Track Name: 109 Degrees
verse 1
what if i took a bullet to the heart
would you be right there
would you be so caught
up in a moment that we both done lost
i dont really care but i don't really know
where this thing might go like missed typos
so i write you with my heart so cold
never really matter
when ya heart won't grow
so i sit right here, wit my back to the wall
kinda mad, but i know, that it wont help
so i get so lost then i lose myself
abuse myself, confuse myself
i'm full of pain, but i'm full of wealth
learn through life you gotta love yaself
because if you don't, then tell me who will
nobody prolly will understand
but i know i would, so i know it's real


verse 2
those rumors were, so humorous
they didn't hurt but they broke us up
we sitting here but aint talking much
i'm drinkin up whats in my cup
i'm half drunk but i'm half alert
i know whats up and i know what's wrong
you want somebody who understands
who plays they part ..and does it all
but i'm me …and i can't be more
so ima tell you right now whatchu need to do
is just let me go
cause it feels all wrong
and it can't be right
so i hold you tight, in the middle of the night
then you let me go, then you say goodnight, so i say goodbye
Track Name: Cali To NYC
verse 1
triple x, double breast
she is on but i'm coming next
i roll with them, rep my set
i throw it up and they throw it back
i'm loco, that's crazy for those who don't so
bilingual, my flow, too cold, you know
2 chainz, that fur coat, my girl be sippin that merlot
you know that im cut throat
i cut yall, no check bro
watch out who you check fo'
they all know who i be
v a i n - i play, no games

hook
i really wanna go to cali, cause i heard they got some pretty girls
but now i'm thinkin bout new york cause i know they dem pretty girls
i'm loving every single coast but i really want them pretty girls
make em take it off, for that money, don't be silly girl
i could make you famous in a minute, why you trippin girl?
why you trippin girl? why you trippin uh?

verse 2
summertime, summertime
hot girls, all fine
no clothes, no shoes, no socks
bunch of dimes
love life, no bull
i'm sure, that i want yall
can't front, i'm on one
i want more than one drink so
where ma cup? fill it up
make sure that i get super drunk
she super crunk and super lost
i'm superman, go stupid fast
i need the cash in duffle bags
no more, no less
too good to be too bad
oh well, i been told that

hook
i really wanna go to cali, cause i heard they got some pretty girls
but now i'm thinkin bout new york cause i know they dem pretty girls
i'm loving every single coast but i really want them pretty girls
make em take it off, for that money, don't be silly girl
i could make you famous in a minute, why you trippin girl?
why you trippin girl? why you trippin uh?
Track Name: Delight
verse 1
i tell the girl to take the stage
tell her to come forward and tell her to say her name
she recites words from poetry all the same
never miss a beat and never does she complain
open up my mind and show me where you reside
got a heart full of gold, my soul is so devine
been waiting for a girl like you, for all time
used to dream of genie, butchu were worth while, let's go

2x hook
i wanna love like, when i walk away
you think about me, all the time
can i have that?
or must we fight, day and night
for a piece of each other
in the mean time
i can roll with that..

2x bridge
guitar strings, i'm on that
ya love girl, i want that
the city life, i'm living that
international star, is where i'm goin next

verse 2
she got a couple artist on the wall
if i could name a few, then i could probably name em all
i told her, you should never be alarmed
ur in the arms of greatness, and i do carry a charm
i love the zodiac but it's not the only part
that i wanna get to know, i'm really reaching for ya heart
when i say i'm gone do it, i'ma really give my all
so you never have to doubt, never fear, never fall
never have to hit a wall, never going through withdraws
we are in this for each other, no we never tug of war
but if it came to that, would we both fade to black?
f - w - b - with no string attached
i dont think that i could do it, we are so a perfect match
but im thinking bout the future, hoping that we sorta last
i dont ever wanna break up, but that could soon come
so i'm ready for whatever, when the water soon runs, let's go

2x hook
i wanna love like, when i walk away
you think about me, all the time
can i have that?
or must we fight, day and night
for a piece of each other
in the mean time
i can roll with that..

2x bridge
guitar strings, i'm on that
ya love girl, i want that
the city life, i'm living that
international star, is where i'm goin next
Track Name: My Dreams
verse 1
check the melo-dee when ya checkin my flow
i be getting cash money, but it ain't enough dough
to be claiming that i'm rich, so i pocket and go
im tryna do a couple things like a couple of shows
but it never pans out so i settle for those
whats that? that's never, when you say where to go
you just say how you feel, for better, for worse
hopefully somebody listen, when you sell em your soul (Uh!)

verse 2
master in disguise, that's me, V to the A to the I to the N
can't complain, my whole life is full of gems
master the classics, prepared for the win
settle for the dust, life full of sin
city full of angels, gone with the wind
devil plays the advocate but me i play the kid
high strung out, overdose, next of kin
gotta find a burial, but only in my dreams
wasn't born in africa, like prince akeem
went through a lot in my life, so free
somewhere in a zone, where nobody knows me
never put the mask on, follow my league
i'ma born bred winner, never fall too deep
hibernate in the summer, ill be back in the spring
once winter time came, no coat, no cleats
Track Name: 4:15
verse 1
we adults, we can talk like we civilized
we can have a conversation at a better time
its early in the morning, what we talkin bout?
my head is on a pillow, so its goin down
dont be tryin wake me up unless you want something
dont be actin like you scared girl stop frontin'
cause i'm wit it if you are, down for the ride
if you tryn go far, leme know something


verse 2
mr. soulchild playing in the background
miss jill scott singing on the verse now
esperanza said she bout to touchdown
if i'm lucky then we might go another round
its more than sex its more than love
it's more than clouds it's more than stars
it's more than moons and more than suns
it's more than life, we live it's self
but i stay star gazing thinking to myself, those women are amazing
check ma horoscope, it's the reason for my changes
looking at these women got me goin through some phases, aint it crazy?
but only in my dreams do i get away
i could never say the things that i said today
to my girlfriend, she would prolly have a fit
so now im gone play it off seal it wit a kiss
Track Name: Black Beautiful & Bright
she often wonders if she good enough
paint her pretty face in the mirror to feel good but
her inner soul is the mind control
so she pop x pills to feel numb to cold but
that aint the reason for her doing
writing while she crying, while listening to music
lying in a bed asking god to forgive
her feelings in a bunch yeah its hard to re live
every single moment but you gotta play out
thoughts that re-occur if you wanna see how
the future un-folds for the young black girl
who is still so young but she feels so old
with a mind of her own that she can't control
letting people get close to abuse her soul
so ..i'm here to give a little more advice
on the girl that is black, beautiful and bright (UH!)


2x hook
you know the past we re-live it
then it's gone in a new york minute
then we end right back where started
lost and confused and so broken - hearted
they say time heals wounds
but somehow i feel the same as you
tryna get my life together, got too much to lose
can't live for the past - that's the path to choose
Track Name: Love Me Again
verse 1
this is black hoodie rap, hat to the back
love is not a gimmick but it feels off track
liquor in a cup, na, brown paper bag
walkin through the city, everything is up for grabs
all within the reach, middle class, upper class
no one is superior, but everybody brags
i'm just doin me, i salute to the flag
but i'm in a different in country so i'm half way past
all the finish points, so this phrase i'ma coin
i be cashing in my tickets, to the cities ima visit
gotta learn about the culture, learn about the people
never on top, i just see us as an equal
who am i to judge? when everybody got they own path
i was never first place but i never finished last
used to be the brokest, but i'm between the finest
once was in love, but my soul grew tired

verse 2
does the grass grow greener on the other side?
same shit, different day, another homicide
but this no law and order, can't nobody save ya daughter
so all them tears that you saving put em all behind
got a bigger image to picture when life is over
thoughts of death be the reason that we growin closer
but money take us further, so now we island hoppin
helicopter coppin, while nobody watchin
tryna make a profit, put it in the wallet
escape reality when everybodys out of pocket
tired of providin, i know it sound rude
i got an attitude but that ain't really brand new
i lace new shoes, got new gear
doing things that i thought i did last year
so i dream chase, till i get paid
i might blow up the scope in a couple days!
Track Name: Out The Window
verse 1
let's communicate over lunch or dinner
look into my eyes can you tell i'ma winner
born bred star, a born bred sinner
but listen, i was told from the beginning
that i could get it , so i get it the way i feel
much to ya mind
i roll up and peel, off
way too raw, my god, i'm good
piss on the flow, i'm too hood

2x hook
looking out the window
my life seem to pass by
pretty women only stop
just to say hi
so i wave back
then i turn around
get a peak at they frame
watchu say now?

verse 2
dinner for two, on the menu is me and you
so watchu think? is that something that you into?
maybe not, butchu hot, and you sorta got
the kinda flare that i like, which is sorta why
i make songs on the spot, that are really not
how i feel, but i'm real, and i'm sorta shy
and i'm sorta lame, no what i meant to say
is that i'm sorta cray, depending on the day
hey! now can you love me in a special way
like debarge, i'm in charge, every little thing
that you do, make me wanna leave the one i'm wit
but i'm cool with this love / hate relationship
we cool it down for now like new edition did
blast to the past, of course, i gave her many gifts
but took em back, pretty women don't deserve shit
this is another love / hate type relationship

2x hook
looking out the window
my life seem to pass by
pretty women only stop
just to say hi
so i wave back
then i turn around
get a peak at they frame
watchu say now?
