07:42My
07:44My
07:45My
07:46lên
07:47When I wrote this song, I was really tired of the way things were in my personal life.
08:00And I think the way the world is this year and has been for a while, I think maybe we can all relate to it a little bit more now.
08:09So I just want to say if you're here and you're watching this, I'm proud of you for making it through a really, really wild era.
08:18Of time to get here, to experience this moment together.
08:22And I know I'm not the only person that's tired of just getting by in life and knows there's something more.
08:31There's something more for all of us.
08:33So this next song is an ode to that feeling.
08:38And this one's called Get Free.
08:42When the water's rushing up you and Nick.
08:47And the ground leaves your feet
08:52Look around and see what you've got left
08:58Did you get free?
09:00I'm giving all of it without regret
09:09Cause what's the worst it could be
09:16In need of more than just the check to check
09:22To get free
09:24Not trying to get by
09:30I'm trying to get by
09:33I'm trying to get free
09:35I'm trying to get by
09:44Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
09:49I'm not trying to get by, no
09:53I'm trying to get free
09:54I'm trying to get free
09:58Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
10:00I'm not trying to get by
10:04Get by, get by, no
10:06I'm trying to get free
10:09I'm trying to get free
10:11I'm not trying to get by, no
10:16I'm trying to get by, no
10:46I've been waiting to do this for a while
10:49And I'm going to bring out a very special guest
10:56To sing one of my favorite duets
11:00Ever

11:07We were low, we were high, just go hide
11:13I still stay by your side
11:15You know I tried and tried and tried and tried and tried
11:22I was wrong, I was right, justified, I was playing with fire

12:04I miss the old you?
12:05I miss the old you, baby
12:06I used to hold you, try to ride or die for life
12:12But I couldn't mold you
12:15I couldn't mold you
12:16Cause I didn't own you, baby
12:17Cause I didn't own you, baby
12:18But I'm on my own too, now I've grown to know
12:22A lot of shit that I didn't before
12:24My heart in your grip
12:25My heart in your grip
12:26Don't let my shit slip on the floor
12:27I follow your drip and follow the same when you're gone
12:30I try to remember
12:32But then I remember that you got a temper
12:35And I got no filters
12:36So it's like a sandstone
12:37When we get the blows
12:38Can we please take it easy?
12:39Let's just act like adults

13:53Stay blessed, stay strong, stay hopeful
13:57This song is called Blackjack
14:05I've been through the fire
14:27I've felt him just down my spine
14:33And I've said, world, would you please have some mercy on me
14:39Oh, could you please lift the curse that's on me
14:45He said, you always did
14:48Like at the hard ways
14:51Since you was a king
14:53Look at the scars on your legs
14:58You keep choosing the wild rules
15:05Ooh, I'm not sorry
15:12Stay sick cause I follow my gut
15:15They said I was pushing my luck
15:18Nah, I'ma push me a mad old black truck
15:21Ooh, I'm not sorry
15:23Stay sick cause I follow my gut
15:26They said I was pushing my luck
15:29Nah, I'ma push me a mad old black
15:32I'ma push me out all black
15:43I'ma push me out all black
15:54And I've been through the storm
15:56And I've heard thunder in my heart
16:03And I've said world would you please shine a light upon me
16:09Oh would you show me a sign you love me please
16:15But you always did
16:18Like at the hard way since you was a kid
16:23And time after time again
16:27We keep choosing the wild road
16:35We tell them, we tell them, we say
16:40I'm not sorry
16:41Stay sick cause I follow my gut
16:44They say I was pushing my luck
16:47Nah I'ma push me out all black truck
16:50I'm not sorry, no
16:53Stay sick cause I follow my gut

16:58Nah I'ma push me out all black
17:01I'ma push me out all black truck
17:13I'ma push me out all black truck
17:24Obstacles like ops, gotta watch them
17:26I'll keep my obstacles up
17:27Cause every soldier stays strapped up in the clutch
17:29And I don't mean toting tools
17:30No I got different weapons
17:32Like a nine in my mind
17:33Detecting my intellect
17:35Then I aim it at anybody
17:36That's threatening my set
17:37When I say set
17:38That's like the kin
17:39That still call me by my pet name
17:40Baby you don't gotta guess
17:42I lived it to express
17:43Ain't no need to stress
17:44Just keep a vest over your chest
17:46Meaning don't be taking bullet wounds
17:47That keep you in your room
17:49Feeling less than impressed
17:50Just keep it cool
17:51Painting up the city with my hue
17:53And they like it they say ooh ooh
17:54Plus I stay true despite what you do
17:56And I keep my feet down
17:58My head up my cuckoo
17:59I remember settlers
18:01Like you know you cuckoo
18:02I've never been a settler
18:03High tides are more like my ride
18:05Either that or a matte black truck
18:07Like a Lexus for my papa
18:08Rest in peace my papa
18:09Keep eye out for baby daughter
18:11My spirits will shatter
18:12Pew pew so I even bother
18:14You got a lot of nerve
18:15But my fuse is much shorter
18:16I'll cut you off like my old split ends
18:19Then ascend like the phoenix again
18:22Venus said keep him barred up
18:24So I'm back to the pin
18:25And I got visions in my mind
18:27Like Steve Lin
18:28Mr. Morris put singing choruses
18:29For my long lost kin
18:30And like ooh ooh
18:33Ooh ooh ooh
