Splitting Branches 

People (ft. Shelf Nunny & Lena Kuhn)

Track is part of the album Splitting Branches, 17th of February, 2013

Cause day light drips like liquid matter,
Puddling horizon wake.
Night time shifts and shadows shatter,
Shifting into shapes.

You won't last very long like "modern man life span"
I ran my plan, take a glance as my eyes scan.
Take into account, if I'm making an amount,
If I don't, I probably wasn't faking them out.
Break a fucking plate, earthquake in ya house,
Spit venom when I rap like there's a snake in my mouth.
Split an atom in half, precise movement from the source
As fire scorch, and multiply in force,
I distort hazy vision clearly through my opticals.
Third eye blind, rarely overcoming obstacles.
Barely possible, chances are you'll rot away.
Melt your braincells, like ice cream on the hottest day
Of the year, it's crystal clear though my crystal ball.
Tried on the crystal shoe, shit was a little small.
Search your body, find internal peace well within,
Acid eats your flesh and reveals your skeleton.
As it melts away, it denigrates to liquid,
I can't help what I say, mind sets twisted.
Gifted in a sense, coincidently balanced.
Im part brilliant, part mentally challenged.

& more often then not, we don't even know what were looking at

Day light drips like liquid matter,
Puddling horizon wake.
Night time shifts and shadows shatter,
Shifting into shapes.

This song is about Tree having to part ways with his girlfriend, Kirsten Artemecia Rosenberg, to move to California.

Track is part of the album Splitting Branches, 17th of February, 2013Artemecia, I must leave
There's much out there that I must see
Don't be mad, I'll be back

Artemecia, we will grow
If its apart then we will know
It wasn't meant to be
It wasn't destiny

We will make it if we want too
We will make it so much better
We will make it if we want too
We will make it, what ever

Artemecia, I am gone
I'll be back it won't be lone
I'll be back
I'll be back

Original description, recovered via Wayback Machine, is as follows:
This tracks sounds consist of all real instruments and samples i recorded and finished within one week. You will find a wide range of new sounds including a bassline made with a Didgeridoo, a gameboy, coffee grinders, a synth made from my dog barking, clocks, multiple flutes for both high/mid synths and all kinds of sounds of strange little instruments. For my drums i used recordings of my toasters, can openers, every sound i could find in my kitchen, my turkish hand drum, and the list could go on forever. But thanks to those who helped me get the sounds. I also want to thank my girlfriend Kirsten for singing the female vocals. Im trying to explore and break out side the box, but at the same time im keeping certain elements of singing and raping so the music is not to abstract. The artwork is done by my dear friend Josh Mitchell, hope you enjoy! Much love - tree

"revival" Lyrics:

(Rap Verse)
Smoking Pot that's laced, may cause thoughts that race,
Like lost in space, but taste, 10 times worse then toxic waist,
Drop the bass, it might rot your face.
It's over man, over there,
Looking like Medusa with the cobra hair.
Stuck on the track and the night train hits ya,
Energy flash, full flame, I emit the
Power from within, cause they will,
Stab your back like a rusty rhino,
Whats up man don't think that I know?
I know. Style is immaculate.
Spit while I speak, it happens on accident.
Stacking shit, like each brick on my pyramid,
I'm angry and bloody like a bitch on her period.

(Chorus)
I know, Scratch it back like vinyl,
I'll be back, revival, survival is key,
It's not for the weak.
It's fine though.

(Bridge)
I know. It's so easy,
I know. It's so easy if you try
I know that, It's ok.
I know. It's so easy,
I know. It's so easy if you try.

This is Separation. This is me dealing with the end, while acknowledging the beginning of something beautiful. This is the after math of a revival that never worked out. This is Separation.

Lyrics:

Don't tell me to go home, staying solo
until the sun sways out of the sky.
Time seems to move so slow, just leave me alone though
It's easier if we don't try.
Separation can hurt though, it's like the end of a circle
there's not an easy way to end it in site.
We both thought it could work though, but it just got worse so
I said it's easier if we don't try.

Chorus
Because I'll be back when your gone
& I know that, I'll be back when your gone.
It moves me, it moves me, it moves me away
It moves me, it moves me, day after day.
Because I'll be back when your gone
& I know that, I'll be back when your gone
I'll be back, I'll be back, I'll be back when your gone.
