“The Rest of Your Life”
written by K. Daniel
Verse 1
I made it past twenty-one
I’m lookin’ at how far I’ve come
I’m lookin at what’s left to go
It’s a long way until the end of the road
Thinkin’ ‘bout everything that got me here
So many things can happen within a year
Like jumpin’ hoops, dodgin’ bullets, and facin’ fear
And the key was not to listen to everything that you hear
So you lived your whole life one way
You find yourself revolving in the same place
So disregard everything that they say
I take my time and I do it my way
You could spend your whole life plannin’ how to do it
And spend the other half tryin’ not to lose it
Well, now or never’s wellin’ up inside
Even if you fuck it up the first time
Hook
For the rest of your life
Your life (Repeat x3)
For the rest of your life
Your Life (Repeat x3)
You’ve got the rest of your life
It’s up to you to decide
How you’re gonna spend your time
Cause you could tweak for the rest of your life,
Get yours, Imma get mine
I’m just speakin’ my mind
Yea, if you know it’s your time
Put a hand in the air for the rest of your life
Verse 2
Can you picture the part of the world
Where nobody goes?
The temperatures dark
And the sky is so cold
I met this lady
She seemed a little crazy
I told her I could sing
She said she’d be my baby
And take me to the glory
Like something from a story
Said we’d be comfortable
And we could be real secure
But I told her I’d seen the, “glory,”
A long time ago
And it wasn’t comfortable
There’s something’s I know, I know
Like, “Easy come, easy go.”
“When something’s for sure you’ll know.”
And use it to live this life
Until the day you die
Hook
Bridge
Am I crazy?
Or too lax?
Do I take advantage?
Or just fall back?
One step at a time?
Or do I go for the gold?
Well the devil’s in the difference
So I work it out with my God
I could take this moment
And say everything I wanted
And describe in detail
Everything that I feel
Or I could just show you the kid with the paper and pen
Melodies in his fingers and beats in his head
If you never try, then you’ll never know
You could be searching your whole life long…

“Lonely City” ft. Jahz
written by K. Daniel & Jonathan “Jahz” Houssou
“Life can be only what you make it
When you’re feeling down, you should never fake it
Say what’s on your mind
And you’ll find in time that all the negative energy will decease…”
-Mary J Blige
Rap
Uh, yo, Yo…
Why listen when they think they know
They never stop to live, living in the fictional
The fact is they practice and I preach
They walk ‘round in circles when I speak
Trying to find the right and wrong turns
And not burn in the mistakes
In the states, watch for who loves and hates
Tell you that your heart is their's, and only them
Whatever, that would just lead to a lonely them
In a city of broke hearts and legendary times
No one ever understands legendary minds
Keep pushin and keep faith in you
There’s no tellin’ the level you could take it to
Live, love, and cherish
Fuck the hysterics
Watch for the throne, peace to my niggas in Paris
Imma see you soon, for now watch for me
Without the others, who’s stoppin’ me?
Verse 1
Sitting here feeling all alone
I put it on the table and was vulnerable
And now, I’m wondering what I have to show
From the look of things I’ve come up empty handed once more
Is this what I bargained for?
I feel like I just sold my soul
I asked God to make me the best
And here’s the price I pay I guess
I’m…
Hook
Living here in this lonely city (repeat x6)
Where no one understands me
And the streets are empty
And if I was to scream
It would come back to me
And I wanna get out
But no one showed me how
And can’t nobody get in
And so I hold it in
While I’m stuck in
This Lonely City
Verse 2
Wondering when I fell from grace
And how I landed in this place
This city used to seem so full
But now it’s just empty and dull
I hope I’m not the first to come
And I won’t be the last to leave
I pray I’m one of many
To take a walk through this city
Bridge
Expensive city living
Has taken its toll on me
It feels like time is ticking
To get up out this city
Walking through fire
We might get burned
But better with each lesson learned
And wiser once the ends in sight
To the other side
Of This Lonely City

TROYL (Forever Dreamin’)
written by K. Daniel
Verse 1
Looking on the horizon
What do you see?
Can you see the sun rising
On a beautiful dream
Everything that you wanted
All fits in a frame
You can feel it burstin
Cause you life is the seam
You’ve been having that dream
Again tonight
The one that gets you thinking
About the rest of your life
And now it’s time to become a
Life extrodonaire
Well remember what you came for
Open your eyes and dream if you dare
Chorus
Some may spend their whole life sleepin
I’d rather keep on dreamin’
Time may end the world stop spinnin’
I’ll be forever dreamin’
Verse 2
Let’s say you had the answers
And you knew the way
There’d be no point in the journey
That led to today
So despite how you’re feeling
You gotta trust what you know
To lead you to your destination
A dream you can hold
Chorus

Funny Paper ft. The Beatles
written by K. Daniel Paul McCartney & John Lennon
Kahlil:
You never give me your money
You only give me your funny paper
And in the middle of negotiations
You breakdown
There’s something bout the hands on a clock
And how they tick with no destination
No contemplation or hesitation
Time moves on
There’s something funny ‘bout me and you
And how this thing won’t come together
Leaving us with no explanation
And I’m burnt out
The Beatles:
You never give me your money
You only give me your funny paper
And in the middle of negotiations
You breakdown
Kahlil:
The question is how long
Is too long to hold on
To something that
Was made so fast
And made with all
Intent to last
There’s you and I
You say it’s not time
And in ten years time
It may be right
But I can’t say
That I will stay
And wait around
On solid ground
For the day and time
You make up your mind
And you decide
When it’s right
The Beatles:
I never give you my number
I only give you my situation
And in the middle of negotiation
I breakdown...

The Fall In
written by K. Daniel
additional lyrics by Dean Pitchford, Michael Gore, and Donny Hathaway
Intro
When I think about my downfall
All I think about is you... (repeat)
Verse 1
Here we are
Once again
I find myself
At the end
Of curiosity
Which often leads
To the one thing
I don’t need
See girl I’ve known
This high before
And the last time
It left me low
Said if I made it back
I wasn’t comin back
But then my
Wounds get to itchin
My head starts revolving
With memories, recallin
And next thing, I
Hook
Fall In
All In (repeat x4)
Verse 2
To anyone
Who’s ever fell
I know the fall
All too well
You try to escape
But something makes you stay
For one last try
Just one last time
Well girl you’re my
My kryptonite
Can’t put you down
Without a fight
And if you’re the one
Thing I need
Then how could this be wrong?
Ain’t felt this in so long
Like a rip from a bong
And that’s how ya…
Hook
Vamp
When I think about my downfall
All I think about is you... (repeat)
You snuck up
And made me give a damn
Damn
Bridge
Lord can you help me cause I’m bout to fall
With no reservation with no care at all
Reminders of things that have happened before
Signs of the symptoms that lead to withdrawal
Lord can you catch me
Can you save me
Cause all I can see
Is what’s in front of me
See girl if you’re my downfall
Then that
Can’t be
That bad
Signs I
Should slow down
Head back
Turn around
Or are you tellin me
This time I’ll be fine
If I just take a dive
And fall
Hook
Ending
In the pursuit of the things that you want
Don’t fall victim to losin the things that you’ve got
When you fall in love you’ve got to fall all the way
If the fallen could tell you they’d say:
She fills me up
She give me love
More love then I’ve ever seen
She’s all I’ve got
She’s all I’ve got in this world
All the girl I’ll ever need
And I love you
More than you’ll ever know
More then ever know
Let me break it down
Girl I love you like (repeat x3)
I fall in
All in (repeat x2)
When I think about my downfall
All I think about is you
It’s you
I guess the bottom can’t be that bad
I guess the bottom can’t be that bad
If you’re hear the bottom can’t be that bad…

TROYL (Outro)
written by K. Daniel
You’ve dreamed it
You’ve seen it
You feel it
You breathe it

No questions asked
You’ve come to far
No turnin back

Then say a prayer
Next thing you know
Your’re already there
Just keep on breathin
Just keep believin
When you feel like screamin
Just keep on dreamin
You’ve got the rest of your life (repeat x3)
(Stamp)
Hope you liked this R&B
And the sound of I.E.
Please don’t follow me
Follow your instincts
