[Chorus] I'm forty thousand feet above sea level I ain't coming down It just always feels better when I'm in the clouds And I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below No I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below Forty thousand feet above sea level high up in the air I know that you're hatin' 'cause you wish that you were there And I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below No I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below [Verse 1] Yeah Vibrations on the low That's not where I'm trying to go Red eyes on the Red Eye I don't mind flying solo I'm out of this Earth Space bound On a rocket H-town I'm sitting on space clouds I do not hear a sound I hop on the 747 24/7 I float through the town like Aladdin Where is my Jasmine? I'm touching on skyscrapers no there is no landing Feeling lighter than rice paper no I do not panic Location unknown All they need to know is I'm in my zone Up up in the air Don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below 'Cause I've been there before And I ain't never going back there again Sitting in first class bitch [Chorus] I'm forty thousand feet above sea level I ain't coming down It just always feels better when I'm in the clouds And I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below No I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below Forty thousand feet above sea level high up in the air I know that you're hatin' 'cause you wish that you were there And I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below No I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below [Verse 2] Vibrations on high That's where I reside Destination unknown Somewhere in the sky Where I find peace in my mind And ideas in the signs So air marshal one side 'Cause I'm 'bout to take flight I check on the GPS yes We 'bout to enter Bermuda I heard you were looking for me I'm already in the future Just look at the shit that we did All we needed was computers Feels like I'm living inside of a dream like Freddy Kreuger I just landed on another planet I ain't even plan it now I'm on the moon Zero gravity I'm feeling like Mike Jack I might bust a move I'm in this bitch with E.T. damn right I'm about to pass it to him Like hold this E.T [Chorus] I'm forty thousand feet above sea level I ain't coming down It just always feels better when I'm in the clouds And I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below No I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below Forty thousand feet above sea level high up in the air I know that you're hatin' 'cause you wish that you were there And I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below No I don't give a damn 'bout what's happening below [Outro] I just landed on another planet I'm in this bitch with E.T. damn right I'm about to pass it to him

[Intro: ByLwansta] Lay on my back Turn on the nice time The other night I was not in my right mind Lay on my back Turn on the nice time The other night I was [Verse 1] I used to think that I’d find my peace of mind On an island paradise Where the sun is always high The same as I But little did I know That it was right here all along In the shape and form of you [Prechorus] Last night I was meditating Searching for Nirvana But then I found you woman And when I saw your face I started drifting away It felt like levitating It was amazing Yeah [Chorus] You’re that happy place That my mind goes to When my skies aren’t blue I’m saying You’re my purple zone When I’m on my own I’m thinking of you [Verse 2] If you were a cloud You’d be number nine The feeling’s so divine That you’re giving to me Yeah I close my eyes Set aside some time Just me myself and I Unless you’re visiting me Tonight Yeah [Prechorus] Last night I was meditating (Last night) (Last night) And that’s when you came to me Just like an epiphany And you lifted me Up I started drifting away It felt like levitating It was amazing Yeah [Chorus] You’re that happy place That my mind goes to When my skies aren’t blue I’m saying You’re my purple zone When I’m on my own (When I’m on my own) I’m thinking of you (Just thinking of you yeah) You’re that happy place That my mind goes to When my skies aren’t blue I’m saying You’re my purple zone When I’m on my own I’m thinking of you [Verse 3: ByLwansta] Okay Okay Lay on my back Turn on the nice time The other night I was not in my right mind Now that you’re my side I’m such a nice guy Look at my smile You’ve got smiling You laid me down on the ground But now I’m flying You put your hands under my shirt Girl you’re prying You make personal This thing that you’re trying And I don’t mind it You’ve got my attention And I’ll never doubt your intention As long as it ends with ascension As long as the ground is quite a distance Ride on a cloud with your assistance Pilot Jones I’m your assistant Oh! Smell so good I can’t resist it Oh! Give me your face, let me kiss it Ay! You don’t understand how much I missed this So when you visit You know you make me wanna Lay on my back Turn on the nice time The other night I was not in my right mind Now that you’re my side I’m such a nice guy Look at my smile You’ve got smiling

[Verse 1] Tryna get away Such a hard thing to do But it’s easier to say I’m losing at the game that we’re playing Got my heart stuck inside of your arcade [Prechorus] ‘Cause I want this But it keeps evading me Oh I want this It’s so hard to make you see That [Chorus] Doing this with you It feels like running in a dream ‘Cause I know this isn’t going anywhere And these feelings have got me losing sleep I’m running in a dream Doing this with you It feels like running in a dream ‘Cause I know this isn’t going anywhere And these feelings have got me losing sleep I’m running in a dream oh [Verse 2: Lucille Slade]] Wanted to leave you alone for good Didn’t wanna have you confused I’m good You’ve been hurting I’m confessing I’ve been yearning Ooh Over you I couldn’t tell you the truth My fear had crippled the view What I was feeling is new I don’t know what to do [Chorus] Doing this with you It feels like running in a dream ‘Cause I know this isn’t going anywhere And these feelings have got me losing sleep (Yeah they got me losing sleep) I’m running in a dream (Yeah) Doing this with you (Yeah) It feels like running in a dream ‘Cause I know this isn’t going anywhere And these feelings have got me losing sleep I’m running in a dream oh [Bridge] Stuck on loop It’s like I’m stuck on loop Stuck on loop It’s like I’m stuck on loop Stuck on loop It’s like I’m stuck on loop Stuck on loop It’s like I’m stuck on loop Stuck on loop It’s like I’m stuck on loop Stuck on loop It’s like I’m stuck on loop Stuck on loop It’s like I’m stuck on loop Stuck on loop It’s like I’m-

Terrified 04:36
[Verse 1] What’s the use of even being in love When either one of us could fuck it up At any time That we feel like it Wouldn’t it be easier Easier to give it up Than to wanna die Over a lie But I will admit Most nights I feel like shit And sometimes I really wish For something intimate It’s not like I’m dead inside It’s just that I tend to hide The way that I really feel I got scars that may never heal They never will But [Prechorus] I don’t wanna be lonely anymore No I don’t wanna be lonely anymore Said I don’t no I don’t say I don’t wanna be lonely anymore Said I don’t wanna be lonely anymore Said I don’t [Chorus] But I’m terrified Of losing myself to someone again And it’s never forever so it’s bound to end And heartbreak’s just around the bend But then on the other hand I can’t stand this loneliness Anymore Anymore [Verse 2] Please forgive me if I seem withdrawn I’ve still got some issues unresolved I don’t want no drama not at all Not at all Let’s not get involved ‘Cause I’ve still got some trauma from before Love is a battlefield I’m losing the war Chinks in my armor I’m feeling vulnerable But I will admit Most nights I feel like shit And sometimes I really wish For something intimate It’s not like I’m dead inside It’s just that I tend to hide The way that I really feel I’ve got scars that may never heal No they never will No they never will [Prechorus] I don’t wanna be lonely anymore No I don’t wanna be lonely anymore Said I don’t no I don’t say I don’t wanna be lonely anymore Said I don’t wanna be lonely anymore (No I don’t want to) Said I don’t [Chorus] But I’m terrified Of losing myself to someone again And it’s never forever so it’s bound to end And heartbreak’s just around the bend But then on the other hand I can’t stand this loneliness Anymore [Bridge] I don’t want wanna be lonely anymore no I just can’t carry on like It’s okay When that’s not the case I can’t take Not having anyone I could talk to Have a one-on-one Build a connection Just wanna feel something ‘Cause I’m so sick and tired of always feeling numb

[Verse 1] Don’t ask me how But I found out That you’re finally moving on At least I know now That I didn’t mess it up for you And I’m glad you proved me wrong I Wish I could say the same for me but Last time had led me to believe that That love ain’t never been for me No I’m not trying to put the blame on you I just figured that it’s about time you knew [Chorus] That I’m never gonna love nobody And I don’t think that I’m even gon’ try But I’m glad you went and found somebody I just hope that in the back of your mind you know That there’s no moving on for me No moving on No moving on for me No moving on No moving on for me No moving on ‘Cause you ruined love for me You ruined love Love Love Love You ruined love for me You ruined love Love Love Love [Verse 2] Here I am still Acting like I don’t give a damn And I’ve been All alone Acting like it was all part of my plan But the truth of the matter Is I’m only sadder When I think about everything that we had How it turned to disaster You turned to a bitch And I turned to a bastard I’m surprised that we lasted as long as we did Through all the bullshit Like candles in the wind Everything became dim But I’m glad that you found a new light With him I just hope that in the back of your mind You know [Chorus] That I’m never gonna love nobody And I don’t think that I’m even gon’ try But I’m glad you went and found somebody I just hope that in the back of your mind you know That there’s no moving on for me No moving on No moving on for me No moving on No moving on for me No moving on ‘Cause you ruined love for me You ruined love Love Love Love You ruined love for me You ruined love Love Love Love Yeah you ruined love You ruined love Love Love Love You ruined love for me You ruined love Love Love Love [Outro] No moving on for me No moving on No moving on for me No moving on No moving on for me No moving on No moving on for me No moving on
