another night is another dream is another day
is another choice between the 10,000 or the way
you know light shines right through that fearful wall you put in front of me
you know both sides are just the same too full if not empty
when beauty has been named as all you want to be
ugliness is born and it's in all that you see
you're gonna break if you stand so rigidly
your greatest path to strength is that of fluidity
you tried to give away your love but they didn't want it so they didn't get it
so you hardened up your heart as if toughness is what would give it (power)
if you try to give away your love and they didn't want it they just didn't get it
now if i even touched your heart i think it would start to break in a minute
shatter!
so be wise and recognize when tides arise and flow
or you'll sink like a stone filled with the weight of "no no no no no"
i wanna see you as all, as a sage-
i wanna call to you when you have no name
(chorus)
i want a supple love ooooo
be like water love flowwww
i see you as a sage, whats above and below
don't shatter

Friends - The Way

Realize You

Lyrics: 

Threatened by the law,
I crawled in a comfortable lap
Crucified by love,
I fell in a predictable trap.
All at what cost?
All I could think about was that.
And all that was lost,
That I've seen in dreams.

Simple as 1 2 3 4, 
methodical persuasion
I know you've done this before,
You've mastered the equation.
But you'll only hurt yourself, not me.
And anyone you've done it to before,
You'll also bear the weight of.
I don't need to settle the score,
You are the perpetrator.
You'll judge yourself, you'll never be free.

The cheater never wins,
Even if he ends the game with the highest score.
And the liar never knows love,
You can't earn that through force.
I know the illusion of power
Just leaves you needing more.
In your loneliest hour,
You'll be haunted by me.

Simple as 1 2 3 4, 
methodical persuasion
I know you've done this before,
You've mastered the equation.
But you'll only hurt yourself, not me.
And anyone you've done it to before,
You'll also bear the weight of.
I don't need to settle the score,
You are the perpetrator.
You'll judge yourself, you'll never be free.


1 2 3 4

Lyrics.
frustration and depression breaks me down
descending like they wanted underground
the further our journey the less you care
that's why you laugh at Kanye when he's talking in a chair
but the same conversation but replaced,
is good enough for laughs or a smile on your face,
happy to be singing all our songs to survive,
but when we need help, you don't get off til 5. 
it's powerful to feel so alone in a group

let me break this down for you and tell you how we feel again,
your fear is all you hold on to, so when you see me it's not fair
i have nothing left to give when you don't notice what is wrong,
Charleston left me broken down but it's just another day to you

i ain't got nothing left to give you
and i'm too tired, to even talk about it
while watching the fire,

tasting pain coming from a place of truth 

to be another in a messy world
to feel like giving in another turn?
you wouldn't listen if i told you

so how can i become anyone?

Never Let Me Go (Cover Feat. Florence Welch)

Seven months ago the band Lemonade shared with the world their song "Neptune". It's a wonderful pop song, with wonderful melodies and connectable / perfect lyrics. As I tend to do with most songs I hear and love. I covered it, as an exercise usually only for myself, but this time I sent it to the band.
At the time I loved the lyrics, but right now seven months later... i fully appreciate the lyrics, so in the absence of new Blood Orange materiel... here it is. 

p.s I asked my friend Starchild to perform a rap at the end of the track. (You should definitely grab his most recent mix tape Night Music - http://blacknouveaux.tumblr.com/post/17595019309/starchild-night-music-ep )

Anyway enough. Enjoy. 
Devonté <3
