Callow
Early morning wake up only thing i’m thinking about
while staring at the ceiling whiling
Get some food up in my tummy stretching hella happy
and when I want it it’ll get all done for me
I like the way it feel
it feel like something o so heavenly or velvety or lovely
I got family that love me and
daddy care about me
mummy cares about me too and there's
love for me and love for you
There's love for everybody uuuhhh
there's no way life could ever be cruel oh no uuhhh
Heard stories around me
that there is really a dark
hear its gets dark outside
But I don’t really care focused on sparks and feels
think that I'll meet the one like i have seen up in the movies
And he’ll love me exactly how I him
With no one above me
nothing above me except these shining lights
the skys my limit momma told me that like once or twice
So I believe it starry-eyed
i’m looking up you know
I met this boy I had a crush on bout a week ago
he talked to me I like that way he made me feel
I wrote his name like a thousand times on my notes to feel the chills
da da da
skipping happily into the horizon
One day I’ll save the world and be the greatest no surprises

On Your Own
Boom the splash hits
Molecules slicing through pores and layered skin
Enough to fill the drums
How I am supposed to hear a thing
Fear fills my mouth and silencing it all to take it
Dare to drown or learn to swim
damn
Mehn its hard for me to see the dim
Reach out if nobody’s rooting for my win
No bedtime stories no so I am hella woke
Time is of the essence
Apparently, that's a thing you know
Errantly that's the way to grow
A series hits of first days of strangers lined up in rows
To check some paperwork that proves enough to know ur worth And woe is you my nigga if you ever try to feel assured
Ever try to feel assured yeah
A lot of things don’t go the way
You plan it but the truth is easier to go with eh
So I don’t try to bite the whole damn cake
Yeah
I mean I only chew what I can take
Mehn It don’t take a lot to get me disengaged
Life alone is tough enough to turn you to a savage bae
with lemonade yeah from the tree that sprouted
In the backyard
Yo I’m just trine get it
Tryna go far
Go far yeah
Mehn Its just loose tings loose thoughts
This is what its like when I am trying to get out loose sparks
Bubbled up to spilling
Get ahead to tighten them spots
Nobody is gon chance me now that's a real thought
Yeah
Mehn Its just loose tings loose thoughts
This is what its like when I am trying to get out loose sparks
Bubbled up to spilling
Get ahead to tighten them spots
Nobody is gon chance me now that's a real thought

One, Two
Whatever you do
They either gon love you
Or them got hate you
One, Two
Whatever you do
They either got love you
Or them got hate you
Its like One, Two
Whatever you do
Time don’t sleep and its coming for you
Days creep away and its like
The grim reapers saying what a night
To be alive aloud is getting near a mic
Anyway it is to me believe the hype
Anything things that lead me down to here
Is part of larger pictures I can’t swipe
Make us sure unsure of whats important
Life is nothing short of
Shortened wins, losses, reports and
To play out like some Tim Burton written
Blur out the horror
And sprinkle in the funny drama action
In that order
It just makes you stronger
One, Two
Whatever you do
They either got love you
Or them got hate you
One, Two

BYOH (Be Your Own Hero)
Lemon-tree sprouted in the backyards next to glass shards
Paddles ball with table tennis on reservoirs
Hanging with the neighbors playing catcher
and whot cards make them pick some 3s yelling I dash ya
Child
Its sorta never easy is it
Never one to play too well with others sorta different
You been broken before and put back together splintered
master of shit they never thought to you would be apparent
Knocked down once a bit to many times
Gotten back to put the metal to the grind
Don’t just talk about it
I mean be about it you will shine
Looking to familiar facial features mirrored back in kind
Don’t don’t lose you
Be your own hero
Grab a cape or grab a hat put on a mask too
Bet ya you look nice rocking some spandex yeah
The rustling of wind in motion as you fly through air
Dust off the what’d they say about me
Gosh I hope they understand me
Steady tryna build something up for the future for the family
Dreaming in my jammies
Writing up the speech for future Grammys
With the pen down on some paper
Tryna be as brave as grammy
Was
Pictures of landscapes and backdoors
Ring around the roses spelling HAPPY on the see-saw
Easy
things don’t ever seem to get so easy does it
Easy doesn't
Make you great you learn from your mistakes
in dozens
