Wretched

I've had enough
The arrangement is making you a whore
and me, wretched
I want you to care for me
But you can't
So I’ll throw my songs into the ocean
And you’ll run through the forest naked
This won’t end like the movies do
But through this male gaze I seem to
See more than what’s really there
I feel more than you care
Poison replaces all my air
And I’m left here
on the ocean floor
on the ocean floor
on the ocean floor
But through this male gaze I seem to
See more than what’s really there
I feel more than you care
Poison replaces all my air
So I’ll throw my songs into the ocean
And you’ll run through the forest naked
This won’t end like the movies do
But through this male gaze I seem to
See more than what’s really there
I feel more than you care
Poison replaces all my air
So I’ll throw my songs into the ocean
And you’ll run through the forest naked
This won’t end like the movies do

Save Our Own Lives

I'm being eaten alive
By something I'm keeping inside
I think it wants me to die
Somebody please
Just help me breathe tonight
Alright
I’m sure it wants to take my life
I told you long ago
This story's getting so old
I can't get through to you at all
(So fucking cold)
I never wanted this
It was so arrogant
Of you to throw me in this mess
I guess it's time I make you see
That I'm struggling
I cannot cope
It’s hard to let you know
That I want to sink
To the bottom so
Please just let me go
I'm being eaten alive
By something I'm keeping inside
I'm sure it wants me to die
Somebody please
Just help me breathe tonight
Alright
I'm sure it wants to take my life
You can't avoid this
I'll make sure you face everything
That you try to avoid.
(Why won't you look)
One night of hedonism
To put me in this prison
Your conscience nothing like mine
How do you think it's fine
Only regret
And grief I find
It’s hard to let you know
That it sickens me
I'm filthy shit
So please just let me go
I'm being eaten alive
By something I'm keeping inside
I'm sure it wants me to die
Somebody please
Just help me breathe tonight
Alright
I'm sure it wants to take my life
Let's fight
Tonight
Let's save our own lives
I'm sure you know
That your game is ending soon
I'll tell my world
And the rest of the world too
Yeah
Who's it gonna be
You first or me
I'll break that news
Shout it to the street
This ain't gonna get the best of me
Ima shout it out on 1, 2, 3, go
Who's it gonna be
You first or me
I'll break that news
Shout it to the street
This ain't gonna get the best of me
Ima shout it out on 1, 2, 3, go
Don't hesitate to speak up
Or you'll find yourself feeling alone in a crowd
In this world we gotta stick together
Raise your voice, don't be scared to be loud
A man once taught me values of la raza familia
Our love is both water and blood
I'll offer you a thousand shoulders to cry on
Just as punks and rudeboys should

It was like a week ago
We was having fun
Even your moms treated me
Like her only son
Had a friendship with your pops
Like father like son
But damn, girl
I guess its back to square one
Wanted this forever
It's easier said than done
You even told more lies
Than the Daily Sun
I can't get to your phone
You barely at your home
When I wanna sort this out
Every time you postpone
I don’t want to leave and lose you
From so far away
I’ve found my home and it’s beside you
I’ll beg myself to stay
it's been a couple months now
My, look at time flying by
This a fun ride
I pray it doesn't die because
You are the colors
to my coloring book
My sanity in all calamity and in honesty you
Took it upon yourself to make me
Love that nigga in the mirror
I'm rapping up a present
From my heart I do deliver
Besties, never thought
I'd be the one to woo her
Chesties, every time
I think about the moments without her
Nights with the Hennessy
Was living out off frequency and verily verily
I may say these words sporadically
Shes my moon and my stars
My constellation well connected
Like the woo and the broads
I don’t want to leave and lose you
From so far away
I’ve found my home and it’s beside you
But would you beg me to stay
I’m not the person that they say I am
I’m not that way
I’ve tried speaking through my love and actions
I’ll be left counting the days
Til you hold me again
I’m not sure where things changed
I wish I could let you know
The way that you’ve rearranged
My head so careful and slow
The months melt into each other
December has no end
Blissful perpetual motion
I’m running circles in your bed
