[Verse 1]
Alright
Sunrise creepin', but my mind's still racing (Yeah)
Got this movie playin', different situations
Phone ain't ringing, sky ain't falling down (Uh-uh)
Still hear sirens screaming all over town
Oh, my head is spinning 'round

[Chorus]
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love

Tell me where you live
In the real world
Or the world in your head
Is it about reality
Or what might happen
Tell me who you love

Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love


[Verse 2]
Saw you smilin' 'cross the crowded floor (Last night)
My gut starts twistin', "What you smilin' for?"
Overthinkin' till my feet get sore (Uh-huh)
Buildin' up castles, lockin' every door
Yeah, always wanting something more... or less... I don't know

[Chorus]
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love

Tell me where you live
In the real world
Or the world in your head
Is it about reality
Or what might happen
Tell me who you love

Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love

[Bridge]
Aw damn, here it comes again, the spiral divin' down (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Feet glued to the floorboards, can't make a single sound
Heard it in the silence, a catastrophe brewin'
Is this premonition? Or just my own mind screwin'? (Hey!)
Aw damn, here it comes again, the spiral divin' down
Feet glued to the floorboards, can't make a single sound (Hey!)
Heard it in the silence, a catastrophe brewin'
Is this intuition? Or just my own undoing? (Hey!)

[Chorus]
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love

Tell me where you live
In the real world
Or the world in your head
Is it about reality
Or what might happen
Tell me who you love

Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love
Tell me who you love

[Outro]
Tell me where you live...
In the real world... or the world in your head?


Tell Me Who You Love

[Pre-Chorus]
You think I'm stunning, put your touch on me
Bet you can't stop dreaming 'bout it
They say I'm poison and I'm wrong for you
But you won't stop dreaming 'bout it

[Chorus]
You think I'm fire, put your touch on me!
Know you can't stop fiending for it!
They know I'm danger and I'm bad for you!
But you just keep obsessing 'bout it!

[Verse 1]
Why don't you give that talk a rest, yeah?
Claimed you wanted love, but you're just here for the chase, innit?
And I'm aching to be next in line
Hurt you once before, you just came back more possessed by mine
Nothing left I need to explain
That ain't been declared (It's you)
Don't need your apologies, nah
Just prove it to me instead

[Pre-Chorus]
You think I'm stunning, put your touch on me
Bet you can't stop dreaming 'bout it (Can't stop dreaming 'bout it)
They say I'm poison and I'm wrong for you
But you won't stop dreaming 'bout it (Won't stop thinking 'bout it!)

[Chorus]
You think I'm fire, put your touch on me!
Know you can't stop fiending for it!
They know I'm danger and I'm bad for you!
But you just keep obsessing 'bout it!

[Verse 1]
Why don't you give that talk a rest, yeah?
Claimed you wanted love, but you're just here for the chase, innit?
And I'm aching to be next in line
Hurt you once before, you just came back more possessed by mine
Nothing left I need to explain
That ain't been declared (It's you)
Don't need your apologies, nah
Just prove it to me instead

[Pre-Chorus]
You think I'm stunning, put your touch on me
Bet you can't stop dreaming 'bout it
They say I'm poison and I'm wrong for you
But you won't stop dreaming 'bout it

Chorus]
You think I'm fire, put your touch on me!
Know you can't stop fiending for it!
They know I'm danger and I'm bad for you!
But you just keep obsessing 'bout it!

[Bridge]
Think I'm fire, fi-fi—, touch on, tou-tou—, know you ca—
If you-if you, fire, fi-fi—
Think I'm fire, fi-fi—, touch on, tou-tou—, know you—
You think I'm fire, put your touch on me

[Instrumental Drop]
"Fire", 
"Touch on me"
"Danger"

[Outro]
(Think I'm fire, fi-fi—)
(Think I'm fire, fi-fi—) Touch on, touch on...
(Think I'm fire, fi-fi—) Danger...
(You think I'm fire, put your touch on me...)


Put Your Touch On Me

[Intro]
Alright, yo, for real though... (chuckles)
You know, so many girls be
Thinkin' my songs are about them
This should not get confused
This one's specific, you hear me?
Yeah, it was about this... this wonderful woman, from beautiful Europe.
Named Patricia. Yo, this is wild.
She was just the best woman I’d ever had, period.
Represented everything I loved, turned my whole life around.
Listen...

[Chorus]
Baby, you my everything, you just what I wanted
We could do it so big, bigger than you ever done it
You stay up on everything, other ones ain't never on it
I want this always, I swear I can spend whatever on it
'Cause she holds me down every time I hit her up
Once I get right, I promise that we gon' live it up
She had me beg for it 'til she give it up
And I say the same words every single time
I say, you the truly best (Ayy), you the really best (Ayy)
You the truly best (Ayy), you the honest best (Ayy)
You are the best I ever had (Ayy), purest best I ever had (Ayy)
Realest I ever had (Ayy), top one I ever had (Ayy)
I say, you the truly

[Verse 1]
Yo, lemme tell you 'bout this girl, no cap, no lie
From Europe, beautiful, caught my eye
Patricia, yeah, the name that just re-arranged my scene
Pulled me from the bottom, know exactly what I mean?
Was in a rut, for real, just coastin' through the days, man, lost
She turned my whole life around, whatever the cost
Made me feel complete, yeah, put the pieces in their place
Listen, I was black, she was white, yeah, a different race
I was older, she was younger, that's the truth, no disguise
But in our souls, our minds, we were perfectly synchronized, one vibe.

[Chorus]
Baby, you my everything, you just what I wanted
We could do it so big, bigger than you ever done it
You stay up on everything, other ones ain't never on it
I want this always, I swear I can spend whatever on it
'Cause she holds me down every time I hit her up
Once I get right, I promise that we gon' live it up
She had me beg for it 'til she give it up
And I say the same words every single time
I say, you the truly best (Ayy), you the really best (Ayy)
You the truly best (Ayy), you the honest best (Ayy)
You are the best I ever had (Ayy), purest best I ever had (Ayy)
Realest I ever had (Ayy), top one I ever had (Ayy)
I say, you the truly

[Verse 2]
She was everything I adored about her homeland, word is bond
That European spirit shinin', magic wand
The realest woman I encountered, period, no debate
Had me lookin' up, thankin' my fate
When I first met her, path unclear, vision was hazy
She was the compass I needed, left them other girls hazy
Planted seeds of hope, man, my spirit took flight
Overcame all the doubt, she helped me see the light
Yeah, we looked different on paper, a contrast you could see
But in our essence, our minds, we were one, just her and me.

[Chorus]
Baby, you my everything, you just what I wanted
We could do it so big, bigger than you ever done it
You stay up on everything, other ones ain't never on it
I want this always, I swear I can spend whatever on it
'Cause she holds me down every time I hit her up
Once I get right, I promise that we gon' live it up
She had me beg for it 'til she give it up
And I say the same words every single time
I say, you the truly best (Ayy), you the really best (Ayy)
You the truly best (Ayy), you the honest best (Ayy)
You are the best I ever had (Ayy), purest best I ever had (Ayy)
Realest I ever had (Ayy), top one I ever had (Ayy)
I say, you the truly best (Ayy), you the really best (Ayy)
You the truly best (Ayy), you the honest best (Ayy)
You are the best I ever had (Ayy), purest best I ever had (Ayy)
Realest I ever had (Ayy), top one I ever had (Ayy)

[Outro]
Ohh, ah yeah
See, this is the kinda joint you gotta dedicate to somebody
Just be sure they that special somebody
Patricia, this one's for you.
Yeah, you know just who you are.
I got you still.


You Are The Best

[Intro]
Is this the true end? Is this just travesty?
Caught by their landslide, no escape from their decree.
Open your eyes, the trolls you will see.
I'm just an honest boy, I need no puppetry.
Because I'm outspoken, come, outspoken, go, voices high, spirits low,
Any way the hate blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

[Verse 1]
Mama, just spoke the truth,
Made a post against their stand, a digital salute, now it's grand.
Mama, the fight had just begun,
But now I've gone and stirred it all this way.
Mama, ooh, didn't mean to make them cry,
If I'm not employed again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters.

[Verse 2]
Too late, my judgment's come,
Sends whispers down my spine, career's aching all the time.
Goodbye, Director, I've got to go,
Gotta leave the Beeb behind and face their show.
Mama, ooh (Any way the hate blows),
I don't wanna hide,
I sometimes wish I'd never been employed at all.

[Verse 3]
I see a little shadow of their plan,
Oxbridge man, Oxbridge man, will you uphold the ban?
Troll-posts and leaking, very, very freaking me.
(Reithian!) Reithian, (Reithian!) Reithian, Reithian Figaro – complicito! (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
But I'm just an autistic boy, nobody defends me.
He's just an honest boy, from a neuro-diverse family,
Spare him his voice from this hypocrisy!
Easy come, easy go, will you let me speak?
Bismillah! No, we will not let you speak!
(Let him speak!) Bismillah! We will not let you speak!
(Let him speak!) Bismillah! We will not let you speak!
(Let me speak!) Will not let you speak!
(Let me speak!) Will not let you speak!
(Never, never, never, never let me speak!) Ah!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
(Oh, Lord Reith, Lord Reith) Lord Reith, let me speak!
The establishment has a special hell put aside for me, for me, for me!
For speaking of genocide when I perceive it!

[Bridge]
So you think you can silence me and brand me with a lie?
So you think you can ‘other’ me and leave my career to die?
Oh, controllers, can't do this to me, controllers,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta their snare!
The media makes the Populist appear normal!
Just like in the thirties, in old Germany!

[Outro]
(Ooh, to stand for people)
(Ooh, yeah, love my neighbour, ooh, yeah)
Only truth now matters, anyone must see.
Only truth now matters...
Only truth now matters to me.
Any way the call blows... to fight back at any cost.


Reithian Rhapsody

[Intro]
You don't know this headspace, the tangles I was in
Therapy's the new script, where the real healing begins
You don't know how long it took, to finally feel alive
So negative thoughts, don't kill my vibe.

[Male Rap]
Yeah, I can feel the changes, the old thoughts start to fade
Uprootin' all that worry, the progress that I've made
You don't know how much I cleared, to let this new love thrive
So what, So what? Old patterns, don't kill my vibe.
My new love, don't kill my vibe.
My clear mind, don't kill my vibe.

[Verse 1]
Look inside of my mind now
And you can find peace where the storm used to reside
Look inside of your own thoughts, and you might find the lies that you hide.
I can feel the changes, I can feel a new way
Always knew this inner battle could lead me astray.
I can say that I like a challenge, and these old thoughts to me are now painless
You don't know what that pain is.
How can I paint this picture, when my lens was all blurry with you, boo?
Fell on my face in relationships, awoke with a heart true,
To patterns that bound me, like chains unseen, unheard,
Wore it on my sleeve, every bitter, twisted word.
I can admit, my reactions, they probably looked like yours,
Resentin' the good things, slammin' all the wrong doors.
Tell me your purpose is petty again? Nah, I'm buildin' somethin' real,
Even a small shift in thinkin', helps the whole damn soul heal.
Even a small change in action, helps this love feel so real.

[Bridge]
I can feel the changes,
I can feel these new feelings around me, it ain't about famous.
You can see that this therapy found me,
Put my thoughts on new stages, to me that's amazin'.
To my old self, that was a quick exit,
With all due respect, to that former me, let me say this…

[Chorus]
Lord forgive me, Lord forgive me
Lord forgive me, for thoughts I don't understand
Sometimes I need to be alone, with this clarity I own
I can feel your energy, if it's doubt from two planets away
Got my new tools, got my new music, this mental screenplay
I would share it but today I'm yellin'
Old thoughts, don't kill my vibe! My good vibes, don't kill my vibe!
Inner peace, don't kill my vibe! This real love, don't kill my vibe!

[Verse 2]
I'm trying to keep it alive, this connection, the feeling we love,
You're sometimes still tempted by drama, the push and the shove.
And I'm looking right past that, with this new lens I see,
We used to live in a world, on two different axes, you and me.
You lived in a world, viewin' love through a darkened glass pane,
I know what you scared of, the feeling of feelin' vulnerable, the potential for pain.
This shit is vital, I know you had to,
Adjust that focus, let the light stream through, me and you, this is brand new.
To die in a cycle of blame, tell me a past hurt, a familiar refrain,
Is way more predictable, give me a feasible gain,
Rather a seasonal love, I'll let our actions explain,
This is something we build, you can let go of the strain.
No more stuck in a box, where insecurities stalk,
I'mma break out with new actions, and then hide every lock.
Yeah, new actions forge the key, and I'm hidin' every lock.

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Outro]
My mind, don't kill its vibe!
You ain't seen growth like this in a long time.
Don't you see this clear line?
Between the then and the now, like the first and the fifteenth.
New thoughts in the air, I can see we are in sync.
Hide your old feelings, hide your old patterns…
Nah, what you better do, is embrace this, me and you.
I'll take your true heart, and put that love on a pedestal too.
My mind, don't kill its vibe! Our love, don't kill its vibe!
Walk out the door and they scream "It's alive!"
My mind's resolution, stop all the pollution,
Talkin' that healing, I got my new views, I got my new music.
I say, my thoughts, don't kill my vibe! This clear path, don't kill my vibe!
This love we buildin', don't kill its vibe! My peace, don't kill my vibe!

Fantasy (Dance Version)

[Verse 1]
They left no time to forget
Kept their narrative set
With their same old tired threat
But I hold my head so high
And my spirit dry
Gonna rise, not gonna buy
You went back to what they knew
So far removed
From all that we've been through
And I walk a righteous track
My future's stacked
I'll go back to Black

[Chorus]
They only silence truth with words
Our history’s unheard
They push their views, absurd
And I go back to
I go back to truth
Black, Black, Black, Black

[Verse 2]
I love my soul
It's in control
You love lies and they take their toll
And this life
Is like a fight
And I'm a blazing fire burning ever so bright, yeah!

[Chorus]
They only silence truth with words
Our history’s unheard
They push their views, absurd
And I go back to
They only silence truth with words
Our history’s unheard
They push their views, absurd
And I go back to

[Bridge]
Black, strong, Black, bold
Black, truth, Black, told
Black, free, Black, soul!
I go back to
I go back to!

[Chorus]
They only silence truth with words (Truth with words!)
Our history’s unheard (So unheard!)
They push their views, absurd (Absurd!)
And I go back to
They only silence truth with words (Oh-oh-oh!)
Our history’s unheard (Yeah!)
They push their views, absurd
And I go back to Black!

Black

[ Verse 1]
Yo, right now, I need her, can't meet her nowhere now
Cuffs up soon, they'll see me, they'll get me, take care now
Too late now, can't be cool, I miss her, can't come near now
The cell's mine soon, gotta face it, I'll hold out, but how?
I need her right now, once they jail me, I'm done out
If they get me, I'm surely breaking down

[Pre-Chorus]
The sirens gettin' louder, the choices gettin' stark Called the shot, big talker, now I'm lost in the dark

[Chorus]
And, oh, it's hard to face this, 
but I wish she was right here 
Oh, it's hard to leave her, 
when my past haunts me everywhere 
All this time I'm thinking, 
I was man enough to swing it 
Oh, yeah, I do need her, and I miss her, can't come near!

[Verse 2]
Well, it's grave to say now 
You can tell I miss her the most 
They'll lock me away now 
It'll make it harder, I know... 
If this life was right, or If I shoulda done that at all 
Man, I don't know, either way 
All I know is that I've been movin' wrong 
There's a lot on my mind 
Been actin' hella crazy 
Knew how to push that rival 'til he went insane 
So, we probably shouldn't do this, but the deed is done, stupid 
And I know when I'm not with her 
Then I truly miss her, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
And, oh, it's hard to face this, but I wish she was right here 
Oh, it's hard to leave her, when my past haunts me everywhere 
All this time I'm thinking, I was man enough to swing it 
Oh, yeah, I do need her, and I miss her, can't come near!

[Bridge]
I wanna say that I'm sorry, at the end of my life 
Won't wake in her morning, nothing's gonna be alright 
At the end of this story, no one's holdin' me tight 
Man, I gotta worry, I'm losing my mind! 
Flashing lights... cold nights... just wanna hold her...

[Chorus]
And, oh, it's hard to face this, but I wish she was right here (Losing my mind!) 
Oh, it's hard to leave her, when my past haunts me everywhere (All the time!) 
All this time I'm thinking, I was man enough to swing it 
Oh, yeah, I do need her, and I miss her, can't come near!
