No matter what I weigh I am just right
Even if my phone stays silent
All night
Got no hair or shame
I am just right
Used to hate the way I look
Not tonight
(Who am I? Who am I?)
I’m right here
(Where am I? Where am I?)
I’m right here
(Who I am I? Who I am I?)
I’m right here
Let’s accept each other
Starting right here
Look at me baby I’m just right
Look at me baby I’m just right
I’m just right
Skinny fat or fit all eyes on me
Turn my leaf dig up my roots and see
Lick your boot while I turn out and slay
Change your mood get out your coin and pay
(Who am I? Who am I?)
I’m right here
(Where am I? Where am I?)
I’m right here
(Who am I? Who am I?)
I’m right here
Let’s support each other
Starting right here
One two know that I look good on you
Three four panties dropping on the floor
Five six done with my old tricks
Seven eight I’m so good you’ll lick the plate
One two know that I am good for you
Three four look inside my dirty drawer
Five six done with my old tricks

Crazy I’m thinking
Sitting here drinking
World is on fire
Stale old desire
Backed in a corner
Same fucking corner
Back alley feeling
Same fucking feeling
All of this bullshit
White people bullshit
Same fucking song
400 hundred years long
What’s the price of your freedom?
The price of your body?
What’s the price of love?
The price of being alive?
Going downtown
Going downtown to change the world
I’m going downtown
Going downtown to change the world
Something is different
I’m feeling different
I won’t settle in
No I can’t settle in
Unmasking a power
No mask on the power
Out in the streets
Oh this shit is unleashed
Real flesh and flame
Fill arenas with flame
There’s no freedom
Til your version’s the same
I’ll say your name
I’ll say your name

You see me and America a lot alike - we been a mess for a long time
And we both damn good at the cover up - on the surface all is fine
We been ruled by men - they never make it clear intentions in their heart
Burn it up turn it up around again - it’s time to blow that shit apart -
Now blow it up
You see me and America we got a love affair
Not a school yard crush it’s a cold hard rush
It’s a love affair
I’ll fight for ya die for ya
Oh yeah fist in the air
Black or white with open arms
I’ll take you there
Chorus:
Black and white boy and girl - equality
Old and young - they and them- you and me
Raise your hands up in the air - namaste
One big love - one big world - patriot gaymes
And I was scared to change
My comfort in the way things were
But that design of the way things were
It did not benefit everyone
My security familiarity
Well it cost another human being
I don’t need that heritage
It’s time to make a new heritage
One world - one love

This is what I’m thinking
Raw as hell not drinking
Sober as hell just thirsty
Done a lot of dumb shit thirsty
Came on too strong too long- forgive me
Zipping up we ain’t through
Been the same since ‘92
Ever since that day
Can’t get it free I’ll beg to pay
It’s better than to be alone
Rejection over being alone
My whole life I’ve been alone
Look at me my soul is gone
This is what I’m feeling
Take advantage - you stealing
Stagger in late to work
Kill my body pad your purse
Boss you’re drunk as fuck - you’ve got the curse
Sit there smoke watch me work
Feet are bloody my back is hurt
You a doctor diagnosing me
List everything wrong with me
Kiss your ass - I want this job
Bite my tongue - I love this job
Lift you up - stumble down
Fill your glass - put me down
They be punchin’ holes in you
Punchin’ holes in you
For so long
For so long
They be stickin’ knives in you
Stickin’ knives in you
And then they’re gone
Then they’re gone
And then you're lying in your bed
Pops into your head
How they all left you to die
And then you’re driving in your car
Thought you went so far
Til you’re lying on the floor
You say
“Okay, now what…”
Making the choice not to die
You say “okay now what”
Making the choice stay alive
Liar liar pants on fire
You’re no friend you’re a gas lighter
Throwing all the blame on me
I overstepped a little - not totally
Blood on the wall - meet in the hall
And it kills me I still miss it all
Now I wanna be better
Now I wanna be stronger
I’m angry
You betrayed me
Cut me up
Piece by piece
Thread by thread
The death of your ex
Worse than my dad you said
Come in how my house is dirty
My socks are dirty
Your liver’s dirty
Your lungs are dirty
Always trying to circumvent
But your power’s gone how you gonna dent?
Have a drink you always do
Don’t know if I loved or hated you
Might have been indifferent too
Time has come to say
See you see you
(And then you’re driving in your car
Thought you went so far
Til you’re lying on the floor)
You say
“Okay, now what…
Making the choice not to die
You say “okay now what”
Making the choice stay alive
I wanna be better…
Be stronger
(Not gonna fill your glass)
I wanna be better…
Be stronger
(Who’s gonna fill your glass?)

I wanna take a walk outside
I wanna take off my mask
Already got a place to hide
When it’s right you won’t ask
I wanna dance in the rain
For now I’ll watch it from inside
I really hope you’ll be my bae
Been hoping my entire life
One more sky
One more hug
One more party
One more song
One more laugh
Rule the world
Let’s go play
Really hope you’ll be my bae
I wanna run into the wind
I really wanna shake your hand
Already got the perfect life
I just wanna be your wife
I love to dance in the sun
And when I can go outside
I really hope you’ll be my bae
Been waiting my entire life
No goodbyes
Just hellos
I’m a flower
I’m a cloud
Change the world
With your love
Let’s go play
I really hope you’ll be my bae
Is this really where I’m at?
Is this really where we’re at?
Is this really where I’m at?
Is this really where we’re at?
Feel I lost my mind
Everyone lost their mind
Feel I lost my mind
Everyone lost their mind
It’s been a hard year
Don’t trust leadership
Hate my body
Love this county
Never leaving this shit
Things gotta be good
Happy - better
America great again
Me great again
America has never been great
How’s it gonna be great again?
America has never been great
How’s it gonna get great again?

Ain’t the boys from my high school
One that I skinny dipped in his pool
Ain’t the boy up on the mic
Jersey boy vroom vroom on his bike
Ain’t the boys from pizza shop
Metal boy - I was bored just stop
Ain’t the brother of the boy next door
Buffalo boy waste my time no more
Say you want a boyfriend - a real life time boyfriend
But you’ve been a bad boy - you’ve really been a bad boy
Say you want a boyfriend - a real life time boyfriend
But you’ve been a bad boy - you really been a bad boy
Who’s the love of my life?
It ain’t nobody I’ve met yet
Ain’t the one that sang for me naked
One who jumped in my car and take it
Ain’t the boy running with the knife
Loud car boy who spent the night
Batman lead me on
Ain’t nobody that’s turned me on
Ain’t the dork that I met at wings
Vagabond with nylon strings
Rapper - comedian -hippie
Fixed gear boy go ahead and skip me
Aint no ooh la la
None of them got that zig-a-zig-ah
Certified freak like Cardi
He’ll pick you up at Hardee’s
Turn you out at Wawa
Let him be your papa
In a parking lot or a laundry mat
Drop to your knees and meet him out back
Face tattoos - no problem
Wife at home - he’ll call ‘em
(I see you - I wanna dance with you)
Got a felony that is class B?
Gloff don’t care as long as you’re nasty!

Cashing in some old receipts before this song is through
Did you say you’ll be my friend if I stop pushing you
I recall you propositioned me - your wife at home
Should I feel privileged you talk to me - hell no I’m gone
You say that you changed but I know you ain’t changed
You exactly the same - I’m exactly the same
Got a fresh coat of paint say you fixed but you ain’t
Weather gonna peel that paint away
Times change people don’t - wanna stop but I won’t
Same damn song for 30 years
So it’s best that I throw you pretend I don’t know you
I never really dug myself
Don’t like the way you make me feel
Don’t like the way you make me feel
Don’t like the way you make me feel
No instant gratification anymore
Receipt two - say I harassed you - say it to my face
Memories of the bathroom - cooler - hallway been erased?
You were like an addiction I couldn’t stay away
Girlfriends always get the ocean and I get the spray
Did you ever like me I know that you used me
Don’t gotta be public but look at how you do me
I can keep a promise - I don’t mind a secret
But the things you’re telling people oh shit they believe it
Faces change but I don’t - wanna stop but I won’t
Same damn problems for thirty years
So it’s best that I throw you pretend I don’t know you
I’ve never really liked myself
Name on the feed - on the open mic list
Slid in your DM’s and got treated like a bitch
Times I been blocked
Times I been stopped
Begging please please baby just talk to me
You think I like you?
You really think I like you?
Do you think it felt good humiliating myself?
It’s best that I throw you - pretend I don’t know you
I’m gonna try to like myself

Strength was never mine
I’m my worst enemy - wasting time
Finally learning don’t erase the line
I can’t do that shit one more time
You were never mine
I block you unblock you
I block you unblock you
Spit at me - I’d say sorry
Disrespect -I’d say sorry
Verbal smack - I’d run back
You attack - I run back
(And I don’t wanna do it again)
Cause I’m older and fatter
My emotions getting flatter
(and I don’t wanna do it again)
Yeah I’ve got this
Yeah I’ve got this
Ignore me and I’d try
To get a response
My trigger is to get ignored
You silent and I try
To get a reaction
Hate who I am when I am bored
Give myself a surpriser
Though I’m older not much wiser
Still I know how I feel the next day
So I’ve got this
Yeah I’ve got this

Baby face and an angel smile
I been with you the whole while
Meet me down on Main Street
Always loved you
And I hope that you are safe
And I hope that you are warm
Word on the street is that
You have gone home
Wanna make a connection
Broken doll collection
Wanna make a connection
Broken doll collection
Elmwood Ave and the Buffalo freeze
Damn life brings you to your knees
90s went by with a sneeze
Always loved you
Got your smell and I got your walk
Deep deep voice when I hear you talk
Tina Turner you laughed like hell
Always here can’t say farewell
And he flies - and he flies…

Only wanted
You to hold my hand
Knew you were on your way
So I changed my sheets
Up the stairs
Through the door
Gave you eyes
Sat on the floor
No control over what I do
Curtains shut
Pulled me onto you
At my door
What’d you come here for
At seventeen
You take all you can
30 years later
Those first times they fucked me up
Secrecy and shame
Was the time of the world - no one to blame
Deal with the devil
Mercy of the universe
Never “the right way”
Swipe swipe
Refresh refresh refresh
Open the door
Happy for you and your husband
There you are with your beautiful husband
Got a life you love - got a man
Want the things you got - don’t think I can
Trauma -started off as trauma
Then became addiction
Then became my norm
I want your life but I’m so damn worn
I never change - never change
I’m in the gutter - in the drain
With my secrets - my alleys - my deep dark valleys
I manipulated them all - I sure got what I wanted
They left every single time…
Open the door
Take the latch off the door
Ain’t it something how demons come of age
From silent traumas that break us
Behind that curtain’s up on stage
Skin begins to loosen, the hair begins to fall now
Shame, regrets and questions - don’t recognize ourselves at all
We tried to keep it back, but a lock and key can’t hold, now
Devoured by fears of things that we left untold now
That dirty secret - skeletons - we gotta crack open this tomb
Grind them down to tinder, burn to dust under a new moon
Only wanted you to hold my hand
Knew you were on your way so I changed my sheets
Said to stop before we were through
Cause it’s not what you want to do
Why lay down
Turn off my light
Come in my house?
Know what I’m like
Still in the gutter but I want the stars
Forgive my scars

What’s up pop may you rest in peace
Got a few unanswered questions see
Here I am at your funeral gotta shake the hands
Of your friends from the bars
Your friends from the bands
Got mixed emotions about this town
Got a picture of the family all grown up
Really thought we could be great friends
I’m confused how this ends
So confused how this ends
(Searching for a heart of gold…)
Pay my bills with daddy’s money
Pay my car with daddy’s money
And I even bought a microphone
Got guitar with daddy’s money
Took a trip with daddy’s money
And I’m paying off all my loans
Bought a couch with daddy’s money
Kitchen table daddy’s money
But it makes me a little sad
Had to fight for daddy’s money
Only thing with all his money
Is I’ll never say “I love you dad”
Pop I know you a funny man
We all got addictions - do the best we can
Raised to sweep it under the rug
I know it hurt you a lot when I spoke up
And a phantom trail leads me to this place
Father son and daughter share the same space
Were you the best friend I never knew
Happy birthday to you
Merry Christmas to you
(Searching for a heart of gold…)
Pay my bills with daddy’s money
Pay my car with daddy’s money
And I even bought a microphone
Got guitar with daddy’s money
Took a trip with daddy’s money
And I’m paying off all my loans
Bought a couch with daddy’s money
Kitchen table daddy’s money
But it makes me a little sad
Had to fight for daddy’s money
The only thing with all his money
Is I never said “I love you dad”

Americaddicted
Don’t wanna feel at all
Americaddicted
Don’t wanna hurt at all
Symptomatic
So dramatic
All the static
Another friend down
Charismatic
The end is tragic
Anti-climatic
Another friend down
Addicted
Afflicted
Fentanyl
Tricked it
Americaddicted
Don’t wanna feel at all
Americaddicted
Don’t wanna hurt at all
Medicated
All sedated
Obliterated
Another one down
Hide the pain
Numb the stain
What remains
Another one down
And I’ve left behind
What means the most
And I’ve given in
To an abusive host
I had no chance to say goodbye
And even though, for all I tried
My heart stopped beating
A dead flatline
I never got to say goodbye
This could be anyone
This could be all of us
So many ways in
Please don’t blame yourself
Can you grab reaching hands and
Claw your way out alive
Don’t wanna feel at all
Don’t wanna hurt at all
And so we fight to save America
And we fight to save ourselves
Against the same enemies
Hypocrisy
Addiction
Low self esteem
Bigotry
Fucking systematic oppression
The strength of our country
And our souls
At stake
This is why we’re fucked up
The fight is renewed
The chase has begun
We are in battle
Hide and seek
The shadowy enemies
Within this land
Within ourselves
Fucking dead in the eyes
Americaddicted
No pain
(I didn’t expect this to be my last hit)
Americaddicted
No shame
(I didn’t expect to die to this shit)

Held down - can’t get up
Silence - can’t speak up
Big fire - burning up
Time’s up - enough’s enough
(Fire in the street tonight)
I've been in rage since he was face down
Let me pause take a breath
Premature death, now I’m left feeling down for the count
Was about 9 minutes when it left
Or rather it was taken, deprived
He was out cold, didn’t attempt to revive
Pinned to the floor, didn’t hope he survived
Others didn’t speak for a code they align with
I hope for revival
Oh oh oh feed the world together
Oh oh oh it’s gotta change forever
There were times my brothers and sisters
I didn’t speak up when I should have - no
Where’d the human decency?
The right to eat?
The right to breathe go?
(We just wanna be the light)
I give glory when glory do
Say my neighbor got a story too
You never know what he going through
You wanna feed the world said I’m going to
Got a heart full of gold Imma pay it forward
Any problems that I got I give it to the lord
Looking out for the peace we all want accord
See the smile on their face really gives us joy
Burn it up
Turn it up
Wear it down
Stare it down
Enough is enough
We don’t wanna face defeat - we face the evil
Darkness face defeat - elevate my people
There cannot be another way
If we wanna see the brighter day
We cannot turn and walk away
We gotta feed the world together

Technicolor (Luv Remix)

All the sleepless nights
Dark ages and meteorites
The value of mistakes
Rebuilding from earthquakes
No more black and white
No more black and white
I’m in color
Technicolor
Memories of rages
Blank pages empty stages
The importance of a fail
And those who survived to tell the tale
No more black and white
No more black and white
I’m in color
Technicolor
No more black and white
No more black and white
I’m in color
Technicolor
Blue skies
And technicolor

What Friends Do
03:44

Hey
Everyone said you're nice
You did not think twice
Sharing your number with
My trick
Problematic - I was destructive
Situation - so combustive
Every single guy I bring
Is up for grabs - is that your thing?
On the fence don't take a side
Bullshit getting normalized
I can forgive
But I will never forget
Hey
Say you love me so much
Best friend - keep in touch
Emails
Third party messages
Talk the talk - it's all made up
Ghosting me - you don't show up
Bestie's funeral - no face time
Bullshit bullshit bullshit line
When it counts it feels like you're punching a clock
I can not forget
What friends do
Ain't nothing without your crew
Pick it up when they slipping through
Gotta do the do
What friends do
Keep it real and keep it true
Never put a stranger in front of you
Bitch - toodle loo
Hey
That 90s band again
You had my back back when
Thought you were my brother
Betrayed a motherfucker
Call you out - won't smile and take it
It's not my fault all you did is fake it
Made you money
Gave you time
Call me immature because I speak of your crimes
What friends do
Ain't nothing without your crew
Pick it up when they slipping through
Gotta do the do
What friends do
Keep it real and keep it true
Never put a stranger in front of you
Bitch - toodle loo
Hate it hate it hate it that you're not my friend
Hate it hate it hate it fuck me again
Hate it hate it hate it that I feel so bad
Sitting here feeling sad
Hate it hate it hate it that you're not my friend
Hate it hate it hate it fuck me again
Hate it hate it hate it that I feel so bad
Not gonna sit here feeling sad

Starting right here
One two know that I look good on you
Three four panties dropping on the floor
Five fix done with my old tricks
Seven eight I’m so good you’ll lick the plate
One two know that I am good for you
Three four look inside my dirty drawer
Five six done with my old tricks
