In The Now

Verse One
No watch on my wrist/
Just you on my arm/
Babe, no need for alarms/
The time is now no when no how/
Forever in a rush, we are/
Coffee in a cup, to go/
why not take our time/
Lay back recline let it cool sip it slow/
Chorus
We live in the now/
We never know how/
It ever goes down/
I don't subscribe to the 9 to 5/
No not for me I'm not that kind of guy/
I'd rather sit in the house on the couch with you. That's my kinda vibe/
Far from responsible/
If you ring I'll respond to you/
I'm fond of you I'll cross the pond for you/
Not for denial it's not my style/
you see I live for the now/

Labor

Chorus
I got work to do girl/
For us to work it through girl/
But that's just labor/
I can't savor/
Verse One
Said I'm sorry I annoy you/
You know you should have been a lawyer/
The way you judge, jury and execute me/
Details of my past flaws/
Are drawn like cards within your laws/
Any dispute seems to be mutiny/
See I apologize for what I am obliged to do/
In this gauntlet you call proof of love (Hay)/
I'll gladly gladiat you just to entertain you/
But when the blood is drawn the love is gone/
Sacrifice I won't, no crown of thorns/
And you want new heights to your occasions/
Chorus
I got work to do girl/
For us to work it through girl/
But that's just labor/
I can't savor/
Verse Two
Poetry in motion/
Captivated by two hearts/
That don't love in sync anymore/
So you question my intentions/
When there's no need for suspicion/
So what else is left to prove to you/
See there's no need to maintain what is no longer there/
I might as well let you have your way/
Resistance is futile in this situation/
If I don't fight I don't care if I do it's an affair/
Surely you want me to suffer/
Consequence is of no consequence for me anymore/
Chorus
I got work to do girl/
For us to work it through girl/
But that's just labor/
I can't savor/

Foolish

Verse One
Trouble seems to envy me/
Decisions so hard to make and she knows/
Knows I don't want her to leave but I can't seem to open my mouth so I go/
(Go ahead and make it so hard for myself )
Try man I try but I can't seem to get passed and it shows/
Girl you know I'm so weak and it's killing me girl it's killing me/
Chorus
She was trying to be serious, but I played the fool//
Wanted us to stay together, still I played it cool/
If I could just turn back the time, I could changed it all/
Now shes lost to me forever/
And it's all my fault/
Verse Two
Help me I need your touch/
I need you so bad/
Girl understand it's not like/
I'm not /Trying to be in love with you/
Do I don't I want you
I don't know but I'm trying/
To hold on to you
I just don't want things to go all the way, all the way through/
How do I keep you and loose you all at the same time, same time/

My life is all that it is cause I, cause I love it so much it makes me feel so alive I just can't describe it/
The very breath I breath is all about it cause I'm/

To See, That it's natural/

In my soul, It feels so right/

And it has a hold on me baby/
This music. Is my greatest gift/
To offer you/
