2009 - Rayland Baxter

I don’t need to lie no more

All I do is shine

Take a breath and ease my mind

And she don’t cry no more

She tell I get her high

'Cause an angel wanna fly, and I…

Ain’t askin' why no more

I take it if it’s mine

I don’t stay inside the lines

It ain’t 2009 no more

Yeah, I know what’s behind that door

Okay you gotta jump in to swim

Well, the light was dim in this life of sin

Now every day I wake up and breathe

I don’t have it all but that’s just alright with me

Take it nice and easy

Took a flight to see me

Send you back home with the lights that beamin'

The whole team 'bout to figure it out

We ice cold, that’s what winter’s about

And sometimes, sometimes I wish I took a, took a simpler route

Instead of havin' demons that’s as, that’s as big as my house

Have a ball with a dribble and bounce

'Cause the party ain’t over till they’re kickin' me out

Well ain’t it funny?

We can make a lotta money

Buy a lotta things just to feel a lotta ugly

I was yea high and muddy

Lookin' for what was lookin' for me, yeah

Well I don’t need to lie no more

Well now all I do is shine

Take a breath and ease my mind

And she don’t cry no more

Tell I get her high

'Cause an angel wanna fly, and I…

Ain’t askin' why no more

I take it if it’s mine

I don’t stay inside the lines

It ain’t 2009 no more

What’s behind that door

They ask and ask me what I’m smilin' for

Well, because I’ve never been this high before

It’s like I, I never felt alive before

Mhmm, I’d rather have my peace of mind than war

See me and you, we ain’t that different

I struck the fuck out and then I came back a-swingin'

I take my time to finish, I mind my business

A life ain’t a life till you live it

Well I was diggin' me a hole

Big e—, big enough to bury my soul

Weight of the world, I gotta carry my own

My own, with these arms I can carry you home

I’m right here when you’re scared and alone

I ain’t never in a hurry

You don’t ever gotta worry

Even when it’s 7:30 and the time is runnin' low

When your heart gets cold

See what’s behind all them unturned stones

And I’m a pro when it come to my job

But I’m a-really just a-tryna start believin' in God

Now when it gets hard

I don’t panic, I don’t sound—

Well I don’t need to lie no more

Now all I do is shine

Take a breath and ease my mind

And she don’t cry no more

She tell I get her high

'Cause an angel wanna fly, and I…

Ain’t askin' why no more

I take it if it’s mine

I don’t stay inside the lines

It ain’t 2009 no more, yeah

What’s behind that door

I don’t need to lie no more

Now all I do is shine

Take a breath and ease my mind

And she don’t cry no more

She tell I get her high

'Cause an angel wanna fly, and I…

Ain’t askin' why no more

I take it if it’s mine

I don’t stay inside the lines

It ain’t 2009 no more
