No Rush

[v1]
We break loose off a New York City stoop
And our eyes are wide but hanging low
Don’t believe everything that you read
Don’t ever do just what your told
We slink around until the heat dies down
In those moments, we just lie awake
Never knew what this was coming too
And I guess that was our only mistake
[chorus]
Baby, we're in no rush to get home [3x]
Without you
[v2]
Broke down, thousand miles out of town
And we take it as a sign to leave
We push through spite the altitude
The pressure makes it hard to breathe
Riding on a horse, gotten running off the porch
Guess we must have tripped some lamas
Sip a brew while the panic ensues
For a laugh, could you tell me the harm?
[chorus]
[v3]
As we traverse these summer days and these winter nights
Bloodstreaming in these ice cold veins, the very force of life
Stepping over still warm corpses once the cobra bites
The sights to see are secondary to a lovers light
And it come in all colors, I’m under the spell of her wonders
I give her the best, [give her the best], give her the best that I could muster
Utter the word, I’m under the covers / She under my skin, my heart is drummer
Banging away like it was thunder / I go a hundred miles a minute
Never come until she finished / ain’t no scrub like dirty dishes
Always clouded in a suspicion in the shade of eucalyptus
My one and only, my wifey, girlfriend, and mistress
Doe-ce-doe around the unsuspecting competition
The tip of my tongue is numb from the weight of all these well-wishes
I’m eagerly awaiting of her punching of my ticket
To ride, decide, no time to waste
She’ll be gone in a moment if I don’t give chase!

Au Café

[v1]
She’s over in the corner like a barista I’m sitting in the chair just trying to get my bearings
The milk froths up my heart rate pumps her feet they scurry across the floor she glistens in the light like her earrings
Unable to speak my mouth is filled with cement and marbles so I can’t admit a thing
Until the cluster of the substance leaves my body and my body starts to feel the words that I bring
I said “I know there’s lots of speculations around these parts about the way I’m feeling
So let me tell you straight so there’ll be no more debate about the emotions I have rising to the ceiling”
I said, “lady I know you’re being occupied by another who’s a brother in my personal life
But with the feeling of sublime you bring me all the time I can’t help but do what feels right
I’m not trying to freak you out but I know without a doubt that with you I can be me the best
So now I’ve said my spiel I want you to say what is the deal and get everything you feel off your chest”
[Chorus]
She said she’s “crazy for my love” and I wanna give it to her (x4)
[v2]
Perspiration
Hands clench into fists
Admiration
Shiver as I crack my wrists
Hypertension
My blood pulsates fast
Five months pension
I’m not sure this cash will last
Now her breathing is heavy it’s burdened with lead
I’m exasperated and can’t believe what came out of my head
But with a look in her I noticed a solacing gleam
The true feeling behind the clouded fact of the means
[pre-chorus]
She swallows all her thoughts
Reciprocation is what she wants then asks me what I wanted to do
And I pondered it for a minute or two
Then I said one word and that was “you”
She bit her lip and went for mine whoo
[Chorus]

Calabasas

[v1]
Don’t push, don’t pull, plenty hands in the pot
Case closed, but the back doors remain unlocked
Yeah, it save a lot of trouble when nobody hears the shots
Well paid under the table, nobody calls the cops
Cat and mouse, go round like a game of roulette
Pulled in all directions like a strung-out marionette
So have your cake, they’ll have at Mrs. Antoinette
Not only do they lust for blood, they want your head
[v2]
It’s easier to point fingers when no hands hold stones
Cast them in all directions then iron over the holes
Blue eyed beasts like me ask you to walk on coals
But when the flames cease they’ll hang flags at half their poles
Red eyed children coughing ash up for a buck
Lashes, bats and I tear up at their luck
Let’s just send out dollars to places that fill trucks
With things to numb them until their times are up
[Bridge]
Burn this motherfucker
DOWN!
Burn it all! Burn it all!
DOWN!
Burn this motherfucker
DOWN!
We gotta burn this mother
DOWN!
Let it burn! Let it burn!
