WHERE I GO (FAST)

Proggish repetitions in roughly three parts.

Percussive discursive patternity of the third kind.

From Fear To Patternity (v1)

Are you inside the bubble, or outside causing trouble?

From circus and bread to Facebook instead.

Inside The Bubble

perfectly timed for when nobody can go out, a dance track for you delectation, with accompanying rant

They won’t be voting for the cause 
You’ll have to settle for applause
A charity sing-song day
Is your substitute for pay
The biggest thank-you yet
Is worth more than a safety net
They won’t be voting for the cause
You’ll have to settle for applause

They can grandstand and preen
Be robust as they please
But bravado won’t protect them
From this insolent disease

They measure worth and quality 
By the size of your salary
Behind the claps and bonhomie
Lie contempt and hypocrisy
As they smile and they pledge
Your left to wriggle on a knife’s edge
And as they lie and they blunder
Hold on tight to your silent thunder

Silent Thunder (this insolent disease)

Promise releases his new single Gara
Prod. by Ransom Beatz
Mix&Mastered by Komenz

Promise is back again better than ever following the buzz of his single ‘PROBLEM’ in March 2020 with his new single titled GARA. His career is now shooting off the roof as this is 3rd single in 2020 alone and we are in May. His last release Problem achieved 40,000 in just 2 weeks. 
Growing up in London African culture has always been part of Promises up bring especially Nigeria. A common story that he'd always here was that Nigeria’s financial issues are the cause of the government stealing the money for themselves. He uses Afrobeat in his music which is demonstrated in this single Gara. This inspired him all the way from London to write this song to make an impact on different communities. GARA is a term meaning yes. He speaks as the president of Nigeria, saying we should “We must correct the just in our legal system”. He uses the language Yoruba so that Nigerians can understand deeply what is being said and hopefully listen to make a positive impact in Nigeria government system. This is all being done from a studio in London which something good to speak about. Changing lives from great distances

So Far:

A gentle soft heart
Hidden in her hills
Her life deep lived
Lost in her dreams

She would sing long songs
She would tell those tales
She would right those wrongs
And dance through dales

She finds the sun, she finds the sun

Wherever she is, she will find the sun
Wherever she is, she will find the sun
We were so near, we were so far
We were this close, we were this clear

She would walk on hot coals
And take the holy ghost
She could breathe through souls
And fix buttonholes

And She would ask us
“where is love?”
And our eyes would dance
And our hearts would run

She finds the sun, she finds the sun

Wherever she is, we find the sun
Wherever she is, we find the sun
We were so near, we were so far
We were this close, we were this clear

So Far (a C÷M track)

Shivers down the spine 
The spine of the book
The book of the film
The film of the day
Day or night-time
Time to shine
Shine the light
Light the scene

Scene-set the place 
Place the order
Order the treat
Treat the cause
Cause the ruin
Ruin the play
Play the song
Sing the fear
Fear and isolation
Isolate the source
Source the space
Fear and isolation
Fear and isolation

Isolation

Ranty sax and the odd piano tinkle courtesy of Jonathan Ogara (https://soundcloud.com/allopenelectrics).

The lyrics goeth thusly:

Dogmatist insistence, compromise persistence
Poisonous necessities, extinction resistance
Merry Gerry-pandering, oblique meandering
Moments of clarity, hipsterous dexterity
Contraphobic sanity, Ponderous calamity
Peripheral profanity, Stat-packed insanity
Throwaway connectiveness, ultra-bright defectiveness
Nominated reprobate, virtuous advocate

Deceptive conformity, emotional deformity
Factual ambiguity, intellectual nudity 
Off the shelf pomposity, counterfeited prudity
Border-line depravity, empathetic cavity
Hand-wrung gesturing, half-baked posturing
Blame game moronity, stupefied stubbornity
Blinkered conformity, dubious patternity

They’re laughing at you 

Wall to wall stupidity, stupefied community
Working, working tirelessly, optimist futility 
Easy sell simplicity, smugnorant complicity
Manipulated ignorance, proudly flaunted bigot-trance 
Cheer the nicely spoken thief, Kick the gift horse in the teeth, 

They’re laughing at you, because you want it to be true

A Moment (Francis Gorgé & Axel Weiß)

Sometimes I just don't pick up on stuff.

Lyrics:
When I saw that fist coming at me
I knew they'd met the end of their hospitality
I'd become a professional dinner guest
Couch surfing pest
They said: Hey man, you've got to move on!
We've giving you ample opportunity 
To get your shit together
You've got to move on!
I hadn't a clue
I've got the oblivious blues

She wanted to try some new things in bed
I thought that meant do the same thing
But twice instead
Oblivious blues
It's what you do when you can't read the mood
Oblivious blues
I'm not reading the room right at all

The preacher say (hey boy!)
Were going to Baptize you for a second time
We've got to get that devil out
We can't tell if your just clueless
Or full of doubt

Oblivious blues
It's what you do when you can't read the room
Oblivious blues

When I see myself in the mirror I see my younger self
A dewy rock & roller
With baby fur
The cashier at the drugstore calls me sir
Oblivious blues
It's what you do when you can't read the room
Oblivious blues

I can't tell when to end this song...

Oblivious Blues
