Dream Girl
Written by André Wilson
Vs
Sitting at my piano keys, writing melodies
About love and life
I’ve been grindin hard daily, no social life lately
Trying to get my head on straight and my money right
Success is so elusive and then again for me, so is love
Then again for me so is love
Sometimes I wonder
Will I ever be good enough for my Dream Girl?
Hook
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh , Oh (x2)
Vs
I’ve overcome so many tears, over these many years
And yet still on remains (it’s finding her)
Through growth and maturity, I now value security
Oh how my priorities have changed
Time is now a luxury that I feel that I can’t afford anymore
That I feel that I can’t afford anymore
Sometimes I ask myself
Will I ever be ready for my Dream Girl?
Hook
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh , Oh (x2)
Bridge
Hey?
What’s good?
Agh? I Can’t even do it tonight.
Same thing I do every night.
Got songs to write. Beats to make. Deadlines to meet.
That’s all I do.
Vs
So is it possible to yield to love before first achieving success?
Nope. And can I really love her if I’m not at my best?
Motivation is clouded as I’m weighed down my so much stress?
How is it I can miss someone whom I’ve never met?
I need independence so I can love her whole heartedly
With every fiber of my being. With every part of me.
And the part that makes this so difficult (for me) must be
That I see a glimpse of the women that I want in almost every woman I meet
But I can’t let myself fall for her yet
Cuz I don’t have it all for her yet
Seem all this time alone makes all these pretty girls so hard to forget
Gambling with my passions
Success is on black and love is on red
This is a high-risk game I’m playing
Spin it! Call it Roulette
You say I’m always on my grind
And forever in a hurry
What if I don’t want to be just fine
or great. What if I want extraordinary
It’s so necessary
But then again so is she
So I wrote this song about my Dream Girl
Hook
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh Oh , Oh (x2)
Outro
Got a lot of passion
Got a lot of Ambition
Success is where I’m Driven
But love is the mission
And I’ve got to find a way
To have both of them one day
Til then Im, Wishin

Ain’t nobody gonna do you like I do (x4)
Hook (Garrett)
Can I get your number?
Can I get some of your Love?
I feel I'm worth your time, so swallow your pride
I really want your number, Baby Tonight
Verse (André)
Hello, could you be Ms. Right?
I hope so, cuz I been searching
If I can get lost in your eyes
That's the only way I’lll know for certain.
I’m not just asking cuz I feel like it
I’m asking you because I see potential
And I don’t mean to be rude but I’m only interested you
So I don’t really care where your friends go
I think you should me some of your time
Honestly, because I feel that you're worth mine
And if you can do that, I'll give you the whole paper, front and back,
Not just a few lines
Hah...there we go, that's a pretty smile
What? Did I say something clever?
Just trip this has only been a little while
I can make you smile forever
Hook (Garrett)
Can I get your number?
Can I get some of your Love?
I feel I'm worth your time, so swallow your pride
I really want your number, Baby Tonight
Verse (André)
I see stars beneath your eyelids
Constellations deep within your iris
Damn gravity is no joke
Because it feels like our worlds just collided
So you can let your guard down
And I'll make sure she makes it safely to the ground
Listen, just try it
I know I’m not psychic, but I know you're gonna like it
You need more than pure infatuation
Affection, good company and great conversation?
I got you
And when you need some stimulation, let me be your motivation
This is something that you should explore
I sense that you are slightly unsure
Tired and lovesick
Well just let me be the cure
Hook (Garrett)
Can I get your number?
Can I get some of your Love?
I feel I'm worth your time, so swallow your pride
I really want your number, Baby Tonight
Outro (Garrett)
Get some of this love girl (x8)
Ain’t nobody gonna do you like I do (x4)

Sleeping Alone
Written by André Wilson
Vs
Say that I’m right
Tell me that you want me
That you hate quiet nights
And the fact that you’re oh so lonely
I know just how you feel
Cus’ I feel the same way to
Having a desire
For someone permanent to awake next to
PreCh
You say you cuddle with your pillows
But they aren’t warm and their hearts don’t beat
It’s been awhile since I’ve been in love
Since you’ve been in love, but I want you
Ch
I don’t know how I feel
But all I know is
I don’t want to be alone tonight
I hate sleeping alone at night
And I don’t know how you feel
But all I know is that
That you don’t want to be alone tonight
So can I keep you warm tonight? (I’ll still be there in the morning)
Vs
They say love when you’re ready
Not when you’re lonely
But I don’t know if I’m ready
Because I’ve been so alone
I’m just lookin to chill
Or maybe for something real
You decide if you want forever
Or just tonight
PreCh
You say you cuddle with your pillows
But they aren’t warm and their hearts don’t beat
It’s been awhile since I’ve been in love
Since you’ve been in love, but I want you
Ch
I don’t know how I feel
But all I know is
I don’t want to be alone tonight
I hate sleeping alone at night
And I don’t know how you feel
But all I know is
That you don’t want to be alone tonight
So can I keep you warm tonight? (I’ll still be there in the morning)
Bridge
Wanting someone to there
Needing someone to hold
It’s not fear of the darkness
It’s the fear of being alone
Your company it comforts me
I feel your warmth your energy
A part of is empty
You are the missing piece
Wanting someone to there
Needing someone to hold
It’s not fear of the darkness
It’s the fear of being alone
Your company it comforts me
I feel your warmth your energy
I hold your presence dear to me
I’m at peace when you are here with me
Ch
I don’t know how I feel
But all I know is
I don’t want to be alone tonight
I hate sleeping alone at night
And I don’t know how you feel
But all I know is
That you don’t want to be alone tonight
So can I keep you warm tonight? (I’ll still be there in the morning)
Outro
I’ll still be there in the morning
I’ll still be there in the morning
And I ain’t going nowhere
I’ll still be there in the morning
So you can close your eyes
I’ll be there when the sun rises

Escape
by André Wilson
Vs
Smile on your face
But you cry on the inside
You tell everyone
That everything is alright
Rumors have spread
About the past life you’ve lead
People can’t help
But hang it over your head
You’re so different now
Yes! So much has changed
And yet their opinions
Remain stay the same
You can’t seem to catch a break
Everyone’s infatuated with your past mistakes
Pre-Ch
And I know…
That you are far from what you were
But not yet what you’re going to be
But you must…
Remember not to dwell in the past
You don’t live there anymore
So stop trying to run (just live)
Stop trying to hide
You say that you don’t need help
But you can’t do it all by yourself
Ch
Let me help you escape your reality
There will be no need for magical wardrobes and carpet rides
No worries about how the stars align
When you with me
I’ll help you break free of your past and move on
Quiet the winds and weather the storms
But that’s only if you are willing (You are willing to)
Vs
No matter what good
You try to do
Past choices comeback
To try and haunt you
Your reality’s plagued
By decisions you’ve made
They are near impossible
For you to evade
Feel like you’re stuck
Trapped in a world
Where you’ll forever be that girl
But you just want to be free
To fly high and spread your wings
Pre-Ch
And I know…
That you are far from what you were
But not yet what you’re going to be
But you must…
Remember not to dwell in the past
You don’t live there anymore
So stop trying to run (just live)
Stop trying to hide
You say that you don’t need help
But you can’t do it all by yourself
Ch
Let me help you escape your reality
There will be no need for magical wardrobes and carpet rides
No worries about how the stars align
When you with me
I’ll help you break free of your past and move on
Quiet the winds and weather the storms
But that’s only if you are willing (You are willing to)
Bridge
Free yourself from what you can’t control
It’s their burden now you can let go
Remember that life goes on
Your experiences have shaped the person that you are today
You are imperfectly wonderful in so many ways
Ch
Let me help you escape your reality
There will be no need for magical wardrobes and carpet rides
No worries about how the stars align
When you with me
I’ll help you break free of your past and move on
Quiet the winds and weather the storms
But that’s only if you are willing (You are willing to)

Addiction (Love Drug)
Written by André Wilson and Regina Wilson
Vs
She consumes my mind
Images of her in everything I see
She’s apart of my being
I can’t go without a dose of her daily
Pre-Ch
Minutes and hours overlap
Intense cravings and I’m losing focus
My inhibitions all collapse
And recovery’s now virtually hopeless
Ch
She’s my love drug
Baby girl is my new addiction
And no matter how badly I want to
I can’t get her out of my system (out of my system)
Vs
She’s into me so bad
She’s the only thing that shows on my tox screen
Paramedics on stand by
Cause my heart’s constantly racing then stopping
Pre-Ch
Minutes and hours overlap
Intense cravings and I’m losing focus
My inhibitions all collapse
And recovery’s now virtually hopeless
Ch
She’s my love drug
Baby girl is my new addiction
And no matter how badly I want to
I can’t get her out of my system (out of my system)
No
Bridge
I want her
I need her
Her love I can’t resist
Gotta have more of her
Terminal lover is my diagnosis
I want her
I need her
Her Love I can’t resist
Gotta have more of her
Strung out on her
Can’t you see I’m addicted?
Vs
I’m never content
The more she gives me, the more I want
It drives me crazy
But I just can’t get enough
Ch
She’s my love drug
Baby girl is my new addiction
And no matter how badly I want to
I can’t get her out of my system (out of my system) (x2)

Darling Girl
Written by André Wilson ft. Jaron Carolina
Intro
Protect her like your daughter
Love her like a wife
Respect her like your mother
And everything will be alright
Alright, Alright
Everything will be alright
Vs
You are the light of my life
A flame that is so brightly glowing
You’re the apple of my eye
For which the fruit of my love is growing
So precious
And your presence is so incredible
Your laugh is so infectious
And the smell of you hair is so delectable
Ch
Yes you are my Darling Girl
If I could I would give you the world
But since I cannot
I’ll let you share mine
You’re so good for me
You’re my one and only darling girl
Vs
I’ve never had
Anyone like you
Who makes me smile on the inside
With every little thing they do
Make me want to laugh and cry
All at the same time
Because you gave me a treasure I thought I’d never find
Love
I don’t know who your first is, but I want to be your last
I’ve been racking my brain trying find a million different ways to love you (love you)
Just be patient with me. That’s all I ask
What did I do to deserve you?
Ch
Yes you are my Darling Girl
If I could I would give you the world
But since I cannot
I’ll let you share mine
You’re so good for me
You’re my one and only darling girl
Coda/Bridge
Darling Girl, Darling Girl
Oh you’re my
Darling Girl (Oh Oh Oh Oh)
You’re my, You’re my, My
You’re
Vs – Jaron Carolina
Look I nervous
A path I never tread
My heart is in control
So my tongue maybe mislead
I can’t rap a rhyme
So I wrote you a poem instead
Ok hear it goes, Roses are blue and Violets are red
Agh!! I messed that up
It’s cause of these butterflies in my gut
It’s just when I see you they seem to wake up
Forgive me if it seems so abrupt
But at least I worked up the nerves
To tell you I’m just no finding the words to say
I’m nuts with you smile and freeze with your touch
I am crazy in love. It’s absurd.
I came her to give my best
For you my heart will jump out of my chest
Yeah, the house and the cars you may never need
But I’ll make sure you get them trust me
You will get em babe
Along with them diamonds and pearls
But the fact of the matter is point blank you’re my Darling Girl
Ch
Yes you are my Darling Girl
If I could I would give you the world (If I could I would give you the world)
But since I cannot (but since I cannot)
I’ll let you share mine (I’ll let you share mine oh)
You’re so good for me (so good for me)
You’re my one and only darling girl

I.L.Y (I Love You) Babe
Written by André Wilson
Verse
Whether you wanna stay in the house and cuddle up
Or go out on the town and maybe hit the club
You can bet that with you is where I wanna be
You want a provider and a protector
And need romance, excitement and a lover
I can be whatever you want me to be
Pre-Ch
And I don't care about them other girls.
No, No I don't
They don't do a damn thing for me baby
Cuz you're the only one I need
And I don't even care about what them other fellas say
Cuz I know it's all jealousy
Know my love you'll never have to question
Chorus
ILY babe (I Love You)
I love we can just chill at home in sweats an just be silly babe
There will always be lovers and haters but know that you'll always feel me babe and everyone loves the characters I create, but I know you love the real me babe
And that’s why I I.L.Y. Babe
Verse
Whether you in that black dress, face made up
Or in my T-shirt with no make up
Girl you know you run my show
You don't have to dress sexy or try to impress me
Honestly I could careless
Cause see darling you had me at hello
Pre-ch
And I don't care about them other girls.
No, No I don't
They don't do a damn thing for me baby
Cuz you're the only one I need
And I don't even care about what them other fellas say
Cuz I know it's all jealousy
Know my love you'll never have to question
Chorus
ILY babe (I love you)
In a world full of roses you will always be my lily babe
And I don't mind being your hero, but that makes you my Achilles babe
With you I could take on the world, but if I lose you it would kill me babe
You know that I I.L.Y. babe
3-2-1
Verse
All the time alone, it really used to bother me
Until I met you, now I feel if hit the lottery
And we gon' do this thing properly
That lifelong comradery. The way that it ought to be
Light up my world...my new shine
And you must be a twin baby cuz you are too fine
Got them looks that kill and it should be a true crime
And if you were the warden, I'd consider doing time
Never had to try, for you it’s effortless
Glow radiant and curves so treacherous
Other women don't come close and can't get next to this
'cause you're all up in my head...therapist
And really I just want to take time to say
I think you're beautiful in every kind of way
Genuinely cherish all the moments that we share
It's amazing the way you consume my thoughts when you’re not even here
Chorus
ILY babe (I Love You)
When my essence/ joy is drained from long days you refill me babe
Despite my past you love my present. In my future you are present no but really babe
It feels like we've been through an eternity together, yet you still thrill me babe
And that's why I I.L.Y. babe

Distant Heartbeat
Written by André Wilson ft. Ebraheim Aseem
Intro
I loved you with all my heart
And I still do
It’s been four months since we’ve been torn apart
Yet somehow I still feel you (Aye)
It’s getting so impossible to let it go; to let you go
So if you stop and listen
You’ll hear my heartbeat in the distance (Say Oooooo)
Verse
Stage set. Spotlight.
I'm trying to love these new girls but something's not right
It's like my heart’s on stage and your conducting the score
Cuz you're the only one my heart will beat for
Missin’ you terribly
My heart aches worse than you could ever believe
I hope I’ll survive
Because that pain’s now the only time I remotely feel alive
Ch
Distant Heartbeat
Real love listens when the heart speaks
But you're too many miles away
So I wonder if you can hear what mine has to say
Distant Heartbeat
Separating me from your love has scarred me
We’ve gotta make this work and I’ve been trying to figure how
Can’t say the word Goodbye because it hurts when it comes out
Vs
Pain in my chest, Cardiac arrest
This relationship’s been put to the test
We met. I was a mess
You brought out my best
I gave you my all
Now I have nothing left
You stole my heart and breath
Two counts grand theft
We had to say goodbye
But it’s not the end of the story
We’ve got that special connection wherever we go
Yeah we got that 4G
I still feel your heartbeat
But it’s faint
Let my other half go
I can’t
Forecast predicts clear skies
But all I feel is rain
I don’t only miss you
I miss us together
Tried to move on with life
But with you it’s much better
Pay us minute and hours
And we’ll spend time wherever
So we can hopefully
One day buy forever
Until then I need you to think of me
Every time you hear this song
Reminisce about the memories
You’re like Windex to my mirror
Somehow with you life is clearer
Can’t wait til the day when you and I
Are once again we’re
Ch
Distant Heartbeat
Real love listens when the heart speaks
But you're too many miles away
So I wonder if you can hear what mine has to say
Distant Heartbeat
Separating me from your love has scarred me
We’ve gotta make this work and I’ve been trying to figure how
Can’t say the word Goodbye because it hurts when it comes out
Vs – Ebraheim Aseem
Your heart beats with the same frequency that mine beats
Your mind reaches depths just like the ocean
I dive deep, my vibe beat a wave come ride me
They talking consummation. It’s mental penetration
Spiritual stimulation. I love our conversations.
And yet our situation, this distance for instance has me doubting our relationship.
I sailed a way or better your heart to chase my Dreams
Yet all the things I can pursue are worthless if I’m loosing you
Am I loosing you love? Since I moved away
Can your tone deaf heart hear what mine has to play?
Close your eyes, Meditate
Clear your mine, elevate
Feel your heart levitate
As our love resonates
A beautiful star glows bright in the distance
But you don’t need to touch it to feel it’s existence
Our love shines strong even though the glow is hard to see
I feel you heart speak every time my heart beats
Ch
Distant Heartbeat
Real love listens when the heart speaks
But you're too many miles away
So I wonder if you can hear what mine has to say
Distant Heartbeat
Separating me from your love has scarred me
We’ve gotta make this work and I’ve been trying to figure how
Can’t say the word Goodbye because it hurts when it comes out
Outro
I loved you with all my heart
And I still do
It’s been four months since we’ve been torn apart
Yet somehow I still feel you (Aye)
It’s getting so impossible to let it go; to let you go
So if you stop and listen
You’ll hear my heartbeat in the distance (Say Oooooo)

Leave
Written by André Wilson
Vs1
It’s been a few years, going strong
And then there was that extra one that was way too long
When we’re together, we are arguing and fighting
then one leaves and the other’s always left crying
How much longer will this last? We need to leave this in the past.
One minute they’re in a frame, then the next minute our pictures are in the trash
Emotional relapse, and I’m so tired of this show
Being in this relationship makes me so miserable
Pre-Chorus
I don’t wanna do this no more. I can’t.
Get back together? I don’t think that we should
Give you and me another chance
Cause it is no good
So Im saying…
Chorus
Go! Leave me alone. I do not care
Knock somewhere else cuz love no longer lives here
You have played your cards, Gave me a broken heart
And I can’ fix it as long as you are still here (repeat chorus)
As long as you are still here (x5)
Vs2
This is Emotionally Draining, you’re driving me crazy
Always apologizing but it’s always the same thing
¬¬¬¬This game will not be replayed
Game Over, girl, No more Charade’s
What are we doing? And why are we here?
We need to move on. I have no more time for tears
Or the fighting and arguments
Let’s make this clear
There will be no more sorries
Because they’re insincere
Pre-Chorus
I don’t wanna do this no more. I can’t.
Get back together? I don’t think that we should
Give you and me another chance
Cause it is no good
So Im saying…
Chorus
Go! Leave me alone. I do not care
Knock somewhere else cuz love no longer lives here
You have played your cards, Gave me a broken heart
And I can’ fix it as long as you are still here (repeat chorus)
As long as you are still here (x5)
