Don't dial my number Leave me alone I'm tired of you recking my home Tried to keep you warm, you turned away Now I'm stuck in the matrix, memories fade to gray Who am I? And who are you? We move in opposite phases, unanchored sun and moon Wanted you here to shed your light You're chasing freedom out there although it's all inside Tried to give you all, you turned away Now I'm moving on, weaving up the fray So don't dial my number, just leave me be I'm busy fixin' my faith so I can fly free Yeah (I tried, I tried, I tried) I can't help but wonder Will it all just burn I can't help but hold out hope That we'll reach a cosmic return I can't help but wonder Will it all just burn I can't help but hold out hope That we'll reach a cosmic return (Telephone V.O.) Tonight? Alright, I'll be there in 40. Don't dial my number no more (x3)

Convos 03:13
I got a lot on my mind Tied up in all of the vines Ain’t got a whole lotta time I got some magic to find Lotus flowers bloom Yo memory caught up in my room Hop in the coup and I go zoom Lost in myself I’ll be back soon soon Rushin' for the bread You twisted all up in my head Drownin' in all the words unsaid Loose ends you pullin' on my threads [Hook x2] Internal conversations I want your stimulation But I need more concentration And I’m runnin' outta patience for you I never seen it before You got a energy pure But I got 10 toes on the floor Energetically ready for more Whispers in my ear Tell me I should just disappear Vanish until my vision clear So I can linger in the mirror Sailing out to sea Emotions bubblin', troublin' me Shit happens, I just let it be And set my intuition free [Hook x2] Internal conversations I want your stimulation But I need more concentration And I’m runnin' outta patience for you {Bridge} You don’t keep me down no more Blue don't keep me on the shore Find my path through open doors Searchin' for more love to pour

B&H 03:25
Ohhh Down the block, globe on lock It's 1 o'clock Sun high, got my baby on my backside Ghost town, only sounds from inside my mind I follow the signs Homies keeled over, perhaps forcibly sober Slumped on blue plastic, wouldn't be fantastic If we all could spare a dime If we all could spare the time [Hook] On my way to B&H, B&H To take me up out my pain B&H, B&H To break me up out my cage Stop, stand clear of broken promises Above ground shadows creepin' from the projects 34th Street poppin' with the latex Men in black at the door still ain't been paid yet Open up the case, show me lemme get a little taste Freedom, sweet freedom Give me wings to fly from the mausoleum [Hook] On my way to B&H, B&H To take me up out my pain B&H, B&H To break me up out my cage I been boilin' got a lot to say So I went to B&H Bought my appendages, made the bread back in the same day Oooh nahh They love a lane to ride through their pain So do I, So do I Gimme ones, tens for a vocal backflip Fixin' crumblin' Mama Earth with a couple adlibs I flow through can you, can you catch it? Feedin' my temptation with creation, I'm on that shit [Hook] At the B&H, B&H To take me up out my pain (Oh, take me out my pain) B&H, B&H To break me up out my cage

I wake, I wake, I wake To rain pourin' I look, I see, I feel I'm soul soarin' My eyes are sunken low You make my mind dance Find warmth in traces of you Stuck in this trance Cuz you are so damn beautiful, you are You make mountains move inside my heart You are so damn beautiful you are Set my soul on fire, I'm a burnin' star Yeah Say ah ah Say ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah ah Say ah ah Mmm The world is cavin' in Day by day now We bleed our wounds will heal We don't know how The sun heats all our days But I'm feelin' cold love Your sound reflects outer space Lost in galaxies, just you and me, soul soarin' free above Cuz you are so damn beautiful, you are You make mountains move inside my heart You are so damn beautiful you are Set my soul on fire, I'm a burnin' star Ya da da ya da da da da.... Cuz you are so damn beautiful, you are You make mountains move inside my heart You are so damn beautiful you are Set my soul on fire, I'm a burnin' star And so, and so, and so I float I float above my fears In order to know more, I'll soul soar I'll do anything to stay here Cuz you are so damn beautiful, you are You make mountains move inside my heart You are so damn beautiful you are Set my soul on fire, set my soul on fire Mmm dee dee dee...

Ahhh (oooh) I been feelin' weak And uninspired, climbin' higher far from Earth I feel like jumpin' right up off the peak I see my colors, I don't hear the sound from others Wishin' they could take the pain from My colors stream from black to blue like ocean blue I'm feelin' you [Hook] Can you teach me how to feel? See yourself inside me Show me what's the deal Can you teach me how to feel? See yourself inside me Show me that's real You're my only way to feel See yourself inside me Show me what's the deal Can you teach me how to feel? See yourself inside me, then see your way out I beat around the bends (hey yeah) And my vices turn me icey I can't lie to you (Hey yeahhh) I understand the message that it sends My soul is too conflicted But you stay 'cuz you're addicted to me We're too deep in lust to make amends For now I'll let you take away my time, you're takin' all my time Just say you're mine [Hook] Can you teach me how to feel? See yourself inside me Show me what's the deal Can you teach me how to feel? See yourself inside me Show me that's real You're my only way to feel See yourself inside me Show me what's the deal Can you teach me how to feel? See yourself inside me, then see your way out {Bridge} Ooooo x2 oooo Ahh oooooo What can I say? I'm doin' my best to escape Boardin' the plane, soarin' through the blue Tryna grab onto you And we laugh 'cuz life's a joke Blue Imaginaries choke me You stab me with your absence I'm halfway off the shore (yeah) I'm tryna move around the corner Feelin' the storm, emotions troublin' Get out my way, I'm under construction Too busy hustlin' Ain't no discussion, yeah Leave me on read 'cuz you're done with my antics I'm cradled in the bed and my heart's in a panic Manic I'm tired of cold romances I'm tired of robbin' myself of chances Hey, yeah yeah I'm back again Oohh whoaaa I can teach you how to feel I've taught you how to feel You don't need to teach me how to feel I know that I'm real I can teach you how to feel I don't need to teach you how to feel And you don't need to teach me how to fee See yourself inside me, then see your way out

It's funny 'cuz like, I don't even rap like that though Like, I sing Gang gang Boom-chaka-laka, Uh I don’t need no watered down potion Put your promises in motion Rock the mic and make ya eyes roll I still got this hole in my chest Skip to the part where I live my destiny I take my integrity, you can keep the rest of me Keep me in ya shadows where ya demons tumblin' out to play You can cock a .22 and shoot but the pain don’t go away I been movin' in ya dreams Energy beamin' every day Gave the boot to your persuasion Naw, I ain’t got time today Look I say it all with the music If you wonderin' where my heart is at Then bump this shit and use it It's a tool for understanding how the magic flows, how I process woes, How I carry love as it comes and goes Yeah I'm from a complicated network Niggas calculate they net worth I eliminate the guess work Hidden in my spirit Yeah, I used to fear it Shit be cloudy but my angels speakin', I can hear it They say [HOOK] Take a sip of my elixir Yeah it’s good for ya Yeah they wanted me to fix 'em I'm too good for 'em Chefin' in the kitchen Yeah I put on 'em I'm aligned with my spirit, I'm too (V.O.) Shout out to the gang, uh... I guess you ain't really supposed to do shoutouts in the middle of the song, but... Fuck it! Hahahaha Take off like a ship, I'm rockin' Shakin' the block, blowin' up ya sockets I got the key, keep it in my pocket Let that shit bang, tuck away then lock it Uh You talkin' too much, please stop it Inventory of my bars, I stock it Style a different typa wave, can't cop it Knock a fraud up out the way like Rocky I don't need no bands I don't need not hoops I just need a booth I'm in a sonic trance And I can't bust out so I gotta buss down down And prove myself For my health, gotta say it all now Spent a lotta time just fuckin' around Now I gotta shape this heart in the form of sound (sound, sound) [HOOK] Take a sip of my elixir Yeah it’s good for ya Yeah they wanted me to fix 'em I'm too good for 'em Chefin' in the kitchen Yeah I put on 'em I'm aligned with my spirit, I'm too

In My Dreams 02:56

Intro (x3) I'm not what you expect I am not what you expect Life will take a hold of ya Reach down and mold ya soul into a masterpiece Grows old but never fades And though you askin' me why I'm cold inside It's cuz I'm where I'm supposed to be I'm not cold, I'm just preoccupied No interruptions Outside the movement's rising People still are dying Inside and out but no one sees it No one sees that this is an emergency, pick up the phone it's urgent Wash out your bleeding soul with Tide detergent In the mean time, let it tumble dry we got work to do Tell the other fucked up souls that we gon' rendezvoused At 2:25 Yeah we gon' do a deep dive inside our minds [HOOK x2] I’m not what you expect I got my self-respect I’m not what you expect I am a pool of depth I see the Future is Wrapped up in the Now Shed your preconceptions of it I could show you how (V.O.) We ain't acceptin' no more scraps, nigga We out here tryna get free Period. I awake from a dream and stare my demons in the face A dream built on lies meant to keep my ego safe They say “you are me, I am you” I turn my head away But they reappear in the night and transform throughout the day I call out to my ancestors Who hold the Earth beneath my feet Who rock and lull the ocean Who roam the air I breathe A dove and a butterfly flew over the scene They whisper “Trust. Speak. Release. That’s how you get free.”

Take a look at me Boundless, vast and deep Spoonfed from containers since birth We’ve lost our way, severed from the Earth [Hook] Air and water, Dove and child All are free, all are wild Don’t trap our bodies, don’t trap our voice Just absorb genderful noise They’ve seen us before in another life Don’t look too hard, you’ll strain your third eye Trust what we’re saying over what you think you see Because we dance in the light Transform, won’t you join me? [Hook] Air and water, Dove and child All are free, all are wild Don’t trap our bodies, don’t trap our voice Just absorb genderful noise {Bridge} We are the sun, we are the moon Will make you shiver, will make you swoon We are the snowflakes stuck to your eyelash We are the daffodils springing up from the grass We are the fire flies, we are the trees We are blue skies, we are the summer breeze We are the captain, we are the sea Society’s nightmare, and our wildest dreams [Hook] Air and water, Dove and child All are free, all are wild Don’t trap our bodies, don’t trap our voice Just absorb genderful noise

Transmute 04:10
Swaying in the wind No ground to stand upon My foundation cracked and drifted from me Broken bonds Had to swim beneath the surface Saw my demons found my purpose Leaned in close so I could hear it Gentle whispers from my spirit [Pre-Hook] It said Tay-tay-tay take your time It’s all par-part of the grind A-amplify your shine Have fay fay faith iss iiight [HOOK] Feel it Move it Heal it Transmute Moving on my path I feel the wanderlust But the doubt is creepin' in The voice is thunderous I soar beyond storm My light will keep me warm When the pain is said and done We'll share the joy with everyone [Pre-Hook] It said Tay-tay-tay take your time It’s all par-part of the grind A-amplify your shine Have fay fay faith iss iiight HOOK] Feel it Move it Heal it Transmute {Bride pt 1 x2} I know I got em in a holy grail Chariots carry my set list Try to cut my down then u gon' fail Betta cc God on that death wish {Bridge pt 2 x2} You love me you me not Now that I found my spot I move how I want to now Can’t touch me I’m kissing clouds {Bridge pt 3} From Down the block Shorty lookin' like they down to rock with me Blowin' up Devil on my shoulder, tryna fuck w me Ascension is my calling I’m too dangerous to be stallin' Ain’t no waitin' on ya just to see me Shinin' bright from floor to ceiling [Pre-Hook] It said Tay-tay-tay take your time (Take ya time, baby) It’s all par-part of the grind (It's all a part of the grind) A-amplify your shine (Amplify) Have fay fay faith iss iiight [HOOK] Feel it Move it Heal it Transmute it Now move with me Move with me Move Break it down to the left One time, two time, three time Break it down the right One time, two time, three time Break it down like Left, right, left, right, left, right, left Break it down like Left, right, left, right, left, right, left Heyyy

Daydreams 03:24
Daydreams got me flyin' Up high in the sky, I see Montage of Earth dyin' Pray for inner light beams [HOOK] ooooh x4 Can you see the colors Swirl fast beneath what you say? By masking your soul's hunger Love won't see the light of day [HOOK] ooooh x4 My hands have grown tired Of building up your fantasies I stoke my own fire To call home my own galaxy [HOOK] ooooh x4

about

For past, present, and future me.

This is a reflection on my emotional reality. Where cycles of heartache, loneliness, healing, self-actualization and spiritual alignment connect. In other words, this is me. Unearthed. Full. Raw. This is collection of my Truths. This is only the Beginning.
