Hideaway (Lyrics)
Chorus
We wait for the sunrise hold tight
The memory’s still inside us
Hide away from the daylight ain’t right
They’re running but they’ll never find us
Could you ever feel real love?
Coz’ I’m trying but I still can’t tell
So you can take
All my feelings, all my demons
And leave me here to myself
Verse 1
I stood in the fire baby,
Saw reflection in myself
And as the flames grew higher baby
I was screaming out for help
Do you ever feel you’re bleeding when there ain’t no blood at all?
And I always feel I’m higher
Just when I’m about to fall
Up early with the sun and the stars
Where the cold wind feels so good
(And it feels)
Hide away in the shade till’ tomorrow
Living in my neck of the woods
Listen if you’re free then you’re free
And that’s all we need to worry about
Keep running till’ we find we’re in paradise
Where we walk around thinking aloud
Chorus
We wait for the sunrise hold tight
The memory’s still inside us
Hide away from the daylight ain’t right
They’re running but they’ll never find us
Could you ever feel real love?
Coz’ I’m trying but I still can’t tell
So you can take
All my feelings, all my demons
And leave me here to myself
(Where will you be?)
Let’s hide away x9
And still I pray we’ll be ok
We’ll find a way
With all the feelings all these demons
With they red eye red eye red eye
Verse 2
Feel love
Gripping hold of that white rug
Like night bugs we flight up
With white doves beside us
Won’t find us
Behind us
Is fine dust we left
I was in other minds but would you find
An escape route for stress
Only success will calm me down
I am colour in the clouds
Mix Rain Man with Peter Pan
I fly and Wendy counts
And it’s profound
That from a shade of grey
I turn around and save the day
I’m standing on a razor blade
My memory begins to fade
And names and places seem the same
Who am I to blame?
I’m just an empty vase with a given brain
I’m just a name
I’m the flame’s spark
That came from the same sharp knife
But the difference is I’m disappearing into the night
So shoot me on sight right?
Like I’m just here for the fun
It’s a jungle out there all I can do is run
Come when you’re ready the air is heavy
I feel it’s ok
Bury me beneath the leaves where I can hide away
Today
Chorus
We wait for the sunrise hold tight
The memory’s still inside us
Hide away from the daylight ain’t right
They’re running but they’ll never find us
Could you ever feel real love?
Coz’ I’m trying but I still can’t tell
So you can take
All my feelings, all my demons
And leave me here to myself
(Where will you be?)
[Repeat]
Let’s hide away x9
And still I pray we’ll be ok
We’ll find a way
With all the feelings all these demons
With they red eye red eye red eye

Water
Hey, how high are we
Yeah yeah
Ooh hey
How high are we
[Verse 1]
I stick to the rivers that I’m used to
Chasing waterfalls wanted it all but I refuse to
Revisit the mental space that I was in
Thought I could drown my sins
Cold apartment ten glasses of gin
And that’s still venom to a kid like me
The outcome is likely
To be mediocre forever
But I strive to be better
My level was set high
Almost too high
Naivety was key believing anybody could try and fly
I rely on flowers in the dark
The primary spark
Not the one that lit the fire
But the trier with the heart
You can relax into this life it’ll never set you apart
Ink flows outta my body creating abstract art
A lot of it I want nobody to see
‘Cause there was times I’s experiencing what you wouldn’t believe
Stemmed from that feeling it’s a part of my life
Used to be the only way I could sleep at night
But it’s alright you can
[Chorus]
Take all of my money
All that matters to me and go
Let it go
It makes me levitate
And baby you can’t save my lows
Into the bottle I go
Oh I know
And it feels like water x3
And it’s fading me out, me out
[Verse 2]
Easy, the heater’s broken it’s freezing
Looking for love but found trouble it’s teasing
Believing in something else that broke down
It’s a familiar sound
But you the last one to fly
The only one left on the ground
But build mountains as they disappear into the sky
Humble yourself the arrogance just ain’t appealing to the eye
And it’s fine
The night terrors will never get me this time
Bedroom bully under the sheets I was confined
A sign of something else out there
I promised to keep the faith
But it’s confusing nobody else could relate
And now I’m safe in my headspace
I let the lyrics write themselves
Body’s the mechanic purpose is stealth
Still I felt indestructible but it’s still pulling me back
Like you expect to sit here and never react
Stay on track until you see me switching lanes
I had this poison in my body so many times that it all tastes the same
[Chorus]
Take all of my money
All that matters to me and go
Let it go
It makes me levitate
And baby you can’t save my lows
Into the bottle I go
Oh I know
And it feels like water x3
And it’s fading me out, me out
How high are we

This Is the Life

This Is the Life
[Chorus]
‘Cause I believe in these visions and they control me
I found no love in the city like that was all I need
And I’m a slave to adding pages to the story
Until the day we fall I’m singing this is the life
No this is the life
Yeah
No this is the life
Yeah
Right before we fall
I’m singing this is the life
[Verse 1]
I am mountain high
Step outta my body and into my mind
Careless livin’ only god forgive him
I’ve risen to free my insides
And the beat ride out
Close your mouth we’re telepathic
I can hear your heart
Her eyes are fire
She said be quiet
She could see right into the dark
This is hardly Adam and Eve
Leave into the night
Just living the life
Decide we can push the boundaries
Escape the town we
Were living in to see whats outside
If we don’t come back
Take that as a freedom of soul
Stories for when I’m old
I’m lion king
Beyond a dream
Human beings take control
still we give back
More than rap
This aint how bigs your gat and that crap
Lack real synergy
Are you telling me you can emulate my energy
I’ll go for days
This aint a phase
Engraved in my genetics
These tired eyes don’t compromise
Even if I never get the credit
Just Let it breathe
Then take it in
If this the end where do we begin
If this the start where do we depart
I speak my mind so where’s my heart
I’ll chart just borderline insane
Perceive my life as just a game
Still the flame will never die
As long as I never comply
[Chorus]
‘Cause I believe in these visions and they control me
I found no love in the city like that was all I need
And I’m a slave to adding pages to the story
Until the day we fall I’m singing this is the life
No this is the life
Yeah
No this is the life
Yeah
Right before we fall
I’m singing this is the life
[Verse 2]
If we both die in open arms
This is all we wanted from our lives
This is all we needed from our lives
Yeah yeah
And if we
Don’t lay down no we don’t lay down at all
Then this is on us
Yeah yeah this is on us
Yeah this on us
We don’t even think twice
Put it on all I have in this life
And we are to blame
We are the same
We’re living inside the middle of hell
Keeping secrets that we still never will tell
And for the first time you know this is on us
It’s like I need to feel you before I can trust
Later we’ll decide if we’re doing it right
And we’ll Lay down our feelings in the dead of the night
In the dead of the night
We’re just living our lives
Living our lives
[Chorus]
‘Cause I believe in these visions and they control me
I found no love in the city like that was all I need
And I’m a slave to adding pages to the story
Until the day we fall I’m singing this is the life
No this is the life
Yeah
No this is the life
Yeah
Right before we fall
I’m singing this is the life

Hold Up

Hold Up
[Chorus]
And why you feel like that
You call me and I can’t call back
Still workin’
Hold up doll x4
Whoa
And I’m still off track
A lil’ money buying clothes off the rack
Still workin’
Hold up doll x4
Whoa
[Verse 1]
I’m feeling like giving you
A part of my soul
Tired of an empty house that’s hardly a home
But I’m never there
No one to care ‘cept a couple of friends
That promised if we make it big I wouldn’t have to pretend
The end’s closer than we imagined
But we live like nothing’s happened
There’s another world out there outside of rapping
In the finest fabric to cover up the inside of you
But she stay naked ‘cause real hoes don’t confide in you
Til’ she tell a friend who tell a friend about who’s gettin’ it
Send a couple pictures he’ll never show
And now it’s on the Internet
That feeling gets deep in your soul your hearts cold
Praying your mom and dad don’t know
And said you’ll never trust no man
You hate your friends
But you’ll be running back to that same fella again
And he’s promised and you believe that he’s honest but he’s the same
And I’ll be your fall back once again and it’s a shame, yeah
[Chorus]
And why you feel like that
You call me and I can’t call back
Still workin’
Hold up doll x4
Whoa
And I’m still off track
A lil’ money buying clothes off the rack
Still workin’
Hold up doll x4
Whoa
And I aint got much time
But time is money and money’s on my mind
And it’s all for you
For you, for you
For you darling yeah
And no matter how hard I grind
It will never compensate for how much I’ll shine for you
For you, for you
For you
[Verse 2]
Stay patient
Hearts still vacant though
You found love again but he’s faking though
I can tell
You said some things that you can’t reveal
Hours of make-up sex
But it wasn’t easily concealed
And then he left you in the bed you were sleeping in
Met a couple of women head spinning from that drink again
Then you questioning about which friend needs the alibi
Lip stick on his face and he still lie, you still cry
And still why he blag
It’s just a little sad
You stick by his side without knowing why you have
And I donno why you mad I admit
These women always fall for the pricks
Thick as shit
Have you looking like the bitch
And then you come back run back
Single again the funs back but once that punks back
Heart attack
And more and more alcohol won’t help
Drunk too early on the streets by yourself
Leaving voicemails, to me
[Bridge]
Why do, oh why do
Why do you
Why do you feel x2
Darling
Why do you feel x2
Like that like that
[Oohs & Aahs]
[Chorus]
And why you feel like that
You call me and I can’t call back
Still workin’
Hold up doll x4
Whoa
And I’m still off track
A lil’ money buying clothes off the rack
Still workin’
Hold up doll x4
Whoa
X2

Quiver
I give you love
You bring me joy
You bring me joy
[Chorus]
And I feel like our worlds are changing
We’re strangers in danger oh no
Oh no
And this aint the same road I’m used to
I refuse to move this on my own
On my own
And it makes me quiver
[Verse 1]
oh I aint felt this ages
yeah you know this feeling is dangerous
we are we are the same
living in the moonlight looking for the day ok
if you looking for more meet me by the water
and if I had a son or a daughter
I’d tell em to leave it
Love isn’t needed
Sleeping with the fishes and it’s making me seasick
Believe this
I am the man with a heavy heart
She a woman with broken parts
Show no remorse
What a shame
How everything we do is a game flame pain
We can pretend that we can start again
I try and give you love which makes it hard again
Tell your friends that we don’t speak
As if it means anything else to me
[Chorus]
And I feel like our worlds are changing
We’re strangers in danger oh no
Oh no
And this aint the same road I’m used to
I refuse to move this on my own
On my own
And it makes me quiver
[Verse 2]
I see colour
Shoot into the treetops
With a freak top that beat box
And maybe it’s the liquor but I feel I’m at the end of the road
With a canister of gasoline and a fire hose
I do it right
A Friday night I should be out with my boys
But guess who making all the noise
I was listening to Stan had a plan till your friend came home with you
So I throw him in with you
Put up a fight and that’s fair enough
‘cause for the first time I ain’t talking tough
I turn the music up and had the windows down
While I drove around in the backseat exactly was the woman I love
Face white as a glove
My guardian angel from heaven above
I pulled up on a slip road walked for a couple of miles
One under each arm took me a while
Found a quiet spot that I liked
Where all our screams would disappear into the night
Don’t fight me please
Don’t make it harder than it has to be
Ten seconds and your body will leave
Wait I can’t breathe
I didn’t pull the trigger
Looked down at my chest and the red grew bigger
Who the hell what the hell just happened
I fell to my knees and that’s when this accent spoke to me
And it was loud and clear
Saw the body of an officer it was hard to hear
Tried to mouth the words as I lay on the floor
I’m sorry I don’t know what for
Time ticking away in this bed I made
Finally I just wasn’t afraid
A million people surround me
I’m glad they found me
Everything is silent the colour disappears
I forget why the hell I’m here I no longer live
