Time's tearing at the seams and bound to explode
Don't ask me what I mean cuz ya already know
Buddy are you ready? Cousin are you ready?
Dreaming to succeed when you're really a bloke
Can't afford your needs so you're selling your clothes
Buddy are you ready? Cousin are you ready?
Times tearing at the seams and bound to explode
You're sitting right on top, or so you suppose
Takes one good breeze and then you'll all fold
Buddy you ain't ready, cousin you ain't ready
Thinking you got years to travel, explore
But things won't go on like they did befoe
Buddy you ain't ready, cousin you ain't ready
Sittin right on top, or so you suppose

Time's Been Hardd
02:56

Well I been feeling like I'm under attack, I've asked
If you could cut me a little slack
Throw a banana to the monkey on my back
He been pulling the hairs up on my neck
Thinking about all these months that came and went
Trying to bring down my caffeine tolerance
My baby don't want us to move again
Trying hard as hell to keep my cussing to a minimum
Times been hard
And here is where I've gotten so far
My problems growing infinitely bigger in the thick of it
Times been hard
Well I been feeling like I'm under attack, I've asked
If you could cut me a little slack
Throw a banana to the monkey on my back
Could use a break from these anxiety attacks!!
Where's Gabe, did he get a demotion?
Ain't he intrigued by the constant commotion?
I wish her breaths wouldn't be so wheezy
It ain't easy being Shady Cool Breezy baby
Time's been hard, put you pulled me through this far
I feel you moving closing every moment I push you away
There you are!

EZ
03:04
|
|||
Can't wait till I'm free
Eventually
The pain attached like a leech will finally leave, but till then
I'm taking it easy
I can't push myself too hard
I've already come so far
And I won't get any closer now
Easy
Tomorrow's another day
I'll crush under all this weight
If I keep pushing pushing pushing pushing

No Control
04:11
|
|||
Couldn't get a word in edgewise, didn't orient them right
Struggling your way out towards the light, you're stuck inside
Watching defenseless, so immensely helpless to a fault
Why can't I do anything at all?
But wait for you, for days
Maybe the only way I'll ever get through this life
Is admit I've no control so I don't lose my mind
Ambulance lights flash red and blue on the living room walls
People I don't know are holding you up so you don't fall
I'm stuck at stop lights trying to keep up behind
Keep my mind off possibilities of what I might find
Better hands hold you now, not mine
Maybe the only way I'll ever get through this life
Is admit I've no control so I don't lose my mind

Teresa Says
03:20
|

What is the point of a song
If it's not sung in microphones
it only plays inside my head?
What is the use of all these words
If they never get heard
If they stay inside the pen?
Theresa says give it away
It's not yours to keep
Theresa says you've got it made
If you can peacefully sleep
How will your colors impart
The beauty of your pretty art
If your brushes sit dormant?
And how can we see anything
When the lights hid underneath
Of the stairs in the basement?
I've tried my best to sing it out
But no one hears anything
And I just don't wanna let you down
Have i wasted these years stuck in a pipe dream?

I'm Gonna Win
01:34
|
|||
One of these days I'm gonna win
And all of my doubts will look foolish
And I'll be on top, pumping my fists
My enemies will be ruined
The curse of Jim Kelly
And Daryl Talley
Getting so close
But it gets snatched away
The hurt of the 90's
And lulls of the 0s and 10s
Are gonna end
One of these nights I'll surpass
All of the ones that tried before me
From CMAC's front row to the grass
The people will pack in like sardines

Holy Smokes!
03:45
|
|||
Walking around
the outskirts of town
headlights on your back
Dimming slowly down into black
i'm still back here
the moon disappeared
been gone for days
can't keep saying it's just a phase
My life was so simple
I didn't even notice
But with every new wrinkle
It's forced into focus
Where were you when I needed you the most?
Standing frozen like you'd just seen a ghost
I mean, holy smokes!
I still smell you on my clothes
I mean, holy smokes
I still smell you on my clothes
I finally had peace
When I stopped holding out
Hoping you'd come for me
In a dream
In reality
Such a sick fucking game
The balance between
My needs and the patience
demanded of me
It's like, do you wanna be found?
Do you wanna be seen and heard?
How can you expect me to believe another word?
My life was so simple
I didn't even notice
But with every new wrinkle
It's forced into focus

Look at Me
02:30
|

Who do you hate?
Intimidate, throw out the gate?
Who have you pushed away ?
Do you understand? Or do you demand?
And clench your hand?
Who did you reprimand?
I pulled you in with love
Throw the rope out
Look at me
Who do you see when you look at me? Substantially?
See a Pharisee?
Who do you say I am? Deceitful scam? A decent man?
Have I been your friend?
As you sank into sand
I gave you my hand
I pulled you in with love

To My Future Parties
04:14
|
|||
This recovery's a bitch
And I'm tired of being so down about it
My manhood is circling the drain
Smiling's so unnatural
Comfort feels criminal
I guess I've gotten used to the pain
But up ahead I see
My future parties
You're all invited
I've been so sorry
You saw I couldn't hide it
There'll be drinks
And food
And elated moods
Your ass better be there
Underneath the christmas lights
I see my beautiful wife
I've put her through so much
She's sipping on a cocktail
laughing at the details
Of her best friend's work story (they're rough)
I'm so glad to be
At my future parties
You're all invited
I've been so sorry
You saw I couldn't hide it
There'll be drinks
And food
And elated moods
Your ass better be there
