Being by myself alone, would it be harder than if
I showed my back to the mirror and carried my shoulders, You see
I hear the cheers are calling, but that rope’s got me on the ground
I’ve heard some people been chasing all their lives, I might be running on an 8 ‘till the day I die
But I gotta push myself to choose, I gotta fit in these new shoes, 'cause I’m running late on time

Late on time

Verse 1:
I see all of my friends chasing towards the lights: should I follow in?
I’ve burnt my hands so many times: is there something I should understand?
Am I building a fortress out of dreams?
Chorus:
I’ll go down this sweet valley, walk until I find a town
So I’ll be away, seeking for love and pride
Remember me, my name will be written on that sign, 'cause I’ll give myself a chance
Verse 2:
I’ve got six strings to my bow, will it be enough?
If not, I'll go and get my guts, because I’m running late on time
Can’t you see I’m all haze, will I reunite?
And I’m climbing those stairs, playing walk or dive
Am I building a fortress out of dreams?
Chorus.
Bridge:
I can’t control the world I’m living in but I can change those stares
'Cause this is my life (x2)
I don't get where I have to go
Success is walking past my door, I just gotta let them know
Fleeing towards your goals is something that never existed
No I ain't got to be afraid and my futur is never gonna break
I don't get where I have to go (x3)
And am I building a fortress out of dreams?
Chorus.

Olympia

Verse 1 :
Offer me the keys to drive, you're puffing vapors of sun
Your winy breath is heating my tum
And now, floor lamps swiftly fondle your eyes, not a doll
You're sculpture in motion, with emotions, to move with caution
I should care about my things
Pre-chorus :
I could never stare at you, even if I wanted to
Your eyes are those of a judge
Your mouth is begging for oxygen but we know that I can't help
Staring at me like Olympia
Chorus:
Oh girls from around the world, come here and observe when her hips are moving like that
I must be a hound but I'd claim myself king if I saw again her body shaking like that
She's got me saying : Oh oh oh
Turn it baby (x3)
She's got me saying : Oh oh oh
Turn it baby (x3)
Verse 2:
Skirt’s slowly falling down your legs it's making them close in an instant
I'd like to tie to you but you're already taken
Your heart is pushing me back and I can't seem to cross your eyes
Still you're breathtaking when you're close to me
Pre-chorus.
Chorus.
Bridge:
Ouh she's coming at me, it's like never for the first time
We kiss but our lips never touch babe
If I laid a touch on you, I would lose contact
Your belly contract
Pre-chorus.
Chorus.

Dream

Verse 1:
A fresh new world inside my eyes
I can’t recognize anything in my house
Glasses and chairs flying around and I’m also above the ground
Pre-chorus:
I feel alright I’m enjoying this night
It gives me goose bumps when you come and hold me tight
But at the same time I am wondering why I have the feeling that I am high
Chorus:
Kind a weird place, lights everywhere but I want to see that place with you
And it’s out of my mind? I’m feeling strange now. Don’t you have that feeling too?
Well after that I’ll try something for the first time, something that I want to do
‘Cause when I’m in here, it’s totally clear all I wanna do is jump with my crew
And we all say oooh oh oh oh oooh oh oh oh oooh
I’m back into my dream now (x4)
Verse 2:
Never leaving, never lonely, it’s just the perfect world to stay in
I’ll start crying tears of joy from looking at the sun
Pre-chorus.
Chorus.
Outro:
Since I’m getting older, older, older, older, older
I need to leave, reality is flowing on my skin
I hear you now (x8)

You and I
03:54
|

Verse 1 :
Would you mind me if I came
I’ll make sure to lighten up your day
And even if you make it tough, well that’s fine by me
And you’ll be in that dress I like
Gathering the worst and the best
And even if you make me cry, I’ll always forgive you
Chorus:
You and I, we’re pouring like the weather you’ve been dancing with
You and I, we know we love each other like a couple about to break
But you’ve got that thing that I can’t overcome for the sake of you and I
Verse 2:
You and I, we share a common mind
Since I’m living in the depths of your inner-self
Your blood flow is taken me places
I feel like no one tries, I feel like no one tried, no one ever tried
Bridge:
You hair spread like the lights of a million roads
And your arms open like two gates ready to snuggle me in
Oh well I wouldn’t say I’m surprised, since I’m feeling like
Refrain.
Verse 3:
I might have to carry on? I might have to slow down
I might have to slow down, I have to slow down, I have to slow down
I might have to carry on? I might have to slow down
I might have to slow down, I have to slow down, I have to slow down-down-down
I feel like someone tried (x2)

I know when you're good
04:49

Verse 1:
I know I can be rough sometimes
But my other face is tender
It's only when I see you cry
That I turn back to your butter
How come I let my face
Get all these harsh angles ?
How come ?
Pre-chorus:
Is it why we call this a crush ?
I guess it ain't the right way to blush
It's not that I fear you're leaving but still
Chorus:
It's just that
I know when you're good (x12)
Verse 2:
I wish when my lips were open wide
That it was always to greet yours
When my heart's so dry and chapped
I know your tears will pour and cure
Do I say what's inside of me ?
Can this flame burn or not ?
My upper body wants you safe and sound
Pre-chorus:
Is it why we call this a crush ?
I guess it ain't the right way to blush
It's not that I fear you're leaving but still
Guitar solo.
Chorus.

Off

Verse 1:
Han ! Open my eyes in a weird place
Although, I came here many times for decades
Things getting scarily funny in my mind Halloween
Feeling stuck and dizzy like I’m locked up in a hall of weed
Though, I see the smiles and now
I hear the laughs , oh no
Bring back the time I’m lost
Clear up the sight yo
The cones are creating the fog the phones are all missing the calls
We fall in love with anybody, drop down on the floor still handling the cup
Those lines and lights are now generating a new type of world
Now if you’re searching for me I’ll be in my cerebral bug
I’ll give a piece of advice to you just don’t try talk with me or anything else
Chorus:
‘Coz I am off right now
Maybe it will end up as a hound
All my friends are lying on the ground
And I just can’t find out if I’m just close to dead
Or in a sleepin’ state, but just don’t try to tchat
‘Coz I’m off right now
Verse 2:
I, I, I keep on dreaming alone
I know in less than an hour yeah I will have to atone
Mixing the liquids I found, tonight I did drink a tone
No particular reason but I’m meant to be the first one
The living room: trap, The toilet: trap, Swimming pool: trap
I’m about to faint: crap! What about the girl over there? Hack
Gonna beat the crap out of me, got a bit of wraps it’s all free
I’ll make it rain on everybody, gonna be so proud of me
I’m being taken down by a bunch of props here and there
I poured my glass of vodka on you but still, see if I care
Man I feel like I’m on a rope, and if it’s indeed what you’re hoping,
You’d better not try to get anything out of me
Chorus.
Verse 3:
Red stripes, new heights, man I never had sex before, that’s why I keep filling it more
Neighbors and cops knocking at the door, not a great timing you know that’s for sure,
Right now I ain’t on earth rather waving somewhere far offshore
Feeling the fluids slowly digging down to the main core
I’m like Snoop Dog and Wiz in the same body, breathing and smoking are all the same to me
Illuminati’s bass, I’m going to wastes
Bottles of champagne are all over the place
My so-called friends are just leaving on my facebook
A photo so all them bosses will remember my face
Took me a lot of time to finally realize, that I wasn’t able to draw a simple line
I shouldn’t have accepted to take in those tekpafs
Already drank ten, but where’s the other half?
Please, mister silhouette of policeman, why don’t you leave me alone?
Whatever you ask you know my memory’s gone
I’d rather be your enemy and sleep in jail tonight instead of talking to you and you why?
Chorus.

Rec !
Man, this shit's gonna turn you like the bad guy in Roger Rabbit, just sayin
Yeah warning you Squiller
Chorus:
Coz if you wanna try
Oh my, that shit's favorite dim
You will pass it if you're not blind
It makes you body cry
Then laught, up in your head you're fine
Then you're back to suicide
I'm just trying to make you high
So high, that pill's into mouth
Now spreading to your mind
But you cannot cannot draw back to being clean (no)
So I'll mark your body from head to feet
With my highlighter
Verse 1 :
That bean shit's gonna tear you up man
Wanna party on my cash ?
Just like me, just like me
Say you're painless when you crash ?
Just like me, just like me
Meanie meanie makes you cry
Just like me, just like me
Pero-pero in your stomach
Just like me, just like me
Something's wrong where you at ?
Chill like me, chill like me
Wanna taste a good rack ?
Just like me, just like me
Decibels are growing fast
Just like me, just like me
Your voice touch your ears from the back
Just like me, just like me
Man, I'm like a domino, nobody's using me correctly dog
I wasn't made just to fall and all
I got bubbles in my legs, twenty more shots and all my shit dead
Cut it with molly holly fuck, now the fucker cackling like a duck
I call for listen, a lesson to the bitches I got all around and my boss
Get out of town
I know who I pitch for now that I'm rich
I go to the beach, I fuck with a cat
Wait… since when these cats make that “woof”?
Speaking bat, can you hold that? I can throw the dat on the roof
I get a slap (sku), I take a nap (sku sku)
Wake up in a gag (sku sku sku), man… stop it… please… Sure no filter's on my snap?
Ske-ske-ske-skeletons in my closet, I go for a check and I close it
Then I light joint and I'm blowing on it, you'd rather take the shit I kof on
Chorus.
Verse 2:
Rolling again, no I'm no saint, know what I'm saying
That's some star shit
That shit's insane, go for a dance in a hot rain
Can it stop please?
Will I win it? It could take my life in addition
Man I got a hundred addictions
I go upstairs like I'm… on mission, I'll fly to the kitchen
I looked up in dictionary, stressed like I'm playing pictionnary
I get scared with all those toads wearing costars laughing wahahahaha
Chorus.

Offer me the keys to drive, you're puffing vapors of sun

You're sculpture in motion, with emotions, to use with caution
But I should care about my things

Your mouth is begging for oxygen but you know that I can't help
Staring at me like Olympia
Refrain :
Oh girls from around the world, come here and observe when Olympia is shaking like that
I must be a hound but I'd claim myself king if I saw again her body shaking like that

She's got me saying : Oh oh oh
Turn it baby (x3)
Verse 2:
She ain't my girl, she ain't my girl but I wish she'd be
Even close to me she be missing
Man all my paper can't buy me a mere « maybe »
She ain't my pearl, she ain't my pearl, yeah that's a jolie Jolenne for ya
We're all the wagon she's taking her coal from, on here way
I'd buy her any shit, for a day, or a year
Aren't you tired all your sharpened arrows miss the target ?
Even if your eyes are saying « girl I hit the market »
What ? You want a car ? A glass at the bar ? Should I buy a ticket to Qatar ?
Babe, I could be your salt and pepper, presents for prison, you're my first papercut, I pay it's pleasant
Picking in pockets just for the sake of seeing you pleasured
I could let my stomach hurt for fur, I'd fight a hurd
But I heard you learnt how to take care of yourself, fine, no misleading her
Cash is paper, jewels are rocks, never gonna get your credit card to talk, give it up
Pre-chorus.
Refrain.
Bridge :
Ouh she's coming at me, but never for the first time
We kiss but our lips never touch babe
And now, if I laid a touch on you, I would lose contact
Your belly contracts
Pre-chorus.
Refrain.
Outro :
And I don't know what she wants
But I could get her anything, anything
I can't get no answers
Man out, giving up
