As a hobby I like to write song lyrics and film scripts.
Writing is a cathartic release for me and helps me transcend spiritually.
Here are links to the raps /spoken words I have written and sung, that are now on Youtube-and Spotify:
Here below are the lyrics, hope you enjoy!
Savior lyrics
Appreciate (J cole x JID x Drake Freestyle Type Beat - Price of Love)
Savour the feeling of my life saver,
my life was saved today all in God’s favor,
all in God’s favor.
A life of beautiful miracles has brought you to earth,
to see people’s greatness see what in them hurts,
cos traumas can be shattering and self-preserval
can show sometimes exactly what’s a person worth.
I just take a look at the struggling artist,
in me,
and introspect to make respect like philanthropy,
the dedication I need to see things through,,
comes from being clean with myself,
emancipation from all that troubles me
Yeah and I still have faith,
I utter and inconveniences turn to butter,
I can’t read no mind, but if you want to know
I’ll open your heart like a book,
freedom’s in turning page after page like you should...
Roll it, swerve it, lick it, turn it,
get high off writing them perfect scriptures,
We weren’t always entwined,
since the day that I met her I watch love ripple...
united with my love, I want you to move so patient...
I was in denial but now I’m in the Nile you’re so flowing,
So I say... I’ll take care of the statements I make,
the stance I take,
for my steel and hardness could feel like chains and darkness,
whilst your softness and calmness,
may be exploited or taken for granted,
and the more words I say,
the more I’ll pay, accountable since
it’s the more likely we’ll get away.
We’ll get away.
There’s no stopping us, I’m a free man.
I’m not no king, but we’re both lions;
radiate when I vibrate with my sight,
inner visions of crystals shining so bright,
Twisting time will only tell,
holding thoughts I can’t bear to lose,
outer space floating in the sky,
fading in my dreams, I’m flying like a kite.
Taste it, never waste it, put it on my plate and I’ll vacate it,
get the cash, smoke and dash, wickedest word play,
Savour the feeling of my life saver,
my life was saved today all in God’s favor...
all in God’s favor.
A life of beautiful miracles has brought you to earth,
to see people’s greatness see what in them hurts.
Yeah and it’s a nice night for looking at the artist in me,
the dark stuff as well as the light,
black is beautiful, it’s depths is endless,
and it belongs to me, indigo so you can’t take my place.
Just be by my side and I’ll make more space
just be by my side, and I’ll make more space.
Positive lyrics
Bliss
peacefulness
envelop me,
calming mellow seas,
truthful like kind of gentle day dream,
Like the greatest warrior I work to soften,
I still want those sweet dreams,
So I cherish the thoughts
of my inner kid wanting mad change,
Then remembering the days playing footy with my best mates,
Those days weren't at all fake...
And I Focus, I focus on investing my time wisely,
Acquiring sound taste,
Inventing new synopses,
no copy and paste,
You won't ever see a carbon copy of this face
Instead entering a vibrant trance,
This can be like a positive chant,
channeling God's will,
To Love even when it hurts,
But always authentically
And even when alone on an island,
Kensuke's kingdom,
Hallelujah, God's alive in me,
Love, love you the best out of me,
Love rain on us.
And love, love can be posing to the heart,
Addiction takes a hold and you get enwrapped by mars.
I'll map out the streets and grapple with my sadness,
Dapper than Sapner, I'll bring that swagger,
I'm speaking about the future where there is still hope,
Dreams they'll flow like syrup and ideas they'll come and go.
,
And I want of course to see passion,
An emotion so great to fathom,
So have a good go,
At whatever you want to show,
Let's enjoy the ride,
No matter the weather,
Feel bliss with these peaceful lines.
Remember, you don't need to be the world's best to have great depth,
This is like a gentle prayer,
about love and peace, which I've decided to share,
Staying humble, never tumble, being ready to rumble,
Life's corruptions been tussling with me,
So I must keep calm as if on a good farm,
Still rise as fire burns within my soul,
Work for that health and wealth,
Use rhymes that hold sway,
Political, Spiritual, Sensual,
speak from the heart and the head,
This is our house and we will always use our nous,
We welcome the few who didn't fade
We welcome the few who didn't fade.
Love, love rain on me,
Love you bring the best out of us.
Move like the Ocean (Age like Water remix)
Cold and wavy like a great funambulist crossing a wire-
steady, creative and crazy,
Like the ocean- powerful, meaningful and dangerous,
an ice bath for your veins to help you find a new leash of life,
cos skyscrapers are what we traversed and we could do it in reverse,
we kept up that base, like how Lupin cracked another case,
innovative like a creative… wild, unrestrained and original
a tempest struck our souls, it’s depth and magnitude cinematic,
so we now move each other like the ocean,
utilising all our might, and pulsating as lightening bolts strike,
It’s fortunate the sun shines on the ones that need it,
so we can age like water kept cool, smoothing like gentle wine,
Just aim to relax with good syntax and good music,
and meditate- that god’s great,
even with the trials and tribulations that life brings,
and everything needing that consideration,
looking in the mirror, I can always regather my focus,
avoiding all that's cruel, polluted and skulduggery,
Then drifting along in this Samadhi,
plucky and diving in for that Grammy,
I take a look at the subconscious just for the thrill,
a reservoir deep below the ocean, where time stood still,
climbing up that next hill, a walk in the night,
dreams like Springfield, and the sky’s so high.
I’m a gentleman, and you can’t change my fate,
Akasha records have put it in place:
slick as any agent of fate, you can smell the envy and hate,
I know the subjective truth best comes out in art,
so I prefer to paint like Van Gogh and Dali, watch these lines,
We weren’t always entwined,
since the day that I met her love drizzles as I look at life,
it’s atmospheric like chyrsalism on a stormy night,
Easy breezing under the moon, we’re still healing…
Next stop book shop and studio, for words with feeling.
Wondering what’s cooking up….
wondering how far will our stories make a mark.
getting high writing these perfect scriptures,
feeling goosbumps hearing these mixtures,
Trusting inception vis a vis redemption
as we fight peer pressure, for it’s rarely right,
it’s more like that tangled web we weave
when we practice to deceive,
mastering being an individual makes the greatest knight,
that’s just my opinion, remember you’re one in eight billion.
One in eight billion.
moving forward like any good rook, I still perfect that warrior look.
I'm sick with determination and I'll smite the angels and the demons
as I correlate like coral resistant to plague, entering a new phase.,
where we dart like quanta in pulsating fields,
and feel our pulses jump as we vibrate like electric eels,
Learned, I'm allergic, like a Stark I’ll behead my own enemies,
And I just laugh at what’s daft but good-intentioned,
whatever the pain I go through,
remembering you make your own bed,
so I always make sure to not lose my head
Never out to fight, money flows like currents bit,
I’m rhyming about symphonies and apex sight,
Self lyrics
Self (J. Cole x JID Freestyle Type Beat ~ “Port Antonio“)
It’s an indigo night, pass me a light,
I’m a good rapper, so I don’t don a cloak for disguise,
A good dog’s all bark no bite,
Don’t confuse me though, I’m bear skinned tonight
I’ve been tectonic, like I’m subterranean,
that subterranean homesick alien,
it’s time to move on,
before an earthquake comes...
Radiohead said it best,
we’d become so uptight,
I’m mixed-race
and have spent time avoiding the rat race;
Those that couldn't stay pure,
stayed as blocks, that’s what I saw...
I traveled through time,
I traveled the sky,
to meet you, my other side.
A honey-moon, a prison,
Love built, blossomed, burnt,
turned to stone, and now we’re both missing
what we had felt,
it had felt so strong,
it can’t have been mistaken.
I guess we found out at least,
that what’s good doesn't always rot,
sometimes it more disappears,
as if sand dropped in a sand-dune.
Now I don’t know what to make of you,
Feelings sometimes feel like they aren’t shaped right?
It must be have our conditioning.
Take it personal, just not too far.
There is no flow in trying to connect,
when it’s safer at least with distance,
off the internet.
I traveled through space,
I traveled through my roots,
I traveled using gnosis and clairvoyant vision.
I’ve been tectonic and outcast.
from my homeland, my happy beginning,
where my soul was built and heaven was made;
sticky sour points grew my anger so great,
you gave me so much,
such a shame it was abruptly stopped all at once.
Forever a piece of my heart,
but that love that became unrequited,
tarnished hope and froze faith…
We just lacked that trust...
I travel through my mind,
I take a boat, a plane, a slow train,
this is to a new year,
keeping my heart, body and soul strong,
drying up every heart-broken tear.
It’s hard times, as the ones who were meant to help,
could not help but provoke toxic scars,
an obituary to the past.
The hurt needs it's place,
though I urge it to fade.
It’s the security blanket,
the reality and last remains,
smothering lies
I cannot take.
I need to follow my own tune and remain undeterred.
I feel pressure mount,
so I must build that scaffolding to protect my own house
and find that way to earn that self-respect.
One thing’s for sure, feelings are corruptible,
so I set out to bask in the joy of freedom in what’s lovable,
as patience is rewarded and pain makes our treasure,
because when it’s overcome, we value our endeavor.
Now there are days where,
I may feel like that dead end instrument.
No matter how I play, what path I take,
that smile hurts,
and I move not with actions and results,
but with shocks and jolts.
So I must learn to fight and play like an octopus might,
strengthened by my two hearts,
each the past home to my soul,
but knowing the main lead will be a third
that is leaving me a new individual,
letting me and us live our lives as we should.
Assumptions lyrics
Assumptions – (J Cole type beat - Let the soul cry (extended))
I was thinking of a girl,
because you know, I’ve been missing her,
I dreamt of kissing her,
those words she said warmed me up,
but the assumptions were killing her,
moments came and moments went,
I tried to forget,
I gave you all my love and you took it,
made me repent,
I couldn’t rehearse, this is more than a play,
what led me astray, she played with my heart and turned me away,
straight to the dark and I couldn’t be saved.
Man her heart was so soft but she changed so much,
I would of given it all but I saw the bad side of luck,
I just wish I didn’t give up,
so much time,
that it felt like a crime,
cried tears of blood all for the word, love.
I saw the bad side of life, (pause)
trials and tribulations,
had my mind breaking,
stuck in her haven,
misbehaving like a tax haven.
I bottled it up, and gave myself a beating,
heart racing,
what I’m chasing ain’t what I’m achieving,
but still I’m breathing,
no one’s kneeling,
yet still I bow cos I know what deceit is.
Just respect what I’m feeling.
Hard luck, hard to duck natural love,
calmer than karma but the karma is real,
I package it, now try to swallow it down,
but it keeps coming back up,
like bad food that I never wanted to touch,
just hope that, you’re seeing it now.
I keep myself dignified
but it requires so much trust.
Building dreams but I’m...
busy dealing with frowns,
four hours sleep and I know it ain’t enough,
look what she made up.
Hella rough, smoke myself down the drain,
still I keep myself up,
I ask myself what was it all for,
wonder if one day I’ll wake up,
You’re so sharp, so impossible to touch,
skin soft that it gave me a rush,
the way you used to blush,
made me fall in love but…
If I could only channel it now,
I don’t really know how,
just gimme some time, I’ll give it some thought,
let it spring like the ocean,
trust my emotions to bring me out,
like a life boat full of magic potions,
would you take me mixed with devotion,
cause my soul’s still crying out
my soul’s still crying out.
I stay half broken to ride this out,
until I lose focus, but I’m dreaded with doubt,
I’m dreaded with doubt
I'm dreaded with doubt...
dreamt of kissing her,
still I’m missing her
but the assumptions were killing her
Now I’m siding with doubt.
Investigate lyrics
Undercover investigator,
I serve only the creator,
Poor parasite’s got the devil in sight,
Sin may be sincere and evil may be life.
but that’s all fear, point blank with a knife,
Wearing polar-esque vision and refuse to sin in a fight,
I kill spitting navy seal style,
diffusing bombs that are so vile.
I hold it in, so I never shout
but instead let it out like a wave crashing all doubt.
That’s strong, don’t get me wrong,
I ain’t no executional thug, no stereotypical smuck,
occasionally therapuetical,
I know rough, and I know tough
and I know trust.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d only take you to a circus
therefore, where no one dies or deals in lies,
Monkey turns the lock, lights a fire,
and now he’s turned squire,
reflects, deflects...
absorbs like the sun, earth and a black hole,
developed beyond that primordial soup-bowl-
Righteous against those pious looking for advice,
So scientific with art, I test the haters who refuse to compromise.
Deceptive are my verses, metaphors like ice,
Cut them corners, land on a snake, that’s my dice,
Peaceful like chyrsalism on that stormy night,
Intricate like infinity I roller-blade and cut life,
Open oysters for others and give them back time.
Solve their puzzles using symphonies concocted by wine.
I make my mind like a jungle because the jungle's most alive,
I remember bravery when rational requires sacrifice
and I know that consequence is a maze you must survive,
if you couldn’t realise that you'd get lost and never thrive.
I spit verses so dogged you can't bulldoze my logic,
dreams so big, make you wish you were a kid,
Watch as I blow off the lid off the Bilderberg,
Robbin writes his magic-hood, this is his verse.
I see through bigots with infra red precision,
meet girls so cute they’re like purring kittens,
If you’re spitting slime this is an ultimatum...
leave it behind, I’ll even teach you how to rhyme.
That’s free, I utilise muse, music and poetically ruse
to get others to figure news that doesn’t just bruise.
I don’t mean my ego to be so great,
I don’t know if my verses lead to a higher ground,
I don’t know what life is all about,
This is like war, I get that there’s no cure,
just find the right opponent and keep it fair,
that’s the only life-line I find in my life.
Dreams lyrics
Dreams (Siren’s - Tame impala type beat)
Babe, I’ve been dreaming again,
picture this, we’re on those cool latin-american beaches again,
I ain’t afraid to tell you... I miss you,
I’ve been lonely,
and I’ve been missing your smile.
Enjoy this vibe,
Enjoy another cocktail,
Feel the haze of the sun enter your bones
and taste that lick of wine.
We’re rolling with the waves,
smoking mary-jane and finding shade.
Now imagine this, I’m taking you out,
I want you to imagine,
that we’re in England babe,
It’s raining and we’re going down town,
Soho, we’ll share Chinese with chopsticks,
then we’ll dance; figure it all out...
I’m taking you to a curious world,
Where you’ll never be lonely,
We’ll drift... sanity is ambivalent,
we’ll go by noiseless and unnoticed by the outer-world,
No photos to recollect,
these are the moments where only your feelings count,
and our memories will never let us down.
But I know you,
I know you love how I can change your world,
With you I get what I crave the most,
complexity, intracity, intelligence,
You love me for being me.
What more can I ask?
I just wonder whether too much time has passed?
I just wonder whether you’ll be too busy?
I just wonder whether you think I think with my head the most?
Because I just to keep you as mine even if only for a little while.
I want to see you glowing,
with the make-up off,
I’m lost in an ever-changing world,
but with you, I know I’m sound,
The world asks me not to criticise,
to bite my toungue,
to have a little less fun.
And yet, the world asks me to play an actor,
and live like I’m mad,
blind and have always won,
Like I’m madly in love….
I ask you, am I mad to be writing this to you?
I ask you, are we worth the time?
That is, are our feelings still alive?
In the meantime,
just enjoy the vibe,
as if life was a movie,
We can be nonchalent, and easy,
melting and drifting as the days go by,
enjoying the music, rain and sunshine
no heartbreak, just us, losing our minds one last time.
But maybe I’m just dreaming, maybe I’m not giving enough,
Maybe I’m stealing, maybe I’m not serious enough…
Well your worth it if you want to know, but our situations collide.
Is it just our fate…
Well, I’ll leave that to you to decide,
Anyway, you decide whether to leave me that message that one last time,
cos dreams linger and I believe, well I know, keep us most alive,
so baby, one question, will I be seeing you?
Freedom of Speech lyrics
Freedom of Speech (Truth hurts - J cole x JID type beat)
Truth hurts, this comes from the heart...
I’ve got a license to kill should you fall ill on this track,
This time unraveling the matrix,
Wondering whether it's true those drones are alien shit?
It turned out Quantative Easing was just cheating,
desolation, they blew up their assets beyond redeeming,
looking into the future I can read our fate,
capital will be worthless after labour was sold,
you think I'm joking, think twice,
the fallen angels propped up by central banks
performing the task of terrorists to the common man,
we're heading for a crash,
an inside job no different to 9-11,
As Goebbels stated-
the bigger the lie the more it will be believed,
you already know the CIA performed MK-Ultra, and played God,
I mean you better believe it, propaganda told you to leave it.
Faith in magichood, on the basis of Robbin stealing...
March against animal torture and pure hate,
look what’s in those meals that Tyson makes...
Gaddafi was near sacred in Libya, and now there’s slave pits,
as NATO impoverishes the world just like the Western tax havens did.
No-one can wait for the bureaucrats to wind up in their own super-max prisons,
a taste of their own medicine for that war on recreational drugs,
include the profit snakes of the pharma industry
and the virologists.
Kuru, SMON, Ebola and Swine Flu,
the plandemic was nothing new.
It’s so apparent healthcare lacked welfare,
The war on Aids and Cancer led to on AZT and rage.
that’s what technocratic globalization did kids,
it put capitalism deep down in the grave
People just pretend they don’t know,
so kleptocratic we're living in communism now...
seriously, real wages in china rise whilst in the west they decline,
as the billionaire class steal from the middle class.
and as neoliberalism feeds war and not mouths...
Go hard or go home, this ain’t some no-show,
minds a jungle, no time to crumble,
I don’t worry about falling I’m going all in,
trying to be humble cos I see those soul-calling,
Abstract with the taste, I still have faith that we’ll be balling,
an ace card to show up in good time with a good face,
it’s time to chase what passion dictates.
This is anthropology, I study so smart,
that way monopolies won't last.
Haphazard with no waste in these verses,
I'm half Tarantula I've got such bite.
By tacit agreement we’re orbited by the Magellanic cloud;
you’re feeling kenopsia so I make you feel proud.
Never pays to be too loud, so I germinate ideas to disperse the crowd.
And I’m tired of that hard-core stereotypical-
I’m slept on for being that much more original,
Let me be more lyrical:
soft, clever, mystical...
I'll suspend thee in a strange saw-see,
and ignore talk of succulent orgies,
as I go deeper in this like a funk-meter:
a bit more than just this pure theatre,
so hear me out on this soliloquy,
my rhapsody, my melody.
And my words will bring you up.
Put yourself down, so elegantly, eloquantly
and magically I’ll bring you back up,
Water Shaman lyrics
Priest (Aron May x Isaiah Rashad Type Beat - rituals)
This is to the ones that we love,
all work makes Jack a dull boy,
Realise the errors of your ways,
don’t count the days
till your dead,
have fun instead.
Wake up and look after me,
Finances first; safe and steady;
I'll be getting ready.
I'm a Taurus
tranquil 80% of the time;
as long as the bull's not out.
Look after my finances like a diva,
Say what I think like a real leader,
and every-day's getting that liquidity.
I look after my health.
Low stress,
working without enemies,
Avoiding jealousy is the key,
so I stay humble;
make other's comfortable;
avoiding those who over-grumble.
And enjoy the base, because
I've got the Lord Vishnu empowering me.
Ready to be transparent, black, blue or green;
Depends on how deep I go into this sea.
This is Feng Shui with words;
working with Allah, Krishna and fluidity;
like a Bhaist I respect the religions;
use them as guidelines but stay holistic,
as rules are made to be broken,
Rudolf Steiner predicted the most to me,
But I Follow the Taoist watercourse way,
Go to Acupuncturists for better circulation;
No river runs straight,
except those man maid,
don't sell my senses,
and refuse to be a faker -
I'm not a Dubai monstrosity.
And today's getting more watery.
It's liquidity,
and the best things in life comes for free.
Yeah and it's clean as mountain streams.
Yeah, and it's clean as mountain streams.
This mantra heals,
life's a mess but
today I'm getting that liquidity,
And it's clean as mountain streams;
yeah and it's clean as mountain streams.
I repeat this mantra heals,
yeah, it's clean as mountain streams,
this mantra heals.
This is to the one’s that we love
When all’s said and done,
We still hardly know anything,
We are affected by realities
beyond the ones we are conscious of,
how mysterious is that?
This is to the one's that we love,
cos life is that paradox.
You know the greatest fighter is not the most fierce,
since gentleness is the first lesson in self-defense,
whilst creativity is the first lesson in worthwhile attack,
it's back to the basics, as I teach you how to best fight.
Forcefulness will only work when your drive is to create,
so build your own home like any great painter,
be gentle, playful and trust mother nature,.
I hope that we make it soon,
Maybe we do, or maybe that’d be too good to be true.
Maybe we do... or maybe, maybe that’d be too good to be true.
Bring the Rain lyrics
This is Leo G,
it's a big up to the heavens where I wonder if Tupac rhymes,
Dealing with the travesties life brings,
I sing and watch what my mood brings,
Hoping it will bring the light...
Dealing with frauds and ghostwriters is a daily activity,
Watch as I blow off all their cobwebs,
Cutting through their malarkey,
I freeze charlatans to the spot,
And drift like travelers seeking haven,
I rhyme with unite and gather strength for the battle,
The battle to recapture our freedom,
That's financial with a capital f,
So it's f*** you to the haters and duckers,
Cos I'm here to stay,
Rapping, I'll bring the rain,
Talking of pain that pride causes,
I put a lot of heart into these spoken words,
Like in life swimming with the sharks,
it's scary but its safer than you might think,
Like a fridge I keep it cold,
Working it out and getting the drift,
But don't forgot the marshmallows and bonfires,
If you think I don't like to party I'll show you a good night...
So it's good night to the haters for now,
You should see, it takes me just 20 minutes to write these lines.
Don't like to be indoors, but just like it outside.
Where we can float as if on cloud 9.
This is growth season, and I'm bringing the vibe.
So sit back, relax and chill like fine wine,
Find the time to bring your best mind,
Hold it still, keep it steady as we make the dynamite,
Cos we're blowing up the system someday,
That's what's not going to stay.
We build the future's mainstream cutting with these words,
so let's be more cutting-edge...
People play their games, and it's divide and conquer,
And where best to start but our sexuality,
We've got the LGBT community defending Muslim territories where they would be lynched,
But that's life, and maybe it's wondrous as both sides may get to accept each others points...
like seeing enemies unite, it's just a strange sight to see.
But c'mon it's the 21st century and we all know, penis and vagina envy run amok,
so our animas and animus's stutter when trying to unite,
I ain't afraid to tell it..
But we know what's right, we know how to keep our s*** tight.
Just keep it natural.
And right now it's right that women get some power,
Because there's too much at stake and a slip and a nuclear bomb's unleashed,
But just respect our differences, men and women are not that alike.
I mean there's truth to the saying that men are from Mars, with testosterone keeping us vigilant,
Take a child from a women and you reek wickedness,
I ain't afraid to say it...
And we're blowing up the system some day,
And we're blowing it up with a capital f,
That's a f*** u to the government's and a f*** u to the central banks..
As we keep our s*** tight...
Cos life's like a tight rope and only a million miracles is why we're alive,
it's survival of the most adaptive, and it pays to be able to still dream, a better path, a better way, a better day...

Intact lyrics
Intact (Kendrick Lamar x Radiohead Type Beat - 'Intact')
This ones to those that thought they could silence or change me,
in a way that went against my volition,
This ones to expose their schadenfreude for what it really is.
This ones to the critics.
Frankly, you haven’t got a leg to stand on,
You think you walk the walk,
I’d show you the door,
It comes across you ain’t argued with poignancy before,
I’ve got a big mouth and I ain’t going to close it,
Intellectual with these words, I defend the good schoolkid inside me,
I’m sick of your sly cheating,
Your pettty power-games don't fool me,
You’re only a fool painting me a clown,
You're authoritarian because you lack nuance,
I have my own technique, I’m not a copy,
We live in a world on their phones,
I communicate still, I ain’t a drone,
There’s no chips on my shoulder because I say it to your face,
I’m balanced, learn to relate,
I only trust a sad judge,
Your lies are so blatant,
what do you expect?
The company you keep,
You’ll only attract those wanting to be
manipulated or to manipulate,
turn you into snakes and sharks,
like corporations in some lousy horah,
There’s no chance of a scapegoat in my war,
I’d rather blame you all
Critics in plural and I’m hunting,
People like to ambush,
smart but that’s not my style,
Prefer to keep it mysterious,
though I work on having the last laugh,
life’s much much about the quality of the laugh,
and I ain’t arrogant, life’s full of surprises and I know luck plays it’s part.
I don’t like where the world’s headed,
mental health issues are the norm,
and the economy’s never been so tainted,
people’s work holds no integrity,
I’ll work on them like a thorn,
We’re just needing that money,
but jobs now only suit people-pleasers chasing status,
I’ll get rich without faking it,
I grew up rich, but as an adult I'm poor,
ask what went wrong, I'll tell you the law,
Still, I’ll have my highs and escapes,
and there’s no controlling it,
I’ll trust the people on the street,
but not on reputation,
purely through experience.
It’s about respect for the story,
Reality’s stranger than fiction,
I just hope you can take it.
I've written two blogs to give my take on it,
cos I'm sick of the elites and demagogues lacking depth,
I'm yin and yang with these arguments,
Like looking at two truths that clash,
just take just one side and you’ll crash,
and I call it a left-brain block,
and I know when to soften,
I spit arduous,
but not all my stuff’s about masculinity and that hard,
I’m a soft-boy, bad-boy, good-boy and all that jazz...
I’m a slow train and there’s no stopping me
without multitudes getting hurt,
you can get off and on when you like,
consent is the main law,
I trust god, but also that I have god in me,
I know there are times where confusion reigns,
as you figure stuff and yet don’t know what moves to make,
I ain't Ned Flanders but I like to keep it sacred,
Mercy and compassion are sacred and on which we all depend,
Treat your neighbor as you'd like to be treated,
That said, I defend the power of choice,
so I choose whether to forgive or to forget,
the past is fragmented, but we’re intact in the present,
resilient, and piecing it together to make that simpler future
where all flows.
I think prayer needs to be unique and this is what I speak.
Sweetness Fights to Endure lyrics
Sweetness fights to endure (Tame Impala and Pink Floyd type beat- Paint the sky)
The colours of you play on my mind,
soft, gentle, hear this sound,
and find that you have the time to unwind.
I was so bitter and full of hate,
thought that I had sealed my fate,
to seeing only in black and white, no respite
but now I’m scorched and warmed, as love finally poured.
I move with it tenderly,
that’s supernatural, transcendental, celestial love,
let’s paint the sky tonight,
I want to bring back love, romance and romantic sacrifice,
to take a sniff at those roses will suffice,
but I respect those thorns,
that is, to have trust even when our love hurts
I saw that look you had
in the reflection the other day,
it told me to go away,
but all I see is you and me,
I don’t want regrets,
so don’t leave me with just a silhouette,
I want to see your smile, so lunette...
It's like looking at an empty canvas, wondering where to put that first brush;
Let’s paint the sky red, rose and purple tonight and make it count,
take turns driving through the cosmos with all our doubts,
scream at the top of our lungs and let it all out;
Listen to music and get ourselves high;
figures are converging on me at night,
dancing bringing me insight;
painting pictures, lights are getting dimmer,
your walls are lately wearing thinner,
might need some more liquor,
Cos it’s waves crashing down on earth,
crushing gravity, I’m channeling a re-birth
as synesthesia takes place, mushrooms for your ears,
I leave it opaque,
like how whirlpools of matter form galaxies impossible to shake,
that's a lot to take,
What burns is sweet,
what breaks is sensitive,
what’s tasted sweetness fights to endure
I know you've been heartbroken before,
and so I want to find that cure,
it’s like birds chirping on a sunny afternoon,
the differences in tune are what so subtly move,
elegantly scientific with these words,
like looking back at our first date,
so much chemistry we had to stay up late,
I’m talking about ascending through trust,
that’s how we’ve connected,
I work on making your heart cotton candy,
you wear it on your sleeve so I know you’ll fight for what’s right,
Like currents rippling into one another,
we flow into this new phase of perfect lovers,
that look in your eyes,
shows vulnerability you can’t disguise,
I feel it too, so this is all something new.
Let’s just paint the sky tonight...
Running before it’s too late,
my aim is not to frustrate,
no time to stand still,
we need to reach the pinnacle,
I refuse to be cynical,
it’s pleasure over matter,
we’ll do it for the thrill.
all we do is commit,
to reach the summit,
to make that great leap,
wearing wings and a parachute;
breathe deep with this beat,
you’re the lungs I needed to find my feet.
Feel ecstasy from your colours.
Let’s get out our freaks,
and enjoy how we hold mystique.
I’m talking about prophesising a new era,
we’ll be potent, I see the potential,
let’s ride with it,
dive into the cosmos with all our might,
What burns is sweet,
what breaks is sensitive,
what’s tasted sweetness fights to endure
and so I want more,
… and so I want more,
You Don't Know What Loves Means lyrics
I've been feeling caged like I've been dealing with mad hate,
You get what you attract so I just have to remember that,
We’re all unique, perfect odd-balls in this far out galaxy of cosmic matter,
so I ignore what’s mainstream to get my point across,
We’re in a competition to make it to the top so
I look through the fog and into the maze,
eyes closed, the wrath of envy is so powerful to taste,
an instrument that can slow down the whole human race,
I gaze where it’s all green and murky,
essence is the matter and so I sense that sensual base,
cos I’m sick of waste and misplaced faith...-
let the confusion take place, creative destruction, menacing and enticing,
just as danger and love brew when shit goes mad-
The ubiquitous doctor of magic, a monster working in his dungeon…
How many opportunities can any man make?
See I dreamt I saw my headstone with no legacy in sight….
So I put down an axe to grind and ground it out,
talked it out in the astral realms, then put Steez on the case,
Dreamt of clockwork orange and tension and struggled with a torturous sage,
Played nice and friendly but know it’s about learning the game,
Cos impossibility is that we live in a standstill, it all about the cards you play,
See I had this strange day,
you see nothing ever would seem the same,
But in the end it was like ink on rain,
Like the touch of magical realism
I experienced the true meaning of forgive and forget,
of ego-death,
Cos some rocks are best left untouched,
or once turned over and returned then to the same place,
for some later date,
and that’s deja-vu, I feel like these lines are not new.
Take note though a misanthrope still dwindles,
That’s an evil that takes time to suppress. I’m no saint.
Feeling like liberation, yet awfully used,
like I just escaped the zoo.
Cos I just have to get rid of that old crew and I want something new.
that’s what you gotta do when evil’s all about,
And it makes me sick in the stomach to preach and shout,
You don’t know what love means until you let them go,
but better that than to be treated like a leach,
when the mission was originally to make peace.
And you get what you attract so the lessons are all about,
sometimes that’s just how relationships go,
and no man can vouch to be the most important mage,
whether they see the jinn or just believe,
so I'm just going to rap like a caged bird, banishing the banshies,
knowing no tree can grow to heaven,
unless its roots reach down to hell,
and that’s truth’s most powerful spell.
So let’s risk it and take that tour,
I feel like we're on that highway to heaven and hell,
fair is foul and foul is fair,
so let’s hope it’s just the smartest detour…
cos there’s a million changes I would like to see in place,
but for now I have to sit and wait,
And whilst storms may tear at the parchment of your past,
I know at other times they will clear your path,
I’m working hard, but that line repeats,
you don't know what love is till you let them go,
but let them go you must to find your feet.
You lyrics
I was working hard in my dungeon,
when I came across you,
you rolled me off my feet, felt like a torpedo
We were serially high, like heaven rolled us a spliff
hearing the cadence, rhythm so alluring,
I saw you saw the chance to make it big,
I told you to grab it, enjoy the big lift,
Said ‘it won’t be easy, life’s full of wierd twists’
Said - 'Sometimes you gotta lie, sometimes breathe through your teeth,
Said ‘Just make sure it’s worth it, something that you can live with’.
Said ‘Criticisms come and go, but only your conscious knows’
Said ‘If only you knew what life put me through, you would know’
She laughed, deflected, thought that too serious,
I knew she had a point, and so rolled with it,
She was sharp and cool like ice to move,
Knew that her potential should see her through,
Type of women with pride to kill
But who’d let it out from time to time,
One you could enjoy going for a walk with,
But yet we would never find that time,
Anyway, we took it slow,
knowing we’d just be left with a ‘see you soon’.
Much too independent for anything more,
She said, why you working so hard?
I said ‘I’ve got points to prove…
and times getting harder’
Said ‘family and friends are too crestfallen’
Said ‘work feels like my only friend beyond a few nights like this’
Said ‘I’m far too gone for the money and cars…
Said ‘memories though make me live that bit longer’
She said ‘why so serious’, and felt it so lonely,
she wished me luck and told me I panged her heart,
touching but remorseless, fate would have us meet to drive us apart,
I said ‘you’ve got people to protect’
I said ‘your busy living your life, living it to the fullest, enjoy it and make it last
I Said ‘I can’t commit to anything more’
’She said she knew, that I was just a ‘see you soon’
I Said ‘don’t judge me, just I still have that hungry predator inside’
I Said ‘not trying to be a virtue signaler, but the world created a hole to hide me in’
‘that’s why I work, to keep myself from being disguised’
She Said ‘I know you see me for more than that’
She said, she knew, ‘that it was alright’
She said ‘you make your own movies, work till it’s daylight’
She said ‘I’ll be seeing you, on the other-side’.
Celebration lyrics
Yeah, I've been holding this back...
This is to thank my girlfriend for getting me back on track,
This is to celebrate a new force
Cold and fierce
That way we'll keep our world from turning flat,
We're rising like the sunshine,
Keeping it lit has been the grind,
I won't rewind, just aim high,
Let euphoria warm our bones,
And let her love be all I need to feel complete,
And we'll keep on surfing through time,
never bailing cos we caught the perfect tide.
And when I see your face,
Without being no basket-case,
I think that there's no better person for me,
We'll make it to the top,
And there we'll enjoy the vista,
It'll be like a fixture enjoying good mixtures,
And that's the base, all in good taste,
My girl takes me elsewhere,
Where I no longer wish to hide,
And that shits tight.
Like a witch she can dazzle my mind,
And I find that gorgeous,
Makes me indulgent.
We've always been that bit luxurious,
I'm 29, and have been through the thick of life,
Know what it's like to be ostracized, alienated and actually hated.
Still not one person's ever called me boring,
And that's because I'm meticulous with my relationships,
So I'll work on keeping spinning your mind,
And that'ls why it's only a matter of time,
Till my thoughts connect with others like the pyramids across tectonic lines, with all these rhymes..
And they say vanity is our only sanity,
Well, as long as you keep narcisuss in the trunk,
It'lll keep you growing,
So long as treated with tact,
It's all a matter of fact.
And you're right babe,
Jealousy is a deadly sin,
But I aim to kill them all
with the love you give.
Yeah, I want to celebrate us tonight.
i want us to feel that rush,
I let you enjoy my good and know my bad,
That way, we'll stop the relationship ever turning sour,
And we'll maximise all of compassion's power,
Avoiding what's mush, and instead growing like a flower,
That's the vision to celebrate life,
So let's keep on flowing cos we've overcoming what's demeaning and rife,
And we will always find some truth in the other side,
When our feelings collide,
Cos in there resides the most precious knowledge and power.
Is it our fear of intimacy that keeps us vulnerable?
Well I aim to protect,
And I like to feel immortal with you by my side.
Cos I know one thing matters in life,
To love long enough just to make it count.
Celebration babe
Loving you tonight
Age Like Water lyrics
Age Like Water– (Kendrick Lamar soul type beat - Freezing)
Wavy as a man on a wire, steady, creative, crazy,
skyscrapers are what we traversed and we could do it in reverse,
kept up that base, like how lupin cracked the case,
innovative like a creative, cinematic on these pages,
It’s all about perspective, we’re working as a collective.
getting high off writing them perfect scriptures,
feel goosbumps as you makes them mixtures,
mind traveling to where’s next best chilling,
Barcelona in my vision, passing so slick, it’s no mission
rather show than keep it hidden,
play with flare it’s in my nature,
Comes with a peaceful soul,
The subjective truth best comes out in art,
I prefer to paint like Van Gogh, watch these lines,
We weren’t always entwined,
since the day that I met her love drizzles as I look at life,
it’s peaceful like chyrsalism on a stormy night,
The sun shines on the ones that need it,
I aim to relax with good syntax and good music,
and meditate- that god’s great,
even with the trials and tribulations that life brings,
and everything needing that consideration
looking in the mirror, I regather my focus,
avoiding all that's hocus-pocus,
Then drifting along in this Samadhi,
plucky and diving in for that Grammy,
I look at the subconscious just for the thrill,
a reservoir deep below the ocean, where time stood still,
climbing up that next hill, a walk in the night,
dreams like Springfield, and the sky’s so high.
I pulsate as lightening bolts strike,
Age like water kept cool, smoothing like gentle wine,
I’m a gentleman, can’t change my fate,
Akasha records have put it in place:
I’m onto that next phase,
beaches, sun, kisses and melancholy haze.
Easy breezing under the moon, I’m still healing…
Next stop book shop, for words with feeling.
Wondering what’s cooking up, I’ve been teasing,
more like teaching – these rhymes are so revealing,
Honing in using proprioception,
trusting inception vis a vis redemption,
Fighting peer pressure for it is rarely right,
it’s more like that tangled web we weave
when we practice to deceive,
mastering being an individual makes the greatest knight,
that’s just my opinion, remember you’re one in eight billion.
One in eight billion.
Dart like quanta in pulsating fields,
My pulse jumps as I vibrate like electric eels,
moving forward like any good rook,
I perfect that warrior look.
Still I laugh at what’s daft,
whatever the pain I go through,
remembering you make your own bed,
so I always remember to not lose my head.
I’m rapping about symphonies and apex sight,
never out to fight, money flows like currents bite,
dodging them creepy-crawlers,
bless the Tao and Tao makes life,
I said bless the Tao and the Tao makes life
Snakepits
Snakepits (Skepta X Professor Green x Giggs "Solid Snake" UK GRIME Type Beat)
This is self-talk, this is self-power
So they said I’ve got no anger... well, it’s time to show my angry side,
even though 'im usually a laid back guy,
we all work to express, express your vision....
I’m a little bastard, still furious inside, a little Stewie still resides
a little jealous, trained to be a genius, and yet my nerd died
I’ve dealt with betrayal, sickness and have failed.
But I remember heaven wouldn’t be so alluring if filled with only beautiful paintings, no ugly gargoyles in sight.
You get me.
I’ve even asked for anger management sessions with professionals I recognize I’m that hard kid inside,
I’ve nearly died to paint these emotions...
So I ask, just don’t paint me innocent like some pervert wants.
I’ll get irate, total vibrate,
intimidate and I’ll retaliate
like a bomb hates I’ll want my space,
so save my face, as I say
we're all that bit innocent at the end of the day,
but fuck your peace sign,
because we're also so blatantly prone to evil.
I won’t wait for you to stab me in the back.
Fuck your control, coercive and
fuck your reluctance to take a side,
even your side, I know at least what it’s worth,
you think all’s material and that we just die,
that’s why you leave it alone, it’s all such a waste of time,
I can play a gator, if that’s what it takes to defend my life,
but fuck my inability to defend,
fuck my inability to grow inside,
fuck the black and white lie,
and my mayhem left unchallenged giving me no respite,
fuck my cowardness, fuck my anger, fuck my pride crushed by institutions telling me what’s right,
fuck my doubts and callousness, and don’t tell me that I’m one eyed blind.
I'm a phycic and psychopomp.
and watch out for the snake pits,
these voices and demons breaking through, man, may sometimes seem most right,
this ain’t the hateful eight, it’s the hateful wait,
and it’s the full spectrum of emotions
and fuck if I know who really won,
just that the alligator survives,
and we’re left reeling, echoing 25th hour, real time.
You´re busy solving conundrums on how to evade the jungle inside,
I’m busy dealing with these phobias of those evasive from real life,
that includes me, I’m a bloody maniac, cynic and dare say, fuck your feelings if you have no wolf inside,
I’ll take my mask off, fuck your feelings if you think institutions are doing a good job marshelling life,
fuck the mind control and our dead presidents mismanaging life, using fucking robots to contain it.
Jumping over the snake pits, sometimes I just embrace it, no matter how abrasive,
you only get to make it as far as you get to make your boundaries this one life.
Is the anger worth the headache, that's the do or die?
It may be time to escape, its what I’m warning, though we’re all venting a little inside.
Dia de los Muertos lyrics
Dia de los Muertos (J Cole Type Beat - Survivor's guilt II)
This is a letter to death,
I have a lot to get off my chest.
The other day you took a friend,
Young, full of life, and with a sense of adventure,
His passion was being a BMX rider, he was so smart that in his own barn he had built his own house,
A car crash and it was over,
Death you were so unjust,
Then there was Gordo, my most friendly dealer...
His name meant tubby and the wrong people thought he was a schemer;
truthfully he just wanted to change.
They shot him dead and his father, just out of pure bad taste,
Another innocent murder victim because drugs are illegal,
Death, you love the black market,
you show us no respect,
or is it us,
too conservative?
Whatever the case, another young body winds up in a coffin.
And what about that girl called Sol, who wanted therapy?
Her name means sun,
She got stuck in an anexo by accident, it called itself a clinic
banged her head against the walls to get out,
they tied her up and told her to shut up.
I knew her sense of humor was sharp and she lived to be a nurse,
She took her own life to add to the body count.
That anexo oversaw three suicides in a matter of months,
still ignorants chose to praise that place and call it a clinic.
Death how do you handle those who self-obliterate,
caused by neglectful environments and self-hate?
And all these lives died younger than me,
in the space of a year I was in Mexico,
and yet we Mexicans celebrate you like no other race;
adorn you with flowers, and sweets and bless the dead.
Do you like us that bit more?
Death, you have me looking over my shoulder.
And that day had me wondering,
See I think you're a paradox,
that you come and give us a chance,
a choice - to forgive or to forget,
to re-incarnate or to self-obliterate,
I imagine there's always consent
Only death you never die to us,
and life feeds off your memory,
I guess, to me, you're that eternal monster or saint,
for you exist in all life, even as I live my cells dies,
I just was wondering why?
Death you give me the shivers and make me cry.
Till we meet, it's just my legacy I decide,
Death do you hear me?
Just calm down
You've had me looking over my shoulder.
Old Dog lyrics
The long and short of it is I’ve fallen sixty feet,
but I’m back up, gunning for more,
wait till I find that funk,
I find myself always in control, but that rarely let’s me be smooth,
It’s a paradox, I’m built to confuse,
Watch as I turn my solar plexus green,
the result - I know Slytherin and Gryffindor like my two best mates,
Medicinal in these rhymes, I vibrate through time and work to relate,
I work with genius savants, savages and your average Joes,
Never doubt about people’s quality, it shines through in spades,
I have skin in this game, and everything to lose, and am out to hit the jackpot like Donkey Kong;
Racing through madness I may be hell bent on setting the pace,
but other times the best tactic’s just to sit on the fence,
with me it’s innocent till proven guilty, that’s freedom in my world;
Especially as we’re all out to compete,
too many trying to say that they are better than you;
it's boring and I need to find these shortcuts to keep myself entertained,
cos we’re extremely cessated or extremely out of place.
Sometimes its survival of the fittest, so I’ve put on a good show,
played it hard, given it everything and I’ve been moved,
like Marco Zuluaga watching theater,
beastly with emotions, I’m emotional and all over the place,
and my Jerkl and Hyde no longer knows who’s who.
I’m sorry when it hurts, but I spit out my feelings and hope for the best,
I’m still in shape and have always set out to save others face,
occasionally as dangerous as a hippo, I work on keeping calm,
the odd fight, but nothing too serious, no trips to the hospital for any friends or foes,
my loose cannon is on a lease, I promise, but I’m a villain if repressed so please just show some respect;
Still I mean to love, and remember to have faith,
but I’m now an uncle, it’s crazy – they grow so fast,
I make my case, life is austere and luxurious,
precious and yet sorrowful,
I feel like I’ve been struck by lightening,
blessed to be electric and yet I rehearse,
you ought to move at the pace of the slowest
and you’ll get to your destination most fast,
It’s the tale of the tortious and the hare,
and I go with these times,
I'm the hare taking the nap, but
trusting nature to make the most out of life…
Dusk lyrics
I look through my life and recollect,
Memories come and go,
It's all a bit of a show,
Some days I keep it basic, apagio,
keep it relaxed and just spell out the crux of it,
We're grown up cos we struggle so hard,
We get what we need,
it's not what we want.
There's no batman... Instead there's Attlee,
and a thousand Hugh Abotts,
and that brings me some peace.
Let there be no doubt,
the peace mellows me out.
Despite that I push, it's part of my nature,
I enjoy the clash,
raw feelings, the hurt is part of the art,
Pungent with my rhymes, I get it out on paper,
and then see how it sounds.
Work is a torture as much as pleasure,
like how pain and pleasure co-exist,
It's all about how much you care,
and how much you share of you that's rare.
Growth is hard to come by these days,
I know right, life's a bitch, that's why we need to relax,
As a social extrovert but introverted writer,
some coach, some joke, some care, some give space, some don't give a fuck...
I exhaust myself and then find myself exhausted,
whilst I think hard and wander through the myriad of social sincerity and social masks.
Holding an identity that both traps and self-assures,
and with each spoken word I find that identity tugs harder,
I find myself semi-conscious because I'm half-braced for that fight,
Life is a battle of energies as much as a peaceful ride.
Still, it's better to be wary, cos I pride time
and I know to reach your potential you need to be wise,
even just at times to survive.
So I keep it basic,
a million small steps,
a million small strokes,
a million repetitions and
we may approach something resembling right.
If life were a puzzle then it'd take a million songs
playing at once just to form an adequate picture,
and that's madness that fizzles like a monster can.
But my drive is to keep puzzling,
keep it going, keep it flowing
and at least see what I find out.
We're all blind at the end of the day,
blind to see hearts,
blind to see truths,
blind to recognise bliss,
and the questions running so deep through our veins and in our genes.
That's our fight with god.
And yet we see enough to get us this far, and in that there's solace.
Another day, good food, company, and proper sleep; making end's meet.
This is grown up talk, keeping it mellow, basic and calm.
Yeah, and I think magical realism will come back hard,
but for now, I find it's a fight just to keep
yourself from being all bark, no bite;
following a vision may take a million steps ,
a million strokes, a million repetitions,
but it will keep you mellow, and everything alright.
Ghosts with Sad Secrets lyrics
Truthfully this feels like a mortal sin,
And now I know what bloody hell means,
they always say everyone hates the truth,
Nature has her secrets and this reflected in her,
I was just going within
when I felt something too familiar,
Something so sublimely subtle passed over me
I felt like I could pin it down...
but then all I was left with was a surprise so deep,
In came the softest of voices and the walls began to spin,
And all I was left with were your thousand cries, so desperate
and a thousand questions began hanging over me.
And I was suddenly ruptured by those killer notes,
most fearful, my hair stood on end and I began to tremble,
These questions, precarious, tender and somber,
they dug their heels into me.
I worried and searched for answers,
but something gnawing told me it was not in my hands.
Still I just cannot see enough.
And yet, you,, you are what blinds me.
Just parts of a picture forms,
all distorted but fluid,
like the softest of your screams,
And I was overcome by your grief,
Above all, you reminded me of something so familiar;
something too deep it could bring the death of me;
Something that's too precious to me,
a secret I'd like to keep...
And for that I'm too grateful.
And that's the danger.
And I was overcome by your grief.
Trapped in an emotion that does not give in,
Like a magical ghost breaking up all the commotion of my daily life,
Is it skeletons you bring out of me or is it nectar too sweet?
If time is so precious, i fear now it will mean nothing to me...
You're too far away, gone now and that's too is what occupies me.
That told me what I had just lost and won,
In a moment, I felt catapulted to brand new ground
and nothing would stand still any more.
And when I look back now I begin to forget me,.
I cannot help it and I don't like it either.
Your ghost now haunts me.
And all I do is just wonder whether you still have that same dream?
I just wonder whether a person so trapped in a life
that tore her apart could ever lose such a precious heart.
And I just wonder too many things... too many things.
Because I knew what you gave me in the past cost you so much,
your brutal secret was what showed me all of your softness,
I'm not sure my subconscious will ever forgive me for receiving it,
And it cost me as much , let me tell you that.
And yet I found out with your killer notes that you couldn't escape it,
what you kept hidden was too much,
And truthfully that feels more and more like my Achilles heel.
like I had thought could change it.
now i'm like a ghost too, thanks a lot.
Now I'm in bloody hell thinking of us,
And yet, returning to indifference is so obsolete,
So why did nature do this to me?
Why did nature do this to you?
I ask, I beg, I plead.
Was it me?
Can you answer my question please?
Was it me or was it nature's choice?
Is it even possible for nature to be so cursed, so confused?
All I know are two thing though...
All I know now is that in all your life you gave me half your secrets,
even though you had to risk everything,
And that I fell into oblivion.
Because all I know now too is that in all the rest of lifetime
your secrets and reasons you will keep safe and hidden,
that you were trapped halfway and went back
and that means deleting me.
and I am left knowing there was only once a chance.
That's what leaves me with a thousand questions digging into me.
And ghost, I'm hearing your sweet cries at night, but they don't tell me that you're alright.
Coming For You lyrics
This is Leo G with a little l,
Yeah I know you've heard it before,
I'm in it for the love,
just got that hungry predator inside;
I'm a meteorite chasing good times,
Rock my vibe little lady,
I'll flow like a speedboat managing life.
I'm the king of the divas and I'll cut through all your demons,
We're on it for a ride, a lift, a pull,
a dance with the devil, you and I, and time,
No-one dances as hard as you and I tonight.
I'll bring the swagger, you bring the dynamite.
It's combustion. I see it in your eyes.
So smooth with these rhymes,
It's hotter than lava here when I watch you melt,
just dance for me one more time and we'll cool it with Moscow mules and ice,
I'll rap like Steez, Kendrick, Cole, Mick Jenkins, Pete Rock, but I'm Leo tonight,
I see it in your eyes, but I want to see it in those hips,
curvaceous like you, they need to be cessated
I'll put strawberries in your mouth and we can play like tigers in real life,
that's dangerous...
I love you babe, I mean it, it's all coming out,
all of the spice,
so just rock this vibe, lets get it on tonight,
play your heart out and we'll reach cloud nine,
I'm telling you all you need to know with these lines,
I'm telling you all you need to know with these lines.
On Track lyrics
This is mad times and I'm Leo G,
it's raining and I'm busy finding my feet,
learning the ropes of a new country and a new breeze,
I won't dwell on the past anymore,
Let's open up some new doors,
Take a plane, hasta DF and enjoy the tequilas,
I'm busy dreaming of sunset boulevards and making it big with my film script,
I write these lines as times get dangerous,
Enter the ideas, paper over the cracks, roll with the stoners,love is madness
and it's a rollercoaster I have to step off,
I'm a business man at heart and I make the right rhymes, singing to myself at night,
I find a new leash of life, nunca me rindo, I'll learn Spanish by heart.
I'm sick with determination and I'll smite the angels and the demons,
I correlate like coral resistant to plague, entering a new phase..
I make these endorphins feast on the crime of an acid trip gone bonkers where luck got me out,
That's how you learn the real shit fast,
So I recognise when I have great doubts, God got me through it,
and humans chose to show faith so they will be recompensated.
I never give in, esto es todo, la furia ingles,
Learned, I'm allergic, bowl through people placed upside down, now that's just creative,
Like hopscotch and darting between monoliths,
I see what comes through the mist,
Never give in, find the way - lock and key,
This is a killer's instinct and I'll paint the sky vanilla.
Never hush the truther in me, I know when it's detrimental and when it's most hot.
Not a show pony, but for now left lonely and tolerating my own clown because I know how to live like the joker...
Next step is mayham, but I'll keep up my fight, I'm slick as any agent of fate, you can smell the hate.
That's right, you may never forget me,
I'm Leo G and I write no sleaze.
God bless you all, and that comes from the soul.
God bless you all, and that comes from the soul.
Truth talks.
So truth talks little jokers.
Soul-mate lyrics
I remember the day I met you,
We smiled so hard our mouths hurt,
I can write like Theodore Twombly all day
but there’s always a tinge of truth behind all the poems,
And here I'm real...
But I'm driven and romantic - for you girl,
I want to let you know,
I want to let you be my cherry blossom girl,
I know we have the power to understand each other,
That music plays louder than words,
I want your laughter, cries and soft eyes,
I want your peach blossom, to mirror me, into infinity,
I want the lot, with you girl,
So baby, let me play with you all day.
Because truth needs innocence like I need you,
Because I’m not afraid anymore to tell you the deepest of truths,
Because trust is tragedy, hope and tenderness combined, and that's what you inspire in me,
Because romance needs individuality like how you warm me,
Because I’m not ashamed of the possibility of losing you, just so scared,
You drive me crazy and warm, hazy and new-born,
It’s crazy I know, that you’re the one I just couldn’t get over,
But it’s encrypted, and I know never just for show,
we’re soul-mates and I wanted to let you know.
I imagine tasting your lips still and I imagine you have cigarette breath,
I can face your hips still, swaying in the sun's golden haze,
Strong and determined, I can sense your worth still,
If you knew what it was worth,
I wouldn’t have to fight so hard to see you….
Because I can love you,
Because I care for you,
Because I worry about you,
I’m that satellite, remember
You drive me crazy and warm, hazy and new-born
Before I met you, I thought myself a business man at heart
but with you I feel things differently, like an artist,
so I make the right rhymes, singing to myself at night,
I find a new leash of life, nunca me rindo, I'll learn Spanish by heart.
Se que podriamos estar juntos todo el dia,
Asi que no te rajes,
por que yo no me rajare
Te amare y me amaras,
no te rindas que yo no me rendire
por nuestro amor,
por nuestro amor,
por nuestro amor,
Nunca me rindo, I don’t back down and quit,
Nunca me rindo, I don’t back down and quit,
Nunca me rindo, I don’t back down and quit,
for your love,
por tu amor,
Baby, if I ever sit with you looking at the moon,
it will be perfect crescent shaped,
and we will lie in the grass and follow the signs,
given to us from above,
cos our mission is holy and unique,
because your uniqueness,
because your subtlety,
cos your absence leaves a whole in me,
that I cannot fill,
that I cannot fill
that I cannot fill properly,
without your love
I still miss so many things about you,
like you singing kareoke,
I miss us snuggling,
se que podriamos acurrucarnos todo el dia,
Asi que no te rajes,
por que yo no me rajare
no te rindas que yo no me rendire
por nuestro amor,
por nuestro amor,
por nuestro amor,
No me rajo, I won’t back down and quit,
No me rajo, I won’t back down and quit,
for your love,
for your love,
for your love,
But maybe you make me end up with someone else.
And I fail and see you with someone else,
and they say love isn't pain,
but we'll see, hey.
Enough
People as you know are complicated,
See I was abroad, where I was blessed to know this special person...
who faced difficulties...
For days at a time,
she would be insomniac
but the tears she would just hold back,
though at times she would break down,
all out of key,
then she would say to me
that all was well,
but that she just wasn’t... enough,
those words hurt so much,
but then any move I made afterwards
would meet a quick rebuff.
We were serious once upon a time,
she became like a mountain I liked to climb,
And it still makes me sick in the stomach, that first day,
that I saw the scars,
the hurt she carried in her eyes.
They tore at me with daggers,
that I felt she had carried with her a long, long time,
but she usually wore a mask so fine,
that first time I saw it off took me really by surprise,
and of course she would say that all was well....
I was left perplexed, it took me a short while,
for me to realize she had only just lied
and that’s when she started to hide.
When I saw her
I saw someone
Intricate but fragile,
I’m talking,
delicate as linen,
sometimes smooth as kashmir,,
her charm was so subtle it tugged...
yet it was not always spontaneous,
how many times did that hurt
hide someone even more radiant?
Because I knew while she could act so tough,
evidently she was going through something so rough.
So I asked her, to do one thing...
to tell me,
looking into that mirror
who do you see,
looking into that mirror,
who do you see,
Because looking into that mirror,
you can’t always be,
exactly who you want to see,
but I wanted her to know,
she was already enough.
And I told her,
to me there was still a hole in her heart
why she was always pushing and pulling, stuck in restart,
and it came from the past,
had left her those scars,
looked like it might want to last.
And I would mind my own business if it weren’t so salient,
But I told her, it was my love,
it’s what stopped her from being spontanous and so radient,
Still, she was someone,
delicate as linen,
smooth as kashmir,
her charm was so subtle, it tugged…
Yet, some days she would move in shocks and jolts,
yet she claimed she was normal and wide-alert,
The issue was that denying all the hurt,
would only lead for to it to repeat,
that’s the way things are,
you can’t take always the backseat,
and I was afraid, afraid to be part of that act
and she had said once we got serious
that she wanted honesty as part of a pact,
Then she said again that she felt she was not enough,
And I told her she was living a lie
I said I’m going to call your bluff,
because all it does is cripple us..
So at night, looking into that mirror
who do you see,
So at night, looking into that mirror
who do you see,
because I know whilst
looking into that mirror,
you can’t always be,
exactly who you want to see,
you came to this world for a reason,
and you are already,
enough,
you are already,
more than enough.
Weekend off
All that fight flight, got ur jaw tight
Loosen up, dance with me tonight,
Have a light, no more fights, let's get high...
Ecstasy,
You see baby,
I've been dreaming a luxury weekend with you,
My mind's wandered to where's next best spent chilling,
You like football, Barca's in my vision,
Play with flare, it's our philosophy,
Tika taka, Movement so slick it's no mission,
Beaches, sun, kisses, enter this next phase,
Yeah it has a Gothic aesthetic,
But heaven wouldn't be so alluring with no ugly gargoyles in sight...
I've told you before we have character, your near perfect already...
It's your day off,
All week, fight flight, you got your jaw tight,
Loosen up, dance with me tonight,
Have a light, no more fights, let's get to new heights
Addicted, Nikki gives me that light buzz,
They say backi's a giving drug,
At the end of the day it comes from the earth,
Least it's natural, speaking of...
Now Hape, that indie stuff's the rush
Adicted, addicted to that novelty, to that dopamine, to the beauty of your contrast,
To the beauty of your smile,
Too late to change me,
And you're my new toy babe, entertain me,
Let loose, tai chi style, then behind please...
I just seek adrenaline when I'm on a roll,
The docs even think I need aripiprazole,
I'm after those tingles, and you're still single,
To sum up, foreplay - gorgeous,
then I get see your passion,
I want it to be better than the best fashion.
I'm talking, intense, dark, delicious... climax.
No fear babe, I'll let you finish so many, you'll be so zealous,
we'll make all the neighbours too jealous
All that fight flight, it's got your jaw tight
Loosen up, dance with me tonight,
Have a light, no more fights, let's get to new heights...
Then let's go out of space, Venus and Jupiter call,
Get in my UFO, your parents will never know,
I won't kidnap, but it's your one chance to go see k-Pax.
Take it, fly into orbit and enjoy life.
Enjoy my funky style,
show me that dazzling smile,
we don't need to follow trends,
naturally our emotions blend ,
as we make the new art, follow your heart,
we set the pace from afar,
outer space.
All that fight flight, it's got your jaw tight
Loosen up, dance with me tonight,
Have a light, no more fights, let's get high...
Ecstasy,
and you see I've been dreaming..., of you... you see I've been dreaming... of you.
Ecstasy, you see I've been dreaming,... of you... you see I've been dreaming...
you see I've been dreaming, dreaming
Dance with me tonight,
Loosen up, tai chi style
Fight flight, you've got your jaw tight
Keep some faith
Treasure
This is spoken word,
keeping it unique,
suave and choppy,
to show you can flow with a new style,
to any beat,
and still
keep it neat.
Poetry, this is Leo G
Dancing, out of our feet,
This is yours... to keep,
A promise, Mysteries reveal,
Treasure, that lies inside your body,
Like a blueprint, You move so fluid,
Dance with me...
Come dance with me...
She whispers in my ear,
'There's no pleasing me'
I shake my head and smile,
Still, her touch,... it electrifies me,
I ain't flashy,
But I'd like to show her off
Her matrix, never vapid,
Diamonds in her eyes,
Still out of reach...
If overcoming fear leads to victory,
Then swallow my pride I might,
To gamble for her tonight,..
Usually confident, but I'm feeling shy,
Yet we connect,
It's in the eyes,
They feel my vibe,
I can tell that she'd like to leave,
Just perhaps with me...
Tension, carve through it with a knife,
Moving slowly tonight,
Press your body into mine,
But something's not quite right,
Read between the lines,
Worth a roll of the dice?
You dabble in kinesthetic pleasure,
Still a mystery why,
I can't break your gaze,
Don't move away,
I'm fading, I'm soft inside,
Tempting as you are
A flick of the neck,
Subtlety, it never lies,
So why have you got me doubting, my own style?
So I say,
'I'm a man who's never really satisfied
so I know your type,
But this is yours to keep,
A promise,
If I see you more than one time,
I'll take you for a ride,
Through the streets
Picture: cool winter evenings
On my motor bike,
Then we'll hang out on rooftops,
Enjoy the feelings of being alone and alive,
wrapped by the night....
But bless your heart,
You have me feeling shy, tonight'
She whispers to me
'I'm not easily pleased
But if I see you again
We can go out...
your ideas sound sweet'
I'm already stuck in her matrix...
Her perfume so flagrant,
It's in her eyes, the moments right,
Kinesthetic connection,
Bless your heart tonight.
Dancing, out of our feet,
This is yours to keep,
A promise,
Mysteries reveal,
Treasure, that lies inside your body,
