(Verse) Darkness all around me, don't know how I'll get out Darkness all around me, don't know how that sounds But I'm fighting, I'm focused, I've been here, I wrote this Tell me, you noticed Lately, my dreams, been feeling like nightmares And if I'm awake, I'm still quite scared Don't you worry about me, I'll be alright eventually I just wait and see, did I do enough that you'll remember me? Don't lose it, don't lose it now (2x) Don't lose it to the darkness You have now entered, the story of... The Dreamer

(Verse 1) I’m sitting here just writing words inside Don’t have no place to hide, don’t have no place that’s mine Sometimes I accidently verbalize, a couple internal lies I’m going nocturnal, that’s the only way I write I’m stretching rhymes, stretching rhymes til the morning The last shot that blast off, it must’ve been a warning Wondering why I sit here like I’m still in mourning I might pack it all up and just move to California Move away, move away, that’s the easy route You better turn this up loud, blow your speakers out They say the good and the bad will all even out But am I leaving out, the things I really think about You’ve overcome your demons, now what’s there to dream about Fork in the road, and I’m eating on the cheapest route Do I have a pure soul or have I finally sold it out I’ll let you know the answers, once they’ve been figured out (Hook) Unsure, uncertain, and unclear (3x) I don't know (echo in background) (Verse 2) I don’t know what you’ve been waiting for I have no explanations, destinations, or a famous tour I don’t want the fame no more, but I guess that it’s been said before Was I speaking truth, the answers no if you were keeping score Try to learn from the past as once again I swim to shore Another boat sunk, battleship, peeking at my board This isn’t a world war, but a war of my world But can I afford what I give to that girl (Hook) Unsure, uncertain, and unclear (3x) I don't know (echo in background) (Verse 3) Maybe we could take a moment try to process it all Will my feelings come spilling out like Niagara Falls Don’t know the true or false, maybe I get too involved I spent too many years tearing down all their walls Who do I call? Who I call? Call myself now Don’t want the belt or the wealth, I want held down People on this path, would probably say I’m hellbound Funny thing about it, they’re the ones I’ve helped out (Hook) Unsure, uncertain, and unclear (3x) I don't know (echo in background) (Verse 4) One opportunity for me to go and spit it I’ve gone too deep on all these fucking limericks It’s a lyric that I’m fearing, when I’m feeling incoherent Got the spirit of a cleric but I’m thinking you don’t hear it If it’s apparent that I’m errant, where is the heir who will inherit All of the despair that I’ve been singing out in lyrics Not prepared for me to steer it, to a clearing I can share it If you open up your ears, you’ll get the feeling I’m preparing A mix of my ideas and my fears in the open The times that I’ve been broken and tears that were soaking Thoughts in my head, getting deeper than the ocean My only request is that we let a little hope in

(Intro) Who lives on the dark side, get a bit lighter That love went dark, we’re in search of a fire (Verse 1) And I ask where my sanity lives If it comes around again it’ll be profanity lit And I’m just a man, abandoned my wits So if I’m at wits end, which end do I sit? Can I overcome my demons, think I’ve finally said enough But every time I try to leave a wall is up This isn’t reflective, or even transparent Aware that my cares, steer near the inherent I go out for air, where’s the heir apparent If I didn’t sit here and think about weekends out Maybe I could figure out this overwhelming form of doubt It’s compelling if I’m telling you I’ve evened out I think I’m standing stout, ready for the title bout There’s a few things, that I’ll never ever figure out A couple punches, I get knocked out It’s the 10th round, but I’m down and out (Hook) Who lives on the dark side, get a bit lighter That love went dark, we’re in search of a fire If I live where the distance is not required Then this love just might be unrequited (Verse 2) Said last time, I’m done being depressed But you can see the last line, it’s not an easy defense I won’t be baptized in a sea of regrets I know there’s a few things, I’m just not seeing them yet This is my battle cry to a beautiful perspective Open your eyes and see what’s connected I’m electing to reject this, notion I’ve ever blessed, It’s a commotion chosen like a never-ending death wish Caught in the monotony, it’s part of the profession Even if my wallets deep, I got a lot of questions Will I go insane, if my worries never ending? I know those lines got a little bit extensive I can’t fill the void, by buying things, expensive I need to find something else to invest in Some days I wonder where that thing in my chest went (Hook) Who lives on the dark side, get a bit lighter That love went dark, we’re in search of a fire If I live where the distance is not required Then this love just might be unrequited (Bridge) I see the light looking up at me But when I walk in the room, man I just can’t breathe Man I just can’t breathe, it’s like the darkness really got a hold on me (Verse 3) Am I hypocrite, just working all day now A slave to a job, for a pay, I can’t hangout Got no time for the people in my life But distance is relative, why do I need a flight? I might fight with myself all night Feel I’m running out of time, boy I need that light Tell me how you’d feel if your dreams in sight But you can’t be the pilot, won’t make that flight Even if I’m wrong, I will always write And If you wanna sing you can take that mic I just wanna see your fucking spirit ignite And if you feel you’re breaking down, know it’ll be alright (Hook) Who lives on the dark side, get a bit lighter That love went dark, we’re in search of a fire If I live where the distance is not required Then this love just might be unrequited

Clark Kent 03:01
(Spoken word) I gotta take the suit off, hang it up. I’m just can't be Superman anymore (Verse 1) I must stop this train, saving girls for years, it’s time to take that blame, I know I say these things, Same time, searching for my Lois Lane Like, where she at? What’s she got wrong? I’m on my way now. Not in this song Too many times, I’ve been the savior, So long old me, see you later (Hook) No phone booth, no blue suit I’m going Clark Kent, I can’t save you Superman gonna hang up his cape Make a move, found an escape What do you do when you hate the way? Every time it seems I gotta save ‘em, hey (Verse 2) My kryptonite is in my lack of vulnerability Thought that I was getting better, guess it’s just silly me On the chopping block or they’re bringing out the guillotine I tell myself you’re safe now, but I’m seeing things And I don’t wanna be the same guy, do it all again And you hear it through the grapevine I hate rhymes sometimes I can’t avoid ‘em But I spit these lines, I’m sorry it gets annoying I could have been the king, the one you would have anointed Try to build a castle but I’d probably destroy it And I can’t be Superman, going Clark Kent When the day's end, can’t save them (Hook) (2x) No phone booth, no blue suit I’m going Clark Kent, I can’t save you Superman gonna hang up his cape Make a move, found an escape What do you do when you hate the way? Every time it seems I gotta save ‘em, hey (Outro) Can't save 'em (3x)

(Verse 1) Whole lotta love, don’t know how to express So I keep these feelings tight to the vest Is it time to confess, but confessions always had you asking questions Are they open ended or a hopeless poem, no blessings I wonder what I’m stressing for Like a matador, you’re the bull, bring out the horns Maybe I’m just battered, tattered in a scattered war I don’t know the truth, but that doesn’t matter anymore (Hook) Standing on the top floor, I ain't got no wings Standing on the top floor, All I do is sing Standing on the top floor, can't fly, can't fly Standing on the top floor, I don't wanna die I really think we need to battle through What we had to do is what we have to do, and that’s the truth It’s hard to choose because either way I’m singing blues Either way I spin this poem I’m dizzy and confused I convinced you we would lose, but I’m changing points of view It’s poignant, get the ointment, because these scars aren’t just on you So maybe I’m just crazy and should find someone to talk to Or get lost in my work, but that’s how I lost you (Hook) Standing on the top floor, I ain't got no wings Standing on the top floor, I'm just gonna sing Standing on the top floor, can't fly, can't fly Standing on the top floor, I don't wanna die (Verse 3) I’m sorry I’m not done checking off boxes, or being obnoxious, Life on autopilot, I’m alone in the cockpit They tell me just stop it Tim, it can’t be that bad, you’re just a bit off it But I quit watching, bought wrist watches, But my time option, isn’t on time, honest Don’t even have enough time for these rhymes, awesome Maybe I’m just playing possum, Maybe I’m just straying, saying how I lost ‘em If it’s the 80s, I’m having babies with the first option Don’t move away, I ain’t crisscrossing Moonwalking across the globe, load up on the hoes Sorry bout the terminology, I suppose But I gotta go, it’s time to get away As I’m running from my own words, now what do I say? (Hook) Standing on the top floor, got no wings Standing on the top floor, all i do is sing Can't fly (3x) Don't die (4x) (Verse Apologies, for all my latest odysseys It’d be a bit odd, if I was trying to groom a prodigy I’m standing in the ocean, yeah the ones where the piranhas eat Can’t calculate my bearings, it is scary, where to move my feet Aware that I’ve been daring my defeat I’m not caring if I’m wearing these emotions on my sleeve And if you get confused you’ll see That over time, my rhymes are sharing All the unique points I bury And they said I need some blessings, but I’m already living carefree So if the truth and lies get married Where’s the proof for youth to carry I’m so tired of being weary So I’m gone, I’m out of here, it’s back to The Dreamer, now so scary

(Intro) Up late at night, stuck in my thoughts Doing that three o’clock moonwalk (Verse 1) My inner self, just came down off the shelf And said, ‘Yo Tim I think I need a little help’ I didn’t notice, don’t lose focus, don’t lose focus An interview or interrogation I’m confused, not allowing any space in And at every day’s end, trying not to hang ten riding this wave, but I’m crashing off the deep end Long car ride, crash around the last bend That’s the truth, kid. Why my thoughts so abusive? And who is, using my mind? Should I let you in? I can’t do that, I always use rap But these thoughts just get trapped I need my mind to adapt, but why, do I doubt that (Hook) Up late at night, stuck in my thoughts Doing that three o’clock moonwalk Up late at night, feel I got lost Doing that three o’clock moonwalk I’m replaying all my daily events I’m feeling like an alien, yep Three o’clock moonwalk (2x) (Verse 2) In 2010, I had to hand the torch off It went to T.D. and we’ve never let the tour stop In my youth, I acted like a doorstop T.D. was my inner boost of confidence And ever since he came around, I’ve been getting compliments He don’t worry about the consequence Sometimes, he lacks some common sense It’s okay, we always get through it I try to find a balance but this can get confusing Some days I’m too much Tim, I go back to that quiet young kid Open my brain and let T.D. in, And it’s okay, if you think I’m kinda crazy At this point, my answer’s probably, maybe So will you lay with me? And see the world, through my screen (Hook) Up late at night, stuck in my thoughts Doing that three o’clock moonwalk Up late at night, feel I got lost Doing that three o’clock moonwalk I’m replaying all my daily events I’m feeling like an alien, yep Three o’clock moonwalk (2x) (Bridge) Moonwalk just like Michael J I’m sorry I chased some friends away And all the words I couldn’t say I’m sleeping through another day Three o’clock moonwalk Yeah, you might be shocked And I might just stop Three o’clock moonwalk (Hook) Up late at night, stuck in my thoughts Doing that three o’clock moonwalk Up late at night, feel I got lost Doing that three o’clock moonwalk I’m replaying all my daily events I’m feeling like an alien, yep Three o’clock moonwalk (2x) (Outro) And I could tell you how it is, But I guarantee it isn’t Today, I finally found my vision Mixing with my inner me, in perfect unison So, if you’re just tuning in Stop this track, and play it again, play it again I like to keep you wondering, friend Now you’re wondering when Three o’clock moonwalk (3x)
7.
(Verse 1) 4 o’clock, 5 o’clock, then the morning alarm I wake up, face up, I hate what I’ve become (what I've become) Now bang these drums So I can go off, like I told y’all It’s dream time, let the snowfall And you’ve seen rhymes I just blow off Like a blizzard coming in the winter months Moved south to avoid that And I’m a little bit nervous so my voice cracks Cuz I get a bit worried where’s my joy stashed Feel the T-Pain when I voice facts (Transition) (T-Pain) See homie, I just made it work It's a cold world, ask my old girl She feels my pain, and I ain't even try to make it hurt And my daddy's proud of me, But he got too much pride to say it out loud for me (Jay-Z) Allow me to reintroduce myself (Verse 2) It’s T.D., its’ always stood for The Dreamer need some help you better call FEMA Wait, I’m not rapping that flow, I’m such a master Every single other rapper after, me They just a chapter in a book, we never gave a second look I’m triple double Westbrook with my left hook Wait, I gotta be honest, a couple of these lines are feeling obnoxious Get to the real, start opening boxes All I really found was a couple of watches Old college papers when I wrote for The Rocket And a little bit of info how my bank deposits What’s that, a birthday card And a couple other things I hold close to my heart If I read that book it’d leave me with scarred And have me reminiscing how I was at the start It might tell me why I’m alone in the dark But I think I already filled in that part Did you know that though? As I’m looking through my mind’s old Kodak roll I can’t see what I did with my soul It was there once in that throwback pose Maybe I’m a poser when I flip that prose Like here goes the cold water, better grip that nose (Bridge) And I don’t think you really know why Somedays I’m worried that I might die Shoot too high for the stars, what if I miss that though I’m beyond those clouds, I’m in a different zone That means I’ll float away until I just don’t know I’m happy for you all that found your way home Better I’m worried about the journey and that’s this poem (Outro) So I wrote it for my own sake I can’t tell you what it means, but it’s not fake I woke up from a dream and it’s not great Every time I dream, it’s my wrong fate It makes me hesitate, like I did this wrong But I put it on the album, it’s my lifeline call But in real life, I think I skipped that song

How Much 03:35
(Verse 1) My mind’s cloudy with the same old things I don’t even know what the day gone bring Angel on the shoulder, but she spread her wings So the demons right here, got a hold on me I start to wonder, if I’ve had enough of it You probably wonder if I’m getting out in public I’m making strides to avoid becoming recluse I tried to keep it all together then cut it all loose And I think, I should probably stop it all Tears in my eyes, then they flowing like a waterfall I’m the type of guy who won’t let you know he’s vulnerable Aware that’s a flaw, and let’s see what else I’m doing wrong It depends on the angle that you’re looking at it Make a couple changes, but what else would have happened I’m not here to revisit the past, but I have a could questions, If I could ask? (Hook) How much do I cross your mind? If I’m asking this, from 1 to 99 How much do I cross your mind? Is it a little, do you think about me all the time? How much do I cross your mind? Is it the reason that you’re staying up late at night How much do I cross your mind? If I’m being honest, well, nevermind (Refrain) Questions and answers, I wonder, does it matter? (2x) (Verse 2) Tell me what you’re really thinking late at night Questions in your head. Do you wonder if we did it right? I know we talked but I didn’t find closure Maybe that’s a reason I gotta be alone more Filling all my time with 1,000 distractions Only time I let it out is when a fucking track spins Try to move on but I cannot find the traction Slippin, sliding, everywhere, where’s the satisfaction Buried in the mud, all I get is backspin What’s in my mind is if I want to have you back again It seems, I got a lot of questions left I guess this is the song, where I finally get ‘em off my chest (Hook) How much do I cross your mind? If I’m asking this, from 1 to 99 How much do I cross your mind? Is it a little, do you think about me all the time? How much do I cross your mind? Is it the reason that you’re staying up late at night How much do I cross your mind? If I’m being honest, well, nevermind (Verse 3) Truthfully, it’s really hard to quantify I battle back and forth, I don’t mean to dramatize When I think I did it, crossed T’s and dotted I’s I have a second thought, then I start to prophesize How would this go? How would that work? What’s a fair sacrifice? What’s it all worth? So I told no lies on this whole verse But it didn’t help the questions unanswered (Hook) How much do I cross your mind? If I’m asking this, from 1 to 99 How much do I cross your mind? Is it a little, do you think about me all the time? How much do I cross your mind? Is it the reason that you’re staying up late at night How much do I cross your mind? If I’m being honest, well, nevermind (Outro) I don’t know what to do next (4x) With that said, I pass it to my old friend T.D. is back to save me from the deep end He’s the one who gets me out on the weekends No feelings, so we spend

I’m a time collector If I hit my stride with this rhyme-connector It might open up my soul to its prime, perfecto I don’t know why I let you go But since I’m writing this song, then I didn’t let go I’m just searching for a paradise But this left me feeling paralyzed Thinking I could use a pair of dimes Talking real hot with the Fahrenheit 150 so I flood the ice It don’t even matter what’s the price I didn’t buy it to tell the time, I just bought it because it’s hella nice (Hook) I might buy Armani everything That would guarantee, she never gets a wedding ring I might buy Armani everything Yeah, I’ll take it, take it, take it, it's all I need (Verse 3) Final chance for me to try to wrap it I could use a guest verse, call up Chance the Rapper Wrong number, so he ain’t gonna answer Guess I’ll do it on my own, find out what I’m really after You could give the dog a bone ET, I phoned home Talked to my dad and my mom They said what’s wrong I said, this song I said, it all They said, don’t fall But I never called Use this mic like a therapist I know you’re aware of this Once again, I’m derelict Terrified of embarrassment Wrote the script and the character In search of the fairest world I’m shopping online Wishing I could buy a miracle (Hook) I might buy Armani everything That would guarantee, she never gets a wedding ring I might buy Armani everything Yeah, I’ll take it, take it, take it, it's all I need

(Intro) I don’t want you to feel like, you’re not good enough for the world now That’s the biggest lie that I’ve ever heard, you better keep on fighting when you get discouraged (Verse 1) Take a step back, from that ledge friends This the story that’ll never, ever, ever end I’m sorry, if you thought, when you saw the title That this was my demise, and they were shooting off a rifle This is more like my revival More like, More Life, as I’m sneaking through some time zones I’m worried this’ll put me on trial Like you got a book of sermons, that you’re reading with your eyes closed Peek-a-boo, where you going? Achooo, Can you beat the flu? If not, we got some work to do I’m a cool dude, with an attitude That’ll get you battered, like a cake, Wait, I would hate for you to be late Don’t need to do double take, I’m not in any trouble, Hank But if you feel like you’re drowning in a lake I’m gonna try to be your safety net with these stories that I paint (Hook) I don’t want you to feel like, you’re not good enough for the world now I don’t want you feel like you gotta write a whole bunch of words down I don’t want you to feel like there’s only one way out That’s the biggest lie that I’ve ever heard, you better keep fighting when you get discouraged (Verse 2) And the first verse was laced with braggadocio Had to get it off my chest, now I’m feeling closer To the message I intended, let’s leave this open ended I’ve had some bad nights, I hope you’re not offended You’re the reason I’m still breathing, though you don’t write back I’m just telling all these kids to find their own outlet And though I’m not sure what you’re going through Take this as a gift, I wrote a couple poems for you You can keep them, and there’s no reason To keep your secrets, you should speak them That’s a line that I always rely on Music is a metaphorical shoulder to cry on So let your bygones, be your bygones This song is a reason to smile on So if you feel that there’s nobody that cares I’m standing right here looking with my two ears (Hook) I don’t want you to feel like, you’re not good enough for the world now I don’t want you feel like you gotta write a whole bunch of words down I don’t want you to feel like there’s only one way out That’s the biggest lie that I’ve ever heard, you better keep fighting when you get discouraged (Verse 3) And I’m not trying to be the savior Gotta steer your own route, be your own sailor Go on your own trip, hitch up your trailer Forget about reality, we'll get to that later All I’ll ask is that you do me this favor Make tomorrow great, and the next day greater I’m guessing you know the next word I’d rhyme with I hope I’m making something that will end up timeless

(Intro) (Female laughing) (Verse 1) And I’ve been down a time or two I’m sorry for the things that I didn’t do I’m sorry for the dreams that we couldn’t prove And I’m sorry for being sorry but it is true So tell me if you’re really waiting for, something to come and fill up that vacant floor I see us all, always wanting more I see us all, always unsure Tell me that you’re in it for the right things Tell me that you’re seeing all these light beams To tell the truth, I’m frightened by some nice dreams Go to bed, see what another night brings I’m waking up, waking up to see the day Tell the kids, tell the kids it’s okay We hope they stay strong, don’t go away Let my lyrics be a wave, that’ll wash away (Hook) I see your light shining bright, oh my, your light shines so bright (light shining all night) Let that light shine, let that light shine, let that light shine bright (2x) (Verse 2) I hope you won’t let go This ain’t the time to be chasing for a halo I know there’s bad days so we lay low But I’m trying not to worry bout the payroll You tell me that your lights out, this is how to turn it on I’m trying to be your lighthouse, I won’t steer you wrong So what you wanna talk about? I got two ears right here, I’m gonna hear ya out Tell me the truth, your truth is what I’m talking bout But the light keeps shining out (Hook) I see your light shining bright, oh my, your light shines so bright (light shining all night) Let that light shine, let that light shine, let that light shine bright (2x) (Verse 3) There’s this picture I keep looking at It’s not of me, it’s not of you, it’s none of that But every time I see it, I think the same thing If I could go there then I could change things But that’s not the way life works I don’t know what I’ll write on the next verse Lately I’ve been stressed, and my head hurts But at least I’m not in fear of my net worth I just want to be real, no network Telling me your dreams, you should dive into them headfirst I’ll be back to write more when my pen works I still need time to organize my next verse (Hook) Let that light shine, let that light shine, let that light shine bright (2x) (Outro) Just remember, everything will be alright. I promise.
