SILENCE
Yeah, I'd rather be a lover than a fighter
(fighter)
'Cause all my life, I've been fighting
Never felt a feeling of comfort, oh
And all this time, I've been hiding
And I never had someone to call my own,
oh nah
I'm so used to sharing
Love only left me alone
But I'm at one with the silence
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been quiet for too
long
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been silent for too
long
I've been quiet for too long
I've been quiet for too long
I found peace in your violence
Can't show me, there's no point in trying
I'm at one, and I've been quiet for too
long
I'm in need of a savior (savior), but I'm not
asking for favors
My whole life, I've felt like a burden
I think too much, and I hate it
I'm so used to being in the wrong, I'm
tired of caring
Loving never gave me a home, so I'll sit
here in the silence
COME AND GO
I try to be everything that I can
But sometimes I come out as bein' nothin'
I try to be everything that I can
But sometimes I come out as bein' nothin'
I pray to God that He make me a better
man, uh
Maybe one day, I'ma stand for somethin'
I'm thankin' God that He made you part of
the plan
I guess I ain't go through all that Hell for
nothin'
I'm always fuckin' up and wreckin' shit, it
seems like I perfected it
I offer you my love, I hope you take it like
some medicine
You tell me, ain't nobody better than me, I
think that there's better than me
Hope you see the better in me, always
end up betterin' me
I don't wanna ruin this one
This type of love don't always come and
go
I don't wanna ruin this one
This type of love don't always come and
go
I don't wanna ruin this one
This type of love don't always come and
go
I don't wanna ruin this one
This type of love don't always come and
go
I don't wanna ruin this one
This type of love don't always come and
go
I don't wanna ruin this one
This type of love don't always come and
go
We take drugs, then you hold me close
Then I tell you how you make me whole
Sometimes, I feel you like bein' alone
Then you tell me that I shoulda stayed in
the room
Guess I got it all wrong, all along, my fault
My mistakes probably wipe all the rights
I've done
Sayin' goodbye to bygones, those are
bygones
Head up, baby, stay strong, we gon' live
long

HAPPIER
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be
happier
When the morning comes
When we see what we've become
In the cold light of day we're a flame in
the wind
Not the fire that we've begun
Every argument, every word we can't take
back
'Cause with the all that has happened
I think that we both know the way that
this story ends
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Know that means I'll have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be
happier
When the evening falls
And I'm left there with my thoughts
And the image of you being with someone
else
Well, it's eating me up inside
But we ran our course, we pretended
we're okay
Now if we jump together at least we can
swim
Far away from the wreck we made
Then only for a minute
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise your spirits
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Know that means I'll have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be
happier
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be
happier
Even though I might not like this
I think that you'll be happier, I want you
to be happier
Then only for a minute (only for a minute)
I want to change my mind
'Cause this just don't feel right to me
I wanna raise your spirits (wanna raise
your spirits)
I want to see you smile but
Know that means I'll have to leave
Know that means I'll have to leave
Lately, I've been, I've been thinking
I want you to be happier, I want you to be
happier
So I'll go, I'll go
I will go, go, go
7 YEARS
Lately, I feel so alone
Don’t even know why I have a phone
Nobody hits me up and I’m stuck, never
had someone that I could call my–own
It’s lonely walking down this road
Fake friends that I didn’t have to know
The same ones that fucked me over and
whenever I need 'em and I turn around
they just turn–ghost
I feel I’m at an all-time low
I am depressed and it hurts me to know
My ex is happy and I can’t seem to cope
She’s ignoring every text message I wrote
My anxiety’s high, my medication’s low
I am so stressed and I hate being home
I sit and overthink everything alone

I wish I had somebody to hold, damn If I could choose one person, I would
I’m sick and tired of putting up a front choose you
Like I’m happy, but really I am in a slump I hope you understand my pain
I try to stay strong, screaming, “I don’t 'Cause that’s something that we all gotta
give a fuck!” go– through
But if anybody would give it, then I'm the

I hide behind this rapper I’ve become I hate being down this road
Addicted to bein' accepted’s like a drug Been down before
No one’s here, I feel like I’m ready to I feel like I need you more
plunge I’m so alone
I remember you said my music was wack Since I was seven years old
Teachers persuading me to try to give up My future’s all I’d imagine
my act And now I’m here and I look back, I’m
They said the image and the drive is what screamin', "Damn it"
I lack This the life, I never planned it
Made me think maybe I could never be a No, I never planned it
part of rap
Well, I ignored that, I said, "Fuck it," and
snapped
Over twenty million plays, where are my
haters at?
I didn’t need a label to give me a chance
The day I sell out an arena I'll feel like I’m
the man
Buzzin' hard, but to find nothing
Never found someone who really loves
me
People comin' around now 'cause I’m
gettin' money
A few plays later, now they all see
something
The same guy that is from the start
The same guy my ex left with a broken
heart
The same guy who turned music into his
art
The same seven-year-old who dreamt of
bein' a star
I’m twenty-two, and I won’t let myself
down
I stood up right after I fell down
It’s hard to see Heaven when you know
you're Hell-bound
I never really opened up and that’s until
now
I hope that I never lose you
