Paper Money 03:55
Get off my back Feeling under attack You're talking shit But you'll get bit Cause you don't think, you only blame The changing of hands, choosing me to blame I've been working hard, didn't do a thing to you But you like to bitch when it suits you Accusatory mumbles, lies to my face And if I'm not the problem, someone in my place It never fucking ends, you feed your hate No time for this, got too much on my fucking plate I wanna leave But it'll be the same Cause people shift But they rarely change Paper money sucks, buys you a lie But it doesn't improve how you feel inside Got you chasing that carrot on a stick But they don't tell you that it's slathered in shit Accusatory mumbles, lies to my face And if I'm not the problem, someone in my place It never fucking ends, you feed your hate No time for this, got too much on my fucking plate Will you let it rot you out? Get off my back Feeling under attack You're talking shit But you'll get bit Cause you don't think, you only blame The changing of hands, choosing me to blame

Restless days, obsessive ways Distractions in my cave Fuck off man, the tension's high Don't ask me, I don't know why Maybe I'm tired of myself Maybe it's my mental health Stop the questions, increase the speed Play till my fingers bleed Rattle off and vent it out All the way with no pullouts The three of us, the fucking crew We'll slam on you, you go do you We do what we like to do Don't take any requests from you Drink or not, have a good time Won't fuck with yours, don't fuck with mine This is how I choose to deal Made to play and this is how I feel Three motherfuckers with nothing to prove Except to do what they fucking do Turn it up and shut 'em down Hyper-focused on the sound Of three motherfuckers with nothing to prove Except to do what they fucking do We like to sweat and we like to yell Step to the front and raise some hell Coast to coast, we're bangin' in your ear Ain't gonna tell you what you wanna hear Five years we've been at it again Don't hold back, we play to win Hard-ass work, and no flake outs Ain't got no time for doubts We do what we like to do Don't take any requests from you So put us on, turn us up We are unanimous This is how I choose to deal Made to play and this is how I feel Three motherfuckers with nothing to prove Except to do what they fucking do All or nothing

Reconnect 02:38
You never call, but you always got something to say A captive audience waiting on your every word Bunch of fakes with no thoughts of your own Social media call-out culture, but it ain't real Sick of you and all your posturing Never had the luxury of blending in, no Like to connect and share something real Never could try to fake the way I feel Phony lives and phony friends Woah oh oh Wish we could learn to start over again Reconnect and start a better trend Woah oh oh Wish we could learn to start over again I remember when it all was just a joke Social media, addition to your active social life, yeah Now we got news and politics, we like to front Like we're righteous sons of bitches, it's a bunch of fucking bullshit When's the last time you did the hard thing Had a conversation, tried to get some understanding It's all a sing-a-long, singing two different songs We all gotta have it our way Phony lives and phony friends Woah oh oh Wish we could learn to start over again Reconnect and start a better trend Woah oh oh Wish we could learn to start over again Reconnect and start a better trend Woah oh oh Wish we could learn to start over again Phony lives and phony friends Woah oh oh Wish we could learn to start over again Reconnect and start a better trend Woah oh oh Wish we could learn to start over again

Ego 04:08
I think about in the days of old How your words used to mean something Now you can't trust a thing you say Right now, it's "us" against "them" If you're cutthroat and you're smart You'll get rewarded with a heap of praise But even with everything going on I don't pine for those old days If I try to be understood, then I'll be misquoted If I reach for sympathy, then I'll be ignored Looking out for yourself is a trap we fall in No matter why we're lonely Say what you mean Mean what you say I think about all the time I've spent Wishing you'd act a different way You never care about anyone else And you've got to have your say It's gonna be what it's gonna be I just wish it'd all end soon When everyone's fed up with your ego Tell me then what you're gonna do If I try to be understood, then I'll be misquoted If I reach for sympathy, then I'll be ignored Looking out for yourself is a trap we fall in No matter why we're lonely Say what you mean Mean what you say

Enemy inside of me Taking all my energy Draining all the positive Replacing with negative Fighting with myself again Not letting the demon win But the voice is fucking loud Mind fogged up by heavy clouds Weakening my focus and my will But I'm fighting my way through it still Voices telling me that I'm a fraud There's nothing about me to applaud Pathing your own way takes time Perseverance and a solid mind Can't lose my humanity Change the world if it were up to me Cause the world is a cold, harsh place Much like the human race Won't abandon my principles To become a soulless fool So you can judge away, it won't change a thing Social media's just a fling So I'll preserve my truth and wear it on my sleeve No matter if it's lonely, I just wanna be Real with myself, that's all I have
