Need No One 03:18
If I wanna do it, I do it Shit was a guess and I knew it Give me a cup of the ice Double it up and I screw it Maybe I figured a way to be Somewhere in space on Mercury Got Martians that visit and wave to me Tying up snakes I'm Hercules And I don't really care what you say That's cool 'cause everything you do is too late I know that when I'm all alone there's no wait When I'm all alone there's no wait When I'm all alone there's no wait I don't need no one I don't need no one Guess I need that one All my friends showed up All my friends showed up Now I'm dead so what? I don't need no one I don't need no one Guess I need that one All my friends showed up All my friends showed up Now I'm dead so what? I'm just saying I don't really got a God now I'm just saying I don't really wanna need no one What's a name when it's really all I got now? What's the shame when the blood in my veins frozen? And no one's gonna help me at all Smelling on the dirt as I crawl Looking at the peak when you fall Looking at the peak when you fall Looking at the peak when you fall I don't need no one I don't need no one Guess I need that one All my friends showed up All my friends showed up Now I'm dead so what? I don't need no one I don't need no one Guess I need that one All my friends showed up All my friends showed up Now I'm dead so what?

Liar 02:43
I be on the front porch now Drinking when you're not around Watch the ice cubes melt down Then I'll drink those too All the houses look the same Neighbors 20 feet away I'm just waiting for the rain Then I'll drink that too New stain on my old shoes now New blame for that old news now Who says what I'm gonna do now? Even I don't know And my ashtray filled with the butts that I never smoked And my brain filled up with the words that I never wrote Maybe I'm a goddamn liar Who said I couldn't get higher now? Maybe I knew the truth would hurt so I left you to do the work Maybe I'm a goddamn liar Who said I couldn't get higher now? Maybe we could be okay but you won't know if you don't stay Hurts good like a new tooth It ain't what I'm used to Might look so strong but I don't wanna wait that long Saw Heaven from the highway Gonna open up when I say Don't know what you been on but I know that I can't be wrong Now my drink all gone and my lungs all black Hope my blood stay warm when the sun comes back I got all I want but I can't get that If the world burns, guess my life's on track And my phone's filled up with times that I never called And my room filled up with the signs that I never saw Maybe I'm a goddamn liar Who said I couldn't get higher now? Maybe I knew the truth would hurt so I left you to do the work Maybe I'm a goddamn liar Who said I couldn't get higher now? Maybe we could be okay but you won't know if you don't stay

In & Out 03:40
The sooner you die the more money you save I feel like pinching all my fucking pennies today Alone, yeah I might be, tweaking out nightly How'd I get so sloppy and get nothing on my white tee? In and out of cribs, man, my head is getting big Need to bring me down to earth Need to show me what it's worth Every person looks like problems to me 'Cause I hate that all my time just looks like commas to me I gotta be some kind of monster, just be honest with me A lot of weed and time alone might just have gotten to me Don't feel bad though, I know I'm selfish, I'm just an asshole And hungry, how could they hate this? I fucking love me I need to, I got demons, they see I'm see-through They haunt me, I need some sunshine, I'm drinking coffee No talking, won't call my friends back, they think they lost me I'm changing, I'm just the new me, they think it's not me In and out, in and out, in and out What you 'bout, what you 'bout, what you 'bout? Never doubt, never doubt, never doubt me I got grey clouds fucking up this drought In and out, in and out, in and out What you 'bout, what you 'bout, what you 'bout? Never doubt, never doubt, never doubt me I got grey clouds fucking up this drought 'Cause I'm in then I'm out I just be building self-doubt I don't want shit in my house I don't want names in my phone Why can't you leave me alone? Until I want you not to I hope my feelings got through I just spent a whole day feeling bad for myself I can't be doing that shit, I think it's bad for my health But maybe not, hazy daily shit might make me crazy hot I play a lot, never lazy though, tell Satan save a spot Went off the deep end but I've been back Get high then brace for the impact Old friends don't know where I've been at No lights in the house with a tin hat But that shit match with my new 'fit Wear my heart on my sleeve, no new chick More thoughts than I know what to do with Just found myself I'm gonna lose it Let my shadow sing, don't worry 'bout a thing I gave my shadow wings, my moods are taking swings I'm trying balancing, let's see what that'll bring But I don't know, maybe I'm the Shadow King I don't got an attitude, you probably think I'm mad at you Been feeling things I can't include, pursuing different avenues I'm itching like an addict do, but this is what I have to do I'm sorry for the doubt but I'm always in and out In and out, in and out, in and out What you 'bout, what you 'bout, what you 'bout? Never doubt, never doubt, never doubt me I got grey clouds fucking up this drought In and out, in and out, in and out What you 'bout, what you 'bout, what you 'bout? Never doubt, never doubt, never doubt me I got grey clouds fucking up this drought

Sold My Soul 02:03
Serotonin low, melatonin low Throws me off when I wake up every morning now It's a new day, that's what you say I've been low, yeah, and you know how it go I just sold my soul for a good time Feeling numb and that's a good sign Now my stash done, buzzing from my last one I don't want half, I want the whole thing When my eyes go black I don't feel so bad It's a phase, everybody with a brain knows that I forget sometimes, I could fit my mind In a bag not much bigger than my hand I just sold my soul for a good time Feeling numb and that's a good sign Now my stash done, buzzing from my last one I don't want half, I want the whole thing I feel bad for trees, look up at their leaves They work hard just to vomit up the air you breathe Give their roots a rest, try to hold your breath For a week, that's a record you could beat I just sold my soul for a good time Feeling numb and that's a good sign Now my stash done, buzzing from my last one I don't want half, I want the whole thing I just sold my soul for a good time Feeling numb and that's a good sign Now my stash done, buzzing from my last one I don't want half, I want the whole thing
