How can I write a 4 minute song
From a 20 second feeling?
Why can I see forever with you
From less than a year of dating?

You say you’re scared
You say I’ll hurt you.
You say you’re terrified
That I will leave you.

The guy you gave you’re all to
Is nowhere near the guy I am.
The guy who you thought loved you
Is nothing like the man I am.

I’m your sensitive song writer guy
Baduy, and corny that’s who I am.
I’m your sensitive singer song writer guy
Chin up, heart’s out, I am your man.
You always say I must forget you
you always say I shouldn't love you
you always tell me
to turn my back
leave you behind
but how can I?

The way I freeze when I see you smile
the way I miss you from a mile
the way we sing, just you and I
I love it

The way you **** me with those I eyes
and when you cried I almost died
the way you look when your hair is tied
i love it

cause to me.you are perfect.
cause for you.everything is worth it.

People say I am
deep. With emotions
astray, words with power,
in chaos. I am
deep for a lot has been taken.
My heart is an open pit --
it grows deeper
the more I give, the more you
take from it. You can
only fill me. With you
I'll be complete.

What vile monstrosity that I see
Looking back at me.

None of it feels real but rather surreal 
as my memories fade into dreams.
The future becomes the present and the present past,
As my memories fade into dreams

I feel lost in a fog, dazed and confused
Confused how I woke up feeling so bruised
I've lost all feeling in my past it would seem
As my past becomes a memory that fades to a dream.

Now that I'm awake it's hard to recall
Standing with caution, afraid I might fall.
Dreams fade into memories that can't be kept,
Memories of dreams, dreams that long to resurrect.

Resurrect from within, a life full of gladness.
Putting to death my sorrows and sadness.
I start to recover from the battle lost
My memories fading like dreams, is the cost.

For shortly after waking, dreams fade away.
In the same manner my memories won't stay. 
I fight to remember, I struggle to hold on
But lo, quick approaching is a burning new dawn.

And with every new coming dawn
Are my thoughts left wandering on,
Warm sun light so brightly gleaming,
My memories quickly fading as I awake from dreaming.

Come and wade with me in Lake Midnight,
Where fireflies join the stars,
Twinkling and glowing yellow warm light,
A swirl of reverie from afar.

Come be one with the water, still and sweet.
We are special guests here
To a concert of crickets, love songs they sing,
Which only you and I can hear.

Come dance with me among moon beams
Illuminating Lake Midnight.
Nature knows us very well, it seems,
Binding our hearts ever so tight.

Come and swim beneath the wild willows,
Watching our bodies become tangled
As we play with the midnight minnows,
Our laughter at a wrangle.

Come to Lake Midnight, where love is reborn,
Amends all that is torn, and makes new what is worn.

Every time I close my eyes
It hurts a little more.

Because I know I'm one night closer
To you being gone.

When God said Moses take this tab
For what I'm gonna say
Ain't so bad
These rules are gonna make man good
And tidy up this neighbourhood

So Moses was ready to chisel away
And put in stone what God had to say
Waiting on the mountain in the wind and rain
Not getting fancy with all the chat
Just laying it down with a little holy rap

God's in da hood
In my back yard
Breaking bad souls
Yo it's all good

Now God he spoke in a godly way
Saying hey Moses my dog don't you play
Around with da words I'm rapping all day
Coz this ain't no **** you be messin wid
For all man is gonna say
**** that God he's gonna be right one day
