Told this hurricane to come So you would stay Though I know you meant to anyway Held off on the thunder roll Lightning at bay I could tell you only wanted wind and rain I've flooded cities before And felt no shame So hold none of your own When I do this in your name I'll break out the firestorm Reset the game I've flooded cities before And felt no shame So hold none of your own When I do it in your name

Getting high in a hole She's too old For this shit No she's paranoid No, she's just paranoid When she goes Meets her man Cash in hand Gonna quit Nevermore It ain't shit Anymore Anymore She gets high On the dole But she's gold She's a hit No she's platinum Hey, she's going platinum Hold her hair for an hour Hold her heart in your hands For life She gets high On the gold But she's old So she quit But she's platinum Hey, at least she's platinum Hold her hair for an hour Hold her heart in your hands For life ya ya ya ya ya

Feverbrow 05:12
"I'll be sure to listen in when not with fevered brow"* Skin that I keep swimming in Just weight to take around And all the bones Got thinner in The heat To each their own Skeleton Key I'll be short They're listening Their ears are all around They put a bug In everything They hear every sound All my phones Are wiretapped I know Someone told me It's a fact It's so Came through with all you owned Said you don't have your own Do you pray for me? Amen to what they said Hold high your burning head Do you pray for me? You knew, you just could tell Cut through heaven on our way to hell You knew me very well Cut through heaven on our way to hell

One day I'ma find my Josephine She won't be like anyone I've seen Sweeter than I ever even dreamed One day I'ma find my Josephine

NONE of my sounds are made with Artificial Intelligence, just a few album covers. Is anybody reading this? If so thank you. If not, then I guess I can say whatever I want because you'll never read it. So fuck you I guess? Just kidding madluv.
