Calm & Courage #5
I’m exhausted, in a good way. I am learning to rest on purpose. rest without worry. I can feel my body tension finally ease. for me it’s in my mid-upper back. releasing tension there has been a struggle. I have accomplished. I may rest.

[soft, acoustic guitar melody with a mellow and soothing rhythm]
Mm-hmm.
[spoken] Good Philosophy.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
And I’ve been looking for someone to put up with my bullshit. I can’t even leave my bedroom so I keep pouring and I ain’t seen no light of day since. Well, that’s not important, it’s been long.
And I was feeling weird near me. My homie sipped Houston cars and clothes, thought I was winning, you knew I was losing. He told me to wake up on my clock. Always stays on snoozing.
I’m done.
So we stay alone and find peace in knowing.
Ain’t no, it’s broken.
But here’s the hoping show. No emotion against the coding, just act as hard as you can. You don’t need a friend. Boy, you’re the man.
And I’ve been looking for someone that I can buy my drugs from. It seems like every plug we need’s to Utah became Mormons. Drought comes on around, feels like I have no one to depend on. So, but.
I had 80 beers on Tuesday night, I had nothing to do with it. I put on a little dwight and sang a happy tune and lit a cigarette, stepped out the door, had an appearance, drank more.
To each their own and find peace in knowing ain’t always broken, but here’s to hoping.
Show no emotion against your coding. Just got as hard as you can.
You don’t need a friend, boy, you’re the man.
[smooth, mid-tempo beat with a blend of dreamy guitar riffs and steady percussion]
We couldn’t turn around, told me we were upside down.
I’ll be the bad guy now, but no, I ain’t too proud.
I couldn’t be there even when I tried. You don’t believe it. We do this every time.
Seasons change and our love went cold. Feed the flame, cause we can’t let it go. Run away, but we’re running in circles, run away, run away.
I dare you to do so. I’m waiting on you again, so I don’t take the blame. Run away, but we’re running in circles. Run away, run away, run away. I got a feeling that it’s time to let go.
I said, So, I knew that this was new from the get go. you thought that it was special, special.
But it was just a sex show, a sex show, and I still hear the echoes.
I got a feeling that it’s time to let it go, let it go. Seasons change and our love went cold. Feed the flame, cause we can’t let it go, run away, but we’re running in circles, run away, run away.
I dare you to do something, I’m waiting on you again, so I don’t take the blame.
Run away, but we’re running in circles, run away, run away, run away.
Maybe you don’t understand what I’m going through.
It’s only me what you got to lose.
Make up your mind, tell me, What are you gonna do? It’s only me. let it go.
Seasons change and our love went cold. Feed the flag, cause we can’t let it go.
Run away, but we’re running in circles.
Run away, run away. I dare you to go soldier. I’m waiting on you again, so I don’t take the blame. Run away, but we’re running in circles. Run away, run away, run away.
[groovy, upbeat rhythm with funky basslines, shimmering synths, and smooth guitar riffs]
Sinking right into the crimson cloud, waiting for this thing to spit me out, I’m swimming in my head.
Mouth so dry, I could crack my tongue, jaw hanging like an accordion. Let’s hope nobody. Still, it was a different state of mind.
A different state of mind.
A different state.
Give me a reason and I will hold your strawberry-flavored lightning bolt. Like everybody else, I can’t reach the counting, but I feel tall. You’re standing naked and you’re over-rossed, and I’m someone else. It was a different state of mind.
A different state of mind, a different state of mind, a different state of mind.
She knows what I mean, she tells me to stay here, She knows what I mean, that’s where I’m.
A different state of mind, a different state of mind, a different state of mind.
It was a different state of mind.
Oh, it was a different state of mind.
It was a different state of mind.
A different state of mind.
If it’s stated.
[mellow with a stripped-down acoustic feel]
Baby, take off your cool. I wanna see you. I wanna see you.
Baby. don’t be so cool. I wanna see you, I wanna see you.
Baby, take off your cool.
I want to get to know you.
Okay, cool.
[soft, soulful melody with gentle guitar]
Don’t you tell me that it wasn’t meant to be?
Call it grits, call it destiny.
Just because it won’t come easily.
Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.
We had a good thing going lately. Mine might not have always been a fairytale, but, you know, and I know that they ain’t real. I’ll take the truth over the story.
You might’ve tried my patience greatly, but I’m not about to let us fail. I’ll be the wind picking up your sail, but won’t you do something for me? Don’t you tell me that it wasn’t meant to be?
Call it wits, call it destiny.
Just because it won’t come easily.
Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.
I’m coming, I’m going inside out, I’m back to front, old tan, gold and messy. That’s how we’ve been and we’ll always be.
And that’s alright with me. Don’t you tell me that it wasn’t meant to to be?
Call it quits, call it destiny.
Just because it won’t come easily.
Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try, try, try, just because it won’t come easily, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.
And just because it won’t come easily doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try. Try, try. Just because it won’t come easily doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.
[mellow, jazzy vibe with soulful vocals]
The laws and rules that are put in place mean nobody will help you, even face to face.
Drop something on the floor, pick it up yourself.
All these pressures at the door, how’s my mental health?
Makes you think, makes you stop for a second in the moment, makes you wonder if walking over three drains is an omen.
When lately I’ve been feeling out of place, cannot move to outer space.
Want to catch the first ship to the moon? I think I like it there.
No stress just stars up there. Maybe I’d move into a house with a pool.
Bring my mates up with me so we can be relieved, cause I’ve tried my best and hope’s still a mess.
So to the moon I lean. Lately, I’ve been feeling out of place.
Can I move to outer space?
I wanna catch the first ship to the moon, I think I like it there.
No stress, just stars up there. Ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh.
[gentle, acoustic ballad]
Daydreamer, sitting on the seat, soaking up the sunshine. He is a real lover of making up the past and feeling up his girl like he’s never felt a figure before.
A jaw dropper looks good when he walks is the subject of their talk. He would be hard to chase, but good to catch, and he could change the world with his hands behind his back. Oh ♪.
You can find him sitting on your doorstep.
Waiting for a surprise?
And he will feel.
Light. He’s been there for hours.
And you can tell that he’ll be there for life.
Daydreamer with eyes that make you melt, he lends his coat for shelter. Plus, he’s there for you and it shouldn’t be, but he stays all the same, waits for you, then sees you through.
There’s no way I could describe him. What I’ll say is just what I’m hoping for.
But I will find him sitting on my doorstep.
Waiting for a surprise
And he will feel like he’s been there for hours
And I can tell that he’ll be there for life, and I can tell that he’ll be there for life.
[soulful, emotional ballad with a powerful voice]
Found myself today singing out loud your name, you said, I’m crazy. if I am, I’m crazy for you.
Sometimes sittin’ in the dark, wishin’ you were here turns me crazy, but it’s you who.
Makes me lose my head and every time I’m meant to be actin sensible you drift into.
My head and turn me into a crumbling food. Tell me to run and I’ll race. If you want me to stop, I’ll freeze, and if you want me gonna leave, just hold me closer, baby.
Crazy for you.
Crazy for you.
Lately, with this state I’m in, I can’t help myself but spin, I wish you’d come over, send me spinning closer to you.
My, oh my, how my blood boils. The sweetest for you.
Strips me down fair and get me into my favorite mood.
I keep on trying fighting these feelings away, but the more I do, the crazier I turn into.
Pacing floors and opening doors, hoping he’ll walk through and save me, boy, because I’m.
Crazy for you.
Crazy for you.
[laid-back, reggae-inspired beat creating a relaxed yet groovy feel]
Ladies and gentlemen alike, hold up your hands, hold them high. We’ve got the ends, we’ve got the night. We got a legacy to write, Let’s have it right, let’s have it right. We paid our dues to have it tonight.
Remember the days we really had to fight?
So hold up your hands, hold them high. We got the ends, we got the night, we got our friends, we got about this like we should, ladies and gentlemen alike, ladies and gentlemen alike.
We’ve got our destinies to write. What a celebratory time.
Ladies and gentlemen alike, ladies and gentlemen alike.
These are the best days of our lives, what a celebratory time.
The young gentlemen are stars, pulling up in lovely cars, running up the tab in bars, and so they should. The young women are so blind, double working over time so their Instagram can shine and dine with crooks. We got memories of time on a dark floor, living life. We ain’t got no shame to hide. Nonchalant in truth or lie right now, we could live in lies, just cause we could. Yo, ladies, and.
These are the best days of my life, ladies and gentlemen alike, ladies and gentlemen.
Alike?
We’ve got our destinies to write. What a celebratory time, ladies and gentlemen alike, ladies, and.
Gentlemen alike.
These are the best days of my life, what a celebratory time.
I need some gravy on my potato, all the richards and the venison.
The bank all the days on.
Ladies and gentlemen, I need some gravy on my potato.
Venezuela.
What a celebratory time, ladies and gentlemen. I need some gravy on my potato. What a celebratory time, Venezuela.
Can’t you get one of these ones in there as well?
[mellow guitar strumming and a laid-back rhythm]
Stuck in the past? Yeah, my heart don’t beat that fast anymore.
Ooh, baby, I find it funny how nobody acts the same as before.
Oh, darling.
Now it’s all right. I got my mind off you.
It’s been a long time I’m coming, I know it’s true.
Ooh baby.
I’m holding in, holding on.
I miss my friends, well, at least I miss one.
Ooh baby.
It all depends, everybody’s in it, all for themselves.
Oh, darling, now it’s alright. I got my mind off you.
I got my mind, it’s been a long time coming, I know it’s true.
Oh baby, oh baby, I’m holdin in, holdin on.
I’m holdin in, holdin on.
I got my mind off you, I got my mind. It’s been a long time coming, I know it’s true.
You do, oh, baby.
I got the good, I got the.
Good, I’m holding in, holding.
On, I am.
Holding.
In holding.
On.
Holding in, holding on.
[upbeat, with catchy guitar riffs and groovy melody]
I backed my car into a cop car the other day, where he just drove off. Sometimes life’s a case. I ran my mouth off a bit too much. Oh, what did I say?
Well, you just laughed it off, it was all okay.
And we ́ll all float on okay, and we ́ll all float on okay, and we ́ll all float on okay, and we’ll all float on anyway. Well, I bet you Macon took every last dime with that scam. It was worth it just to learn some slight of hand. Bad news comes, don’t you worry. The Huntin went ahead. Good news will work its way to all them plans.
We both got fired on exactly the same day.
Well, we’ll float on. good news is on the way. Well, we’ll float on. good news is on the way.
And we’ll all float on, okay?
And we’ll all float on, okay, and we’ll all float on okay, and we’ll all float on, alright.
Already, we’ll all float on now, don’t you worry.
We’ll all float on alright already, we’ll all float on alright.
Don’t worry, we’ll all float on.
All right, all right, and we’ll all float on all right already.
We’ll all float on, all right, don’t worry.
Even if things end up a bit too heavy, we’ll all float on.
All right, all ready, we’ll all float on.
All right, all ready, we’ll all float on.
No kidding, don’t worry, we’ll all float on.
Even if things get heavy, we’ll all float on.
All right, I’m ready, we’re all flown on.
All right, don’t you worry, we’re all flown on. All right, we’re all flown on.
[moody, ambient synths and soft percussion]
You don’t belong to me, wish that you would be mine.
Wish that you would be mine. I’ve been getting lost in translation, trouble keeping up communication. We were having fun now. I can’t wait to end. Feels like I’m the only one I’m sick of playing.
Baby.
Why you gotta keep me hating?
It’s like an apple of temptation.
I’ve been getting lost in translation, trouble keeping up communication. We were having fun. Now we’re trying to get out of here. Sometimes it feels like I’m the only one that’s sick of playin’.
Shit.
I’m tired of people tellin me to be petty.
Shit hey, tryin to light the fire with no flame, hey.
Tryin to figure out what you’re sayin to me?
I wish I didn’t need you to play.
Do it to me one more time, do it to me one more time.
Do it to me one more. I’ve been getting lost in translation, trouble keeping up communication.
We were having fun. Now, I can’t wait to be found.
It feels like I’m the only one that’s sick of playing. I’ve been getting lost in translation, trouble keeping up communication.
We were having fun. Now I can’t wait to be found. It feels like I’m the only one that’s sick of playing.
Feel it till I die, baby, don’t tell me one more time, baby.
[mellow, folk-inspired melody with gentle guitar strumming and smooth, soothing vocals]
People come and go, they’re all the same. It seems. Got too many holes where love used to be can’t be good for me, but I don’t like to be lonely. Storm hit its house, missed me by a couple. I was almost in the mouth of trouble. I was excited.
I’m gonna be afraid of something again.
You either stick around till things fall apart, or get the hell out of the early wonder. Who could’ve been? I’m not saying I have a preference.
The worst thing you could do is leave. When I tell you just go, we both know I don’t want you to leave me alone.
The worst thing you could do is leave. When I tell you, just go, don’t listen to me, don’t listen to me, no.
It’s not your job to apologize for things that hurt me, though I have expected to know what will fuckin’ know they will make me strong?
And I’m tired as it’s showing I wanna change my temperament and change my mind, but it’s hard to do when I’m settling on something.
And is that all we’ll be going? I need a sense of urgency that I hope you got if you call me back, even when I do not do.
The worst thing you could do is leave. When I tell you just go, we both know I don’t want you to leave me alone.
The worst thing you could do is leave. When I tell you, just go, don’t listen to me, don’t listen to me, don’t listen to me, don’t listen to me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
