Something about you (repeats) It's indescribable It's something real though Whatever it is isn't present in all people It's something, I don't know can't put my fingers on it Something different about you my mind just lingers on it It's your smile your face the way you speak and what you say you provide escape from my day to day the way you laugh and joke relax and pass the smoke your ever curve line and word has my passion stoked something about you (repeats) When did I know that I needed you anyone could see it who could really keep that secret I never could let go I don't but it seemed like fate and I would dream and wait and I'm so glad I stayed Something sucked me in I couldn't swim against the currents dove in with no insurance finally I got the courage damn the consequences all out of my senses broke down my defenses and I still don't know what it is something about you (repeats)

I been opening my mind Growing all the time You been there right by my side Doing the same for you This dame can do Whatever she don't have to try It's like we're always becoming new people But we still feel the same Go, let me see you move and Grow, learn and tell me everything you Know, don't let me be the one to Slow you down I'll be here if you can't do it on your own Let's intertwine Let's intertwine Let's intertwine Intertwine we don't need to hurry Let's drink some wine You don't have to worry Let's intertwine Let's intertwine I like the way you move we can move it together

I'mma work to be one of a kind I'mma up my amplitude I'mma up my altitude I'mma do me one hundred percent of the time sometimes I gotta act a fool no apologies for my attitude From the worst to best I'mma put the me in mess life is chess but I ain't too good with that I could probably live better if I could do that No need to feed that stress when I can just defeat that stress bet that frest playing by my own set of rules you could do the same you could be a better you who's to say we only got a little bit of time to play I can't tell you how to be but I'mma do it my own way (my own way) who's to say we only got a little bit of time to play I can't tell you how to be but I'mma do it my own way I'mma work to be one of a kind I'mma up my amplitude I'mma up my altitude I'mma do me one hundred percent of the time Sometimes I gotta act a fool no apologies for my attitude
4.	They Talk About 04:18	lyrics	buy track
You could be the one they talk about (repeats) Whether good or bad people want attention Everybody looking for a mention Only so much to go around We all out hoping crowds will stop and listen thickening competition who can cover more ground Population explodes we don't wanna get lost in the shuffle We all competing for your eyes it's a hustle hit the road, selling merch out a duffle Corporate control It's only human not to wanna get forgotten No more selling out only getting boughten Strings attached rich hands won't be dropping You could be the one they talk about (repeats) Please pardon us, culture of narcissists searching for art in this landscape of artifice My araless avatar's part of the problem if you wanna call it that I can give you what you need if you follow back that's a solid fact I need the dopamine followers to lead I need all of that Don't know what you're leading to you can borrow maps some will stay working we can't all relax some of us will stay pushing till we all collapse Population explodes pushing all of us out to the fringes blowing all the old doors off the hinges open gates means more competitions corporate control what other method you expected could get more everybody's bought off but what you went for determines if you're burned or get the big score We do it for the hearts check it when the sun's up get our numbers up somehow I need the outside validation all your adulation but it's never enough now I need the big enough crowds to make thunderous sounds I'd love to hear it all night long I can't tell what I'm worth life is hell on earth tell me if I'm right or wrong I've decided to be alive and free but I don't know what that means keep getting trapped in screens imprisoned by other people's dreams I just wanna be seen (repeats) You could be the one they talk about You could be the one they talk about

Every day you grow even more desirable notice all the little things about you even though I keep thinking there's no deeper I can go there's still another level to you Couldn't resist you when I met you baby You maintain the role of that same sexy lady that I wanna know oh I gotta know I have a need is it possible You're so delicious can I taste your fruit Outta control the way you make me move I've had you every way that you come I been on the same ride for years and it's still just as fun We been up and down round and round met back at the beginning we both know what we're winning you ain't gotta worry about other women nobody knows everything we been through what we do feels so new can't believe it's even you I thought exploring new parts of you would be impossible but I just keep learning new things about you You keep surprising me when I think I know where your thoughts will go I don't know where I would be without you Years ago I had a dream you could be my lover Now you're still a mystery I can't leave uncovered I wanna know I gotta know What's underneath how deep does it go You're so delicious can I taste your fruit Outta control the way you make me move I've had you every way that you come I been on the same ride for years and it's still just as fun We been up and down round and round met back at the beginning we both know what we're winning you ain't gotta worry about other women nobody knows everything we been through what we do feels so new can't believe it's even you

Verse 1: When I met you you were only showing your avatar That polished armor you were wearing isn't all you are I wanna know the passcodes I got time to learn I'll hand over mine - mine when it's my turn Don't worry baby I'll take care of your fragile items so don't push me away Let me in to ease your stress you don't have to be at your best each and every day okay Chorus: Your flaws are the most precious part of you When it all comes into view it's a beautiful thing, all it could ever do is bring me closer to you closer to you Verse 2: You and I are so multi-dimensional Unpolished sides are only natural No need to hide I'm not afraid to let you know I love every puzzle piece I don't expect perfection as an eventual I do wanna see progression and some passion though who you pick to be let in is so intentional I feel so blessed you trust in me don't worry baby I'll take care of your fragile items so don't push me away let me in to ease your stress you don't need to be at your best each and every day okay Chorus
7.	Mistakes 03:01	lyrics	buy track
lyrics Chorus: There's been many days, many days many days I been wrong but you can look past it and still love me and you don't even ask that much of me I've made many mistakes, many mistakes I can't even trust myself but you do Verse 1: They range from the silliest to the villanous you've seen me at my worst I've worked to change Shame just fills me up but you build me up when I'm feeling like I'm cursed you assert my worth - even when it's work my memories mutiny and eat me for dessert can't be reasoned with my mind going all berzerk you were there when I was crawling all through the dirt Pre-chorus: I can feel a little more alright when I look at me with your eyes You show me I'm not defined by those few moments in time it's hard for me to believe you're really seeing me my face in the mirror clearly mean a different thing you show me so much mercy like a deity you're the only person really listening Chorus Verse 2: You and me we made a new life gave me an escape from old lies sometimes I still wanna break eye contact cuz that's where the soul lies don't give myself a break tend to really flip out but you always gave me the benefit of the doubt caged up in my mind unlock it I gotta get out wounded animal bandaged without you would've bled out Prechorus Chorus
8.	Just Breathe 04:01	lyrics	buy track
Verse 1: Borrow my love, borrow my body borrow everything that I have we can dare to share it all, bear it all together it's whatever we can break it in half I never had much to begin with but what I got to gain, you got a claim Pre-chorus1: The pressure of my future on my chest I felt that stress alone But then you came in as a muse and now the view's a little less unknown I used to be so mad but anger don't impress you no I'm not saying you saved me but maybe you just took on a messy role Chorus: you taught me to just breathe it's not a lot to ask, just until the moment pass just breathe breathe in, relax, nothing's really all that bad just breathe, when we feel like we're falling just close our eyes and just breathe Verse 2: I'll open my soul look in my mind you can ask me anything about what you find I'm sick of running away don't wanna hide I wanna share everything that's inside All of my fears, all of my goals All the little things that make me whole and broken asking how to go forward when there's so many things out of my control Pre-chorus2: The pressure of my future on my chest I felt that stress alone but then you came in as a muse and now the view's a little less unkown I used to be so mad but now I'm not aggressive no I'm not saying you saved me but maybe you just took on a messy role Chorus Pre-chorus 2

Verse 1: You're the one that got you there You wanna doubt yourself but don't you dare I was only here if you needed repair I can help you stitch up each and every tear I can lift you up if you need it you got gifts you just don't believe it you're too close to it you can't see it but I mostly witness succeeding all those fears we keeping throw em away we don't need em what we got here's a beacon showing a way to more freedom Chorus 1: We've come a long way a long way We've come a long way a long way Verse 2: I could think of no reason why this won't continue proceeding life grows from where it's been seeded we've planted roots and repeated recanted truths and deleted we stand to prove we both mean it I demand we move with no regress no antidote for a regret we should open up for what we get and don't forget you deserve it we've all got our defects none of us were built perfect what's the cause of our reflex to question if we're worth it I've seen you do it all and put your work in your work in work in seen you put your work in and go Repeat verse 1 Chorus 2: Something deep down deep down I know we got big places to go even if it feels slow we're still on a roll something deep down deep down I know we got big places to go even if it feels slow we're still on a roll
