00:00Strings hum low like ghosts in the air
00:13Dreams ain't fair, but I still dare
00:16Footsteps echo on a crackstone street
00:18Ambitions heavy, it drags my feet
00:21Shadows whisper, they know my name
00:23Half man, half myth, caught in the game
00:26I wear my scars like a soldier's crest
00:29Every wound's a story carved in my chest
00:31This is a overture, the rise and the fall
00:34A symphony of chaos, I answer the call
00:37Every note of battle, every bar of fight
00:39The mixtape whispers through the dead of night
00:42Bow strikes strings like a blade through silk
00:45Grit in my voice like blood in the milk
00:48Harmony and havoc, they blend and collide
00:50The journey begins, I can't run, I can't hide
00:53City lights flicker like they can't decide
00:56Truth and lies dance in the same divide
00:58I write my fate in the dust and the grime
01:01A clock with no hands, but it still keeps time
01:04Tension builds like a storm in my chest
01:06I walk the edge where the curse find rest
01:09The beat pounds heavy like a judge's gable

01:14Three, four, three

09:51Salsa en el barrio, fuego en la esquina
10:00La música sube, la luna camina
10:02Trap y tambor, el ritmo combina
10:05De la calle al cielo, mi gente destina
10:07Salsa en el barrio, fuego en la esquina
10:09La música sube, la luna camina
10:12Trap y tambor, el ritmo combina
10:14De la calle al cielo, mi gente destina
10:17Peso pesado, la cuadra lo sabe
10:19El oro brilla, aunque el sol se apague
10:21Hace mis venas, sangre de calle
10:24Cada paso firme sin que nadie me falle
10:26Mirada fría, hielo en el aire
10:29Pero el fuego adentro no se compare
10:31Estoy huyendo libre, no hay quien me pare
10:33Corazón de guerrero, mi nombre en los bares
10:36Mira como suena, el barrio respira
10:38De esquina a esquina, la vida compira
10:41Salsa en el barrio, todos lo sienten
10:43Ritmo que late, corazón ardiente
10:45Baila la luna, se mueve la gente
10:48Salsa en el barrio, presente y valiente
10:50Yo vengo de abajo, sueño en la acera
10:53Luchando pa' arriba, nadie me frena
10:56Me imite un mapa, calles de arena
10:58Cruzando fronteras, la vida es mi escuela
11:00Salsa en el barrio, fuego en la esquina
11:07La música sube, la luna camina
11:09Trap y tambor, el ritmo combina
11:12De la calle al cielo, mi gente destina
11:14Salsa en el barrio, fuego en la esquina
11:17La música sube, la luna camina
11:19Trap y tambor, el ritmo combina
11:21De la calle al cielo, mi gente destina
11:51La música sube, la música sube, la música sube
11:54Thoughts drip like wax on a tilted flame
11:59The sky breathes slow as it calls my name
12:06Shapes melting, folding
12:12Into something untamed
12:19Colors collide, no rules, no fight
12:28I'm floating, I'm falling, I'm light tonight
12:34Psilocybin thoughts
12:44They feel to try
12:59Whiskers and waves
13:06Bending the air
13:13Time breaks apart
13:16But I don't care
13:20Here is nowhere
13:27I'm already there
13:35Fingers chasing the edge of a dream
13:54Nothing's real but it's all supreme
13:59Psilocybin thoughts
14:09They beam and gleam
14:15To be happy
14:17Fingers falling
14:18I still have to get to
14:19Fingers crossed
14:23I'm already there
14:25Fingers crossed
19:31I'm the drumline sway
19:34Together we compose
19:37What the world won't play
20:01Don't be loving
20:29Don't be loving
20:41Don't be loving
20:59Don't be loving
21:12Don't be loving
21:13Don't be loving
21:14Don't be loving
21:19Big moves, every step, earth start quivering
21:21Quivering, quivering, quivering
21:23Country grammar, reload the hammer
21:25Spit so sharp, could spit the pan rammer
21:27Dancers rap it, scatter like a scanner
21:29Mic stay hot, melt down the antenna
21:31Country grammar, reload the hammer
21:33Spit so sharp, could spit the pan rammer
21:35Dancers rap it, scatter like a scanner
21:37Mic stay hot, melt down the antenna
21:39Tempo shift in the rims, no brakes
21:41Heart rate spike, D&B earthquake
21:43This the moment where the ground shakes
21:45Baseline thumping, brain on loops
21:47Free fall through truth, right where the blade cut deep
21:49No truce, mirror, mirror, who the illest on wax
21:51Got the answers, no riddles, no cracks
21:53Shift the lane, break rules, no tracks, versatility flex
21:55The weight on backs, country grammar
21:57Reload the hammer, spit so sharp, could spit the pan rammer
21:59Dancers rap it, scatter like a scanner
22:01Mic stay hot, melt down the antenna
22:03Road time breathless, no room to stammer
22:05Trap the jungle, no plan, just jammer
22:07We're written, no need for glamour, crown on my act
22:09It's the country grammar
22:17Drums of the past, they echo loud
22:19Drums of the past, they echo loud
22:33In my blood, I feel the crowd
22:35Ancestors whisper, hear the sound
22:37Oh yeah, I'm rooted, yet unbound
22:39We rise
22:41We rise
22:43We rise
22:45Above the night
22:47Through the stars
22:48We claim the light
22:49We claim the light
22:51We claim the light
22:53In my blood, I feel the crowd
22:55In my blood, I feel the crowd
22:57Ancestors whisper, hear the sound
22:59Oh yeah, I'm rooted, yet unbound
23:01We rise
23:03We rise
23:07Above the night
23:09Through the stars
23:11We claim the light
23:13We claim the light
23:15Afrofuturism
23:17Oh, it's alive
23:19Legacy dancing
23:21We survive
23:23Roots to the future
23:27We thrive
23:29We thrive
23:31Afrofuturism
23:33Oh, it's alive
23:37But steps in
23:53With a golden tone
23:55From Lego streets
23:57To a world unknown
23:59Forward we move
24:01But never alone
24:03Our rhythm's the bridge
24:05Our rhythm's the bridge
24:07The beat's our throne
24:09We rise
24:14We rise
24:18Above the night
24:21Through the stars
24:23We claim the light
24:26Afrofuturism
24:28Oh, it's alive
24:31Legacy dancing
24:33We survive
24:35We survive
24:36Roots to the future
24:38We thrive
24:39We thrive
24:40We thrive
24:42Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
24:44Afrofuturism
24:46Oh, it's alive
24:48It's our life
24:49Oh, oh, oh
25:15I heard the world breathing
25:18Slow and raw
25:21In the cracks of the sidewalk
25:24Where no one saw
25:27The dreams of a child
25:30With a chalk-drawn sky
25:33Who's been told too often
25:36Not to ask why
25:38Unplugged
25:41I feel it all too clear
25:44The weight of the whispers
25:47The pull of the fear
25:49Unplugged
25:52No mask
25:53No sound
25:54No voice
25:55Just us in the echo
25:58That answers our calls
26:01I saw a man with a sign
26:16Words faded gray
26:18He said the system broke him
26:22Threw him away
26:24A woman sang softly
26:27Her voice cracked and thin
26:30A song was a prayer for what could have been
26:35We walked past like ghosts
26:39Heads hung low
26:41But every shadow's got a story to show
26:46Unplugged
26:49Unplugged
26:50I feel it all too clear
26:52The weight of the whispers
26:56The pull of the fear
26:58Unplugged
27:01No mask
27:02No soundproof
27:03Just us in the echo
27:07That answers our call
27:10If we listen
27:24The silence hums
27:26With the beats of hearts
27:27That marches drums
27:29The walls we build
27:30They crumble slow
27:32Brick by brick
27:33We let love grow
27:35We let love grow
27:41Unplugged
27:47I feel it all too clear
27:49The weight of the whispers
27:53The pull of the fear
27:55Unplugged
27:58No mask
27:59No soundproof
28:00Just us in the echo
28:04That answers our call
28:07Unplugged
28:11Unplugged
28:18Unplugged
28:20Unplugged
28:21Unplugged
28:27Unplugged
28:34Yeah, uh, woke up, chains on the floor, what a symbol
29:04Prayers in the air through the clouds, they assemble
29:07Devils in the detail, tried to scribble my name
29:10But the ink don't stick when you're baptizing flames
29:13Dark nights, cold wind, but the armor held tight
29:16Faith on my tongue, sharper than a steel knife
29:19I fell, but he caught me, wings been infinite
29:22From the gutter to the sky, that's the realest, pivot
29:25Hallelujah, hallelujah, hear the choir sing
29:31Tears dry as high, till the blessings bring
29:37Redemption in the rhythm, yeah, we testify
29:43Hallelujah, hallelujah, watch the spirits rise
29:50Mama said prayers hit harder than the drum line
29:54I've been marching through the mantis, dodging landmines
29:57Shadows in my pad, but my steps still anointed
29:59Devil tried to call, left his number disappointed
30:03Angels in the outfield, coaching every play
30:06Put the Bible on my back, still I'm light as day
30:09Gratitude and melody, the harmony is grace
30:12Got the Lord on my side, every trial erased
30:15Storms came, but the ark kept me dry
30:18Every tear turned to seed, now the blessings multiply
30:21Hallelujah, hallelujah, hear the choir sing
30:27Tears dried, hands high, till the blessings bring
30:33Redemption in the rhythm, yeah, we testify
30:38Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
30:42Watch the spirits rise
30:45The 808's knocking, but the heartbeat steady
30:49Truth hit heavy, but the soul feels ready
30:52Choir in the back, voices cut through the rain
30:55Freedom in the cadence, breaking every chain
30:58Came from the ashes, now we glow in the embers
31:02Testimonies at the steep, we always remember
31:05Get into the sky
31:06Hope it's your way
31:09Hallelujah, hallelujah, yeah
31:12We're on our feet
31:16Tears dry, hands high
31:19Feel the blessings bring
31:22Hallelujah, hallelujah
31:24When we testify
31:28Hallelujah, hallelujah
31:30Watch the spirits rise
31:35Oh, oh, oh, oh
31:54Oh, oh, oh
32:05Drippin' gold dust off my veins
32:34Night bends and the air complains
32:37Mirror
32:39Mirror on the wall
32:46Who am I beneath it all?
32:54Sun stretch, why no end inside?
33:00Chasing shadows in neon light
33:10Desert roads, desert roads
33:13Bloom in a place where nothing grows
33:18Desert roads, desert roads
33:26Runs in the wind where the silence flows
33:30Diamond sky cuts through the hay
33:32Diamond sky cuts through the hay
33:42Cigarette smoke in a purple blaze
34:00Love
34:02Lost my name in the shifting sand
34:08Fingers trace where God's one stand
34:12Echoes, whispers, twist and twine
34:22In the heat I lose my mind
34:32Desert roads, desert roads
34:36Bloom in a place where nothing grows
34:46Desert roads, desert roads
34:48Doors in the wind where the silence flows
34:54Doors
35:04Create space
35:06Hoekh!
35:12I used to scribble dreams on the back of the bills
35:28Taught me how to stretch love when the couple was still
35:31Empty as the fridge, but you made it feel full
35:35Every hug you gave me, mama, built my soul
35:39I'm sorry for the nights I stayed out too late
35:42Heard your voice in my head like a vinyl's weight
35:45Scratched and spinning, but still it played
35:48You said love don't break, it just bends and sways
35:52Dear mama, you're my sunrise
36:00Even in the dark, you're my lifeline
36:03Every step I take, I hear your song
36:07You kept me standing when the world went wrong
36:12The world called me reckless, but you called me your son
36:25You knew my fight before it had begun
36:28Taught me to carry pain like a badge, not a chain
36:31Told me storms pass, but the roots remain
36:34I watched you hold the sky with hands so worn
36:38Every wrinkle's a story, every scar's reborn
36:40You said tears don't weaken, they water the ground
36:44Mama, your strength's the echo in my sound
36:48Dear mama, you're my sunrise
36:57Even in the dark, you're my lifeline
37:00Every step I take, I hear your song
37:04You kept me standing when the world went wrong
37:07You're my sunrise
37:09Even in the dark, you're my lifeline
37:12Every step I take, I hear your song
37:17You kept me standing when the world went wrong
37:20I see you in the mirror when I laugh, when I cry
37:25Your shadows in my heartbeat
37:30Your names in my sky
37:32I see you in the mirror when I laugh, when I cry
37:37Your shadows in my heartbeat
37:42Your names in my sky
37:45I see you in the mirror when I cry
38:15I see you in the mirror when I cry
38:40slow beat from overture fades in ghostly and warped layers of ambient rain patterned gently
38:50filling the empty spaces a distant saxophone wails aching and lonely
38:58like a voice lost in time
39:02echoes shimmer then dissolve into static the chrome dream bends then breaks into gray silence
