[Intro] Yeah Uh-huh Look at the bowl Look at the shine (Too much) It’s actually disrespectful Let’s go
[Chorus] Way too smooth It’s bothering my spirit How it slide off the silver like that (Slide slide) No resistance No texture Just a straight line of silk It’s too perfect I don’t trust it (Nah I don't trust it)
[Verse 1] Ordered the best Expected some body Expected a little bit of weight But this is like water in a suit (So slick) I’m used to the grind I’m used to the grit This consistency is making me tense Where are the bubbles Where is the skin It’s flatter than my competition’s bank account (Facts) I’m sitting in the booth Ice on my neck Looking at a dessert that’s trying too hard It’s too uniform Give me a flaw Give me something to chew on (Please)
[Chorus] Way too smooth It’s bothering my spirit How it slide off the silver like that (Slide slide) No resistance No texture Just a straight line of silk It’s too perfect I don’t trust it (Nah I don't trust it)
[Verse 2] Sent it back twice Chef looking confused I told him it’s too effortless Like a ghost in a cup (Spooky) I need that friction I need that bounce This is just a liquid identity crisis I’m the boss of the table I dictate the chew And this pudding is moving too fast for the room (Too fast) Slow it down Add a lump Add a bump Keep it real for once
[Bridge] Spoon up (Dip) Spoon down (Slide) No grip (Where it go) No hold (Gone) It’s too slick It’s too clean It’s a glitch in the dream (Wait)
[Chorus] Way too smooth It’s bothering my spirit How it slide off the silver like that (Slide slide) No resistance No texture Just a straight line of silk It’s too perfect I don’t trust it (Nah I don't trust it)
[Outro] I’m actually annoyed Pay the tab We leaving Keep the pudding It’s too much for me (Too smooth) Yeah Out (So slick)
Sovereign Lean
Lyrics
[Intro] (Check the weight) (Feel the pressure) Yeah
[Verse 1] Cashmere rubbing on the rusted pole Shoulder checked my velvet Moving like you lost your soul Kingpin in a metal box Transit for the highly refined Check the stitching on my lapel Hand-spun lace, perfectly aligned You out here playing bumper cars I am occupying the throne Wool blend against your cheap jacket Territory that I strictly own No words exchanged just cold air Pressure on my spine is heavy I handle business with a stare Stay steady like a loaded levy (Stay steady now) The train car is my boardroom You are just a temp hire Watch how I clear the room Setting frozen lungs on fire
[Chorus] I don’t move I just lean (I just lean) Heavy on your lack of grace Staying right here in between (In between) Reclaiming every inch of space No apology required from you (Not from you) Victory is silent and true (Silent and true)
[Verse 2] Contracts signed in the quiet dark Looking at your rough edges Leaving a permanent luxury mark Mink oil on the leather hide I am ice within the heat Taking back the sovereign side Never admit a small defeat You pushed a literal mountain today Felt the avalanche of my disdain Move your weight the other way I am the master of the train Specific cuts on the silk vest Tailored for the heavy impact Put your manners to the test Breaking every social contract (Break it down) Doors slide open like a vault I pivot on a custom heel This isn't even my own fault Just showing you how power feels (How it feels)
[Chorus] I don’t move I just lean (I just lean) Heavy on your lack of grace Staying right here in between (In between) Reclaiming every inch of space No apology required from you (Not from you) Victory is silent and true (Silent and true)
[Outro] Six inches of my own world (My own world) Back against the velvet wall Banner of the king unfurled (I won't fall) Keep your hands to yourself (To yourself) Top shelf (Top shelf) Leaving you at the station (Gone) End of the transaction (Gone) Yeah (Lean back)
The Score
Lyrics
[Chorus] I’m down bad looking at the score Only ten hearts and I need more (I need way more) I spent three racks just for the view Now I’m in the basement feeling blue (So blue) I’m the king but the crowd is gone Waiting for the wave to come along (Where they at?) I’m down bad looking at the score Only ten hearts and I need more
[Verse 1] I hit the mirror in the new designer Looking like a star or a heavy liner (Straight fire) I put it out there for the world to see But nobody is checking for a kid like me Wait Maybe the timing was a little off Maybe they didn't like the way I talk I’m refreshing the page till my thumb goes numb Feeling like a ghost feeling really dumb (So dumb)
[Chorus] I’m down bad looking at the score Only ten hearts and I need more (I need way more) I spent three racks just for the view Now I’m in the basement feeling blue (So blue) I’m the king but the crowd is gone Waiting for the wave to come along (Where they at?) I’m down bad looking at the score Only ten hearts and I need more
[Verse 2] I see everybody else getting all the love While I’m stuck here pushing and a shove (Why them?) Is it the hair or the way I stand I thought I had the whole world in my hand Now I’m acting out like a villain does Just to get a little bit of that buzz (Give it to me) I’ll take the hate if it brings the noise I’m tired of playing with these little toys Yeah
[Chorus] I’m down bad looking at the score Only ten hearts and I need more (I need way more) I spent three racks just for the view Now I’m in the basement feeling blue (So blue) I’m the king but the crowd is gone Waiting for the wave to come along (Where they at?) I’m down bad looking at the score Only ten hearts and I need more
[Outro] Refresh (One more) Refresh (Give me more) Just one more (Where they at?) Still ten (Man) Still ten (I'm out)
The Seam
Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse 1] The thread is sharp It cuts into the bone A heavy weight of wool That does not know my name (It does not know) This weave is cold A skin that will not breathe Against the midnight air
[Chorus] The world is built on glass This shape is not my own It is a small rebellion To say the stars are wrong (So wrong) To say the light is thin
[Verse 2] Cruising through the black The collar bites my neck I blame the silver moon For how this velvet sits (It sits like lead) A predator in lace The road is long and wide The fabric is too tight
[Bridge] Take the needle back Unstitch the plan you made (Unstitch) Take the pattern home I am not this frame (Not this frame)
[Outro] It does not suit the night (The night) The world is thin (Thin) Falling through the seams (Falling)
Pure Action
Lyrics
[Intro] Yeah You hear that It is time to translate the noise Let us go
[Verse 1] Standing in the lobby with a new suit He talks about a vision for the quarter Mentions synergy to move the needle forward I am watching how the light hits granite Filtering the noise like a master key Turning every sentence into pure action He says we need to circle back later I am already ten steps ahead of him Mapping out the route to the penthouse While he reads a script about the mission
[Pre-Chorus] Eyes on the prize not the plan Hands to the sky ready to jump Give me the beat and let me loose Turning the talk into a lifestyle
[Chorus] I speak a different language (Clear) I hear the win inside the noise (Win) Hands up to the ceiling (High) Taking over every single world tonight I speak a different language (Clear) I hear the win inside the noise (Win) Hands up to the ceiling (High) Taking over every single world tonight
[Verse 2] From London to the coast of California He says leverage the assets for the team I just see the podium and the trophies Turning every question into a victory lap He wants a deep dive on the strategy I am already boarding the private flight Touch down in Tokyo for the evening Success is the only thing I recognize He talks about a five year projection I am living in the moment right now
[Pre-Chorus] Eyes on the prize not the plan Hands to the sky ready to jump Give me the beat and let me loose Turning the talk into a lifestyle
[Chorus] I speak a different language (Clear) I hear the win inside the noise (Win) Hands up to the ceiling (High) Taking over every single world tonight I speak a different language (Clear) I hear the win inside the noise (Win) Hands up to the ceiling (High) Taking over every single world tonight
[Bridge] I don't need a manual for this I just need the green light to go Break the signal down to its essence Watch me turn the fog into a map (Watch me go) (Watch me move) We taking it global
[Chorus] I speak a different language (Clear) I hear the win inside the noise (Win) Hands up to the ceiling (High) Taking over every single world tonight
[Outro] Just keep moving No more questions International (Global) We taking over (Yeah) (The win) (The win) Clear
The Wrong Transaction
Lyrics
[Intro] (Check the change) (Cold metal)
[Verse 1] Pacing the pavement in these Italian lambskin loafers The humidity is thick like a heavy wool coat My throat is parched demanding immediate tribute A single dollar bill crisp as a fresh contract I approach the glass box my silent associate Scanning the ranks of sugar and artificial dye Looking for the clear the pure the essential Everything in its place until the rhythm breaks I reached for the high ground but hit the basement A lapse in judgment at the point of purchase My finger slipped across the plastic interface (Wrong move)
[Chorus] The machine took the cut but delivered the insult Finger pressed the wrong digit on the keypad Bright orange syrup where the water should be A failed transaction in the middle of the block (Mistakes cost) (Wrong choice)
[Verse 2] I watch the plastic bottle tumble into the bin A hollow thud echoing like a door slamming shut Seventy-five cents of pure treachery and red dye I do not even like the smell of citrus and carbonation It sits in my hand heavy with my own failure I should kick the glass until it spiders and cracks Demand a refund for this lack of professional loyalty But the silk on my back says keep moving forward Maintain the composure of a man with options One dollar down a minor loss in the empire A bad investment sitting in a pool of condensation (Let it go)
[Outro] (Leave it on the curb) (Keep walking) (Next time) (The price of a mistake)
Nothing Today
Lyrics
[Intro] (Ooh) (Ooh) (Stay right here) (Stay right here)
[Verse 1] Gravity pulls us down We like the weight of it The sky moves fast above We are staying still The floor is a wide sea We are anchored deep
[Chorus] I do not want to do anything today (Nothing today) I do not want to do anything today (Let it go) We are the kings of this room Watching the light move slow I do not want to do anything today (Nothing today)
[Verse 2] No plans for the open road No place we need to be The air is warm and thick We breathe it in and out Let the world turn around We are staying out of sight
[Chorus] I do not want to do anything today (Nothing today) I do not want to do anything today (Let it go) We are the kings of this room Watching the light move slow I do not want to do anything today (Nothing today)
[Bridge] Let it pass us by (Let it pass) Let it pass us by (Let it pass) We are exactly where we are (Stay) We are exactly where we are (Stay)
[Chorus] I do not want to do anything today (Nothing today) I do not want to do anything today (Let it go) We are the kings of this room Watching the light move slow I do not want to do anything today (Nothing today)
[Outro] (Nothing today) (Stay right here) (Nothing at all) (Nothing at all) (Ooh) (Ooh)
The Great Unbinding
Lyrics
[Intro] (Slowly drifting) (Let it all go)
[Verse 1] The rotation of the earth feels personal tonight Discarding the labels they taped to my jacket I am an architect of a silent uprising Building temples out of the dark air The friction of the day melts away I am a passenger on a velocity of my own My shapes are shifting from solid to liquid Breaking the code of the waking hours (Breaking the code) My spirit rotates on a heavy axis Defying the gravity of the ticking clock I manifest a kingdom in this silence The rhythm of my pulse is a drum Fast and frantic like a bird in flight
[Chorus] The weight pulls the anchor down deep Floating in a sea of thick vibrations Total release before the sun climbs This is the moment I finally own (I finally own)
[Verse 2] My muscles are heavy like damp earth Plotting the liberation of my kin In the space between a blink and a sigh The stars are just dust on my window The urgency of the morning is a ghost I am a giant in the landscape of rest My breath is a tide receding from shore (Coming home) The planetary alignment is finally correct No more burdens for the flesh to carry I am reading the maps of the stars Finding the path that leads back to me The struggle is a memory of a wave Losing its strength against the sand
[Chorus] The weight pulls the anchor down deep Floating in a sea of thick vibrations Total release before the sun climbs This is the moment I finally own (I finally own)
[Verse 3] The vibration of the synth is my skin Closing the door on the demands of men The internal journey has reached the station I am the master of this velvet void Everything is soft and beautifully vast Surrendering the crown to the pillow (Surrender)
[Outro] (Floating away) (Safe and sound) (The quiet wins) (Let go)
Pogo Stick Logic
Lyrics
[Intro] (Yeah) (Haha) (One, two, three, go) (Woo)
[Chorus] I am bouncing like a pogo stick Higher than the summer trees You stayed quiet on your end So I am dancing with the breeze (yeah) Blue raspberry on my tongue Everything is tasting sweet I got sneakers with the lights Watch me walking down the street (pop)
[Verse 1] I was waiting for a word Empty space was all I found Now I’m in the backyard Doing circles on the ground (spin) Got a pocket full of snacks And a shiny plastic ring I’m the king of the neighborhood I can do most anything (woo) No more looking at the door No more wondering why I’m a giant helium balloon Floating way up in the sky (up)
[Chorus] I am bouncing like a pogo stick Higher than the summer trees You stayed quiet on your end So I am dancing with the breeze (yeah) Blue raspberry on my tongue Everything is tasting sweet I got sneakers with the lights Watch me walking down the street (pop)
[Verse 2] I went to the arcade shop Won a thousand yellow tickets You are being very boring Hiding over in the thickets (boring) I’m a rocket on a mission Heading for a candy star I don’t need a fancy driver I got a fast pedal car (vroom) Life is like a bonus level I just got a brand new life I am happy as a clam Cutting cake without a knife
[Chorus] I am bouncing like a pogo stick Higher than the summer trees You stayed quiet on your end So I am dancing with the breeze (yeah) Blue raspberry on my tongue Everything is tasting sweet I got sneakers with the lights Watch me walking down the street (pop)
[Outro] (Boing boing) (I’m out of here) (Catch ya later) (Yeah) (Higher than a kite) (Bye bye) (Yay)
Quiet Rebellion
Lyrics
[Intro] (Yeah) (Stay right here) (Don't move)
[Verse 1] The calendar is screaming at the wall But I don't hear a single thing My manager called twice before the sun I let the silence do the heavy lifting Everyone is chasing something in the distance They got weights on their ankles I got my feet on the mahogany table You tell me I’m losing the race But I’m the one who bought the track Why would I run when I own the grass It’s a different kind of power Staying exactly where I am (Exactly where I am)
[Chorus] This is my quiet rebellion Doing nothing is the highest price I’m spending hours like they’re water And I’m not even thirsty Just letting the clock breathe (Just breathe) (Let it breathe)
[Verse 2] I see the hustle in your eyes It looks like a fever You’re counting minutes like they’re silver coins I’m throwing mine out the window The fabric of this chair is my sanctuary Expensive patience That’s the real status symbol (Real status)
[Chorus] This is my quiet rebellion Doing nothing is the highest price I’m spending hours like they’re water And I’m not even thirsty Just letting the clock breathe
[Bridge] They want the sweat They want the struggle They want the noise But I’m giving them the void I’m not lazy I’m just finished I’m not tired I’m just satisfied Watch me sit still while the world breaks Watch me stay calm while the floor shakes I’m the king of the waiting room (I'm the king) (I'm the king)
[Chorus] This is my quiet rebellion Doing nothing is the highest price I’m spending hours like they’re water And I’m not even thirsty Just letting the clock breathe
[Outro] Go ahead and work I’ll be here when you get back Or maybe I won’t (Maybe I won't) It doesn't really matter (Doesn't matter) Slow down (Slow)
