(SUPA VERSE)
I can't sing
But Ima scream lovely about you
and prides my thing
But nothing feels normal without you

Pipe down don't need your pious 
She's bad and smoking all my weeed

(Supa Hook)
met her in France
met her in Seoul
met her in Congo
Met her in Chicago
Her daddy rich
Mercy Gallardo 
I be off the Lucy
Ricky Ricardo 
I feel like Cuba
Being embargoed 
Reprieve Asata 
Let me get my cargo
Tryna make a killin livin for tomorrow
If you hate me you a villain living for tomorrow! (x2)

(Khori4 Verse)
When i met her 
she was bad enough to bring to the good side 
decided to make her better
then we chilled and we smoked and we did what we want 
told all my other women that id be back in november 
im quarterback some futures creatin a lot of winners 
She was dope 
she was cool 
she was cunning 
actin a fool

(Carl verse)

Work it out We gotta work it out Cause it's perfect out. 
It Ain't cold no more Ain't no dirt around 
Just the lords with me 
Everybody sees us 
What does it mean? 
does Anything mean anything?

Anomalies abominations 
I don't spit rhymes and frees For nominations 
You speaking evils check your connotation 
Mama Africa been ovulating 
Semicolon Carl Notice we don't notice y'all I'm puffin potent Just performing proper protocol 
I'm prototypical Yo promo just don't pose a threat 
Hoping I die late dilated pupils Focus on that check 
Cause really I ain't seen the ocean yet no retrospect 
In a world of disharmony and complications 
I don't spits rhymes and frees for nominations 
You speaking evils to avoid the confrontation with your evils 
Feels these words that turn to needles 
Got you contemplating I been waiting I'm so patient 
Ain't got no waters ain't no boiling point I'm hot as satan 
Bought a golden freedom ring In light of those Who locked in cages 
Gotta let this freedom ring So y'all can see how awesome fate is

Fresh Water [Whoarei/Knxwledge Rework]

Chicago’s winter was especially brutal in 2014, yet in stark contrast, our Hip Hop scene has been on fire.  On the coldest day of the year we assembled an all-star cast of Mick Jenkins, Dally Auston, NoName Gypsy, Saba and producers OnGaud at SoundScape Studio for a special Closed Session.  

While this group of emcees and producers have been friends for a long time, and worked together in the past, this session was their first time all working together simultaneously on one song.  The result is “Realer Than Most” a dope new cut from our newest compilation, Closed Sessions Vol. 3 releasing soon.
