Get Over It

Just don’t know what to say
The way all treat each other today
Makes me sad, Makes me mad
Feel helpless its gotten so bad
What can we do? I know it’s nothing new
WORDT PARTS OF US, WE'RE SHOWING THEM
OLD WOUNDS, WE ALL REOPEN THEM
ONE DAY THE BAR, WE LOWERED IT
WHEN WILL WE ALL GET OVER IT?
Far from United States
The only thing we share is some kind of hate
Of how they live, how they think
Or how they love it all just stinks
Are we all so far gone
We’ll never get along?

The Struggle Continues

First thing in the morning, I stub my toe
I check my bank account, funds are getting low
I make a pot of coffee, I burn my fucking tongue
It’s 9 o’clock & I’m already fucking done
I'M NOT SEEKING BUT I'M ALWAYS MEETING
TROUBLE AT EVERY TURN
I DON'T MEAN TO BUT I ALWAYS SEEM TO
STRUGGLE WITH THE UNIVERSE
Leave the house, didn’t dress for the weather
Didn’t text when I got home, so I think that I upset her
I’m treading water, haven’t made it to the train
It’s still before noon & I’m hurtin’ in my brain
I’m over it, got nothing to show for it

You Better Work

Goodbye to who left you high & dry
Its time to care for you
So long to those who done you wrong
Make room for something new
Greetings to what tomorrow brings
Get out of your comfort zone
Hello to what you’ve never known
Its time for you to grow
BABY LET ME TELL YOU
DON'T LET IT OVERWHELM YOU
LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND YOU
YOU'VE GOT IT ALL INSIDE YOU
Seek help, be good to yourself
Something we all deserve
Shits rough & you want to be tough
Cool calm and reserved
Life goes fast, leave it in the past
Stick with what brings you joy
Don’t hold on to what’s already gone
Cause all that you’ll do is annoy
Its complicated
Not so painless
Theres no back door
You get what you pay for
Put the work in
Thats how you win

Out For Blood
02:43
|

Tell me something, help me understand
Just 'cause others can, it don't mean you cant
Those people up there, they're not your enemy
You say "It's not fair", I say "It ain't that easy"
CAN'T MAKE EVERYONE LIKE YOU
WHY ARE YOU OUT FOR BLOOD?
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU
WON'T DRAG YOU THROUGH THE MUD
YOU'RE PLAYING GAMES TO IMPRESS THE PLAYGROUND
THEN YOU KICK 'EM WHEN THEY'RE DOWN
What's the play here? What do you have in mind?
Sounds like you can't share & "Whats there's should be mine"
It gets you nowhere, tearing others down
You're still standing here, down on the ground

Now's The Time

Yeah it sucks, giving up
Try not to make a fuss
You better smarten up
Learn when to say enough
You’re burning out & you know
Put on a smile, put on a show
THE THINGS YOU'D RATHER LEFT UNSAID
THEY'RE ECHOING INSIDE YOUR HEAD
THE EMPTINESS YOU SEEK TO FILL
IT TAKES THE WORK, NOT JUST THE WILL
YESTERDAY'S GONE, SO NOW'S THE TIME
YOU'VE GOT YOURS & I'VE GOT MINE
MOST THINGS ARE OUT OF YOUR CONTROL
DON'T LET UNCERTAINTY TAKE HOLD
Do you really want to know?
Cause know that you’ll never know
What’s on the other side
if you’ve got too much pride
You wanna know? Then let it go
What’s the point?
Yeah so what’s it all mean?
If you’re running out, running out
Running out of steam

Be Decent

If non-belief is a luxury
But belief is lunacy
Where does that leave me?
BE DECENT
IT'S NOT A PROPHECY
BE DECENT
IF NOT FOR YOU BUT FOR ME
See I'm not trying to cause any trouble
Self-hatred keeps me humble
Every day another stumble
