Play Da Game 04:21
Chorus (Detra): Cause everything that I did before/ Just shows me that it be that way/ Cause everything that I did before/ Just makes me wanna play that game/ Bring the ball around/ It's about that burning flame/ And bring the ladies down/ And make them wanna play that game/ Verse 2 (Detra): Yo, so everybody knows the game that Mith and I we play/ We never stay the same n recognize the fame we gain/ We go from one to the other, we on, he’s like ma brotha/ We never stop at no, we on till the end of the show/ Cause it’s a joy to be playin with da strongest in this game/ We come out on the other side even bigger than when we came/ Sorting out the strong from weak, the men from da sheep/ And everyday is a different way, we in deep/ We rising to the occasion with every temptation/ And at closure, we party up with a celebration/ Like we won an award at the nominations/ We gettin treated like the leaders of a congregation/

Chrous (Detra): Before you can fall/ You'll have to climb/ Before you can stumble/ You'll have to walk/ So if you live your life/ Without ever taking a risk/ You can never die/ Cause then you have never lived/ Verse 2 (Detra): So you gotta choice whether you gonna live or die/ Cause nothing in this world is gonna happen unless you try/ And life ain't fun if you gonna slack it off/ Don't be the guy sitting at home whackin' it off/ You gotta get out/ You gotta make a shout/ Don't regret you sitting at home/ Get out and conquer your throne/ When you laying on your deathbed, what you wanna think/ My life sucked and I was the weakest link/ Or you wanna be proud of what you did/ Then you gotta rethink your life and let out your inner kid/

Verse 2 (Detra): Yo, throw me the mic, I gotta slaughter in sight/ Cause we had a fight every single fuckin night/ And I'm dead tired of you rubbin that shit in ma face/ Bitch please, just stop, yo shits outta place/ Yo breakin me down, cause yo want me to be da only one around/ Just scream, no ones gonna hear a fuckin sound/ And yo got a nose bleed, so bitch just run/ This ain't joke, I ain't tellin yo all this just for fun/ Verse 4 (Detra): So, I can see your face twitchin, bringin in da rage bitchin/ You think yo winnin when you know that I'm da one who is bitch trippin/ There will be no chance for you to get me to give up/ Cause the way you provide your logic is just fucked/ You could be gettin me sum knowledge of your need/ But instead yo tryna keep me sleepin on da street/ Don't tryna break me down when you know that I'm da lead/ I'm on top, I'm ahead, I'm da one to follow da beat/

Chorus (Detra): Where did you go/ I wanted you to know/ Everything I did/ I did it for you/ Now I can't see/ What you want from me/ I guess it's over/ Just let me go/ Verse 1 (Detra): I got nothing left, just sitting here alone/ With a pain in my chest, I'm waiting by the phone/ I can still feel your warm hands holding mine/ And they say it's only a matter of time/ But I don't know, the pain doesn't seem to go away/ My heart can't let go and I think about you everyday/ I know it's a long shot, but I wanna try again/ I won't make the same mistake as back then/ So please give me a call, I can't take this anymore/ It hurts so bad, my hearts really getting sore/ And no matter how hard I try, I just can't let you go/ Time just passes and my love for you will only grow/ Bridge (Detra): Closure, I need closure/ But yet baby come closer/ It's hard enough to stop love/ But how to stop your heart/ Cause good or bad/ What's the difference/ When I still have a steady beat/

Set Me Free 03:01
Chorus: I can be the best if you give me a chance/ And I can be the guest with a shining glance/ There's so much more to me, than what you see/ But you have to set me free/ Verse 2 (Detra): Oh shit oh no, gotta know what's going on/ Seems like everything that can are going wrong/ Everywhere I look comes disaster/ I feel that I gotta be known as the troublemaster/ There's nothing here to keep me going/ Nothing here to keep me flowing/ I'd rather just turn my head, start over, try again/ Find some paper, get some lics going through my pen/ Ima lyrical explosion, a rhythmical erosion/ I gotta move up in the world to feel the motion/ No more time to mess around/ I gotta make a move to make my own sound/ Feel the paper burning, feel the paper turning/ To the next page, to release my rage/ Gotta collect everything I'm earning/ See you all in the next stage, cause/ Bridge (Detra): It's a fucked up time/ That just blows my mind/ Cause I've lost my last dime/ So my coins won't shine/ The government has taken everything away from me/ And everything that I can't see/ So it's a fucked up world that we living in/ And you know my patience for all this are wearing thin/ Let me just leave this terrifying place/ Maybe I should move to outta space/
