[MISS C-LINE]
New day, building our safe place
Gotta keep it moving, gotta start my day and embrace
Let’s keep it tasty, never lose my cool, I’m crazy
Out of control, but my life is start to face me
I'm starting to feel
Starting to see the things that are real
Study my life and all that I'm doing
But this life is gonna be ruined
If I don't choose it
So I chose what I need
And this life ain't mine
If I don't do me and
I'm not feeling free, see
[MISS C-LINE]
Look, now what I’m gonna do, what
It’s cool, but you gonna lose
Someday you just gotta chose
The stars over your excuse
There ain't no excuses
I just gotta do it
This Life is a journey
So I use it not abuse it
Or else I’m through with this
Ain't it what you wanna do?
A trip to the stars, Is it what we aim for?
Let us get high, we got time,
A place where we can be ourselves all night!
[MISS C-LINE]
I just wanna be, up in space I just wanna be free.
Dancing all night long, having love for the people I have never ever seen.
Or the scenes maybe seem obscene
But I will find out only if I leave
I don't need all that shit that they give me here
Too much fear around me
I don't know should I go or no
I know for sure that life is short
So I go with the flow
And I wanna learn everything I don't know
‘Lotta things that I don't like
Wanna trade in my time
Tired of all that hype
I'm trusting myself a lot
Right right
Imma have a nice life
Soon as I arrive
[MISS C-LINE]
What a day, what a day, everybody's awake
Let’s go to the place, I assure you the best,
Listen to the bass, my heart is in place,
Takes me to a phase, I don't wanna rush,
Please me with a mastic, see the world from above while you get symptomatic,
And you begin to feel like an addict, the need for love and fulfillness is all you’ve been askin’
The moment of bliss that surrounds you in space is what we know has been working on us
It is for our best. Leaving the past and confess, trying so hard to move on, but this party is where we belong now we move on

Wavelengths 24/7
Steady changing
Light is always moving at its pace and
We can never catch it though we keep on chasing energy is always on the move
I feel true to what I do, but what is the truth
Is it what I think, what I feel, or something to choose?
And what is it to you, if you don't walk in my shoes
Cuz whatever is true to me may not be true to you too
Look toward the light the shadow lays behind
Turn around and you embedded in the shine
If you turn the light off, you are left with your mind
And if you got it in your face, well then the path is hard to find
Give me the sunlight
Give me the energy
I'm needing more life
I need a remedy
Give me the sunlight
Give me the energy
I'm needing more life
I keep on pushin’ and runnin’ and fightin’
I wanna get there before the sun sets
I know I am invited
I'm channeling the energies I hope the universe can see all the beauty within me
But at the end where will this lead
What will I be will I be free
Believe in the peers
A plan on the sheet
But not really living cuz I cannot listen to waves that are hitting my eyes and my ears
Waves full of tears
The bigger the wave the lower frequency
And then I‘ll see what I didn't feel
The I hears

Over the time I had to learn that
I just gotta wait for you
I mean I really want to, but I can't
I got other things to do you what I mean
I can not wait for you, come on..
You’re so attractive to me
But what it means if I don't get to know what you’re gonna give to me
I know you’re physically here
but could you ever bother thinking 'bout how I may be feeling?
Maybe it's not important
Maybe I'm overreacting
Maybe I gotta take you as you are
Enjoy what I'm getting
But damn, I really wanna see you open up
Because you got my trust
But now you look so stiff
As if somebody pulled the plug
And it's it tryna hide your feelings
But to me you look sick and you don't seem to have juice at all
So what am I gon’ get
Just a couple of minutes
Maybe not even more
Couple of days is that really what I'm fighting for?
Cuz I don't wanna pay that shit, it’s something I cannot afford
But still you being grown
I hope you hold your soul
A moment of love’s worth more than gold
Or so I'm told
But why talking ‘bout the love if I don't know what I'm in for?
You’re treating me as if I would be treating you
Like you ain't nothing special I know you are
But please let me be me
And please send me some kind of sign that you see me too
Ain't even asking for a full bloom
But you know, if you keep going like that I’ll be gone soon
At least warm it up a little bit
I mean I can smell that you're already close to it
Please just let me get a sip
You brought me here don't tell me it was just a trick
I know you got the power smell sour
Man, I gotta find me another flower
The moment I’ve been waiting for
For you
You are the one that I've been waiting for so please
Open up slowly
Open up
Amorphophallus titanum
You’re the biggest flower, complex
You’re not the most beautiful
But the beauty lies hidden
You’re unorthodox
But damn you smell foul
It's what it is
We cannot trust you
Give me one reason I should be waiting for you
We’ve been waiting for years

Kids playing outside
Parents at the job on the grind
The Sun is shining, beautiful day
Everybody tryna have a good time with no delay
Laid out right, everybody feeling nice
It's the perfect day
All the people realize it is worth it mane
Time and stress is all gone
The bond with life feels strong
Doesn't matter how bad yesterday been
Focus on now, they be saying
A lil sunshine can make night feel light
And the bright side of life arises
Makes the fun times last a long time
Life ain't feeling right here, but I don't know where to go
I believe in a better world, though
But I don't know whether it's true that hell is down below
I just know what I'm told
A regular day looks way different
The people gotta be delivering
Whether they can use their free time
Is written in the clouds
Time is just running out
I gotta do this
I gotta do it fast
I gotta learn quick
I'm hoping I can last
I'm really feeling like the life that I'm living
Is too much to deal with and I can not quit it
Not now
The people are thankful
Because their Life is not just a handful
To handle
They need balance and this day can be an example
What is truly right or wrong
I guess nobody knows
So enjoy your life and live your life
Let the others live
Cuz you don't know what they’re going through right

Eyes Closed figure out what I hold
Life can be a gamble if you don't know what you own
But I'm bold always going on
I know the struggle starting to get real if I fold
And I know I'm fine, so it's hard to see the rest
Especially if nobody can be looking in your chest
What are your aims? What you doing things for
Can I really trust you?
Or you leave me painful
But the family that came before me
Showed me how to live my life most beautifully
I know that I had the chance to see what other people didn’t see
I'm grateful and I be lucky to be doing what they think they cannot
Looking in the mirror ask myself: can I do it really?
And what is in me?
All the people believing in me
But it doesn’t change shit
Coming round and round
and round I keep on going
I'm living for you, you living through me
and this is the truth
I know that
I keep on going
I will never stop
I will never stop
I keep
Going and going and going
But I be thankful, for the people that
Were there for me and I see clear that
I didn’t have a picture-perfect past
The people ‘round me made sure I could last
I had a good example of how to live my life
Thinking 'bout the future, it was always looking bright
I was loved right
No obstacle in sight
They didn’t make me feel the weight
Life was feeling kinda light
All the decisions I took I could be reading out of their books
Already have a look
I had to take my own steps evidently
I could do it with them on the side thankfully
So I know that everything I do, I do it for them
They raised me in the past made me who I am
I know that it's my life and I love to live it
If I had the power to be changing theirs, I would give it

Ay yo once upon a time I just met this guy
Well, like 5 minutes ago
You could see a mission in his eyes
This dude he comes up to me and says
“Hi, It's quite a funny time to get by right?!
The way that we are living we cannot go on
Take a different step right our wrongs
Cuz the way that we’re living we are not getting along
We gotta work a little harder for a strong bond”
“Uhm.. yess ok.. I get it
But.. Why me? Like, why don't you go to the senate
Cuz I'm a regular dude with regular rules
I don't even have the power to choose”
He didn't care about what I said he just kept going
Tell me all the things that went wrong and
That we need to go to another place
Where we can elevate start all over
And then we can recreate
“I know that it is possible cuz currently we are our own obstacle”
“Yes, I mean I get it
But why me like.. you keep talking to me like I was gonna change something
I'm just a fucking regular dude, I don't understand what you want from me bro”
He got quiet not for long though, the tape started rewinding
Here he go again with the same old shit
I mean I don't disagree, but I wanna quit this
“If we don't change now it's gonna be too late
We gotta get great and check what we put in our plates”
“OK STOP!
Listen dude, you’re gonna get me mad
I don't even disagree but please can you let me speak”
[ape jewel$]
ape jewel$

How?

It's always step by step
Don't know how far I'll get
If I keep on going on this road
Will I forget?
Where I’ve been coming from?
Where I really need to go?
All the things that happened to me
And imma feel it blow
Up in my mind don't know how to find
That perfect path for my life
I don't even know if that one exists
Or if I can resist
All the temptations I wanna persist cuz i
Believe in a better place believe in a better home
Most of us got the chance to choose what we care about
And some are just left out but
I don't know if we understand our choice
We are unique in our ways
We defeating our pain
But our mind is far away
How much more can we take before we are deranged?
Moving on a way that can never be rearranged
We only got one chance
We only got one life
A couple of days to be exact
Is it a fact that we need to change something?
Change in this world is it gonna be coming?
Cuz I used to trust in what I read
But today you can write waaay faster than you read
Nah, Facts can be proven
Tell me what you truly lack you wanted to ruin
Your whole damn fucking life
It's not damn fucking right
You wanna get somewhere you gotta manage your life
But what do I know
I only know it for myself and this how I grow
Cuz I believe in the path that I go step by step
Day for day L for L yet I keep going my way
What is up in my mind
Your help I won’t decline
Tryna find a solution for all of us combined
But shit I'm on my own path
And this is all I really can influence and this is how I gotta do it
Cuz I learn before I do
But I learn as I do
And I hope wherever go in the end, I won't burn
So tell me how far did I really come
Walking slowly I don't run
In some direction, I don't know where I'm headed
But I go step by step it's a fact

Wait a minute
Chillin’ with my folks I need another second
Wine is fine, but solitude I'm really missing
I need some more strength I wanna fully get it
So I'm tryna figure out what I be truly gettin’
A universal remedy there surely isn't
Life is so much more complex than this it is
I want to chill with my people all the time
But who’s gon’ take care of business
Nobody standing in my shoes
But if they could, would they really do it
I'm not saying my life is harder than yours
But it's mine, you couldn't stand in it one day for sure
I also don't want to give my shoes away
I'm proud of my life, sometimes I have a bad day
Usually I'm strong tough as a boulder
But not in the moment
I'm my own opponent
But the journey is the goal
So I'll walk it till I'm old I won't fold
I know that one day I'll be home

Damn I crossed your path
It didn't seem real cuz I was lost in math
And we had a blast
But I had to figure out how to build on the past
Move on yup, I gotta
Turn all the habits into something that is way more
Pure in its core not bitter and sore
Cuz I didn't really know all of these feelings before
Damn, I had to change and it had to come with you
You done share your world with me
Now I'm seeing through all the lies I been fed
For no reason I was scared (to be)
To be same old, same over again
I didn't want to be the regular dude I wanted to be true
But damn, I got fooled
Life is eternally a journey to the stars
So no matter where you’re goin’
You are always climbing rocks
So now the moment of truth
I really wonder the way I'll be changing with you
No matter what we do
We’re gonna be together You are me and I am you
Without me you are just a road
Without you I am left alone
If I don't stroll I wonder how life will go on
So let's go
We don't know where we going
But we got time
We don't know when we‘re there
Could be everywhere
The only thing that matters is that we are one
Though the journey has just begun
Feels like a lot to come
We won't ever be alone
We get stronger while getting older
The search for direction is finally over
