Big House 02:07
Wake up in the big house Walking through the big house Happy in the big house Fucking in the big house I'll fight you in that big house Stomping through the big house I'm eating in the big house I'm shitting in the big house Fire in the hallway Breath on my neck Shadow in the bathroom I can feel you, can't see you in the big house Coming for me but I'm coming for you I'm fucking swinging Tearing through that big house Is it me?? Sweating through the sheets Is it me?? Shaking door is going to shatter my dreams It doesn't affect you it affects ME. We come home to our jobs in the big house I can hear you breathing but I can't see you.

Silence 02:28
Stop Start Repeating endlessly I move You move I GET NOTHING WHEN YOU LOSE It hurts! Is too much patience a fault? It is with you here today. Our silence our death. Each day I become more vulnerable. Wading between gaps, breaths, bodies. Silent aggression moving closer to something To THIS! It hurts! Is too much patience a fault? It is with you here today. My silence MY death.

Freeq 01:34
You say I'm a freek. It's like you don't already know the shit we think It's not that different to me But you refuse me you exclude me Cos I"m too freeky Its like you don't want me. Because I'm the freek. You're not the freek You're friends are freeks But I guess they're not "freeky" Oh, it's so tricky Oh, to like me Yet, you're so mean to me It makes no sense.

White Out 01:35
You can decorate your house in all white, But you can't see the color of skin White carpet, clean lines, modern design Everything I see tells me That white equals purity Muted colors Like the way you want me Docile, quiet, white-washed When white equals purity It reigns supreme When white equals purity It's better than me. Don't white me out When white Don't white me out Equals purity When I'm brown or I'm black I stand out to people conditioned not to see I'm a smudge I'm a stain When white equals purity When white equals purity It's better than me. People feel empowered So emboldened we've become But people still refuse to see They think white equals purity Subtly you rip me apart Treat me different when you look at my different Is this a race thing? Or is it just me?? I guess I'll never know Maybe I should change my hair You tell me.

Goal Weight 01:54
My doctors says I need a goal weight. I've got a prescription A miracle I'm gonna lose the pounds Within me Goodbye plus size, Hello world! You're gonna see the real me. Goal weight! My doctor says I need a goal weight. Oh, if I could just lose these THREE pounds. A bag of chips - off limits Cookies! I need you in me. Chicken - only breast! I'm on a diet, you see, I'm gonna lose these 3 pounds Just watch and see me disappear into thin air! Goal weight My doctor's a piece of shit If I could just lose these 3 pounds! It consumes me Thinking of pants at 3 AM A fantasy me where I'm PERFECT Like the magazines And everything we fucking read On T.V., IG and everything our parents tell us Goal weight Hey, Candace, I've got a plan We're going to lose these 3 pounds! Let's just - CUT OFF OUR HEADS.

ORANGE COUNTY It's really burgeoning down there You know, they went blue last election. I was reading somewhere online About the youth - Lots of twenty-somethings Looking for a curated lifestyle. They've got colleges and artists... I think they just opened up a wine bar downtown. Look at all my properties Look at all my land. All these stupid people losing their homes Sure makes it easy to flip this neighborhood. You know I went to a seminar at the Marriott Down on Harbor? They told me I had A+ credit - That's better than gold! Yeah, they let me in the club real fast. I set up an artesian coffee shop in less than a MONTH! Look at all my properties, Look, look! At my land. Do you think I can get the renter to Pay for that wall I want put up? Yeah and this cute little number, A great starter home over on Trask Is going to make a pretty penny with that Open-concept layout. I'll throw in an antique stove-top in there and I'll tell 'em it's from 1945 - POST WAR BABY! Let's take a tour Of all my properties Let's look at all my land. Let's look at all my properties. Do you want to rent? Do you want to buy?? Look at all my assets Look at what I"m worth! Lookit! Lookit! Look at all my LAND.
