Xzela:
Drowned in your ocean
I was weighed down, I was too heavy from the pain I was holdin
We were too young and we only saw love, I thought we'd grow old and
I was wrong, I was wrong
Always wonderin why we couldn't get the fuck along
Nothin wrong with some boundaries, they weren't there when you found me
But I'm one with my surroundings, I'll adapt to what's around me
I know power, I know pleasure, I know joy, and I know pain
You'll know everything I'm feeling by the way I say your name
Devin Burgess:
The distance I'd travel for you is ridiculous, all of this bickerin, shutting me out
Makin me timid with women I kick it with, all our predicaments linger around
Really I wanna just see you around cuz I'm really at peace like I peaked on a cloud
Cloudin my judgement cuz this isn't love anymore and to see you is bummin me out
Shorty been actin too cold, she won't tell me what's attackin her soul
How? When we was attached from the go
Hours spent tryna gather what's broke
Drownin when you got the power to float
Shoutin for you to get back in this boat
Fightin alone with love is an ocean, sometimes we all in the moment
*cue seagulls and waves and shit*

Xzela:
I'm in control and you hate it
But you tried to break me and I don't appreciate it
Finally I've got the upper hand, get a taste of your own medicine
We both know you ain't heaven sent
So I'll never be impressed again
You wanna love me, I don't want nothin from you
Luna Bruja:
Is it a crime to want something real?
And ain't it a shame you don't care how I feel
Now it's all in the rearview, hang my heart on the mirror
I've made up my mind, it's never been clearer

I wish I could dog ear my life like a book
First thing I'd do is think of how you look
Saw you when you walked in, and you saw me too
I had a diamond on my right cheek and so did you
Par for the course, I went and fucked it all up
And if you thought I was over it, I'm not and it sucks
It's been ten years now and I've finally grown up
A little late to the game and now I'm shit out of luck
Do you remember the night I fought a girl on the stairs?
You were holdin me back, I said "don't act like you care"
Everybody knows that when I fight, I fight fair
And I'd fight for you if I thought a chance was still there
Well your new girlfriend's cute
She really fits you
Like a glove the way I wish I would do
And no one will ever be you
And I don't know if I'll ever see you again
But just know
No one will ever be you
You're playin tonight with your band
If I ever cross your mind, just know I'm still your biggest fan
And while the pen's still in my hand, I just wanna say I'm sorry, wish I could do it all again
Baby I'm just crazy
Baby I been feelin anxious lately
Maybe I'm just crazy baby
I need your love to medicate me

I want a real love
The kind that comes with no conditions
I wanna be myself
And know I don't need your permission
I know what I want
I know what I deserve
Someone who loves my body, my mind, loves every curve
Someone who thinks I'm the funniest
Someone who doesn't tell me how to dress
It's my body and it's my mind
And I will find someone who doesn't wanna change me
