Note to Self

I sat down and cried
Trying to figure out my use of time
I ran away
From problems I'm too scared to face
But darling, don't leave me behind
It's all on you, you're all you got this time
Say you'll never let me down
Say it so loud they can hear it two houses down
And I'll try to be everything you want me to be
Behind the smoke and lights it's what I see
I've always been a sheep in the crow
Felt compelled not to stand out
But darling, it's all in your head
The mask you wear, now you can shed
Say you'll never let me down
Say it so loud they can hear it two houses down
And I'll try to be everything you want me to be
Behind the smoke and lights it's what I see
So walk on home now, it's over
Take your bow
Pick up your bags
It's a long walk home

Where You Going / I Been
03:51

Where you going baby
I've been questioning your ways
Think you've got it figured
Tell me why you make the same mistakes
Why you make the same mistakes
By the time I've seen the light
I'm coming home, alone at night
Why does it seem so misplaced
The roads are clear but my heart, it aches
Where you going baby
I've been questioning your ways
Think you've got it figured
Tell me why you make the same mistakes
Why you make the same mistakes
Traveling far, I've walked the path of men before
From women's hands
I have been so damn afraid
Of losing grip of what is made
Where you going baby
I've been questioning your ways
Think you've got it figured
Tell me why you make the same mistakes
Why you make the same mistakes
Papa he told me "don't call me no more,
I won't be here with you when you hit the floor"
I'm trying to figure this thing we call life
I've fallen and tripped and I've put up a fight
(Ari Lennox - I Been)
Said I been smoking purple haze oo
Oh to forget about you
Said I been smoking purple haze oo
Oh to forget about you
Make the same mistakes
Why you make the same mistakes
Make the same mistakes
Why you make the same mistakes

Company (Lullaby)
03:57

Cried, cried myself to the moon
Told her secrets I've never told you
And she laughed, laughed at all my jokes
The ones you said were getting old
So I cried, cried myself to the moon
Gave her all I once gave to you
And whether you choose to see me
My heart will ache for your company
So now, I wish you peace
And days of joy with new company
And when I choose to cry
I've got the moon and I've got the sky

Don't Call Me Baby
03:21
|

Don't call me baby
I won't come back
You think that maybe
I'll cut you some slack
I'm not that kind to change my mind
So don't call me baby, I'm not your baby
Don't call me honey
Cause I'm not that sweet
When you come running
That's when I'll leave
You think that I'll be your perfect doll
Well boy, I'm sorry
I'm not that at all
Don't call me sweetheart
My heart is mine
Been down this road
It's not so kind
Your expectations just won't be met
I've got so many things left unsaid
Don't call me baby
I won't come back
You think that maybe
I'll cut you some slack
I'm not that kind to change my mind
I'm not your baby

Unaware
03:36

Told myself I wouldn't do this again
Told myself I wouldn't try
Told myself I wouldn't listen
Told myself I wouldn't lie
Look where it got me down this road
That I've been down before
Then it hit me, water so cold
You were there, unaware
Like we did this all before
Did this all before
Did this all before
Did this all before
Told myself I wouldn't cry anymore
Helps me sleep at night
Then I go back seems like nothing's changed
Same old problems, same old fights
Look where it got me down this road
That I've been down before
Then it hit me, water so cold
You were there, unaware
Like we did this all before
Did this all before
Did this all before
Did this all before
Look where it got me down this road
That I've been down before
Then it hit me, water so cold
You were there, unaware
Like we did this all before
Did this all before
Did this all before
Did this all before

Mista Moon
03:24

You're not that kind of guy
Who speaks his mind
But that's ok with me
You seem so unafraid to be yourself
No matter what I say
And I love you (I love you) mista moon (Mista moon)
For all you choose to be
And I'll be there by your side
Whenever you might need me
I'm not that kind of girl
Who trusts herself
With all that love can give
I know I've hurt you bad
And dimmed your light
Though you can still forgive
And I love you (I love you) mista moon (Mista moon)
For all you give to me
It seems that sometimes I forget
Your love and sincerity
And I love you (I love you) mista moon (Mista moon)
You're not that far away
And you'll be there by my side
Whenever I call your name
You are that kind of guy
Who won't give up
When times have been so blue
If love can hurt this bad then I'm just glad
My days are spent with you

Listen
04:08

Walk with me and try to be all that I see
Take my hand and don't look back
The world is your's to play
And whether it's blue or black
Honey, I've got your back
Listen to what I speak
The lesson's in what you seek
Leave it all behind
Look around you'll find
You've been trying to run away
But I'll always be here to stay
All you've done is not in vain
I know the path is filled with pain
Suns have set and moons have passed
You know the pain will never last
And whether it's blue or black
Honey, I've got your back
Listen to what I speak
The lesson's in what you seek
Leave it all behind
Look around you'll find
You've been trying to run away
But I'll always be here to stay
Listen now
Listen now
I'll be the one
And whether it's blue or black
Honey, I've got your back
Listen to what I speak
The lesson's in what you seek
Leave it all behind
Look around you'll find
You've been trying to run away
But I'll always be here to stay
