Coffee

Verse One
After a night of whatever whatever
Hand in hand into the café we entered
Long Line
Still amazed how she figure me clever
Fall in love again? I thought I would never
Oh my
Back and forth how we tattling tales
Blurring lines between fake and the real
Still high
Baked chatter complimented by a full coffee shop
Full of indistinct words matter
Back at her
Conversation intermittently laced
Us juxtaposing coffee and race
Analogize the interracial debate
While we sit and we wait
The waitress comes
And Puts the cups on the plate
Verse Two
The waitress walked away with our smiles on her face
We dilated eyes ‘we aint know what to say
We sat there melting in a double stare
Then I, managed to hear a word whispered in my ear
“Contagious” said she, followed by two dope soliloquies
Offered by her and me: she told me how a women’s body is
A hidden calendar, menstruation work cycles like the universe works*
Meanwhile I’m getting us refilled hiding my furrow brow
I took a deep breath than confessed with a smile
“Love is my God, love is my child”

Chorus
No you can’t prosper here
Singing songs of joy
No weapon formed
Singing songs of Joy
Verse One
Just the other day
I saw a knife fall from a tree
Split the air and just miss my knee
Whoa!
Retrospect the blade was nowhere close to me
But Hopefully I can get myself to see
Manifest destiny
Just the other week
I heard a gun shot
At the burger spot
No one hurt
But some fries got dropped
And Right about a month ago
My man bungalow
Got stuck for his teddy polo
In front of JoJo’s
Same day hit the lotto
Looked at me and said
“Surely God fills the potholes (potholes)”
Ever-since I was a snot nose
I wore okay clothes
Hung out on 36th street
But kept a book close
Just the other day
I heard a Politician
Started flipping
Luckily no body in the crowd to listen
Just the other week
I saw a mute speak
Using sign language
That was beautiful and rather unique
Right about a month ago
A girl with Vitiligo
Seen love in the mirror
Eyes weren’t closed
Just the other day
I prayed the rain away
It was still raining but
My umbrella made it okay
Just the other week
Hair was on fleek
Took a step back
Cut her perm off
Now she free
Right about a month ago
My spirits were solo
Started --bracing my creative side
And low and behold
Let You Know
Verse One
[2:09]
Tell me tell me if you coming so
A 120 on the dash
If you wanna race lemmie know
Put your titties on center-fold
Put ya feet up on the dash
Here’s a blanket if you getting cold
Windows down in this motherfucker
Two pounds of that motherfucker
Loud in this motherfucker
All smiles in this motherfucker
That’s how I drive around never
God never let you down nigga
Chorus
Just Thought Let you know (x4)
Verse Two
[2:48]
I got an eagle in this motherfucker
I got a silent desert eagle if you creeping on me motherfucker
I’mma woke ass black brother
No joke ass, focused, haul ass motherfucker
No brakes for you motherfuckers
Middle finger
Any racist institution cuz ‘ey never loved us
No brakes for you motherfuckers
Middle finger
Any racist institution cuz ‘ey never loved us
Chorus
Just Thought Let you know (x4)

Summer Breeze
Discombobulating my stress with the wind
Let’s navigate the seas once again
The ocean remains my objective friend
Set sail and take it all in
That’s my summer goal
That’s my winter resolution
A smooth rocky road
Like grandmas hot chocolate mixed with a jelly roll
On Sunday morning
Mamma Nature’s calling
(Summer Breeze)
Summer Breeze
Discombobulating my stress with the wind
Let’s navigate the seas once again
The ocean remains my objective friend
Set sail and take it all in
(Written and performed by Heather Tarazi):
Summer Breeze
Can't stop thinking of it
Going where ever
I don't care where it is
Summer Breeze
It Kisses my skin
The perfect remedy
To grant me serenity

Adobo Seasoning

Chorus
Were going over seas again
I’m burning all my trees again
Chicken with Adobo Seasoning
(Birds and bees again…*)
Were going over seas again
I’m burning all my trees again
Chicken with Adobo Seasoning
Verse One
Unbeknownst to them
I’m fly as a hen
Fowl ain’t how dreams roasted the chick’s favorite
World pacific I cross Atlantic and sun bathe
Say hello to the trans Atlantic wave trade
Chorus (this one only me)
Going over seas again
I’m burning all my trees again
Chicken with Adobo Seasoning
(Birds and bees again…*)
Verse Two
Pour libations in the ocean watch the water hiccup
I’m addicted to the gas ancestors give up
Live up is what the water splash splish-up
Awl man a nigga drenched in ambition
Alice in chains to Alice in the Rover
Tell Alice In Chains here comes the rooster
Millions never made the shore
Spirits something like the Coast Guard
Testifying resting spirits all on the coaster
World peace world love
That’s Halal and Kosher
Never settle ‘til I WinFree, Oprah
If you coming bring some cumin and some poultry over
If you staying I’ll be sure to tell you in a postcard
Chorus
Were going over seas again
I’m burning all my trees again
Chicken with Adobo Seasoning
(Birds and bees again…laugh*)

Locomotion

(Starts off her asking me
Does she remember the first time I saw her)
Yeah, I was on the 2-train tryna train my thought
Transferred to 4h had to make that switch
Jumped on the 1 like an agent smith
You were wrapped in tattoos like a gangsta bitch
But I could sense by your vibe that you was artistic
I approached and sang with your ear music
Like!..
Locomotion come, join the ride (ba da)
Locomotion come, take me high* (ba da ba da da)
The look in your eyes said “not the time”
116 train stop was mine
I Stood up and through the glass, saw from behind,
You were moving on the track like a train pressing rewind
The hands on the clock on my wrist said “not the time”
I rushed out and heard the doors clearly close from behind
Took a deep breath and made use of the handrail
Deep breath sound* Epic Fail
Locomotion come, join the ride (ba da)
Locomotion come, take me high* (ba da ba da da)

Spreading The News

Chorus
Start spreading the News
Start spreading the news now
Start spreading the News
Start spreading the news now*
Verse One
[0:37 seconds]
I maneuver through these haters just armed with imagination
Seeing waves in a blue sky like Basquiat
If I ruled the world and everything in it, no limit
I’d drive a spaceship to infinite
Name it master p and come back with a bag of ribbons
Give Stevie a pair of eyes so he could witness
The metaphorical darkness we all live in
I imagine dung beetles in a submarine
Not yellow, but blue and a bit of green
Turn h.a.a.r.p into a harp and make the Earth sing
Weather or not the chemtrails stop
At light speed I’d turn C.E.R.N. into a jukebox
{C.E.R.N? C.E.R.N oh okay}
Verse Two
Instead of atoms they’d be smashing pumpkins
Thank you momma all the time you pack my lunch-in
It was scr-um-p-tious. Chicken with extra dumplings
Like it was nothing.
I see a poet on the beach just puffin, forever free,
Propped by the ever-harmony, which offers continuity
To you and me. (Like)
Chorus
Start spreading the News
Start spreading the news now
Start spreading the News
Start spreading the news now*
