Always Better With You

Wherever I go
Whatever I do
Stay by my side
Cuz baby it's always better with you

In the middle of the pouring rain
On a crowded subway train
When I'm just about to go insane
You make it go away
Monday morning in a traffic jam
And I'm going to be late again
The world is getting underneath my skin
I see you smiling and
Know that it's going to be okay

Wherever I go
Whatever I do
Stay by my side
Cuz baby it's always better with you
Girl when I'm alone
You're where I belong
Cuz baby it's always better with you
Baby it's always better with you

You make a bad day better than good (so good)
You make me feel better than I should (than I should)
You understand when I'm misunderstood
Like no one else ever could
And girl you show me things I never see (I never see)
If you were never there to see them with me
And when I get a little too crazy (you know I'm crazy)
You are my sanity
And everything will be okay

Wherever I go
Whatever I do
Stay by my side
Cuz baby it's always better with you
Girl when I'm alone
You're where I belong
Cuz baby it's always better with you
Ohhh ohhh
Baby it's always better with you

Girl it doesn't matter where we go
Cuz you always make it feel like it's home
When I'm with you

All that you are

And I feel,
All the faint morning light,
Filled with hope 'cause you're here in my life,
And we've gone,
From the edge of our souls,
Made it back to a place we call home.

You, see me through,
I was alone in the dark and the fear was my truth.

Yeah, all the things that you are,
Beautifully broken, alive in my heart,
And know that you are everything,
Let your heart sing and tonight, we light up the stars,
All that you are.

I feel wrong,
I'm so human and flawed,
I break down even though I'm still strong,
And time, will make fools of us all,
Builds us up, and then laughs when we fall.
You, pull me through,
When I'm alone in the dark and the fear was my truth.

Yeah, all the things that you are,
Beautifully broken, alive in my heart,
And know that you are everything,
Let your heart sing and tonight, we light up the stars,
All that you are.

You're the sound of redemption,
The faith that I've lost,
The answers I'm seeking no matter the cost,
You opened the window,
Now I can see,
And you taught me forgiveness by giving your love back to me.

Yeah, all the things that you are,
Beautifully broken, alive in my heart,
And know that you are everything,
Let your heart sing and tonight, we light up the stars,
All that you are.

Yeah, all the things that you are,
Beautifully broken, alive in my heart,
And know that you are everything,
Let your heart sing and tonight,
Let your heart sing and tonight, we light up the stars,
All that you are.

Oh I feel,
All the faint morning light,
Filled with hope 'cause you're here in my life.

Rescue Me

As Swiss clocks tick on the wall, they echo,
As the raindrops begin to fall,
Sound like machine guns against the windows
The storms heatin up as the cold wind blows,

And I'd give anything to hold you, who's ever hands this time
Yes I would go to hell in back, Just to satisfy
I'd hold you like a new born, no harm would come your way
But it seems you're not out there, so theres nothing left to say, so..

Can you Rescue me?
Cause my ship is sinking
And I'm drowning at sea
So can you rescue me, from me?
Can you Rescue me?

Through it all, you'd think I'd given up by now
Still I write these cold love songs, as unnecessary as they seem
But I'll write it all down till my hand breaks down
Or until the seams start to wrinkle in my jeans

It's a mystery to me, how the heat and the humidity
Can make the sweat glands pour, so effortlessly
Or are those tears of Joy, that I selfishly seek
Yeah I've built up walls, for someone to tear 'em down
To show me that the grass is greener on their side of town, so..

Can you Rescue me?
Cause my ship is sinking
And I'm drowning at sea
So can you rescue me, from me
Can you Rescue me?

Sittin here all alone tonight, no ends in sight
But the stormy weather, put perspectives in light, and
When bulbs go off inside your head, dont waist them on a dream
Seek the deeper meaning of what in lies between
A buried treasure lies beneith

Theres a notion of commotion,
Under "Unstoppable" locomotions,
But held below the oceans, lies the messages afloatin'
Wading at sea, Waiting to See
Peaceful Serenities, as needless,
No, as needed to be, so...

Can you Rescue me?
Cause my ship is sinking
And I'm drowning at sea
So can you rescue me, from me
Can you Rescue me?

Outro:
I dont know what else to do, but to write to you now
Truth is, I know exactly what to do, but I haven't the slightest clue how...

My House (Slaughterhouse Sample)

Intro:
I want to be the best who ever did
Dont know if that goal is feasible, or is it?
But if it is please god, if you're listenin'
Please give me the strength to crush the competition
You can't blame for dreaming, I'm a dreamer
And if I'm coming off brash please forgive me
I just wanna be the illest me, thats all I want
At the same time being as real as I can be

Chorus:
So welcome to my house
Where no one comes back out
You might find comfort, in here

Verse:
Growin up, I wanted to be a writer slash boxer
Livin' now that fighter is still tickin' like clock work, it's
Installed in me, watchin Iron Mike on the TV, as a young one
Now that rage is on its way to conquering the machine, but I
Remember my first Cd, was The Marshal Mathers LP
So much controversary surrounding him, yet I was only thirteen
But could already relate to Em, man it was a blessing
To hear that pain comin through 500 watts as I sat home summer restin'
I remember, that exact day as it was, playin' playstation one, MLB 2000 and somethin'
Mom picked it up at walmart, looked in wrong section, looking from M&M's
Came home empty handed, went back, bought it while I was watchin him win a grammy
With Elton John, to stomp them all, and have those deadbeat haters come back empty handed
Ten years laters or so, I'm still that little boy, trapped in a mans world, with expensive toys
Dad, you inspire me, comin' from absolutely nothin, to makin millions outta nothin'
Yet you're still as modest as they get, and thats why im here to just spit
Something to honor you, hope you're proud of me, along with mom too, cause that'll do
that's all I want, ever needed, dreams and hopes instead of demons
Wishin' I could help little brother defeat it, that diabetes, scream it louder than speakers
Blowin up, is what I do when I cant take it no more, with each step I take the floor by storm
Would break a block of cement with my bare hands, if it meant I could fix it for Cor,
Cause little bro I'd do anything for you, Cause you're my hero,
Instead I slam that door, run out out in violence, while violins play in silent
Cue the music, as destiny's a riot, and i'll never understand why we continue to live in this hell
half the time I wanna play Shredder  and make 'em curl up into my shell,
This Mahem, I can't seem to explain it unless im on this typewriter and spit it,
Tempted to throw this entire modem out the window and quit it,
but I can't get rid of this gift, so my soul inside, these words are how I rid it,
It's like good riddance on a green day, but ain't it rain it days
Grass is dying and water bills keep climbin higher than Mount Mckinley
Will the end of me really be serenity or is that prayer simply for the pitty,
Dont have an answer for that, but i'll go hard till I cry bricks and my wrists break bones
From these sticks and stones, I'm ET, Phonin' home, but no ones theres
without a care, glimpse or stare, what you wear? is that your hair?
You look so angry and so tense that you probabley came from the militar-,
Let me stop you right there, cause they did one of my grandfathers so wrong
So Im not gonna spend another minute on this corrupt country in my song
Im just tryna tell the story of my life, rappin to be the best dead or alive
And if I fall short, at least I gave it try, Royce you read my mind,
Im almost to the point where I'd rather live in a box and write with this pen
Than live in my mini mansion, with ten cars and continue on, with this accountin'
Stop me now, cause I could go on for hours, these words flow like if niagra had falls runs,
Call me the prototype of proto-call, mom, dad, hope I was enough to call the prodigal, son.
Even as the mental illness kicks in, I'll wipe my feet before I step in,
So instead of these fist, i'll use my words as weapons to conquer the hopeful heavens. 

Chorus:
So welcome to my house
Where no one comes back out
You might find comfort, in here

Outro
I want to be the best who ever did

Please give me the strength to crush the competition
You can't blame for dreaming, I'm a dreamer
And if I'm coming off brash please forgive me
I just wanna be the illest me, thats all I want
At the same time being as real as I can be

My Home

This place is many things
But I'd never call it home
It's just a building in a city
Everywhere I go
This place is many things
But I can't call it home
Home is the voice that I hear
Every night on the phone

And I've done a few things
I wasn't proud of
Might of said a few things
That hurt you
But you're still the only one
Who fills me up
And every night spent alone
Was worth it

You are my home
You are my everything
When I feel so alone
You are my home
You are my shelter
When all my hope is gone

And I've seen many things
But they don't look like home
There just the bright-lights from a city
Glowing all night long
And I've seen many faces
But they all look the same
Home is the place you are
And I just wanna let you know

That I've done a few things
I wasn't proud of
Might of said a few things
That hurt you
But you're still the only one
Who fills me up
And all tears that we've shared
Were worth it

You are my home
You are my everything
When I feel so alone
You are my heart
You are the one
When it all comes undone

Ode to Joy

When its psychological warfare
Shes the only one in the world that I know cares
A precious stone with her brown hair
A pearl diamond gem, she is so rare
Found at the bottom of the deepest ocean
Trapped in a bottle that used to be a potion
She's like the rivers and seas mixed with a little bit of lotion
Once rubbed in, it just soaks right in
She addicting, Like the nicotine patch that you wear on skin
Yet not conflicting, With every moment causes a remembrance again,
It's rejoycing,  Pardon the pun of the words I spin,
If this life is a game, then with her I win

It's the motivation that she gives me
The infatuation that she rids me
Of all the evil demons,
And the love that she gives me,
Testimony of my life,
Hand upon an unwritten bible,
I've took it all in stride,
Now I live to be her idol,
The one she looks up to,
The measure to her survival,
The one she tells love you,
A beautiful blessing in disguise,
Lifting me higher than the Eifel. 

Upon the hands of time, I rewind
The past of present time
For the futures intertwined
Scalding beneith the surface
It's all hidden with riddance of the compass.


Unfinished work, old...but yet true....



One Text Away

You dont know how many times,
Ive picked up the phone and wanted to reach out to you
Hoping you havent' forgot about those times we shined,
Remembering all the candle lit times we had
Overshadowed by all the bad
In the end, I just wanna be so far gone in you,
But im afraid you may have never knew
My mistakes got the best of me,
As you witnessed my words come true
Yet im still lost inside of you, in you.

Dont you remember those days
we sat up all night in the rain
and those thunderstorms wouldn't keep u warm
that was me knocking at the door
and you felt sheltered from the pain
I did everything to tame the darkness,
cause I knew someday, you'd run just to stay
and now you're just one text way

Can't stop the recording in my head
it's playing the first song, "I remember when"
You played it on your Ipod that one day
Now the song stuck in my head is "over and over again"
So sometimes I cry because your love was,
Enough to heal, but yet it broke us,
It's not your fault, it's not just truth or dare
It's not a game when you can't bare the look in your stare
I always worried and wondered if you really cared,
Hoping that when I really fall you'll meet there
Like a permanent stain left on a paper plate,
This mark you made can never be erased.
But for your sake, Even though you're just one text away
Im afraid I had to save you from the pain...

Dont you remember those days
we sat up all night in the rain
and those thunderstorms wouldn't keep u warm
that was me knocking at the door
and you felt sheltered from the pain
I did everything to tame the darkness,
cause I knew someday, you'd run just to stay
and now you're just one text way

I dream of the day you're there to ressurrect me from my standing ground,
I dream of the day you're there to lift me up everytime I've fallen down,

They say the space between,
is bigger than anything that we've ever seen.
I want to protect you from every harmful thing
Even in my demise, my heart remains....Yours
And you're the only thing keeping me alive
To strive for a better life, torn,
between being scared of being left behind
So like a message in a bottle, I'll stay lost in you
Trapped behind these salt watered ocean blues,

Dont you remember those days
we sat up all night in the rain
and those thunderstorms wouldn't keep u warm
that was me knocking at the door
and you felt sheltered from the pain
I did everything to tame the darkness,
cause I knew someday, you'd run just to stay
and now you're just one text way
