Bubbles 02:56
Verse 1 Sa’k ki frajil ou pa ka inyorel sa son leson back then yo te di’m This melanin is the one that I’m in li bèl li briller tan kon diamantine Oh men Delphine! Li fèk rive Gade li sanble on cover magazine le’m feuilleter paj/ anyen m’pa ka wè gen de moun yo pale, yap pase’ou nan mize yo te met di’m se pa sa é lè nou bouje se par là E bay yo fin klè, mem san limye sa son reflet, gade ou ka wè/ All of the things that I felt gave me cues for clearing the path and bridging the gaps seizing the moment or slip to the cracks you slow to respond you're facing the facts e nou pa kè dé moun ki pa kè tan ou ap pedi fè plezi tout moun Sa se chemen’m , kouri dèyè’m Sa m’vle di ou , gotta pay dues this lane that I’m in is the one that I choose nothing to prove but I’m daily improving get in my shoes, escape for a day so you can see the world that I see gade yo yap voye dlo cho sou ti moun yo e ou pa ka di’m ke moun sa yo byen nan tet yo kwè yo saint tan kou Franklin men remèd lan nou bezwen’l E sou vibe sa nap excel a swa, nou la nou gen zèl Verse 2 Shackles are broken, moving and packing, Back in the zone, changing my tone. Getting a hold—who’s in control? A weekend ago, I was working my angles. Those were the words wrapped in bubbles— The day it popped, I started to float. Probably drifting, understanding. Shouts to the warriors when they go___ Hollering and spinning the wheel. Mine’s on the loose, check out the rizz. 24/7, squeezing the lemon, Taking a pause to rest on the seventh. Transcending time, all depending, Open is one when they’re ascending. Beyond the one, we do shine, Aligning, affirming, and crossing time.

Vendredi 03:42
Verse 1 Zanmi m’ se Daniel, Li travay chak swa. Lè li pran on poz, wi li renmen rale Pou’l ka relax, Li pa renmen bwè, E li g’on timoun, Bagay yo pa fin vrè Fanm li te kite’l, Li tounen Jakmèl, G’on kriz deyò, kay yo vin chè. Si ou Montreal, ou ap konprann sa m’ap di ou. Li ret sou Plato, kounye-a Li pral Anjou. Tèt li fè’l mal, manman’l ret Laval. Li pran retrèt li, li di pou’l fè kob. Tèt li fin gren, li bezwen on tchas. Machin li kraze, métro an bloke. Zanmi’l ap texte’l, yo di’l lan reta. De zè nan line-up, yo prèt pou rantre. Li jwenn on 100 goud nan pòch jakèt li, Li sote nan Uber, li prèt pou l’ale. Chorus Semèn lan fèk fini, aswè nou pap dòmi. Jodi e vandredi, nou gen pou nou soti( x2) Verse 2 Tan kou kay de papel, rèv mwen li bèl M’pa nan vòlè, m’gen twòp valè. Vin bò kote m’, jodi e tou pa m’. Tèt mwen gaye, kote m’ pou m’ pase? Pou’m fè w konnen, se ou m’ap tcheke. Semèn lan te di, m’pa anvi panse. M’pa anvi pale, m’anvi danse. Mennen w lakay mwen, sèlman si w vle. Chorus Semèn lan fèk fini, aswè nou pap dòmi. Jodi e vandredi, nou gen pou nou soti( x2) Bridge Ma chè, tande m, kite’m di ou mwen pap janm kite w. Mwen renmen w, men wi, chak fwa zye fèmen, nap danse. Verse 3 Li rantre lakay li, tout kò l kraze. Semèn nan kò l, li difisil pou l wè klè. Yon lèt sou tab la, men ki bagay sa? Fanm li te nève, li kite l pou zanmi l. Li di l konsa: “E pa anyen ou ap regle. Ou gen twou nan pòch ou e dèt jiska kou. E chak jou, sa ou fè, se bay bèl pawòl. Aprè tout pale sa, mwen toujou grangou.” Li met men sou tèt li, li di l ap vag sou li. Li chita byen dwat pou manje diri l ak sòs pwa, e sa son bon cwa. Men, si son kou di, li toujou gen fwa. Li pèdi job li, li pèdi fanm li. Li pèdi rèv li, men pa tout tèt li. Depi ou gen espwa, bagay yo ap anfòm. Dèyè an ka nwa, e devan, limyè. Chorus 1 Semèn lan fèk fini, aswè nou pap dòmi. Jodi e vandredi, nou gen pou nou soti( x2) Chorus 2 Heyy!!! Semèn lan fini, aswè a nou pap dòmi. E vandredi, nou pral soti (x 4)

Kouri 03:16
Verse1 Tan an pase, kounye a li rete lwen. Mwen sonje JFP, li te fè m santi m byen. Mwen te damou pou li, tout zanmi te konnen. On regard, on sourir, se tout sa m bezwen. Mwen te bon nan desen, e Jou St-Valentin. Mwen leve nan lannuit, li te de zè dimat. Mwen te gen yon kre nan men, mwen te prèt pou vandal. Dèyè lekòl, mwen te jwenn yon bèl stationnement. Oh, grand ke pou m ka mete de non yo nan mitan. E Lymie te nan zye m, yo t ap briye pou li. E Kem’ te transparan tankou fèy asètat. Eksperyans sa pou mwen, li te yon bèl etap. Mwen t ap kouri dèyè l’, tankou nonm te Bruny. Ak tout sa m fè pou li, li pa janm okipe m. E 3 an pi ta, lè m te wè l’ nan ti ba. Kem te kraze, e fwa sa li pat pou li. Chorus: Woy! Lè m rele w, ou pa tande m. Di m kisa mwen bezwen fè pou nou ka renmen. Kem lejè, ou fè m chante. Di m kisa mwen bezwen fè pou nou ka renmen. Verse 2 Seule dans la foule, je me roule comme une boule. C’est l’amour que je cherche, ceci dit je postule. On m’dît que c’est comblé, donc je retourne ma bulle. Quand je cours vers toi, tu t’éloignes, j’en témoigne. Je t’épargne les détails, chaque jour c’est pareil. Cette passion nous unit, mais dis-moi, à quel prix ? Les nuits se rallongent depuis que t’es parti. Mon reflet dans le miroir, je me demande qui je suis. Et quand je t’oublie, tu réapparais, et quand tu m’oublies, je réapparais. Vaut mieux s’oublier, et pas se faire d’idées, Mais cette idée, oui, elle est qu’une pensée. Après réflexion — dis-moi ce qui est mieux. Je pense à un lieu, loin des petits jeux. Et quand je me lance dans le vide du milieu, Ce que je vois, c’est un pont entre nous deux. Chorus: Woy! Lè m rele w, ou pa tande m. Di m kisa mwen bezwen fè pou nou ka renmen. Kem lejè, ou fè m chante. Di m kisa mwen bezwen fè pou nou ka renmen. Bridge M' bouke, Se chak jou, Pou m' kouri, Dèyè ou M' bouke, Se chak jou, Pou m' kouri, Dèyè ouuuuuuu… Dèyè ouuuuuuu… Chorus: Woy! Lè m rele w, ou pa tande m. Di m kisa mwen bezwen fè pou nou ka renmen. Kem lejè, ou fè m chante. Di m kisa mwen bezwen fè pou nou ka renmen. Outro Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa pou m fe pou m renmen Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa pou m fe pou m renmen Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa pou m fe pou m renmen Di m kisa Di m kisa Di m kisa pou m fe pou m renmen Di m kisa Di m kisa

Stay 03:49
Verse 1 Let it go, let it flow, we're able To move back when things felt so simple. Angels whispered, said you're single, So I’ma ask you out, and you won't regret it. I know in the past you've been neglected, And I’ma squeeze you tight and you'll feel protected. Pain and love are now well detected, My sense of self has been perfected. You swallowed my love, and I’m just loving it, To be next to you, and taste your emotions. Once more, hot damn, so addictive, It feels so good without being conflicted. When we connect, it feels like we are cruising, This energy field goes beyond the ceiling. Very telling, it's worth a million, And like Gary Carter, you'll catch my feelings. Chorus How’d you get so pretty? Stay one night, don’t leave me. Leave your past behind, And we’ll be fine, let’s take it easy (x2) Bridge Pain just goes away, Love is here to stay. Verse 2 And when you were gone, I was like reloading, Decoding, holding (what was golden). See, I’m not the type who likes to gamble, But I’ll take my chance, you’re like a dimple, Cute when smiling and I’m reminded. The Fall is coming, it’s cuffing season. I like to keep you close, like shore to ocean. The motion’s on, you and I are woven, Ease me, it’s easy, let’s get busy. Noisy, maybe, you’ll get to know me, And now flying, and won’t be landing, 'Cause what I’m all about is mind expanding. And I remain grounded, well surrounded. Just like your presence, short of romance, It’s inside my book that I can make you famous, And I’ll get you hooked, just like this chorus Chorus How’d you get so pretty? Stay one night, don’t leave me. Leave your past behind, And we’ll be fine, let’s take it easy (x2)

Impermanence 02:08
I’m walking the path showing minimal resistance/ People can be foul that's why I keep my distance/ I've settled with this gift, since then I made it happen/ It's bigger than me, why resist, I just listen/ It's been hard without you today I've been reflecting I had to sit down, start scrolling through my dm’s you left your kids behind but I know you live through them there's not a day passing where I wonder what happened But if I keep asking will I ever get the answers I focus on the now but the past remains painful I saw you in my dreams the other night, it felt real. you said things were fine but I cried it's unreal And since you've been gone there haven't been much progress Blacks are still the target being bullied in the media Trying to find ways to outsmart my algorithm illusion of a freedom is what I see on the daily i've been around world trying to find this new home but if you ask me, see my home is where my heart is/ Rather be this thinker than a brainless follower And yo! best believe they pulling tricks like the riddler I'm trying to stay active on things that really matter I’m sick of the distraction that brings more anxiety I raise my cup high my friend wherever you be And maaan it feels just to know that you're free/ Rest in peace Ultra cuz you’re a true King your spirit lives on cuz the Sun’s still shining spread positivity by any which means the cycle continues, the cycle continues, the cycle continues, the cycle continues,

Dance with me tonight, Let’s make it to the stars, 'Cause we know who we are. Dance with me tonight, Let’s make it to the stars, 'Cause we know who we are. Don’t you look away We can’t afford to run, We both deserve to play. Hearts will laugh and will cry, Seasons change, goals renamed. Watch it glow, brand new growth Clouds may drift, you can see. In this ship, it’s you and me. Time does know, just let it goooooooooooo. Dance with me tonight, Let’s make it to the stars, 'Cause we know who we are. Dance with me tonight, Let’s make it to the stars, Cause we know who we are. I was waiting, then you came in, Blew my whole frame, so amazing. Verse : See, my growth and expansion goes beyond what I’m painting, The landscape is new, and my love is so ancient. I never lack the patience when it’s time to build something. The king is now gone, but his spirit lives on. I raised it up high, since you are higher than a drone. I sing alone, in the zone, all alone, on my phone, And till this day, I can’t believe that you are gone. The water‘s leaking from my eyes, but still I’m staying strong. I just hope it was a peaceful transition. We move at different times, but the days stay the same. We celebrate the living, giving birth to new beginnings, And pushing black excellence, reaching new heights. Been screaming for a minute, but you ain't trying to hear me. The maker is keeping note for those who truly see, Creating this wolf council, and need to keep the hustle. We’re in for the long run, so bruh, let’s just buckle up. ___ Dance with me tonight, Let’s make it to the stars, 'Cause we know who we are. Dance with me tonight, Let’s make it to the stars, 'Cause we know who we are. Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight

Verse1 Fòk ou gen zepòl laj ak on dal kouraj Pou ka kite dèyè tout bagay ou te renmen. Jwenn yon paspò pou ka kite peyi pa’w, Gen twòp pow pow dèyè tèt nou, chak jou nap viv non kouchema. Trop twomà pou’m jere, déchire yon manman kap gade pitit li, E li konnen li pap janm tounen. Li fin lage lekòl, Paul, yon zanmi ki te grandi avè’l, Non katye bò kot Cité Soleil, vann 2...3 bagay, mete kòb sou kote. Pa pale paske ou pa konnen kiyès kap koute’w. Se pa sèlman ké nan lanwit ké yo vole rèv. Pou ki sa ou pral non kote ki gen nèj? Mwen gon plan pou’m fè kòb lòt bò. Chérie, pa enkyète, map fè’w vini nan 12 douz mwa, map fè sa. M’gen 2...3 zanmi lòt bò, yo di’m konsa: “Bayaye yo fasil.” An plis, yo pale on lang nou konprann. Chorus Tonè boule m Yo fin vole'm, Kay mwen yo pran'l Kote'm prale Verse 2 Li rive aéroport Dorval, Montréal, yon nouvo chapit, dlo nan zye’l, Ke’l ranpli, plen espwa, li jwenn on moun ki di’l konsa: “Se men nou menm. Ki kote ou prale? Map baw woulib, m’gon biznis taxi.” Li jwenn on deal, on garaj chak mwa, l’paye 20 dola, Pa gen kaban, chak jou li dòmi a tè, Se rat ki ap vizite’l. Bagay sa a pa anyen, fò’l degaje’l. Pou’l jwenn mwayen met kòb nan men’l, Li fè on kòb ap bayè kou auto-defans. Li fè fanm li, ak sèl, manman’l pou vin rejwenn li. Bagay yo di, yap eseye entegre. Kounye a la te dakèy, li fim tounen yon tè ostil. Dal insult yo resevwa chak jou, yap toufe pwòp feeling yo, Pou 2 timoun yo ka grandi. Kounye a m’kompren pou kisa Mama te di’m: "Nan peyi sa a fò’w travay pi fò pase blan Chorus Tonè boule m Yo fin vole'm, Kay mwen yo pran'l Kote'm prale Verse 3 Untold unfold we are the one from the generation of the children that was moved From creation, and saw the sight and know we're from the original status.... Status is us, can not replace us, can not mistake us the melanin skin Sound of the coil of the hair, the antenna The foundation is strong I n I come from the Caribbean Immigrant, migrate Huh! For something greater than great Man underestimate and the eyes open wide Because you had to see it from every side It wasn't equal justice and tell you have to work harder than hard and hard and hard It never really stop...you know what I mean huh huh huh So what's next? Let me tell you that...stay on top of your things man They say AI artificial intelligence Why would you want intelligence to be artificial? Isn't truth, nature....natural isn't this what they defend?
