Day Stealer 02:32
I can be a stranger if I want to I ain't your partner in crime But now that I belong to no one I think I like it just fine Day stealer got no light to shine She's all I ever wanted if all I ever wanted was a lie Everything's on exhibition, baby You can have whatever you like There's nothing more that I can show you Look out baby, here comes the night But all I ever wanted was a day stealer Got no light to shine She's all I ever wanted if all I ever wanted was a day stealer

Out in my leisure suit Take a bite of forbidden fruit It tastes good You said it's fun to do bad things And you know I want to do bad things with you Don't call upon me In the early morning If you don't want me Don't call upon me So won't you come and live with me I'll show you how it could be See it's good But you just want to mess around Can't even keep my ear to the ground It ain't cool

Green Lights 03:41
It's easy to hide the tears in your eyes when it's raining I was covered in sunlight I was beginning to feel like a person again But now there's a storm cloud up above my head It's a sad game to be playing when you've lost before you start But there's a right way to do it We could hit green lights the whole way home It's easy to find what you want when you're living in hell Just go on vacation I can't even taste the honey you put on my tongue I should've known if I want it then I might get stung It's a sad situation It's a game I don't want to be playing And the price we end up paying We could hit green lights the whole way home Why can't these red lights leave me alone

Money 03:50
I feel okay I got some money but I am afraid cause money makes you lazy I'm feeling fine my baby kisses me all of the time So please, don't take my girl from me I was hanging ten on a wave of loneliness I could've died, but I'm alive How come you give and then you take away One day I'm gonna walk away I'm out on the hunt for justice Ooh, street justice What'd I do wrong? I turned around and saw you were gone You always keep me waiting I was surprised There was no flash before my eyes Just black, it puts a bad taste in my mouth I was hanging ten on a wave of loneliness I could've died, but I'm alive

Keep Living 04:17
There was a dark cloud hanging over Tennessee Loss has got the drop on me My body was worthless so I slept in the dirt But I'm a big strong man so the pain don't hurt Some two-lane blacktop took my life Some slick motherfucker came and took my wife But I come back up, I had to change my game You get run out of town, you gotta change your name You picked up a penny and you gave it to me Is my luck changing? I don't know, but can't I believe? It's something so awful deep in my mind But I can't stop thinking which of my friends will be the next to die? Loss has got the drop on me

5th Street 02:33
A box chevy with a big ass beat is peeling out, makes a big ass screech And little kids talking on their phones They're walking in the middle of the road Walk to the store, grab a tasty drink The time alone makes it easy to think But now my time don't mean nothing to me If there's a girl that I'm trying to see Can I sleep through the night? Ooh, the block is hot In the heat of July Ooh, the block is hot Yes it is, the block is hot A police car creeping up the street My middle finger up where they can't see The beat is hot and the block is too But we don't worry they're coming for you My hood is good My house is good And green is good The block is good Ooh, the block is hot

Fortune Guns 04:15
Sometimes I get so lonesome that I just can't speak Been hiding out of the sunlight for weeks Sometime I need a reminder of what I'm doing here If I close my eyes I might disappear Because something bad has happened Something bad has happened to me Wish I'd wake up laughing But something bad has happened to me I thought I found me a woman She didn't want me around Been getting pretty good at falling down Some day I'll be in the kingdom and shoot my fortune guns I don't know when but I know that day will come Because something good is coming Something good is coming to me I just woke up humming Cause something good is coming to me

Raag Pt. 1 03:22
I know it's cold My friends are made of gold Put your hands in my pockets We go riding Slippin' and slidin' Do you love me, baby? You should try it Money couldn't buy it It belongs to nobody Shut me away These are my dark days Don't you come 'round knocking There goes my sister I sure do miss her She will live forever Same time next year I will meet you here Won't you wear your hair down?
9.
Raag Pt. 2 03:33
I feel funny and I feel strange I don't know why but something changed Like a rock inside my shoe I can't seem to get to you Don't know what I'm gonna do with you Tonight I'm gonna change my plans I was born to be your man But your heart is like a stone You just want to be alone Go your way and I will go my own

What's with today What's real today Been doing what I can to keep the darkness away Cause I can't turn off I can't turn it off Been reeling down the road and I don't think I can stop They might get upset And if they get upset They make you smoke all your cigarettes And if you can't connect If you can't connect You get six lashes for disrespect Mama I know that I ain't gonna die Too tired to laugh, too high to cry Go ahead and cross me one more time I'll show you yours, you show me mine But this pain in my heart has got my teeth grindin' Sometimes I feel I need a six-foot hole to climb in Said goodbye to the things in my life that I just can't fathom Whatever happened in the past, gotta look past them
