Third Stone Parties

Musical Chairs (ft. Gift Of Gab(e)) [Prod. by Yumo]

"Sleep Is A Burden" is about staying up from moonlight to sunrise and braving the dark in between. The night is where people lose their faith in the light most often. It's the time when our thoughts become most introspective and dangerous, taking us to places we avoid at all costs through drugs, sex, and other superficial escapes to help us sleep through life. 

As an introvert and a night owl, Kai.oti thrives the most in the latest hours and even after a turbulent year losing loved ones and working through shortcomings, he has continued to grow, as we naturally do in the night. We feel most alone in the dark, but that's when our connection to God and the godliness inside us is strongest. It's also the time when our connection to each other can guide us through the dark so that we reach the daylight together. All you have to do is stay woke. #SleepIsABurden

Lyrics: 
Lovebugs and nighthawks
Lipstick prints and bite marks
Ain't so easy to wipe off
Got my eye on you, cyclops

My fault, yeah
Left me alone with my thoughts
My fault, yeah
Let ‘em get lost
Never get lost again

Kai.oti
7pm, city lit like my headlights
Got a drink to her lips like its midnight
Pop a molly and now she can't sit right
Now she riding off hype, feeling that high
Join the glow and relax with the cool guys
While we smoke and we listen to Poolside
Ask em, why you so afraid to think deeper? Aye
Why you so afraid to think deeper?
Why you looking at me like a motherfucking preacher?
You know I'm too flawed to be anybody's keeper
They taught you to hide behind they best face
And mark the realest version of you off with red tape
In here, there is no better dream, high on life, it’s like amphetamines
Mix it with the lean, now I'm stronger than she ever seen
Ain't no in betweens, got her sweating out the kerosene
Beat it like it stole something from me, that’s a guarantee
Watching from the mezzanine, looking like they a part of the action
Sex show craze, running the party, what's happenin'
Flow is so orgasmic, Leather voice blues got her spazzin' 
That's a real reaction
Hurts you in your soul a little, don't it?
Grinding day and night while all your peers on melatonin
Mythical at heart, I swear I'll catch your eye like Odin
I'm the brightest butterfly in the kaleidoscope, you know it
Psychedelic weapons loaded
Fuck time, I been on one
4am, getting blowed, and now we gone, son
Still looking at me like she know I want some
Different breed, she wanna know just where I come from
She don't know just what I been through though
Through pencil strokes, cause the pen too slow, I erase too much
Yeah they want you doing good, getting better within
Never better than them, did I say too much?
Yeah, I stay too clutch, I mean why not? Can’t stray from the glow
I'm just trying to live my life, I mean why stop? Outer space getting close
They left me alone with my thoughts
My fault, yeah, yeah
They left me alone with my thoughts
My fault, yeah, yeah

Lovebugs and nighthawks
Lipstick prints and bite marks
Ain't so easy to wipe off
Got my eye on, you cyclops

My fault, yeah
Left me alone with my thoughts
My fault, yeah
Let ‘em get lost
Never get lost again

POPPIES II [Prod. by Tek.Lun]

Lyrics: 


Tell me is you down for the cause
True banditos put it down for the frauds, aye
Said she always down with the squad
True femme fatale stealing fire from the gods, aye
Reservoir dogs, getting ours
Lend me them ears, Mr. Blonde now in charge, aye
Uncle Sam telling us the odds
We disturbing the peace, blowing L’s to the stars
Get it


I might free myself today, ooh yeah
Free myself today, ooh yes

They might freeze themselves to death, ooh yeah
Freeze themselves to death, ooh yes

Killing that vibe, you end up like the Joneses
Get your brain fried and chill you to the bone

Getting so high, we living in the moment
Came here to shine, can’t do that shit alone

Major with the crimes, they getting with the program
I’mma do mines, I’m getting in my zone

Wizard of Oz, it’s green when we show them
You sleeping in the poppies, now the shit's gone


Little bit of laughs for them late night Kimmels
Little bit of horror with them late night giggles
Know it's little shop of horror in them crowded hospitals
For them snakes in the grass that be turning Tom Riddle
Fuck civil, know the party staying lit like a zippo, ooh
Tried to snuff me out and now it's quid pro
Start a panic in this motherfucking disco
Cause ya'll know I been offa my rocker from get-go
Shit show, sit close, let me break it down for ya
Roll it up, puff it, now you clairvoyant, aye
Please don’t start with the paranoia, ooo
Vaudeville shit, that’s a clear voyage, ooo
On some real shit, ain’t got time for ya, yup yup
Old school hustle on that Tom Sawyer, yup yup
Freedom fighter got another bomb for ya, Neo with the law and order
Ain’t gon drop a dime on ya
Fuck her in the mirror like she sipping on that Redrum
Bedlam
Thin with the skin, better shed some
You know thats is the end of ya
Keep on pretending ya living in cinemas
Put some revenge in my thrillers, ya killin' them
Gods, ladies, and gentleman
I'm cold as hell
Vaudeville special on that show and tell
Fat Lady keep singing, ya'll can hold this L
Catching bodies like they crowd surfing, show went well


Think I might free myself today, ooh yeah
Free myself today, ooh yeah

You might freeze yourself to death, ooh yeah
Freeze yourself to death, ooh yeah

Killing that vibe, you end up like the Joneses
Get your brain fried and chill you to the bone

Getting so high, we living in the moment
Came here to shine, can’t do that shit alone

Major with the crimes, they getting with the program
I’mma do mines, I’m getting in my zone

Wizard of Oz, it’s green when we show them
You sleeping in the poppies, now the shit’s gone
