1.	Too Much 01:51	lyrics	buy track
Well, In another life you were mine, Oh nevermind I struggle just to write the fucking line Oh, nevermind time I try, Yeah, nevermind time I try.. To find the words to say, It's such a rush too much, I can't contain my shame, I can't face my front, Now run along, baby Don't leave me cold baby.. Chorus (you said) It's all too much (x8)
2.	Better Ft. Essilfie 03:34	lyrics	buy track
Tie me down Don’t let me go Clip my wings Keep me home (x2) And now I’m Stuck in my addiction Can’t deny, It’s a hell of a height Take me away To places, I have never seen I need the escape Onto better things
3.	As Usual Ft. NINE99 (Extended) 01:55	lyrics	buy track
Why can't we? Go somewhere far away I'm trynna see, In a whole new different type of way Oh can't you see I'm feeling stuck One more time, darling I'll try my luck And she got me like Ay (x3) NINE99: As Usual [Extended] Verse [NINE99] Solitude and preference with the man Universe Travels back and forth to worlds Man I need to placed way beyond these uncertainties and live the distaste The dictators of other lives I claim my escape Finding free, finding free Bygones be, bygones be the toll of the captives, and where lies the peace with the piece in the lips of the mind? Safe thoughts. I do need to be captured.

about

When I think about how my life was going to pan out. Where I am now never quite made it into the shotlist. I was supposed to graduate from university holding a degree in law. And was probably going to find a kickass job somewhere nice that paid me well enough to surround myself with all the things I want.

What happened was that I did graduate (barely) with that degree but the reality I came out to meet couldn’t have been further from the dreams I had as a child. I was depressed, I was an addict. I was ungrateful and I wasted a lot of that time away. I dealt with suicidal feelings addiction as I unearthed a lot of trauma that I had to face, process, and worth through in order. I also held on to a lot of unhealthy behaviors and relationships. Never mind the fact that I don't want to be a lawyer anymore. I just want to live.

In the full sense of the word.

I am still trying to fully embrace what that word means.
That’s why the project isn’t supposed to make you feel like I’ve figured everything out. I’m still on my way.

And you’re welcome to join me.
