Smile
Smile
can't you see I'm still me anti-authority
same philosophy
enjoying life as much as I can I will
trying to create that contagious smile
With that passion that I long to succeed in my ways
days pass by
I'm not gonna sit here no more no more no more
more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Won't you see you're not me why would you want to be
You're an individual
On your own
Do what you want
'Cause you want to
Trying to create that contagious smile
With that passion that I long to succeed in my ways
days pass by
I'm not gonna sit here no more, no more, no more
more, no more, no more, no more, no more
trying to create that contagious smile
that I long to succeed in my ways
days pass by
I'm not gonna sit here no more
no more no more no more no more

Again & Again
sick and angered by my friends
Extremely cold and heartless
Talkin' shit behind my back about me
To my friends the source
A jealous passion towards a spirit stuck in contention and fame
Just need some time to myself
Again
Need to bring back the old days when I
Was in control of my life again and again
Just endangered with my friends
Extremely bold and
Honest I'll be when it comes to me
I said I'm sorry, but you don't hear me
Just need some time to myself
Again
Need to bring back the old days when I
Was in control of my life again and again
I tried to say that I was sorry to you
But you don't think I speak honestly
That's ok 'cause I can move on now
I'm so sorry
No
Just need some time to myself
Again
Need to bring back the old days when I
Was in control of my life again and again
Just need some time to myself
Again
Need to bring back the old days when I
Was in control of my life again and again

Emotional Times
Life sucks sometimes
Friendships turn to lies
A hatred in disguise
It brings tears to my eyes
I can see the truth from the neutral side
In my mind
Confusion cripples me
Unto my element
Of control unsureness
Emotional times I'm just
Trauma's etched in my mind
I can see it all the time
I've seen more than my share of pain and suffering
I'm just fine
Respecting something more than nothing
All the time
And it's time to move on
Emotional times, I'm just fine
I have seen my faith sailing away
And I have seen my faith's coming back to me
I can see it comin' back to me
I can see it comin' back to me
I can see it
I can taste it
I can live it 'cause I'm just fine
Emotional times, I'm just fine
Emotional times, I'm just fine

Now
Well I need to be around you
And I need to see your eyes on me now
'Cause I need to caress your face with mine
And I need to know that you care
'Cause I bleed in pain when I am without your soul
'Cause I love you on a level so high
It's hard sometimes I know (It's hard sometimes I know)
It's hard sometimes I know (It's hard sometimes I know)
I'm so me around you (I'm so me around you)
I'm so me around you (I'm so me around you)
We have to be together
Now....Now....Now....Now....
Now....Now....Now....Now....
I'll miss you while I'm gone
But here now is where I belong
Will you wait around for me
Well I hope so 'cause without each other we're wrong
It's hard sometimes I know (It's hard sometimes I know)
It's hard sometimes I know (It's hard sometimes I know)
I'm so me around you (I'm so me around you)
I'm so me around you (I'm so me around you)
We have to be together
Now....Now....Now....Now....
Now....Now....Now....Now....
I'll miss you while I'm gone
But here now is where I belong
Will you wait around for me
Well I hope so 'cause without each other we're wrong
Now....Now....Now....Now....
Now....Now....Now....Now....

1 Nite Stand
I've come to grips
come to grips
Unreality through fatality
Realized just how much happiness brings to me
Fight
Lately doubt and worries inflicted my mind with an illness of ego
The worst of its kind
Been so busy, unhappy, unnerved
I can see my destiny is chasing me
I'm finally happy and ready to go
I had a one night stand with myself last night
The fright of a lifetime
Once again I have proven my strength to myself
On my own

Believed
Frankly modest speech dishonest
Eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky
Hovering carcass moulding earth
Filthy birth afterlife
Friction based upon fiction
Replacing friendship
Untrueness, speculation, concentration
Heresy is controlling us
All
This flagrant foul stench upon us
Overwhelming everybody like an imaginary forklift brother
You point your finger as a scolding motherfucker sucker
Blaming evil upon another under that pedastal
You hold yourself so high above us
I can't imagine what it's like to not give a shit about nothin'
Live the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their
Individuality
Separating us all
I can't believe my friends would make such a lie
Even though it is I that dishonored your trust
But it's done
I can't change the past
I'm gonna make us last
Just believe in me and I'll show you that they're nothing true
They point their fingers as a scolding motherfucker sucker
Blaming evil upon another under that pedastal
They hold theirselves so high above us
I can't imagine what it's like to not give a shit about nothin' but they're
Frankly modest, speech dishonest
Eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky
Live the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their
Individuality
Separating us all
You're frankly modest your speech dishonest
Your eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky
You're frankly modest your speech dishonest
Your eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky
Live
Live the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their
Individuality
Separating us all
Live the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their
Individuality
Separating us all

Mentobe
It's ironic
Considerate rarity patron of love
Higher knowledge engulfs me
'Cause the blast of fate a lesson
To my eyes concerned and overwhelmed
Theirs were of fear and I'm feelin' so empty inside
And yet it burns so awkward this time
It's something with my pride, lies
I cannot hide my true side
And maybe in distress I can still come out laughing
That's the way I am
This little boy
Proud of helping those in need
But he's not me
But just maybe he could be
I can see it now because
I'm a hero to his eyes
Temporarily blind
This immature kid a spirit as well as a motha fuckin angel
Hiding by helping and wanting to understand me
Tears a waterfall of acid cries from his eyes
I need to recognize
It's meant to be
oh no
It's something with my pride lies
I cannot hide my true side
And maybe in distress I can still come out laughing
That's the way I am
Am I hard to recognize
What do I need to realize
Why can't I see through my own fuckin' eyes
What do I need to see
see
It's something with my pride lies
I cannot hide my true side
And maybe in distress I can still come out laughing
That's the way I am
Am I hard to recognize
What do I need to realize
Why can't I see through my own fuckin' eyes
What do I need to see

I
I'm seeing tunnel vision in a world that's dark and cold
I can't believe how much I've changed since the days of old
I know it's temporary but I need to focus straight
I can't believe I'd lost control of my fate
I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out
I'm gonna win I can't afford to blow this one
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
I need this way of life because it holds me
I hate myself sometimes I love myself
Contradiction's the way of life, happiness is wealthiness is healthy
Now that I've made it through those lies and deceit
I think what's done is done and I can't complain anymore
I'm sure that I have found myself again it feels great
I can't believe I'd lost control of my fate
I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out
I'm gonna win I can't afford to blow this one
I hate myself sometimes, I love myself
I need this way of life because it holds me
I hate myself sometimes I love myself
Contradiction's the way of life, happiness is wealthiness is healthiness
I hate myself sometimes I love myself
Contradiction's the way of life, happiness is wealthiness is healthiness
I hate myself sometimes I love myself
Contradiction's the way of life, happiness is wealthiness is healthiness
I hate myself sometimes I love myself
Contradiction's the way of life, happiness is wealthiness is healthiness

Mirror's Reflection
I'm your mirror's reflection
What you don't like about me
Is what you hate in yourself
You should see through others' eyes
Before you go ahead and make 'em feel like shit
But you won't
Because you hate yourselves images bitch
Sometimes I get so frustrated
Haunting visions in the back of my mind
No you struck a pose with your hand extended
Open arms in an idio-cratic ways
You try to lie to yourself
But you can't break through that sacred wisdom
Of your spirit of your wisdom of your spirit
Used me but you don't want to know me
Used me but you don't know
I see the truth upon that pedastal's frowning down upon me
Like a trophy valued by masses of minds
Are closed to a variety and change in a life so bland and boring
Uncontent living through others learning from nothing true and nothing real
You try to lie to yourself
But you can't break through that sacred wisdom
Of your spirit of your wisdom of your spirit
Used me but you don't want to know me
Used me but you don't know
Sometimes I would give anything just to be something more
Sometimes I would give anything just to be something more
Something more
Sometimes I would give anything just to be something more than nothing
Something more than nothing
Sometimes I would give anything just to be something more
Sometimes I would give anything just to be something more
Sometimes I would give anything just to be something more
Sometimes I would give anything just to be something more

Dragged Down
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck-up that's true
But you're the only one I'll turn to by my side
Every day and night it's time to climb out of this big black hole
Even if I can justify that I'm alive and alright
You're still the only one I'll turn to by my side
Every day and night it's time to climb out of this big black hole
So I cry alone
So I cry alone
I can't believe you'd drag me down again
Just when I think that I'm fine
I always then realize
That I'm the only one to turn to me inside
Every day and night it's time to climb out of this big black hole
So I cry alone
So I cry alone
I can't believe you'd drag me down again
So I cry alone
So I cry alone
I can't believe you'd drag me down again
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck-up that's true
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck-up
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck-up that's true
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a person
So I cry alone
So I cry alone
I can't believe you'd drag me down again
So I cry alone
So I cry alone
I can't believe you'd drag me down again

Comeback
ill times rollin' lackin' the flow
Ache in my throat and wisdom seems so lost
And yet it's better in ways it's different
I miss those old school meditations when relaxing and getting visions was a given
I propose a toast to myself to find the time to ask my lord and galaxy to
Come back to me
Please come back
I need to say goodbye to these old ways
Stagnant lifestyle's no longer in my way
I need to keep on movin'
So I pray and wait for a sign from my guides
They help me proceed as I lay
And dream of my future
I miss those times
Come back to me
Come back to me
Please come back to me please
Please come back to me please
Been so busy lately achieving what I need so in a way it's replacing the old
It's different but that's ok because I feel the need for change again it's time to
Come back to me
Please come back
I need to say goodbye to these old ways
Stagnant lifestyle's no longer in my way
I've gotta keep on movin'
so I pray and wait for a sign from my guides
they help me proceed as I lay
and dream of my future
I miss those times
so I pray and wait for a sign from my guides
they help me proceed as I lay
and dream of my future
I miss those times

Please come back to me please
Please come back to me please

Please come back
