Well I was living kind of bitter, and the city it found me
Picked me back up, I saw what was around me
People living life with everything that they want
But they're so damn unsatisfied
I don't want that in life
I don't want to lead that in life
All I need's a little rock n' roll
All I need's a little heart n' soul
I'm so happy to be living free
I broke the chains of negativity
Flip it back around? It's a possibility
But most of all, most of all I need to believe
That most of all I'm happy that it's you who's lovin' me
Well now I'm sitting kinda pretty in the place you put me
Head is on straight, and I love where you took me
I'm not worried about the things I got
& I feel so, so gratified
This is all I need
I got all I need
All I need's a little rock n' roll
All I need's a little heart n' soul
I'm so happy to be living free
I broke the chains of negativity
Flip it back around? It's a possibility
But most of all, most of all I need to believe
That most of all I'm happy that it's you who's lovin' me

Found In Your Company

It's just another Saturday night
An I'm dressed better than I feel
An with locked eyes, put drinks up in the air
An like kids on a play ground
There's a comfort we've found
An my restless mind, don't mind if that's all we share
This liquor isn't helping me
Forget that my bed is empty
An I know I'll stay awake tonight
But as long as I can be
Found in your company
It'll all be alright
We're slowly chasing this sunrise
As i'm walking you back home
You grab my arm and I can't help but smile
I was lonely today
But now that's going away
So I don't mind if we've still got another mile
This liquor isn't helping me
Forget that my bed is empty
An I know I'll stay awake tonight
But as long as I can be
Found in your company
It'll all be alright
No longer lost in this world being found in your company
This liquor isn't helping me
Forget that my bed is empty
An I know I'll stay awake tonight
But as long as I can be
Found in your company
It'll all be alright

See films I'm now replacing
You with who the guy is chasing
An I'm beginning to see why parts of a chick flick make you cry
But they'll never get quite right
The way I feel for you tonight
Cause darlin Hollywood ain't got nothin on you and I
Cause
Unlike a love story
I don't find ours corny
you'd be my favorite character no doubt
Unlike a chick flick movie
Your lines are scripted for me
Starting to hear those cheesy songs when we make out
In a world that's full of sequels
Rewrites and remakes
Movie's seem to have less and less to reveal
But girl what we got is original
An ill do all that it takes
To show its this off-screen love, that's actually real
See films I'm now replacing
You with who the guy is chasing
An I'm beginning to see why parts of ia chick flick make you cry
But they'll never get quite right
The way I feel for you tonight
Cause darlin Hollywood ain't got nothin on you and I
Cause,
Unlike a love story
I don't find ours corny
With the narrator in my head screamin "she's the one"
Unlike a chick flick movie
Your lines are scripted for me
In a story board that I know has just begun
In a world that's full of sequels
Rewrites and remakes
Movie's have less and less to reveal
But girl what we got is original
An ill do all that it takes
To show its this off-screen love, that's actually real
See films I'm now replacing
You with who the guy is chasing
An I'm beginning to see why parts of a chick flick make you cry
But they'll never get quite right
The way I feel for you tonight
Cause darlin Hollywood ain't got nothin on you and I
"Alright kid!
I'm looking for a cold, tall glass of creativity so could you give me something original please?
You have 90 seconds of my time
Yeah... 90!
The brightest lights, only shine for those who can take the heat!"
Quicker than lights camera action
I felt this attraction
To this extra I saw from a far
To me she had shined
In lighting that ain't designed
An now she's now my leading costar
Cause I know that I can trust her
Inside this blockbuster
As she whispers "there's no end in sight"
An in fairy tale laughter
Well live happily ever after
End of story, we don't need that spotlight
We don't need your spotlight
In a world that's full of sequels
Rewrites and remakes
Movie's have less and less to reveal
But girl what we got is original
Yeah baby we the ones in control
An we can ride off into the la-da-da da
With a musical break while the credits roll...

Give your all to me
Bring me everything you've got
Your marching army stands so tall but I am a god, have you forgot
Late night, nothings going on
Somehow you're still on the phone
With every word I curse I worship you my perfect de ja vu.
But I know you.
But I care, (or do I?)
that all your lonely lonely nights are spent cause I'm not there.
I may be out if my mind
but girl you're out of your head
you drive me out of my mind
cause you give me the the best heavy meds.
You can't bring me down today cause I'm lifted lifted
ain't no brotha have a say
cause I'm lifted lifted.
I ascend from sleep alone
Your smell still confining me
The wicked wars are waging tirelessly, the sandman ignites relief
But I hate you.
But I care, (or do I?)
That every sleepless night is worth it because I am never there
I know I'm out of my mind
But girl you're out of your brain
You bring me down to my knees
An you're driving me insane
You can't bring me down today cause I'm lifted lifted
ain't no brotha have a say
cause I'm lifted lifted.
You say your friends they like that beat?
And you say my song's on fleek? (what's that mean?!)
You say it makes them wanna freak? (uh-ow)
Stacking money by the end of the week (thats right)
Party at my house about to throw down
Girl's on the floor thats a hoe-down
Shows in front of a whole crowd
Oh man I make mama so proud
Can I get bumped?
Can I get sprung?
Can I get another shot of that rum?
Can I get a margarita on the rock, rocks
Or else this girl's gonna make me "wooo"
You cant bring me down (down)
You cant bring me down (I aint ever coming down)
You cant bring me down (because I'm wayyyy up)
You can't bring me down (cause I'm lifted)
You can't bring me down today cause I'm lifted lifted
ain't no brotha have a say
cause I'm lifted, lifted

I know you broke my heart
But I still can see that beauty in your face
I know you broke my heart
But there's something' we had,
I can't seem to replace
An tonight I saw you,
An you look so fucking fine in that black dress
Yeah, Yeah you,
Just like always, got my heart beating out my chest
Someone call a doctor
This prescription ain't enough
Cause before the night is over,
I'm gonna relapse on her love, love, love
Ohh, oh, oo, o, ohh yeah
And it's gonna bring me all the way back down
I know you broke my heart
But I still have dreams that we could run away
So know you broke my heart
Then why do I still wake up wondering if you're okay
An tonight I saw you
An that smile it was just like I remember
Yeah, yeah, yeah,Yeah you,
Looking at me with those eyes like I'm more than a memory
Someone call a doctor
This prescription ain't enough
Cause before the night is over,
I'm gonna relapse on her love, love, love
Ohh, oh, oo, o, ohh yeah
And it's gonna bring me all the way back down

It's the silence that kills me,
But it's hope that what fills me
with a "you'll be alright in the end"
There are nights where I need you,
And nights where I see through
a loving that now feels pretend
I'm laying in a dream catchers nightmare
Id be asleep if she had it her way
When my demons interfere
my ears begin to hear
My late night instrumental start to play
My thoughts will just write down chicken scratch
Sometimes doubt will drip from my eye
Cause it can be chilling,
Being lost in this world,
And yet, it is humbling, to know I'm alive
An tho I try not to believe these voices
There what make up this sleep time symphony
I've come to peace with my own mind
Cause when I'm inside it I'll find,
That these thoughts weren't made to be lonely
I'm laying in a dream catchers nightmare
Id be asleep if she had it her way
When my demons interfere
my ears begin to hear
My late night instrumental start to play
I'll toss and turn like a cant sleep without you,
I stay awake like as if you'll return
I'm too daydream engaged
To enjoy the right now
With my ambition that can't help but burn
An tho I try not to believe these voices
There what make up this sleep time symphony
I've come to peace with my mind
Cause when inside it I'll find,
That these thoughts weren't made to be lonely
I'm laying in a dream catchers nightmare
Id be asleep if she had it her way
When my demons interfere
my ears begin to hear
My late night instrumental start to play

What do you know, I came across ya.
You were tryna leave, said im glad I caught ya,
Said you had a day and you need to think I said
Say you'll stay, I'll buy you a drink said
She told me I am not the girl that you can string along and
You are not the boy that's gonna take me home
Said I'll be damned if I can't try, don't you leave me out to dry,
A simple conversation isn't wrong
Cause girl I see through your smoke and mirrors, you just want to be loved
Let me make my intentions clearer because, because, because
You bring out the magic in me
What do I say, he came up to me
Now he's trying to play, this game so loosely
Though I'm liking the way, he's speaking so truly
And I can't look away, Cause he's looking right through me
I said you wont have any luck, with a one-night stand
and I'm looking for a gentlemen to take my hand
So if you got something to say, then by me a glass of chardonnay
Or else this conversation wont be long
Cause boy I see through your smoke and mirrors
You need somebody to love
So let me make my answer clearer because, because, because
You bring out the magic in me
Because I'm done with the smoke and mirrors
I need somebody to love
And baby now I see things clearer because, because, because
You bring out the magic in me

This Guitar

I know I've been roaming
Pulling up my roots
Been so many places that there's holes in my shoes
But then I think about the journey
And everything I am
& I know that I'll go far, with this guitar
I think that I've been burning
To be a better man
Wandering this road with a guitar in my hand
So I write about the good times
And I sing about the blues
& through it all I know I'll go far, with this guitar
I know I've been roaming
Pulling up my roots
Been so many places that there's holes in my shoes
But then I think about the journey
And everything I am
& I know that I'll go far, with this guitar
I know I've been smiling
Cause the future is here
I run across the stage, with a million people here
Just to see me, and I'm reaching
But then I realize that I'm dreaming
But when I wake up
I am more than just okay
My thoughts will never surrender to the rain
I know I've been roaming
Pulling up my roots
Been so many places that there's holes in my shoes
But then I think about the journey
And everything I am
& I know that I'll go far, with this guitar

I'll decorate your time
With a beat and a rhyme
In hopes that you'll all learn my name
Because when I'm on this record
I can do
I can do
I can do anything
We took a portrait of pop
And then stepped out the frame
With a mindset monsoons
Couldn't put out this flame
An we became, blended senses
So much room left to grow
You can stop sitting still now cause we already know
You want of sing along, but hesitate to let go
So how jams will it take us to show
That creativity is everything,
From the freaking get-go
I'll decorate your time
With a beat and a rhyme
In the hopes that you'll all learn my name
Because when I'm on this record
I can create
I can create anything
Let me hear you sing it back to me!
