I got too much to do today I Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Wanna go for a walk with me? Got too much to do today Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Just come for a walk with me Why do I own four raincoats if I like to feel the raindrops I keep trying to sing songs maybe I should just stick to hip hop Train is leaving - where do I get off in believing I could just hop off I like to sit with sadness but if its yours I’ll make the pain stop Got freedom or are you chained? You living proud or you ashamed? You changing or you same? You changing or you same? Inspired or are you drained? Inspite of all that we gained, Aren’t you tired of the game? I’m tired of this game. I’m not who you wanted me to be Wanted it for you but I found it for me Thought I knew what love was apparently I didn’t see That freedom is what love is - and now hand I hold the key To open opportunities mistakes are turned to little trees We paint them on blank canvases and hope the cost is worth the fee But nothing is as priceless as the quiet moments in between There’s happiness in stillness - just listen carefully Got too much to do today Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Wanna go for a walk with me? Got too much to do today Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Just come for a walk with me. Wanna be grooving - but I’m pursuing Those dreams I’m chasing - gotta keep moving. Why am I doing the things that I’m doing? I wanna be fluid I wanna be fluent. I wanna be suited to live my life rooted. But I’m only human - its feeling polluted Ive given my all and I’m leaving diluted. One day if I fall, will you water the tulips? You say you will heard that one before I’ll be honest The daffodils need more to grow than just an empty promise They need sunshine with the solace - rainclouds with the calmness If it pours too much I need to know that you’ll protect the softness August, it burns hottest and the roses, even smallest Need to be loved and acknowledged, it’s their thorns that make them flawless After they have fallen- in the spring with a fresh pollen Maybe they can grow again, but I want flowers in the Autumn Brrr, you feel that breeze? (yeah) That was a cold chill Focusin on steeze is how you catch one, and control kills How will you keep climbing if those mountains turn to molehills Ashes turn to dust and I know even the gold will Got too much to do today Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Wanna go for a walk with me? Got too much to do today Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Wanna go for a walk with me? Got too much to do today Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Wanna go for a walk with me? Got too much to do today Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Wanna go for a walk with me? Beautiful creature, wonderful teacher. Stay learning - we need the seekers Desire tangible - but be a dreamer We are adaptable - embrace the ether Time is agile, moments are fragile, All of us have gone through our own trials All of us know that we live in a world wild It’s important to breathe in the meanwhile This is your genre you are the author The flower’s are blooming wherever you water It is consuming, the courage to wander Whisper your mantra and onward you saunter Leaving the road and embarking on trails. Looking for the signs to be felt like they’re braille Go where you roam there’s no need for details You don’t need to know only trust you won’t fail Nature never seems to hurry yet somehow it’s all gets finished If you let the day’s get blurry you’ll forget that life’s a privilege I got tired of the worry, that’s when I embraced forgiveness Rather watch the ferrets scurry, that’s the proper kinda business. The jobs is never finished all of us have got our limits If you need it, take this minute - if you just want it, come and get it Let the clouds pour down extinguish and drown out the doubting limericks It’s a choice to feel alive so when the storm hits you, just let it. I got too much to do today I Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Wanna go for a walk with me? I got too much to do today I Wish I could just walk away Why’s it sunny I miss the rain Just come for a walk with me Hey Mylo, you wanna go for a walk? Who wants to go for a walk? Who’s the goodest boy?

Was always a conflict of thought since I’ve never quite lived with the surf as my ship and the sun in my arms Pavement I’ve licked and I cruise a land yacht ripping’ turf in my whip that’s the charm This enslavement is sick I can’t seem to cure it can’t predict what is wrought you just use what you’re taught So tell me your loco motives, You’re driven, but are you really living? Sunkisses my basis like stars freckle faced No tangent is wasted all fragments replaced in lace It’s spacious and oddly arboraceous Don’t need a hiatus your mind’s an oasis - a place Petal’s embraces to some might seem tasteless But I’ll leave you traces of hope in a vase Some artists want plays some artists want praise and that’s dope but some artists want space Lately I’m busy blooming Please give me room to grow Can’t you see these mountains need moving? Please let me go Lately I’m busy blooming. Please give me room to grow. Can’t you see these mountains need moving? Please let me go. You don’t choose a path - if is you that is chosen Don’t mean to impose would you smell this rose and If you hold it close do you mind it has thorns? Daydreaming meadows and a sunrise that’s warm My brain’s hieroglyphics I miss the pacific I illicit wicked I think you’re terrific Your aura acrylic - your iris idyllic And though I love love, right now I can’t feel it Make goodness your basis and have no plays wasted Don’t copy and paste it - define days creative Our roots deep in greatness - stay in goodest graces The motif of matrix state that risks are weightless Today’s your encore but tomorrow no promise Watchu waiting for - nothing is ever flawless So open the door - and then relish the rawness Regardless of onus - you got this Don’t moan and groan it. You’re your own opponent Find your path and hone it. Fulfilments most potent Enrol in each moment The dreams - don’t postpone it Each day’s a bestowment, So we keep da coals burnt You gonna live shallow, or are you a diver? A gentle reminder - to always be kinder. We’re all facing battles - we’re all in the grinder. Be a dreamscape designer Lately I’m busy blooming Please give me room to grow Can’t you see these mountains need moving? Please let me go Lately I’m busy blooming Please give me room to grow Can’t you see these mountains need moving? Please let me go I must be admitting I’m catching time slipping I pencil in moments of conscious I’ve written I’m stencils of tokens of emotions smitten We all play the hero we all play the villain We all play all parts in an interesting story I’m here swaying hearts and combating the boring Just want to make art reinvest in the glory Bring comfort to the purgatory I’m living my vision - any cynicism’s I am cataclysm into cyan skizms Tied up like we’re ribbon get flax like a linen Our mind’s can be prisons - I’d rather them prisms All sizes of niceness face me with crisis We all have our vices - success comes with prices A moment’s worth amplifies when it’s past What would you do if this one was your last? Lately I’m busy blooming Please give me room to grow Can’t you see these mountains need moving? Please let me go Lately I’m busy blooming Please give me room to grow Can’t you see these mountains need moving? Please let me go

Want my words to resonate So the world relates It’s the great debate Seems we appreciate When its a bit too late So we cast blame and wait Shinin’ a flame on fate (Deep voice - will we make the same mistakes) Probably not, I know But does the past look goldn GOLD We’re veering paths, its cold Outside - like December BRR I was at my wits end though I won’t remember Aren’t we all our worst adversaries? pin it on each other like we Tom and Jerry Arbitrary now that we’re solitary Weird how you could have been the one I married. I keep kidding myself that I’m over all that But the late night’s got ma thought freights matte black You once told me you wouldn’t end up a rap But you end up in my thoughts cuz I think a lot Fresh snow on the streets and I know Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold Streetlights bring me peace so I go Even though I don’t know where I’m going. Feeling some sort of waaaay Feeling some sort of how Not sure of the way, thought I’d have figured out I’ll keep riding that wave - until ma light goes out Know that without a doubt, it’ll always work out Rocking a crowd, I hope that you’d be proud Does the quiet comfort or do you miss loud? See ma depths are profound and when I was around. You’d get my heads from the clouds I’d get yours off the ground Icarus died cuz he shot too high just a reminder not to act to fly Thoughts of an outsider - when there’s tears to cry You are the decider when to say bye bye Love is blind, cause it takes eye for eye At times it was ugly, but you were always kind That say love is freedom - but I felt confined Couldn’t find freedom and was tired of trying You were tired too. If that’s one thing I knew Miscommunications blues become blown fuse People feel used, emotionally bruise I’d like to be excused. I didn’t mean to hurt you But see in the process I hurt myself too, Cuz you break-in’ off a piece of yourself to start new They’re called break ups - but they lead to breakthroughs But your substitutes just given’ me deja vu Sweet pea you called me. Like I was a broom. We clean up real good, eh? Growing room. Floating through space, I’m in the flume Nights they can be manic but I learn from gloom. When I went, I ignored any reason to stay. I know I made the right choice, at the time, anyways Rise and grind, wish you coffee and rays 20,000 mornings left in our days Fresh snow on the streets and I know Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold Streetlights bring me peace so I go Even though I don’t know where I’m going Knocked down my wall I permitted it You were so good at fixing but there’s no tool kit I could justify it - or admit that I quit Wasn’t healthy for us to be living like that Not sure if I just let it channel I know I’m never given more than I can handle Feel burnt at both ends and I’m holding the candle I’m a damsel on a mantle that comes with no manual Can’t take it back I can’t put you through that It’s a fact - people aren’t objects on racks I step back - don’t react - see the progress you’ve stacked Adolescents learning adult lessons with tact Besides I’m happy on my own Satisfied with progress I’ve grown Passion plays out in ma headphones I smile thinking bout all the milestones Thank you for showing me strength within me I get stubborn, It’s not easy You went every length to do better by me You showed me parts of myself I wasn’t ready to see Old habits die hard, guess that you’re one of those You’re the ace of the cards eternalize in the prose At work last week, I saw a couple propose I lost my composure saw my shadow Tears of joy - looks off however If I didn’t take off - could yo u have dealt me better? Time seems still when you thinking forever I’d kill it with you, don’t matter the weather Been running lots. from my problems If I keep running’ I won’t have to solve em The days are getting shorter. I switch to the nights. I remember I told you we’d be alright Fresh snow on the streets and I know Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold Streetlights bring me peace so I go Even though I don’t know where I’m going Fresh snow on the streets and I know Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold Streetlights bring me peace so I go Even though I don’t know where I’m going.

Weaving thoughts like spiders in my studio They’re reminders of just where the shadows go An addict of the highs and lows The manicness good for the show I panic less when I propose the purpose of my syllables P-p-p-paper mache pufferfish are neon when I’m dreaming They are floating off the ceiling and my world is a museum Be with me I’ll show you freedom Spontaniety my demon What are yours? Do they need feeding? Introduce me, I can’t see em I think that I’ve had too much on my plate I’m trying to get my thoughts to relate; Apologies came a little late But I really do hope that you’re doing great Reciprocate kindness if you don’t taste it You’ll see snideness just might replace People waited, egos inflated Friendship’s simple - life’s complicated I forgot my patience I’m nervous I’m wasting My last bits of passion and purpose on waiting I’m either lost chasing or busy escaping Been runnin’ so long I’m exhausted. The harmless ain’t heartless Cuz they know what loss is. Not scared of the darkness It builds us as artists My favourite part? the part that is hardest - It helps to remind us we got this It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Lying here awake how can the silence be so deafening? It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Why is it I can’t stop wondering about what could’ve been? It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Will we get along again? Will you play my songs again? It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Will this track distract you when you lay awake at 3 am? Late at night no birds chirping just some coyotes in the distance (Awoo) I had high hopes I could list them (I could) But they’re gone - and I don’t miss them (Nope) In any instance sorry if I’ve been distant Holding on is resistance - and my minds been inconsistent (Let go) Consistently though - I’ve been doing daily rituals (Namaste) Good habits I’ve grown - I’m perpetually fixing my lulls (Everyday) Theres so much unknown - and I’m tired of the skeptical (Aren’t y’all) So I’ll change my tone and I’ll shine like the moon that is full (I don’t wanna be dull) I remember when it was waning Goin’ full steam motives are draining Lost in dreams don’t wanna be waking  World is turning records rotating Open this book to read my glimpses With one look you’ll know my eclipses Watch them glisten far off and distant My thoughts echo it’s hard to listen Reality blurs the possibilities Dusk daydreams spur soft soliloquies It’s tempting to visit in your dreams We are safer left as memories  What I know is true is that yeah, we coo’ It’s a beautiful world, even if it’s blue Gotta choose who you want and see it through I just hope for now this song will do It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Lying here awake how can the silence be so deafening? It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Why is it I can’t stop wondering about what could’ve been? It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Will we get along again? Will you play my songs again? It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again Will this track distract you when you lay awake at 3 am? It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
