Are you running back
Because I don’t want that
I’m not going in a circle
I could leave it purple
I’m only running forward
You might be going shoreward
If that’s the case
I’m going away
I’m not into running back
That’s not where love is at

Happy Times
Look for happy times
Look for happy rhymes
Look for high vibes
Look for high scribes
We don’t have time for the low vibes
We don’t have the words to describe
We are on the highest high
With the vibest vibe
Try to reach us
Your danger tried to breach us
But we are backed and supported
Even though we have been distorted
I’m not going
I’m not going to jail
I’ve spent my time in hell
I can’t breathe there
There’s no me there
I’m staying in my peace
It’s what I can control at least
You can go to jail
Or stay in hell
But I refuse to go there
I refuse to leave me there
Love everyday
We need love everyday
We need It to make it on our way
Some people are looking for that love
It comes from above
The sun shines and I know love
The water comes and I know love
Love is in the small things
That the world brings
Love is in a kind word
Love is not that absurd
Love must win
If it doesn’t who have we let in
Let love flow through our veins
Let love take the reins
We need It now
We need It like wow
I am in the lead
I take the lead and you are on the path with me
If I didn’t take the lead where would we be
You would lead us to something before our time
You could be ready now but you don’t have a rhyme
Or even even a reason for this season
I envision years ahead
And you wake up late out the bed
When you have a path maybe you can lead
But I’m still looking for the deed
If you lead where will we go
I’m afraid you don’t know
So maybe it’s time to lead someone else’s mind
Your prepared and ready
I’m going to have to remain steady
Because I like where I’m going
I’m going to start glowing
Love alone
Your love would put me first
Your love wouldn’t hurt
But you came in and hurt me
But it’s my fault
I put you in the middle
I let you play second fiddle
I should have walked away
But that’s what I’m doing today
Keep your sadness to yourself
Or for someone who could help
Ask for it and you shall receive
This isn’t love couldn’t be
Who you are
I dont know who you are
You’ve gone away really far
Today I couldn’t get dub
Yesterday I couldn’t get love
If there’s nothing here
Tell me so
I’ve been better than you ever deserved
That is the word
A stressed out place
An unwinnable race
If you’re on the wrong team
I understand why you are mean
If this is the secret
I understand why you keep it
But you could tell me
Because you are sending two the hard way
And that is me and baby
Losing game
Losing game
Always the same
I feel it Now
And this is how
I lost too many times
The bell still chimes
When does the loss end
I’m looking for the bend
That takes me to a better place
Where I don’t have to save face
I’ve lied too much
To run from your touch
It’s not supposed to hurt like this
I’m waiting for partial bliss
1000 years
1000 of years old
As good as gold
We’ve been told
Love last for a 1000 years
Not so many tears
Love will always be there
Sometimes we can’t help but stare
We wonder if it’s in the eyes
But maybe it’s more wise
We are trying to find it
Some of us trying to lose it
Now is the time to really use it
Not run away cause we’re afraid
In your eyes
I can see the lies in your eyes
Sometimes I see them in my dreams
Do you know what that means?
I can see the lies before they happen
You think my heart hasn’t been flattened
It will never rise again
I don’t even know what It is to win
You don’t either
You’ve been eating up women like a preacher
Maybe you realized it was all a lie
That you were telling yourself
Because you needed something else
Something that we didn’t have
So don’t be mad
Because you don’t match the standards you’ve set
They were really your parents standards you’ve kept.
