Set Me Free

So you feel like a bird in a cage wasted away and going insane
Cause these walls are caving in
But you tried to play it safe in this risky game lost it all in a Vegas spade
So what you gonna do now
Come on and set me free
I’m gonna give you what you need
Jump around and lets scream
So come on out and let’s play
Free your mind of any fears
Let’s set this world on fire
With this rocknroll cheer
But the road is rough and very rocky indeed
Just hold on to what you love and we will part the seas
Come on and set me free
I’m gonna give you what you need
Jump around and lets scream
So you must know these are the times of our lives
Never wanna wake up and live just to die
Come on and set me free
I’m gonna give you what you need
Jump around and lets scream
And live our fantasies
Come on and set me free
I’m gonna give you what you need
Jump around and lets scream
And live our fantasies

Sunset

Woke up to the sunset the day is almost gone
And time has never been a friend of mine
It's far too cold outside and the wind our only friend
Whispering thoughts and making me numb again
To the world till I can wake up next to you my girl
To pick me up when I'm weary
Of being so far away everyday
I see you across the room but I knew it was too soon
To share those thoughts climbing inside
At least I had you here to talk and walk to the bus just for it to take you away
Unsure if you're ever coming back in my
World, till I can wake up next to you my girl
To pick me up when I'm weary
Of being so far away everyday

Let Go (Feat. Philly G)

Lights shining down heating up this town
Round up your friends I think it’s time to play pretend
Howl at the moon sweating to the groove
Turning it up to 10 lets hope this night never ends
This mic is my muse got nothing else to lose
Been around this town singing the blues
Cause my hearts been broken down, and feeling bruised
But baby it’s you I can’t refuse
Let your light glow into me
So they can’t hold us down, anymore
Got my crew, banging at the door, banging at the door saying
Let Go, Let go, Let go, and live free
Let go, let go, let go, and follow me
I’m holding on like they can go for the weak
Deceptecon be exploding on the beat
I’m flexing on them let them know I’m gonna speak
Cause the kids been slept on and now we folding up the sheets
Nike checks on Derrick Rose on my feet
Suit pressed on wrist frozen off the heat
Better clean your section when I’m exposing all the sheep
And I’m an X man cause the flow is so mystique
But not no ex con still got a weapon in my profession I don’t know about defeat
For my protection steady progression that breeds perfection now I overload the streets
New connection of love and affection that’ll leave a hex on anyone who don’t compete
Without no crest on nobody flow is dope as me
You better put some respect on and capitalize the G you know it’s Philly

New Day

In the starlight we gaze upon this open road
Gotta break free from this cage and chase this dream
So shine on cause you can't stray away from this funky good feeling
Follow your heart and your soul follow it and don't let go
So it’s never too late to look up and open that door just find the key
Let's hit the road travel the seas light it up till we feel weak at our knees
Now we're getting loose on that Grey Goose
Turn up the juke and let me see how you jive
So feel alive and fly free say goodbye to any misery
Cause you gotta feel your body move forget the day and let's just groove
So its never too late to look up and open that door just find the key

Here we stand on the edge of these city streets
Trying to get by when all you feel is defeat
But this world is yours just listen to those you love
And let them light the way these angels from above
Feeling so crazy
Now you got me got me gone astray
Love you baby messing with my mind now I’m going crosstown
Driving down fast this windy one way road
There’s light up ahead even though it’s misty and cold
Then there she stands gleaming just like the sun
Now I’m a believer and it’s only just begun
Feeling so crazy
Now you got me got me gone astray
Love you baby messing with my mind now I’m going crosstown GO!
Now I get driving to the sunset along this lonesome highway road
The past behind me clouded away as I light up my smoke
My mind’s been racing and it’s got me feeling numb
But just crosstown I can have me some fun
Feeling so crazy
Now you got me got me gone astray
Love you baby messing with my mind now I’m going crosstown
Cause I love you baby, but you always seem to mess around
Don’t you ever never tell me what to do now I’m headed crosstown

Hard Times Coming Down

Long time since I caught myself breathing
Say it’s a waste but I refuse
Singing many songs of freedom
Take my hand let me show you
Rainy days feed the garden
But God knows that the sun will too
Whispering hills are screaming for wisdom
Climbing so deep but oh so sweet
Don’t remember me I’m fading away to another day
But don’t forget me I can’t lose you again
Hard Times Coming Down Now
But sunny days aren’t far ahead
Hard times coming down now
But don’t you let me hide
Take a road trip with my best friends
New york city down south to New Orleans
Pull up to the beach dig my toes into the sand
Yeah and find out what this life really means
Don’t remember me I’m fading away to another day
But don’t forget me I can’t lose you again
Hard Times Coming Down Now
But sunny days aren’t far ahead
Hard times coming down now
But don’t you let me hide
Hard Times Coming Down Now
But sunny days aren’t far ahead
Hard times coming down now
But don’t you let me hide
Don’t you let me hide
Don’t you let me hide

Wait For You
02:32
|

|
Tell me something good
And bring me to the light
And I hope that we can still wander away
Take a simple breath and breathe it in so slowly
Cause this life can come and go away and in heaven I’ll wait
For you for you oh I’ll wait for you
Now I hear your voice whispering through the trees
I held onto my faith even though it was weak
So now here I stand
Looking for my angel
I’ll stand right here and wait for you for you oh I’ll wait for you
For you for you oh I’ll wait for you
