On the 8th of July Codewalkers are back with a new single ‘Preternatural’. Coupling their unique, upbeat fusion of genres with vocalist Seun Babatola’s trademark probing lyrics, ‘Preternatural’ explores themes of choice and sacrifice, asking how far are we willing to go to get what we want and what are we willing to give up in return.

Silver high snorting like it’s rock and stains
Golden hands sticky from the blooded rain. 
Platinum are the rings that bind
Glittering wealth? I’m a leave behind
All the weight threatening - to drown
Everything blocking out - the sound
All of it stressing me, keeping me down
If I’m gonna reach the sky keep my feet on the ground.
Keep it subterranean, GTA-4
Gangsta Albanians, crashing through door.
Stereotypical, everybody judging, 
life is illegal, ain’t nobody budging
Fixing all the rules, like your life is supernatural
Treating us like fools, its on the actual
Facts are alternative, bloodline preservative,
Far right, far left, centrists are purgative.

If you’re wanting to grow, leave the hate that you know,
E ma pu ro the truth, jeje asoro O.
When a be time to let go, better the devil you know, better the devil you know.

Too hungry, dangerous, I
Drink moonlight envious, my
Skin reeks of earth and sweat,
and If the full moon hits I’m gonna lose my bet
I’m lose my mind, and if you ever find me,
Howling you better run and hide see,
Instincts from rage and shame,
Bronze eyes glowing in the sunlight flame.
I’m living this life like a virtual game
And if you see me glitching, glitching, shame
Call me the utopian, deadlier than plutonium,
Quick with all that boasting coming out urianium
Stay in your aquarium, live in your vivarium, 
So cold-blooded i embody a solarium
Joking, my cranium is bigger than a studium
Ego so much bigger than the living planetarium.

If you’re wanting to grow, leave the hate that you know,
E ma pu ro the truth, jeje asoro O.
When a be time to let go, better the devil you know, better the devil you know.

Like a wendigo, we running through the snow,
Carnivorous we feeding chivalry with glow
Should a listened close, should a never made the deal, but
Better the devil you know

I’m reeling my fate is sealing,
Golden handcuffs from the pain that Im dealing
Never one to be tied to the truth, now

Take it to the end, take consequences.
Crypto inscripting soul bound sequences
Playing games at the crossroad pyre
better the devil you know,

So I’m stealing the seconds i got left,
Failed my family so they won’t be bereft
Guitar in my hand as I’m facing the fire
better the devil you know.
