1.	No King 02:08	lyrics	buy track
Wish I could find a better way For you I will stay and for you I will pray I never found my happiness I guess it's all lie Thought maybe I could find it hiding deep in your eyes Now I'm here all by myself, slits on wrist And I can't cry for help I hate myself Lost in this abyss I got hate inside my heart And it's pulling me down I guess I lost my crown I guess I lost my crown I'm No King I'm No King Said I'm no king It's okay It's okay I'm No King I'm No King Said I'm No King No King No King Said I'm No King
2.	#BLM 02:00	lyrics	buy track
I find it hard to sleep Day dreaming for some better days Need to find a way out Can't stand this fucking place Bodies buried in the back and they don't speak Left dead, no message, but I can't breathe And it's all lies on the TV Propagate our enemy Burning down my BLM sign Oh my Can't understand why You can't to see past the stories that's been built on these lies Won't lie Sometimes I stay up and I cry For all my people buried too young, tell me why? Trayvon was just a boy Emmet just a kid Tyre liked to skate Didn't have to wind up dead There's no end I won't say it again We can't stay and pretend This shit ain't getting better And it never has been Keep on the cameras and see What really lies beneath Shouldn't let these bastards speak fuck the police Every word is lies Can't figure out why They'd rather see us all dead Then give a moment of time give me a moment of time I'm still tryna make it right Still tryna make sense Of all this senseless death There's no end
3.	Friends (Interlude) 01:20	lyrics	buy track
You are the warmth that fight's the cold When I feel I'm all alone When my head is stuck in the past You me pull in, you bring me back You hold me close, you make it last You are the touch that woke me up The first one to show me love The first one to make me feel that I was enough And if you ever feel you're lost Grab your phone and hit me up Don't forget that you are loved Don't forget that you are loved
4.	Blessings 03:10	lyrics	buy track
Caught up in counting all of my blessings If it wasn't for momma I know my ass would be stressing I don't even know if this music would be a thing I'd probably be in the pen doing 10 to 15 I hope to see better for all of my family Stop chasing the checks, and treating brothers like they enemies We got the system on our back to keep us all down Need to pick each other up, need to keep you all around That's how we get around Gold chain Gold whip No cane No shit See me? Bye bitch Leave it No tip Fuck am I saying Leave you lame brained Too insane man Probably wish I stuck to the singing But this stage; main aye here to switch it all up You can keep the big bucks No really I don't give a fuck Dreams bigger than just being on the next list Always been playing chess So please go ahead check bitch Blessed in this life blessed by my wife blessed by the music that I bump through the night Blessed like a sneeze please pass it to me see Blessed when we smoke trees And ,now we rolling easy gotta find a better way to cope with today and try not to stray when you finally find your place yo I'm still switching lanes so take your time and fuck what they say
5.	Sleepless 04:11	lyrics	buy track
I will not say goodbye I lied a thousand times I've tried to keep you off my mind I get so messed up, I know Stumbling my way home Drunk and all alone Looking in the mirror I don't recognize the face Feel myself trapped and replaced by disgrace Hard to move on When the pressure's too strong But I don't swing wrong I only hits homeruns, aye still i find myself slipping tryna paint a picture of a live worth living got two beautiful kids It doesn't matter what they is or what they choose to be that's my seed see it's all the same to me And while we on subject I ain't seen enough love yet Maybe that's why I'm afraid to go public Ashamed of my name Or scared of the fame Afraid I might break And wind up a shame I got demons Tryna get my hands clean I wash and repeat it Screaming out for help when nobody seen it If this gets too much I guess I leave it I got demons Tryna get my hands clean I wash and repeat it Screaming out for help when nobody seen it If this gets too much I guess I leave it I will not say goodbye I lied a thousand times I've tried to keep you off my mind I get so messed up, I know Stumbling my way home Drunk and all alone I pick myself up I gotta be tough But deep down I know that it's just another bluff I wanna see love because I'm tired of the hate I'm tried of the pain I'm getting to the point where I think I might break And I don't know what that looks like Tryna make sure that I keep all of my moves right Tryna make sure that I keep on keeping on I gotta do it for own I gotta do it for my mom I gotta do it for wife These the two keep me right Always guide me through Make sure that I'll see another night A roof above my head A diamond in my bed Still l fight with the devil Cause he'd rather see me dead I'mma break this A young boy throwing down they say with no patience Keep your head up even if your hearts breaking Cause my heart is aching And I can't fucking take this I need to see changes But the ties worry 'bout their paycheck Them bitches fucking brainless Maybe billionaires would understand if they were paid less Maybe politics would give a fuck if it was they kids The shit that keeps me up at night, understand we need to change this I will not say goodbye I lied a thousand times I've tried to keep you off my mind I get so messed up, I know Stumbling my way home Drunk and all alone At the end of the day I'll always be me Acoustic guitar, dreaming far while playing Zelda on the TV An over-acheiver with something to prove I'll put my city on the map before my ass is through I'll take that bet all in Because I won't accept not making it in To the industry in this one life I'm givin' You never know these days where tomorrow will take you So love yourself, and manifest, that's when you're having the break through
