You know why you hear that melody
It’s just for me i’ll keep it fresh and clean
So i’ll try not to gleam
you know how hard that is for me
The sea salt ain’t seen nobody float like me i come to a complete halt with so much
free thought
yet the results
Insult my real faults
Don;t be distraught i’ll connect these dots just wait and see because
Cause that’s no problem for me
Because You won;t see me plead
looking For an answer you see
I'm just tryna space be space meeee
Yet what i need is to succeed
Well then That’s no sweat for me
looking For an answer you see
I'm just tryna space be space meeee
what i need is to succeed
Well then That’s no sweat for me
perceive me as you please
Because You won;t see me plead
Sign it right here and here
No need to adhere to fear
just hear me out no doubt
Just Trust me don’t dust me off
It’s just me
i ain’t gon soft
Ok sold
Hold up listen if there’s who dissin trust me they trippin
now let me chip in I’ll explain it in a nutshell
my every failure sure as hell won’t change my behavior
There may be no savior but i’ll carry myself and do the labor
may not have plan yet i still stand as i Start
Feel something coming for me
Yet I don't scream
As feel something coming for
Feel something coming for me
Feel something
I can’t do this no mo
Pls don’t be distraught
From My thoughts and my faults
I’m running on some danger I admit that
that’s why they also don’t spit back
I’m going crazy it feels like I can’t hit back
As matter of fact i wanted you to get that
I’m living on the edge i don’t get that
Stressed and depressed it’s a set back
I’m a lonely stranger i admit that
But this is my spit back
It’s just Hack but i called it My dream
So i don’t deem myself worthy
Swear i’ll get scurvy cause I’ll surely be paying
For the lies that I ‘m saying
You know the ones been telling
You see I call it sellin
Yet they callin me felon
I’m at the bottom of the sea like urchin
As I’m searchin
For that answer you see I’m tryna be me
You hear that it’s no pure melody
Just like me
I was searching like urchin just tryna be me
I’ve come calm fresh clean to get restart
As I’ve torn myself apart I can choose who i wanna be
Indoubtedly I’ve been scamming me there’s no need for a deed that’s been bound by
me

Hold on. To those days with your loved ones.
Hold on. so you won’t forget what once was.
It happens every time, relationships fall down
It's hard to love somebody when there’s nobody around.
Regret is my emotion
Keep going through these motions
I Wish you could forget all my devotion
But even if you wanted to, you can't let go.
Your diamond eyes are ringed with sorrow.
And you turn your head to hide the pain
Your teardrops fall with the pouring rain.
But why cant you seeeeee, that i've got to leave
Your company is killing me and. I can't continue to live like this anymore
So I'm closing the door.
Remember when I looked at you for the first time
Remember when we were swept of our feet then
Went soaring through the sky
As far away as our wings could fly
Never thinking of landin
With the gift we’d been handed
Who knew that we could be stranded by a single lie
But even if I wanted to you know I can't let go.
My diamond eyes are ringed with sorrow.
Turn my head to hide the pain as my teardrops fall with the pouring rain
At least now you see why I've got to leave. your company was killing me and I couldn't continue to live that way anymore.
So now I've closed my door.
Days pass
Walkin through
A meadow thats devoid of grass
Can't help feeling that i lack
A third of my soul heart attack
Can't live in this barren land
No company but all this sand
I'll fall if i dont got a hand
Find myself
Find myself running back
Even if we wanted to, we can't let go.
Our blinded eyes were ringed with sorrow
as we lift our heads, never hiding pain.
Tears evaporating like the puddles of rain
I finally see
That i just can't leave
Your company was thrilling me and i
Want to live like this for just a little more
So now I've opened my door.

There was this guy who roamed the streets I saw him occasionally
One day i stopped to greet him
He didnt say a word
He just stared
At someone in the distance
One monday moringing
as i walked around the block
my eye saw the the guy
who was all the talk nowadays.
I remember what they said on the news that day.
The man stared into the camera
with his brown eyes wide open,
without a trace of emotion.
He was truely frightened
And his already light skin
Turned even more pale
He stutured when he talked
“To men knocked out on the side of the block.
No trace of the man who must be caught”
I thought to myself “since this was the guy they want locked up I aught to turn him in so his shenanigans would stop”
This big city got no chill
When shit goes down man it gets real This guy he does not feel he kills Man today has really been a thrill
“911, why’d you call this line” I look to the window
See if anyones around
All seems fine
So i say the line
“Yes, there is this guy”
As i talk do imply
That my end is nigh
theyve heard of the guy
Said theyre tracking him down
“I have a friend thats no longer around Took him without a sound”
“He must be found”
So later when they pull up
I run right to car
Start speedin through the streets
But we are still quite far.
Blue and red flash
Running all the red lights
Ruinnin through stop signs
Hop out of the car and dash
See the man quite far
He gives one look and turns
Runs through the crowed of people
So we follow
But we get no luck
So many people in our way so we get stuck The perpetrator got away
So our attempt to save the day
Was denied by the sea of gray
This big city got no chill
When shit goes down man it gets real This guy he does not feel he kills
He does things that no man should do ever

When you’re walking through the woods,
look out for strangers wearing hoods.
Never stray far from the path,
and beware the vampires’ wrath.
They’re lurking, now, among the trees,
their breath is like an icy breeze.
You may think you’re safe from them
but never put yourself at ease.
Their house is filled with crumbling bones,
children’s skulls all smashed with stones.
They’ll turn you into one of them,
so be careful where you roam.
They’re godless sinners, bound for hell,
pray for them, their families as well,
but don’t go near them, children, please,
or they’ll catch you with their spells.
[instrumental]
Upon the hill above the trees,
A field of flowers, a flowing breeze.
Among the lavendar lay the fangless vampires,
hand in hand, their minds at ease
