at us (You still suck!) Like the time that girl broke up with me 'cause I wasn't cool enough TRICK! Things...things...here

The little things, little things, they always hang around The little things, little things, they try to break
me down The little things, little things, they just won't go away The little things, little things, made me who I am
today, GO You wanna hate me now, but I won't stop now 'Cause I can't stop now
Yeah, what (C'mon) what, yeah (What)

the car we had that wouldn't start we had to walk to get around (Can I get a ride?) And that same year on Christmas Eve
dad went to the store (I'll see you kids later) We checked his room his things were gone, we didn't see him no more DICK! Things...things...here

"The Motivation Proclamation"
Spend your lazy, endless crazy days, inside my head,
You're so selfish, you're not the only one who thinks he's dead I'm paid to smile, now I'm on trial for what you think
I said But I never said that everything would be ok, And I never said that we would live to see another day..yeah..yeah..
[Chorus:] Motivate
me, I wanna get myself out of this bed, Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head, If I fall down would
you come around and pick me right up off the ground [x2]
I'm realistic and narcissistic, You say I'm selfish
and absurd You try to change me, you try to save me You say I'm gonna learn, I'm so blind, I'm out of time, You're
so unkind sometimes, I never lied, I never lied, I never lied Cuz I never said that everything would be ok, and
I never said that we would live to see another day..yeah..yeah..

"East Coast Anthem"
Walking on the streets of D.C., On the East Coast where
I live, You say what's the problem What's with this angry kid You don't like the way I walk, or the way I
talk, or the way I swing my hands, You don't like the words I speak, or the thoughts I think, And I know you'll
never understand
[Chorus] You know On the East Coast, we ride until we die You know, Well there's
a place inside my mind, Yeah, a place you'll never find, There's a place inside my mind, Walk this way There's
a place inside my mind, Yeah, a place you'll never find, There's a place inside my mind, We'll leave today You
know
Wouldn't it be perfect if I could sit with you? And we would change a thing or 2, we'd change a thing or 2, We
would change the way you think, we would change the way I think, We would change the way they think but we're not changin'
anything
[Chorus]
Well there's a place inside my mind, Yeah, a place you'll never find, There's
a place inside my mind, Walk this way There's a place inside my mind, Yeah, a place you'll never find, There's
a place inside my mind, We'll leave today You know...
"Festival Song"
I don't care about a thing today I used to but I'm fed up And I can hear
the words you say I wish that you would shut up I've got responsibility that is my liability, a menace to society
At least that's what they say to me
[Chorus] But tonight, tonight, it's on tonight I don't want your
boring life, And I don't want your 9 to 5, Or anyone to tell me how to live my life
People always tell me not
to waste my time, To get a real job and get back in line, You can say I'll never be a millionaire, Tell me this
guitar won't get me anywhere,
I've got responsibility, that is my liability, I'm questioning authority They
say there's not a chance for me
[Chorus]
Your future's no future, Your future's no future, Your
future's no future, I control my future
[Chorus x2]
i'm leavin i'm leavin i'm leavin TONIGHT
"Complicated"
one time... one time (alright here we go) two times one
time for your mind you body and your soul every time that I rhyme you know I'm in control alright here we go here
we go here we go
And we've been here for so many years, But still it seems as if you're not there (are you there)
Well, every time I talk, you turn away (do you care), Isn't Dad an obligation to care And we said...
[Chorus:] And
we've been here for so many years, So many years still it seems... so why you're so complicated, (yeah) you're overated,
(well alright) you're complicated, Well this feeling is love.
Well I came in the door, yeah I said it before,
I never let the stress get me down no more Giving thanks to the Lord, you know I pray every day, Giving shouts
to my peeps and this is what we said, And we said...
[Chorus]
You got your one little room with a
black and white TV, one eviction notice, and a bill for therapy, Now you're living all alone you're like a dog without
a bone, You're living all alone 'cause you left us all at home, Well you had a second chance but you threw it all away, A
fourth and fifth and sixth now that was yesterday, Now you're sitting at a bar just drowning in your tears, Lonely in
the corner while everybody cheers, And we said...
[Chorus]
"Seasons"
Summer air reminds me of all the feelings of your love, And what it was
like when we were together, Walking all along the beach, you were never far from my reach, And you held me through
the stormy weather,
[Chorus:] And I, I want to fall in love tonight, And I remember when you said "everything
is gonna be alright"
Laying in the summer grass, you told me not to talk so fast, As I told you how I feel, You
made me feel right at home, You told me I was not alone and you knew just how I feel,
I know we talked about it,
I just can't get around it, I just want one more night with you,
[Chorus]
October air reminds me
of all the seasons of your love, And what it was like when we were together The smell of fall is everywhere and though
it seems, I just don't care, 'cause now you've gone away,
[Chorus] (Alright) I (I wanna fall in love) I
(I wanna fall in love tonight)
"Don't Wanna Stop"
All these games you play your messin' with my head,(messin
with my head) I don't know why I stay I should leave instead (I should leave instead), When I speak from my heart you
laugh like it's a game (this ain't no game) Yeah we'd make great friends, but it just isn't the same...
[Chorus] And
I know this is not the way it should be, And I know you treat him like me, But I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna
stop, I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna stop [x3]
Now I don't need you to buy me pretty things (you
don't pay for me), Pay for my tattoos or buy me diamond rings (we don't want those things), All I know is that I'm
happy to see you smile (i want to see you smile), And it'd make my day if you'd just stay for awhile (stay with me),
[Chorus]
This
has gone on for way too long... And I'm tired of movin' on [x3]
[Chorus]
"I Heard You"
Today I screwed up again, You said I could tell in the way you said goodbye,
I saw you sitting at your t-shirt stand with your new boyfriend, He's really cool, I get the point
[Chorus] I
don't want you, I don't want you, I heard you, I heard you, I heard you say not a chance, What don't you see, I
don't want you, I don't want you, I heard you, I heard you, I heard you say you're not good enough for me [Chorus
Ends]
Today I screwed up again, I wasn't paying attention, I walked into the wall again, I heard you laugh
and saw you grin, While you were sitting at your t-shirt stand, With all your cool friends, they're really cool, I
get the point
[Chorus] [Chorus Ends]
Today I'll give it one last try, And then I'll wonder
why, I did it to myself once again, I saw your boyfriend, he's 6'3", Quarterback on varsity The football players love
to torture me, So I'm feeling like I'm not fitting in, I know that I'm not fitting in with you, And your stuck-up
friends, I get the point
"Walk By"
She walks down to the store at eight, The devil walks with her and he thinks
she's great, When she looks at me, I don't know what I saw, I think he's tryin' to make me his son in law
[Chorus] When
she, Walked by, walked by, walked by, she walked on by [x2]
Let's go! Yeah
Egos fly when she walks
by, She caught my eye on October 9th, 22 days before Halloween, How did I know she'd be my evil queen,
[Chorus]
My
mother warned me against girls like you, She said stay away from them son, you know they're not true, All they're
gonna do is put you under a spell, she told me, When you're fallin' down, you're going straight to hell
Let's
go! Yeah! Oh! C'mon!
Yeeah! Walked by, walked by, walked by, I'm gonna walked on by [x2] Let's go! Walk
on by Walk on by Walk on by Walk on by
"The Click."
Just because I walk Like Obi-Wan Kenobi You people talk But you don't
even know me But thats alright, cuz I get down with GC, So I walk on, and listen to their CD's. Some people
laugh They do it just to spite me Behind my back They don't know what I see But I don't care what they say I
don't need them anyway I'll just go about my day But anyway
You go out on Friday night I'll stay in but that's
all right 'Cause I have found a click To call my own, in-crowd Out-crowd I don't care, your crowd My crowd We
can share 'Cause I have found A click to call my own (Let's go)
So come and talk to me On my computer screen The
best years of our lives Aren't as easy as they seem But one day we'll look back And then we'll have to laugh They
used to call us names Now they want our autographs To get the girl and make the grade It's all a show It's all
a game And I would lose it if I play It's all the same
So I don't care what they say I don't need them anyway I'll
just go about my day But anyway
You go out on Friday night I'll stay in but that's all right 'Cause I have
found a click To call my own, in-crowd Out-crowd I don't care, your crowd My crowd We can share 'Cause I
have found a Click to call my own
She says she'd call But I know she won't (She won't) (She won't)
You
go out on Friday night I'll stay in but that's all right 'Cause I have found a click To call my own, in-crowd Out-crowd I
don't care, your crowd My crowd We can't share 'Cause I have found a Click to call my own (Let's go)
I
don't care what you say I don't need you anyway I'll just go about my day But anyway
I don't care what you
say I don't need you anyway I'll just go about my day But anyway
"Let Me Go"
Down in the streets outside of Washington, D.C., I wasted all my time and
you were there with me, Back then it meant so much to have you by my side, I always had your back, and you always
had mine Sayin...
[Chorus:] Let me go, Have some fun, Well my decision sucks to you, But I'm
so young
We'd hang out late and fight just trying to have fun We were such punk ass kids but we knew everyone
And who could see through such blazed up bloodshot eyes, There was a plan for us one day we'd realize,
[Chorus]
na
na na na ...
[Chorus x2]
"Screamer"
Communication is a lot like the wind when I speak, It's like no one understands,
and I'm left with empty hands, Forever I can't speak, So many things I'll never learn, You can't cross bridges that
you've burned,
[Chorus:] Why is life such an issue in your mind, Why are the answers to my problems hard
to find, So hard to find,
Don't forget to buckle when you fall, Beneath the pressure of the seconds when, Your
life became a screamer, Staring at the sea things become so small, I want movies of my dreams, and pictures on my wall, Pictures
on my wall,
[Chorus:] Why is life such an issue in your mind, Why are the answers to my problems hard
to find, So hard to find,
You say that I'm a dreamer, I say you're a non-believer, Take out the light, take
out the light start screamin', I'm dreaming, I'm a dreamer, no one believes me, And you don't either, So tell
me what to do, Take out the light, Take out the light, Take out the light, Take out the light start screamin
"Change"
on...on and on and on and on and on on and on and on and on and on on
and on and on and on and on
I am lost in the see-thru I think you lost yourself too Throughout all of this confusion I
hope I somehow get to you I practiced all the things I'd say To tell you how I feel And when I finally get my chance It
all seems to surreal Cause from the first time I saw you I only thought about you I didn't know you I wanted
to hold on to The things you'd never say to me
[Chorus:] Cause you said You can't change the way you
feel (I could never do that, I could never do that) But you can't tell me this ain't real Cause this is real (And
you would see right through that) In the end its all I've got (So I would hold onto that) So I'm going on On and
on and on and on On and on and on and on and on and on and on
And now you've got me watching your eyes (Watching
just to see, watching just to see) You've got me waiting just to see (If you'll ever look at me) If it goes away
it never will (Will it ever go? Will it ever go my way?) Your eyes are watching me Oh And now you've got me thinking
'bout The first time that I met you Standing in a crowded room But I could only see you And I hope my words will
get through Cause now I can't forget you I wanna tell you If only I could reach you And make you feel this way
[Chorus]
Ohhh On
and on and on Ohhh On and on and on and on
"Thank You Mom (bonus track)
Always, Always and Forever [x2]
I'm sitting
here I'm thinking back to a time when I was young My memory is clear as day I'm listening to the dishes clink You
were downstairs you would sing songs of praise And all the times we laughed with you And all the times that
you stayed true to us
Now we'll say, I said I thank you I'll always thank you More than you could know Than
I could ever show And I love you I'll always love you There's nothing I won't do to say these words to you That
you're beautiful forever
Always, Always and forever
you were my mom, you were my dad The only thing I ever
had was you, It's true And even when the times got hard you were there To let us know that we'd get through you
showed me how to be a man You taught me how to understand the things people do You showed me how to love my God
You taught me that not everyone knows the truth
And I thank you I'll always thank you More than you
could know Than I could ever show And I love you I'll always love you There's nothing I won't do to say
these words to you That you will live forever
Forever and ever [x2]
[x2:] I said I thank
you I'll always thank you More than you could know Than I could ever show And I love you I'll always love
you There's nothing I won't do to say these words to you
That you will live forever
