Some Tea

Good morning, good afternoon and good evening, my friend
I say we have a glass right now
And some one on one time
To show you where I’ve been
My altitude and my attitude
Cloud Camo, yea, yea
Flashback, last year I had some pitiful days
Where my wallet carried nothing but space
Kept my, struggle anonymous till unemployment documents could deliver providence
Could deliver providence
And let's speak the truth, you know that remains priceless
I don’t carry chains and my neck remains iceless
My heart isn’t quick to break like wet papyrus is
and you could find me where the Indica is
Falling back, shutting off my cellular service
We keep on riding the circuits like surfing currents
But I’m not Johnny Tsunami, never been a carbon copy
Of anybody, the future me’s who I’m tying to embody
Show me the gaps between you and aspirations
I know you’ll open that shop, multiple locations
I believe in your dream, please don’t wake up from it
They say swallow your pride, it’s what they can’t stomach
Can't, Can't
So let’s discuss love and trust over cups of that ginger
tea
Sip slow, sip slow, sip slow
Yea, ooh
Sip slow, sip slow, sip slow, sip
This beat is a sedative, hits like mimosas
Hold good times close, grip it like Boa
One day you’re here, nother in a coma
Cherish quiet moments with the fam on the sofa
When you feel deserted like Sahara or some dial tones
On a burner phone, won’t you let me know?
I’m sitting on the edge of tomorrow,
Peeking at mountain peaks
Got some inner peace you could borrow
And I got some tea

Freedom
03:09
|

Yea
All we want is some
All we want is some
All we want is
All we want is
All we want is some
All we want is some
We want it, need it more than oxygen, tell me what you’d do to reach it
What you’d do to reach it
We want it, we need it, if it’s not the greener grass, look underneath it
Just look underneath it
They told me we have it, if that’s the case take my data and delete it
Take it and delete it
I don’t trust the system, they promise perfection with business and gimmicks, I
I don’t trust the system, it turned ancestor spirits into some digits
Now I look at my future and I refuse to detect any limits, I
Wonder if we’ll ever be complete
Hidden chains around your feet
Haven’t been convincing me, me, me, me
I just want some clouds under my feet
Tell me how I can be free
Keep, keep, keep it discreet, keep it discreet
I just want to be
Just wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
The pilot of my destiny
My grip is on these keys, these keys, these
When I collapse like debris, like debris, like debris
Yo, everybody’s playing characters and roles
Till the flesh grows cold
Close curtains and your fist, never fit me in a script
Know I’m rare like a son born during an eclipse
I’m equipped
To keep calm in the chaos
When I’m not focused on accumulating like a kiosk
I look within to find a bit of something I think we lost
A taste of freedom and harmony with tree moss
I keep the search going like it’s missing persons
Cuz our time on Earth is like tomorrow, uncertain
Why should we be defined
By currency signs
Or seeking careers peers wish to find
We all intertwine, don’t undermine
Find Freedom from inner lies, location ties, prying eyes
and what leaders hide
That’s real right?
Is that, is that
Tell me, tell me, tell me
That’s real, right?
Is that, is that, is that, is that
The answer to that question might keep me up at night
Wonder if we’ll ever be complete
Hidden chains around your feet
Haven’t been convincing me, me, me, me
I just want some clouds under my feet
Tell me how I can be free
Keep, keep, keep it discreet, keep it discreet
I just want to be
Just wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
The pilot of my destiny
My grip is on these keys, these keys, these
When I collapse like debris, like debris, like debris, like debris, like debris

Intimate
02:59

As nature slowly throws a charcoal cloak on your horizon
Those without love charge ahead like horns of bison, we’re blinded
In this game of catch and release, will you refuse a leash, be free
Cloud Camo, yea
Listen, listen, listen
So moonstruck, you keep the truth tucked
In a buried safe, your guard’s up
On the, on the, on the hunt for some connection
That untamable desire from eyes burning with tension
Race from the right swipes to the hands tight
As a harness
Upon the waist, no time to waste
But passion’s like agave when you’re patient for that taste
Your bond could be alloy, rarely bend or break, just
Watch out for the decoys, fake love that deploys and destroys
Leaving you broke like wooden coins
Or oak dimes
What’s your definition of a dime
Before you speak, please listen to mine
Hungry palms on my chest
And a union beyond bonds of flesh
Rise with me this dawn and the next
As our footsteps follow the apex
Where are you, where are you, where are you at?
People looking, they’re looking all over the map
Never been flawless or the type to leave you jawless
I’ve been seeking solace from a brain cluttered as a caucus
I’ll be honest, in this game of love I’m a novice
I’ve been feeling frigid like a blizzard hitting August
This that rawness
May not be fitting definitions
Of your image of me, but you see with tinted vision
Hopeless romantic and somewhat outlandish
Is how I describe myself before I vanish
Into onyx blankets, searching for someone to share something candid, something candid
I gotta connect closer than orgasms
Type of heat atoms of our sun could fathom
Hungry palms on my chest
And a union beyond bonds of flesh
Rise with me this dawn and the next
As our footsteps follow the apex
Where are you, where are you, where are you at?
People looking, they’re looking all over the map
Maybe our story’s beginning is told through nerve endings
Lofi, mellow tones narrate our souls blending
The heat between is a lucid nova dream
Melting, merging
Pourquoi est-ce que je t’aime?
Tu m’acceptes, tu me veux
Ta beauté me paralyse
Et demande que
J’en devienne digne

Terrarium
02:53

Ooh oh whoa oh
Ooh ah oh oh ohh
Virtues and vices growing here in this terrarium, I
Got herbs growing in this grove inside my cranium, I
Might pluck em all, multiply seeds and bury em, I
Got heavy thoughts, a hundred branches gotta carry em, I’ve never
Been one to fall for tactics of hypnosis
But the way the petals are spinning, I’m mesmerized and focused
Departed from the data-driven plan to stay on doses
I'm growing my black wings, can't remain in statue poses
I’m growing thicker skin akin to silver chain mail
My blood was born on an island where real rebels hail
Looking at the wall of freedom, no height they couldn’t scale
But the weight of justice isn’t always falling on two scales
Knock, knock, reality pounding like cinder block
So I’m overlooking docks and escaping my darker thoughts
Wind all in my locs on the eve of the equinox
Keeping my demeanor smooth as Riesling on the rocks
Virtues and vices growing here in this terrarium, I
Got herbs growing in this grove inside my cranium, I
Might pluck em all, multiply seeds and bury em, I
Got heavy thoughts, a hundred branches gotta carry em
Lemme reach for what I need
Grab a plant from way inside to tranquilize
No ketamine, just serotonin vines
Got orchards full of seeds like these, you know I did decide
To replicate the recipe I raised at age of 9
Imagination infinite, no matter what is imminent
Be facing it, eyes on the prize, blind if it isn’t it
Progress is a language, I’ve been fluent in it
Cultivating joy and some happiness, yea
Built bravery from bare bones like Haitian architecture
I rap these lessons to you, cause boredom would shadow lectures
You need to mirror soldiers and sacrifice many pleasures
The long run gains have a stride you cannot measure
In seconds, feet or kilometers
I crack thermometers
with a flow that echoes burr
Make you want polar fur
Make you seek an aquifer
When heat is melting dirt
Ooh, damn, damn, damn

Mirage
01:33
|
|||
Yea, yea, yea
Catch your breath in a mirage of the Amalfi Coast
Rest your neck on tropical oak, make the most
Of the rising tide, staying hypnotized
When the stress divides
Question every question, blink with three eyes
Your pace is a torpedo, dodging heat like Al Pacino
Pain is deeper than in vitro, can my verses help you let go
Of our fabricated world
Pursuit of money curls
And majestic pearls
Pour out some Malibu, let it swirl
Keep it lighthearted like a
Pulse in zero G, deliberately
Dig for gems in dirt of prior tragedies
All my bars have risen like orchids out of my scars
I’ve been climbing walls and barbs, escaping prisons of the heart
On my mister Parker, better yet Miles, my tone is darker
Vision like an archer when I scope for my departure
Uniting body and soul, it’s I am, no longer we are
Went from rock bottom to fingers clutching the stars
Spend a few seconds with sessions in the mirage
Release all tension, it’s pleasant in this mirage
Keep a lil segment of heaven for your collage
I wanna see you flee from the daily barrage
Once in a while
Once in a while
Once in a while, yea, yea
Spend a few seconds with sessions in the mirage
Release all tension, it’s pleasant in this
In this
In this
It’s pleasant in this
