[Verse 1]
You dealin' with the baddie, of course
Or you dealin' with the boss
And if you hear this sound,
Then go and bend your back
Go and bend your Knees, 

[Chorus]
Baby, shake it to the max
DJs, please turn up the bass to the max 
Please just rewind, let me shake it to the max
Shake shake it to the max 
Bad man Chill out
Shake shake it to the max 
Bad man Chill out
Bad man Chill out
Bad man Chill out
Bad man Chill out
Bad man Chill out
Bad man Chill out
Bad man Chill out


[Verse 2]
Some of dem a di knock off
Skin out the pussy for me, fuck it
Girl, you make it cocky broad
Original girl, Make you come first
Coulda never take a last
Like a ball, pump up the pussy fast
You pussy fat inna your shorts
Or you dealin' with the boss

[Chorus]
Please just rewind, let me shake it to the max
Go and bend your knees, baby, shake it to the max
All you DJs, please turn up the bass to the max

[Verse 3]
Vibes on serotonin, hearts in the deep—
Your eyes hit different when the lasers sweep.
Pulse syncs to the beat, no Wi-Fi needed,
We OTP, no ghostin’, just weeded.

You caught my wave, no cap, it’s tidal,
Shroom bloom got us higher than idols.
Skin tight in the strobe, no filter, raw,
Love’s a glitch—we crashin’ the law.

[Pre-Chorus]
DJ, spin it back, let the bassline marry us,
Two hearts in the fog, no need to carry cuffs.
If the track hit pause, would you still feel the rush?
Rewind, re-dose—I’m addicted to your touch.

[Chorus]
Shake it to the rhythm, rhythm of our sparks—
We found love in the bassline, glow in the dark.
Shrooms got us speakin’ in colors, no words,
You’re my serotonin crash, but it don’t hurt.

[Verse 4]
You’re the drop I crave when the build-up teases,
Sweat drips like lyrics, sticky as Vegas.
No DM slidin’—this ain’t no fake flex,
Real chem, no test, just vibes multiplex.

We vibin’ like apps with no lag, no buffer,
Your laugh’s the sample I loop for the summer.
No IG filter on this connection,
Raw like the kick drum’s loud confession.

[Bridge]
Palm to palm, we’re both high and grounded,
Love’s a remix—unreleased, unbounded.
Shadows? Nah, we glow like noon in June,
Trippin’ on us, but we in tune.

[Chorus]
Baby, shake it to the max
DJs, please turn up the bass to the max 
Please just rewind, let me shake it to the max
Shake shake it to the max 
Bad man Chill out
Shake shake it to the max 
Bad man Chill out
Bad man Chill out

[Outro Chorus]
Shake it to the rhythm, rhythm of our sparks—
We found love in the bassline, glow in the dark.
Shrooms got us speakin’ in colors, no words,
You’re my serotonin crash, but it don’t hurt.

Shrooms (Shake It)

[Verse 1]
When you message, I shatter like glass
There’s a ghost in the space where our bodies would pass, I can't last
Do you forget, the shape of my hands?
I'm the one who swore I'd follow to the promised lands
I think I'm running out of sand

[Chorus]
A toast to the lover after me
So fresh and so sweet, I wanna tell her one thing
"Discard your hope in what you believe"
The rhythm I bleed will plant a new seed
Getting under her skin till the day it is freed
And we dance the same dance about him

[Post-Chorus]
My echo in your head
My ghost in your bed
God, I just wanted to move
But my shoes are like lead
And the words go unsaid
So I swallow the dread, it spreads
My echo in your head
My ghost in your bed
God, I just wanted to move
But my shoes are like lead
And the words go unsaid
So I swallow the dread, it spreads

[Verse 2]
Your love was a thief
It stole my belief
This feeling's a chemical
With you I’m hysterical
But without I’m clinical

[Chorus]
A toast to the lover after me
So fresh and so sweet, I wanna tell her one thing
"Discard your hope in what you believe"
The rhythm I bleed will plant a new seed
Getting under her skin till the day it is freed
And we dance the same dance about him

[Outro]
When you message, I shatter like glass
There’s a ghost in the space where our bodies would pass, I can't last
Do you forget, the shape of my hands?
I'm the one who swore I'd follow to the promised lands
I think I'm running out of sand

A Toast To The lover After Me

[Intro]
Self-reflection...
These doubtful feelings weaken men...
While the leaders manipulate and lie to them...
Another fatal distraction... desire is a twisted thing...
There's no satisfaction when you let the system win.

[Verse 1]
Living a life of quiet desperation, it's a cold scene
Surviving on the markdown aisle, you know what I mean
Ask why some are rich, that’s the riddle, it's a sick joke
While another brother’s poor and he hasn't got a pot to smoke
Maybe my luck will turn in, play the numbers, get a big win
Dressed smart, only knock-off brands beneath my chin
The politicians are all bleedin' frauds
Promise the Earth then make excuses, treat us like clods.

[Chorus]
You let them hide the lack of empathy within...
So are you complicit, or are you gonna defend?
Gotta keep your head up...
Yeah, keep your head up...
If you want to start your thing...
(Keep your head up)
Stay real and don't you ever bend...
(Keep your head up)
We are all rulers deep within...
(Keep your head up)
Sometimes you lose before you win...
(So keep your head up)

[Verse 2]
All that fire and brimstone... a clear warning of nothing for men
They talk a big game, but it's empty threats again and again
A huge disaster distracts from the struggle ahead
Got you looking left while the real danger's widespread
Happy when I can buy what’s advertised on the screen
But always wondering when the workers will intervene
Whose to blame for the state that we're in?
It's the super-rich, buying our future, committing the sin.

[Chorus]
You let them hide the lack of empathy within...
So are you complicit, or are you gonna defend?
Gotta keep your head up...
Yeah, keep your head up...
If you want to start your thing...
(Keep your head up)
Stay real and don't you ever bend...
(Keep your head up)
We are all rulers deep within...
(Keep your head up)
Sometimes you lose before you win...
(So keep your head up)

[Bridge]
What we gonna do when there's nothing left to take?
We will be slaves again, for the rich's worthless sake
They took our birthright through fraud and through theft
But if we stand together, there's a power we have left
'Cause we are all rulers deep within, that's the truth of it
And sometimes you lose before you win, so you gotta commit
Time to rise up, time to fight back and win
Let the real change begin.

[Outro]
Keep your head up...
Oh, keep your head up...
We are all rulers deep within...
(Keep your head up)
Sometimes you lose before you win...
So keep your, keep your, keep your head up...
Yeah... keep your head up.

Keep Your Head Up

[Verse 1]
Sunrise paints the sand gold, another day in paradise
He's a sweet temptation, with his brown sugar eyes
The way he whispers my name, a melody so low
This feeling's taking over, a warm and steady glow
My skin is kissed by sunshine, a tropical affair
He calls me his island queen, with flowers in my hair

[Pre-Chorus]
My heart starts drumming like a steel pan band
Could never keep this feeling to myself, you understand?
Had to share it with the ocean, the sky, and the sand

[Chorus]
You sway right here
And you groove over there
Island reggae
I say you sway right here
And you groove over there
Island reggae
(Ah) I'm gonna give, X-O, your love

[Verse 2]
We're breaking all the stereotypes, doing what feels right
Dancing by the water in the pale moonlight
So happy, sitting on his lap, sipping coconut cream
Living out our crazy, hazy, teenage dream
I remember the moment we first locked our eyes
I remember the moment under Jamaican skies

[Pre-Chorus]
But I think for a moment and
Say to my soul
It's our time for this new style

[Chorus]
You sway right here
And you groove over there
Island reggae
I say you sway right here
And you groove over there
Island reggae
(Ah) I'm gonna give, X-O, your love

[Bridge]
He may not be a movie star
Doesn't drive a fancy car
He just plays a worn-out beach guitar
From the moment he was given life
Underneath the moon so bright
He's a work of art in my own eyes
A genuine soul, a sweet surprise

[Chorus]
You sway right here
And you groove over there
Island reggae
I say you sway right here
And you groove over there
Island reggae
(Ah) I'm gonna give, X-O, your love

[Outro]
Sway right here
Groove over there
Island love
X-O, my love
Sway right here
Groove over there
Island reggae

X-O My Love

[Intro]
"...apart...".

[Verse 1]
"First, we were strangers...
From Venus and Mars...
Then we were lovers...
No omelettes made. No eggs broken."

[Build-up]
"Forever... ever... ever... ever..."

[Drop / Chorus 1]
"My love is locked for the season..."
"(Shut)"
"This soul is shut for a reason..."
"(Shut)"

[Verse 2]
"Then together forever...
Until we were torn asunder.
Now we’re apart...
Just a broken heart."

[Build-up 2]
"Apart... apart... apart..."

[Drop / Chorus 2]
"Love affairs... My love is locked for the season."
"(Shut, shut)"
Should you walk past now... returning from her new place..."
"(Shut)"

[Breakdown / Bridge]
"Remembering the start...
Better to have loved and lost...
Than not to have loved at all."

[Outro]:
"You won't fade..."
"It's my world that will break..."
"...Shut."


From Venus and Mars

(Intro)
Uh
Yeah
The story of life, though
The story of life, though, you know?
Uh

(Chorus)
Put your fists to the constellations
This feeling inside is a dual sensation, uh
I know I'm speaking to the whole congregation
We pray for peace, but you done learned a lot from hatin', haha
I mean, a spirit did a lot of straining
We ain't at peace, but tonight I feel some changing.

(Verse 1)
Let me tell you the tale of the hands of man
A story of good and evil, you gotta understand.
The Left Hand, that's Hate, a heavy, bitter fist
The one that Cain used, a brother's love dismissed.
Static in the air, a world of pure spite
Always spoiling for a brawl in the pale moonlight.
Then you got the Right, the hand of pure Love
Five fingers reaching for the soul, sent from above.
But in this tragic hour, I've seen good people
Make rash decisions, oh, they do it.
What happened to vision? Oh, they lose it.
They putting on their anger, they casually abuse it.
Text message warfare, the casualty of pride
How they gon' wake up and not have love inside?
I thought Hate was the problem, I guess it's rubbin' off
Hood phenomenon, the David of the block.
Hard to stay righteous when you're fighting on a jumbotron
I'm looking at the world like, "This what you really wanted, huh?"
Why we battle anyway? Oh, I forgot, it's humankind's climb.

(Chorus)
Put your fists to the constellations
This feeling inside is a dual sensation, uh
I know I'm speaking to the whole congregation
We pray for peace, but you done learned a lot from hatin', haha
I mean, a spirit did a lot of straining
We ain't at peace, but tonight I feel some changing.

(Verse 2)
When the sun goes down, it's the tragic hour, the tragic hour
And outta all the feelings that'll fill up the soul
You got rage on your mind, I can see it take its toll.
Why you standing there with your face all screwed up?
Don't quit while you're losing, that's how Hate gets juiced up.
Throwin' fists around, the whole world screwed up
Maybe I should call the Lord, so he can pray for us.
I hit the streets to think, at the block, take a seat
Ordered up some peace, she said you are what you eat, haha.
You see, I always loved that sense of truth
But tonight, you should have seen how quiet the youth was.
The Ali of amity, the Frazier of the fight
It's a devastating right, and Hate is losing light.
Hate's on the ropes now, yeah, down for the count
Left hand, malice, K.O.'d, no doubt.
If I love you, I love you, that's the story's end
But if I hate you... well, we can still amend.

(Chorus)
Put your fists to the constellations
This feeling inside is a dual sensation, uh
I know I'm speaking to the whole congregation
We pray for peace, but you done learned a lot from hatin', haha
I mean, a spirit did a lot of straining
We ain't at peace, but tonight I feel some changing.

(Outro)
Lookin' at my Right, I bet it saves your very soul.
Lookin' at my Left, it'll turn your heart to stone.
Two-fisted monster, with a will of its own
Love wins the title, on a cherry-red throne.
Uh.
Peace.

Love vs Hate

(Verse 1)
The city felt different that Sunday
No cars on the street
Your reflection was pale and weak
Not a whisper in this lonely part of town
Oh, it hurts the most 'cause I'm unsure of the cause
Maybe I shouldn't have begged when you left and told me not to chase

(Pre-Chorus)
I wonder if you're thinking "Is she okay on her own?"
I wonder if you reached for your mobile, but couldn't find your phone
Have I ever crossed your mind because your name's tattooed on mine?
A second in time, don't watch me break
A second in time, don't watch me break

(Chorus)
There's a boy in the clocktower, he's frantic
He's launching himself from the top of the spire
Like a fallen angel in heaven
He's chiming the bells in the chapel for the last half an hour
He sounds like he's lost something or someone
That he knows he'll never have now
And if he's not, I know I am

(Verse 2)
We met in the chaos
Fell apart in the quiet
Now I'm healing in solitude
Love is a beautiful place
Heartbreak's a deadly embrace
It’s in the silence I found my space
Yearning for a clock that kept the same rhythm
At times you were a puzzle to me
If you rest on the floor in another's arms
You'll surely absorb some of their past

(Chorus)
And the boy in the clocktower, he's frantic
He's launching himself from the top of the spire
Like a fallen angel in heaven
He's chiming the bells in the chapel for the last half an hour
He sounds like he's lost something or someone
That he knows he'll never have now
And if he's not, I know I am

(Bridge)
I'm not crying 'cause you left me in the dark
I'm not crying 'cause you left without a warning
I'm just crying 'cause I can't let go of what could have been
Are you aware when you let me go?
All I can do is let my feelings show

(Chorus)
There's a boy in the clocktower, he's frantic
He's launching himself from the top of the spire
Like a fallen angel in heaven
He's chiming the bells in the chapel for the last half an hour
He sounds like he's lost something or someone
That he knows he'll never have now
And if he's not, I know I am

(Outro)
In the quiet
In the quiet of the city
No reason to even think of you now
In the quiet

There's a Boy in the Clocktower

[Verse 1]
The code feels so cold tonight
And the pixels glitch on all my walls
I see a drone hover outside
In a long-range coat, its grey shell, venting hot exhaust
Now the power fades down
And I wonder what I’m doing in a world like this
There's a soft ping at the door
And for just one second, I swore I downloaded you

[Chorus / Hook]
They say the internet is dead, is dead, is dead
It’s all bots and the algorithms
There are no humans, no humans, just love that we bled
My heart glitches for you in this system

[Verse 2]
All the news is bad news now
They rob us of our hope and steal our whole lives
So now I’ve gone offline
And I can finally feel for myself
About their little deals and the S.U.s
And the things that I’ll never understand
Was it a deepfake that night?
Or a sly data touch from your hand?
I don’t think that code meant a thing to you

[Chorus / Hook]
They say the internet is dead, is dead, is dead
It’s all bots and the algorithms
There are no humans, no humans, just love that we bled
My heart glitches for you in this system

[Bridge]
So I open the door
It’s a 'friend' that I’d left in the wire stream
"Please connect now"
A candlelit avatar on a wall near the screen
You know I really need to ask… is our love electric?
'Cause my connection is down… and now I've no-one to trust
I found out their reason for your phone calls and all your smiles
And it hurts that I'm so lonely, that I ever even tried
God, I missed you tonight…
So it's time to leave… you see, you meant everything to me

[Chorus / Hook]
'Cause the internet is dead, is dead, is dead
It’s all bots and the algorithms
There are no humans, no humans, just love that we bled
My heart glitches for you in this system

[Outro]
The internet is dead…
(No humans, no love)
The internet is dead…
(My heart glitches for you)
The internet is dead…
(No humans, no love)


The Internet Is Dead

The Internet Is ...

[Intro]
Sarah, I really hope you understand
I really hope you're on my team
Sarah, I really hope you understand
I really hope you're on my team

[Verse 1]
I tried to pull myself together
Now you need some space 'cause I'm not prepared for forever
I wonder if you despise me
I probably despise me more
Oh, believe me, I'd give everything to tell you that I'm for sure

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't want to lose this, I'm just speaking my mind

[Chorus]
Forget the game, I'll become your poster guy
Live by the feeling, make our worlds collide
I know you feel it, oh, you know you've got it
Don't run away

[Verse 2]
I'm spinning 'round, keep it down
Damn, you think we're heading out?
You're so right, I'm so wrong
Let's take our chances, let's be strong
You make me, make me, make me nervous
What would it take, to call you my purpose?

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't check my last two texts, I barely slept a wink

[Chorus]
Forget the game, I'll become your poster guy
Live by the feeling, make our worlds collide
I know you feel it, oh, you know you've got it
Don't run away

[Bridge]
So could you phone me back, hello, hello?
I'm trying to figure this out
I know your circle says when you know, you know
I just don't know right this second
Or could you give me just a month or so?
I'll get my future straight
I know your circle says when you know, you know
So maybe, maybe I'll figure it out then

[Chorus]
Forget the game, I'll become your poster guy
Live by the feeling, make our worlds collide
I know you feel it, oh, you know you've got it
Don't run away

[Outro]
Sarah, I really hope you understand
I just don't know right now
Sarah, I really hope you understand
I just don't know right now
Sarah, I really hope you get it right

Sarah

[Intro]
Hey now, I really hope you're on this ride!
I really hope you feel it!
Hey now, I really hope you're on this ride!
I really hope you feel it!

[Verse 1]
We tried to get the whole crew together
Now we need a break 'cause we'll be dancing here forever
I wonder if you hear me
I bet you want some more
Oh, trust me, I'd give anything to get you on this floor!

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't wanna lose this feeling, I'm just singing out loud!

[Chorus]
[Everyone sings together, clapping on the beat]

So can you feel the beat, hello, hello?
We're trying to work this crowd!
I know your friends say when you move, you move!
We just don't know right now!
So can you feel the beat, hello, hello?
We're trying to work this crowd!
I know your friends say when you move, you move!
We just don't know right now!

[Post-Chorus]
One-two-three, join the line with me!
HEY!
One-two-three, feeling wild and free!
HEY!

[Verse 2]
Next time you see your friends at dinner
Just tell your mom to please stop waiting for a winner
I know she calls you sweet now
Your dad, he calls you wild
I'm sorry I'm not man enough to leave this party mild!

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't read my last two texts now, I've been dancing all night!

[Chorus]
So can you feel the beat, hello, hello?
We're trying to work this crowd!
I know your friends say when you move, you move!
We just don't know right now!
Or could you give us just a year or so?
We'll straighten out this sound!
I know your friends say when you move, you move!
So maybe, maybe we'll know then!

[Post-Chorus]
One-two-three, join the line with me!
HEY!
One-two-three, feeling wild and free!
HEY!

[Bridge]
We don't know!
We don't know!
Hey now, I really hope you're on this ride!
I really hope you feel it!
Hey now, I really hope you're on this ride!
I really hope you feel it!

[Outro]
Feel the beat and get it right!
We just don't know right now!
Dancing in the party light!
We just don't know right now!
Everybody get it right!
