…the heart where we started
And you came from the heart when we departed
This is garbage as hard as this is distance is nothing to…
…was replaced by a spit in your face
If the day should come when I wasn't being your fuckin puppet
I used to do my dirt and think nothing…
You don't remember everything
(Verse 2)
First kiss was as sweet as the last goodbye
And thats why I have to ask you why
You have to…

…inside me
It used to be a sweet love in bloom
With this ribbon tying my soul to you
And its commitment echoes through
Says infinity…
And fight for some distraction from your presence inside
I used to love that special bond we shared
Now it's torture
It used to be a sweet…
…solid and decided
There's only one
There's only one
There's only one
Earth Raven
Be free
It used to be a sweet love in bloom
With this ribbon tying…

Family man, look at your kids orphans now
Used to just smack rappers

And we finally get to meet

Wish we could've gotten old together
Like some wine
Said you wouldn't break my heart
But you were fucking lying
Made me believe we…
…were together
And now im crying
Plan to be alone
That's how im dying
I ain't trying
Noose around my neck
That's what im tying…

…the rest it is like an unexplained breeze in a closed room.
Grandma Lynn died several years later, but I have yet to see her here. I imagine her tying…
…it on in her heaven, drinking mint juleps with Tennessee Williams and Dean Martin. She'll be here in her own sweet time, I'm sure.
If I'm to be…
The branches of the overgrown trees had grown into the upstairs windows, and they huddled beneath them, knowing the branches would have to be…

Dear God, life, love, the universe
Whatever name you like to use
We ask that you allow tonight to be another one…
…of our best shows
We're grateful for what we get to do
Please allow the lights to be perfect, the sound to be perfect
And my fingers to…
I used to think about it, but it didn't feel right
It's 9:08, we getting kinda late, so we open up our eyes and say
[Chorus…

…[Verse 1: R-Mean]
Smoke a [?], get me high enough
So I'm tying up to inject the blood of a lion's cub
Meanest [?] to kill 'em…
…bleed would you replace me?
If we pulled a lick together as a click
Would you double click your mouse and vouch or wanted to…
…listening soon as I start faking, yo
They saying ''he done sold out, he not like he used to be''
How you know how I used to be?
I snap…

And we're always on the run like used Depends
I had a little fun tying up loose ends
Now that the work is done let the insanity commence
Normal…
…on the flow and where the beats came from
I gave too much credit to the guys that night
We were thinkin' and we let it pass to the wayside
I…
…picked one and didn't get it but we had to decide
"Sudden Death," Dave read it in the TV Guide
I didn't see what the name had to…

Your sweet honey bun package can't be outdone
You're my numero uno, my [?]
Who am I with in my freetime girl you know

Yo before there was an us there was a dream that belonged to me
And now they're we're together we both share and agree

Which will never compare to being together at home
And I'm never prepared to leave you sad…
