Rainy Day EP Lyrics
Too Sunny
I got too much to do today
I Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Wanna go for a walk with me?
Got too much to do today
Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Just come for a walk with me
Why do I own four raincoats if I like to feel the raindrops
I keep trying to sing songs maybe I should just stick to hip hop
Train is leaving - where do I get off in believing I could just hop off
I like to sit with sadness but if its yours I’ll make the pain stop
Got freedom or are you chained?
You living proud or you ashamed?
You changing or you same?
You changing or you same?
Inspired or are you drained?
Inspite of all that we gained,
Aren’t you tired of the game?
I’m tired of this game.
I’m not who you wanted me to be
Wanted it for you but I found it for me
Thought I knew what love was apparently I didn’t see
That freedom is what love is - and now I hold the key
To open opportunities mistakes are turned to little trees
We paint them on blank canvases and hope the cost is worth the fee
But nothing is as priceless as the quiet moments in between
There’s happiness in stillness - just listen carefully
Got too much to do today
Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Wanna go for a walk with me?
Got too much to do today
Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Just come for a walk with me.
Wanna be grooving - but I’m pursuing
Those dreams I’m chasing - gotta keep moving.
Why am I doing the things that I’m doing?
I wanna be fluid I wanna be fluent.
I wanna be suited to live my life rooted.
But I’m only human - its feeling polluted
Ive given my all and I’m leaving diluted.
One day if I fall, will you water the tulips?
You say you will heard that one before I’ll be honest
The daffodils need more to grow than just an empty promise
They need sunshine with the solace - rainclouds with the calmness
If it pours too much I need to know that you’ll protect the softness
August, it burns hottest and the roses, even smallest
Need to be loved and acknowledged, it’s their thorns that make them flawless
After they have fallen- in the spring with a fresh pollen
Maybe they can grow again, but I want flowers in the Autumn
Brrr, you feel that breeze? (yeah) That was a cold chill
Focusin on steeze is how you catch one, and control kills
How will you keep climbing if those mountains turn to molehills
Ashes turn to dust and I know even the gold will
Got too much to do today
Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Wanna go for a walk with me?
Got too much to do today
Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Wanna go for a walk with me?
Got too much to do today
Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Wanna go for a walk with me?
Got too much to do today
Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Wanna go for a walk with me?
Beautiful creature, wonderful teacher.
Stay learning - we need the seekers
Desire tangible - but be a dreamer
We are adaptable - embrace the ether
Time is agile, moments are fragile,
All of us have gone through our own trials
All of us know that we live in a world wild
It’s important to breathe in the meanwhile
This is your genre you are the author
The flower’s are blooming wherever you water
It is consuming, the courage to wander
Whisper your mantra and onward you saunter
Leaving the road and embarking on trails.
Looking for the signs to be felt like they’re braille
Go where you roam there’s no need for details
You don’t need to know only trust you won’t fail
Nature never seems to hurry yet somehow it’s all gets finished
If you let the day’s get blurry you’ll forget that life’s a privilege
I got tired of the worry, that’s when I embraced forgiveness
Rather watch the ferrets scurry, that’s the proper kinda business.
The jobs is never finished all of us have got our limits
If you need it, take this minute - if you just want it, come and get it
Let the clouds pour down extinguish and drown out the doubting limericks
It’s a choice to feel alive so when the storm hits you, just let it.
I got too much to do today
I Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Wanna go for a walk with me?
I got too much to do today
I Wish I could just walk away
Why’s it sunny I miss the rain
Just come for a walk with me
Hey Mylo, you wanna go for a walk?
Who wants to go for a walk? Who’s the goodest boy?
Blooming
Was always a conflict of thought since I’ve never quite lived with the surf as my ship and the sun in my arms
Pavement I’ve licked and I cruise a land yacht ripping’ turf in my whip that’s the charm
This enslavement is sick I can’t seem to cure it can’t predict what is wrought you just use what you’re taught
So tell me your loco motives,
You’re driven, but are you really living?
Sunkisses my basis like stars freckle faced
No tangent is wasted all fragments replaced in lace
It’s spacious and oddly arboraceous
Don’t need a hiatus your mind’s an oasis - a place
Petal’s embraces to some might seem tasteless
But I’ll leave you traces of hope in a vase
Some artists want plays some artists want praise and that’s dope but some artists want space
Lately I’m busy blooming
Please give me room to grow
Can’t you see these mountains need moving?
Please let me go
Lately I’m busy blooming.
Please give me room to grow.
Can’t you see these mountains need moving?
Please let me go.
You don’t choose a path - if is you that is chosen
Don’t mean to impose would you smell this rose and
If you hold it close do you mind it has thorns?
Daydreaming meadows and a sunrise that’s warm
My brain’s hieroglyphics I miss the pacific
I illicit wicked I think you’re terrific
Your aura acrylic - your iris idyllic
And though I love love, right now I can’t feel it
Make goodness your basis and have no plays wasted
Don’t copy and paste it - define days creative
Our roots deep in greatness - stay in goodest graces
The motif of matrix state that risks are weightless
Today’s your encore but tomorrow no promise
Watchu waiting for - nothing is ever flawless
So open the door - and then relish the rawness
Regardless of onus - you got this
Don’t moan and groan it.
You’re your own opponent
Find your path and hone it.
Fulfilments most potent
Enrol in each moment
The dreams - don’t postpone it
Each day’s a bestowment,
So we keep da coals burnt
You gonna live shallow, or are you a diver?
A gentle reminder - to always be kinder.
We’re all facing battles - we’re all in the grinder.
Be a dreamscape designer
Lately I’m busy blooming
Please give me room to grow
Can’t you see these mountains need moving?
Please let me go
Lately I’m busy blooming
Please give me room to grow
Can’t you see these mountains need moving?
Please let me go
I must be admitting I’m catching time slipping
I pencil in moments of conscious I’ve written
I’m stencils of tokens of emotions smitten
We all play the hero we all play the villain
We all play all parts in an interesting story
I’m here swaying hearts and combating the boring
Just want to make art reinvest in the glory
Bring comfort to the purgatory
I’m living my vision - any cynicism’s
I am cataclysm into cyan skizms
Tied up like we’re ribbon get flax like a linen
Our mind’s can be prisons - I’d rather them prisms
All sizes of niceness face me with crisis
We all have our vices - success comes with prices
A moment’s worth amplifies when it’s past
What would you do if this one was your last?
Lately I’m busy blooming
Please give me room to grow
Can’t you see these mountains need moving?
Please let me go
Lately I’m busy blooming
Please give me room to grow
Can’t you see these mountains need moving?
Please let me go
Streetlights
Want my words to resonate
So the world relates
It’s the great debate
Seems we appreciate
When its a bit too late
So we cast blame and wait
Shinin’ a flame on fate
Will we make the same mistakes?
Probably not, I know
But does the past look gold
We’re veering paths, its cold
Outside - like December
At my wits end though I won’t remember
Aren’t we all our worst adversaries?
Pin it on each other like we Tom and Jerry
Arbitrary now that we’re solitary
Weird how you could have been the one I married
I'm kidding myself that I’m over all that
But the late night’s got ma thought freights matte black
You once told me you wouldn’t end up a rap
But you end up in my thoughts cuz I think a lot
Fresh snow on the streets and I know
Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold
Streetlights bring me peace so I go
Even though I don’t know where I’m going.
Feeling some sort of waaaay
Feeling some sort of how
Not sure of the way, thought I’d have figured out
I’ll keep riding that wave - until ma light goes out
Know that without a doubt, it’ll always work out
Rocking a crowd, I hope that you’d be proud
Does the quiet comfort or do you miss loud?
See ma depths are profound and when I was around.
You’d get my heads from the clouds I’d get yours off the ground
Icarus died cuz he shot too high
just a reminder not to act to fly
Thoughts of an outsider - when there’s tears to cry
You are the decider when to say bye bye
Love is blind, cause it takes eye for eye
At times it was ugly, but you were always kind
That say love is freedom - but I felt confined
Couldn’t find freedom and was tired of trying
You were tired too. If that’s one thing I knew
Miscommunications blues become blown fuse
People feel used, emotionally bruise
I’d like to be excused. I didn’t mean to hurt you
But see in the process I hurt myself too,
Cuz you break-in’ off a piece of yourself to start new
They’re called break ups - but they lead to breakthroughs
But your substitutes just given’ me deja vu
Sweet pea you called me. Like I was a broom.
We clean up real good, eh? Growing room.
Floating through space, I’m in the flume
Nights they can be manic but I learn from gloom.
When I went, I ignored any reason to stay.
I know I made the right choice, at the time, anyways
Rise and grind, wish you coffee and rays
20,000 mornings left in our days
Fresh snow on the streets and I know
Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold
Streetlights bring me peace so I go
Even though I don’t know where I’m going
Knocked down my wall I permitted it
You were so good at fixing but there’s no tool kit
I could justify it - or admit that I quit
Wasn’t healthy for us to be living like that
Not sure if I just let it channel
I know I’m never given more than I can handle
Feel burnt at both ends and I’m holding the candle
I’m a damsel on a mantle that comes with no manual
Can’t take it back I can’t put you through that
It’s a fact - people aren’t objects on racks
I step back - don’t react - see the progress you’ve stacked
Adolescents learning adult lessons with tact
Besides I’m happy on my own
Satisfied with progress I’ve grown
Passion plays out in ma headphones
I smile thinking bout all the milestones
Thank you for showing me strength within me
I get stubborn, It’s not easy
You went every length to do better by me
You showed me parts of myself I wasn’t ready to see
Old habits die hard, guess that you’re one of those
You’re the ace of the cards eternalize in the prose
At work last week, I saw a couple propose
I lost my composure saw my shadow
Tears of joy - looks off however
If I didn’t take off - could yo u have dealt me better?
Time seems still when you thinking forever
I’d kill it with you, don’t matter the weather
Been running lots. from my problems
If I keep running’ I won’t have to solve em
The days are getting shorter. I switch to the nights.
I remember I told you we’d be alright
Fresh snow on the streets and I know
Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold
Streetlights bring me peace so I go
Even though I don’t know where I’m going
Fresh snow on the streets and I know
Footprints in the sleet I’m not cold
Streetlights bring me peace so I go
Even though I don’t know where I’m going.
3 AM
Not Alone
Weaving thoughts like spiders in my studio
They’re reminders of just where the shadows go
An addict of the highs and lows
The manicness good for the show
I panic less when I propose the purpose of my syllables
P-p-p-paper mache pufferfish are neon when I’m dreaming
They are floating off the ceiling and my world is a museum
Be with me I’ll show you freedom Spontaniety my demon
What are yours? Do they need feeding? Introduce me, I can’t see em
I think that I’ve had too much on my plate
I’m trying to get my thoughts to relate;
Apologies came a little late
But I really do hope that you’re doing great
Reciprocate kindness if you don’t taste it
You’ll see snideness just might replace
People waited, egos inflated
Friendship’s simple - life’s complicated
I forgot my patience I’m nervous I’m wasting
My last bits of passion and purpose on waiting
I’m either lost chasing or busy escaping
Been runnin’ so long I’m exhausted.
The harmless ain’t heartless
Cuz they know what loss is.
Not scared of the darkness
It builds us as artists
My favourite part? the part that is hardest -
It helps to remind us we got this
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Lying here awake how can the silence be so deafening?
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Why is it I can’t stop wondering about what could’ve been?
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Will we get along again? Will you play my songs again?
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Will this track distract you when you lay awake at 3 am?
Late at night no birds chirping just some coyotes in the distance (Awoo)
I had high hopes I could list them (I could)
But they’re gone - and I don’t miss them (Nope)
In any instance sorry if I’ve been distant
Holding on is resistance - and my minds been inconsistent (Let go)
Consistently though - I’ve been doing daily rituals (Namaste)
Good habits I’ve grown - I’m perpetually fixing my lulls (Everyday)
Theres so much unknown - and I’m tired of the skeptical (Aren’t y’all)
So I’ll change my tone and I’ll shine like the moon that is full (I don’t wanna be dull)
I remember when it was waning
Goin’ full steam motives are draining
Lost in dreams don’t wanna be waking
World is turning records rotating
Open this book to read my glimpses
With one look you’ll know my eclipses
Watch them glisten far off and distant
My thoughts echo it’s hard to listen
Reality blurs the possibilities
Dusk daydreams spur soft soliloquies
It’s tempting to visit in your dreams
We are safer left as memories
What I know is true is that yeah, we coo’
It’s a beautiful world, even if it’s blue
Gotta choose who you want and see it through
I just hope for now this song will do
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Lying here awake how can the silence be so deafening?
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Why is it I can’t stop wondering about what could’ve been?
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Will we get along again? Will you play my songs again?
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
Will this track distract you when you lay awake at 3 am?
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
It’s 3 am again and I’m lost inside my head again
You ain’t alone x3
Even when you’re far from home you ain’t alone
You ain’t alone x3
You ain’t alone

Even when you’re far from home you ain’t alone
You ain’t alone x3

Slow jam Oh damn Woah ma/am? No man
Flow bam I ran woe’s swam drippin spray can
Cyan caravan sizzling’ frying pan
Fo shizzle a diaphragm
Drizzlin’ the diagram

Room booms like a 45’ in Japan
Oh snap - can she say that - well I am

Meltin’ the ice she’s no bore

The frozen apple? He hardcore
Crunchy apple of yo’ eye serial chilla who is fly
Achille’s feeling like he tried and now he’s busy driving by
Gonna stair into your risers
Whiskey business like it’s Weisers
Here’s some tasty appetizers
You ain’t alone x3
Even when you’re far from home you ain’t alone
You ain’t alone x3
You ain’t alone
You ain’t alone x3
Even when you’re far from home you ain’t alone

Because I know you are a phony
Oh I’m so lonely (So lonely)
Lonely for you Only (for you)
But I don’t want you to phone me (just don’t)
