I got a new set of teeth 'cause the old ones were rotten
thought it would be a blessing to be more aesthetically pleasing
little did I know I wouldn't be able to speak a word
especially when I was cotton mouthed from consumption of herb
remember the brisk fall mornings, mouth wired shut
losing flow of conversations, feeling out of touch
these people who were my friends, all becoming strangers
feeling more distant by the day, in emotional danger
and it was out of my nature to shy away from the crowd
insecurities eating me alive, weed is too loud
chasing the end of the days, futilely chasing love
waiting for it to fall in my lap from the sky above
but heaven is blocked off by an abundance of black clouds
precipitating fears, look where I'm at now
year of the gnar, losing my mind, can't unwind
wishing I could turn back the hands of time

I climb up out of my bed feeling like I'd rather be dead
tryin' to go back to sleep but I gotta go to school instead
sixteen pizza rolls in the microwave to start my morning
every tick of the clock, you can hear my exaggerated yawning
My boy rolls up in a v-dub golf with a dutch and a sack
Twist that shit up, smoke half and save a roach for when we get back
I'm the mayor of this school, always keepin' externally cool
internally battling conflict, swimming in existential drool
I keep my eyes closed when I scurry through these halls
Running into these daemons, always failing to catch my fall
I've known most of the people for the entirety of my life
but I hate most of 'em, all of 'em love me 'cause my house is tight
I live paycheck to paycheck, keeping all of my grade high
I'm talking about my schoolmates, not my academic drive
workin' at arcadia dental with my highly corrupt mental
always fall asleep on the job even though I never mean to
Friday's here, 16 heads in the gazebo
we all about the weed smoke, dividing a box of blunts for all my people
bitches acting ratchet while we're having some band practice
smash bros in the background, everyone on a couch or a mattress
I got my parents upstairs, and they don't even fucking care
about how I'm black out drunk surrounded by strangers having nightmares
Sometimes my sleep is fake, and I just don't know what to make
of these conversations people having about this life of give and take
My favorite part of the night is when I'm finally done entertaining
Smoking a cigarette in the open garage alone while it's raining
keeping parties maintaining's got me psychologically draining
and I wish I could be refraining from this way that I'm complaining
always hiding in the bathroom stalls, barely going to class at all
dean of students wondering where I am, trying to give me a call
The trials and tribulations of an adolescent loss of patience
Yearning for any opportunity for me to leave my footprints
I got the weight of the world on my shoulders crushing me like a boulder
I keep my past archived in neuropathological folders
memories still haunting me from 2003
when I intuitively learned my destiny
a pseudo-compassionate selfish ball of fucking nerves
born with a life sentence, feeling like my time's been served
life's just a game, only got myself to blame
I let petty shit eat my brain when there's nothing to gain
I'm trying to keep myself sane, let the negative drain
easier said than done, suppressing emotional pain
I feed into this shit, I'm such a hypocrite
I never learned my lesson in 2006
from that tricky bitch, who's still around kickin' it
always making me sick, puffing on the same weed sticks
developed a fear of finding happiness
Inviting people over my house I never wanna chill with
feelin like it's 1920, you can call me the great gatsby
I don't even talk to anyone who I invite to my own parties
it's hard to be, american dreamin' when these bitches be nothin' but schemin'
too much weed and drinkin' to give a fuck about what I'm feeling
what goes around never comes around for yours truly
spread love around and get nothing back but psychological cruelty
every night at my house is like an infinite halloween evening
bitches by the masses wearin' facades and trick or treatin'
and you better be drug dealin' if you want your dick gobbled and eatin'
I peep game on the evening saying to myself here we go again
It's come to my attention how many names I'll never mention
using nothing but pronouns to steer away the tension
So much gnar power I turned the whole district up
I want everybody on my team, nobody missing the cut
thought I was digging my way out, but I'm just digging myself in
welcome to the story, year of the gnar, hope you enjoy listening

having trouble dealing with the notion of mortality
not to mention all my troubles with morality
trying to be the best man I can while I'm still alive
making others feel better about themselves is where I thrive
some people take advantage of the services I provide
walking on me like a doormat all the emotions I hide
thinking about the earlier days when it was me against the world
regret the day I learned some shit and my ego unfurled
using psychedelics to get a reality check
learning everyone's secretly an emotional wreck
we're all in this together, weathering the storm
fleeting moments of happiness in rare form
an ongoing lover's quarrel between god and the devil
life's not fair the playing field will never be level
non-verbally inept but I'm verbally adept
I have a pretty good sense of everyone I've met
life, death, dreams, regrets
dwelling on the afterlife or the probable lack thereof
hope you don't only live once, hope there's some holy shit above
I just wanna be loved rather than being emotionally tugged
jading me depersonalizing me, my conscience unplugged
multiple crises, existential and identity
basically there's no such thing as me
going through the motions within all the locomotion
alleviating everything with synthetic potions
the futility of philosophy swallowing me willingly
my thoughts expended I don't have the answers in me
maintaining abstaining from what's keeping me waning
humility humiliation finish line waiting
for me to never cross it, never turning off the faucet
daemons in my closet making another deposit
Withdrawals from comfort, all my thoughts go unheard
embracing everyday living so absurd
love, hate, jealousy, spite, life, death, dreams, regrets

Gnar Power Squad, gets shit poppin', and we keep it movin'
we be rockin', killin' everything', got the trap house, if you ain't down get the fuck out
Partying with the Gnar Power Squad, got the alcohol and weed covered
Hope you don't turn down for shit cuz we'll keep you smothered
Treat my boys and girls like sisters and brothers
I don't supervise shit I just steer the ship like a rudder
I get paid higher than minimum wage to sit alone and sleep
spend all my money on weed, make it back by the end of the week
I don't play for keeps, I'm always more than fair
mi casa su casa, no charge on the drugs I share
my house is the trap spot with a candy shop
Blowing lines of whatever, rolling lines of pot
We only fuck with real blunts that are flavored grape
Fuck a cigarillo, they never fit the nugs we break
We got plenty of feelings that we never exhibit
keep that shit to ourselves, if you want it you can get it
we're never chasin' hoes, cuz all they do is expose
weak bitch boys we don't need 'em, they can hit the road
Sometimes we trip balls on the fungus amongs us
We're all about peace and love with the gnar power spirit
If you tryna get hostile, we're not tryna hear it
we never provoke, but we also never take shit
good weed, video games, live music and friends
if you got bad blood with ya boys, you should make amends
The weekend is approaching and we all hope to see ya
if you're not trying to chill then we wouldn't wanna be ya
drinking a 40 and sparking a bowl before the 7:30 bell
then i roll up in my english class and start to raise hell
these people love me more than a priest loves choir boys
but not in that kinda way, I'm only trying to get the girls moist
battle of the band swag, repeat champions
I always keep it one hunnit on every rock instrument
the party's poppin' at my pad and I'm not even there yet
rollin' seventy five deep with the whole school gettin' wrecked
the gnar pad's flooded with passed out drunken bodies
raised ranch with a raised roof higher than the rockies
and fuck the swagger jackers y'all just a bunch of carbon copies
I've been dissecting the world gnarly before you puffed a single tree
don't be jockin' our shit unless you got nice tits
conforming to my shit like a bunch of marionettes
I'm a do me even though you're gonna do it too
fuck it you can take it as I make my next move
sorry about that rant there, but I had to make it clear
we were the kings of the gnar before any of you grew a pair
I see it misconstrued by all the underclassmen
you gotta respect your elders, take a bow every now and then
we setup a foundation for you people to thrive in
so give credit where it's due and then we can be friends again
at the end of the day, we're all just trying to chill
let bygones be bygones and make more beats to kill, peace

Intimacy

intimacy, scaring me, opportunities
wish I had it under control, 'cause you never know, of the possibilities
all I wanted was love, maybe some help from above
we're all on our own when push comes to shove
it started on the pool deck June 2008
the first love of my life standing there at the gate
with a friend of mine I couldn't help starting to hate
bit my tongue and got a stomach ache from words I ate
nobody's guilty of anything, nobody's property
i let my mind spin these stories improperly
at the end of the day it's all futility
it's so hard to gauge my level of humility
it's spirit week, homecoming night
invited a girl over that I really liked
but I wouldn't let her come all out of fright
panic attack from weed, tears blinded my sight
face down upstairs whimpering in my bedroom
screaming into the ground like I was howling at the moon
who knows what would have become of her
if I had myself under control taking a night off from the reefer
the room was spinning upstairs at my friend's house
couple of girls I liked tried to get me off the couch
unable to speak words, turnt up on liquor and herb
kinda dodged a bullet there, because that night got absurd
cops came to the basement to scare off underaged kids
slept through the whole thing, in my pocket an ounce of mids
I used to sling seedy weed for cheap to sleazy people
lasted 2 months doing that shit, the amount I smoked and sold was equal
one day at my house, a larger gathering than usual
passed out early from all the shots I took and blunts I pulled
the girl I loved rolled up later in the night
fucked my best friend in the woods out of everyone's sight
and I woke up in the morning, saw a condom in the driveway
that shit was used, I had pick it up throw it away
I've never chain smoked so many cigarettes in one day
I just let that shit go, what the hell could I say
I had gym class with a cute girl I didn't know well
I guess my three point shooting had her under a spell
she made it verbally obvious to me everyday
that she wanted to get with me and go all the way
the feeling was mutual, but my fears kept is neutral
her dad was a cop, that excuse was my loophole
when in reality, I was just scared of intimacy
it seemed too good to be true, always overwhelming me

Faded, jaded, played with, by a fake bitch, can't take it, won't make it, nothing ever will be sacred
Trapped in a head with a flawed ideology
Trying to escape the truths of reality
A casualty of many fallacies, caused by jealousy of all the guys I see
with all the girls with whom I want to be. It's been like this since puberty,
when my straight hair turned wavy, and I learned that there's no God to save me
Weed impedes my creativity, so I put that shit down, tried sobriety,
and it's workin' so far from what I can see, but I still contemplate the days of puffin' trees
Getting high as can be, feeling like I had a key to all the secrets of the galaxy
Gnar power was a gift and a curse, gave me a lift but then threw me in a hearse
When I was going through the brunt of it,
I tried to run with it, but I had to run from it
This life is scary, and I'm growing wary,
of a big heart and mind I can't seem to marry
Hypervigilance without diligence;
years and years of losing innocence
Burning bible pages likes incense
'cause it makes sense to smell resentment
Gettin' faded 'cause I'm jaded, upside down faces when I'm on acid
Chillin' with a plethora of silent kids in a basement with a loaded fridge
Drinkin' mad 40s, burning bridges. Isolation prevents stitches
Anxiety's my nemesis, and a lack of love's my genesis

Ugly
03:26

|

I've never felt so desperate before
Vomiting my stomach contents on the floor
And I know by now that when it rains, it pours
Showers of sugar within my canker sores
Finally I started making the connection
Horrified by my own ugly complexion
Cystic pimples and a speech impediment
Fuck your pity, I don't need the sentiment
All the sediment, years of decay
I learned the hard way when I tried to pray
That there's nothing up there giving a shit
You gotta be your own god, gotta make it a habit
Drugs and booze grippin' me like a vice
That's why it took me five years to get this shit nice
Got a bunch of talent all going to waste
Life could end any second so I gotta make haste
Come into my life if you want yours ruined
Become part of the mess that I'm always brewin'
festering, negative thoughts fermenting
After my god father died I never stopped lamenting
I just wanna be loved for a single second
That shit ain't never gonna happen I done reckon
I'd look a little better if I weren't sulking
constant self-loathing, suicidal ideation
walking back and forth always pacing
the end of everyday I'm always chasing
Met most of the girls I loved through social media
Should've only used the internet for encyclopedias
I was in a hospital bed for 4 months
that's why I've always kept solitude on the forefront
always alone, with my head in a throne
reading what I don't want to see on my phone
some people never win, not everyone can be beautiful
I hope I never have a daughter or a son
The only thing worse than taking life is giving one
But I don't blame my parents for being unaware
that their son was gonna live a full life of despair
Walking on egg shells that don't exist
Every ship that sailed, all that love I've missed
could've lost my virginity when I was 12 years old
but I didn't trust that bitch from what I was told
always had a group of introverted friends
I remained a child while they became men
went to the bad boy school in the winter
to escape the fear of the building that I enter
when I spend a half day wasting time away
trying to make it out alive in the month of may
I have a vast array of inconsistent emotions
lost in the ocean of my mind always swimming
never finding shore, the shit's become a chore
feeling like I have nothing left to explore
I know what you all think, you don't have to say shit
otherwise you'll end up being a fucking hypocrite
trying to comfort me when you know you can't
I'm always gonna be in the same fetal stance
Trying to get my friend group narrower than a scalpel
easier said than done, it's a mouthful
to tell people to fuck off in a nice way
when we're down the street from school smoking weed in my driveway
I bet you've never heard more neurotic shit
from a jaded motherfucker at the end of wit
trust me I'd rather be braggin' about getting it in
but I'm playing a fucking game that I'll never win
Committing sins, fuck your religion
always wishing I could meet some aliens

Year of the Gnar
03:41

Ayo, it is the year of the gnar, son, beginning with feeling like no one
My thoughts are the Heaven to my words of my Hell
Loved ones waiting for the release from my spell,
but with a whole new cast to cast a whole new spell
And you pulled the bunny out of the hat and you put me in a thick shell
A thick shell to be cracked, unlike the blunts to be rolled
Countless nights to the herb is where all my time's sold
Rather that than getting left out by a trick in the cold, mothaFUCKA
Now you got me workin' the grind, and I'm feeling subdued
And I'm living in the land of wonder, I got no clues
And I sure could use Blue, to give me a mothafucking paw print
Sitting in my thinking chair with a head and pocket filled with nothing but lint
And my cash game, my pimp game, both have gone awry
I say they're full of shit when they tell me I'm 'a' be alright
That's why I'm rhymin' now, to get it in and make those papes
Ain't tryna bust a grape, committing statutory rape
They call me a Tyguy, a fly guy, high as a mothafucking kite guy
dwelling on the woes of the past and watching my life go by
better later than never but never is where I'm at
sooner than later, I'm 'a' gonna regret the fuck out of that
Tyguy prospective, Tyguy prophetic
My mind linked to the divine so heavenly, yo check it
Bitches on my nerves, 'specially ones with the curves
y'all dicksucking game is absurd, mothafuck what you heard
the people of society scare when tree's in me,
but the tree is what I need to let my gnar power breed,
life's nothing but tragedy, my mind is a catastrophe,
drastically I need to change my life and find the good in me.
haters, I just let 'em be. your shit cannot get to me.
I've gotten to myself with all my unabashed hypocrisy
I'm trying to spread a seed, off of which I can set myself free
an aberration at best, an abomination failing life's test

entering a vacant house feeling suicidal
found a 357 without any ammo
so I settled for the bottles of the vicodin
I like this shit better than any of my friends
bring that shit to school with my klonopin
tryna drown all my feelings first thing in the morning
bouncing after first block in the snow I'm freezing
forgot to bring my jacket now I'm sneezing
mellow yellow blunts in the afternoon and evening
I wish I was a stronger man for people to believe in
I'm swervin' every which way, slowly breathing
tripping over everything, now I'm bleeding
I see the same 50 faces everyday
they never have anything new to say
you only die once it could be any day
people wasting time, when they go to church to kneel and pray
fuck a chorus and a hook I got more shit to say
nodding out on the job in the middle of may
my workload's heavy and I'm tryna keep my mind steady
so much pressure on my shoulders, it could break a levee
I want to kiss a cute girl but I'm not ready
too busy sleeping off narcotics like I'm seventy
I'm so friendly to my enemies
because I don't any confrontation in me
looking for a way out, looking for escape routes
I'm sick of always having to be the one to open my mouth
Providing shelter for the drug dealers with my trap house
every drug in large amounts, never had a single drought
these people think I'm genuine, don't know about the state I'm in
I keep a strong poker face, acting like I'm always winning
but I'm just sitting here sinning, looking at these people grinning
nothing but an awkward cotton mouthed social chameleon
with every clique I fit in, I'm internally wincing
with the pain I've been provided since I was eleven
never should've initially gotten turnt up in two thousand and seven
heaven, is where I thought I'd be after graduation
people still in and out of my life like a gas station
condemnation internally eternal damnation
memories I repress them, wishing I could erase them
haunt me every now and then, death's coming I don't know when
too many names to mention have my undivided attention
selling words of imprisonment, to set myself up a pension
I keep myself hungry, only my thirst I am quenching
these words are not wisdom, I just want you to sense what I'm sensing

(Tyguy)
I only get my herb from the tops of the trees, smokin' dank header blunts all day in Gazeebs
Friday's here, dubsacks-a-plenty
Gotcha boys up in here and they're rollin' mad blizz-ays
and when the blazin's all said and done
let's load up the car and go for a stoge run
hit up ya boy for a pack of twenty sevens
gnar and stoge sends me straight to heaven
you know what I want when my eyes are red
a couple of girls up in my bed, riding my face and giving me head
I hope the cool guy's working when we grab the dutch
1.75 no need to touch those wraps, fuck boy, 'cause that shit's whack
Pass the Doritos, 'cause here's a snack attack
There ain't any trick bitches in Gazeebs, they say
Just some trill motherfuckers all day everyday
And we'll have some fun even though we're couch-locked
Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart, and Star Fox
(D-Wood)
Me I get my herbs from the bottom, we got 'em
Play the game, make ya feel ashamed like Saddam
Hussein, these words now I hope they're forgotten
'Cause I speak the truth, stay fresh not rotten
You can find me up in Gazeebs, almost every hour
Leavin' suckas left out in the cold now bound to cower
Taste in my mouth be left so sour
'Cause we are the Squad that runs on Gnar Power
(Tyguy)
Never underestimate resin
Roast the remains of ya bud and feel somethin'
When my rents take my loot and I got Saturday detention
I wanna get baked so I blaze the cake
Use the boost to chase mad blunts to my face
Roll up another ace and we'll float to a nice place
Gazeebs, is the place I go
where there ain't no edge kids, just plenty of hydro

Chillin' and Killin'
03:44

Chillin' with my boys, smoking blunts and eating doritos
Just another day of sparkin' up and playin' smash bros
I'll fuck you up with Link, I got that down a swag
so much shit blowin up gettin' heavy amounts of lag
we ain't tryna chill with divas, using us for sativa
one time a bitch got me to roll a half ounce of my reefer
smoked that shit in an hour, impervious to gnar power
we be runnin' on diesel, and you know that shit's sour
Bustin' out some gnary jams, turn that shit up to 11
Cool off in the pool before I kill a 27
Order a large pizza with a free small boo yah
Eat 'til we drop then chase the flavor with some cola
We didn't buy it cold, gotta put it on the rocks
We get it from k and s because you know kingston pizza SUCKS COCK
Chillin' in gazeebs, makin' fun of the bible
We all lack faith, still turning up to Ezekiel
Vomit under the piano, and also under the counter
From the same dude who never hits jumpers, mr. tucker
wouldn't have it any other way in these times of disarray
Times are rough but I kinda hope certain shit stays
the way it is, better than what it's gonna be
when the smoke clears, when there's no more leaves on the trees
the candy shop is open providing opiates for the masses
nodding out in my lawn chair shaded by sunglasses
The good days are fleeting but they're always invited
The rebellion at our age kept us undivided
green games and grape dutches using them like crutches
carrying us through the year, always stocked up in bunches
We were doing it right, getting nothing accomplished
Took me 5 years to tell the story and get that shit polished
only talking to myself but I'm cool with that
Trying to graduate from rap, finish up and never turn back

Had a long cold winter at the bad boy school
They thought it would finally get me to follow a single rule
They called that shit RYSE Reaching youth through support and education
that shit was nothing but demoralization
had a bitch for a principal, her last name garlic
a rotten, condescending, lying cocksucking harlot
I kinda liked my teacher, she was stout and cute
but my style was cramped by this fucking brute
who was always kicking kids out of the class
to a place called timeout where you sit on your ass
people on their way to the bathroom walking by and laughing
knowing that there's nothing you can do about the place that you're trapped in
so I started rapping off the top of my dome
a girl liked my shit, gave me the number to her phone
but she was pulled away by that fat fuck I mentioned
bullying young kids to rape society for a pension
I met some of the coolest kids in the world during those 45 days
frowned upon by administration for their outlandish ways
the whole experience was surreal, so fucking bizarre
coinciding with the insanity of the year of the gnar
long walks on the pavement, slippery patches of ice
living a life I don't want of nothing but sacrifice
never saw any of my paychecks, blinded by the weed smoke
pullin' blunts til I choked, washing 'em down with a rum and a coke
so many fears I could never convert to tears
dry eyes, blood red, with unlimited drugs and beer
I was not to be fucked with, but they fucked with me anyway
Trying to get the fuck out of that place with mad police in the way
R Y S E
Ratchet fucking yuppies sucking the dick of the enemy
I'd pay some damn good money, to watch those fuckers bleed
I'm all out of shit to say so let the beat recede, peace
