Don't look up to me
Finding the worst company in every unexpected scene
Don't look up to me
It's always bottles and bottles and wannabe models
But still you went and
Showed up to my sister's birthday with my momma's favorite wine
Don't know how it happened, don't know what I'm s'posed to feel this time
Feel this time
Can we keep it real this time?
I'm changing scenes
Don't look up to me
Holding my face with her fingers retracing each melody
I don't know what she sees
When I can't remember these wannabe tinders,
But still you went and
Showed up to my sister's birthday with my momma's favorite wine
Don't know how it happened, don't know what I'm s'posed to feel this time
Feel this time
Let's both keep it real this time?
I'm changing scenes
Don't know what it means, don't know what it means
But I'm changing scenes
Don't know what to think, I don't know what to think
But I'm changing scenes
Don't look up to me
I'm trying to find the man that I wanna be
I'm trying to find the words
That I wanna speak
But who I am's in every single
Part of me
Wear my heart on my sleeve like it martyrs me
Yo
Quick indecision moronic like oxy
You're sleeping on Sleepless you know you can't stop me
I called her my dame, didn't stay for the doxy
Goddamn it's a shame, made way for the proxy
And now
I can't breathe
And now
I can't sleep
And now
She's going to leave
Cause I'm not
What she needs
So
Sippin champagne really brought all the pain
Except I wasn't sipping you know what I'm sayin
I kept on forgetting the blame I was taking
I've got to do better, these lanes I am changing
I'm changing scenes
Don't know what it means, don't know what it means
But I'm changing scenes
Don't know what to think, I don't know what to think
But I'm changing scenes
Don't look up to me
I get head like a guillotine
But you're seeing the only "good side", I think
Pro'lly wrong, but I know that society
Watch me crash with no help from the hell I bring
But you helpin' me see a thing
How these patterns don't linger
I'll play R&B singer
If you want her don't bring her
Got that thing in the wringer
Used to swim through the trenches of hoes in my mentions
Get all the attention, but you never listened
And now intervention
Having snuck through defenses, I'm left here defenseless
And you 'bout business of helping me witness
'Bout all of what this was
'Cuz all of what this was was nothing but bullshit
Nothing but bullshit, and I tried to push it
But you went right through it to get everything that you get
And I...
Yeah, my heart's in it
You played a big part in it
There ain't no disregarding it
You went really far just to see me escape
And I'm honored, but
Now the seasons have changed, and no, I'm not the same
Don't you call my bluff
Don't you call my bluff

Te Encontré
04:09

Solo quiero conocerte mas y mas
La gente no me importa, gente no me importa
Siento como en el cielo cuando dice te quiero
Cuando dice te quiero
Porque estoy tan feliz que te encontré, mi amor
Porque estoy tan feliz que me encontraste, mi amor
Tus labios quiero besar despacio por debajo
Gritas por mi toque, gritas por mi toque
Quiero, quiero darte todo
Me tendrás para siempre, tendrás para siempre
Porque estoy tan feliz que te encontré, mi amor
Porque estoy tan feliz que me encontraste, mi amor
Y ya tu sabes el mundo puede ser tan frio
Pero cuando te abrazo, todo esta claro
Te necesito al lado de mi
Al lado de mi
Porque estoy tan feliz que te encontré, mi amor
Porque estoy tan feliz que me encontraste, mi amor

Mystery
04:10
|
|||
I look around this whole dark room
And you're the only thing illuminated
I can't tell you what I discussed
I won't tell you how long I waited
You give me all your low-key lust
I just want a high-key lady
I can't resist your sweetest touch
And still you remain
A mystery, a mystery, a mystery
You are
A mystery, a mystery, a mystery
You are
I tell myself you're not the one
I try to make myself believe it
But every time I head back home
I know you're the only one I needed
I'll go 'head and give you a call
You gon' act like you don't even hear it
So I'll sit here and hold my heart
And wonder why you stay
A mystery, a mystery, a mystery
You are
A mystery, a mystery, a mystery
You are
I can't keep doing this to myself, but I don't want nobody else
I can't keep doing this to myself, but I don't want nobody else
I can't keep doing this to myself, but I don't want nobody else
I can't keep doing this to myself, but I don't want nobody else
The lies, the lust, the pain, the trust
It's all we have inside of us
I'm desperate for another path
Trying to find a love that lasts
Even now, you've broken down my pride
I'm laying right here by your side
Can't get away from what we have
When it's hurting me so bad
But I don't want
Nobody
No, I don't want
Nobody
I'm drunk out on this airport floor
I thank the guy who bought my whiskey
I'm thinking 'bout the time we spent
And wondering why you won't stay with me
I give you everything that I have
And you feel like I can't commit
How long's it gonna take before I look you in your eyes and you're not
A mystery, a mystery, a mystery
You are
... matter what I do, I'll still never understand you
It doesn't matter what I do, I'll still never understand you
It doesn't matter what I do...

Demon ft. I Am Stones
03:49

I never knew a pain like when you hurt me
So I refused to let you have of what's left
I know you had a mission just to do me dirty
But that's when you thought there there could be someone else
You broke the throne and cut my hair
So deep within your eyes I stared
I saw you want me with your whole heart
Now I gotta wonder if I'm goin' crazy
My chest inside feels so heavy
Has she earned all my mercy from the start?
Could this be love?
What is this thing I'm feeling
You got my heart revealing all
Ooo girl, you gotta be a demon
'Cuz somehow you're all I wanna hold
Remember that time you said you hate me?
Well, it's really hard for me to hear something else
You never had to do much to persuade me
I can't invalidate the things always felt
You're the answer to my life's question
My mourning and my rising sin
Without you, I don't wanna even try
But you make me feel like I'm crazy
My chest inside feels so heavy
I wanna really keep this thing alive
Could this be love?
What is this thing I'm feeling
You got my heart revealing all
Ooo girl, you gotta be a demon
'Cuz somehow you're all I wanna hold
Uh
I ain’t never felt like this before you
Something bout you just makes me adore you
I ain’t really sure what it is, but
You could be my wife and we could have kids
Sorry if that’s jumpin too far ahead
I’m just writin’ down the thoughts that’s goin’ through my head
Yeah
But let me slow down
I’m just sayin’ that I hate it when you not around
You make me feel like I ain’t never felt
So I wanna show you things that you never seen
Girl, yo’ love a drug and I’m feelin’ like a fiend
These feelings really got me questioning, yeah
Are you an angel or a demon? I don’t know, yeah
I just know that you the one I wanna hold, yeah
Let me hold you tight
Let me hold you tight, girl
Could this be love?
What is this thing I'm feeling
You got my heart revealing all
Ooo girl, you gotta be a demon
'Cuz somehow you're all I wanna hold

Montevallo
04:44
|
|||
We were both connected when your eyes caught mine
My heart losing all its protection on that 8th glass of wine
We were both cheated, we knew we were wrong
But with every kiss of your lips, the temptation was far too strong
Left in our messes, I'm trying to hold on
But I can't seem to hold onto
Montevallo
You were good to me
Montevallo
There's so much more of you to see
The only eclipse that ever mattered was the one where I gave you my heart
Can we go back to the start, Montevallo?
We were just mirrors reflecting ourselves
The glass in us shattered to pieces with me holding what's left
I gave it my best, but I could've been wrong
Sometimes I just feel like you drug me along
But I know I'm free from your misery
Still I come running
But I can't seem to catch up to
Montevallo
You were good to me
Montevallo
There's so much more of you to see
The only eclipse that ever mattered was the one where I gave you my heart
Can we go back to the start, Montevallo?
Laid in mama's arms is where you can find me
Pour more jagerbombs
I don't need reminding
I know what it feels like to be hated for nothing that's in your control
They just let you go
Despite what I know
I still try to hold on
But I can't seem to hold onto
Montevallo
You're no good for me
Montevallo
There's so much more I'll never see
The only eclipse that ever mattered is the one where I lost my heart
We'll never get back to the start
Montevallo

A Song For You
02:22
|
|||
I'm sorry that you feel this way
But I'll try my best to make you feel comfortable
Comfortable
I never thought you'd have a place in my mind
Until that time we talked 'til sunrise
I was lost in your eyes
Too close for comfort can't be good
So I push you away like I think I should
Like you knew I would
I don't mean to disappoint you, but I like where we are right now
We're so very much the same
But so on a different page
You know, I may not feel the same
But I do...
I still think of you
I still think of you
Here's this song that I do
When I think of you

Ships
07:54

Ships docked in harbor, sailing into sea
I sometimes wonder if that's you and me
We tried and tried for it, but we just couldn't meet
Right there in the middle
Oh...
Why, oh why can't we ever be okay?
The lies and the fights always getting in the way
Why, oh why must it always end this way,
Like it's just another day?
Just another day
Ships docked in harbor, sailing into sea
I always wonder if that's you and me
I gave her all my love, and you waited for me
By the time I was ready, oh, you left me to weep
So I have to wonder
Why, oh why can't we ever be okay?
The lies and the fights always getting in the way
Why, oh why is it happening this way?
Guess it's just another day
Just another day
Sailing out to sea at different times
You know I tried to catch you
You know I tried to catch you
Sailing out to sea at different times
You know I tried to catch you
You know I tried to catch you
Sailing out to sea at different times
You know I tried to catch you
You know I tried to catch you
Sailing out to sea at different times
You know I tried to catch you
You know I tried to catch you
