Memories 03:32
And I remember she was my only warm. December the one the amnesia could remember the one who could defy laws of gravity I don't know why I'd forget her these are my memories I recall She was the one who gave it all I was so unworthy what a look of awe I would give her she changed my world from bitter to better. These are my memories It gives me chills thinking when we sat and daffodils laughing together rolling up and down the hills forever. falling in to love I never get enough these are my memories I don't know why she'd ever come back to me I don't know why I let her go oh no I only pray that she will return one day until then I will until then I will remember And I remember the club in which I sought to be a member daydreaming of a dream in which I have the pleasure of sitting adjacent even just with that I'd be complacent these are my memories And I recall summer was my countdown until fall maybe this would be my year maybe she would call maybe she would fall as I passed around the hall catch her in my arms her hero standing tall I get butterflies running diving in her thunder eyes striking livelier than lightning descended from a Viking she has that warrior spirit I miss it oh so dearly these are my memories I don't know why she'd ever come back to me I don't know why i let her go oh no. I only pray that she will return one day until then I can't I can't. Remember the one I left you for. My past was so much better than the one I'm looking towards. I would have given all that I could afford but a whole lot of lust is so hard to ignore. And I can't recall the reason for the distance that came in and out like seasons we would constantly change life-and-death love many nights it kept me up. thinking in between the shadows that separate us and these memories these darnded memories stick around in the dark inflicting me like treachery the very things that keep me attached to my darnded past they won't seem to pass and it kills me

SomeoneLikeYou i want to know if you, told me the truth when you told me you loved me too and I'm holding on to you, even though you told me to go and find someone new someone like you, do you remember the letter i sent with the yes or no check box that meant i wanted you to be with me as i went to another galaxy in a sea of things that remain free, or how bout them flowers i delivered, now they sit here with the message return to sender, and I'm taunted by the smell and the black of their shadow figure, i put em right next to our elementary picture and my jacket retains smell, i sit all alone in the dark to ashamed to yell i really wanna try but think that I'm gonna fail i really wanna talk but i might let out a wail i really wanna walk but I'm scared cuz I'm by myself floating out to sea on a ship without a sail swimming upstream on a boat without a paddle I'm fighting a losing battle cuz death is sure to prevail i just wanna know if you, told me the truth when u told me u loved me too and I'm holding on to you, even though you told me to go and find someone new someone like you as if that was possible , if i do, I'm sure that the girl is just an optical illusion, worsening confusion letting go of you is against my constitutional rights so I'm letting go tonight, and I'm falling into the wind i'd rather hit the concrete then fall again into sin i'll just pass her a note to let her know its a no i'll be on my own a loner so determined to blow and you, well you can take my fancy or you can compliment me and my dancing I'm not sure what you want out this here friendship maybe you can teach me to talk in spanish its hard to be with you and still not mention everything we had i learned to use discretion i also learned a lot to love someone new maybe someone who was almost nothing like you and i just wanna let you know the memories may last but the hurt has got to go so i'll be walking down this road, of life without you but maybe not alone *Didn't make the cut* someone like you is so hard to find if i could redefine the meaning of decline i would change it to accept and not accept less than a yes from a queen in a dress so fresh and i would play it cool for the camera and i would say a few things standing up and then on one knee, ask you to marry me

LetUsDance 03:13
LetUsDance. let us dance like the universe. never ending and infinitely pleasing to the undiscovered senses that you make me feel, the places we have not yet been, but that i know are real. be my universe and provide me with everlasting potential so that we never get tired and so that our dance stays sensual. let us dance. let us dance like the moon. as we dance across the floor, our own world. stars of your eyes and a moon of your smile. lets illuminate the night with our glowing style. but do me one better and never leave too soon, be my sun so when you leave, you send me hope through the moon. let us dance. let us dance like the wind, so smooth, yet forceful, never lacking presence or even the essence of itself. as a matter of fact, why don't you be my wind. **surround me. softly caress my skin as you dance around me. let us dance. let us dance like water. powerful in its motion, rhythmic in its step. let us drown in the slow beat of this song we have kept. come to think of it, I almost drowned in your eyes, so be my water and give me life. let us dance. let us dance like fire. bringing back memories of the camp fire where we met. i made you a smore **and you wanted more, but not more of the chocolate marshmallow graham crackers, more of me. we both had this burning sensation to engulf each other. **be my fire baby, hold me close and keep me warm as we dance in the night in the midst of war. let us dance. let us dance like we do. longer than music plays, longer than today, giving a new meaning to dancing the night away. let's dance until we can no longer stand without the use of a crutch, and when that time comes lets wobble together and fall in each other the way we fell in love and knew that there would never be another that could dance the way me and you do, so let's dance for forever, lets dance in the wind, lets dance everyday to ignite love again. let the moon be our disco ball and the universe our song. let the waters rise as we dance all night long. lets us dance together. lets out-dance the rest and know that our dance is the best dance yet. **some of my favorite lines

BallroomBeauty slippery when wet the floor is out to get me and the girl of my dreams i've yet to meet watching, her pass the time time stopping elegantly sitting with her left knee crossing the right. waiting for the time in which to step forward as i move awkward in my vest **deaf, i only hear the beating of her breath **blind i only see the heart beneath her breast i can only feel the pressure time is moving faster as i press her closer growing older the space around her body careful not to mold her the sky above her is opening angels singing so hopefully the time is now, and i approach her with her frown and i plan to turn it upside left backwards and right take her on a train tonight, we can go to Germany france paris or Hungary wherever she would like but first things first, i have to make a move, and you know, it has to be smooth otherwise, she'll probably pick some other guy but she sings so beautifully like and then she stops so i proceed on the journey in trying to catch a vibe similar to frank when he sang strangers in the night the band is, playing music too bland its destroying all my chances at making any advances i resolve to face the problem which i cannot solve how to face the woman of my dreams with holey socks Holy God, send a sign of if she will or not fall for me. cuz if she will we're falling hard together then out of nowhere i feel a change in air i hear the universe whispering in my ear "Jacob, the time has now arrived, go look her in her eye, the one behind her hair she tries to hide. and when you do then you will find, the window to her soul and you can know her in due time" so i do and the eye is black her boyfriend beat her earlier then left her in the back of the crowd where i found a gem. she said her name was Jen. she said she prayed for God to send a man, and here i am. i said amen lets have a dance, and then she laughed the first smile she cracked all night we had a blast. from then on no looking back and i ain't tryna spit game no more I'm just tryna help a queen live dreams galore her skin so smooth like jazz so we step forward with this new slow dance it went on and on and on, from sunrise to sunset to dawn. and it went on and on and on and on….. *Didn't make the cut* 'beautiful' lies in the eyes of the beholder but, hold up, beautiful lies are the grossest **some of my favorite lines

iWish 03:14
iWish i remember when we first sat down on the bench. it was love at first sight i have to admit. i thought you were the one for me. we just clicked. everything was going good, at least in the moment. we spent everyday talking on the phone it brought us closer than a super sonic cone on a stick. i loved the way you smiled at me it would send the butterflies in my stomach up for a spin fluttering. my upper lip stood still, you wondering what i was gonna say but you were just so stunning then. i left my mouth open letting all the drool run from it. felt my cool heating. thought our cookie was crumbling but little did i know, that was just the beginning of the rest of my life. didn't know you'd be in it. but not all the way from beginning to ending. i started the love but i just couldn't finish and i wish i wish i wish i never met her. rustling my life like the wind with a feather but things just things just have to get better. she tried to walk away but i just wouldn't let her. so now i'm like, "baby please! please come back! i really am sorry for the way i act. i know my methods of love were not practical. you're going back to school, and now i'm missing you and you're missing in action too. the words i said will never be retractable. i messed up but now i'm coming back to you. lets work it out and you don't even have to pack a tool. i'm running to your arms. i hope you accept me. coping with the fact that you'll maybe neglect me. but during the process i'll be busy perfecting every corner of my life so I'm not defected and all i ask is this one last chance to talk, or maybe even dance. i'm standing right here just give me a glance. your eyes are the key to this lock romance." but she said no… and i wish i wish i wish i never met her, rustling my life like the wind with the feather but things just things just have to get better. she tried to walk away but i just wouldn't let her. and i wish i wish i wish i never met her. if i could meet her again i promise i'd do it better. i did i did once upon a time forget her. she slipped away once but not again will i let her. cuz she is she is so lovely and free, free to do anything. she chose to love me **so i wish i wish i wish i never met her if i could meet her again i promise i'd do it better **one of my favorite lines

Karma 03:27
Karma i told her i'd never love another and i would never take any advantage of her i told her we were meant to be for sure we would endure no matter the situation that could occur he told me in his eye i was an apple he said "i'd fight the world just to snatch you" he told me he would die if that he had to cuz love can win the war even when life can win a battle **i told her we could rule and even conquer **or i could be her knight in shining armor **or i could be a father to a daughter **or a son, one day proud of the people they become he told me he would love me to the end of time and then some more to redefine a human trend the way that people hate and then they love and then they hate is the pattern that he told me he would break i don't wanna think back to now and wonder what if i said some more i don't wanna look back on how i should have told you more i told her i would take her on a journey across the sky to sing along with all the birdies **i told her we could even catch a star **but i would rather catch a movie with the one close to my heart he told me that he only needed me and some money for my diamond wedding ring i told him that some candy would be fine but such a gentleman he poetically declined she told me that she couldn't do without me and she was incomplete until the day she found me she told me she could lay in my arms as i swayed her afar from any danger or harm **i told him he was sweet to my belly **butter to my toast peanut butter to my jelly i told him that i love the way he sings and that its just one of a billion things i don't wanna think back to now and wonder what if i did some more i don't wanna look back on how i should have loved you more i told her that i cheated on her once she said nothing and just stood there kinda stunned i told her it was so along ago but time never heals this type of hurting in your soul i told her nothing but I'm sorry it wont happen again and i wont go to no more parties. but still she stood in total silence i saw the pain drop like rain coming from her eyelids i wondered what was going through her mind the sound of nothing slowly killing me inside and then she opened up her mouth i thought it would be soft but then it turned into a shout she said, "its been killing me for months but its true i too also cheated on you once too consumed with hiding ugly truths i guess i never noticed that you were hiding it too" i told her i would lead her like I'm lead as a changed man who is following the Head i told Father God should be the center and if she sinned then i would love her and forgive her he told me we could soon become one in Christ so when i die part of me can live on **i told him i would love him like a prince **until he made me queen and we've been in love since and we've been in love since **Loves a long time and I'll love you every inch. **some of my favorite lines

Don'tChange 04:47
Don'tChange (favorite song off Rapn'Blues) one hand on my heart, one hand on my pistol shooting the stars hoping one might fall to earth and hit you i want that kind of spark, i think we need it to survive, you and i lust is fun but always ends up like mr bonnie and clyde run at me then we collide, like falling stars at midnight feel the rush then you decide if i'm worth half of your time i want you to know I'm honest, that lovely heart i want it **stick with me like lollipops in the hands of a child and shout i got it that smile, don't change it the way you act in crowds please don't change it and that walk, girl don't change it love me from bottom to top and never change it your hair, don't change it that way you care for others please don't change it your funny please don't change it the way you love me forever never change it and the further we stroll, down a road unknown hold my hand, i'll take good care, i'll take you where, you want to go you know right over that hill, the land of love sits so concealed close your eyes, then you can feel, the strength of trust begin to build and as we grow older, the world will grow colder a little bit of dust will set, but i would bet, the best is yet to come, the sun will rise and i will pray till the end of time to love you more, the more we date, and then one day when your hair turns gray so that smile, don't change it the way you act in crowds please don't change it and that walk, girl don't change it love me from bottom to top and never change it your hair, don't change it that way you care for others please don't change it your funny. girl don't change it the way you love me forever never change it Don't change it cuz this is jus the start, this is just the start of a journey. **All the stars don't shine as bright as you my darling you my darling. All **the gods are jealous of my goddess. Of my goddess. and why not? ;) **some of my favorite lines

NocturnalBlues Love has come over like a storm but the rain has just subsided. your heart sways back and forth like the trees in the wind but i stay silent let life be so free. don't try so hard let moon come out at night and the night is still young I'm on a run the day is gone but its going to come the moon high, would you like to travel, do you fly, do you want to ride on this gravel or rather would you like to swim across the blue sea to the steps of Beijing ride a trolley to the nearest days in pay for a night but we could really stay in somewhere on the beach or we could float home in a zone looking up at million stars all alone no phone unknown to the rest of existence except for a sea full of night time wishes Love has come over like a storm but the rain has just subsided. your heart sways back and forth like the trees in the wind but i stay silent let life be so free. don't try so hard let moon come out at night i know this lady is the one cuz i've only loved once and the nights just begun we landed on the shore close to new york money kinda short but our loves couture i know Europe is looking for a model and i know your up for a game of spin the bottle winner gets a face full of chocolate hershey kisses and a dance in the rain in a dress with a stain cuz there are no rules, its so true that love shines much brighter when the moon comes up i go higher inside of my mind and my time is up when the sun is high Love has come over like a storm but the rain has just subsided. **your heart sways back and forth like the trees in the wind but i stay silent let life be so free. don't try so hard let moon come out at night the sun is high above my head. i felt the warmth down my cold neck and once again i hold my dreams so they wont fall right through the seems until the sun comes down to set, come out at night And it was all a dream but i can feel it. no it was all a dream but I can feel it. oh yeah momma I can feel it. From my toes all the way up to the ceiling I can feel it. It's a brand new kinda feeling. The kind that make u feel like u don't even need a milli. Take a minute. Get ya feet wet bask in it. **Why u so beautiful and still masking it? Ms missy. U don't need to be so timid. If u don't take a chance then u really ain't living. If u don't understand come with me we can visit the other side of town if u ain't too busy. We can chase stars we don't need doo hickys. We can get lost like a kid in candy city. I can show u off to a people we discover. **And to your little sister I can be a bigger brother. You once believed in love but lost the notion of anything that had to do so let me help you rediscover that love. Love is the music of life. And life without music just can't be right. Right? Yeah. So just sing all night. And I'll sing right back with all my might. and it was all a dream but i can feel it….right? **some of my favorite lines

about

I love rap. and rnb. So my creative soul allowed me to explore a mixture of the two. Most of these songs were inspired by some of my favorite rnb jams from artist such as musiq soulchild, carl thomas, and alicia keys. Some people will think its "soft", but then again, I don't try to be "hard". I just make music and hope you can relate.
