I went out that night and had fun Drinking laughing and playing games It was great I didn't spend a dime But that night could be the worse All the lights went out and I didn't know I didn't know the debts I come to owe Receiving a text of your transactions You have to pay for these transgressions Now you gotta boss up and be a man I don't know how it happened but I spent a lot I don't know if I lost everything yet But trust is gone she'll never forget She may be gone to that transaction is still pending Even if it doesn't go through it'll never look the same I will spend my whole life getting that back I just want you to tell me I can have you back

Broke
Being with you it's all smiles and giggles There's no twist turns rhymes or riddles We are what people may call lovie dovie Every second spent being silly and happy I don't ever want it to stop being this way So let's stay in the honeymoon phase forever Long sweet good morning text A simple time nothing Rolex But gee let's watch if time slows Let's take this phase where time goes So let's kickback relax and chill have a drink We ain't gotta go nowhere anytime soon Let's stay in the honeymoon phase forever Let's keep the whip with that new car smell Shoes fresh out the box with all the value Natural hair with the scent of cantu Like telling the same joke over and over but it's still funny Same terms of endearment bae or boo We can do something not many can do So let's stay in this honeymoon phase me and you

Honeymoon Phase
As a child I could see it following me Tapping on my shoulder I don't know you stop bothering me Why do you want me why won't you leave me alone Offering me something but momma said don't talk to strangers So I'm running yelling DANGER DANGER! Still running although I've grown We no longer go to that place I first saw you Yet you followed us WHO ARE YOU? You're still chasing me after all the hate I've shown You almost caught me but you were a little too slow I'm running away from you but you know where I wanna go. I almost just let you have me but I got some baddies in my phone I got friends around me that definitely won't let you catch up Until I mustered up the courage to ask yo what's up Follow me and that ice will never melt in that cone I think to myself lol nah no way Pick my stuff and continue about my day He continues chasing me just when I thought he was gone But I'm no longer running I'm just walking I'm not really listening but I hear him talking Then we come to the end of this road made of stone He looks at me and ask do you fall or follow? I can take you across or you can try solo He says you know who I am and you've always known I realize this one man is a trinity He says I give life for infinity Come and see the throne The only way to get across this gap only he can fill Is to let him take the wheel and do his will I hate being by myself he says don't worry son I'll never leave you alone.

The Follower
Those hands those hands Those rough rough hands Beating and punching Scratch when touching Those hands those hands Those rough rough hands Calluses from the friction All thickened and hardened Those hands those hands Those rough rough hands Calls for control and demand Hands like paper of sand Those hands those hands Those rough rough hands Of a everyday hardworking man There's a story behind those hands Those rough rough hands
