So Cold

[Hook]
Oh the world's so cold
Baby, you warmed me up
You showed me how to love
Now I'm better
Oh the world's so cold
Baby, I'm not enough
I don't know how to love
I'll be better
[Verse 1]
Before she up and left, my girl, she told me that I got
A lot of problems, and I need to fix em
Man I really need, to quit, playing the victim
Stop, blaming the system
But lately I just can't, hop out the rhythm
Happiness ain't coming back, until I solve them
She was all pieces that I lacked, but now I lost them
Find it kinda ironic, how did I lose something
That I never had, looking at my notepad
Like I didn't write that
Stop pushing away, the thoughts, inside your head
Don't lead yourself astray, from the path that you set
This is, for your own good, I have no malintent
You're saying you're alone, but surrounded by your friends
You gotta figure out, if you wanna let me in
For now, I'm keeping to myself
So maybe, I'm ready, for you again
I never ever left you
You'll always be, my lover and a best friend
[Chorus]
Oh the world's so cold
Baby, you warmed me up
You showed me how to love
Now I'm better
Oh the world's so cold
Baby, I'm not enough
I don't know how to love
I'll be better
[Verse 2]
You refuse to admit, all the issues you got
All the red lights, but not letting go, at the stop
You're so focused on that drive, all your doors are unlocked
You're not living in this life, 'cause your soul is on lock
Avoiding all your issues, when you're zooming past the block
Speeding twenty, at the fifty, never stopping for the cops
Now your belt, isn't on, and your busy in your thoughts
Never, watching for the road, jerk the wheel, only God knows
Keep yourself onto that path, you got a bright future
You're gonna hit your big break you say later, I say sooner
You hated that in ninth grade, everybody saw you as a loser
Trust me, it's about to get better
Take it to basket and learn, to be a shooter
I'm waiting for the day, we'll be together again
I'm keeping to myself, we'll be meeting in the end
I'll be rooting for your music, signed your number one fan
[Chorus]
Oh the world's so cold
Baby, you warmed me up
You showed me how to love
Now I'm better
Oh the world's so cold
Baby, I'm not enough
I don't know how to love
I'll be better

Hoodie Season
02:52

[Chorus]
Going through the letters that you sent me, wrote down
I've been running tracks, from the memories, in that town
You've been hiding, ghosting, I've been stacking my sins
I've been finding, reasons, you been fighting demons
Guess we're kinda lucky that it's hoodie season
Easier to hide the scars, when no one, sees them
[Verse 1]
Laying in my room, got them cigarettes, no ashtray
Forgot, the taste, of nicotine, something that you hate
You know I'd do any for you, I won't hesitate
Told me, just to cut all the smoking, I was like okay
I replaced, a drug, with you, instead
Girl, your voice, silenced the thoughts, inside, my head
I was high, off your love, but now, I'm dead
Cigarette, slowly, burning from, the end
[Bridge]
Don't go, no, don't go, no
Don't go, no, don't go, no
Don't go, no, don't go, no
Don't go, no, don't go, no
[Chorus]
Going through the letters that you sent me, wrote down
I've been running tracks, from the memories, in that town
You've been hiding, ghosting, I've been stacking my sins
I've been finding, reasons, you been fighting demons
Guess we're kinda lucky that it's hoodie season
Easier to hide the scars, when no one, sees them
[Verse 2]
I don't know, how to feel no more
What is real, no more
Now you've closed the door
Sticks and stones
They make break my bones
But the hurt you give
It don't ever go
It never goes

Six Thousand Miles

[Intro]
It's been a while since we've talked
The only way, I talk to you know
Is through my music
Things have been changing
[Verse 1]
Reminiscing back to the days, where we would take the train
Earbuds in our ears, listening to your favourite bands
The seats would be taken, so we'd be standing by the doors
Holding hands, never had a direction, it was a simple plan
Remember looking in your eyes, seeing me, deep inside
A kid who was lost, someone rejected, denied
The feeling of dejection broken, shattered, sense of pride
A broken, shattered, soul, saw it all inside her smile
We had a lot of anger, bottled up inside
To find a way to cope, we became each other's lights
When you were by my side, the world was passing slow
Loving you was innocent, but I guess it's time to grow
[Chorus]
Oh you're too far away
Baby someday I'll change
I'll be back soon some way
I'll be with you someday
Six thousand miles apart
Darling don't drop my heart
Oh don't you run too far
Six thousand miles apart
[Verse 2]
Remember holding you for the last time, the airport
Handed me a scrapbook, of poetry and precious memories
I was tryna act tough, so I fought back the tears
That is something I regret, wish I never let you go
Watching you walk, I could feel you were crying
I could taste my blood, from the lips I was biting
Clutching to our book, I was silently screaming
Babygirl don't leave, I don't wanna stop believing
The anger, deep inside of me, fueled up again
Couldn't really cope, ended losing a friend
Said words I regret, and now I'm in my room alone
I was immature and I guess it's time to grow
[Chorus]
Oh you're too far away
Baby some day I'll change
I'll be back soon some way
I'll be with you someday
Six thousand miles apart
Darling don't drop my heart
Oh don't you run too far
Six thousand miles apart
[Verse 3]
I've been tryna change for the better, so maybe one day I can look
Into your eyes again, so baby, please just wait, a little longer
I promise I'll be stronger, I promise I am working
Life is like a lesson, and I guess, that I'm still learning
If we're really meant to be, guess we'll cross our paths again
Guess we'll have to wait and see, guess I'll have to trust the plan
You know, that I'm stubborn, I'll need to learn to be patient
I'm someone who expects the most, I should lower expectations
I put my all into you, a melody I poured my soul into
We've been through hell and back, happiness then hell again
Not just lovers, we were friends, in the end, guess I'm glad
You were real and not just for show
[Chorus]
Oh you're too far away
Baby some day I'll change
I'll be back soon some way
I'll be with you someday
Six thousand miles apart
Darling don't drop my heart
Oh don't you run too far
Six thousand miles apart

Understand Me

[Verse 1]
Walk into the room, people asking whatchu doing
I say I've been in the studio, busy with the music
I've been going crazy, yeah I think I'm gonna lose it
Say that I should sleep, don't be acting stupid
I've been working, if you haven't heard it
Then you must be deaf, where's the surgeon
Oh I killed him with a beat, I wasn't certain
We was pretty close, but he's a burden
Never stopped it with the questions
Not to mention, he said I should deal with my emotions
What a notion, I gotta learn how to love my reflection
The depression, gotta find a way to end the tension
When I'm writing, the fact I can't achieve perfection
Got me fueling up aggression, cut the section
Start dissecting, open up my brain, you and me are not the same
If you weren't with me, when I needed your help
My name, should, never leave your mouth
I don't wanna hear a sound
Monsters underneath my bed, they've been breaking out
Been spending so much time, busy underground
Been stuck inside the lines, but we've been crawling out
Used to be a joke, but we're slowly rising now
[Hook]
Funny how they think, they understand me
I don't even know, I don't even know my own self
Funny how they hate me, I'm just being real
Saying what I feel, I'm just being real
[Verse 2]
We've been through this last week, I ain't gonna get sleep
All the demons in my room, they just never let me
Why you gotta test me, you don't understand me
Only time you hit my line, is to say my flow is nasty
Man I love this, being honest, we've been real from the start
We've been on it, we're committed making art, we are poets
Keep a note of it, you should know it, since the eighth grade
We were motivated, now we're dedicated, every painting
That we painted, turning back, like yeah we made it
Waiting for the day we make it
Imagined selling tickets, laughing back at the critics
Smiling back at who left us, who never saw our vision
I made some bad decisions, I prolly will, still make em
I don't feel hurt the same, that is just for the living
I've been dead for a minute, yeah we gave hell, a visit
I didn't like the service, I left, no early notice
[Hook]
Funny how they think, they understand me
I don't even know, I don't even know my own self
Funny how they hate me, I'm just being real
Saying what I feel, I'm just being real

Don't Mind This
03:14

[Verse 1]
Honestly, I don't know what to think
I dunno who is real, I dunno who is fake
I dunno if I'm asleep, I dunno if I'm awake
I still think I'm not enough, but they saying that I'm great
How can I just separate my mind from reality
They saying that I'm sick, but they don't got a remedy
What's my fatal flaw, every person is a tragedy
When I say my truth, suddenly they all get mad at me
You saying that you always keep it real right yeah
You crying in your feels in the nights right yeah
Then what's up with the music, with you fronting acting tough
Saying, you 'gon make it, but you don't believe yourself
How you gonna say that you a real one, huh Red
Put a timer on your life, but you spend it in bed
Then you whine about the time, saying one more minute
Whatchu doing, oh you're talking to the voices in your head again
Should I introduce myself, hi, my name's Red
And I'm here to keep it real, so I tell you how I feel
Then I never deal, with the problems, that I write
I mean why, would I right, not like they will bite
Nah, you wanna know, what I call real
Let me tell you something, that I know they will feel
I'm gonna tell them all your secrets, soon it'll be revealed
Did you all know, that Red is gonna- shut up
I thought, that I told you, that this, head is mine
Get out of my room, man now you crossed the line
I thought we made a deal, you were gonna leave my mind
Come on now man, you know, I'm never far behind
You can fool the rest, but can't lie to yourself
We were always friends, since the day you were twelve
You boxed yourself away, like you, thinking you'll be safe
You built yourself a prison, threw the keys, to your cell
Screaming and you're crying, 'cause you're suffering alone
People try to help, but they never fully know
The neighbours hear us talk, three AMs, in the night
Like they all say, this is prolly just a phase right
Do you hear yourself, you sound like a kid
What's gonna come next, show me wrists, that you slit
See if I tried to kill you, then you prolly would resist
So if you wanna die, then why do you live
Answer that now, oh you're mad now, gonna snap now
They just facts now, man relax now, man does this flow
Bring back anything though, lost your Juliet
Whatchu gonna do Romeo
Maybe you should get a backbone, yeah
Do what, you say you gonna do, yeah
Instead, you're busy locked up in your room, yeah
Then you whine about being alone, yeah
We've talked about this million times before
I stay breathing on this Earth, for the kids who feel ignored
I tried to open up, in the end it didn't work
I ended on floor, with a body feeling sore
I tried to reach for help, but the people closed their doors
I know the empty feeling, of me giving, till there's nothing left to take
I'm writing down this music, so that I can motivate
All the kids that relate, who ain't sure, if they'll see another day
