about

Previously unreleased track written and recorded in 2014. Dave Lebleu of The Mercury Program sent me the beat while i was in Paris working on my debut solo album. The song never made it to "We Are Leaders Not Saints" but finally it found a home on Bandcamp.
Peace&Love

lyrics

Bang man down to hardcore sound, too loud too proud tupac going wow, no lie no sir no try, dont cry dont die dont run dont hide
that graffitti for the litty we got
see the shitty flee the city when its gritty its hot
Gotta plan
Did you break with the band
Is it still all love
is united we stand
On a pulpit of stupid together we can
Push the pedal to the metal say my mellow my man

Go turn up USA
dance all night and play all day oh
Loving Life again
Playskool bb leggo me oh
Rise and lean on me
Hot for teacher Ban TV nooo
Cool out,
Sail Away
Dance all night to this deejay oh

Picture perfect I paint a perfect picture
I paint a perfect picture my intention's to get with ya hit ya
With the realness
Ever since Pac gone a whole lotta soul missing listen do not mourn.
Lostfunkhiphoppostpunk
80s babies and taiko drums
While you worry bout the dress code
Who got the best flow?
I was chasing utopia with Nikki's manifesto
In Giovanni's room a lotta cats are staying now
I can never stray love it when she meow
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Neega supa star
My Neega Kumbaya ha
I pulled a John Cage staging the whole night
For 33 shots of us now in real life.

turn up USA
dance all night and play all day oh
Loving Life again
Playskool bb leggo me oh
Rise and lean on me
Hot for teacher,Ban TV nooo
Cool out,
Sail Away
Dance all night to this deejay oh
