in
The shape of a heart
Well alright then, we alright then
But something's missing
Girl, I miss you, but I wish you could, would
Look, all of this becomes the shit
That we've been through
Girl, I miss you, but I wish you could, would
Look, all of this becomes the shit
That we've been through
Girl, I miss you, but I wish you could, would
Look, all of this becomes the shit
That we've been through
Girl, I miss you, but I wish you
The shit that we've been through

When The Lights Go Out
Do you remember that knife you wouldn't part with?
You kept it sharp just to carve my f*ckin' heart like a park bench
Well I found it this morning in a Southside bus stop
And I'm smiling for this mugshot
That's when I knew the plan was bound to fail
By the time you hear the song I'll be singing it from down at the county jail
Still filled to the maximum, so f*ck Bill Clinton with his saxophone
And cut, I'm trying to follow a lit fuse
I must have missed a day's allowance of fish food
Like who's tit do you think that this is dude?
She ain't your bitch to misuse
And when there ain't nothing more to grab
I might give something back to the floor of this cab
I might tag my name on the door of your building
Might even make a couple of your children
When all the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out
(One, two)
Click is when they go in, we keeps it flowin'
Wrote this poem from a swollen place of deep knowin'
Winter showin', we scared of the dark as night approaches
Until a time comes, some run like roaches
Stop, drop, pop a slug out the mag
Tag, thug it out, brag, hold on to your bug out bag
When he's out on tour [?] and the drink go down
Grab your girl, he might arouse her, yowzers
What dreams may come
Some plot and scheme on the scene, he play dumb
From the load out, true emissarie who forever ready
Ask your secretary 'bout the melonberry
It's elementary, fedora or the ski hat
Draws or Dungaree slacks, where you gonna be at?
Don't repeat that, she ain't the type no doubt
If she wanna eat it's goin' right in her mouth
When all the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out
When all the lights go out
When the lights go out

No Biggie
She said no biggie
Territorial enough to try to build a wall around the whole city
Make it pretty with some Deutsch graffiti
Got a ex tattooed underneath the bikini
She was encyclopedia thick
She got a fanbase, everybody speak with a fist
And you can think about her 'til the heartbeat skips
Make sure you got the name up on the marquee big
I got such a bad feeling
The last time you heard me say that, we were burnt alive
Roadkill on the grill, gas turned up high
Stepped off the patio with the courage to fly
We all wanna find a bridge to the upside
While you pretend to be dead on the inside
Take a photo with the number one loser
Trying to get used to living in the future
Years ago you were a different you
Attitude of a hot bowl of cat food
Opened it up like, yeah motherf*cker so what?
We all grow up, what happened to you, what's the holdup?
Throw your nose up bourgeoise character
Trying to claim careless wearing an air freshener
You blow a lot of stink, I promise
You're not bold enough to take your mask off in the populace
So make believe, you ain't what you claim to be
It's obvious painfully
Why you wanna play games with me?
I'm nobody act like you ain't plainly see
She only hears so she can hear you cry
I'm trying to cherish life, you're trying to steer on ice
I wanna put my DNA in your American pie
There's no life after death, I'm not ready to die
When I was younger, I didn't think that I would live for as long
When I was younger, I didn't think that I would live for as long
When I was younger, I didn't think that I would live for as long as I've been living it

Everything
When I was younger, I didn't think that I would live
For as long as I've been living it
And I ain't saying I expected to die
Before that number got high
Just never deliberately considered it
Go figure it
Who'd known [that] I'd 'a had so many kids
And the first one's grown n' doesn't answer his phone
The third sun from the stone
Got me supposing
I'm supposed to focus
On keeping this home
Outta foreclosure
From all four corners
Feels like I'm riding on an old rollercoaster
The ghost of Christmas sober
Mostly, but I'mma overdose
On these four leaf clovers
You can dance like a crash survivor
You can laugh or cry
Whatever pacifies you
Funny how time flies
To my family sets my raft on fire
I don't pretend to be cool, don't pretend to be young
I don't pretend to be smart, don't pretend to be dumb
I don't pretend to be hard, don't pretend to be first
And most of all I don't pretend to be concerned
I don't pretend to be rich, don't pretend to be broke
I don't pretend to be asleep, don't pretend to be woke
I don't pretend to be deep, don't pretend to be clean
I'm everything and everything that's in between
They said you only get one life
But I lived at least four lives in the life I'm living in now
And if I could handwrite what they say when I'm gone
It's that he's said everything that he could fit in his mouth
I got the coldest shoulder in the solar system
I know because I drove around this whole existence
Resistance to personal growth seems suspicious
What, you really didn't want to go the distance
I don't stand still, wander off, I'm a drifter
Look at the bigger digital panoramic picture
You catch a panic attack from try'na handle the facts
You inanimate on a map
Wait though, I'll never be finished, infinity
Grateful for every opportunity you've given me
And when the time's right, y'all can lighten up
Like there's too much life to love
I don't pretend to be cool, don't pretend to be young
I don't pretend to be smart, don't pretend to be dumb
I don't pretend to be hard, don't pretend to be first
And most of all I don't pretend to be concerned
I don't pretend to be rich, don't pretend to be broke
I don't pretend to be asleep, don't pretend to be woke
I don't pretend to be deep, don't pretend to be clean
I'm everything and everything that's in between

Chasing New York
I used to be in love with Brooklyn
Way before I ever got to go to Brooklyn
And I really enjoyed the first time I stayed there
But disappointed about how clean them trains were
Spray paint to debate the claim
But she say "the fake fur don't taste the same"
But your chips on your church and save your place
But first make sure that that's the ace of spades, huh
You know you got it made in the fade
When the worst case scenario's a big bowl of cereal
I tried to state my case to the stewardess
To let me take the steering wheel, but they don't hear me though
I know that I could fly this bitch and if the bitch don't fly I'll build a pirate ship
And when the bottle tips, the model hits the ground
But they love you whenever you're around
You know, still got a long way to go
But I ain't the only one to put it all on the road
You know, grow up just to take up space
We don't need an excuse to chase what we chase
Still got a long way to go
But I ain't the only one to put it all on the road
You know, judge us on the love that we make
We don't need an excuse to chase what we chase
But the frame didn't fall when the mirror broke
I can't recall what life was like a year ago
Spit it on the front row, disappear, I'm ghost
Call me Smokey like I'm rolling with some miracles (coals)
I got a yard full of love, it grows like a garden with guards to guard it
Around the same time that this party started
We was on the red carpet with artist access
Shooting down garbage for target practice
Martians living in the margin
Imagine the clean streets and the dirty police
We tryna keep the peace while disturbin' the peace
You know, hitchhike to the mountain's top
To take a picture of the peak that surrounds your thoughts
And my favorite spot to catch a drink still be down the block
From wherever you sleep
You know, still got a long way to go
But I ain't the only one to put it all on the road
You know, grow up just to take up space
We don't need an excuse to chase what we chase
Still got a long way to go
But I ain't the only one to put it all on the road
You know, judge us on the love that we make
We don't need an excuse to chase what we chase
All these days are numbered
Falling forward, failing upwards
All these roads to Eden
Maps to nowhere, cold to breathe in
All these days are numbered
Falling forward, failing upwards
All these roads to Eden
Maps to nowhere, cold to breathe in
All these days are numbered
Falling forward, failing upwards
All these roads to Eden
Maps to nowhere, cold to breathe in
All these days are numbered
Falling forward, failing upwards
All these roads to Eden
Maps to nowhere, it's cold
If your hands get free, abandon ship
Uhm I think parrots are danky

Sugar
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You so, you so
Tell me, have you ever been addicted to somebody
Still functioning within the melancholy
Baby's mommy got me raw like a zombie
Prolly won't stop until she murder me softly
Vanity is such a popular scene
We could build a family out of the crop of the cream
It's you plus me, we followin' dreams
So why we treat each other like we on the opposite teams, huh?
And I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say
I'm trying to play without my poker face
I put the joker in a shoulder holster
Underneath the floor in a hole
And I'ma save it for a stormy day
And if the clouds break tint
The sun will brush it off like it's all made of lint
Silly you, gimme kiss, never say you never gave me nothing
Cause you gave me shit
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You so, you so
You're such a sweet thing
You're so mean to me & me & me
You're such a sweet thing
You so, you so
Sometimes I wonder if you're f*cking with my head
Some kinda monster living underneath the bed
But forever I'ma ride with you, one hundred percent
Even when I never fully understand whatever you said
Feels like I'm looking at something, painful
A little illustration of an angel
You're like a tattoo that's on my eyeball
I'm blind from the shine of your halo
Girl, my imagination is the busiest
Why you trying to match wits with an idiot?
Passion is the measuring stick
We qualify, we set the world on fire
Just to burn up all the pretty shit
I promise you, that I'm accountable
Probably trying to prove, our love
That it's possible
Now paint a portrait of complaints
But when it makes a mess, confess the stains
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You so, you so
You're such a sweet thing
You're so mean to me & me & me
You're such a sweet thing
You so, You so
It must be the devil when I taste her sweat
It's the sweetest
Might forfeit just to reach an agreement
Throw the fight and then I'll hold you tight
Poke a hole in the lid so we don't suffocate and choke tonight
I know I prolly ain't right
But I'm just right
We thug life for the love life
And look at where we took it
But you ain't have to cook it for me
Sugar ain't good for me
Sugar ain't
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You're such a sweet thing
You so, you so
You're such a sweet thing
You're so mean to me & me & me
You're such a sweet thing
You so, you so
You such a, you such a
You so, you so
You such a you such a
You so, you so

Fishing Blues
I realize that we ain't the same
But you might appreciate it if I try to explain
While I'm sitting in the middle of a lake
Gotta find a fish to come and nibble on the bait
I'mma set the stage for the challenge
I'mma meditate just for practice
I'mma concentrate on my balance
I'mma contemplate on this canvas
I'mma bandit running with a stolen moment
The careful arrow, narrow focus
Gotta roll with both eyes open
Quality of life feels like I'm floating
Trying to make this minute stretch
Cause whats in my face is so picturesque
I mean, it even made me quit the cigarettes
I mean, shit I guess I got a fish to catch
Just like an answered calling
When I drop this line in the water
Keep fishing man with a vision
Look brother I saw the future
Look past I'll draw it for you
Strong words of an old soul
"Don't rock my boat" I told them
Reel em' in throw em' back slow
Everything looks clear in hindsight
If you can adjust to the twilight
Trying to live enough life to last a lifetime
Roll with the ride like I'm supposed to survive
How you know that you alive?
If you ain't fighting for a mouthful of future?
This ain't business as usual, check the tackle
Box full of beautiful, look like shrapnel
Break the cycle and the old mistakes
But the boat obeys the waves
And then the little fish spoke as it broke away
It said, "Know limits, but know with a 'K'"
Yesterday's catch will cook tomorrow
Right now I gotta do what I gotta
Took a time out from the human drama
Put my line in the water now who wanna holler?
Just like an answered calling
When I drop this line in the water
Keep fishing man with a vision
Look brother I saw the future
Look past I'll draw it for you
Strong words of an old soul
"Don't rock my boat" I told them
Reel em' in throw em' back slow
Just like an answered calling
When I drop this line in the water
Keep fishing man with a vision
Look brother I saw the future
Look past I'll draw it for you
Strong words of an old soul
"Don't rock my boat" I told them
Reel em' in throw em' back slow

Wont Look Back
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
First love
Who was your first love?
And I ain't talking about your first crush
I'm referring to the first one that'll make you wanna curl up
Or get you worked up enough to
Try and burn the world up
And I don't care about your regrets
You can keep those secrets to death
I don't need to know what you speak underneath each breath
But we learning, how to read what's in between the text
And when you feel like enough was felt
If you ain't trying to eat another helping of hell
That's when you tell farewell to that well you fell down
Fall out the frame, take care of yourself now
It's no thang, come out of the cold rain
Make giant steps, gotta catch the cold train
Everybody wishin' on some better days
Don't let the storm door hit ya
And don't ever change
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Second guess your own instinct
Probably best to just listen and think
And don't expect anything less than the kitchen sink
It feel like you're still trying to lead a horse to drink
And I don't dig dramatic
But it was signal static
When the thunder struck
It doesn't matter how much clean the vulture up
It never look like a dove
You still gave it your blood
And that's love
I never hated your guts
I never even understood where that phrase was from
But why would you believe that I could trust your touch
If you would never make me wanna sleep in my truck
It's more than a drug
It's more than any liquor you could pour from a jug
Trying to find a little normal on the bus with the windows cracked
It's why we don't look back
It's why we won't be back
Right?
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Third time's the charm
You've heard that before
Display the scar
You've earned that at war
Turnt on alarm, a guard at the door
But ripped out the heart, was par for the course
But if the furnace doesn't burn at the core
Maybe your purpose ain't to learn anymore
Dinosaur can't soar if he trying to snore
And ain't nobody leaving with a perfect score, on the board
But we never got bored of the wind
The memory of how it tore through the skin
By the end of the week it's going to weaken
Pinned in between depend and discipline
Can't nobody judge
But we can pretend, we got it all figured out
No questions left, when the truth is
We never even move one step
Just do it all over again and again
And again
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past
Any way that the cold wind blows
I'll go cause you're in my home
Be leaving and I won't look back
Gone with my life, I can't save my past

Anybody That Ive Known
In my past
I'd wish for something different from what's within my grasp
Now I've grown
I wouldn't trade my world with anybody that I've known
As a child
I'd try to find a way to be okay with how I smile
Now I've grown
I wouldn't trade my world with anybody that I've known
Anybody that I've known
Look at my face
So many miles I can't complain
I won't complain, I don't complain
I might complain, but still told the truth
My water stay running, but my food don't move
I make a size twelve footprint
Make love to my wife, make music with my real friends
My voice make enough noise for the books
Then I hunt these woods to catch dinner for my children
Got me dreaming I could reach through the phone
And kiss the family good night then sleep like a stone
Hotel, motel, feel at home if you play a little Nina Simone
Don't quit your day job, this is my day job
It won't stop a single raindrop
I gotta get money to purchase a space pod
Then fly up to heaven in person and thank God
In my past
I'd wish for something different from what's within my grasp
Now I've grown
I wouldn't trade my world with anybody that I've known
As a child
I'd try to find a way to be okay with how I smile
Now I've grown
I wouldn't trade my world with anybody that I've known
Anybody that I've known
I'm all about the sarcasm and optimism
I'm kinda like a bumper sticker
Listen, you're kinda like an artist, you got the vision
Looking at the mirror like it's competition
And it's always trippin', but you're not intimidated
We all tryna stay alive and innovative
Everybody aiming at the face of similar limitations
We all cut from the same pavement
If you and I are gonna search through this universe together
First gotta desert the center
Some of us will be mad at the world forever
And some of us don't even curse the weather
Whether or not I gave it everything that I got
It won't stop a single raindrop
But when it finally wash my finger-paints off
I'm tryna make sure it don't spell my name wrong
In my past
I'd wish for something different from what's within my grasp
Now I've grown
I wouldn't trade my world with anybody that I've known
As a child
I'd try to find a way to be OK with how I smile
Now I've grown
I wouldn't trade my world with anybody that I've known
Anybody that I've known

Still Be Here
I didn't believe that I could have anything else to share
I mean that I knew I could help somewhere
But I never felt as bare as when I felt your stairs
What I'd give of thinking that I'm self-aware
We purposely search for what the purpose be
But the truth is I wasn't even present in the currently
I could've been a phone call for an emergency
From some hotel on Bourbon Street
I try to keep reminding my mind that was mine
It's just a asinine way to pass the time
Go, hold your kids before they grow too big
Like a minute is forever when a memory's a gift
Give this one to anyone:
No box, no lines made of dots
No labels or locks
Gotta brave through the pain that we're shaking it off
Shave with the crane, and aim for the top
I wanna give you the world like it was mine to share
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
You'll always have my words, I try to speak 'em clear
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
And if that don't work, I might be unprepared
But I'll still be here, I'll still be here
From the bad, to the worst, my love's sincere
Imma still be here, I'll still be
And I'll still be fascinated by the freedom of wings
I wanna know what you dream with no strings
Looking at shadows and the shapes on the ceiling
Make a little noise to communicate your feelings
I feel fortunate, I found fulfillment
I see my father in the faces of my children
I'm so vain that my heart's like a rooster
You make it hard to be afraid of the future
And when I hear you singing along
I remember that I'll never be alone again
Judge me on
What I depend upon
I want forever to spend with my fam' and my friends
And I'll still be guilty
Of challenging the people that balance and build me
That's why I'm speaking to you
And when you reach it too
You can pick up the pieces and see what it do
I wanna give you the world like it was mine to share
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
You'll always have my words, I try to speak 'em clear
I'll still be here, I'll still be here!
And if that don't work, I might be unprepared
But I'll still be here, I'll still be here
From the bad, to the worst, my love's sincere
I'mma still be here, I'll still be
And I ain't gonna front like I deserve your love
I'm still trying to learn to love
It's my long term ambition
But the burden burns so big you can't miss it
It was worth the tears
I want my verses to persevere
I don't need a souvenir to prove that I was here
'Cause ever since you appeared, it's been a happy new year
I wanna give you the world like it was mine to share
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
You'll always have my words, I try to speak 'em clear
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
And if that don't work, I might be unprepared
But I'll still be here, I'll still be here
From the bad, to the worst, my love's sincere
I'mma still be here, I'll still be

A Long Hello
Let's make a bonfire
I got a blanket in my trunk
One blanket, and we can wrap it around both of us
The lake is beautiful this time of night
I wanna listen to your breath while I look at the moon
Plus, plus I got you this solo priced ice latte, look at the stars
Check this out
There's far too many breakup songs
And there's not enough songs about the moment we met
A lot of words get spread to paint shame and regret
And I'm not holding my breath for any change to the sketch
But I hope to death, somebody came to sing about
Countless times that we found a way to even out
Even though we were born to work with these hands
It's in the plan for us to learn the Insecurity Dance
It goes:
Make a party as a method do prevent it
I'm so sorry you reacted so defensive
If I could land in unsolicited suggestion
Don't even know if I'd recommend that you paid attention
They told me Hell never felt so good
But I can tell that they're only trying to sell some books
Look, y'all know that I would help if I could
But I was too busy tryina nail myself to some wood
There's more songs praising the people we went to prison with
Then there are praising the people we make children with
And I ain't saying either one is more legitimate
But it'd be ridiculous to think that it's coincidence
Shit, I'll never be the best at this
I write songs that I'm living in, welcome to my sweatshirt
I think it's magnificent that you're presently present
Thank for listening, appreciate your effort
Cinderella, fit your hand in the glove
We're on a spaceship crash land from above
We're on a lazy river fly fishing for love
We're on a double barrel shotgun hunting for dove
Life is just a song; I hope that it's wrong?
It starts with hello and it goes till I die
If I did know it all, I'd at least attempt to clarify
Why we're tryina over emphasize the goodbyes?
We're tryina over emphasize the goodbyes
We always emphasize the goodbyes
So just pretend this is a long hello
So just pretend this is a long hello
You can pretend this is a long hello
