Lyrics:

     Verse 1
I will never get tired of making songs about you 
You the illest and the realest, not a chance I'll second guess or doubt ya
If we go through something we can teach each other how to - 
overcome the situation, I know we both down to, bound to bounce back
Solid as the sound proof foam in the studi walls, baby it's truly yours
Setting newer bars and there's zero reception when I spew these bars - 
so if it go to voicemail, it's probably because my duty calls
Not to get off the subject, but you're all that I need like a marketing budget
And Ima try cuz this my life and it's my destiny, partially proprietary -
sauce to my secret recipe, Love a crazy drug, but still they rather fuck w/ xtacy
It's been simple from the jump, that's why it's still perplexing me 
Keep it simple from the jump, how you keep your spirit up?
Yo, Love is a wonderful drug and it's definitely got the best of me 

     Hook 
You That I Need - Word to Mother indeed, like a water to a seed, 
sunlight for the green to grow
You That I Need - In my arms reach, just you and I, we can be alone 
You That I Need - It's just you that I need 

     Verse 2
I will never get tired of making love to ya
Physically, spiritually, mentally, I'm in love with ya
Better believe we connecting like bridges do 
A precious basket, let me put some eggs in you and build a chicken coup
If you get sick on me, make you chicken w/ no chicken soup
Living in this paradox but let me be your truth 
Want to prove to you that this world is truly beautiful 
There's way more to life than computer work in a cubicle 
You don't have to be usual to live out a dream 
When you find the inner peace, you tap into the pristine 
Love the back drop when it look asparagus green 
And if this track flop, I could care less what that mean
But still they wonder will he reach with the impact
And I don't know if that's, the purpose for me spitting -
over this track in the first place, just a taste of the glory, 
a piece of my story, wanted to let you know, you perfect and it's
You That I Need...

I dedicate this song to Hip-Hop, the love for the craft, yet it's also a tribute to my Goddess Queen

You That I Need

Highway Theme Song

LYRICS:

These polyphonix sounding raw, make my phonics optimal 
Sonically, I defy the impossible 
I am possibly pottin' up posted in the tropical
When you ballin at this level man it's more than optional
Not just bananas man it's platanos...
Costa keep it on lock like dreaded follicles
Vigilant and Skillosophical I am
Tryna see the picture clearer closer than a optical 
I know the plan like the back of my hand 
I got the map and everything stacked in the back of the van 
Ready for take off, who coming with? Im dapping the clan 
Got the Mic, my intuition ready to travel round half of the land, damn 

Listen Ima keep spitting, Ima keep dishing these words
Cause I was destined for this life to back it up with the verbs 
In case you didn’t catch that Ima back it up with the verbs
Like say less do and spit more verses reassure that’s for sure 
Guaranteed I won’t be round any herbs, unless they growin’ lush from under the dirt, yea
Let’s make this whole movement disperse, like a utopia, make a beautiful fusion of earth

I’m getting tubed in this work, like getting tubed in some surf 
So if you want ya seed to pop, come get a scoop of this fert (Short for Fertilizer)
I can show you the research, there is numerous perks
You can check with my connects they all attest cause we all stay true this turf
.....
.....
.....
But I’m Danny from La Costa, pack pruners in holsters
Make the most outta Miami Heat like Spoelstra
Coir from the coconut, microbial soak up 
Incorporate and administer thoroughly like I’m s’pposed ta
I’ve been a student of this life but I can coach ya 
A little bit about the earth and the culture
A little but about the dirt and the workflow 
Ain’t no time for leanin’ cuz we really strive to work for
separating all the facts from the folklore
The climate changin’ and we’re caught up in a Cold War 
The only way I really think we’ll pull it all off 
is if we come together, treat the planet like it’s home for
A big village united by 1 soul sword
and so far man I’m so charge ready to go for it 
Convertin’ energy free like it be solar, I’m so in 
Ima product of Fresco & Snowden, 
so I’m not with the ones who got plots to just use as another fool’s tool for controllin’
monopolies makin’ lots of cheese 
Last thing we need is Oligarchy please
Cause when they shoutin’ and they holding signs, they call police 
So what I’m tryna say is let’s figure out another way 
to be the change we want to see, nobody should be stallin’ peace
There’s many other beyond the streets 
to protest; like the way you spend ya cash flow how you stand for your beliefs
And is it every day? or is it every other week?
Because the path of greatness is path of patience 
on this path no cutting’ corners, gotta learn the steps, you cannot cheat 
And Ima tell em once again just to refresh their mind, 
I’m not a rapper shorty more like a vocalist-athlete 
And I’m not your ordinary phony story teller 
with a happily ever ending transcending into the galaxy….

Mothafucka peace!

Gone With The Sunset

Used To Love Her

The World is Mine. 
But I'm down to share - 
If you do it for the people and the earth care.

The World Is Mine

Lyrics:

True Story, 
11 o'clock I was bout to turn 21, I was young 
Bout to call a lil shorty, ask her out to have some fun 
and treat her like a gentleman, not to advocate a numb feeling 
but I was thinkin a little bit of rum
Besides the point, I was down for the unknown 
until my mother strolled thru the front door of our home, 

I've never seen like this ever before
I knew that something was wrong, before she even spoke 
She couldn't though..... 
Could see her drownin from inside, cryin like somebody died
but the truth is that I wouldn't know
Took her like ten minutes to say a word
and what she told me afterwards had me so disturbed
Just to calm my nerves, punched the wall, couldn't believe what I heard

My step pops was diagnosed with stage 4 
A brain tumor like what in the world? Need I say more?
Canceled everything, mom was cryin her face off
cuz those the kinda news that you just cannot shake off
This epidemic is a bitch when you live it sonny
cuz it's a beautiful world but conditions getting ugly 
Guaranteed nobody ready to see loved ones crumblin apart
It suffocates the soul when you sufferin at heart 
You don't know how it ends and you don't know how it starts 
with the process of redemption bringing light back to the darkness
At least that's what it felt like, I even went left field in hope to bring help right
They said months to a year, that produced a lot of fear,
made me want to volunteer put up a hell of a fight, listen 
My 2 cents felt like 10 cents, a dime a dozen 
Tryna have they backs, I aint had no time for frontin
but I can't lie, on my own time, I was cussin
throwin a fit feelin like I was blind to somethin
I know the cure is out there somewhere Ima find and touch it
Get a hold of it bring it back to make it shine and trust me 
That was my mindset all along
I put my music shyt on standby I no longer wanted to publish songs
especially when Moms got diagnosed as well 
The times got delicate as I've known em I had no time to cry or dwell
I told myself, "dawg this shyt aint even shyt compared to Ishmael Beah 
so tap in to your braver higher self,"
cuz all this pain that's bringin strain from just two people is unfortunate 
but not proportionate to the spectrum, can only imagine what the Messiah felt

WE NEED SOME LIFESTYLE CHANGES 
WE NEED STOP ACTIN LIKE SOME STRANGERS 
WE NEED TO LOOK AROUND AND IN THE MIRROR 
WE NEED TO STOP POINTIN FINGERS 
WE NEED TO DERAIL THE TRAIN FROM DANGER 
WE NEED TO STOP THE ANGER 
WE NEED TO STUDY THIS FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES
WE NEED A STOP TO ALL THESE COSTLY PAYMENTS 
WE NEED TO REDISTRIBUTE DIVIDENDS IN SERVICES THAT ACTUALLY AID US 
WE NEED TO STOP TAXING A HIATUS 
WE NEED TO BECOME ALTRUISTIC CIVIL INTEGRATORS 
WE NEED TO STOP THE HATERS 
WE NEED TO START MORE FAVORS FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH
BECAUSE IT'S WORTH THE WORK TO SAVE US 
WE NEED TO STOP PROMOTING THESE COMMODITIES AND FAKE MOTHERFUCKAS THAT BETRAY US 

WE NEED TO MAKE SOME CHANGES
WE NEED TO STOP ACTIN LIKE WE FAMOUS 
WE NEED TO RECONNECT AND DO SOME MAINTENANCE
WE NEED SOME REARRANGEMENTS 

That's just how life goes, man I know you know 
and I would say Rest In Peace, but I feel like you still alive
I bet it's a way jazzier place up on the other side 
Keep you close to my heart, I love you Mike 
This aint the end, just a new beginning 
I know you know I'm also still healin
Stickin to my spiritual blueprint you know I'm still buildin
a legacy of my own,
I had to chop this record it reminded me of you in your zone...

Before the Flood

Lyrics:

Shout out to the homie CJ3K
Whippin em 1 & em 2’s baby 
You are now in tune to that Costa Funk 
Get Down
Just know that with ya ups comes downs

Throw dem hands up, throw dem hands up
If you feeling like a playa or a gangsta 
Put ya mac down, put ya mac down 
If you feeling like a boss or a don homie
So come on throw it up
You know we showin up to show love 
Representing 3 o 5 Florida y’all 
Get Down 
but do no lose control
because too many feed their flesh and forget bout they soul   
Get Down 
But then you gotta get back up, that’s just a rule of thumb
Keep your medulla oblongata on the movement to come 
You gotta Do cuz you just gotta plus the movement is young
You gotta either Do it for ya self or do it cuz ya schoolin em 
Get Down 
and you can littly but really you gotta try to learn and earn
Get gritty wit it 
Get down 
and dirty with it for really to be acquainted yo you gotta
get gritty wit it 

That’s what I told myself when I felt I was knee deep 
with my street team handing out these CD’s 
realizing that rap is something you do 
Hip Hop is something you live 
We keep spraying graffiti on the walls of the wynwood district 
Makin art terrific, let’s be realistic, keep it altruistic
Key is stickin it close together post apocalyptic 
cuz Armageddon round the corner, paradise is glitchin 
We can see corruption in the eyes of politicians
But it ain’t a good time for bitchin 

The whole entire system been outdated way too long 
And I’ve been spreading myself thinner than some grey poupon 
I was about to say F it and just do my thang 
but the funny thing’s that my thang is to save you all 
Grace you with eloquence, mixed with benevolence,
Ima keep on shreddin it, rippin with adrenaline 
Shout out to my people who can feel it through the rhetoric
If I said it then I meant it, If I said it then I meant it yea
Get Down
and boogie wit it like Demarcus Cousins up in the paint, 
Get jiggy wit it 
Get Down
and boogie wit it like Demarcus Cousins up in the paint, 
Get jiggy wit it 

Allow me to reintroduce myself, my name is Cost-aaa
Allow me to reintroduce myself, my name is Cost-aaa

Not your average rap star
Still aint go em plaques or stamps in my passport 
Guarantee you somethin though, working smarter than ever
Fast forward a couple years I’ll be stacking the Mozzarela, for real
My lady, put that whole tab on my cash card
with no cheese, just chickpeas and zataar
From the jump just a chef with dreams of rap star
Started spicin up my life came fluid to rap bars, listen 
More cooperation, see no competition, when we in the kitchen, 
Betta believe we Get Down  
More cooperation, see no competition, when we in the kitchen, 
Betta believe we out here Gettin Down  

You know this life is full up and downs 

Just know that with ya ups, comes downs (3x)

Get Down

Wheres The Love feat. Lev n Costa

Verse 1

This one's for the Ladies & the Gentlemen up in the crowd, 
This aint for dem boys & girls
Check it listen, said this isnt for that noisy world
This is dat Costa sound, which is stoke with the passion pass it around, 
backed by real life experiences, 
We spit with funky grammar depicting how the experience is, 
painting these sacred pictures
So check the vibe on how we gettin like,
We gotta show appreciation for the simple things when livin this life, 
cuz nothin is for certain in a world full of serpents 
everybody got a purpose and the purpose is to figure it out, 
Even if it takes goin against the grain, 
They need to know that the glory came with portions of pain, 
My dreams are cordial, it's never been bout fortune or fame,
You got to know my story though before you storm on my name, 
It's dat farmer connoisseur germinating golden nuggets, 
Flowin heavy like dat mid summer Florida rain

Chorus

Workin on a future for us, a future that our future generations can trust
Middle finger to a short term bluff, Yea I'm in for the Long Run
These intangibles somethin they can't touch, 
Out to hold us down, yall already know wassup
Couple years down I'll be still showin up because I'm in for the Long Run
Down the line I do not want to feel like I'm livin my life just for myself, 
Oh no, it just aint the same doin it all Dolo, oh no (2x)

Verse 2

Ok, this one's for the ladies and the gentlemen keepin it real
Taking the talent, converting it into the skill
Not just gettin by, you thrivin, ready to build 
cuz if yall just chillin for da thrills repercussions homie
Keep your distance from suspicious homies 
who never workin on their dreams and their ideas cuz they wishin only,
that's just as bad as being rich and lonely, 
Rather make a difference put my bank in soil like my G Shigoaty, 
that's my brody satva no torch been passed, just some
tea and poetry, talkin story, you know the jazz
Sheddin light upon revelations, on how to to resuscitate the earth
you know we workin on some restorations
Every masterpiece requires meditation, 
dedication that'll lead to preparation, 
Learnin to embrace the moment that is right now,
It aint about me or what I'm yet to become  

Chorus

Workin on a future for us, a future that our future generations can trust
Middle finger to a short term bluff, Yea I'm in for the Long Run
These intangibles somethin they can't touch, 
Out to hold us down, yall already know wassup
Couple years down I'll be still showin up because I'm in for the Long Run
Down the line I do not want to feel like I'm livin my life just for myself, 
Oh no, it just aint the same doin it all Dolo, oh no (2x)
