I Smoke Alone
I smoke alone
And burn in the limelight
Just a pile of Ashes by the end of the night

Riding A Storm
The anger inside
Impossible to hide
No one to confide
This storm I ride
Let me die
I do no good
I look at what's right and don't think I should
My soul is dead
Couldn't care less
Look at my room
This shits a mess

I Guess Its All Just A Memory
I guess its all just a memory
But where did I get lost?
Spending too much time in the middle ground
I can't imagine what I've lost
I've seen my
Life
Through your eyes
You've seen it too
As daylight does
I guess its all just a
Memory

Slug
Time stops with moments to reflect
Working for a dollar turns you into a pet
the vet said
'you better put him down'
But that's too easy id rather be a sad clown
you taught me everything I know
-I'm sorry
I can relate yo the music you show
-I'm sorry for your life dude
I'm a winner because you taught me how to lose
-this is my life, so follow if you choose

Sublime
Where do you go when there's nowhere to be
Turning 18 and finally free
Kid on the streets
2 bags in hand
My only goal in life
Start my own band
I'll need my voice
I'll need a guitar
But without a car
I can't go very far
Now I need money
Man says get a job
Working for nothing
I feel like a slob
I'll set a goal
Something to achieve
Seems the more I give
The more I receive
SUBLIME

A Drunken Scribble
I don't give a shit
Get on this
What you gonna do chili pepper
Suck my kiss
Give me a little taste of bliss
I'll try and take a shot
Guarantee I miss
Cuz I miss you
Miss additude
Why I came to you and acted so rude
nothing to talk except weather and food
ok no sun
Shit just begun
Cuz I lay the game
Havin so much fun
Drinkin all night I got
Vodka and rum
Slightly stoopid on the mic
Got me runnin with a gun
That's fun

This Garden
Here is me
In the center of this garden
Sitting all alone
wondering who's yard I'm in
everything is alright
I can survive this spot
But the trees look at me
Like I don't have a shot
Now I don't know what to do
I'm like another shark
Swimming through the pool
Everyone sticks together
Forever we thrive
But I'm still all alone
Floating steady through the sky

Fire vs Water
You see it there
That icy blue rock
Let's let the water flow
Let's let the light make it hot
The water moved
The moon will cause waves
Give them some grooves
Tell them to misbehave
Here is some land
Yours for you to roam
I built it with my fire
This molten lava stone
You see what has happened
what was blue
Now is green
Ever since people landed
It's been anything but clean

Never Gives Up
Never gives up
He always stays persistent
Time flies by
I hope you don't miss it
Days turned to months
Months turned to years
Here I am 21
Legally buying beers
I want to show up
With a bottle of wine
I know you don't care
To me that's fine
Fell in love but
Way too early
Maybe my style was lame
Or my hair was too curly
Now I've lost the one
The one that loved me most

Life On A Rock
What's the point for me leaving this rock
Out there it's too cold
Over there it's too hot
I don't want to be so comfortable in this sad spot
But when I look in the mirror
I see it's all I got
I can reach for the left
Or strive for the right
But I'm left handed never knowing what's right
Do I enjoy my life
Or turn it to a fight?
Can you enjoy life
If there's no reason to fight
Surrounded by dark with just a little bit of light
Seems it's time to start a fire if you want it burning bright
