I've always wanted to make music; but now I've finally pushed myself to release something publicly. Please listen, and lyrics are posted beneath each video. I'm still trying to find my sound and always looking for collaborations especially more towards the rock/punk/metal genres. Never give up on your dreams. Music or not. I just recently started to chase mine and it feels amazing. I wish everyone would take this advice and be able to feel this purposeful.

Mask
Mask Year: 2019 Album: Raw Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
Lyrics: Verse 1: I swear I'm gonna change the game Throw my money from the stage Back to the fans who brought me here today I never needed fortune, and I won't appreciate the fame You'll find it makes it hard to concentrate When you pave yourself a lane Reveal your life and hope that someone will appreciate The time it took to demonstrate Emotion written on the page I navigate through my mind to find what I dare to say Headphones on making my way through the day Staring down at the ground when I walk Don't try to talk to me Chorus: Mask my pain like blue tape over paint Maybe I'm insane Mentally deteriorating Smoking life away Soul beginning to decay Waiting at the devil's gate He's always coming out to play It's one thing that stays the same surrounded by constant change Where what's given to you is guaranteed to be taken away And what's bought can always be pawned to get the bills paid My brain is in my skull but my mind is still astray I scribble lyrics on the page to keep my sanity contained Verse 2: I write with the heat of passion Fuck the wealth If you're thinking cash can solve your problems You must be mental Check your health Never fold in fear of odds Do your best with what you're dealt Keeping confidence in every thought Don't look for help You can do this all yourself Annoying how the optimistic love to preach it But life is truly what you make it Don't overthink or complicate it Pay attention and respect it You could ruin your only chance before it's given You can't achieve greatness through excuses Chorus: Mask my pain like blue tape over paint Maybe I'm insane Mentally deteriorating Smoking life away Soul beginning to decay Waiting at the devil's gate He's always coming out to play It's one thing that stays the same surrounded by constant change Where what's given to you is guaranteed to be taken away And what's bought can always be pawned to get the bills paid My brain is in my skull but my mind is still astray I scribble lyrics on the page to keep my sanity contained Verse 3: I'm always jotting cuz I'm never talking People like to say I look like Jay, but I go through life like silent bob Intoxicating, vision hazy, I'm nodding off Writing what I'm thinking while my body rots Smoking like it's sacred I swear I'll never stop How many shots will it take to escape these thoughts My wounds will never heal My blood's too thin to clot Adversity I've fought is what inspires me to reach the top a dying flame but misery is gasoline fueling me to chase my dreams Chorus: Mask my pain like blue tape over paint Maybe I'm insane Mentally deteriorating Smoking life away Soul beginning to decay Waiting at the devil's gate He's always coming out to play It's one thing that stays the same surrounded by constant change Where what's given to you is guaranteed to be taken away And what's bought can always be pawned to get the bills paid My brain is in my skull but my mind is still astray I scribble lyrics on the page to keep my sanity contained Recorded on: -Focusrite iTrack Studio -Free DAW *This is a non-profit project.

Somewhere Else
Somewhere Else Year: 2019 Album: Raw Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
Lyrics: Verse 1: Lately I've been living lazy like I'm on vacation Whiskey sipping bong ripping almost 24/7 But I haven't been achieving shit worth celebrating Barely making it to work the way my choices have me sleeping Snoozing my alarms so I can spend a few more minutes dreaming Skipping so much school, shit, I think they're dropping me again Oh well, it really wasn't working Wasting time and energy I should be using making music Not excuses Verse 2: We have greater visions, similar to interstellar missions Traveling long distance just to see a few more stages Spreading inspiration through the speaker systems Selling dreams instead of tickets I'm not in it for the riches I just want them all to listen Maybe find some solace through relation Like I did When I became addicted to this music as a kid Headphones on noise canceling, that's all I needed Never wanted substances to cope with how I'm feeling Verse 3: Finished with the useless temporary medication Over the counter, under the table there's no escaping Mortal life's like a time bomb ticking it's intimidating Stressing while I spend my time asleep or faded Watch my future fleeting Feeling fatal Undeniable, I'm my own worst obstacle Comparable to hell Normal life's unbearable Feeling meaningless to live it, we struggle for the minimal Has me sinking to the bottom of another bottle Do it all again tomorrow Recorded on: -Focusrite iTrack Studio -Free DAW *This is a non-profit project.* Original Beat: Somewhere Else by WAV Original Lyrics: Written and Recorded by C-Me

Substance
Substance Year: 2019 Album: Raw Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
Lyrics: Intro: The devil hosting something special Tempting me,on the edge of sanity I'm just trying to sneak a peak But everyday, feeling myself creeping Closer to the fallen Like I'm in a cemetery digging No lack of invitation I'm craving something different From the prison they call living Seeking out a new feeling To replace the broken in me Someone stop me Sending my lifeless body floating Down the river flowing I feel that with the current Is where my soul is going Verse 1: I was always a little lost, something a little off Stray down the path no one else will travel on Struggle to find my purpose Or motivation to carry on Let this song be my epiphany How does life sneak up so gradually I don’t want any company Burning my brain out of dopamine This world's not making any sense to me Think your on top but really sinking slowly It's called a peak for a reason Eventually you fall back down into the valley Life's about how much we can take And how quickly we can heal Struggle to scrape by 'til we break If every human felt this way There'd be no one left to live a day Earth still turning all the same Better without us anyway I just wanna end it Done with this petty fuck shit Getting so drunk I can barely function Life seems over estimated Truthfully its killing me I'm directing this production It's my final destination Chorus I place vices in my lyrics Fuck your false appearance Write addictions in my music Saving me from my abusing I put thoughts into my verses Never mumble, I do them justice My minds greatest remedy A melody with proper substance Verse 2: Cliffhanging I'm death gripping From the ledge that I've created Long come down It's a long time coming Pondering the length of my remission Indecision Will I ever reach the end When will I peel myself up off this flooded floor On this stranded boat Lost in the waves No sign of shore Struggling to stand like ligaments are torn Secretly smoking sinking further in this hole Is it so strange to wanna feel alone The emptiness is haunting How does it feel so fucking calming I'm anticipating my own ending I'm hearing death That bitch is calling I'm not responding but I can't keep stalling Body barely present Mind still absent Get one single stressful thought And my conscious will attack it Selfish with emotion so I mask it When she walked out the door She also left me manic My life looking like it has no meaning 'Til I break myself apart and build a better me Someone lend me a hand Through these last few feet I'm digging straight up, pushing daises Taking back control of my mentality Chorus I place vices in my lyrics Fuck your false appearance Write addictions in my music Saving me from my abusing I put thoughts into my verses Never mumble, I do them justice My minds greatest remedy A melody with proper substance Verse 3: No longer living fast forward Time to stop and press record Gather my thoughts in a single sitting And finally get my first single written Post it online to show relation in what I'm feeling I'm crawling out of hell now No matter how hard I know my soul will have the strength To carry me from here on out Starting now I will be uncatchable Invincible, practically Invisible to these demons reaching out Trying to grab a hold of me Crucial as the crucible They’ll torture me Bleed me out, leave nothing left of me So I ain't slowing down They chasing after me But I think I finally have a lead Yeah I finally think I'm free *This is a non-profit project.

About it
About it Year: 2019 Album: Raw Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
Lyrics: Chorus: It's my life, no one's gonna tell me how to write about it Not holding any details back, I don't care what you think about it Never have a lot of money, never takes me long to count it Maybe overdose or take a plummet, that's how I feel about it It's my time, no one's gonna hold me back from it I'm gonna stay on the attack, there's nothing you can do about it I'm gonna get my money, take the rest and spread it To those who work the hardest but never seem to earn it Fuck this system, maybe I'll just burn it Verse 1: I need to get out of my head, out of this bed This is the beginning, so why does it feel like the end I'm constantly changing content 'till I am content But in reality, I'm doing this for me Attempting to build up my own confidence I need to quit stressing and have some fun with this Cuz music's my creative outlet, will many ever hear this? Or like the sound of it? I doubt it But I gotta keep it up cuz to this music I'm an addict No ifs, ands or buts about it Can barely hold my anger back, but couldn't write without it Chorus: It's my life, no one's gonna tell me how to write about it Not holding any details back, I don't care what you think about it Never have a lot of money, never takes me long to count it Maybe overdose or take a plummet, that's how I feel about it It's my time, no one's gonna hold me back from it I'm gonna stay on the attack, there's nothing you can do about it I'm gonna get my money, take the rest and spread it To those who work the hardest but never seem to earn it Fuck this system, maybe I'll just burn it Verse 2: This is that type of emotion That makes you wanna go out in public and start commotion Fuck a motive, is that a good explanation for ya? Is there something you're needing more of? I'm showing up, I need to tell my story Its been more than long enough I can relate to a little something in everybody Feeling alone or stuck Writing real material leaves 'em cold Their mouths are frozen shut Everyone is shaking, like another quake just cut the coast of Cali Pay attention to the meaning, watch it leave 'em fiendin' Chorus: It's my life, no one's gonna tell me how to write about it Not holding any details back, I don't care what you think about it Never have a lot of money, never takes me long to count it Maybe overdose or take a plummet, that's how I feel about it It's my time, no one's gonna hold me back from it I'm gonna stay on the attack, there's nothing you can do about it I'm gonna get my money, take the rest and spread it To those who work the hardest but never seem to earn it Fuck this system, maybe I'll just burn it Guitar Solo: I don't know what you could be thinking of me now Are you listening? Verse 3: Cut my lips up like I'm Joker I'm tired of the questioning I may have my misadventures But I always surface safely in the end Put down the bottle, and grab the pen Reminiscing on my struggling To paint the picture perfect on where I've been But never again Outro: It's my life, no one's gonna tell me how to write about it Not holding any details back, I don't care what you think about it Maybe overdose or take a plummet, that's how I feel about it *This is a non-profit project.

Run Away
Run Away Year: 2019 Album: Raw Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
Lyrics: Chorus: Will I ever stop running away When will I stop running, stop running Stop running away Will I ever stop running, stop running When will I stop running away Verse 1: When will I stop acting afraid Stuck procrastinating on my dreams as they're fading away Remorse over what I could have created without the haze My devotion for inebriation is draining my desire I'm constantly closing doors but in desperate need of closure I've learned to lose my emotions in order to to keep my composure I'm evolving based on my surroundings as I grow older Can't possibly get me confused with the others I scribble my struggle in songs So you can get to know me better I'm making changes in my life Because I know I wont live forever But doing this without you just doesn't seem to matter Chorus: Will I ever stop running away When will I stop running, stop running Stop running away Will I ever stop running, stop running When will I stop running away Verse 2: Now I'm thinking why did I ever let you go I guess we both needed time alone Had to learn to be happy on our own Instead when you left I went down a bad road I guess I just needed something extra to make me feel whole I tried cutting contact Ended up hurting us both I thought conversation would be devastation to my growth Even though the path I chose led me down a deeper hole Found my passion in music and it's pulling me out now If I can keep my focus And stop sleeping time away I may just be able to build beauty from my pain I remember my brother and wonder what he would say Stop hiding away It's time for you to take the stage Chorus: Will I ever stop running away When will I stop running, stop running Stop running away Will I ever stop running, stop running When will I stop running away Verse 3: You always believed I could do this music thing Even though we knew you wouldn't be around today We tried to form a band with Joey back in Highland Springs Back when we were just kids Always hanging out playing games Not worried about the future or the people we became But times got harder on me coincidentally When you left this place Consumed by stress and anxiety I've been in constant pain So how do I follow a passion to fortune and fame When I'm feeling like putting a bullet inside of my brain Unfortunately for me to express how I'm feeling I am forced to think Forced to face realizations I've tried so hard to keep tucked away I've always tried to live my life with no regrets And I know if I work hard Maybe break a sweat I could soon become one of the best By lyrically presenting the heart that's beating inside of my chest Reminiscing on memories truthfully to share with the rest In hopes someday I can change things And not simply exist in this mess Chorus: Will I ever stop running away When will I stop running, stop running Stop running away Will I ever stop running, stop running When will I stop running away Jun 10, 2019 *This is a non-profit project.

Drained ft. Bird
Drained ft. Bird Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
Ryini Beats: Smoke and Fire Drained ft. Bird First Verse: Telling me we're meant to be one sec' Then leaving me the next I should've guessed Too good for truth again but you had me convinced Our search was over and we were it the perfect fit A golden ticket to a life of bliss Who'd knew we'd trip up and let it slip So I pour myself a glass and take a sip Grab a dab, the torch is lit Split a spirit and mix a spliff Can't afford to think what if I'm moving forward Toward a future in which you won't exist you'll only wish you did When you reminisce I was finally feeling alright on my own then you showed and shoved me back down low Played my emotions like Nintendo, left me froze Gave up four months down the road Ironically saying you needed time alone Had me thinking surely, you're the one but no Not perfection just placebo Back on my own, its cool with me tho Back on my bullshit, on the d-low Losing control over my cerebral Losing at life, I need the cheat codes Patient with time, 'cause these wounds heal slow Keeping in mind, I'm good on my own I never needed you Chorus: How, can I continue to live, if I gave my heart away, I'm drained, I'm drained How, can I continue to love, if I gave my soul away, I'm drained, I'm drained Second Verse: so I do confess I thought that you were it And I was blessed but you were just a work in progress One I cannot fix These memories are stuck in my head But trust me I burned the rest You used to be all over my room and filling my booth but I left no evidence burned the lies you wrote until they charred 2am in my apartment courtyard squirt the isopropyl and smoked a dart watch the smoke rise to the stars we used to think this world was are's until reality ripped apart leaving us hopeless, back at the start Chorus: How, can I continue to live, if I gave my heart away, I'm drained, I'm drained How, can I continue to love, if I gave my soul away, I'm drained, I'm drained Verse 3: I gave you, everything that I could you weren't worth it, but its fine I'm good If i could take my feelings back I would I'm busy rebuilding, the pieces that you took No we can't meet up again we're done gave too many chances, I moved on your timing sucks, you took too long so like our love I'm gone and not coming back, I'm beyond that not texting back, 'cause you want that never needed you, and I meant that deleted you from my contacts I miss us writing songs but I cant take you back, I have to stay strong just wanted you to come back home but now that time has come and gone the best decisions the hardest to make like the strongest feelings are hardest to break why are the finest achievements created with vices we hate taking drugs to feel connected or separate from a world we don't fit in, its hard to relate to anyone but I know there's someone out there feeling the same take my hand and together we'll find a way no passing of judgement, no need to change a thing we're the ones who have it right in our brains they're the ones who are making mistakes they stay playing the stakes treat heart breaks like head-aches, it's so insane so I decide to stray away from the fake Chorus: How, can I continue to live, if I gave my heart away, I'm drained, I'm drained So tell me how...

Homies
Homies Year: 2019 Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
First Verse: try to go against the master plan, then look around and see where your family is at, prescribed medication in your hand, can still lead to judgment and separation, fake as plastic, people panic, I've seen it happen, it’s fact not fiction, true loyalty can only be proven under tension, it can be depressing to see who ends up leaving, those you were thinking were capable of handling, the way you're feeling recently, think you've found release, just to fall on your face when you reach Chorus: that's the reason I talk to this page more than anybody, but luckily the realest family won't be found on the same tree, forever thankful for my homies, wherever this takes me, I'm taking ya'll with me, I know that when I stumble, I won't fall with y'all behind me and trust me, the feeling's mutual, if and when you need me I'll be there battling gravity, helping ya get back to where you need to be, always got my back when I'm weak, so know I'll always be here in your time of need, forever thankful for my homies Verse 2: flicking the last bit of my final cigarette, out the window, staring at the sunset, I know I quit before but this week I just needed it, walked to Kum and Go inebriated, 4 in the morning, craving that black pack of spirits, so I can relax a bit, even though I'm broke as shit and struggling, electric about to come out and turn off my shit without a payment, but I like the vibes in my apartment with the candles lit, so I'll get through it Chorus: that's the reason I talk to this page more than anybody, but luckily the realest family won't be found on the same tree, forever thankful for my homies, wherever this takes me, I'm taking ya'll with me, I know that when I stumble, I won't fall with y'all behind me and trust me, the feeling's mutual, if and when you need me I'll be there battling gravity, helping ya get back to where you need to be, always got my back when I'm weak, so know I'll always be here in your time of need, forever thankful for my homies Verse 3: lost my girl last week, used to talk about the future and starting a family, now we hardly even speak, how can something as beautiful as our love be so damaging, I don't wanna think, come home every night with another bundle of airplane bottles to drink, but I ain't flying, I just sink, feeling lower than the concrete beneath your feet, with every argument that we repeat, I may have my addictions but I never accept defeat, and I admit, it'sits a hard record to keep, having everybody telling me my first EP is heat, but for some reason it'sits not enough for me, still low and feeling lonely like no one gets me, while I stay distant from every human being , like a ship stranded sinking into the sea, luckily I always see a few hands reaching, as far as necessary to save me that’s why I'm forever thankful for my homies, yeah forever thankful for my homies *This is a non-profit project.
