Sinner 02:44
Trouble finds me wherever I am Trouble finds me when I'm caught in a jam The trouble of the damned Trouble here I am The Devil made me do it this I know The devil made me do it for my soul The devil has got a hold The Devil won't let go Lord knows why I do it and I'd do it again Lord knows why I do it, it's the love of Sin Lord knows it never ends Lord knows I am ruined I'm a sinner Winner, winner, chicken dinner I'm a Sinner

Black cat, has done crossed your path Black cat, you can hear her laugh Black Cat now there's no turning back. Soon you will be owned by her. Black cat, she curls up on your lap. Black cat, you're caught in her trap. Her purr lulls you in like a sap. Soon you will be owned by her. And you don't care if her love is real. you just love the way that she feels and now you are owned by her. Black cat you're caught between her paws. Black cat plays with you till she's bored. Black cat spits out your bones on the floor. For Now you are no more.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained Blessed with heartache, tempered by pain There's no reward, with no risk Take a swing and pray you don't miss This is your moment It's all or nothing All or nothing, all or nothing It’s all or nothing at all You feel it deep, deep in your bones Take the bet, there’s no regrets No one can do this for you it's all up to you and you alone This is your moment to shine

Buggin' Out 03:08
Some say love is a curse Some say for better or worse Some say in sickness health Some say learn to love yourself But I don't know if love is all you need Some say marry for love And leave it all to God above Some say marry for gold But I don't know if I'm sold But I won't say no if you want to buy my love Some say love is a key That unlocks your heart Some say bury your heart deep So it won't be torn apart But I don't know if I should just hide my love away i don’t what love is all about all i know is i am bugging out

Underdog 02:45
It's not the size of the dog in the fight it's the size of the fight in the dog I've been beaten Kicked when I’m down Told I would always lose I’m an underdog Takes a lot of grit to rise to the top Hard Work beats talent every time Well I've been hit I've been spat upon Told I was nothing I am an underdog An underdog, a mongrel mutt Scars are as long as my memory holds on I am stronger than you think I can take it to the brink swim i never sink For I am an underdog My bite is worse than my bark And I won't go gentle into the dark I will fight with all my heart take no shit, I never quit Use my wits and let it rip I am an underdog A flea bitten, salty, no good underdog

Sometimes you have to walk away Just to live and fight another day No matter how much you push And how much you bleed Is the thing you want Really what you need You can chase all your everlovin’ dreams Trail of broken hearts in the wake of your schemes No matter how fast you race And how much you speed Is the thing you want really what you need This wisdom comes from years of scars Tattoos remind you of who you are Coz the reflection that you see Asks, “are you truly free?" Is the thing you want Truly what you need? Is the thing you want The lock or the key?

My first kiss tasted of cigarettes and bubblegum I was dumb to think you'd be my only one My only one My fifth love smelled so sweet of cinnamon and frangipanis The way she knew i was leaving her so damn strange so uncanny Love is like being struck by lightning And i don't know how many times i can go through this Again and again (just make it end) My thirteenth lover had a wooden leg that was polished pine We lost touch after her father died I really hope she's doing fine My latest amor just walked out the door Yelling I can't do this anymore always pointing out my flaws The cat ran away too cause you snore

Aint it a shame Cause my heart still beats for you My heart beats the truth Aint it a shame Do you still feel the same When you call my name There's no one to blame Aint it a shame Now you’re on that plane Feeling all that pain This aint no game Aint it a shame Aint it a shame Cause my heart still beats for you My heart beats the truth Aint it a shame Holding on to the past Trying to make it last When it’s time to let go Like that empty whisky glass
9.
I've learned to keep myself to myself Cause I know you're love is bad for my health You're my last cigarette You're my last cigarette When the smoke it clears, I'm gone Baby I’m Gone,gone, gone I've learned love’s a game you can't win Play the cards you're dealt at your own speed But always keep an ace hidden up your sleeve Best believe when it's time to leave I'm already gone, gone, gone Gone, gone, gone I've learned to hold my secrets to my chest Like I'm holding on to my last breath You're love’s my last regret You're love’s my last regret When I breathe out, I'm gone Baby I’m gone
