[Verse 1: Sean Vieyra] Every time I have me an epiphany I slay the beat like it's Christmas Eve I release dopamine naturally In my brain head shot like a casualty Ask the bartender for another Do you mind if I talk to you about my troubles If I talk about my girl will you still listen Can I still get your number can we still kick it Feel like I got the weight of the world on me And I'm still asking who's really my homie I admit it that I like being lonely You talk a good game can you really show me [Chorus: Jeremy Short] When the weight of the world Is on my shoulders and I can't bear it Could you help me out girl Could you care for me When the whole wide world Is filled with trouble and it's so scary Could I help you out girl Be your security [Verse 2: Jeremy Short] If I gave you my number would you give me a call Gave you a compliment you didn’t thank me at all If I wasn’t getting paid, couldn’t take you to the mall Could I take you on a date, we could lay under the stars I could tell you bout my life, I wanna ask about yours You said you got problems, and when it rains it pours That thunder and lighting doesn’t scare me at all I’ll trek through the storm just to be at your door [Chorus] When the weight of the world Is on my shoulders and I can't bear it Could you help me out girl Could you care for me When the whole wide world Is filled with trouble and it's so scary Could I help you out girl Be your security

Glad 2 C U 02:12
I was so glad to see you I hope you never come around again I was so glad to see you I hope you never come back my friend One time Two times Three times Four times Five times Six times Seven times Bye bye Tommy said he was a lover Just wanted peace for his brothers Out in the streets by his lonely Pulled out his piece and unloaded Tommy oh Tommy boy Tommy's dead Tommy oh Tommy boy They put the gun to his head When will they ever learn When will they ever be one When will they open their arms When will they spread the love

Outside 01:02
Who the hell write these bars Who the hell made this beat Man I really love that snare When it goes that sounds so sweet Who the hell stealing my flow Who the hell stealing my speech Boy you better close your mouth Zip your lips, shut your teeth Don't go exposing me I am anonymous I am the mastermind That is behind all of the hits We get the same results It makes you stop and think Who is really behind Everything that we've come to know You only see it from the outside You only see it from the outside Got your perspective When you gonna learn your lesson Everything ain't what it seems No everything ain't what it seems now You only see it from the outside You only see it from the outside Got your perspective When you gonna learn your lesson Everything ain't what it seems Cause you can't see behind the scenes now You can't see behind the scenes now You can't see behind the scenes

[Chorus: Sir "Boogie" Hendrixx] I ain’t tryna hear you complaining I don’t really care what you’re saying I just want love but you must hate me Cuz you just make life complicated I ain’t tryna hear you complaining Ain’t nobody got time for that I don’t really care what you’re saying Ain’t nobody got time for that [Verse 1: Jeremy Short] I ain’t got time For you all in my ear Moaning and groaning About something I don’t wanna hear I ain’t got time For your problems and tears Moping and groping About something that happened last year I ain’t got time For you calling my dear Texting me stressing About some irrational fear Everybody got problems Everybody needs help But you can only help somebody If they help themselves [Chorus: Sir "Boogie" Hendrixx] I ain’t tryna hear you complaining I don’t really care what you’re saying I just want love but you must hate me Cuz you just make life complicated I ain’t tryna hear you complaining Ain’t nobody got time for that I don’t really care what you’re saying Ain’t nobody got time for that [Verse 2: Jeremy Short] I ain't got time I ain't got time So I ask myself How in the world am I gonna find peace With you hovering over my every move You're just a girl that's been acting so sweet That nobody would ever expect it from you You're mad that I'm right, even more when I'm wrong I'll pass on the fight, you can hold your tongue Asking if I got time What's the name of the song [Chorus: Sir "Boogie" Hendrixx] I ain’t tryna hear you complaining I don’t really care what you’re saying I just want love but you must hate me Cuz you just make life complicated I ain’t tryna hear you complaining Ain’t nobody got time for that I don’t really care what you’re saying Ain’t nobody got time for that

[Verse 1: Yung Midgey] Woke up bout 6 It is what it is Early bird gets the worm But I think that’s a myth Cuz I’ve been sitting around And I ain’t done shit My momma yelling Midgey When you gonna get a job When you gonna help around the house And quit being a slob But I picture I’m on top I picture I’m on top But just last night I was running from the cops I grabbed my jacket hit the door And dismiss what she said Walking down the sidewalk To get it out of my head I was thinking about last night And ran into my friend He seen me last night Running from the law He told a different story And this is what he saw [Chorus: Jeremy Short] When you gonna grow up When you gonna act your age Don't you know better Don't play those games You need to get a job Make that change Karma catch up When you hit that stain When you gonna grow up When you gonna act your age Don't you know better Don't play those games You need to get a job Make that change Karma catch up When you hit that stain [Verse 2: Jeremy Short] Woke up bout 6 It is what it is Smoke a little bit Of that cannabis But I still get my work done Still get my bills paid Still have enough time To have fun in the day I don’t stay out late cuz nothing good goes on Last night I couldn’t get my hunger switch to go off Had to hit the store that’s when I saw both cops Why you running down the one ways with your clothes off? Man to man, friend to friend I ain’t tryna see your buttcheeks again Knocking on those doors screaming please let me in Ain’t gonna work when you look indecent Now they add flight to avoid and resisting arrest And your momma bail you out and you still ain’t clean your piss Off the toilet seat at home and now she’s freaking pissed So she turns this song on and sings the chorus [Chorus: Jeremy Short] When you gonna grow up When you gonna act your age Don't you know better Don't play those games You need to get a job Make that change Karma catch up When you hit that stain When you gonna grow up When you gonna act your age Don't you know better Don't play those games You need to get a job Make that change Karma catch up When you hit that stain [Verse 3: Sean Vieyra] Woke up at six It is what it is Gotta go through the struggle Gotta go dig Deep with a shovel Real deep within Got a big fam I ain't got no friends Tryna make ends til the end of my days How the fuck I'm supposed to live off minimum wage When you go and find the answer come and talk to me Hundred miles and running come and walk with me Not everybody got the dedication When the bullshit comes I embrace it I ain't afraid of the struggle I ain't afraid of pain I know who I am And I know my name I know it all like the back of my hand I know who I am as a motherfucking man And I go take my stand for what I believe Young Sean V man I'm hanging out with Jeremy And my little homie Midgey man that's my little bro Ya'll already know how it go When it comes down to it Who's down go to go do it Everybody loves to talk But they ain't down to go through it [Chorus: Jeremy Short] When you gonna grow up When you gonna act your age Don't you know better Don't play those games You need to get a job Make that change Karma catch up When you hit that stain When you gonna grow up When you gonna act your age Don't you know better Don't play those games You need to get a job Make that change Karma catch up When you hit that stain

Just a Dream 02:26
[Chorus] And they say it's just a dream And for them it might be But this is what we work for It's why we stay up nightly Too many long days gone by For me to wonder why I never took my chance I'd rather stick to the plan [Verse 1] To kick raps, kick raps Making them beats So I could sit back, sit back Lay on the beach I want the finer things in life I want everything I seek If I could pick love, pick love Then she's beside me I want her bad So much it hurts me I want her back But I don't deserve it My conscience says That I'm not worthy I can't listen I just gotta keep working [Chorus] And they say it's just a dream And for them it might be But this is what we work for It's why we stay up nightly Too many long days gone by For me to wonder why I never took my chance I'd rather stick to the plan [Verse 2] Louis V, Balenci-aga Gucci, and Fendi I do not need any I'd rather save up my pennies Switched the beamer for a civic Switched it up to an electric board Now I ride around Without a care in the world When I first started rapping Couldn't catch my breath Now I catch attention From your girl and all her friends When I'm at the party There's no drink in my hand Girls always acting naughty So when you hate I understand [Chorus] And they say it's just a dream And for them it might be But this is what we work for It's why we stay up nightly Too many long days gone by For me to wonder why I never took my chance I'd rather stick to the plan [Bridge] And follow my heart, my intuition I don't know why I ever doubted myself Watch everything come into fruition The moment that I believe in myself [Chorus] And they say it's just a dream And for them it might be But this is what we work for It's why we stay up nightly Too many long days gone by For me to wonder why I never took my chance I'd rather stick to the plan

Easy 03:15
[Verse 1] If I said it Then I meant it I bet you get it All of the time Cuz you read it I get the message When you never Sent a reply [Chorus] You say It’s really not that easy You say I’m always trying too hard [Verse 2] I get it I’ll never get you But it’s a blessing Hid in disguise I was stressin’ But why settle When I do better Than these other guys [Pre-Chorus 1] And I say What’s on my mind and back it up And you are Exactly what I want but [Chorus] You say It’s really not that easy You say I’m always trying too hard [Verse 3] Never betting On the weather I will get there Whether rain or shine I’ll protect you Be your shelter From the danger Invading your mind [Pre-Chorus 2] And I may Find another girl like you But I pray That I end up with [Chorus] You say It’s really not that easy You say I’m always trying too hard
