Contrasting Hell
02:54

I try to draw the fine line between dealing & pain
But nothing feels right cause I’m always feeling this pain
Clock stops again it’s just laughing in my face
I wish it wasn’t like this I wish I could erase
All the memories we made all the time we spent
To far away to live but not to far to get
Up out of my head for good I’m just wishing you well
While I sit in silence in my contrasting hell

If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
Roaming on the sidelines tell me what to do
Brain left in my head man It's all been skewed
Imagine living life acting like you own the shit
Tell me everything you know about me how's your wit?
Nothing left in the streets for me i'm just another guy in a lame city
Nothing left in the streets for me i'm just another guy in a lame city
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
Running like a chicken with his head cut off
Lungs burning in my chest need a cough drop
See you taking all my shit bitch you're not me
Everything you do seems like a copy
Nothing left take a seat for me you're just another guy in a lame city
Nothing left take a seat for me you're just another guy in a lame city
Never let you go again nothing's right i'm seeing ten
All this blood i'm seeing red think its time to go to bed
All these people around me think know what I want
But they don't see the implication they're just on the hunt
Sick of all the racist fuck's getting in my face
Basing all their fucking shit as if i'm in their race
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it
If you want it then you can get it

Late nights sitting overthinking again
All these dumb thoughts in my head
Make me roll over in bed
I’m always down in defeat
I’m out of the loop
My friends are moving on there ain’t nothing I can do
I’m losing myself more everyday
I’m setting up all the plays & everything is in place
& nothing seemed so right in my stupid little head
You’re just so damn fucked I wish you were dead yeah
You see they wanna pull me down but I’m gonna let them get far
All these lies in my head
I can’t see I’m all scarred
Up in my face
Scratches in my eyes
Blurred images I can’t read between the lines
I see the world for what it is & not nothing else
Bunch of rich people bragging all about their wealth
Let’s make the rich even richer & buy their shit
Give them control of everything man it just makes me sick
So let me sit you down & tell you a bit about me
I grew up in the suburbs but there’s more to me you’ll see
I make shitty beats
I own a fucking brand
I look so put together but don’t really have a plan
I’m going with the flow & seeing where I lie
I don’t where I’m going but I will with time
It’s like I’m back where I was 4 years ago
Except I know more now I’d never stoop so low
Morals all gone but my spirits just fine
Went through my phase now I’m feeling so divine
Out all around looking for my prey
& You’ll never find me cause I’m M.I.A

Got a million different things on my mind
People come & then they go it’s all about your state of mind
Some people always think to doubt
What they don’t know about
Before they scream & shout (x2)
Can’t read another fucking headline
Everything’s alright everything is just fine
Once this was cool now it’s just another trend
I hope one day we can sit & make amends
If you don’t want to guess that’s fine
I don’t really ever wanna waste my time
On someone I want but doesn’t want me
Tell me what you think before you go & hug a tree
Piss this piss that piss off
Choose your words wisely
I’m not a fucking cop
I’m just lookin for your utmost respect
For some people that’s too much I guess
Nothing more I can do except laugh
as I sit in my little brown chair look at that
Oh you hit my up again oh that’s fine
I’ll wonder what will happen soon in the meantime
Got a million different things on my mind
People come & then they go it’s all about your state of mind
Some people always think to doubt
What they don’t know about
Before they scream & shout (x2)

Set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 (x2)
You get what you take nothing more nothing less
Strolling on the sidelines like you got something you should confess
So your powerless
Your feeling powerless
The thing about me & you were really fucking different
Your seeing nothing
You’re looking str8
Your falling off
Your stories fake
There’s not much I
Can really do
I’ll just sit here
I’ll wait for you to
Set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 (x2)
I wish you would fuck off but alas we’re here
Talking all this shit about me like I wouldn’t hear
Your fate is near
Your fucking fate is near
Enjoy the next couple days cause after that you’ll be in fear
You talk this shit
Tell all your friends
It’s not like I
Have much defense
It started off
As just as joke
Which fell flat
So hit the road
Set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 set it str8 (x2)

Crooked Grin

Tell me what you know
What you know about me
So I can testify
& you can learn how to be
& You already know
Everything is a lie
Now I’ve gotta go
Ran out of time
& you talk to me
With a crooked grin
Get out of my way
Don’t make me sin
(Don't make me sin)
Tank on the floor
Now I’m all out of gas
While I talk to you
Attitude with some sass
Yeah I don’t really know
How to deal with the pain
It’s all fucked up
Just a twisted a game
You play all day
No room for the work
That you need to do
Time to wipe the smirk
Say You feel real low
Yeah we all do too
You’re not special no
We’re all like you
(We're all like you)

Guess I’ve the time just to think more for myself
Yeah Guess I got the time just to focus on myself
Yeah I Guess I’ve the time just to think more myself
Yeah Guess I got the time just to focus on myself
Hi I’ve got free time
For for the first got a little me time
Looking all around for the sea signs
That doesn’t mean much I need rhymes yeah
Don’t really know what to do
So much chaos to be ensued
I got nothing going on this or next week
Got some new beats make em real unique
Yeah
Gotta get down to it
Sit on down record a track remove it
From the song because it sounds like shit
All this free time make me lose my wit
All my songs are fucking trash
I’ve been smoking too much grass
Thoughts pull me down picking up my mass
What is these thoughts are my very last
Nah that’s not the case
Everyone gots some shit to face
Sometimes you just gotta find your space
Soon everything will fall in place
(drum breakdown)
Guess I’ve the time just to think more for myself
Yeah Guess I got the time just to focus on myself
Yeah I Guess I’ve the time just to think more myself
Yeah Guess I got the time just to focus on myself

Guessing looking for the time
I’m looking around searching rooms just for a sign
Used in be in my head gettin out of that shit
Focused on better things like making sounds & gettin fit like
I can’t believe I’ve never felt this way
the time passed me it took awhile but that’s okay
Cause I’ve got shit to do
Worst case scenario I walk up with the flu yeah
Four winters had me feeling all depressed it just one good one to take away the stress got my family on one side & music on the other
Took me 20 years but I finally have a brother
& I just wanna show him how to act like me
Dress cool make songs maybe drink some green tea
& I’ll do anything for my F A MILY
I wasn’t there at first but now I’m in a fantasy like that
It took a little time that’s fine
I got everything I want & I’m in first in line
I got syd dar dez & Angelo
& I’m never going back to a time when I was so low
Freakshow guess it really went well
Used to sit up in my head & overthink & dwell
I’m not gonna do that dumbshit no more
I’m not falling victim to depression that whore
Took enough from me & i'm sick of it
I got the choice to leave pop it out like a zit
Because the universe listens & that’s a fact
But it’s all up to you if your healths intact
Well
It took awhile but doing alright & I just can't keep it in no more I’m just oozing excitement
Cause I got it to live for
& so do you
It took a little time that’s fine
I got everything I want & I’m in first in line
I got syd dar dez & Angelo
& I’m never going back to a time when I was so low
