NSNE:
I was just a kid and I know that you were younger
But your wisdom kept me stable kept my head from going under
I was laughing with you late and we were hiding from our parents
Taking trips out to the pier would appear we were a pair
And I knew
We were perfect, not romantic it was worth it
Just a friendship till the end until I grew up started working
Ignore
All the texts
The rapport
Escaped us next
Now you’re bored
And so perplexed
I was yours
can’t take the stress I guess
Homesick for love I don’t belong
So lost and I was all alone
Thank you for all that you have done
Our trip as just begun
Too lost to find the words to say
How much you’ve saved me everyday
I need your healing remedy
Thank you for everything
Brotha Newz:
Wasn’t born to be a heart breaker
But my nature is I’m selfish
Yeah my pops taught me “treat ‘em well”
But the jerk in me is helpless
We fell quick when I cheated you out of my time
Rewind thoughts like the memories could alter design
But blind can’t lead the blind
And we was both naive
You saw blossoms in my future when I was only a seed
You gave water with the hope of shedding all my driest leaves
But your nourishment would only sprout my insecurities
Never wanted to compete men are only taught to lead
We bring darkness to our flowers cutting roots that never bleed
When its darkest they don’t flower but we still extract they seeds
Bringing life into the matter when what matters can’t be seen
And true matter can’t be seen so what’s left for me to glean
Let’s just pick up from this moment cause the chorus gotta sing
And I am

CRZY:
Thank you for this life that’s first and foremost
Only utmost gratification
For taking me out on vacation
I got comfy on that plane
If a little bored, young crane
Spill emotion on that page
Grown up introspective
Might just be a bit obsessive
That’s the way I’m raised (sorry)
Shouts to my middle school grade
Shouts to ’06 Lil Wayne
Y’all inspired this new tape
We’ve been working 48
Shout to girl names that start with “A”
Shout to all birds that still migrate
Shouts to all my cell membranes
Swear y’all get me through the day
We want to thank you
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you from all of us to you
We’re thankful for the things you do
