Lost In Your Head (Feat. Walkingshoe)

@EliasAbid - Falling Seas (feat. aura)
track 1 of 8 off Мишка Records [@bloglin] "TOKENS" Compilation Album

Lyrics:
I want you to remember me /
I won't become a memory /
My destiny is calling me /
I'm standing under falling seas / I feel the pressure / 
Oh yeah it's coming down /
Keep giving me the runaround /
Find me when the sun is down /
The light can't pierce the water / go down to where it's darker /
Where I go you cannot follow / don't even try to follow me /
Ocean waves are crashing down all around my head /
It's sink or swim / it seems I've lost my breath
Do you remember when I ceased to be the same? /
Just wanted them to know my name 

Elias Abid - Falling Seas (feat. aura)

Wamba Wuice (Instrumental)

Track 5 of 8 from the Tokens Compilation via @bloglin and These Days, curated by @neonpajamas

Featuring vocals from @Robo_Chando and @NotCaeJones

Chando:
Memories, Hennessy,
Hennessy by the sea,
And I wanna go back to that,
I think I met you in the past,
In a dream, in a stream,
In a kingdom I was the king, you were the queen when I heard a scream,
Maybe you were pumping gasoline, ,
Perhaps on the cover of a magazine,
But I think you were eating a tangerine in the mezzanine,
I'm not really sure,
Never cared about the mula,
Til I got to knew ya,
Every pretty girl like, "hey hi how ya do ya?"
I've been grinding like a scooter,
I've been puffing Buddha,
I maneuver thru manure in the sewer,
Oh yeah,
I see London I see France,
Girl I like the way you dance,
Girl I like, Girl I like,
You're the girl I like,
And your world is bright,
Can I make it dim,
Wanna take a swim

Hook:

You ain't gotta take your clothes off,
we can just turn our phones off
Close your eyes and doze off
but first could you take your shoes off?
Boricua, morena, dominicana, colombiana

Cae Jones:
If I told you I was magic, would you ask me if I had a hat and cape...
or
would you take my word as facts cause I can see it written all over your face... that
you can see the world is tragedy
but that don't mean you gotta be afraid
Let me take you to a better place,
stressing never made it better but we can
be ready for the highs and lows (HEY!)
I'm just going with the flow and
honestly man ain't no telling how it goes (HEY!)
c'est la vie and nothing more
Don't let that screen time get in between you and me and our we time
Life is going forward never rewind baby relax cause...
