Choke

You're so voiceless
you grab the headliners
and spit them out-
you like the sound
but you're so empty under that body,
don't tell me you feel heavy.
Don't you know we see right through
your dense words?
Keep talking.
(Sounds of the voiceless)
I'm hearing myself say,
I’ve heard this a thousand times before.
Someday’s all I've got is a voice
in the back of my throat
but I won't choke.
I won’t-
Won't you wake up
and feel something
you know you don't have to be a ghost anymore
Are you a guest in your own ghost life
with your packed bag and fear of impact.
You can only fear what you've seen before,
so fight your demons,
don't give them hope.
At the end of the day all that matters is
are you dead or are you sleeping?
Won't you wake up and feel something
Someday’s all I've got is a voice
in the back of my throat
but I won't choke.
I won’t-
Won't you wake up
and feel something
you know you don't have to be a ghost anymore
Won't you wake up
and feel something
you know you don't have to be a ghost anymore x3

Hand Me Downs

There are no givens,
Except what we’re given by the ones who came before us
But they left us a puzzle,
Late birthday wrapping, thick paper, paper cuts
We are creatures of a culture we create,
But we are still afflicted with our contextual birthplace
This problem’s generations old,
Hand-me-down psychology
Perfectly the puzzle pieces
Fit between my mom and me
Late birthday wrapping, thick paper, paper cuts
What they couldn’t figure, they have left for us
You are me, I’m not you
Suffering, still burns through
Hand-me-down pain!
Hand me-down pain!

I used to write a lot about the people I used to love
But I don't love no one anymore
And I don't know how to love you and not be scared
Because I'm not sure such things exist anymore
But if I could-
I'm sure I'd tell you
I’d kiss every notch in your spine if the shivers that it sent kept your chin up all the time
I’d kiss every notch in your spine if the shivers that it sent kept your chin up all the time
Id kiss every notch in your spine
I really regret what happened in newark
On johns roof
I saw the blood spill from your lips
And I didn't know what to do
I want to tell you I love you
But I don't know if I do
I'm scared of making promises
I'm not sure I can keep
Sometimes I just don't have the right words to say-
Sometimes I just don't have the right words to say
And I never want to see your eyes turn grey
Sometimes I just don't have the right words to say
And I never want to see your eyes turn grey
I’d kiss every notch in your spine if the shivers that it sent kept your chin up all the time
I’d kiss every notch in your spine if the shivers that it sent kept your chin up all the time
Sometimes I just don't have the right words to say
And I never want to see your eyes turn grey
I’d kiss every notch in your spine

Almost Infinite

I can't explain what's missing
In the gaps in-between.
I thought it was chemistry but it was just maps of the subway.
So what are you trying to tell me. After all this time
Cause it's been years since I've seen your face.
And our eyes don't quite align
The same way
So what are you trying to tell me. After all this time
Cause it's been years since I've seen your face.
And our eyes don't quite align
The same way
It's amazing how people make the same mistakes they swore they'd never make.
But we keep trying.
We all make the same mistakes
And we aren't bad people
Sometimes we do bad things
It's ok as long as we are growing
We all make the same mistakes
And we aren't bad people
Sometimes we do bad things
It's ok as long as we are growing
We all make the same mistakes
And we aren't bad people
Sometimes we do bad things

The Spitting Image
04:34

You’re the image they spit out
From your head to your toes you know you’ve got his nose
Got his nose
Kid nursing salivary glands
Surgical fear, it took them years
To splice you up and put you back again
You’ve got your mom’s eyes, and your dad’s jawline
You know you stole it, when you were born
You’ve got your mom’s lies, your dad’s incline
They gave’em to you, now you’re torn
Your body won’t accept the transplant
Rejected organs left stagnant, new blood grows
New blood grows
Conjoined veins strangle your throat
Cut the cord or put a voice behind those words
You’ve got your mom’s eyes, and your dad’s jawline
You know you stole it, when you were born
You’ve got your mom’s lies, your dad’s incline
They gave’em to you, now you’re torn
There’s no image, and I’m not spitting
But these articles and follicles, they know
My bones have grown so big and strong
I guess I drank my milk
They’ve been stronger than yours all along
I’ve got my mom’s eyes, and my dad’s jawline
You know I stole’em, when I was born
I’ve got my mom’s lies, my dad’s incline
They gave’em to me, now I’m torn
I’m not spitting
I’m not spitting
I’m not spitting, anymore
You’ve been spitting
You’ve been spitting
You’ve been spitting, all along

A Home to Call Your Own

I’ve watched this house turn to boxes
and empty bookshelves.
I’ve seen their eyes turn grey,
and it’s not from dust,
it’s not from age.
I’ve watched this house (turn)
I’ve watched this house turn to boxes
I’ve seen your eyes turn grey
and it’s not from dust
it’s not from age
I’ve watched this house (turn)
I’ve watched this house turn to boxes
I’ve seen your eyes turn grey
I’ve seen
I’ve seen
You said i was lucky
i had these four walls
with the word ‘love’
etched into every single one.
We all know paint peels and
Even we wake up one day
to every single wall
left bare and empty.
left bare and empty
you said i was lucky
left bare and empty
you said i was lucky
Now the locks are broken,
the doors left wide open,
the thresholds have turned cold since
we last crossed them
This house is a home
to whomever wants it-
Friends, put your hands together,
build yourselves a home-
Don’t matter where you’re going
or where you’re from,
Friends, put your hands together,
build yourselves a home-
Family is the blood
you choose to call your own
