High the cost of living cyber minds got the virus, Wrapped up in a tight fist wireless Buy n selling life screened on the eyelids No light for the iris But sky lives still it changes the colour Of these pages between night and day What remains are the reason we stay> The sky changes colour but the city don’t change Remove all the doubt like the clouds from the sun> Under one sky we are one Tumbling through life til the time comes We rise up to that blue ocean above Reminded that love is the punchline> can only try once to leave a mark in the dust There is only us Through the sun and the rain The sky changes colour but the city don’t change The city don’t change as the sky change colour We easily forget we should love one another Staring at the ground while the beauty’s above us Trying to be found while we’re lost in our own dungeons Lost in the function As the systems we built now crumble What remains is the faith that our struggle isn’t in vain As Winter change into summer

I heard a saying once, Two heads are better than one, We come together and, Dance in the sun, I heard a saying once, Two heads are better than one, Lets come together and, Rebuild everything as one.

Spark in ya eye so you throw fire. Dark is the night. Fire in the belly Eyes wide you were born ready. Sword heavy Each step more legendary You can turn on a penny Stance steady as the earth move Still your past buried The stars covet your energy You bear the mark of the heavenly Hope on the road to the battle See the foes like abattoir cattle The dark shadows Pierced by the Suns arrows, Draw from the tarot Harden the mind Find courage in your bones marrow Rise in your saddle Meet the worst headfirst The universe watches you travel The clocks tick brings you to victory The earth keep spinning Birth of a new vision The fire in your heart rise Eyes fixed on the prize no ties to the past Live to advance Gifted this chance True to your art form When you move it's a dance Spinning round in a vast storm Steady as a mast in the wind You have mastered your skin Discipline drawn from within This'll bring strength to the limbs Stretch any length for the win. Thoughts not of were you have been Move to the future Do what you gotta do Hold up ya chin Fire in ya belly Bolder Wild horses couldn’t hold ya. Different form of the old you You become something new The goal is in view Your aim true Follow through from the beginning The earth keep spinning Birth of a new vision

As the smoke on her lips played, And drifted into space The first light of the sun hit her smiling face Arms stretched to find an embrace His palm rests on her hip. There’s no time to make haste. Her body makes statements Track his eyes path She would share more pavement He can help her to her home safe To her own place He pulls her close with his hand on her waist And says her name The spark of the flame Just the start of the game At the parting of ways (Tiece) You revel in it The devil made you do it There standing dum Pointing at the one That's gonna make your eyes run Feel the rays of the sun’s Kisses Which way does your heart want (Tiece) Are you going or staying Which way will your mind make up Which side of your face will the sun hit when you wake up Which fork in the road are you taking (Rawz) His head tilts to the side Her light fills his eyes So he closes em Their minds move just a little bit closer Closer to one They both know whats to come, Her lips taste like bubblegum And his wine And their paths intertwine Framed by the colours of the sky Love comes alive The rays of the sun shine to turn darkness to day At the parting of ways

You, you're a part of me It's You that cause my heart to beat You're my spark in the darkness In the dance you move my feet And bring love from my past to me From the first time we met I couldn't even talk to you yet Had to build up my strength Compose my first sentence You stayed there in my head It's like I couldn't Tear myself from your presence > You were there when I first played the drums on the table Showed me a style to relate to Tho I never stayed faithful And you strayed too I could never hate you I just played cool Through the hard times you showed me the truth We set fire to the roof You Brought bap to my boom The sun to my moon You’re the 1 to my 2 Now look how we grew together You kept me warm in the coldest weather Just for that I'm yours forever You brought gifts no bar can measure Absorbed my devils I feel sure when I talk to you I just call on you An your there when im feeling blue This plans never falling through Its all for you You set me free

I don't walk under ladders always keep a rabbits foot to hand, So how the devil always messin Wi my plans? Strange habits, believing things we don't understand to avoid the bad bits We Try to Weave magic In the car there's a lucky charm hangin To stop the breaks jammin As I swerve through the traffic ask the magpie how his fam is Align the planets > And find signs of what's gonna happen time flys an it follows prerecorded patterns in my minds eye touch wood so ill never die an if i do ill rise to the spirit in the sky to sit by his side cos a priest wouldnt lie its alright if i tell him all the bad things i did with my life and heed his advice try pleasing the dice
7.
If a bird lost its wings would it still try an fly? If you cut of my hands could I reach for the sky? Imagine dreams aren't a lie, And life, Is all in our minds, Would you 9 to 5 nose to the grind? Or would you wander the wide> Blue yonder to find all the blessings that you long for, Beyond the stresses and the locked doors, and contours, Pause ponder this thought, Imagine all the people living for the world> No need for a prison, No countries an no religion, You may say that I’m trippin, But I’m not alone in the vision, The tribe listen when I drop a poem, I can tell cos the vibe different, The wise see the mistakes, of another, and pass the knowledge to his sisters and his brothers, Some eyes to big for the cake, Watch em break
8.
The worry gets better tomorrow Treasure these lessons you borrow don't Measure the pleasure with sorrow Sever the tentacles holding you back Roll up the slack An use it to climb up the stack Find what you lack its intriguing to put yourself under attack Cos your feeding your mind Leading the pack Seek for the meaning of facts Obstacles dealing with that Perceive what your demons attract Open ya optical Snap ya synaptic receptacles All you could ask for is plentiful All is for you and it’s beautiful All I can do if you do it too All we can do is just move We can fly high as the moon We can fly high as we choose if we’re two Working as one Strength of the Earth and the Sun A daughter give birth to a mum A mother a son A son is a dad to a daughter and so we begun An so it goes on Till the last tale is spun When everything add up to none All that you do is for fun So let it be better tomorrow don't Measure the pleasure with sorrow

about

I’m really proud of how this project turned out, it’s been almost exactly 6 years since we started working on these tracks, and there’s been a lot of setting it aside to work on other stuff, but it’s stayed with me all this time and I’ve kept coming back to it because I knew it was worth finishing. I can’t wait to find out what you lot think!
