Winter Tree

Lover Man By Sucole & 6qsax

I like to have a good time (yeah)
Every night
It's my kryptonite (baby)
I'd like to write you a love song every day
From my heart and from my soul
Straight from the bloodstream
Straight from the bloodstream
I'm pulling you in like the tides
Into my dreams
Into my schemes

I only miss you
Once the scars have healed over
Absolved of all joy 
and all order
A thousand love songs
From my heart, from my soul
Straight from my bloodstream
Straight from my bloodstream
Straight from my bloodstream
I will drag you down
Into my dreams
Into my dreams
I'd write you a thousand love songs
I'd throw all them all away
But, this is the one that I saved...

Fallen Angel

In this times music is a healer. Jamie Rhind made this backingtrack and added his wonderful organ-sound. Vlad Olley the really fine blues guitarist and the brilliant sax-player Georg Boehme added their talent too.  Vlad also played his blues harp (left channel). Myself had the fun to add some blues harp sound on the right channel. Follow each of these fine musicians:

Dark One

Chorus 
Level one up—-rocking—-pure HipHop 
bars on lock——like a correctional facility——state penitentiary 
No exit no entry—-vibe with me——
Jam with me—-recklessly——
Ecstasy—rhapsody —————--good feelings are guarantee
let the spirit of the music set you free——
that’s the key———- X2 (Echo)

Track after track I hold it down
From NY to Cali to Chi-town
It's heat on the track not a meltdown
Jamming to the groove serious sound on sound
Nothing here but net ain't no rebounds
This is how we do it in the underground
I fuse with the beat and let it wrap around 
I let it rap around

Level One Up changing the whole game
It's time you take notice recognize the name
IPG1 is Lou one in the same
No tricks no gimmicks sky is the limit 
If it's HipHop I'm down and in it to win it
Sharp as a dagger can't fuck with the swagger
To get to this level you need more than a ladder

level one up is a state of mind 
It the spirit of music you can access anytime
it's the feeling that will totally set you free 
level one up is the music that flows through me

The game’s still the same I know that’s true
Still don’t know my name just call me Lou
Check out the domain it’s a real value
Shits off the chain I’ll just give you a clue
Level One Up to the fam I thank you
Lemme explain for a real quick review
Skilzzz I maintain evolved and grew
I spit high octane but you all knew
And I’m at it again cause it’s long overdue
I’ll rock you from Japan to Timbuktu 
----- That was Good!!......... 

Immer keep the beat rocking like a diamond---lets go
Ask me if I'll ever stop the answer's---- hell no
Coming through clear like I said ---crystal 
Let them take their best shot----it’s —— superficial
They can't come legit -- too-----artificial
———shit on lock like a---guided missile 
When I bless another track--It becomes official
—————it becomes official

emphasis on beat---- acknowledge that it's sweet
Potential that it hits the streets hard as concrete 
Original boss beat ——goes knee deep
keep you going all night_——ain’t no sleep
The vibe from the music--- makes you wanna move your feet
Ride it —-if you like it———Repeat when complete
———-repeat it when complete

LIE FOR YOU

If you tell me lies
I’ll follow you
If you tell me lies
I’ll like you too

If you spread the word
I’ll travel the land
If you call my name
I’ll give you a hand

You travel first class
I sleep on the street
When you drop your mask
I risk my life
And my family too.

If you tell me lies
I’ll follow you
If you tell me lies
I’ll like you too

When I’m standing back
I’m ready for you
When I’m standing by
I’m waiting for you

If you’re in my house
I’ll help you too
When you break the law
I’ll lie for you
 
If you tell me lies
I’ll follow through
If you tell me lies
I’ll fight for you

Lie To Me

Lie For You
