The World is coming to an end
Cliché the end’s near
Cliché the end’s near
Cliché the end is on
Cliché the end’s near
Cliché the end’s near
Cliché the end is on
Cliché the end’s near
Cliché the end’s near
Cliché the end is... Shhh

Mr. Sinner Man
Why you keep knocking at my door
You should start heading home, home
Cause there’s a storm coming
And baby when that storms starts pouring down
You better run
Baby, baby, baby
Mr. Sinner Man
We’ve tried all we can
Now we’ve lost our hope
So now it’s time to go
But you can take it slow
If you just make it home
Why you keep knocking
Knocking on my door
Why you keep knocking on my door
Mr. Sinner Man
Storm starts pouring down
And around and around

I’m gonna set you Free
Hoping that the Reaper don’t get me
And bring me down like six feet
Thoughts of suicide, watching time pass by
Life ain’t been the same since Sassy died
Now I see darkness all around
And I ain’t scared and I ain’t sad
I love you more when it’s over
There comes a time to wake up to what’s happening
I love you more when it’s over

Yes, Lord
They bled my mother, won’t bleed me
They bled my father, won’t bleed me
They bled my brother, won’t bleed me
They bled my sister, WON'T BLEED

I been playing and praying, Pray, running them laps
Niggas pass me the ball, it won’t touch the grass
I been dreaming and scheming escaping the Past
New Earth cast a shade keep bringing me back
Dream past, turtle shell on back
DNA got the power, Power
Show me the figures
Show me, show me, show me
Bich count the bullets six feet in the grass
There’s nothing I can do about it
There’s nothing I can do about it
There’s nothing I can do about it
MORE FYE, There’s nothing I can do about it
Momma say, “know ya name”
Poppa say, “wasted days”
n no change, change, all the same, same
and no pay, pay, like everyday
and who to blame, and who the stain
and who not, and who got it?
Know nothing bout it cause I doubt it, yea I ain’t bout-
Ain’t no stopping, still counting
Living while I’m drowning
Take a bath in a fountain by Mulholland I’m drown in
Applause, Noise, Debt, Loss, damn
This is what they mean...
Applause, Noise, Death, Loss, damn
This is what they mean what it cost, damn
Hoping that these fans cool me off, damn
or this World

Freedom!
Smile at the Past when I see it
Sometimes shit seem out of reach, but when it do
I look down, see the glass on the ring
You look close, you could really see your Past on repeat
Tracing every step back like I’m dragging my feet,
You should get to know me
The devil dance, lean back in my seat
She blow a kiss, it hit the side of my cheek, I wipe it off Lipstick probably still on my skin
I’m just a victim in this world full of sin
My mother try and keep me safe
Mama try and keep me safe
When I was eating from your beak,
I knew I’d grow to fly away on my own
Always told me “Stay away from the stove”
and lit the fire just to heat up the comb
Now I’m grown
Uh, I’m grown
I made my own way
I’m grown

Slipping into Darkness
For your approval
Smile at the Past when I see it
Sun sets first in the deep end
I ain’t know I was hurt till the healing
Made me a man cursing my feelings
Over East with the lil homies and
I was fourteen rolling with them
Kept an eye on shorty when his daddy outside
working late getting more dividends
So what its hitting for
Living wrong but we all on a mission though
See the stars from the sidewalk I’m missing home
Kemo told me, “fly brodie get the dough”
This summer’s like one I’ve never known
I need what I need
I see what I see
I need what I need
I see what I need
I need what I need
(Save me lord I was born a sinner)
Out here for the C.R.E.A.M
(Boulevard been a cold December)
Heal me if I bleed
(Niggas leave in the maple sprinter)
Climb this mountain just to feed us
(Make it right for the one within us)
Lord guide me never leave us
(Paper trail lead me straight to dinner)
Turn my enemies to debris cause
(Tables tables)
It’s all right
The sun shines
It’s all right
The days come back in time
I seen the days come back in time
I seen the days come back in time
I seen the days come back in time
I seen the days come back in time
I seen the days come back in time
I seen
come out to show them, show them
In my younger years before I learned Black
I wanted to be ______ and say, “Drown in my
own tears, Talking bout you,
Talking bout you, Talking”
And scream, “Baby, Night and Day”

Hi so, um, I had a dream recently actually like maybe, 5 days ago where, I, wake up in the morning and, um, I get I have a lot missed calls and I go down the stairs to outside and then someone stops me and says, “Oh my gosh you you have you have to you can’t go outside.” And I was like, “What are you talking about?” And she looks at me like so scared and she’s like, “The P- the Poles have switched.” So everybody was just kind of waiting to DIE!

Right now, right Now
Right now, right Now
I’m gone, ugh, tell em I’m gone
They bled my sister
If he asks you, ugh, was I running?
There ain’t no way, Ain’t no way
There ain’t no days, Ain’t no space
I ain’t no slave, I ain’t no spade
Ain’t no way
Ain’t no way, Ain’t no way
Ain’t no days, Ain’t no space
I ain’t no slave, I ain’t no spade
There ain’t no way

I was on the roof and,
Contemplating truth and,
Saw myself running
but now I ain’t running
Came a long way, way, away
Remember them days, you could still see it in we face
Blues blood like the waves
come out to show them
Looking for an old place new space
behind the moon and the stars
but not another Planet just balance, but we stuck
You love my pain, fuck
Whole life bad luck cause God
They ain’t trust us
Ain’t the type to know real just us or without us
Make a new dance bout us, then drown us
Make the rain go away, brain go away
Celebrate sorrow
Till I can’t tomorrow
It’s just time borrowed
Just time borrowed
Imagine light without darkness
or the mind without solace?
This what momma promised
This what momma promised?
This ain’t what they taught us

Mistake my silence as sadness
My mind as madness
My Blackness as badness, my Blackness is bad
My smile as malice
Opinions invalid but exceptional talent
The World’s a phallus(fallac-)
cause I’m always getting pissed off

God get up on me
Devil get up off me
Off me
Try to keep my soul intact, stay alive, If I die bring me back, but my nigga still in that, hit the corner peeling back, niggas eating, fuck a reason broke, no going back, get the bag, black scars looking pass, when I see it
God get up on me
Devil get up off me
Off me
Pigs stay up on me
Pigs get up off me
Off me
Another dead nigga in street
Another slave nigga industry
Mirror got me looking back see, mirror clearer when I tap, looking back it’s a trap in with the kin hit me back, re-up all up in my lap, fire smoke crumbled up
Falling slow, falling slow, getting up, I don’t know, let me know
Faith get up, on me, falling don’t, get me, devil get up, off me
off me, off me, off me, off me, off me, off me
OFF ME!
Staying down, stay around
Slow
Slow
Slow
Where we from no going back miss it when we gone death be back try to lax pain in my eyes paying tax getting back under fire stay alive
When ya safe hit me back, When ya safe hit me back
I’ll wait till u there, wait till u there, wait till u there, Calling with me
Blood like the water from the sky dripping, steps listen, falling
Slow
Slow
Slow, falling, slow
Standing, Staring, standing, staring
Till ya dead weight, till ya dead wait till ya dead weight, till ya dead wait, till ya dead weight, till ya dead wait, till ya dead weight, till ya dead
Throw you in the water
Falling, Slow
Turn your life to a martyr
Standing, staring at red and blue lights
Blood purple skies
In the waves, in the Wake
Learn to swim, learn to sink
Falling, Slow
Scream out, reach out
To be held, to be hurt
Wind cries turnt to rain
Darkness in my smile
Shadows in my speech
Thunder in my tongue
Lightning in my teeth

scared!
Memories is medicine
The past make me reticent
like elephants to Edison
Wish I had a sedative
Wish I wasn’t pessimist
Shocks of Mighty threaten em, cause a melanin
My mind racing circuits like Danica
Eyes tracing steps up to Canada cause we
never getting back to Africa
Med saying, “We can’t be bought”
But what’s the price when you already caught
Nostalgia cinema, Roots is enigma, black nigga,
pain past my ten figgas, tryna catch us by the toe
Never reaped what we sowed cause
I let em use the scythe first
2020 sights see the future first
n I’m grown, I’m grown, but my flowers ain’t
Flooded like the Saints in the 05’ Hurricane
Headed to the hills wit my Momma on cocaine
Can’t smile at the Past when I see it
Mistake my Past as seen it(scenic)
Cause what was ain’t what it really seem
Maybe pain is what we really mean
Or maybe ___ is what I really need
Gas what I smoke

I can’t see
Smile at the Past when I see it
Nostalgia when you need it
False futures in the Past
Remembering what wasn’t
Sleep again, Dream again
Shhh
Heads hung
Tied tounge
Songs sung
Souls sold
Hopes held
Free felt
Please, believe me Brother
Please, rest easy Sister
Freedom
Escapist dreaming
Star reading
Fake meaning
Terror fiending
World Bleeding
Bad feeling
I ain’t eating
I ain’t breathing
You ain’t seeing
You ain’t seeing

Crying all by
Self
