ENDLESS SUMMER
Endless Summer
Ooh ooh
Endless summer
Hope you never go away
Ooh
Burnin up in November
High on the A-1A
Oh lord
It’s one hell of a ride
Takin my time
Ooh ooh Endless summer
Hope you never go away
These are days of gold
And they’re beautiful
When we’re backseat
Sippin’ on Cherry Cola
Goin a mile a minute
Rollin down the coast
Day Tripper turned up on the radio
This is paradise
And the love is sweet
And we get the car dirty with our sandy feet
Can we bottle up all the nights like this
And every time I miss it I could take a sip
Ooh ooh
Endless summer
Hope you never go away
Ooh
Burnin up in November
High on the A-1A
Oh lord
It’s one hell of a ride
Takin my time
Ooh ooh Endless summer
Hope you never go away
We don’t need the clock
The music never stops
In a drop top Cadillac down the block
Found a place to park
We can watch the stars
Big dream
Dreaming and the world is ours
All the time to waste
Never wasted time
Takin all these moments with some salt and lime
Wish I could roll it up and just take a hit
And every time I miss it I would get a lift
Ooh ooh
Endless summer
Hope you never go away
Ooh
Burnin up in November
High on the A-1A
Oh lord
It’s one hell of a ride
Takin my time
Ooh ooh Endless summer
Hope you never go away

3. M.I.A
High tide
Rolling down the street in a low ride
Pretty girl sitting by my side
We could go MIA
East Coast
Rolling up some of that home grown
Rollin down all 4 windows
We could go MIA
Tryin to live my life like a holiday
Tryin to play it cool like Jesse James
Catch me like yeah
Every day like yeah
Runnin through the day trying to catch a break
Hoppin on a plane going far away
Catch me like woah
Chillin on the beach like woah
High tide
Rolling down the street in a low ride
Pretty girl sitting by my side
We could go MIA
East Coast
Rolling up some of that home grown
Rollin down all 4 windows
We could go MIA
Waiting for the sun on a summer night
Tryin to get numb tryin to catch a vibe
Got me like woah
Feelin like woah
See myself shining in electric light
Gonna get lost in the wave tonight
Catch me like yeah
Every night like yeah
I go to bed on the east coast
Wakin up on the west coast
Sun gonna rise and the sun gonna set
Anywhere I go is where I lay my head
And when I go home
Whipping round the town that I come from
Sun gonna rise and the sun gonna set
Anywhere I go is where I lay my head
High tide
Rolling down the street in a low ride
Pretty girl sitting by my side
We could go MIA
East Coast
Rolling up some of that home grown
Rollin down all 4 windows
We could go MIA
High tide
Rolling down the street in a low ride
Pretty girl sitting by my side
We could go MIA
East Coast
Rolling up some of that home grown
Rollin down all 4 windows
We could go MIA
4. Castaway
I’m just a castaway
I’m in a lonely place
Woah
Hoping it’s just a phase
I can find my way back home
I’m just a castaway
Should I go or should I stay
I might just levitate and find my way back home
Gimme the gimme the rum
Sippin on 151, under the sun
Summer is done
Days are turning to months
Summer is done
There goes the sun uh
Words at the tip of my tongue
Things that i havnt sung, got me undone
Days are turning to months
Days are turning to months
Nowhere to go I’m stranded
Along the coast im planted
It could be worse i know
Gotta find my way back home
I've got no fear
Feet in the sand, I’m the only one here
Waves crashing and I disappear
I’m all on my own, woah
I’m just a castaway
I’m in a lonely place
Woah
Hoping it’s just a phase
I can find my way back home
I’m just a castaway
Should I go or should I stay
I might just levitate and find my way back home
I remember days with the green light
Steppin on the gas with no stop sign
Slip into the deep and I just might
Screaming at wilson in the
Sunlight oh my
Thinkin I done lost my mind
Well I’ve been sitting all alone
Feeling all this time
Staring at the sun, feeling all that shine
Fingers on the clock running down my spine
I've got no fear
Feet in the sand, I’m the only one here
Waves crashing and I disappear
I’m all on my own, woah
I’m just a castaway
I’m in a lonely place
Woah
Hoping it’s just a phase
I can find my way back home
I’m just a castaway
Should I go or should I stay
I might just levitate and find my way back home
5. Roll Up
I love it when you roll up to my house
I love it when you roll up on my couch
I love it when you roll up in the sheets

I love it when you roll up all over this town
I love it when you roll up with all I need
Only for me

Whoa whoa
You take the madness
The lemons of life make a Pina colada

Catching a feelin I’ll see you tomorrow
And in the evenin

Take all the madness away
Through every season
All of my feelings
Give me the reason to stay
And wait for you to

Blue dreamin of clouds that float out a window
Blessed with what I got
When you come around everything is so simple
Never a bad day
Like three little bird its gunna alright

Turn into a smile so easy on my face
Whoa in the evenin
All of my dreaming

Through every season
All of my feelings
Give me the reason to stay

7. All Her Favorite Songs (with Little Stranger)
Roll one up
And pass me another
Fill my cup and make it double
Let’s go out
And turn it up tonight
Turn it up and turn you out
Wake the neighbor cause we’re too loud
Blame it on the police tonight.
Bob Marley playing 2am
Girl from Iponima running through her head
Dancing in the kitchen moving to the bed
Walking on the moon
Lionel Richie gotta turn it up
On Sunday mornings we don’t give a f***
40 oz to freedom
Singing don’t stop believing
Roll one up
And pass me another
Fill my cup and make it double
Let’s go out
And turn it up tonight
Turn it up and turn you out
Wake the neighbor cause we’re too loud
Blame it on the police tonight.
Singing the summer of 69
You mess up the words almost every time
I know you know it but you look so fine
Forever young with you
Stevie Wonder gotta turn it up
Inner Visions got me drunk in love
And here comes the sun
All we need is love
Hey now, you’re an “allstar”
Forget what I just say now, you're a…
I promise everything’s ok now
Or you can send me on my way now
Send me on my way
Close to me you’re like my brother
And I can be the only one you’re mister lover lover
Say my name until I get you underneath the cover
Ride with me until you find a love that we discover
There ain’t no other
For forever, forever ever
For ever ever
Under my umbrella we rockin' it a capella
My tender heart in a blender
What a beautiful oblivion
Girl you one in a milli a milli a million
Bumpin' some oasis but it ain’t no mirage
You better listen all of y’all this ain't no sabotage
She mambo number 5 her way inside
You know she stayin’ up all night
Cuz sugar we’re going down swingin’ alright? Alright
Roll one up
And pass me another
Fill my cup and make it double
Let’s go out
And turn it up tonight
Turn it up and turn you out
Wake the neighbor cause we’re too loud
Blame it on the police tonight.
9. Red Wine
When I drink red wine
I’ve always got you on my mind
The things we do
Late at night
Woah Woah
When I drink red wine
Yeah I taste you every time
The things we do
Late at night
Woah Woah
When I drink red wine
When I drink red wine
Sittin downtown when you rolled up
You said hello
I said hold up
Since then I’ve never been low
I went to be and then woke up
You burned like the sun that I soak up
Since then I’ve never been low
Oooo
When I drink red wine
I’ve only got you on my mind
The things we do
Late at night
Woah
Woah
When I drink red wine
Yeah I taste you every time
The things we do
Late at night
Woah Woah
I remember days when we road out
Staring at the sun blowing smoke out
You live in my mind, that’s with no doubt
Sill feel the nights when we go up
Warm summer wind to the ocean
Fillin my mind with emotion
When I drink red wine
I’ve only got you on my mind
The things we do
Late at night
Woah
Woah
When I drink red wine
Yeah I taste you every time
The things we do
Late at night
Woah Woah
When I drink red wine
When I drink red wine
10. Mind Bender (with Surfer Girl)
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Can’t fight it, I surrender,
Hoping imma be alright,
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Hopin imma be alright, alright
I swear I’m seeing things,
the colors come and go,
I’m hearing classical music except its rock and roll,
I think I’m growing wings,
I’ve never been so stoned,
I’m standing in a crowd but man it feel like I’m alone,
I’m seeing energy,
I’m feeling sound waves,
Float or drown imma ride it anyway
Anyway Im feeling just like a space man
Staring at the stars laying faced on the pavement
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Can’t fight it, I surrender,
Hoping imma be alright,
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Hopin imma be alright, alright
Hold on! Wait a minute,
I’m falling off my axis, relax, keep grinning
Summer tripping, watermelon, spitting pits from cherries,
singing at the stars, see how far our voices carry,
Slow down! First inning,
im up at bat, but this backyard spinning,
couple close friends, know to keep the circle tight,
i got a feeling we’ll be here all night,
Burnin on the sun
Walking on the moon
No where to run
Hope i get home soon
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Can’t fight it, I surrender,
Hoping imma be alright,
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Hopin imma be alright, alright
Don’t make me feel crazy
I’ve been tripping lately
Things get tough sometimes
But you can find me chilling up my mind
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Can’t fight it, I surrender,
Hoping imma be alright,
Midnight mind bender,
Keep me until the sunrise,
Hopin imma be alright, alright

12. Burn Slow
Sun setting down on the PCH
Reggae song playing on the radio waves
Ocean telling me tellin me imma be ok, ok
Stars coming out when the sky goes black
Taking me there and I’ll never go back
Dreaming in blue and you know right where I’m at, I’m at
One more time around
Show me what I’m looking for
One more time around
Burn slow
And pass it around
Never feel good as I do right now
Burn slow
And take it all in
Losing myself light it up again
Breathe it in, breathe it out
Fill my head, up with clouds
Burn slow
And pass it around
Never feel good as I do right now
Sun coming up on the 95
Smoke out the window
with the blood shot eye
Ocean telling me everything gunna be alright, alright
Stars disappear with the break of day
Love it when they come but they never stay
Champagne dreaming in a west coast kind of way, way
One more time around
Show me what I’m looking for
One more time around
Burn slow
And pass it around
Never feel good as I do right now
Burn slow
And take it all in
Losing myself light it up again
Breathe it in, breathe it out
Fill my head, up with clouds
Burn slow
And pass it around
Never feel good as I do right now
13. Keep My Head Up
Spent all night drinking
Tryna figure it out
With all those people
I didn’t hear a sound
Stuck in my head
Stuck in my ways
Mona Lisa
Use to sing my name
Heyyyy

Tryna get up, get up
Get up get up
Heyyyy
I spend all my life
Tryna keep my head up, keep my head up
Heyyyyyyy
All my feelings and all my pride
Won’t you lay me down before tonight
All this sound up in my head
Gotta drown it out
Before the morning come’s
Yea my shadows
Up on the wall
But when I grooving
It don’t move at all
Tryna find that balance
And measure the ways
Cause I go swimming
In the middle of the winter I know
Heyyyy
I spend all my time
Tryna get up, get up
Get up get up
Heyyyy
I spend all my life
Tryna keep my head up, keep my head up
Heyyyyyyy
All my feelings and all my pride
Won’t you lay me down before tonight
All this sound up in my head
Gotta drown it out
Before the morning comes
14. Looking out the window and driving
Hey ah
Hey ah oh
Don’t have much money
But it takes a lot of money to live
Pockets are empty
But I’m living all my days bathed in gold
I get a feeling when
I’m thinking bout the people I’m with
Don’t need much money
When your living like you’ll never get old
Hey ah
Hey ah oh
Engine is empty but I’m singing to the dash when I drive
I’m feeling lucky got a feelin’ that’s enough to get home
Love is an ocean and it’s always in its motion alright
I’ll take the ride with my eyes open wide that’s for sure
Hey ah
Hey ah oh
CASTLES
1. BE ALRIGHT
If I never see your face again
Well I’m gonna be alright
Heard those words come down like
Like the thunder fall
And they’re never gonna leave my side
If I live with a heart so true
Well I’m gonna be alright
And if I let it all flow
Like a waterfall
Would it come back to my side
Be alright, be alright
Takes a whole lot
And it’s never gonna stop
But I know it's gonna be alright
The highs and lows
How they come and go
But I know it’s gonna be alright
If I move like the wind it blows
Well I’m gonna be alright
Well, I was made for the open road
When I gotta go I’ll fly
If It burns when the fire fall
Well I’m gonna be alright
Well take a little pain
Just to know about life
And this will be my guiding light
Be alright, be alright
Takes a whole lot
And it’s never gonna stop
But I know it’s gonna be alright
Be alright, be alright
Be alright, be alright
The highs and lows
How they come and go
But I know I’m gonna be alright
2. SHOTS FIRED
Shots fired
Calling me a liar
I’ll be gone before the morning sun
Shots fired
I've been feeling tired
I’ll be gone before the morning sun
And when the sun come up I’ll be running from your love
Like a bullet from the gun
And when the gone rise
I’ll be falling from the skies
Like the tears from your eyes
And when pressure come
And I don’t know where to go
I’ll be burning down the road
And when you open the blind
And the sun come through
And you don’t know what to do
Shots fired
Calling me a liar
I’ll be gone before the morning sun
Shots fired
I've been feeling tired
I’ll be gone before the morning sun
And every night
You’ve been running through my mind
Running through my mind
And every day
You been running me around
Running me around
And when I go
No I never look back
Never look back
And when I’m gone
Well you know it’s gonna feel
Like a slow burn slow burn
Oh you wind me up
Hey you shoot me down
Oh on and on
Hey down and out
3. BRIGHT SIDE (WITH lUKE mITRANI)
Looking at the stars
Hey, that’s where I wanna be
Way on up past mars
That’s where I wanna be
And when I get that high
I’m never coming down
Looking out my window
Staring at the night sky
Shouting to the moonlight
I just wanna fly high
Dreams are what we’re made of
Everything’s uncertain
I like it when your right here
While the fire’s burning
I’ve been trying so hard
To look on the bright side
Even when the whole world
Seems like it is faded
When the walls
Feel like their crashing down
Keep your head up
Rise up, don’t you drown
Take a step back
Listen to the ocean
We’ve got it all
We’ve got it all
Staring at the sun
Yea that’s where I wanna go
Let us both become
That ever loving glow
And when I burn all night
Know that I’m still there
When I burn so bright
Not going anywhere
4. MARGARITAS (WITH ORANGE GROVE)
Mix up margaritas
Cause my girl she’s a pleaser
Hooked up gonna keep her
Hell no I wouldn’t leave her
And when the temperature come so kindly
You know we got that system bumping nightly
Oh the way she grooving right beside me
She said I wanna sneak away with you
Guess that's why I’m smiling
Cause I got nothing but love for you, said it
Nothing but love for you
Nothing but love for you
Cause there’s just something about her stylie
I guess it's that she keep it burning wildly
She always light it up, electrifying
Living every night like it’s a Friday, finally
Now I’m never gonna be the same
Sun come up so glad you stayed
Now I’m never gonna be the same, same
Sun come up lets do it again
Now I’m never gonna be the same
Mix up margaritas
And DJ turn up that system
Make it brump speaker pump like a piston
And if you wanna kick it like we do

5. THE SQUEEZE (WITH G. LOVE & SPECIAL SAUCE)
Come on now
You got that funky love
That funky funky funky love
Fill my glass
Puff puff puff puff puff pass
She said you know I'm crazy baby
It's a crazy life
I said I'll take my chances so I rolled the dice
And she was sweet on the tongue like a soda pop
And I was swimming in her eyes man I couldn't stop
She asked me home to her place and she took my hand
We were kissing in a cab on Collins Ave
We were running in the streets we were rolling in the sheets and
I believed everything she was talking about
She too good to let her go
So fill my glass with that solid gold
Funky funky funky funky funky love
Nonstop baby
Its too hot baby
6. DELOREAN (WITH BROTHER ALI, G. LOVE & SPECIAL SAUCE)
I remember big Jackie Jones and her mother
She was always stoned getting high with her brothers
They were always laughing going crazy by the river
I wasn’t allowed had to make it home to dinner
I remember Frankie White always fighting by the ocean
Always talking shit always causing a commotion
Though he never won he was always down
So gotta give it up I wonder where he is now
I remember my my first girl her name was Sarah
She was into Prince, Michael Jackson, and New Era
Her mom was real cool she would let me stay over
I hope she’s doing good now we’re all getting older
When I look back
We were so young
And dumb in love
With everything
And everyone
Never enough
Bring me back
I want that
DeLorean
I remember Jenny Leigh cruising in the Celica
And Little Lize be like G man
Yo I’m tellin ya
You play the guitar and i’ll play the sax
Down on Headhouse Way and we can stack some cash
I remember Jake Joy
Big Al be like white boys got it
Remember Nicky J and the D boys in Germantown smoking cigarettes on Queenlane
Catch the R-8 home
I remember the first tag I hit in the trolley, gettin’ nervous
Listening to Beastie Boys
License to Ill
We should have just chilled
When I look back
We were so young
And dumb in love
With everything
And everyone
Never enough
Bring me back
I want that
DeLorean
I’m so glad we didn't have smart phones when I was a kid
So I don’t have to watch all of the dumb shit I did
I can edit all the memories that live in my mind
And pretend it was a simpler time
Let it spin like a vinyl on the turntable it twirled
I could hear my favorite MC’s saving the world
Watching Martin and Gina,
Zach, Screech, and Lisa,
Carlton, Khadijah, Urkel and Moesha
And laugh at the cafeteria over pizza
Bout whose breath stink and whose sneakers are cleaner
These were the days we discovered ourselves
Wouldn't relive them with anyone else
I know that's felt
7. CRIMINAL
Start me up
The way your body move is criminal
The way you stole my heart was robbery
And now you're looking for your getaway
You came in lookin’ like a gun
There was nowhere to run
Ready to blast
Moving too fast
Murder she wrote
Came in with the power
Like a wild child
And it didn’t take long to
Steal that space in my mind
The way you played me was subliminal
I’m coming down and it’s ugly love
But I still want you like my favorite drug
I just want you too much
Start me up
The way your body move is criminal
The way you stole my heart was robbery
And now you're looking for your getaway
Well I’ll never forget, when that sun set
How it caught me by surprise
When you opened up fire, oh my
And you left me bleeding
With my mind gone
And you didn’t look back
Assassin with the lights on
The way you played me was subliminal
I’m coming down and it’s ugly love
But I still want you like my favorite drug
Out of reach, out of touch
Start me up
8. MOON
I’ve been walking on the moon
And floating
I’ll show you how to do it
It’s easy
There’s really nothing to it
Do you want to come?
I’ve been
Riding on a wave of sound
And when I’m getting down
It take me where I wanna be
Do you wanna go?
Woah oh
Living it up
Can I
Teach you how to fly
I’m sailing up into the sky
I’m never
Going to come down
Do you wanna go?
So follow me up to the light
Through the ether
Taking a deep breath as we dive
Going deeper
Pressure building up and the light getting weaker
Listen to the song of the everlasting teacher
I’ve been
Riding on a wave of sound
And when I’m getting down
I’m swimming where I want to be
Do you want to go?
9. LONELY MOUNTAIN
:)
10. MY FRIEND (WITH THE MOVEMENT, KEZNAMDI)
A good friend will last you, through the crisis and that kind of friendship is priceless
A real kind of friend that will ground you, I can count on you friend, Iya give you your glory
And overtime through the cries and the laughter
And as we grow and evolve through these chapters
And through the hurricane, storm and disaster
You always showed love with every moment we captured
Yea my friend
Your always there for me
Yea my friend
Whenever I’m in need
Never have to question all of your intentions
I can see it clearly in your actions
And if mi pass on through a new dimension
I hope these words will bring forth redemption
All my life, a friend indeed
Always did and kept it real
And in my wrongs correcting me
Always there and protecting me
You were there when the walls of the world came tumbling down on me
Stood by my side when it seemed all the love I’d ever know just ran out on me
I was lost in the darkness
I really don't even know how you found me
But with tears in my eyes
You bring light when you wrap your loving arms around me
So I send all my love to you
Only a friend can hum that tune
Nothing in the end is above the truth
And you understand, it’s just what you do
You and I will never be apart
Because our hearts are connected
I’ve seen the strength of your love
And you know that I’ll never forget it
Yea my friend
The cries and the laughter
Yea my friend
As we go through the chapters
And when life gets tough
Every single time that I feel stuck
You were always ride or die
Good friend I got riding by my side
Yea my friend
Your always there for me
Yea my friend
Yeah you're always there in deed
Yea my friend
Yeah
Yea my friend
Oh oh oh oh
My friend
11. DOWN THE ROAD
I’ll see you on down the road
Hail sleet thunder and sun
Can’t stop my wheels turnin’
Burnin towards you my love
And every single face that I meet
Expands who I was into who I will be
We’re building up castles in the sky all together
Words heard loud like thousand pound of thunder
Looking at my brothers like here we are
Heading on up shooting for the stars
I’ll see you on down the road
Storm fire burn break me down and rebuild me
Stronger than I was, am now, or ever could be
Burn inna diamond colored true from my past
First thing I know is nothing ever really last
Lion gonna eat when the King getting hungry
Belly of the beast shark tame sky up above me
Stay up in a light when that dark come round
Opening my vision into who I am now
I’ll see you on down the road
12. GARDENIA (WITH STICK FIGURE)
So nice to meet ya
Smell it on the pillow when she leave
When I think about her get that feeling
Get it in the morning when I’m ready
Smell like gardenia
Smell it on the pillow when she leave
When I think about it get that feeling
Get it in the morning when I’m ready
Sweet sensimilla
How the garden grow
How it bloom and what it teach ya
Started as a seed now I'm walking through the jungle
Between green leaves no we not lookin for no trouble
So what's the story
Known a lot of people but I've never seen a vision
Quite like you and I was smiling when you walked in
Never left my face since then, its hypnotizing
So nice to meet ya
Smell it on the pillow when she leave
When I think about her get that feeling
Get it in the morning when I’m ready
Smell like gardenia
Smell it on the pillow when she leave
When I think about it get that feeling
Get it in the morning when I’m ready
What's the reason
All I ever knew and all I do and why I’m breathing
Teacher used to yap I’m slapping beats up on the table
Now I gotta get to giving it back up to the people
So come and get some
Ten thousands reasons I can burn it with the mission
Living in a dream melody and ignition
Finally found outside you didn't know that you was missing
So nice to meet ya
Smell it on the pillow when she leave
When I think about her get that feeling
Get it in the morning when I’m ready
Smell like gardenia
Smell it on the pillow when she leave
When I think about it get that feeling
Get it in the morning when I’m ready
What is hotter than the sunshine?
You know we always gonna be having a good time
And I don’t care if I don’t get no sleep tonight
I just want to get high with you
See you standing in the moonlight
I feel like I’ve been waiting my whole life
Keep it burnin steady when the mood is right
I just want to get back to you
I don’t really care where ya been or where ya going
There ain’t no where to go but it’s better than not knowing
All goes to show, and everybody knows
There ain’t no stopping now
Somewhere out there, there’s a place that has given me
I hope to see the day, we realize our ability
Now that you can see, we must believe
There ain’t no stopping now
Ain’t no stopping now
13. RETURN
And so return
Fire gonna burn
Bring us back to one and
Transform us from the digital
Got to learn
And when we didn’t learn
Open up the truth
Bring us back to somewhere spiritual
Something more than metaphysical
Choking on shadow, cloak, and dagger
Of the powerful
Bring it back
With truth to guide my own path
Packing ammo cause I’ll never be caught like an animal
Got to learn
Or fire gonna burn
Innocent losing lives
Up in the street
But you’ll see we far from weak
Got to learn
Greedy will get their own turn
Oh yea
Head under water
While the sun is getting hotter
We’re walking through a mad mad world
And so return
Always from the end does it begin
Moving through the cycle in a circular motion
So return
Every single time it is the same
Build it up the tallest watch it build the biggest flame
So return
No no no
What a shame what a shame
With a little bit of balance then forever we’d remain
Don’t worry for the future
Mind sick and the weary
Although it is so scary
Don’t worry for the past
For it’s already been had
And it’s where we will return
Don’t worry for the fighters
Looters, freedom shouters
And all them polluters
You’d think that we would learn
When we watch the world burn
Got to love one and other
We’re walking through a mad mad world
So return
14. UPSIDE DOWN
Was it too much with the late nights
And months away from home
Burning down that highway
Leaving you all alone
I would never say sorry
I’m the same as when you met me
I would just be lying
If I said it didn’t affect me
If I said
If I said, that
I’m upside down
Inside out
With a golden heart
Restless soul
Smoking cigarette and walking
Doing drugs at the party
Woke up on your parents lawn
You were right beside me
It wasn’t that long ago
Maybe all the glitter didn’t turn to gold but
Was it you or was it me
I’m a songbird and I gotta be free
Song bird, got to sing
Sweet mother Mary when you call to me
Make sure your voice ring in a sound so sweet
Gotta send up a word hope it gets to my head
I’m a lover baby always think with my chest
Love over power, ain’t it so true
Funny to see what that power can do
Never forget back when we were young
It was so simple and we all got along
Bring me back
When I’m
Upside down
Inside out
With a golden heart
Restless soul
When I’m
Upside down
15. how high
How’d you get so high
And when you gonna come down
How’d you get so cool
And when you gonna touch the ground
The world moves around you
Yea
Are you moving too
Yea
Sinking or swimming
I’m coming too
How’d you get so low
When you gonna come up
How’d you get so cool
When you gonna have enough
The world moves around you
Yea
Are you moving too
Yea
Sinking or swimming
I’m coming too
So give me all your love
Cause I won’t do you wrong
16. cool river
Cool river flow
Steady through the bend
Though I don't know
Where the water ends
And I take its advice
With every turn in my life
Stay cool like the river
Like the river stays cool
Yea
Na na na
Big ocean move
In and out through the bay
Can't change its mood
When it goes or it stays
So I take its advice
With every move in my life
Stay true like the ocean
Like the ocean it moves
Hard rain gonna fall
Drowning out the sun
But after all
That's how's flowers they come
And so I take its advice
With every storm in my life
Grow like the flower
Like the flowers they grow
Double Vision EP
1.LET IT ALL OUT (feat. Bret Bollinger, Pepper)
Tryna get my money up
I gotta buy new shoes, new shoes
I just want the simple stuff
A little bit of food and some fun yea
Because it’s never enough
It takes a whole lot of green just to live
And when times are getting rough
I gotta let it all out, all out, all out
I gotta let it all out, all out, all out
My credit cards are maxing up
Picked up the tab for the band and the whole crew
Mistress needs some Jimmy Choo’s
But I gotta get the wife something nice too
When the black becomes the red
A penny saved is a penny earned someone said
F**ck it lets go out tonight
I gotta let it all out, all out, all out
Cause I don’t wanna wait no more
People wanna move too slow, too slow
I just wanna pick it up
Stuck in the same routine, same thing
Calling on the telephone
Are you gonna call me back, call me back
Come on let’s go out tonight
I gotta let it all out all out all out
I gotta let it all out all out all out
When the sun is sinking low
I don’t wanna go home, go home
I just wanna turn it up
Throw on my brand new shoes, fresh clothes
Because it’s never enough
No not for me, for me
C’mon let’s go out tonight
I gotta let it all out, all out, all out
I gotta let it all out, all out, all out.
2.NOSTALGIA
I remember when when I was a kid
And we’d sneak out late at night
Down to the bonfire, where I’d always pick a fight
I never learned my lesson until crazy man he pulled that knife
It’s funny how you learn to live when you almost lose your life
Ooo
We can get that feeling back
Nostalgia
We can get that feeling back
Nostalgia
Close your eyes, rewind your mind
And turn up the radio
Remember how
Way back when
We use to let it go
Oooo
Nostalgia
Oooo
Nostalgia
I remember when I was a kid
Just drinking out in the woods
We would run
When the police come
Much quicker than they could
Me and my friends
Laughing so loud
I can't remember why it was
But bring me back
To them back pack days
I would stay there if I could
Ooo
We can get that feeling back
Nostalgia

Nostalgia
Close your eyes, rewind your mind
Turn up the stereo

Funny how you learn to live when you almost lose your life
I remember when I was a kid
And we’d sneak out late at night
Funny how you learn to live when you almost lose your life

Pockets full of love and chest full of power

Comfort in me

Never felt better
When I'm looking in your eyes

Hold on
Hold on, when you can’t see the light
And you can’t find a spark

Hold on
I went swimming with the sharks
Couldn’t move for I was frozen
Had to sturdy up my heart
Turn it’s color from red to golden
This is how I’ll stay
Never let it fade, away
You’ve got to
Hold on
Hold on, when the money’s too tight
And you’ve got nothing going on
Hold on, when you can’t see the light
And you don’t have a spark
Hold on
I was walking in the dark
Hard to see, only shadow
Had to sturdy up my heart
Shine a light, for you to follow
This is how I’ll stay
Never let it fade, away
This is how I’ll stay
Never let is fade, away
Your got to
Hold on
Hold on, when the money’s too tight

And you can’t find your heart
Hold on

4. GONNA SHINE
When you get so down that you can't feel a thing
When the pressure gonna come
Surrounding everything
When the darkness falls like a hammer to the light
That darkness never wins
Hold out for the morning time
So low that you don't wanna fight
Food on your plate but your hungry at night
The fire burning
But you feel so cold
Your numb inside
Tired but not alone
Hey oh oh
Your gonna shine
When you wake up sunny
But the engine won’t run
You get a little money
But you can’t have no fun
Fall asleep but the day isn’t through
Your rock bottom
You got nothing else to lose
Been fishin but you can’t get a bite
Can’t tell if it’s morning or night
When the days pass by
And the weeks are all gone
Sturdy up
Know that it won’t be long now
Hey oh oh
Your gonna shine
5. PEOPLE GO
I was chilling in the morning
So tired so sleepy don't wanna wake up
But the suns gonna rise, and so am I
Gonna fill my cup
Had to hit it, gotta get it
Running out the door
Getting on the road
To lift up my mood
I turn on the radio
Because it made me go
Zoo do do do do
The people go
The afternoon came crazy
I’m so lazy, gotta step outside
Take a deep deep breath
Get a little bit of air
Catch a little bit of sunshine
Well I never wanna be another number
Like the other gotta show how I shine
To cool my mood
I turn on the radio
Cause it makes me go
Zoo do do do do
The people go
As night time fell
Just like me I gotta rest my head
Can’t wait to get home, ease my bones and fall into bed
Then my friends gonna call me
Talking about a little party that’s going on down the road so
I throw on my clothes
Strap on my shoes
And turn up the radio
Zoo do do do do
The people go
6. BOSTON

9. COOL DOWN
Feeling it crashing in
The moment that it hits
This feeling is a killer
Burning through your day
Making promises
That tomorrow will be better
Oooo sometimes you gotta cool down, cool down
Oh, sometimes you need to
Picking up picking up steam
Know your speed or the wheels fall off
Pressure now to can’t even sleep
The engine won’t burn with no gasoline
Workin everyday
Grinding for your pay
You got no explanation
Feel like it don’t fit
The moment that you’re in
It’s just the situation
Ooo sometime you need to cool down, cool down
Ooo sometimes you need to
Picking up picking up steam
Know your speed before the wheels fall off
Pressure now to can’t even sleep
The engine won’t burn with no gasoline
10. THE LADDER
Can’t help but feel sideways
Feeling like this since sunrise
So bring me all your bad days
Been feeling like there’s some strange times coming
Can't help but feel that way
Been feeling like this since last time
I’m bringing all my bad days
I know that there's some strange times coming
Climbing up the mountain
Trying to find purpose
Some days moving backwards
Others running forward
It's easy to get lost when
The light it fades to darkness
Remember you have power
And you could be a lighter
You could be a ladder
You could be a ladder
You could be a ladder
Can't help but feel sideways
Been tripping like this since sun shines
So bring me all your bad days
Been feeling like there's some strange times coming
Lost in my distractions
I know they mean nothing
Trying to find something
Deeper than the surface
Deep enough for purpose
Something I could climb with
That could be a ladder
You could be a ladder
You could be a ladder
You could be a ladder
You could be a ladder
Moving past my old days
Been feeling like that since sunrise
So bring my all your bad days
Been feeling like there’s some good times coming
Climbing up the mountain
Trying to find purpose
Some days moving backwards
Others running forward
It's easy to get lost when
The light it fades to darkness
Remember you have power
And you could be a lighter
Lost in my distractions
I know they mean nothing
Trying to find something
Deeper than the surface
Deep enough for purpose
Something I could climb with
That could be a ladder
You could be a lighter
11. SHAKING OFF THE WOLVES
I've been shaking off the wolves
I leave them peacefully behind
A heart that forgives, builds a mindset sublime
I've been looking to the north
Steady pace growing fast
Foundation made on love is a home built to last
Foundation made on love is a home built to last
Opening my mind to a family that learns
Gaining brothers and sisters through trust that we earn
Mission for the gold
But keeping my soul clean
Your heart is worth more than a paper colored green
Your heart is worth more than a paper colored green
You cannot fight it
But we keep on fighting
We got a system pulling
People keep on diving
Look at our fire
Cause you could start a riot
You could be the mission
Or you could be the target
Seeking out firelight
Yea we got a system file
Pick another number
You’re never gonna die
The cheaters with their eyes
The truth between the lies
Still I know
It’s just another sunrise
I've been shaking off the wolves
I leave them peacefully behind
A heart that forgives, builds a mindset sublime
I've been looking to the north
Steady paces moving fast
Foundation made on love is a home built to last
Foundation made on love is a home built to last
THE CORNERSTONE
1. Don’t Wanna Love You
You don’t make the rules
I am not your fool
Watch your tone when talking to me
In control
When the wind does blow
I’m steady as the willow tree
As the willow tree
But when you treat me this way
I don’t want to love you
And when you treat my this way
How could I respect you
But when you treat me this way
I don’t want to love you
Wanna love you
Oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
Sometimes you go too far
Lose hold of my heart
That’s a dangerous place to be
You put me to the edge
Heights go to my head
You make it harder and harder to breath
But when you treat me this way
I don’t want to love you
And when you treat my this way
How could I respect you
But when you treat me this way
I don’t want to love you
Love you
Whoa oh oh oh oh
2. Wind on my back
I’ve got the wind on my back
Sun on my shoulders
Don’t need no more map
To get where I’m going
To get where I’m going
Got to get lost somehow
Lost somehow
To know how it’s flowing
You’ve got to ride it out
Ride it out
3. House of the stoic
In between fear and the violence
Down below tears of the blinded
Just above the speed of a heart beat
This is where you’ll find me
Just before the house of the stoic
In between what is real and where the poet live
The street where I ran as a young boy
The place where I learned how thick my blood was
This is where you’ll find me
Where you’ll find me
Surrounded by beats and the energy
The center of the words and the melody
The rise forever on the sun's edge
Where the questions and the brave of the heart live
In between what I’m told and what I know
A mixture of some gold with a healthy soul
You never run, just fight love and see it through
But you’ve got to know when to cut the love loose
This is where you’ll find me
Where you’ll find me
Are you looking for me
4. Stop arresting Johnny
Could you stop arresting Johnny
No more soap dice stories
Blue lights come flashing in
Sirens come roaring
He’s caught up in a rat race
Hoping he can catch a break
And the money stacking it stacking it up
The pressure building up, that’s enough
Stop arresting Johnny
Stop arresting my friend
I got a message on my cell phone
It woke me up two in the morning
It said they found me and they picked me up
Could you help me dude I’m feeling stuck
Just more money that he’s got to spend
A deeper hole he’s falling in
But he never lets it get him down
No we’d never let a brother drown
Stop arresting Johnny
Stop arresting my friend
He never did nothing wrong
Nah, nothing too bad
He never did nothing wrong
Stop arresting Johnny
Stop arresting my friend
5. Freedom
Freedom
Talking about your freedom
I could always get it
In the city with the women
Cause I'm screaming and I'm swimming
I'm a shark in the water
Never had a worry
Cause the world was always spinning
And the colors always blending
Painting pictures without profit
Mama always told me
If you want it go and get it
Always look for something different
Never settle for the normal
Never live for wages
Because birds weren't meant for cages
When your given to the calling
Open up and scream it out
You need your
Freedom, talking about your freedom
I could never stop it
Started dreaming never lost it
Got a fever and I love it
I've been feeling California
Sleeping in the morning
I was dreaming in a moment
I was living in the storm and
I was screaming like the thunder
Never gonna stop I keep with the flow
Never gonna pop I rock and then roll
Always keep it hot like wood to a stove
Give it like a shot ready set explode
Steady on the drop bring it back give me more
Gonna pick it up pick it up let's go
Gonna get the cat in the jam at the show
Never gonna move I'm grooving steady with the
Freedom, talking about your freedom
6. Sunshine
Sunshine
Love is like sunshine
I feel it on my skin
Sinking deeper In
A little bit of sunshine
Love is like sunshine
I feel it on my heart
Felt it from the start
When I wake up in the morning with the sound of the birds
I’ve got a smile on my face
When I put on my shirt
I smile all day
Know what I’ve got
Do you know what I’m saying
Summertime blowing out of my brain
And I got the top rolled back
With the breeze in my face
Catching rays all day
The way that you make me feel is like a little
Sunshine
Love is like sunshine
I feel it on my skin
Sinking deeper In
A little bit of sunshine
Love is like sunshine
I feel it on my heart
Felt it from the start
Hold up
Stand up
People put your hands up
Reaching to catch the feel
Bodies tingling with the feeling
It’s easy
Don’t even got to try it
All of it, now your in the vibe
Singing the song
Nothing is wrong
Feeling the beat with the bass in your feet
And I mixed it in and I mixed it in
And I mixed it with the reggae
Then you know
Whah whah you know
A little bit of sunshine
Love is like sunshine
I feel it on my skin
Sinking deeper In
A little bit of Sunshine
Love is like sunshine
I feel it on my heart
Felt it from the start
7. Rude girl
Daisies in your hair
Sunlight on our skin
Sand between the sheets
Listen to you breathe
Listen to my heart beat
Heart beat
Day turns into night
I rock it steady baby fly
Hit the party or kick it at home
Don’t really matter cause we keep it in the zone
Rude girl (rude)
Come kick it with me
Everything you want
Everything you need
Everything you are
You’re just rude girl (rude)
Come kick it with me
Everything you want
Everything you need
Everything you are
Can all be
Butterflies got stuck inside my belly
Tried booze just to make myself steady
It didn’t help me and now I’ve got to fall
Deeper and deeper every time you call
Here we are and it’s here I want to stay
In the sun even though I’m in the rain
Summer, I never let it fade
Never let it fade
You’re just rude girl (rude)
Come kick it with me
Everything you want
Everything you need
Everything you are
You’re just rude girl (rude)
Come kick it with me
Everything you want
Everything you need
Everything you are
Can all be
8. Sweet Love
She gimme the good love
Good for my health
Type of woman that would never give it to nobody else
She gimme the good love
And when I’m on the road
Don’t you know I’m thinking bout you
No I cannot wait to get home
I cannot wait to get home
She gimme the good love
Don’t need nothing else
Sink into a feeling something like the water moves to a well
She gimme the good love
And when I’m all alone
No need to worry baby
Your the one I need and I want
The one I need and I want
Oh baby I’ve been thinking about you woman
Everything that you say and do, I love it
Don’t worry that I’d be untrue I wouldn’t, I couldn’t
Whoa no, I know what I’ve got, good lovin’
Love it like a drug, a drug that I wanted I’m buzzin
Don’t worry that I’d be untrue I wouldn’t, I couldn’t
9. Home
You feel like coming home
Feel like coming home from the dusty road
Type of woman that would lay me down right now fill up my soul
You are that fire to my frozen bones
I’ve got desires and I know that it shows
Every time I come home off this dusty road
She said she’s loves it how I rock and I roll
Can’t believe it I’m always a rolling stone
She said she loves when we move fast and then slow
You feel like coming home
I’ve got 99 problems but my girl aint one
Cause all we’re doing is having some fun
Can’t believe it I’m always on the run
But I guess that distance only thickens our blood
And I guess that thickness only deepens our love
It’s never work no it’s just growing like a good love should
My lord
What I do
To deserve the sunshine
In darkness now I know I’ll always have the light
Feel like coming home
You feel like coming home
10. Belly Full
We’ve got food in our belly
And herbs in the kitchen
Drinking, come kick it with me
People in the pool
We have people coming over
Yes we’re gonna do it frequently
Positive vibration going
Reggae music feel it blowing through the breeze
Morning light gonna tell me when it’s over
Crimson spelling through the trees
Why ya ya why ya ya oh
And if you ever wanna come
You’ve got to be forever young
Why ya ya why ya ya oh
And if you cannot find your way
Mentality has grown astray
Why ya ya why ya ya oh
Sassy admin show their faces
Everybody gets to taste this
Why ya ya why ya ya oh
And you never want to leave
It’s never sour ever sweet
11. Help Me Through
Until you have walked in my shoes
You would never know the reasons I choose
Melodies that free my mind
I hear them all the time
Saying it’s a love that is true
The only one that has ever stayed
I saw her when I was just a youth
I never have strayed
Oh people how they come and they go
In and out like waters to a tide
My lover she’s more like the sun
Ever burning in my mind
Because you always help me through
Your like a wave
Crashing to the shore
Taking all away but somehow bringing more
Like a breeze
That comes in the summer
Running around my mind because you always make me wonder
Like a sound
That comes from afar
You’re never found
Leave me wanting more
Like a melody
That comes to me in the night
Because you always help me through
When I’m feeling so low
I know where I can go
When I’m feeling so low
Because you always help me through
12. Thailand
Do not worry my love
Although unpredictable life is beautiful
You know it to be true
Yeah yeah I’m gonna miss you
Life is nothing but paths unchosen
Can’t choose til you get to the choices
I hope that I choose correctly
Hope that you won’t forget me
All we can do
I’ll see you in Thailand
All we can do
Wine in northern California
All we can do
Love slow and long
All we can do
Feel this even when we’re gone
Promise nobody’s gonna tame you
Girl you were built for running
If this is goodbye then
Who can blame you
My love you’re simply stunning
You’ll be famous without doing nothing
We can wear our hats real low
Drink coffee like we were hiding
Lean in and kiss me slow
All we can do
I’ll see you in Thailand
All we can do
Wine in northern California
All we can do
Love slow and long
All we can do
Feel this even when we’re gone
