Tighten, my pins Push them all deep so you have a good grip Dispose, my skin And etch on my wood that you’re cracking the whip Now that you’re the one with all the control You used your stronghold to suck out my soul I used to walk with no stress on my limbs But you cast your strings, and I had to give in You’re like a crow Cut off your ties or I’ll come off the rack Letting you go I will resist til my wood starts to crack How should, I know The moment you’re fed up and pull on my thread Waiting, for your blow Whenever you lie and don’t pull up my head I will free myself from this Frail embrace You’re like a crow Cut off your ties or I’ll come off the rack Letting you go I will resist till my wood starts to crack You’re like a crow Cut off your ties or I’ll come off the rack Letting you go I will resist til my wood starts to crack With no return You left me in a state of uncertainty Willing to burn If I’m not myself, then who else should I be?

Petty Hoes 05:08
Verse 1: One time I got screwed real bad My girl was a-fightin for all I had She said “I’m not mad” but I teased it out “You’re scarin’ me honey, no need to shout” I’m the enemy of her verbal war I try to escape but she still wants more Just tryna hold the peace and not say shit And somehow she gets offended by it Chorus: I held my tongue but still got branded Gotta watch out for the petty hoes She tried to explain but I didn’t understand it Betta (pause) watch out for the petty hoes Petty hoes Verse 2: Now I gotta tip-toe around the house I tried being honest but she still had doubts She prances ‘round the point but ne’er gets there honestly, you can really be blunt, I don’t care If you just speak true, hell, you’d save us both time! Then maybe I wouldn’t have to write this rhyme But whenever I sit back and sip my wine You say, “bullshit, that’s way outta line” Chorus: I held my tongue but still got branded Gotta watch out for the petty hoes She tried to explain but I didn’t understand it Betta watch out for the petty hoes Petty hoes Verse 3: They always hang around like thought police Now I’m trying to leave, she says “no baby, pls” To think this is the girl I used to admire Now I’m ready to cast it into the fire So I took my bags and I took my car And I told my friends to meet me at the bar No worries in my mind and a cold beer in hand Pray to God that don’t ever happen again Chorus: I held my tongue but still got branded Gotta watch out for the petty hoes She tried to explain but I didn’t understand it Betta (pause) watch out for the petty hoes Petty hoes Petty hoes

Hyperaction 03:46
VERSE 1 I don't know what's In your mind I just know it can be refined In this world there's no recourse Me to you is no remorse Cause I’ve had it with the pharmacies Planting razors inside of me But I can’t sit here playing dumb When there’s so much to be done CHORUS 1 Choke down this bitter pill I cannot eat and cannot sleep but I can remain so still to Sit here and do everything now so when you come to me dont Be offended by my blank stare I feel empty But there is much to be done VERSE 2 I sit And wait And now i'm walking out again I pace I wait For the tension to rise again I’m down I’m high I’ve never felt a focus that I could chew on Why Am I Not feeling anything at all? CHORUS 2 Choke down this bitter pill I cannot eat and cannot sleep but I can remain so still to Sit here and do everything now So when you come to me dont Be offended by my blank stare Ive gone crazy But there's much to be done (Guitar solo) CHORUS 3 Choke on this bitter end I cannot eat and cannot sleep but I still try to pretend I Can do anything I want now So when you come to me don’t Be offended by my blank stare I feel perfect but There’s something wrong OUTRO I’m flying high, high, high I’m flying high, high, high I’m flying high, high, high I’m flying high, high, high High, high, high! High, high, high! High, high, high! High, high, high, high!

Wolves 04:28
Through this wood I walk alone cold is biting to the bone Howling wind, through my mind Isolated, undefined Crack the whip, drive me on Walking through til the dawn My body yearns to collapse In one more bad relapse Twisting in my bitter sleep I am just a bitter creep Hearing my own future creep Only born to die no peep All Alone Falling through the broken cracks The Wolves are hunting in their packs The stalker sends his own impact When daggers fly into their backs Let me go To and fro, twist and turn Some things you can never learn Taunting me, oh so close sleep oh sleep, I’ll have my dose Counting sheep, in their flock I’m kept awake with shock Insomnia, take me home From their hateful gaze I can’t roam Twisting in my bitter sleep I am just a bitter creep Hearing my own future creep Only born to die no peep All Alone Falling through the broken cracks The Wolves are hunting in their packs The stalker sends his own impact When daggers fly into their backs Let me go Curse me once : Cause my flight Curse me twice : cause my bite Curse me three times die tonight I am one who’s entered plight Blow me up I’m dynamite Revel in my endless spite Spite Spite Spite BANSHEE SCREAM
