"C'est La Vie" Produced by White Rain Composed & Arranged by White Rain Mixed & Mastered by White Rain Performing Artist & Lyrics by Landon Wordswell [Intro Chorus and Hook] C'est La Vie Hello, Goodbye We come, we leave We born, we die No them no we Just you and I We come, we leave We born, we die X2 [Verse 1] I always said I'd never do it for the girls or fame For the glitz or the glamor nor the pearls or chains My homie stayed the homie through the swirls of flames She said, "Boy, don't you stop - you got a world to change" that statement - got me like hold up The belief in them eyes though - it lit my whole soul up This is more than a quota - this is more than the rhetoric Measured with better etiquette - let it get fed the predicate Eating up all the action looking for lost attractions Looking to pause the passion And pushing it off to that one This one Found myself and lost religion Said my peace to the Muslim Hindu and Christians But it hurts most - because I'm hurting my moms If we converse then you find - that's what lurks in my mind But I know deep down she ain't raise me like that And when I go home, she thinks I'm crazy I bet C'mon [Hook] C'est La Vie Hello, Goodbye We come, we leave We born, we die No them no we Just you and I We come, we leave We born, we die X2 [Verse 2] Who would have thought that mad kids were attracted To the awkward fat kid with the glasses I lost a lot of weight & I changed the image But I'm still the same person with the tainted blemish Doing the same shit that got me out my depression Back then it was a hobby - now it's my profession It was hard at first because I hated haters But hip hop saved my life - I'm 'gon repay the favor And I was raised in the state of mind of chasing paper Lacing favors take ya time when the stakes are greater In the home studio slaving and waking neighbors A lifestyle of constant work minimum wage & labor Keep thinking the reason to stop But all you you got is yourself - it's hard to believe in a lot Can't believe in a lie - fighting to even the odds Splicing the peas in the pod Deciphering reasons to try [Hook] C'est La Vie Hello, Goodbye We come, we leave We born, we die No them no we Just you and I We come, we leave We born, we die X2 [Verse 3] These days it's just harder to focus Got a lot on my mind - and it's hard to expose it They keep saying it's all apart of the opus But I've already noticed That's why I've already wrote it It's hard to come home after all the people you touch But it's also hard to stay away from people you love But To give 100 percent you gotta take it first That's when you start to envy the people that make it work One man's hell is another man's heaven One man's demons is another man's reverend The way I see it, you got a couple of options You can lie - you can cheat, steal, or hustle your noggin I chose the latter Climbing higher with quotes that matter Abracadabra! they rather call me a social rapper Are we on the same page? I want to know the chapter Don't matter if we flip the script - cuz we know the actors [Hook] C'est La Vie Hello, Goodbye We come, we leave We born, we die No them no we Just you and I We come, we leave We born, we die X2

"Blowing In The Wind" Produced by White Rain Composed & Arranged by White Rain Mixed & Mastered by White Rain Performing Artist & Lyrics by Adikkal of LHA [INTRO] goddamn, it's Adikkal man I don't know why I keep getting high at night it's like, just cos it's there or some shit Whats up White Rain? [Verse 1] bleary eyed stoned out of my mind for the 14th time in as many nights when it's there I find it really hard to say no rollin up a spliff searching for the stoner payload and in the morning I force my eyes open and see more, empty chocolate wrappers on the floor I feel like a whore, but I can't help it, I get a craving that I can't ignore so I stumble out of bed with my eyes closed shuffling along and then I stub my toe "motherfucker" - shit i'm running late and all my clothes are still in the wash, fucking great I'm thinking maybe I'll just call in sick today, I mean imy throats a little bit sore anyway plus it's wet and grey and pissing down rain OK it's settled, hmmm where's that joint again? [Hook] I float blowing in the wind smoke blowing my face I'm blowing off the day once again [Verse 2] but for now it's junk food and TV i'm goin off the grid if you need me then too bad, I'm too glad to move back to the couch groove that I've carefully made and prepared for the day and I'm wary of change to my chilling arrangement cos this day is made for blazin and blatant time wasting playing playstation eating and sleeping and deep relaxation is creeping inside of my soul and I'm still enjoying my time, doing nothing is fine provided it's not all the time and so with that in my mind I'm taken a break from the hustle and grind just to unwind, maybe sip on a wine and spark up a J, is that such a crime? [Hook] I float blowing in the wind smoke blowing my face I'm blowing off the day once again [Verse 3] work is a drag, so I'm glad that I'm heading home, gotta get in the zone to work on my tone on the microphone so I can sit in my throne knowing I've done what I need to do, but instead i'm thinking of the weed, I knew it was a bad idea to have it at home cos habit has shown that temptation alone can fuck up my plans, yeh it stands that I'm only a man but ill focus on my jams and hope that I can stop chillin and smokin and waking up hazy and clumsily gropin for words that I know and the morning has got me committing to quitting but when the night comes around there I am sitting ready in position go again, hmm, where's that joint again?

"Think About You" Produced by White Rain Composed & Arranged by White Rain Mixed & Mastered by White Rain Performing Artist & Lyrics by Wonderflow [Verse 1] as a teen I had a friend he could spend some bread no doubt liked to party stopped it hardly didn't know to slow down his parents left inheritance he never have a job though his bills were taken care of food and clothes were no prob, so he did what he wanted, no structure or consequence responsible for nothing drank until he lost consciousness, did this on the daily had ridiculous tolerance unsatisfied he had to try pills but the opposite effect happened rapidly, liver failed to function now he lives in a hospital bed, I.V. pumping, waiting for a transplant he said the part he can't stand he hoped to live at least four scores like a grand slam to be a grandparent and to merit a family as a kid that was all he couldn't buy not so handily, i took this as a sign to re-evalulate my lifestyle, focused on the future greeting days with a polite smile [Hook] "I'm learning from my past mistakes, cuz my life was moving way too fast had to smash the breaks, so I'm reflecting on my story and the path it takes, then I absorb it and record it on these classic tapes, I'm reflecting on my story and the path it takes, then I absorb it and record it on these classic tapes, I'm reflecting on my story re-reflecting on my story-story, absorb it and record it on the classic tapes so blast it" [Verse 2] Meet Danny, a spoiled brat who grew up with a silver spoon/ He had every toy you could imagine in the living room/ Way beyond selfish, only cared about himself/ He knew his parents were rich, and he'd inherit the wealth/ A pocket full of cash, everyday he'd pass this bum/ Just laugh to in his face, when he asked him for some/ Then one day he noticed, the sidewalk was deserted/ White chalk on the curb it, meant he must've been murdered/ His mom called later, sayin "son time to spill the beans/ See I was pregnant with twins, but I was still a teen/ N two kids ain't an option, when you're living in poverty/ Gave one up for adoption, a year later hit the lottery/ But we had no idea he lived in this very town/ Til last night, he was killed & now he's cemetery bound/ Now Danny felt compassion for the first time in his life/ And vowed to spend the rest, turning wrongs into rights. [Hook] "I'm learning from my past mistakes, cuz my life was moving way too fast had to smash the breaks, so I'm reflecting on my story and the path it takes, then I absorb it and record it on these classic tapes, I'm reflecting on my story and the path it takes, then I absorb it and record it on these classic tapes, I'm reflecting on my story re-reflecting on my story-story, absorb it and record it on the classic tapes so blast it" [Verse 3] our life is a mission and we fight to keep livin see the path that we make is formed by all these decisions big or small I recall but that's easy in hindsight, to look back at a bad choice and wish to retry life but the future is different we don't know if we'll exist then, it all seems so distant then it shows up in an instant so persistent, we can only move forward on a search for the answer and I hope I'm getting warmer We all make mistakes, keep on pressing if you fight it through/ No question that the lesson learned, will spark a light inside of you/ Take hold of what I'm writing you, and If my flow inspires you/ The glow will grow inside of you, And show that you are tried and true/ Stay focused on the moment, know that even when the sky is blue/ Enormous storms are forming, a swarm a clouds to blind your view/ whatever you decide to do, remember this enlightened truth/ Life is a blessing, not something you're entitled to/ [Hook] "I'm learning from my past mistakes, cuz my life was moving way too fast had to smash the breaks, so I'm reflecting on my story and the path it takes, then I absorb it and record it on these classic tapes, I'm reflecting on my story and the path it takes, then I absorb it and record it on these classic tapes, I'm reflecting on my story re-reflecting on my story-story, absorb it and record it on the classic tapes so blast it"

"The Let Go" Produced by White Rain Composed & Arranged by White Rain Mixed & Mastered by White Rain Performing Artist & Lyrics by Landon Wordswell [Intro] Landon Wordswell, What up, White Rain? How you feeling? Eugene, Oregon to Korea! Word? I gotta get out there one day. Check! [Verse 1] There's nothing like spreading evil through your lungs Then looking in the mirror just to see what you've become Now you meet with hoo-d-lums from the streets & to the slums Life's slipping through your fingers and it's leaking through ya thumbs Quiet with lingo - yes - quiet with the lingo Because look - if life's a gamble he's gonna die in this casino But he hit rock bottom - (his) girl left and GOD got him Hospital brought him back but after that the cops locked him I told him he's got to start another plan Then He looked disgusted - told me "it's too hard to understand" You don't know what's it's like to give it all for another gram Or even having pops leave and fist fighting your mother's man I couldn't speak - he said to listen & just HOPE that's it's real And if you've never felt regret don't say you know how I feel Another bottle made him hollow - now he's closing the deal Drowning all his sorrow getting close to them gills And it hurts when they say he ain't trying - nobody's listening Babymom's fed up - said he'd never see his kids again If you lived this life results are probably the same But who's to say? It's frustrating when nobody's the blame huh [Hook] Back back forth forth Trying to find a reason Back back forth forth Trying to find a reason (hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah) Because the only way to mellow Is for you to learn to let go (hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah) Only way to mellow Is for you to learn to let go x2 [Verse 2] I knew this girl Her name was Rhonda We were cool Well, sorta kinda Had a husband in the slammer - long sentence - no comma She came to my shows - said she loved my stage presence Said she knew I toured a lot, but please just stay present It took her a long time to open up At first I thought it was because she ain't wanna fall in love I brought we to the crib and almost took the exchange But then I said I wanted more - then she looked at me strange Our relationship was cool - matter of fact - it was beautiful Until One day we got way drunker than we usually do Talking - we were laughing - we were drowning in compassion Then she kissed me like that was the last time that it would happen Til that point - I'd never felt a touch that right So, I was fully convinced that I fell in love that night She asked me for advice - then she asked me for it twice Then her husband came back and then he asked me for my life [Hook] Back back forth forth Trying to find a reason Back back forth forth Trying to find a reason (hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah) Because the only way to mellow Is for you to learn to let go (hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah) Only way to mellow Is for you to learn to let go x2 [Bridge] Just let it play Just let it work Just let it breathe Just let it hurt Ok, because the only way to mellow Is for you to learn to let go Only way to mellow If for you to learn to let go X2 [Verse 3] Not everybody's innocent - then again men have been afraid A renegade - crying for help - begging for strength to pray Everybody's got vices - for me it's the bottle But who's the blame but myself & them streets of Chicago? I thank my mom - Because she was the one that put on the pressure Told me to stay away until my sickness got better But I missed my little sister so I got my shit together She way my umbrella when I was under the weather [Outro Hook] Back back forth forth Trying to find a reason Back back forth forth Trying to find a reason (hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah) (hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah) X2
