The Government is Afraid
Don’t you know, I’m scared of the reasoning
Behind our love
Some would say that’s refreshing,
I say I’m over, but really afraid
Don’t you know I’m scared of the reasoning
Behind your drugs
Some would say that’s refreshing,
I say the government’s just really afraid
Not sure what to think,
My TV tells me lies.
Not sure what to think,
My TV tells me lies.
Dependance,
That’s how they control our fragile state
Dependance,
I wouldn’t really have it any other way.
Uncle Tom Could Live Forever
I had an uncle Tom
He thought he could live forever
He would always say
This is where I’ll remain
Yesterday, we said, we said goodbye forever
He, he couldn’t speak on anything like love
I, I think it blocked, his heart from feeling our love
I, I think it blocked his eyes from seeing our love
For twenty long long years, he drove his truck down Broadway
Would come home tell me lies, and call them stories
My dad would always say, don’t live like Uncle Tommy
I was always afraid, he was a reflection of me
I, I think it blocked, his heart from feeling our love
I, I think it blocked his eyes from seeing our love
Embrace Learning Instead of School
I’ve been writing,
since the 7th grade
About all the things in my life,
that seem to get in my face
Like all of the schoolwork,
they made me do
Once I left all that shit,
see I, learned how to
break out my comfort,
I look pain in the eyes
I can forgive my lovers,
embrace change over time
See all of that schoolwork,
it messed up my brain
I unlearned my talents
and I was stuck in a frame
Since then I have built up,
so much trust as I seek
I have built love with teachers
and can teach those in need
See I’ve been writing
since the 2nd grade,
I ignored the standard
as I studied away
I’m learning about power
and the history of greed
I read Machiavelli,
and I’m planting the seeds
From pain by the system,
how school fucked my head
But through all the sadness,
I embrace learning instead
The Sun is Chasing Me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me goodbye
The sun is chasing me.
Are they gone? Do you know?
How they figure it?
I need to go have a smoke or a cigarette
Might make a beat or two, if you’re feeling it
But don’t let them know, or they’re killing it!
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me goodbye
Stop and make time
For the things that will stay and linger
Sometimes I don’t know what’s happening
So I’ll write a song when it’s happening
Stop and make time
For the things that will stay and linger
Sometimes I don’t know what’s happening
So I’ll write a song when it’s happening
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me
You’ve caught my eye, but the sun is chasing me goodbye
The sun is chasing me.
Are they gone? Do you know?
How they figure it?
I need to go have a smoke or a cigarette
Might make a beat or two, if you’re feeling it
But don’t let them know, or they’re killing it!
The Story Where I Was Afraid
You,
told me this story where I was afraid
But I,
I looked the other way
We,
Just take part, we play all their games
Feel’s like nothing’s left when you accomplish it
But I know that we can make our way
I,
I wrote all these love songs bout ways that she listens,
But by this time,
Our love it shifted
See Love,
Creates some space, as it grows
So something is left when you accomplish that,
Just make your way

My Day Was Bullshit
I was so scared of saying so
We were afraid of letting go
Ah ah ooooh
This day, this day was bullshit
My boss told me to let it go,
So I let it go behind the closet door
Ah ah oooh
This day, this day was bullshit
24 hours a day, humans slave away, why?
My mom worked since she was 12, there was no other choice
Susie told me to not get involved,
So we sat and listened to petrichor
Ah ah ooooh
This day was bullshit
I find love in the simplest things,
For some, it may take a wedding ring
This place, this place is watching
This system has glitter and gold, to grind you to your bones
But my mom worked since she was 12, there was no other choice
I’m Depressed
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
I’m fucking this boy, he told me he’s sorry
for pain that he’s caused me, he says it’s all okay
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
cause his mind is so fragile
his heart is so tactile
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
cause his mind is so fragile, his heart is so tactile
but they know how to cut it out
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
I’m fucking depressed, I’m fucking depressed
cause he’s fucking that girl, she says that she’s sorry
for that pain that he’s caused me- like it’s all okay
Buzz, That Message
Written by Paul Injeti
Oh oh oh oh
(verse 1)
The words were sad
But the verbiage was so strong
Im weak for days
Cause I’ve waited for so long
Buzz that message
I read it anyway
(verse 2)
The words were lies
And they filled me with self-doubt
Im weak for days
as I’m staring at the clouds
Buzz that message
I read it anyway
(post-verse)
Oh ah oh ah oh
Oh ah oh ah oh
(verse 3)
the girls were loud
as they fiddled with my hair
the boys were proud
of the games to each, they’d dare
that message
well i read it anyway
(verse 4)
her heart was soft
even with my eyes so dim
the walls are shaking as she
tells me about their sins
buzz, that message
well i read it anyway
(post-verse)
oh ah oh ah oh
oh ah oh ah oh
I Met The Wind
Written by Paul Injeti & Jennifer Skinner
(chorus)
I, I met the wind
underneath my skin
we’re, we’re all running
from our mistakes
(verse 1)
but see i, oh I met a toad
his name was Rocky
he told me his story
he said, Yo!
how was your day?
would you come my way?
(pre-chorus)
Bobby told his friend Rocky,
they’ll never stay, stay
but see Rocky, he told his friend Bobby
well that’s okay, hmmm
(chorus)
I, I felt the wind
underneath my skin
we’re, we’re all running
from our mistakes
(verse 2)
I, I met a turtle
he kinda looked like Squirtle, ooh
he said, Yo!
you’re destroying my land
this wasn’t our plan
he said,
my kids will have a brighter day
even if you take it away, ooh
(pre-chorus)
Bobby told his friend Rocky,
they’ll never stay, stay
But see Rocky, he told his friend Bobby
well that’s okay, ho
