Basketball Bender Verse 1 Always on my mind all of the time Thinkin' bout shootin' hoops Lacin' up my shoes My friends are tryin' to say I gotta take a break I'm worried about ya dude Cuz can't stop shootin' hoops Chorus When was the last time you went on a bender? You know I'm talkin' bout a Basketball Bender January to December I'm goin' on a Basketball, Basketball Bender Verse 2 It's time to intervene You ain't no dream team Your shot is lackin' the game that it needs to be The call is on the phone but you can't hear it no You non stop ballin' and can't put down the basketball Chorus When was the last time you went on a bender? You know I'm talkin' bout a Basketball Bender January to December I'm goin' on a Basketball, Basketball Bender Bridge Verse 3 It's time to stretch it out Before you scream and shout Cuz you done pulled a Hammy is what I'm talkin' about You can try some yoga though It might help slow your roll And take your mind off from only thinkin' bout basketball Chorus When was the last time you went on a bender? You know I'm talkin' bout a Basketball Bender January to December I'm goin' on a Basketball, Basketball Bender Written by: Kevin Collins and Gregory Bender

Lifted by the Thought Verse 1 I never thought that it would be this way Potent revelations everyday Learning to escape that place inside A mystery to me why hearts collide Chorus We might be the only ones At least we’re left to carry on What our minds cannot believe Should be the very things that let you breathe, now lead Verse 2 Step into a world that’s hardly known To understand the songs that cut the stone And focus on the voice that hardly speaks For it’s the one that knows what lies beneath Chorus We might be the only ones At least we’re left to carry on What our minds cannot believe Should be the very things that let set you free, now breathe Bridge (Instrumental/Solo) Chorus We might be the only ones At least we’re left to carry on What our minds cannot believe Should be the very things that let you breathe, now breathe Written by: Alexander Dickie

Hey, well pass it this way Don't pack up your leftovers just throw them away We sharin' entrees at happy hour price We don't need a car, we can just ride our bikes Chorus Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a, Ballin on a, Ballin' on a Budget Verse 2 When I'm cruisin' to the party I don't stop by the store Got a handle in the freezer in a big mason jar I be lookin' bad ass in my $19 dress That I just picked up at Ross "Dress for Less" When I'm crusin' to the spot with my jar of vodka ginger I got strait for the snacks and I call that dinner, cuz I'm Chorus Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a, Ballin on a, Ballin' on a Budget Verse 3 Free museums, yeah we wanna see em When your workin' on the road, get your food on per diem Walk with confidence, into the hotel pool Somebody looks at you, we're room 122 Pot luck party I brought my Tupperware There's gonna be some extras and you gotta be prepared Chorus Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a, Ballin on a, Ballin' on a Budget Verse 4 You know we only go to festivals when they are free Bonnaroo, ACL, you know you best be payin' me With your organic snacks and your top shelf booze Don't be skimpin' on the swag cuz I brought my crew Chorus Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a Budget, Ballin' on a, Ballin on a, Ballin' on a Budget Written by Kevin Collins and Candace Collins

The Arc 04:02
The Arc Verse 1 He was a leader with such grace A voice for the people, he showed there was a way He did so much good but some just complained And it stirred up a fire in the States Verse 2 They shared a word, behind closed doors A word from before the Civil War (the Civil War) An ember that's left alone, will come back to burn And it's time we stomped out it's return Chorus Let's show them the way (Let's show them the way ) Let's show them the way (Let's show them the way ) Modulation bridge Verse 3 Climbing the latter, resistance ahead Teaching compassion Through the way that he lead (The way that he lead) He shared some words a wise man once said He said the Arc of history it bends.... Towards Justice Chorus Let's show them the way (Let's show them the way ) Let's show them the way (Let's show them the way ) Written by: Kevin Collins

Fly Low 04:10
Fly Low Verse 1 We’ve been walking 25 years but something keeps calling us home We had made a lot of moves on the fly but we never lost one of our own Now we’re rollin' through the back roads high just looking for a place to play Blue lady of the wild looks fine and I think we’re invited to stay and fly low Chorus Look High but Fly Low… Verse 2 We got started in the shadow of a wing of a caravan headed west Met a man that claimed to know god and sold him a bullet proof vest Heart set on the promise of a land and the things that let you know That you’re moving in the right direction but you gotta learn to let go look high and fly low Chorus Look High but Fly Low… Verse 3 Disintegrate into the flavor of rain and now I think I’ve had my share Take a look into the heart of the mind and you’re sure to find it there Hard travels make a stone of the man and will shape who he becomes When you look em the eyes you will find that we are our father’s sons so look high but fly low Chorus Look High but Fly Low… Bridge Verse 4 Well I been searching for the bottom line but I haven’t found it yet The more I know the less I understand, still trying to forget 4 seasons went by like a flash and now I think it’s time to roll What is lost may never be found well I guess that’s how it goes so look high and fly low Chorus Look High but Fly Low…
