Promise 02:34
When I pre package thoughts Where I live no gunshots You feel safe at the bus stop Or at least that’s what you bought And then something shatters What is mind over matter Where do high rises rise Evolution in disguise Give me hope Give me some for me to hold on I been battling inner demons for so long I was sure that by now I’d be Bye, gone I stand strong more relevant than ever Dead Wrong Hold my hand & never let go I promise that I'll never let go Have u ever been so scared of death that you forgot to live I know a couple times for me But those are things that I forgive Gentle with myself but it’s hard sometimes I hate it By it I mean me, anticipated Self loathing never be outdated But it's unbecoming, of what? The person I’ve awaited Cause I’ve laid the stomping grounds for me to rise above And sometimes I deceive myself try not to give a fuck Im honest with you mostly but with myself i'm a liar I play along and rarely ask what does my heart desire what does my heart desire what does my heart desire what does my heart desire what does my heart desire When I pre package thoughts Where I live no gunshots You feel safe at the bus stop Or at least that’s what you bought And then something shatters What is mind over matter Where do high rises rise Evolution in disguise

Happiest 03:13
Happiest - Lyrics Emma Beko Verse 1 Can I take another hit Another sip without me judging myself I couldn’t handle it One time I couldn’t walk, but I could talk Imagine that and it's a fact I got a devil on my shoulder but sometimes it's in my head Tried to cut it off it bled Yeah of course it caused me pain It Is me and I am it Considered more than a friend And I admit I like it dark but not that empty I could go with a machete and cut out everything that won’t serve a purpose to me But I am self aware And I do many things And one of them is not to pull you like a puppet string I bite I bark I lead I fly I play I never sting It's the things that don't seem to matter that give me wings I drowned a million times before but I never forgot to sing Liquor was my best friend and some weed I was a fiend A bunch of other But i'm cleaning out my closet Picket signs and skeletons Clean Chorus with Marlaena Moore How does it feel when you let it go You move your body like never before You’re like a girl in a video A film about kicking down the doors Always wonder when you slip and fall If you’re tired don’t be shy to crawl Back on your feet it might take a while Face on the ground but you keep your smile Verse 2 Crack my knuckles yes I think that i'm invincible I don't answer to you, just out of principle It get really low sometimes but it is beautiful It's crazy when you know something but at times it just slips away Ricochet, out of your mind thoughts are kept at bay I wonder why my legs are shaking that’s some scary shit I hope for it to stop but its my brain that’s controlling it I'll put the kettle on and hope this herbal tea relaxes me Got some shivers while I'm writing all this truthfulness Pouring out of me like im a tipped cup spilling my madness I'm the happiest but saddest at the same time I climb to reach my prime but I got baggage to unwind I'm fine Really I am and when you pry I’ll decline Privacy’s my sanctuary, safe is divine I feel the safest when I know that what is mine is mine I'm a mime with a finger up, that’s a sign Chorus with Marlaena Moore How does it feel when you let it go You move your body like never before You’re like a girl in a video A film about kicking down the doors Always wonder when you slip and fall If you’re tired don’t be shy to crawl Back on your feet it might take a while Face on the ground but you keep your smile

Voice Memo 02:28
“Como decir No es necesariamente porque une tiene un herida que tiene que sanar, o un ego que alimentar Puede ser que uno es ultra independiente o solitario porque es ahí donde se encuentra más Y es así cómo se construye, se conoce mejor Y a partir de ahí puede uno compartir, vivir, transmitir emociones verdaderas, verdaderas, únicas, auténticas Que no son necesariamente compartidas a la masa, a la gran masa, si no a un grupo de personas, escogidas” My dad

Tell me what you want Tell me if you can’t get it All your wildest dreams Tell me if you can’t see it I can give you all Everything I’ve got I can give you all Everything I’m not Cried so much feel like I’ve been waterboarded Endless paths that I never chose to to take I'm in so deep, the little things I appreciate Some days I wouldn’t even know where to escape Hid myself behind the cigarettes the drinks Every night a blur it cost me Just to think Reality dissipated with just a hit When it starts to fade away I get scared and then I blink Tell me what you want Tell me if you can’t get it All your wildest dreams Tell me if you can’t see it Tell me what you want Tell me if you can’t get it All your wildest dreams Tell me if you can’t see it Growing up a kid can be anything that it wants We leave behind a lot, those are the places that we haunt Time has sharp edges that confuse and condemn Get abused at the stem I know you’re a gem I would lie if it meant that you were healed Say goodbye in a letter you kept sealed Love you forever Through all of this absurdity You’re not a burden You are free to be Tell me what you want Tell me if you can’t get it All your wildest dreams Tell me if you can’t see it Tell me what you want Tell me if you can’t get it All your wildest dreams Tell me if you can’t see it I can give you all Everything I’ve got I can give you all Everything I’m not I can give you all Everything I’ve got I can give you all Everything I’m not Everything I’m not Everything I’m not Everything I’m not Everything I’m not Everything I’m not Everything I’m not Everything Everything I’m not

Been there and done that Yes that’s a fun fact They’ve never spent lives Keep it on hard drives Wet naps and pack sacks Ziplocks and big bucks Big bills for big trucks It’s deluxe Luxury gold Fit in a mold Stereotype that we all love to hype Cinnamon swirl, what a nice treat I live for the chaos Sticky and sweet Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Grocery Laundry Bills Taxes Spending All my meal Money I don’t wanna steal pennies Never will you call me Bonnie Hobbies Lately Feel Funny When you know you’re late with money I don't want time to outrun me I just wanna spend my life Fruition intuition I’ve been there and it’s bitchin I’ve climbed some high ass mountains Metaphorically speaking Holy grail of the riches A whale amongst these fishes I know damn well that I should never tell around these stitches They hold you down to lift you up It makes no sense Don’t give a fuck They put a price Isn’t that nice To take a life some thousand bucks Time is of the essence Perfume me with it’s fragrance I like it better When it’s free I like me better when I’m free Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Let go my hand Grocery Laundry Bills Taxes Spending All my meal Money I don’t wanna steal pennies Never will you call me Bonnie Hobbies Lately Feel Funny When you know you’re late with money I don't want time to outrun me I just wanna spend my life Grocery Laundry Bills Taxes Spending All my meal Money I don’t wanna steal pennies Never will you call me Bonnie Hobbies Lately Feel Funny When you know you’re late with money I don't want time to outrun me I just wanna spend my life

ANGEL 03:59
I met an angel back in the city She was pretty strong Our eyes met, memories flood Flashback loud music in a club Bitter taste in my mouth Smokes to infinity Drunken bike rides And strong winds Broken bones Shit happens Pictures and videos Phone numbers and payphones Pagers and voicemails Damn I miss your voice Wish I could hold you close Wish I could hold you close On my computer screen I saw an angel dance She was everyone we lost, all at once I felt it through her glance Didn’t need to ask why I witnessed her silence be With each exhale I broke down closer And she said Dance With Me Ooooh Dance With me Dance With me Dance With Me Ooooh Dance With me Dance With me Took the escalator To meet my faith I was in a useless place when I saw her time stopped Paused Rewound Old wounds and ghosts Old rooms at most It all came back Stomping on the stairs Hiding in the bath Being bad at math Smoking for the first time Coughing Feeling so bad and so good Being young Being free Being afraid Being me On my computer screen I saw an angel dance She was everyone we lost, all at once I felt it through her glance Didn’t need to ask why I witnessed her silence be With each exhale I broke down closer And she said Dance With Me Ooooh Dance With me Dance With me Dance With Me Ooooh Dance With me Dance With me Orange paint that I chip away in the dark Moon light’s my room up like I live in a park When the floor cracks I forget I’m alive Everything seems much worse when you’re nine Put the music loud to drown out the fear When you think you might be good in the clear Wanna to see your friends but you’re not allowed out Of your house and all he does is shout Finish your plate Don’t be late Heeeey Go to your room Finish your plate Don’t be late Heeeey Then my computer goes Dance With Me Ooooh Dance With me Dance With me Dance With Me Ooooh Dance With me Dance With me On my computer screen I saw an angel dance She was everyone we lost, all at once I felt it through her glance Didn’t need to ask why I witnessed her silence be With each exhale I broke down closer And she said
