bruh_itsbree The first song that had me absolutely hooked on MC. This, OH Chicago, and Falling Up And Breaking Down have to be three of my all time favorites. Favorite track: When Friends Become Enemies.

Woodrow Cope More of a fan of everything up until after Terminal and hope there is somewhat of a return to form on the new stuff, but at least its good to have access to the old stuff again Favorite track: Fly Away.

Oh this is long overdue To write a song about you Don't you think that I've left you in the spotlight And don't you think that I'll let this flag wave white So I guess your ignorance is bliss 'Cause if you opened your eyes You're the last thing that I miss I swear to God I'll pull this trigger on you My tongue can spit words that will prove You got not one bone in your body To impress anyone but your pity I've not forgot the words that you've said I've buried them in my own head I'll watch them grow to things that I won't let go Oh I know you know me better than myself 'Cause I never knew I tried to be anybody else Next time my name goes past those crooked teeth Make sure you're lying right in front of me So I guess I'm nothing without you If that is true You're nothing without me I swear to God I'll pull this trigger on you My tongue can spit words that will prove You got not one bone in your body To impress anyone but your pity I've not forgot the words that you've said I've buried them in my own head I'll watch them grow to things that I won't let go This is where friends become enemies I swear to God I'll pull this trigger on you My tongue can spit words that will prove You got not one bone in your body To impress anyone but your pity I've not forgot the words that you've said I've buried them in my own head I'll watch them grow to things that I won't let go

I've got you tied up in my words I've got plenty of them But not one I could keep Now I'm tied up in your eyes They reassure me I'm losing you I've lost you Come back Ilene I've been waiting patiently for you to realize That you miss my company Take a chance Cause there's no point waiting "I'm moving on" is all I hear you saying Why can't life be fair? Home is where the heart is Who am I kidding? If you not here I'm just fibbing This smile just hides all the frowns I got portraits of you on my wall I've been singing songs saying its my fault I swear I could do this on my own I still feel the way I did back then It's just complicated I'm doing the best that I can And I swear I'm a changed man Come back Ilene I've been waiting patiently for you to realize That you miss my company Take a chance Cause there's no point waiting "I'm moving on" is all I hear you saying Why can't life be fair? Well I've lost all motivation now Scream out about my mistakes And how you meant the world and more to me (You meant the world to me) Well I'm sorry about all I've ever said I grantee it's all misinterpreted I just hope your listening Goodbye Ilene I've been waiting patiently for you to realize That you miss my company Take a chance Cause there's no point waiting "I'm moving on" is all you hear me saying Why can't life be fair? Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh ohhhhh Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh ohhhh Why can't life be fair?

Fly Away 03:57
I know it's hard to keep on breathing I know looks can be deceiving Your broken heart It's still bleeding I know you don't want to fall in love again Girl, just give it one more chance I'm a different kid Than the one back then Let's fly away Let this beat grow us wings Let's fly away We will never ever come down We'll sing till our lungs cave in We'll dance until the world ends Let's fly away Just dance To the rhythm of this drum I'll keep you safe under my arms Just you and me till the break of dawn Oh he Won't ever find us here I know it's hard to believe I'll take you to a world you've never seen Let's fly away Let this beat grow us wings Let's fly away We will never ever come down We'll sing till our lungs cave in We'll dance until the world ends Let's fly away Raise your glass way up high Hello today Kiss yesterday goodbye Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Raise your glass way up high Hello today Kiss yesterday goodbye Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Let's fly away Let this beat grow us wings Let's fly away We will never ever come down We'll sing till our lungs cave in We'll dance until the world ends Let's fly away

You may call me a dreamer (Ohhhh ohh oh) Though you know that all to well You may call me a believer (ohhhh ohh oh) Even though it's hard to tell 'Cause I know I'm fading And I know I'm losing everything you loved about me But don't let me go I can build the pieces of everything I broke Just hold it against me I never said this would be easy But I'll try oh I'll try yes believe me Keep your faith in me No one will ever understand (ohhhh ohh oh) The feeling of losing things right in the palm of your hand Now I know what it's like to be a man (ohhhh ohh oh) It's when you lose your legs you still fight to stand 'Cause I know I'm fading And I know I'm losing everything you loved about me But don't let me go I can build the pieces of everything I broke Just hold it against me I never said this would be easy But I'll try oh I'll try yes believe me Keep your faith in me No one will ever understand (ohhhh ohh oh) The feeling of losing things right in the palm of your hand Now I know what it's like to be a man (ohhhh ohh oh) It's when you lose your legs you still fight to stand 'Cause I know I'm fading And I know I'm losing everything you loved about me But don't let me go I can build the pieces of everything I broke Just hold it against me I never said this would be easy But I'll try oh I'll try yes believe me Keep your faith in me

It was the look in his eyes that I couldn't forget The way the blood rushed to his head He knows he's gotta give it all Give it all right now Oh he's shaking and breaking down to his knees He lost all control in his hands and his feet He knows he's gotta give it all Give it all right now He screams Whoa ohhh oh oh oh this could be my last chance This could be my last chance Whoa ohhhh oh oh oh this could be my last chance This could by my last chance This is the reason why he killed everything he ever had this is the reason why he leaves his luck up to chance to many prayers to a God he half believes in To many promises to people who don't believe him He holds their necks up to truth choking them black and blue Whoa ohhh oh oh oh this could be my last chance This could be my last chance Whoa ohhhh oh oh oh this could be my last chance This could by my last chance So let this crowd get off their feet Let them feel my demons in me I'll wear my heart on my sleeve So you can feel the pounding right in me Let this crowd yell and roar Let them feel my own war All my life this is what I've been fighting for For the chance of you needing more Whoa ohhh oh oh oh this could be my last chance This could be my last chance Whoa ohhhh oh oh oh this could be my last chance This could by my last chance

With a raise of hands Who's lost who they are With a show of voice let me hear who you are (Hey) 'Cause I know the feeling When you stop believing In all of the things that make you who you are today So when the world is crushing down on your bare chest When the tables have turned and you're the only one with nothing left When it feels like anchors hold your feet to the ground And lies are the only things that people ever talk about Just sing When minutes turn to hours I'm too much of a coward to say I'm here I wish I can stand on my own two feet But I live my life in fear 'Cause I know the feeling When you stop believing In all of the things that make you who you are today So when the world is crushing down on your bare chest When the tables have turned and you're the only one with nothing left When it feels like anchors hold your feet to the ground And lies are the only things that people ever talk about Just sing Just sing Just sing Oh no oh no oh no oh no I'm not going down this time oh no oh no oh no oh no I'm not going down this time So when the world is crushing down on your bare chest When the tables have turned and you're the only one with nothing left Just sing Oh no oh no oh no oh no I'm not going down this time oh no oh no oh no oh no I'm not going down this time

Oh Chicago 05:37
Oh Chicago Can you illuminate the skylines? And let all the liars come down to your core? 'Cause I'm still debating Whether if I should be waiting For something more Or should I just run back to your heart? 'Cause it's three A.M. on a Monday morning And I'm still looking for something that will never be found That will never be found And the truth just holds cobwebs And dreams only come true when your dead And these smiles just hide the frowns 'Cause I only write tragedies That's what I do best And these words just yell and scream I must love to be depressed Oh no I'm Alright, I'm just okay Wishing on shooting stars have gotten old anyways And I just got one more prayer left in me I won't use it on my death bed I'll die so you can stop crying Oh, its winter And it's as cold as where my heart would be If it was there that would be saying the least 'Cause I'm just a poet that makes a promise And then writes songs on how he couldn't keep it On how he couldn't keep it So don't you worry about me I'm a musician, I erase my problems with a melody and I've just tried to live in my dreams so I don't know a damn thing about reality Oh no I'm Alright, I'm just okay Wishing on shooting stars have gotten old anyways And I just got one more prayer left in me I won't use it on my death bed I'll die so you could stop crying I stand here alone With a beating heart in my chest And this clock ticks and tocks to my dying breath And I hope it finally comes my ending time So I could finally say that I timed something right (I'm Alright) All I wanted was accomplishment To show you I was different, I was something, I was better than nothing at all (I'm just okay) I've never seen an angel but I swear they look like you So breath taking God, I love you (Wishing on shooting stars have gotten old anyways) Please don't mistaken me with the man with the words 'Cause you're a swan And I'm a hummingbird (I'm alright) And I've been putting myself down since I was a kid and it seems that's all I ever did I stand here alone With a beating heart in my chest And this clock ticks and tocks to my dying breath And I hope it finally comes my ending time So I could finally say that I timed something right (I'm Alright) All I wanted was accomplishment To show you I was different, I was something, I was better than nothing at all (I'm just okay) I've never seen an angel but I swear they look like you So breath taking God, I love you (Wishing on shooting stars have gotten old anyways) Please don't mistaken me with the man with the words 'Cause you're a swan And I'm a hummingbird (I'm alright) And I've been putting myself down since I was a kid and it seems that's all I ever did
