Bee (free) 03:49
She doesn't need to believe in silly dreams like the teens she knows they turn to screams. She's had it rough. Had enough. I don't suggest you test her cause she'll call your bluff. She doesn't ask for much, she's always filling in time, and just the thought of her touch, I feel my temperature climb! That's my girl! That's my girl! That's my world. Can't wait to see her tonight! Tonight. I've seen her glow at a show. The only way to describe it is I feel her feel the vibe. That's how I know. Yeah, I know. The only girl around that likes it fast and likes it slow. She never needed a man. Don't even need me! My only hope to make it right is leave her, "Bee!" That's my girl. That's my girl. She's my world. She's coming home right now. You better believe she'll be speaking her mind She listens to all my $hit when I need to unwind That's my girl. That's my babe. She's my world. She's on her way right now. Right Now. Can't wait to see her tonight. Tonight. She's seen me weak, knows my flaws, She's seen me snap, and break the laws. but when I needed an inch, she was there with a mile Nothing seems to matter once I see her smile. That's my girl. That's my babe. She's my world. She's coming in right now. That's my girl. That's my babe. That's my Bee.

Blow Me Away (free) 05:18
we live our lives within a breadth of time we make the best of what we've got even if it not a lot last night the wind was blowing cold, i felt a chill take hold left me empty inside as I was buried in thought we all make our own mistakes even chances we didn't take sometimes these lessons learned become who we are since we're the ones who are left to live our lives with these scars everything that we choose, some we win, some we lose and what might be right for me may not be right for you, i know the opposite is also true, so please don't think i'm blaming you i really wish you wouldn't take offense to the things i say so when that cold wind hit me yesterday I knew there was nothing i could say, nothing i could do the one who blew it must be me, because everything's all up to you •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• those cold winds keep coming around they blow so cold, i shiver from the sound last night they even brought me to my knees only the thought of seeing your face again kept me from the depths of its freeze •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• i'd give my life to be with you through time cause without your touch, i'm really not much and with those winds all around, i know my end is confound since the cold from the emptiness drive me insane i thought you'd be here with me everyday now there is nothing i could do, nothing i could say if the decision were left to me i'd ask please come home today, just come home today i need you here with me •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• those cold winds keep blowing through they blow so cold, but what can i do i can hear them blowing through the trees if i knew you believed in me it would keep me from the freeze

Hand It Over (free) 03:51
"Time heals all pain," I recall somebody once told me. I have myself to blame - accepting what they sold me. Assistance cuts means taking back control and purpose. They want me off my @ss - seek my own social service. This first request begins with standard procedure Reach for the sky, welcome to my first adventure. THERE'S NO WAY AROUND IT - HURRY, HAND IT OVER. I'M COLLECTING TAX DIRECTLY - FROM THE WELL-REFINED TRY NOT TO LOOK SO "AGHAST" - LET'S GET THIS OVER! TOO LATE TRYING TO MAKE ME CHANGE MY MIND! Door to door in search of friends when I was younger I learned how capable I am to feed my hunger Life gets tough, it's up to me to make mine better. A mental coat would fit me cozy like a sweater. Last year my part-time job's cut - claimed I burden the nation Now I'm private sector and I'm helping job creation. I'M TIRED OF BEING CALLED THE BAD GUY, FUKCING HAND IT OVER. I'M NOT COLD AND CALLOUS BUT LOOK IN THESE EYES I HOPE YOU'RE NOT REFUSING HELP I NEED FOR MY FAMILY THAT'S ALL I NEEDED TO HEAR, NOW YOU CAN SAY GOODBYE!!!!! 13 years of time invested in my education 14 schools I figured I'm an aberration Finally came a time to stop making connections Cause when they're gone they always felt just like rejections I testify through time with drinks and medication These bills are due I need some cash for compensation Business that profits courts exempt them of their crimes, NOW I'M IN BUSINESS AND I'LL TRADE YOUR DOLLARS FOR MY DIMES!! WISE LAST SECOND DECISION TURNING EVERYTHING OVER NOW I BET YOU'RE WONDERING ABOUT THAT PAIN INSIDE I'LL LEVEL WITH YOU - OFF THE RECORD - NOW OUR TRANSACTION'S OVER RELAX AND TAKE SOME SHOTS OF WHISKEY, IT WILL HEAL IN TIME!!!

Sometimes I need to shout to let my feelings out when life leaves me in doubt. Some find nowhere to blend so hard to find a friend figure "time to pretend!" Play a BIG SHOT to an amateur lot so hard to get caught! No one can tell, the game that you sell - I like how you spell! Critiques you claim as light don't really shine that bright most seem to just incite. So, let's see what you can do. Can you play the kazoo? I'll give you a nice review! Listen BIG SHOT, I don't admire you a lot, or the lessons that you taught. What made you come here? Did you have a bad year? Next time you should try beer! BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH... "constructive critcism".. BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH... "can't anybody take the heat?" BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH... "I am BulgarianBeat, a very successful european promater" ...whatever the hell "promater" is! I know you have the right to say what you might can't you be decent too? Most learn that when they're six A lesson learned that sticks nobody likes you pricks! C'mon BIG SHOT you're put on the spot, let's see what you got... put up a song, show me I'm wrong or is it too difficult? I hope someday you see a cooler way to be and you can be set free - in the mind, not the mouth! Probably won't be too soon probably won't make a tune so safe and so immune! C'mon BIG SHOT I put you on the spot let's see what you got! Put up a song, don't need to be long, prove me wrong! BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH... "Freedom of speech man" BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH... "I have the right to say what I want" "Bulgarian Beat has the right to say what he wants about any song because after all I am a very successful music promater." I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT "PROMATER" IS!! WHATEVER!!! I've wasted too much breath you're probably all full of meth that stuff can cause you death! C'mon Mr. ????? God knows you're not tone deaf C'mon put up a song let's see what you can do! So BIG SHOT I put YOU on the spot let's see what you got! Put up a song, it don't need to be long and prove me wrong! Can you hear me BIG SHOT? What the hell have you got? I'm putting you on the spot. Let's see what you do. Can you play the kazoo??? I'll give you a nice review! Oh, Bobby! You're getting so good on the kazoo! You played "Mary Had a Little Lamb" ... uh, VERY NICE! Don't worry about those couple of notes you missed in the middle, it could happen to anyone. Keep your head up young guy! ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION... ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION... ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION... WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL... WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL... WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL.
