Don't Dial My Number

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)

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

Soul Soaring (Unplugged)
04:24

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...

Blue Imaginaries

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

(V.O.) 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

Breaking dawn
I crave your warmth
Through my veins
Your light pours
Through my windowpane
Your ghost blows
And I ain't want you to go
But I'll see
See you in my dreams
in my dreams
See you in my dreams
See you
I'll see you in my dreams
In my dreams

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.”

Genderful Noise

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

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 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
