Neon, Vacant Boardwalk, Pavement Summer's finally giving up Salt air, Sunset Chasing something Driving, Wondering Where she's gone Headlights on As I'm speeding down the road I never turned Tell myself If I'm fast enough I'll finally get to her Jennie, come back You're the one I needed I still, feel you, in my arms And now, I know better There's no going back at all I was sleeping and I've finally woken up Dark sunglasses Bleach blonde, tan skin I still see it, the way she smiled On beach days she'd swim I didn't know it but I was blinded by her light Her waved had crashed And passed me by Jennie, come back You're the one I needed I still, feel you, in my arms And now I know better There's no going back at all I was sleeping and I've finally woken up Love is the ocean You either jump in or you don't She was the current You're either with her or your not And I'll never catch up Because I waited too long Time is a straight line And life always goes on Jennie, come back You're the one I needed I still, feel you, in my arms And now I know better There's no going back at all I was sleeping and I've finally woken up Jennie come back You're the one I needed I still feel you in my arms And now I know better There's no going back at all I was sleeping and I've finally woken up Jennie come back You're the one I needed I still feel you in my arms And now I know better There's no going back at all I was sleeping and I've finally woken up Jennie come back You're the one I needed

Cut me loose, my parachute won't let me fly I'll survive cause we've got love Ohhhh Think of me when your world seems to fall apart Under the weight of a heavy heart It's so material, criminal What we put up on a pedestal Need a spark to start a fire Don't be afraid of a chance for a miracle Scare it away being cynical Step into open skies, close your eyes Jump into something you don't recognize Just reach your arms out wide Cut me loose, my parachute won't let me fly I'll survive cause we've got love Summer days will fade away and pass us by But we'll survive cause we've got love Baby what we've got, we've got love And it's all we've got, we've got love Baby what we've got, we've got love Ohhhh I'll be your voice when the whispers get too loud Your home base and the king that keeps you crowned Your breath when you're choking on your words Your sex your right turn When you're ready to start, lean on my heart baby Close your eyes just reach your arms out wide Cut me loose, my parachute won't let me fly I'll survive cause we've got love Summer days will fade away and pass us by But we'll survive cause we've got love Baby what we've got, we've got love And it's all we've got, we've got love Baby what we've got, we've got love Ohhhh Don't need a tomb with a view on the West Side Just wanna wake up at your side Cause when you know it, you know it In the blink of a moment It's like I'm, it's like I'm It's like I'm falling for the first time Cut me loose, my parachute won't let me fly I'll survive cause we've got love Summer days will fade away and pass us by But we'll survive cause we've got love Baby what we've got, we've got love And it's all we've got, we've got love Baby what we've got, we've got love Ohhhh

"Vipassana is a science of mind and matter How the mind is influencing the body And later, how the body is influencing the mind" Yesterday? Forget it Tomorrow is? Nada The present is right here, through the breath, watch it Atheist Jesus piece, hangin' on a cross We sit and discuss God on lawn chairs About how we got here What it is, what it isn't, shit Fate versus faith, scrimmaging with coincidence Leave out the marketing, hold up on the business end Focus on the genuine, and everything else, you can shed the skin I was a couple moves away from being dead In that ER overdosing, eyes bleeding red I fell in love, made an album, got a buzz Lost it all, sobered up, and guess what? Now we meet again And now I'm back, finally just laughin' Expectations are resentments waiting to happen Studying the dharma, karma, vipassana practice Bahá'u'lláh, Buddha, God, to the mountaintop and I'm traveling Learning, yes, reflecting on what matters People, impermanence, lack of attachments It's space and time, a couple of man-made distractions The measure of a spirit that no human can ever capture Church, this booth is my Vatican I don't control life, but I can control how I react to it Student of the breath, brick beats and balancin' Desire versus truth until I finally find happiness I was put here to do something before I'm lying in that casket I'd be lying on the beat if I said I didn't know what that is The world's a stage and we play a character, I found him It took me 20-something years and a bunch of shitty soundchecks I'm not gonna be content 'til I find gratitude Regardless of my sales or the record deals they're handing you If the next generation takes our legacy and samples you We'll have a bunch of mp3s and misled kids to pass 'em to I use my veins to create the color I paint from Delve into self 'til my heart becomes my paint brush I told my mama I'm not stoppin' 'til my name's up Thinking those comments on that blog is gonna save us Searchin' for everything but God to validate you Get insecure and then we start blaming the haters Used to look to women to fill a part of me that was vacant Truth, the only thing that I ever used in moderation So I stare into this paper instead of sitting at a cubicle Take all the ugly shit inside and try to make it beautiful Use the cement from rock bottom and make it musical So the people can relate to where I've been Where I'm going, what I've seen, what I've heard From the guts, fuck the glory Just a person on a porch putting it all into recording Many in my past and many that came before me I just keep walkin' my path and blessed to share my story

Could we take this life a little slower than we used to Than we used to Are my eyes More like story tellers of what's past Are my eyes The triggers of a story that won't last Feels in the path of a past storm Emotions of the past got me transformed You're back in the game but summer is over Warn me when the water is getting warmer Could we take this life a little slower than we used to Than we used to Please don't open This old folder Files unspoken So much colder Chills in my back give me fevers Those pictures of the past, is it over? Placed me in a frame, summer is colder Warn me when your skin is getting warmer Can we live this life a little closer like we used to Than we used to Can you open This new folder Files unwritten Let me write them
