Hinges

Lyrics:

I’m only stalling so you can stay
I heard you calling so I came your way
It just took me one flight but it felt like a day
Could you come closer? I’m cold and I’m grey
I’m too embarrassed to say when I feel the blues
But my mind is open for you to peruse
I’m too embarrassed to say I’m confused
But my mind is open, so come peruse

Peruse me like you got finals in an hour and I’m everything you need to know
Tonight, Imma show where to go to find all the things you should know about me 
I’ll tell you what they don’t know about me
And we made assumptions about our relationship
And I’m admitting this because I promised to be so transparent
You could look at me and see all of my weaknesses 
I’m an open book for your exuberance
I’ll do my stupid dance for your jubilance, uh 
I didn’t think you would give me a chance 
We ain’t rushing, but we're on the gas
Yeah we're on the gas, yuh yuh

I’m too embarrassed when I feel the blues
But my mind is open for you to peruse
I’m too embarrassed to say I’m confused
But my mind is open, so come peruse

Peruse

Benching

Lyrics:

Baby I’m tryna study you like for examination
I see your facial expressions
And I’m wondering if you know that
I know what you’re thinking; it’s hard to mention
I’m tryna know you like my mechanic knows my engine
And it’s been running since last week I saw you
And pretended not to cuz you looked too happy
And I couldn’t say I was too
What I didn’t know was you were drowning
In my silence and I’m sorry that I’m like this
I know I just need some guidance

So go easy on me baby
I was still a child
Didn’t get the chance to 
Feel the world around me
Had no time to choose
What I chose to do
So go easy on me

Easy On Me (afro cover)

Lyrics:

It was summer time
You’re a petal in the breeze
Never settle with the ease
You’re a special kind, 
Yeah we moved with intention
Till the wind changed direction
Stay with me, talk to me
Make me feel like I’m home again
Take my hands, hold them close 
Pray with me till we’re whole again

I was going to admit to you all these flaws
My imperfection is perfect, that’s my word
Broken from the beginning
I shouldn’t have pretended
Didn’t know we’d get this close from the start
They say this is who we are
Only see you from afar
She’s a comet to my star
Dimple in cheeks, she smiles like she’s a work of art
And we knew this from the start
My secrets are few, they revel in the darkness
Let’s throw a dart on an atlas
Make an occasion, fly across the ocean
Turn the world into our canvas 
I’ll be Picasso, and you, Frida Kahlo
Let’s turn our prayers into pictures 
Like water to wine in the pitchers
I’m down for this holy liquor with you
We missed the stars but we got the moon
Celestial energy in the room, 
Sacrificial enemies, I’m a goon
Intentional synergy, we’re in tune
Woah, I feel so opportune
You make me feel like the month of June
And I’m way better when I’m with you

It was summer time
You’re a petal in the breeze
Never settle with the ease
You’re a special kind, 
Yeah we moved with intention
Till the wind changed direction
Stay with me, talk to me
Make me feel like I’m home again
Take my hands, hold them close 
Pray with me till we’re whole again
Maybe you should know 
We’re not meant to be alone
Meant to be alone
I’m just a human souL
Stay with me, dine with me
Let us feel like we’re close again

Till We're Whole

Cover of Lionel Richie's Easy and Labrynth's Euphoria

I know it sounds crazy but I just can’t stand the pain
Girl, I’m leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me, girl, you know I done all I can
You see I begged, stole and I borrowed.
That’s why I’m easy
I’m easy like Sunday morning
That’s why I’m easy
I’m easy like Sunday morning

I’ll live forever.
I’ll live.

I just had a sip and I now I think I’ll live forever
That’s my crucible
I just learnt I’m not invincible
Before I knock your socks off
Put some lotion on those ankles
We’re euphoric though our lives might be in shambles
Oh baby come show me
Do you really think I’m worthy
Think I’m worthy
Sho ti gbo mi? (Yoruba: do you hear me?)
Only the divine can save me
They can save me

I’ll live forever.
I’ll live.
