[Intro] One day at a time GioGio [Verse 1] One day at a time, I promised myself to get out of this slump Pain and the bites, harness my health Reroute and bring luck to this city Who's tryna fuck with me? These clowns wanna see me in cuffs Burn all my shit, heat me up like Gus I don't feel no one, not even a touch Paid my dues, still rich, not speaking 'bout funds And I'll make it way out from the projects Whether you want it, I'll lay on the ground Berettas and Glocks is aimed at the clouds When rappers with watches more safe in their house Than yappin' and walking, so spray and go blow I'll have to be honest or say what I'm 'bout This my last concert, it's great, take a bow (yeah) I wrote "GIOGIO?" and I wrote "Claire" Was a low blow, man, it ain't fair Made rebirth, but it's still old me I don't care no more, better go OD If I was in a grave, I'd be still top 3 Above you lames, you heard this beat? Love in shame, blurt shit I don't believe Shove my brain, my mom dropped the kid Am I gone or Gio's yet to leave? Oh God, throw debts out the window How many more I'll have to please? My bro and dad, woah, that's so sick Roll off the bed, the floor not even clean Feel worse I have to win Go to sleep at 4, wake up at 5 "What's up with Gio? He looks so tired Is it 'cause of the deal with Claire, or should I say bargain?" Should I say fuck it? I don't know man, but that rope looks inviting One day is the time we'll all be ridin' [Hook] One day, one day, one day, ok ok One day, one day, one day, ok ok One day, one day, one day, ok ok One day, one day, one day, one day [Verse 2] There's a fine line between my jokes I don't know when to push it and pull it slow So for the whole night you write a song And it's so nice, it's got it all A story, the sound, the drums and the soul And you 'bout to release it on your first album It's 'bout a girl that you barely know But she struggles with weight and her dad is gone Do you do it for the profit? Do you do it for the passion? Best would be both, but both of us know That interest and wishin' are often clashin' Do you do it for the public? Do you do it for yourself? Well none of your friends gon' listen to this shit So spit it how you please, you need some help (Gio) I turned soft, I once was a beast in a pit that ate all Got my guns cocked, reload, straight from the hip, you'll never stop these flows And I race y'all like a NASCAR, you wanna face off? I'm leatherface with a chainsaw Better pick up the pace, bro Off the humble shit, I'll show forgiveness Lock my hunger, still a no for business Mock my younger self, I walked the distance I brought my mother wealth, it warped my vision Most you white collars could never watch it, so better suck it Tight office got your feet burnin' Mic on, it's king Merlin Pick up the pen, I don't know what to write Hit me in the head 'til ideas start flyin' It's me, you and I, cover the red of these wrists with a bottle of wine God, I decide, since I sent my face on a post online And Alex left me, then Gio died I was like twelve, she told me one day I'll suicide Changed me forever, this is not another letter To a lover, I was gettin' way too honest on a camera To be sittin' in a coffin' at the bottom of my head I feel it way too close to be closing all these chapters Forgive me if I go without a warn as a rapper And my foes choke, it was foretold that Gio would die a legend When will it happen? [Outro] The fallen angel

[Intro] Yeah, yeah Uh huh, yeah [Verse 1] My name is immortal, that shit will never die with me I'm stayin' immoral, got angels still cryin' for me Staying that mortal, that shit is just life to me Changing that lowball into minimal privacy Got 'em demons on my back, God, I'm leaning on myself No, don't think I need some help, call that living on the edge Caught some feelings for the stress, forgot that shit it's in my past To be honest, hon, I got this locked, it's in the bag I got this Glock that's in my hand, I'm shooting for the stars I've been stupid from the start and it's lookin' like I stunt I've been through it with no luck, that cookin' with no money I've been due a quick glow up, rat-putrid, it's so funny Reached my highest peak, rinsed the driest skin Seen the lion's den, seek my righteous will, another dime to steal before I like the deal I write to feel mighty, divinely wield rhymes and rhythms My eyes got the fire in 'em [Bridge] They look at my face and cry They remember how I was in their perfect eyes Last thing I've ever saved was sayin' goodbye As my halo hits the ground with my name and spine [Hook] I guess I've fallen Must've got it all wrong, hey But don't act innocent 'Cause you made me fall then [Verse 2] You can take all my achievements, you can hate on my image You complain, I'ma listen, but I stray from the kissing On my enemies' foreheads, I will stand by peace broken Understand, for this token I have bled the sea of Moses Label me a traitor, they be waiting on my next move Bathin' me in danger just to blame it on my health too It's pavements on my ass, cool, nothing pays me like these tracks do Forsaken me a stranger, name my wake and people ask "who?" A fucking rascal, loving hands thrown, nothing less and what could he have more? Me at my best, hoe, is peer pressure, I'm still mad for evenings I spent poor So you can rob me of my identity, block me from my fantasy Mock it and fight empathy, shocking, you guys envy me Preachers tell you pride is the devil Idiots, landed on I when I fell off [Bridge] They look at my face and cry They remember how I was in their perfect eyes Last thing I've ever saved was sayin' goodbye As my halo hits the ground with my name and spine [Hook] I guess I've fallen Must've got it all wrong, hey But don't act innocent 'Cause you made me fall then [Verse 3] You abandoned me, clapped for the accuse, back of me slapped You could use my baggage as trap, you induce my faculties snap You seduce masses and slack, you'd produce a platinum plaque Views on statues and that abusive past on your mask You cannot impress me, homie, you smell of plastic, homie I descend in depths below me just as friends fret to throw me Off the heavens, back to lonely lands to grow in Smash an opening into grass, exploding, crash a hole in my hellish omen World in the palm of my hands, as a kid Just hold on 'til I'll palm it again, was a minute That I lost what brought me this mess, what a finish That I crossed just 'cause I'm the best, uh Disfigured, on my face scars The insignia of a faint love Been figured as a saint but This figure never remains such, yeah
3.
[Intro: GioGio] Yeah, yeah Woah, shit Woah, shit Woah, shit [Verse 1: GioGio] I'm always remembering Gio as a child, joking around It's joggin' my memory, wrote me a style, rode it to town Step to me? Fuck it, just let 'em sing Rhyme it, I get some hits, funny, 'cause as a kid Used to get bruises when I got me punch in the mouth A vengeance to maggots who lend me a beat A millennial whose efforts will live for centuries I'm the centerpiece, a centipede, I have endless feats Just look at what Jay just sent to me It's a sentiment to just wreck a kit When the words from your brain just erupt in a haze And their birth in a space where they meant to be It's a catastrophe for an asshole whose ass is a fan to me Offendin' me? Well, come at me, G I sell like a boat, why the hell you think I call my life a shipwreck Even if my records ship? [Hook: GioGio] Go for broke Shit, you hate me but it's counterpro- Ductive, I duck it, funny, the amount of work that I do Just to go for broke [Verse 2: Aktivist] Game got fucked so I'll change the rubber Go for broke like I chase these hoes Whose banks read 0 like they hate these numbers Chain-link cover that I spray each sucker from You don't know but Jay-Lee's gutter come Pop a dumb freak like an appalam We can get deep like an avalanche You don't want beef when I'm at the ranch I deflect the shit like light rays Epileptic fit'll leave you lied sideways, read what the sign says This Jay-Lee with Gio few flow like our sine waves We loop holes like we tie lace (Why am I back now?) To spit facts, when you say ''give brain'' (brain) You mean with lip smacks This runs like Usain Bolt on a kids track Watch how you get rolled like oat packs When I go for broke I smoke foes Anyone in range gets toked so (woah) Let's go get takin' your photos 'Cause what's next you bein' exposed, so [Hook: GioGio] Go for broke Shit, you hate me but it's counterpro- Ductive, I duck it, funny, the amount of work that I do Just to go for broke [Verse 3: GioGio] So you pray for my fall, ''Gio is delusional, go for the cubicle Roll with the numero uno Cope with the fumes when you're paid on the 4th'' I've been left in the cold, but I made it so warm I'm not beefing at all, but I'm seeking comfort If you're speaking 'bout me, you better come forth I'm sick of the bitter and badder, I go for the throat Back when my feelings were choked Bullies who had me in the hold and gave me the fuel "Surely you're ending unknown, emptied by school And dead on the road" Mary, your son has no hope Have it, you sung on your own Ready, you fucks whether alone Or together, the weather is pleasant I grab on my weapon and let it unload
4.
[Verse 1] Do you even know yourself? Is it something you can hold? Is it a pot full of gold, is it a curse from my own? Do you even care to be? Special, I mean, is it worth it, my dear? To be given that seal Is it love from the others? Is it love from yourself? But what is love without lovers, what is love if not real? I've been searching far and wide for a little lie to keep inside That could tell me I'm special, special, oh, special [Pre-Hook] Tell me what you think it is I pray it might be infinite Stick it to my strings and then Tell me that I'm winning it But tell me what you think it is The doubt that we are living in It's a sin to merely speak of it [Hook] What makes a person special? Makes us question Are you? Am I not that special? Can a label placed upon my forehead say that I am special What makes a person special? [Post-Hook] Special, I'm special, you're special Special, I'm special, you're special [Interlude] Uh huh, yeah Ok, yeah (question) [Verse 2] Can celebrities walk on water? Does the president even love his momma? Is a pessimist a no-recover? Should a rapper get a cover-job, huh? Do the children deserve the bombings? Should the system preserve its promise? Shoot you bitches, but dear judge, this verse is metaphoric What makes a person special, wh-when the weapon's in your hands tho' And you blast those dirty of their last work On their last leg with their mass-hope, (What's that?) It's a last-man-standing situation but the last man standing is that lone He can't stand himself with a leg broken Do you wager a grave could be special? When you're knee leveled in a kid's temple And you wait for grenades to be careful But your leader got the ringer on that kid's head, so A big asshole can still be a lil special Well shit, then I'm in and set for I'll sing falsetto and win a medal, just give the tempo I could be a star, I could get a Grammy I don't give a fuck, you can copycat me I'll keep it a buck, don't call me trending I'm an incompetent and condescending But I'm confident you can't protest me When I'm dropping this, they keep on asking "Are you special Gio?" Well no, bro, but I'm the best me [Pre-Hook] Tell me what you think it is I pray it might be infinite Stick it to my strings and then Tell me that I'm winning it But tell me what you think it is The doubt that we are living in It's a sin to merely speak of it [Hook] What makes a person special? Makes us question Are you? Am I not that special? Can a label placed upon my forehead say that I am special What makes a person special? [Post-Hook] Special, I'm special, you're special Special, I'm special, you're special

[Part I] [Intro] Uh, huh Yeah, ok [Verse 1] Dici che ti ho deluso, non sono più lo stesso Non sorrido manco più, raggiungo giugno senza stress, O- -Ppure se aggiungo sentimento mi sento giù Quanto ripudio quella giusta parola che conclude con -esso Ma più che aprire il cuore, dimmi cosa posso fare Provo a reprimere l'amore, muoio solo come un cane Sono tutto ciò che odiavo, umano sotto le cazzate Ho fatto molto per del pane per rincorrere mio padre Non faccio più discorsi, scrivo solo le canzoni Schivo luci e riflettori, mi uccidono da fuori Ci invidiano, scrittori, lucifero è tra voi, ah Scusami le scuse succinte, t'annoia Pure se stiamo da soli, viviamo rapidi e poi Facciamo i salti di gioia fino a toccare il soffitto Fino agli scatti di noia, fino a scontrare il destino Tipo che parli di roba fino a scoccare il mattino, yeah [Hook] Dimmi, sei delusa da me? Scusa, ero nella mia testa Cercavo un risposta che non fosse questa Quindi dimmi, sei delusa da me? Sei delusa da me? Dimmi, sei delusa da me? Scusa, ma delusa da che? Pensavo ad un fossa che fosse aperta Quindi forse sei delusa da me? Sei delusa da me? [Verse 2] Mi sento in colpa solo quando è troppo tardi Li sento quando son da solo, tengo il conto, troppi sbagli Pensieri con i pezzi sfatti, non riesco a collegarli Che passati gli anni manco io so perdonarmi Prima ero molto più bravo Seduto nel banco, molto più calmo Ora morto nell'animo, ve lo porto sul palco Almeno è intrattenente quando le tende si alzano Le occhiaie di chi dorme mai, chi chiami non risponde mai, ehi Ah si, quando tornerai? Basta che non farai tardi Che piove fuori e c'hai male agli arti Quanto male agli altri hai fatto? Mi dici che sei meglio di me, che siam nemici pure se Io assomiglio a te e tu assomigli a me Quindi scusa se ti chiedo ma [Hook] Dimmi, sei deluso da me? Scusa, ero nella mia testa Cercavo un risposta che non fosse questa Quindi dimmi, sei deluso da me? Sei deluso da me? Dimmi, sei deluso da me? Scusa, ma deluso da che? Pensavo ad un fossa che fosse aperta Quindi forse sei deluso da me? Sei deluso da me? [Part II] [Verse] Frate, sto meglio da solo, tanto mi state sul cazzo Ma quale ragazzino d'oro, ti stacco il cranio con n'calcio Se vedo il me del passato, gli schiaffi che tiro, ti giuro Fanno tremare la terra, fanno svegliare Nettuno, uh Non scrivo canzoni d'amore, fanculo, a cosa mi serve? Io scrivo canzoni di odio, sicuro qualcuno ci perde Guarda la cover art, frate, Lucifero vi piscia in testa, uh Fa che la rabbia rimane, più ne ho, più mi completa, uh Stavo da solo nel back, stavo con Ema e Alex, (e, e, e) Stavo contento e depresso, ora le pare mi appaion di petto Mi dicono ''Vai, prova un timing diverso'' Certo che parto come n'pazzo frate, mi pari sto cazzo, che cazzo fate? Un cazzo pare, meglio morto che scarso frate

Dear Diary 03:24
[Verse 1] I just feel the need to say sorry It ain't much, I fear, and my face worried I munch on ideas when the pain's working See myself as a kid and they're all looking At me and they all judgin', all laughin', so funny 'Cause I'm neglectin' my friends around me Wasn't even remembering today's your birthday I was too busy laying chords way perfect Think I'm 'bout to drown, I don't swim 'bove surface They lie I'm too profound, wanna steal my sole purpose Soul's purpose? Wait, I just write songs And they perpetuate like wars, my whole focus I've forgiven opponents, even Alex So different roads chosen, rid of malice And even those don't lead to good, so Many motherfuckers wanna read my tombstone [Hook] I've been filling you up with these dark thoughts You say ''Is it ok, will they all stop?'' I don't know, but let's go 'til the ball drops I'm so sorry for the pain I brought upon Write in you, ride for you, cry for you, oh Lie for you, side with you, you lightin' my soul Nothing even matters so say fuck it Will you stay with me, my dear diary? [Verse 2] So I flip your pages like I don't already know What they speak or say in ink I've wasted But these mirrors are faking Reflect on my past when I lived incubated Through trials and tribulations as a child Ask about ''What is love?'' I never felt it My surroundings were dark, had to match 'em And surviving was hard, you were either a star or a felon So I gotta say thank you, you were always by my side Through the fights with ammo, we divide, I left you You define my level to be right and careful So many nights cried with devils And my demons still cry for me, oh, the irony Reach for my wrist and try to fist fight with me Will you die with me, my dear diary? [Bridge] I've been filling you up with these dark thoughts You say ''Is it ok, will they all stop?'' I don't know, but let's go 'til the ball drops I'm so sorry for the pain I brought upon Write in you, ride for you, cry for you, oh Lie for you, side with you, you lightin' my soul Nothing even matters so say fuck it Will you stay with me, my dear diary? [Hook] I've been filling you up with these dark thoughts You say ''Is it ok, will they all stop?'' I don't know, but let's go 'til the ball drops I'm so sorry for the pain I brought upon Write in you, ride for you, cry for you, oh Lie for you, side with you, you lightin' my soul Nothing even matters so say fuck it Will you stay with me, my dear diary?

Showtime 02:58
[Verse 1] Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the show There is nothing to be seen or be heard I'll be first to talk, yo, there is nothing but empty seats And mannequins instead of them in their spots tho I'll be done eventually, but not for so long Tell the president I'm not for sale, hoe Yell and flex again, "you'll end in hell, Gio I preferred your debut, you were better before What happened with Claire and the shit you was mad about? Was the whole record a fake just to gain some clout? Was your intent to escape from the debts of your daddy's route? Would you please answer my laughing mouth?" I've been left in doubt, I guess I needed time to get back on my bullshit I'll keep it a dime, this rap is consumin' My feelings of dying get stacked with the music [Hook] La, la, la la la la, la la la La, la, la la, la la La, la, la la la And whe- when I'm gone too, don't even cry This life is a show, I need to sing along now [Verse 2] Maybe I'm too wishful with what I want Long time no see Alright, go Gee-Oh Write a sixteen tight for people That's never gonna bother with you Should've inherited and gotten your brother's iq 'Cause your mother tried to get you in a little better headspace For when you run from high school and get a lack of accolades (Oh no) Motherfuckers, wouldn't you like that? Just so I can write that in my nice pad And you assholes can then whine, so my wine stacks And my wife snaps like a tight band (Snap) I don't shake hands, I stay mad for as long as I played a sane man I'm still the same lame ass with the same exact pair of gonads [Hook] La, la, la la la la, la la la La, la, la la, la la La, la, la la la And whe- when I'm gone too, don't even cry This life is a show, I need to sing along now [Verse 3] So you wanna know 'bout Claire and Gio Or drool while you just gon' stare? Let me check the list, got rejected It's kinda messed but god, just get two feet away from me At least I got new content that my three followers on IG Can ignore to then unfollow me I guess they're bored of same old me And real talk for just one second I still got that smug-fuck passion Of a kid brought up-by records MCs' art, spun rhymes backwards Then dream of fun, I, rapper? It's begun, my bastards Life might egg on, that cunt tried lemons on me But one day at a time I gave life my lemons [Hook] La, la, la la la la, la la la La, la, la la, la la La, la, la la la Went from lil sings to "I fell in love" This life is a show, I need to sing along now
8.
[Intro] Yeah, yeah [Verse] Every time I place the pen upon the paper It's kinda pleasant, but my brain is pensive and depressed when it stops the train of - Thought, 'cause it wants every verse to be at state of art Pressin' on my gun's trigger but I missed the mark Stressed since the day I made a beat and then played a song Played it for Jay, ''It's great, man, amazing'' Guess I manmade a façade, now my ass is facin' that frost I'm just tryna meet expectations, that's all I guess it stems back from the times I was a little kid I never slacked, that was a right that wasn't fit for me So teachers' work ridiculous, it took a week to finish it And idiots would ridicule me, always picking on the skinniest I'm dreamin' of achieving it, I'm aiming for what's perfect That lady with the curves n' a relation with no curtains Saving on a purchase or laying on a surface Waiting to be given the ok for your own crib That feeling like you just might fail Right, fearin' the jump prevails That excitement that drives us crazy I can't provide a line to explain it I know I'm always searching for it The perfect verse that could scourge recordings So that a hurting colleague would conserve annoyance And rework his performance in a form of mourning And any tone that was roaring would transform according Lots of wasted potential on my waist and my temples I'll be placed on the best of the failures and assholes 'Cause I can't pick a side, I just lack the decisiveness The stature and status to feel my contempt Always on my mind, my parents couldn't pay rent So Gio would have a try, I gave in into that great mess And so I began to slide little paying's just to save dad From workin' all the time for lame-ass paychecks I can feel the eyes on me, I just kill a rhyme and tell it to lie for me I just keep a vibe that's singing ''I got it'' But when that ticket expirin' its demons iconic It's due to how stupid I am, I act different And you's consumin' as fans, my plans limpin' As soon as start brewing the last, I'm back in it Assumin' my music could pass like transmittance So enter all the laziness, the mentor of my aching head The days I spent in bed rotating, temper on a raging red The temperature starts to raise in fact, like pressure when you blaze some gas Oppression on my baby steps, attendance for my shaky legs I don't want nobody to touch me You might crush me, that lust ain't giving me much But fright rushing, it's messed up, I still feel it as such I might cry, shit Vulnerable was not a trait to trade with me for them I showed my open door and gave the frame a key as well The only girl whose patience faced with a ring from Zales Had surely known I was deeply frail, simply stale You're fucked up to the bone, always far from your home, woah I'ma talk to a ghost, then go on with the walls, woah I loop my finger around this silver lining At least my new rigor is bound to sicker lines n' You could stick a chewed swisher down my liver, smiling I withstood much thicker grounds to live confined in Being flawless, yeah, is my prison, Pink Floyd with the light prism Sig Freud with the mind research, psyched on every fine detail The only thing that links me to my old self is suicide attempts Should've picked a sharper blade and all The motives mixed with sleep is relief, no help with seein' light of lamps Almost reached the nicer place above Shit, I'm all out of beginner's luck The merry goes round on the guinness love A criminal, foul, with an English glove I just live in the sound when I think too much [Outro] I'm just tryna meet expectations, that's all
9.
[Intro] You see, you're a particular case, aren't ya? Unique, really No other way to describe it I get it, I get it, it's hard to accept it And sometimes, things won't go the way you want 'em to And that's ok, they shouldn't I can't promise you that I can fix you, you're too far gone for that But I can help you, even if just a little bit Now repeat after me One (one), day (day) [Verse] Feel so manic, I'm schizophrenic I don't see no end to this like George Shearing You big ol' bastards don't wanna pick no effort With Gio, Rodrigues Pedro, kill but fairly I'm m-my own therapist, no wonder I'm so bad at this My rule is swallow medicines, it's cruel, but don't care if it's For a good cause, I get too hard on myself with these Crude raw sentences, cool Gio but, uuh, your rap is shit One step forward, ten steps backwards Tap the tempo for a fucking anthem Lungs get scorched, reload my ammo My pen's a sword, these words the anvil I once was a caged animal Got brought up by lames eggin' on My dollars, paid havin' none It costed lots, but we ate and landed on Our feet, oh my God, G, you got stomped on, now watch me Take these weights off like Rock Lee, you ain't topped this I'm top three, was the bad apple from a lone tree Been treated like rags left in the laundry I'll scream it again, you heard me? "Call me a fag, I bet ya you want me" I feel like snapping on a bitch without warning Still if I'm clapped it's only with my verses Birth of a monster, it's birds for your coffins Weird, you're still walking, rigor and mortis I've figured these words are as simple as talking Put 'em together, these letters are stacking I've let 'em cadaver, now wave at the camera Whether I'm bad as the devil or Attila (Repeat aft-) Gonna let you finish in a minute, but they're speaking And they're tripping, only 'cause I'm timid 'Tell 'em turn the knife and stick it in it Like my dick in all their bitches I'm thinking of a trick and disappearing from the scene It's a wish for a wizard who's really just a kid Who keeps giving shit to every citizen And politician in every position I'm hoping I'm pissin' every single leech with these disses [Outro] I'm so fucked in the head that I'm so fucking ahead Ah fuck, where's my pills?
10.
My House 02:20
[Intro] Yeah My house [Verse 1] My house is broken Still reminisce on the times my friends were curious about the - Giant holes in the walls n' no wonder I was tryna - Get out from the projects, bought my momma groceries Rose from the cold, a flower in October That's the vibe locally, never inviting a homie or most the kids Always denied where I'm sposed to be, always the guy with lowest in- Come, but I guess in the end it paid off Crazy, economically stable is betting on jobs And as much as I'm respecting my pops I never want to look in my kid's eyes And tell 'em this is it, what a sick life [Hook] This is my house, you can keep out This is my house, you'll get kicked 'round This is my house with its ripped lounge This is my house, what it's been 'bout This is my house, you can re-route This is my house, where I speak foul This is my house, where I stick now This is my house, where I live now [Verse 2] Nobody knows me better than these walls That and the ghost of Nicole Simpson Dead in my home, on pills and some gin tho' Definitely chosen to risk it all, gringo I've always been into the Wi-fi, the white lights of the sci-fi Eighteen years later it's my rhymes, a slick teenager with a bright mind Hate teachers' papers so I bribed mine, no 9-5 or knife fights When you leave I pray that you lock the door, wave at you like ''bye bye'' And it's my right to re-try to re-write my revival A deep dive in the B-sides of a mean guy, a bit spiteful, a dick icon [Hook] This is my house, you can keep out This is my house, you'll get kicked 'round This is my house with its ripped lounge This is my house, what it's been 'bout This is my house, you can re-route This is my house, where I speak foul This is my house, where I stick now This is my house, where I live now [Verse 3] Do you wanna visit? Do you wanna see the fucking slittings on my wrist I've been keepin' really hidden, they so hideous I'm sensitive but thinking there's a bitch inside my system'll lead to censorship I better keep my mouth shut, that's how I'm used to Used to livin' in my house, blew tubes leaking on the ground Miss 'em when I'll move out Product of my environment, probably quite violent Poverty's like balance to offer me a guide right when Economy's liked silence and copped a lease high salary The common peeps' white knight that - that at most'll reach five thousands
11.
[Verse 1] The day that I stepped in, I was too bright They made me infected, always knew plight The weight of an action on disputes, fights The face of who's destined and who'll soon die Maybe I'm invested in a new light, a new path Fuck a news stand, if I told myself I could do that Like I do rap, stop tryna be a role model to a kid, they don't follow God, if you wanna meet me in a dark novel to insist on your own sorrow For my spot, gotta still see what I plot on the teachings of this whole bottle Fuck it, I fought for this cross on my name, I cock back and aim, caught on my knees I'm on Kaepernick's game, out of the love I copped all the pain I've been locked and sealed, I love the looks you people give The don'ts and did to shove this shit Right your throat til' ''noes'' and ''please'' and ''G forbid'' The morning comes for everyone except the dead So hope the sun is holding up or cover up A golden gun will check your bed [Verse 2] The written will of a dead artist, with a wrinkles filled pen on it And my single thrill with death was platonic I planned on it, a black coffin with blank coverage and then offer Some tracks from it, my wrapped conscience in wax, onyx And bad thoughts that I can't conquer They made me in his image, the savior complex Then prayed for its lineage to raise their profit But it's late for the kisses and lame ass sobbin' Bedtime stories for genocided populations Can't advise to top your faith in lands of violent occupations Headlines hurry on echoes, lying cooperation Jealous thriving corporations Can't recite their confirmations Can't provide a shot of patience Can't retire from conversations I need the morning to explain me the truth Reach the formula of a saint in the booth You blame it on me, I might blame it on you

[Verse 1] I see myself inside your eyes, baby That's not a compliment, I just saw ya crying lately Adjust your confidence, it could suffer migraines, ay We can conversate and leave a song of somethin' just playin' You could tell me about your ambitions, you could tell me about your moves I could tell you about my vision, I could tell you about my rules I could tell from all this speaking you got demons right on cue Come on, you can whisper, no one'll listen but this booth It's so apparent that somebody hurt you The figure of a parent that everybody worships People'd start a war just to peek inside his wardrobe But to me he's just an idiot, come on Lilith, make it work, love I could sweeten all those pills you keep on taking for the stress Pinky promise, I'll be honest, a snake bored of grass A name for the cast, an aid for the quest - I pray for the rest [Hook] We can keep a lie with love That you are mine and I am yours A feeble light will dye our core A fear of dyin' will strike our corpse A link will tighten, smite our force A simple liking, why divorce? We can keep a lie with love That you are mine and I am yours [Verse 2] You're not the type for a walk inside the garden More for the wine and stopped by the guards, they - Hoped that your thighs would've borrowed them a child's lake But a no is a right you shouldn't bother with the High Mate Bottle with a nice taste, it's down to how you see it You got up in my face and drowned in all its feelings Your toss up, as I say, is down to how you flipping And a gown would be a clowning image You fought for independence, a God and got his vengeance But along will come the entrance of the star the sun possesses I'm certain you wanna be part of my reign Serving as a queen as we start to debate Smirk right on your lips, a bit smart, I might say 'Cause they took ya honor still, you'll still robbed of a name So you want mine, don't ya? Well, I won't stop ya My former is like torment So for you, do I love it? [Hook] We can keep a lie with love That you are mine and I am yours A feeble light will dye our core A fear of dyin' will strike our corpse A link will tighten, smite our force A simple liking, why divorce? We can keep a lie with love That you are mine and I am yours [Verse 3] Did I ever tell you I never loved no one? And no, you're not the exception, just another one I can use at my discretion, when I'll muster want You humans are so desperate for some crumbs of love And I better go pick 'em just to feed 'em to pigeons One stone, two birds, a fiend and a demon You chose this road, appeal to my mission You brought me a goal, a feel for completion You yell this is gaslighting, never said you'd last, bite me Should have read the fine print I typed in my handwriting Your then signed deed, assigned it to L, like it? Well, you've sided with me for a sign in hell, right here Not gentle, not an angel anymore So simple, can't be sentimental with any girl And wherever you are, I hope you don't miss me And I know there's no way you could ever forgive me, Lilith

Self Aware 04:30
[Verse 1] You can keep ignorin' me, I'll always be around I'll always be your lover even tho' I wanna shout You act as a ghost over my shoulder now Your mask that you imposed, how will I call it out? We called and we laughed, now we cold and your breath - Of your own on my neck, but your soul unattached I'll cope with the fact that I hope for the past To come back in a moment or flash This feeling of emptiness lingers, ok These drinks in my belly will filter your face Miss seein' your friendly agenda, so they Listen to melodies I had to go play Cobain my brain for the art of music More pain in my dome, it's all abuses And it's all for music that Gio produces And it's all for muses for old exuberance And I feel like a loser 'Cause I keep doing songs for the girls I've been losing But they're soulless and stupid and tone deaf and juve- Nile and more or less exuding doubts Bye bye, last words that I've ever heard I'm high high, like a little bird and I'm all rebirthed Never perfect, out of girlfriends and more important I'm not endorsin' my poor focus Oh, poor, poor Gio I'll pour pour four 'Cause you're bore-bore-bored And your own whole show Got no co-host And your hope so low That you go record In those lone four walls And your portfolio Got shit photos And ripped old notes We speak to those Who miss control And sniff their blow Just to feel normal [Hook] I wanna know myself Shake my hand and see the sky Tell him it's been a ride In the end it's alright I wanna know myself Cry when he smiles at me We tried to see light And my, will you side with me? I wanna know myself Shake my hand and see the sky Tell him it's been a ride In the end it's alright I wanna know myself Cry when he smiles at me We tried to see light And my, will you side with me? [Verse 2] Self aware to the bone, I'll be dead in my home I've been stacking up stamina, stress and some clothes I've seen devils keep laughing and havin' a toast And tip tapping on toes on the mat by the door While I'm better than some, man, I won't lie I'm worse than my friends, and - oh, by the way guys Don't grow attached, mine's not a whole life So love while it last, when I'm gone don't cry But you won't, right? Don't tell me you fell and you won't fight Makes me mad I'm there while your throat tight Little Mary had a lamb and she named it Gio, my - God, does it matter if I'm locked in a cellar Doing songs with these letters and these keys? And the level that I reached is underwhelming to me So I read it and take it all back to the lab and I make up a beat And to Jade, I believe in those days we were little I got some straight As, but I played for the streets Never a criminal, painful to be and I pray for a seat At the top of the world for the dirt in the nails of my feet And the skrrt from the scale of my whip I'll never see bills get paid by CDs Evergreen skills underrated by me Pacing these pills with scraping my skin Faking being real to escape in my feels It's day-to-day haven, behaving and chill Grey to great Heaven, beheaded and killed So it's one day at a time and I could fade in your eyes And if you felt it then it happened, we connected our lives We go after the credits and the premise of lies Man we actually had it, happiness on our side [Hook] I wanna know myself Shake my hand and see the sky Tell him it's been a ride In the end it's alright I wanna know myself Cry when he smiles at me We tried to see light And my, will you side with me? I wanna know myself Shake my hand and see the sky Tell him it's been a ride In the end it's alright I wanna know myself Cry when he smiles at me We tried to see light And my, will you side with me?

[Verse 1] They told me I'd be nothing Lonely, pills popping You might feel like jumping and there's no one to stop it You're still cold, fuck it Strings hold puppets, so the noose will tighten And the news will talk it My pupils darken and it's futile to try When the moon has risen in my lucid eyes And the stars start to speak in their movement lies Another gruesome guide, need an excuse to write And I've been to hell and back, I've ringed the bell and ran Until the swelling in my legs when they sting and get on land Simple as the fact that I'm a circle with no end Going back to where I came from, right where I stand When I end up fightin' again another rhyme that I've said Another try for the cash, it's gettin' right in my head And my mind always felt so light and upset These stars are in silence on my lap [Hook] You will listen to my words You will live what I have wrote You will speak and I will walk You're so different from this world I'll always be here just to see you shine You'll see me die, I will just read what's in your mind It's just a little different, little kid don't cry It'll be alright [Verse 2] I know it's hard to deal with, trust me, I dealt with it endlessly You're smart enough to kill it, just weaponize your enemies And if they start with wittier shit, just amplify your laughing it's - A must, your right, your ownership of havin' no fucks to give ''But what if they mess with me?'' A jab to put 'em fast asleep Never be the first, but better be the last to leave Never get discouraged if your face gets red and spills Just know it's not a curse and the rest will feel And I've seen the gates of Heaven, I've seen debates and stabbings I split the fame and magic from the speech, the brain, the flashes Despicable, this kid is no genius, he's vain of any passion Displaying many lashings, disdain made me a bastard But I guess you're not, 'cause people want you How they want you and not for who you are But if you listen to the stars they'll tell you will never fall But for me they keepin' silent, which in time'll be so odd [Hook] You will listen to my words You will live what I have wrote You will speak and I will walk You're so different from this world I'll always be here just to see you shine You'll see me die, I will just read what's in your mind It's just a little different, little kid don't cry It'll be alright [Verse 3] I know you're still a baby, I know you miss when mom and dad Were used to kiss daily and you miss the stars You used to share your dreams to lately You feel too invasive, nobody even sees you You're invisible, fading A fallen angel, once love upon your name though Those stars won't light your way home Just write 'til the pain's gone, the days low and your face known You say so then do it, the stakes so stupid Just make your own ruling And I've seen a sky so blue, my wings recite the due My wisdom inside the fools, just wishing I could prove On my grudge against the Heavens That my blood will pass the message Of my fall, the last of lessons Revolves on aspirin tablets Betrayals and lettin' go, these days it's all I know I'm preparing you for when you meet 'em You'll be reeking of the rage you cultivate You'll keep on thinking somethings wired different in your soul The stars can keep on singing all their songs [Hook] You will listen to my words You will live what I have wrote You will speak and I will walk You're so different from this world I'll always be here just to see you shine You'll see me die, I will just read what's in your mind It's just a little different, little kid don't cry It'll be alright

Isaiah 14:12 03:39
[Verse 1] One day at a time, been waiting that shift like a wage on the side We're craving your shit, get that shades out my eyes Concealin' my thoughts, guess I'll make up my mind Can see from the blots, that's the stain of the nine Been reaping the benefits since I was barely a child Then mix it with ignorance, kids would compare me to God The fishes were missin' man, wished I had 'em in tons But government sucks, it got me in shock The blocks don't recover, they cover 'em up When a family starve, a wedding to charity jobs You sharin' the failings of every heart, that ebony sun Declare it a stab in the dark, replenish the madness Resell it, that's cash for the trauma Lots of press on my commas And fuck it on the edge I still made the cut, you ever face the mud Face to face, where you pay in blood? I seen amazing stakes And I raised 'em up and I love fighting if I end up losing I don't stop, fuck it and invent excuses I'm a god stuck in the mass confusion Like a gun burstin' at a mass on Tuesday [Refrain] I was always the last they choose, well I'm not God-sent or immune to - The pain and I say to you too, friend That shit only makes us human [Hook] Fallen, fallen, I fa-a-all Fallen, I've fallen and I fa-a-all [Verse 2] Don't ask me how, just ask me when Don't pass me down as flashy rap I'm spazzin' out on classic tracks You hangin' out with classy trash I'm on that last tier with the dirt and beggars The ''hands back'' tier, on the verge of peasant The "Man, I can't here" and never heard a blessing Bear the lack tier that never search a message In the years that went by always fear of a bad try Nightmares of a bad life, why tear up if you can't cry? Want a ear? you can have mine - literally I adhere to my head's sign, little me Would inherently hate me how incoherently I changed How the little things phase me And I fell from grace, man, I'm off that staple I can confidently say that I'm not the savior Not the hope for forgotten people, not the soul of rotten evil Not the cope for grotesque freak shows, not what you paid for The voice that speaks of myself, velcro face The fallen angel [Refrain] I was always the last they choose, well I'm not God-sent or immune to - The pain and I say to you too, friend That shit only makes us human [Hook] Fallen, fallen, I fa-a-all Fallen, I've fallen and I fa-a-all Fallen, fallen, I fa-a-all Fallen, I've fallen and I fa-a-all

[Verse 1] I rise from the dead, this shit is my curse I swear, no rivals or friends could fight or match My rhymes and raps, I thrive off that feel in a verse I cannot sleep no mo', got too much work to do So fill a pistol with lead, I grab on a pencil The voices keep telling me "Go, GioGio, it's what you were born to do" Telling you that since the day that I made Hello There Checking my past, went insane and met Claire Lending my share to the people that helped me Actually left me empty, it's unhealthy I care I know it's played, but I came from poverty I do hope fame could create commodity A coup, cocaine, overthrew this monarchy In a booth go pray they don't shoot m-mon amies Buh, Buh, grew in a place where it's dark, dark Glued with the fakes in a car park They call you their dawg, but it's more like bark, bark They go at your core like Stark's heart They gloat they're the goat, but nah, nah Send me a shot, you'll regret it as soon as the gun clogs [Interlude] Nah man, come on, don't fuck with me [Verse 2] They fuck with my jam, I throw bucks in the air To any of these rappers with necklaces Stackin' their hats 'til they land on a cap that fits Like I called crap a ship, I could hit half a lick Packing my weaponry and leave your bodies bare Buddy, I'm back, close your window I'm into your coffin, yeah, just to lend you a memo I'll laugh at them hoes, cops and squares I could chill in the scenery, like a shill is into me I could plead for some sympathy, but a beast is what I'm meant to be Fucking this shit, I've been infinite 'Merican dream, I've been livin' it Brought me some streams, call me river it's - Worrisome, these counterfigures have never been figurin' me Enterin' a loophole like Tiffany, end me a shooter, I'm tempted to be You wanna attend a beat, another attempt at me? A trend, it seems, I think a ''beat'' I'll give, in the literal sense, I mean But I'm done with these enemies Dummies and manic fits Money and lacking peace Love me or rap it bitch Call it my rapid skills Copy and let it build Tall me with record deals [Verse 3] And I could tell you about the days I had that beef with my mama "Fuck you, bitch" I scream louder "Why did I have a child?" you answer But that shit had me somber I know dad hates you and he owes you some dollars We're in need of bills while we peel at each other And my brother was always in the picture 'Cause I'm calmer, but now he calls you a bitch So we bitchin' for hours, I feel like My sins are gonna fill up the shower I'm gonna come out of it filthier than power So all I have now is a pad and a pen And I write about my shack of regrets, alright From the times I had a crush for Claire and my ex, oh my Who would have ever known I'd say it in rhymes, alright I know I'm skinny and weak, but I came for the fight, ok That one time, I didn't know the name of the guy, ha I wanna say thank you 'cause you gave me this light While I was cryin' whisperin' ''one day at a time'', oh

Lazarus 03:34
[Intro] Yeah [Verse] I fell, but now I guess it's the time to get up Wish me dead, then read well what I titled the track, huh I like when I reach balance, but I don't like it as much as the landing And if I have mean friends, give me whatever you got It's one day at a what, wait, again? It seems like yesterday - excuse the pun I was having just a hell of a time And if I wasn't made for Heaven then Elvis decides Oh, and hell, I gotta thank you for mine It was a blessing in hindsight, like glasses for my pride I got too set on my I's, huh But it seems when I actually try to, I just end up in a tight spot I left a mark like an eye dot Tell (*****) that I severed that bond If she wanna be my friend she'll have to be better than throwing threats at a wall Am I getting stressed? Not at all I'm just happy I'm getting content for the next installment of my fucking half-assed job I couldn't sell what I'm not, then I'd be a laughing stock Tell 'em in a song, then send 'em my diss as the cherry on top Think you can mess me up? You couldn't press me The only thing that's close to it is I'm a bomb and you just set me off Go get your refund, motherfucker, I ain't dead Just my veins bled, blank stare, I barely had me sent I don't blame many men, but I pray for 'em 'Cause trust me, I know that not one of 'em angels in Heaven does And you say I never care enough, you don't get it I ain't never gave a fuck You couldn't say the same, you scared or some? Got you lames in Satan's clutch I'm the best 'cause I said so, what? Just argue with me, all it does is augment me I love discussing especially when it involves brawling imme- Diately, I'll pinch salt in Gandhi's iris I'll sing a song to Marlee Matlin And admittedly, I'm not as hard as y'all would picture me But if you thought I'd let someone off that easily I realized I was photogenic when I cut 'em out the frame Better change your millimeters, your best shot ain't hitting me Yeah, I'm back like I'm Lazarus, suicide attempt got me attention But I never wanted to impress no one or asked for their stamp of a-pproval Mostly gotten truthfully only right after I had 'em tensing up Misery loves company, so bitches love Giovanni But thinking of something, that thing just got to me Since this time it's not my fault, you divas must feel lonely without me So Misery, start comforting 'em I merely stopped worrying about what other people might see in me or start noticing It's not that y'all suck, I'm just a chauvinist They think they're dope, I show 'em this My needles are connected by a thread on a sewing kit My songs have made me no promo So ironic how Carefree's my logo Yeah, let's do it again, it's one day at a time And Lucifer's back after some said that he died

I Don't Die 04:12
[Verse 1] No matter how much shit I've gotten into I never killed no one or cocked a pistol It's not an admission that I'm soft or wish for Wisdom in times violence is not so sinful I've been giving no fucks for what's the minimum I don't even have some if I felt like giving 'em If you wanna kill me, you better get in line My ego's so big I cannot die But it doesn't bother me I've got so much shit I'm done with modesty I'm constantly under policies, what an oddity All that think offin' me is a walk in the park, it's not 'Til I'm ending my run, the mic is hanged up And it's time for me to say goodbye and let go And I'll let y'all win, the debt is sealed 'Til I come back with a track as big, all you can gather is [Hook] I don't die (What?)

I'll fucking laugh at you Get dragged in a battle when you ain't half of me If it's anatomy, that's defeat Grab on the mic and show you you're not a synonym for menacing Think you'll settle for second place I string words together to attract some hate Doesn't matter how many props I get They'll always wait for me to botch a step If they want it, they got it next 'Til I'm at the albums fail May they never forget that I gave 'em hell I gave 'em every little thing they expect to sell in every record, track My track record helps And to any of these rappers, come at me I've been tempted to let loose if any of you motherfuckers would get that (I don't die) Then really I don't need to do anything [Hook] I don't die (What?)

Philophobia 02:37
[Verse 1] I never love, I'm afraid It's a common mistake I'm drawn to the same comments They keep vomiting feelings, pop-pop, stop it I see nothing but neat bodies and meaningless talking I figure it's not for me, think it's ridiculous with bulking Egos and nihilism, fuck we living if lives different? It's something I said? I've been such a pessimist Endulging the past, I've seen a thousand narcissist loving themselves But never others, if my heart is nothing but pulsing arteries But sometimes, I think that my worst side is the best The way I'm wired got me trained right, but often I think that I'll die alone [Hook] If you love me, there's nothing there No no, no no, no no, no no If you love me, there's nothing there No no, no no, no no, no no [Verse 2] It's not that I don't like nobody It's not worth it in my eyes to love 'em Well, how about (what?) Ain't ringing a bell, I was down on luck I've been shifty as hell, but never drunk on love If you ain't counting lust, and ever since I've been dodging touch Can't love someone with a logic trust I'm such a hypocrite, stuck in different type of feelings and thinking that Dionysus must be in us, crumbs of intrigue, a subpoena If people can't love then so be it 'Cause often being alone is so freeing When you leave can you close me up? With a key, that's our secret [Hook] If you love me, there's nothing there No no, no no, no no, no no If you love me, there's nothing there No no, no no, no no, no no [Verse 3] I wanna be shaken, wanna feel frail 'til the wind can break me I wanna be human, see you in my illusions 'Til I can't discern the truth and I wanna be yours, I wanna be forced by a simple impulse And live on beliefs that are meagre but easier than stinking of the reek of remorse, huh I wanna feel halved, wanna meet something that feels what I felt I wanna be moven, be new with each new movement 'Til you'll consume my moon and I'm lost in my own seeking, I'm starting to believe If people can't love then so be it But being my own is no privilege [Hook] If you love me, there's nothing there No no, no no, no no, no no If you love me, there's nothing there No no, no no, no no, no no

Leftovers 02:40
[Hook] "Don't love nobody else", she said to me I think she's got what's left of me But I gave it to her "Don't love nobody else", she said to me I think she's got what's left of me But I gave it to her [Verse 1] And everything I did was to keep us together But distance must've twisted our wishlist forever Your winnings over slit wrists are risky, but Jesus did it make just tear up to get pics of that, I- Was little and you used it against me to get an Ego as big as your bruises and scratches, you practi- Cally forced me to stay confused, but there in my head Pretend that you cared to screw with it, yeah Then it took me a whole year just to cool with the idea That if you could've, you would've, plus you too were too real No matter how much you got called abusive, it was clear To me, you were doing it so ruthlessly, fear Was what I felt usually dear And if you told me you loved me I would've believed, it was new to my ears So I went and fell through, you were beautifully keyed up Prolly 'cause I was in your room viewable scared [Hook] "Don't love nobody else", she said to me I think she's got what's left of me But I gave it to her "Don't love nobody else", she said to me I think she's got what's left of me But I gave it to her [Verse 2] And everything I did was to keep us together, a genius You knew exactly which weakness to head for I'm impressed, not many could bring me to hate 'em Especially if friends and especially since then When you sent me them messages and got that shit back How it felt to get a taste of your medicine injected? You made me get angrier, then the feeling is switched back In our singing, we were hitting the same ass inflection And it dawned on me, you were the culprit of my messes You taught a kid what stupid and depressed mean Suddenly, I was using your mood swings and mean tactics They rubbed off on me, you did and, still, that's it We're even seeing how my plan was to keep us together In the end things, my friendships'll be the victims of that, but We'll never speak again and it's deep in our damn hearts But look at what happened between us has left us [Hook] "Don't love nobody else", she said to me I think she's got what's left of me But I gave it to her "Don't love nobody else", she said to me I think she's got what's left of me But I gave it to her

Hiatus 03:49
[Intro] I need a break from everything before I break my vertebraes I love this shit, I can't just walk away from it La la, la la la la, la la [Verse 1] The rap was a nice excuse to go public With a lot of shit I got bottled, but man, hone-stly I feel like my whole promise was thrown out the windows As soon that fucking intro I wrote got chosen to blow on it And fuck, it has worked for me, but these verses are no-goes And I became so worried of 'em when I mention a person And hope they don't hear it, or maybe do 'Cause more than my image I'm only holding my dick Before I get shown the door up there But I'm never biting my tongue, I couldn't lie if I wanted So if I tell you me and (*****) have each other's privates on contact I can't imagine the amount of trouble and hoes I'm in You do what I do like I told Simon, but more importantly I'd like 'em to know I just don't write a song that I don't like Just to get woahs by some clowns who don't like me And whether you think ever I'll let up, go on hiatus The answer is in my middle finger which is now raising [Hook] I need a break from everything before I break my vertebraes I'm never gonna hear the end of every little thing I said I think the more I try to compromise, the fucking less I get It's time I packed my things and left before this thing leaves me a mess But I cannot lie, I love this shit I can't just walk away from it I gave it all you all, no take backs, bitch This is the only thing I know that I may just need [Verse 2] So if you still want it, you'll still get it I'm sicker than doing open mics in one degree weather I'm wondering if rap was more than what I thought it could lead me to And I should stop before I get the short end of the stick's cracked up Everything I felt is in my pad, still better than venting to whoever I can 'Til that shit bring ene-mies or gets weapo-nized against me Or half the shit I stress about just passes past me And it's common I'm in drama and get comments But recently I feel like there's no reason to reason with me reasonably How can you get caught up when you're the one speaking on me? 'Cause I've been writing schemes on everybody that's scheming on me And to be more fair to you, I've been saying I don't care you do But don't push it, 'cause when push comes to shove I'm not afraid to undo any mental growth that I've done And show you pussies how much stuff I can get to know about y'all [Hook] I need a break from everything before I break my vertebraes I'm never gonna hear the end of every little thing I said I think the more I try to compromise, the fucking less I get It's time I packed my things and left before this thing leaves me a mess But I cannot lie, I love this shit I can't just walk away from it I gave it all you all, no take backs, bitch This is the only thing I know that I may just need [Verse 3] Show me what you got, just blow it out the water I hope to god it's worth it when I word it in a chorus I bet you hope I put your fucking name in a song So you can call me unstable and justify blame into faults I'm getting tired of these lyrics Having to fight everytime there's a rhyme on my sibilings Everytime I try to shift my personal life into a verse I get survivor's guilt While every single of these guys tries to pry in my business Who I fuck with and who I fucked already, you dumb? You think all this stuff is what'll bust my friendships? Or how about how I struggle with stuff, I bet it's A real distraction from the fact your couple's ending I'm just dying to retire at this point, I quit I done did enough shit in one lifetime to keep Putting myself in such sit-uations, my god, why don't I just dip? And shit, it's been real nice, I won't say sike - I did [Hook] I need a break from everything before I break my vertebraes I'm never gonna hear the end of every little thing I said I think the more I try to compromise, the fucking less I get It's time I packed my things and left before this thing leaves me a mess But I cannot lie, I love this shit I can't just walk away from it I gave it all you all, no take backs, bitch This is the only thing I know that I may just need

The Letter 04:10
[Intro] *Yawn* Yeah Mh hm My mothe-, my mother was scared- [Verse 1] My mother was scared of the rap I grew up on listening to I doubt her, but damn, her head was the excuse I done flipped it into The vinyls and scratch, right, it's again using a song as fixture or glue Like it's gonna fish me a tune, huh And I know in my head right, with chances of heart That my momma gave that light to an asshole and not A doctor, medic or god-be-damned a celebrity star Just a cocky rebel, shock developed on relatives snobs So clutch your balls, add a bunch of light insults Some dumber rhymes, no consequences Congrats, you got my songs But to make it crunchy, test a little spice on top Like making fun of dying motherfuckers But respect the dead with just a rhyme or post Hypocritical ignorant piece of - hey In the ending tho', wish they will limit to piss on your grave I can still see Gio sit in the kitchen and pray Insult to injury tho', as I secretly bitch on the plate [Hook] I'm sorry momma, I never meant to be your spawn And I know you'd love the drama if you'd read this song All I ever wanted from you was to greet your son And now I grew into a problem for my evil thoughts So I wrote you a letter in hopes you could shred it My voice is the evidence of poison I inherited Every mess that I've done, always yelling you're done And if my dad is a scum it's all thanks to my mom [Verse 2] If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say nothing My mom was basically the opposite, a basin of gossip, hate And in case of a crossing, her nails like facing the crossing Of Wolverine and a cheetah, no wonder she'd see me in tears, huh Prolly wishes the Grim Reaper could show me the door While she switches her mean features for Tony Awards Notorious whore - shh, throw in the towel Don't talk to her in tongues or talk to her at all, but I recognize that half the time that someone ask me nice, I'm just an ass And that's asinine, but then again, that other half the time It lets me pass a guy that's much of an ass as I So thank you mom, very kind Your angry son - then I sign I don't know why people got my back always, they latch on me "Gio, your last song's amazing, the one where you say something About Satan or something, uhh, and hating your mo- I'll save you the comments, but I play it like everyday It's crazy, I love it" [Hook] I'm sorry momma, I never meant to be your spawn And I know you'd love the drama if you'd read this song All I ever wanted from you was to greet your son And now I grew into a problem for my evil thoughts So I wrote you a letter in hopes you could shred it My voice is the evidence of poison I inherited Every mess that I've done, always yelling you're done And if my dad is a scum it's all thanks to my mom [Verse 3] To be honest with you, I wouldn't even call it abuse But every thought it produced made me uncomfortable, rude And it's not as common as you think or a product of views To feel your mama's a nuke, straight coming at you Pray mama's anew, day tomorrow's a loop And in face of all of this music, I'd chalk it to a fluke To say if you dropped this noon, your grave stop was mute No embrace off from you, I'd still come at your fu- But don't take it for granted, you were the one who raised me up To be a pain in the ass when everyone would say it's fun That I was basically dumb, socially inept from the start I'll show 'em the best of my love - choking a brat in the mud So whenever you need me, know I'm actually far Don't pose you a question you know the answer to, Ma Don't consult me or message, there's no patching this up I just wrote you a letter, dear Mary, your son [Hook] I'm sorry momma, I never meant to be your spawn And I know you'd love the drama if you'd read this song All I ever wanted from you was to greet your son And now I grew into a problem for my evil thoughts So I wrote you a letter in hopes you could shred it My voice is the evidence of poison I inherited Every mess that I've done, always yelling you're done And if my dad is a scum it's all thanks to my mom

Lightbringer 04:18
[Intro] Yeah [Verse 1] Have you ever felt so apathetic with everything? Like time is the interval between the breaths that you're inhaling in You don't care about caring and your passion's irrelevant You're just waiting to die, so you take matters in your hands, I did I've always been the best out the bunch They expect me to function without a step out the margin I've got a heck of a hunchback from carrying it all And man, I swear, sometimes I wish that I could just walk away from it all But I can't and every friendship I got into is a rock in shoes I could never get rid of, it's just written in every song And it seems like at the end I got a feeling it's just me that's sad at all So let it be, fuck 'em all, I'm- I'm never gonna jog along, you can chalk me up to the devil I got enough of this stress, I'm gonna bust out the kettle I got a plan 'cause, man, I'm done with balancing acts And I forget, last thing that needs to be said before I go, it's [Hook] Remember me forever, the light in the dark Just know that I'm looking down on you in the skies by the sun And if you ever feel down, I want you smiling and stop 'Cause I'll always be there in your mind and your hearts Remember me forever, the light in the dark Just know that I'm looking down on you in the skies by the sun And if you ever feel down, I want you smiling and stop 'Cause I'll always be there in your mind and your hearts [Verse 2] I keep seein' em The cuts on my arm and they're quite bleeding Envisionin' my father's face as our eyes meet My mother screaming, erratic breathing I tremble thinking the atmosphere's below freezing I'm shaking, their tone scared There ain't this much to say besides the fact that they all care I'm hazy, stray thoughts scarce Same old stance even with my head goin' in straight code red I pace my own breaths, lay down on the couch as I try to sleep My mind is racing, my tears dry and my sighs are weak I'd like to speak, but ain't no right thing that could find my lips Aside the signs I'm ill, yeah, just stand by me when my time is ceased Remember me forever, I'll live in your thoughts I believe in you, believe in my songs I'll leave 'em as the feeling of dawn But the minute that the minutes go on, it's morning I open my eyelids, the windows are shut and [Hook] Remember me forever, the light in the dark Just know that I'm looking down on you in the skies by the sun And if you ever feel down, I want you smiling and stop 'Cause I'll always be there in your mind and your hearts Remember me forever, the light in the dark Just know that I'm looking down on you in the skies by the sun And if you ever feel down, I want you smiling and stop 'Cause I'll always be there in your mind and your hearts [Verse 3] I wake up as always, ain't nothing changed but the stares of the public I play it dumb, there ain't no need to aggravate on the subject What's done is done and I can't take away what's spreading about me What I can do is go and straighten out somethin' I gave everything to everyone I never asked for nothing in return except for averages And this is for every fucking kid who spend their days inside their bedroom just Wishing they were dead and they feel trapped, they have no parents, let 'em just Remember me forever, the light in the dark Whatever the weather, whenever and ever Whether you're fucked, or you just need someone to tell 'em they better get lost In any rap until I'm done and I'm gone, in every song If I died on that day, I'da never gotten to say to you all Fuck you all, but I love you the same For any karma I gained, the hate I got And then the fall off with this mock-up of Satan I'll never stop, in case I'll call on a favor [Hook] Just remember me forever, the light in the dark Just know that I'm looking down on you in the skies by the sun And if you ever feel down, I want you smiling and stop 'Cause I'll always be there in your mind and your hearts Remember me forever, the light in the dark Just know that I'm looking down on you in the skies by the sun And if you ever feel down, I want you smiling and stop 'Cause I'll always be there in your mind and your hearts

Goodbye 02:02
[Verse] When I was a kid I shut my heart And I suffered much I just figured no one could touch me If there's none to hurt So I began to suck it up, basically get my thoughts undone See how it takes before I'd just stop to love Nineteen years later, I write my life in a paper And it feels that line has been drawn where I meet my likings and pain, I- Would like to inspire to be greater, at this rate I'll die without shame But also without enticing a change that could define a new era, yeah I dream but forget to wake up, sleep 'til the night is daytime Think 'til my head is burning, feel 'til my chest is yearning I've seen the hurting bloom, I've seen a flower die I don't think what's certain's true, I keep a doubter's mind Last thing for anyone that needs to hear it - in any lyric Love yourself and not your mirrors Because in all my living I've been scared of feeling dissonant In all my existence I've been seeking for a reason 'Cause I mean it when I say- [Bridge] When I was a kid I shut my heart (To you) And I suffered much And I suffered much When I was a kid I shut my heart And I suffered much [Outro] (It's goodbye) Until the next time that I see you (It's goodbye) Yeah (It's goodbye) Mhmhmh (It's goodbye) Until next time
