Let em' find what they need
Light it up and we'll see
Everything is in you

Ohh you've come so far baby..

ILL CAMILLE - "Touché" Feat. Preston Harris

Phoenix (Prod By Chxrlie Blair)

Learn, teach, build, protect yourself. This should be automatic. We encourage you to focus on what will propel you to a better life.  Contained by no man, by no beast. 

“Automate”

“…In essence, one other thing, instead of you and me running around here seeking allies, in our struggle for freedom, in the irish neighborhood, or the jewish neighborhood, or the Italian neighborhood, we need to, we need to seek some allies among people who look something like we do”
- Malcom X

“…Sit down at the table of brotherhood”
 - Martin Luther King Jr.

“…Its time out for you and me to stop, running away from the wolf right into the arms of the fox, looking for some kind of help. That’s a drag.”
- Malcolm X


Its sure ain’t easy and it may get harder as the days moves on
with every lesson, baby be a blessing cuz you never know
what might change, rearrange for the better or go up in flame
Better count your blessings, keep stepping, don’t you ever give your life away

You got to change, you gotta make waves
you’ve got to stay, hell no
I’m not playing games with the enemy

Automate,

“I have a dream, that one day… Rise up!”

(this should be automatic, this should be automatic)

Its sure ain’t easy and its gon’ harder as the violence swarms
a historic lesson, moving and shaking till the battles won
You hear those sirens of tyrants don’t you ever let em think they’ve won
With strategic guidance we’ll rise and overthrow with an uppercut

You’ve gotta be smart, you’ve got to have heart 
You’ve got to say, Hell no
No weapon thats formed will ever conquer me

You must Automate

“I have a dream,”

convert your mind

“that one day”

(this should be automatic, this should be automatic)

“Rise!”


Its sure been easy to fall so victim to dysfunction
beg and pleading for reparations from greedy ones
(what you expect?)
what might change, rearrange if we built everything we need
Then who could take or really break us when you got the blueprint and key?

You got to stand, You’ve got to demand
You’ve got to say, Hell no
I’m nobodies slave that’s on everything
YOU

Automate

“I have a dream,”

You’ve felt this pain, its a game, lets get this straight
You should know it already

“Rise!”

Rise up and make your way, strategize, keep faith.


“All of this rage. In a wake thats headed towards justice rather than killing each other this is a different moment ya don’t say? Thats exactly right. Thats what we want, thats what we need. But the challenge is gonna be: Can we pass on to the younger generation the expression of that rage like: Douglas and Dubois and Ella Baker and Ida B Wells Barnett and Malcolm X and Martin King, through Love and Justice rather than hatred and revenge. Thats the challenge. Theres got to have a moral quality and spiritual content to it. Because the rage is going to come. America you’re gonna reap what you sow. Sooner or later  you’re gonna come to terms with those who have been sacrificed for your progress.”
- Cornell West

"Lift Your Head"

Underneath the darkness is life
reaching from a hard place for light.
Sometimes the water is a little far away
and you say your roots get dry everyday
Underneath the doubt is the mind
screaming don’t you ever stop this climb
sometimes we grow in the strangest holes
don’t you know a rose is your final form 

Lift Your Head Up
Lift Your Head Up
If you want it you gotta believe that its already yours
don’t you know you’re the key to the source
Just lift your head up
Hey, Hey, hey
I think you got it right here
yeah, yeah

Way up over head is the sun
neighboring the moon and the stars.
Been shinning past a couple billion years time
and it powers up a universe of life
Don’t you know up above your head you can fly. Fly.
Man I couldn’t find limit in the sky
Sometimes we just don’t know what we’re capable of
and thats just before you rise and you shine for the world.

Lift Your Head Up
Lift Your Head Up
If you want it you gotta believe that its already yours
don’t you know you’re the key to the source
Just lift your head up
Hey, Hey, hey
I think you got it right here


We all might fall a thousand times
Might lose the way, may have to fight
Might drop to your knees and surrender some tears
Feeling all alone taunted by fear
Let go of all that holds you back
Your struggle ain’t in vain, it will in fact
be the mark the stage to show the pain you’ve over come


Lift Your Head Up
Lift Your Head Up
If you want it you gotta believe that its already yours
don’t you know you’re the key to the source
Just lift your head up
Hey, Hey, hey
I think you got it right here
yeah, yeah


Don't give up now
Don't give up, no
Mmm, no
Don't give up, don't do it
Don't you dare, don't you dare.



Lift Your Head

"Exp. Interlude"

All of our experience and our definition of this thing called love...

Exp. Interlude

"TRACE"

Theres so many ways that I could say it to you
I could sing it, write it even pray it for you.
Go to the highest mountain and scream it for you, (Scream it for you babe)
It would not be enough to show how I adore you.

Even in languages made in a distant world
I'll spell your name with the stars cross the universe 
Love is the paint brush, I'll paint such a masterpiece
I'll make it plain, no mistakes, so you won't misread


So I'll trace over your design
I'll trace it I don't need no guidelines
I'll just face it while you sit back for the ride
I'll do it for you every single time, like	
Ooh let me have you babe

Theres so many styles I wanna show you
Looking all surprised, you've never known it like this, girl I bet it all
You can try to hold it, but baby there ain't nothing you can do
(But scream for it babe)
In your pretty fuchsia, the overflow
(is all I want for you)

Just let it flow over me, like water to the shore
I'll take you high on bended knees without you asking for it
I love when you're rollin', folding, feigning for it, shaking, loving me for it
Till it rains, say my name, girl I aim to please


So I'll trace over your design
I'll trace it I don't need no guidelines
I'll just face it while you sit back for the ride
I’ll do it for you every single time, like
Ooh let me have you babe

Hooo!
Hoo!

My fingertips address your movement
All your secret spots I’ve made my favorite
I’m watching you bloom, don’t fight it girl you need it
Deep, baby you get all this vibe for your sensation 
Ooh and I can give you more (Oh, Ohh)
far beyond a stroke, you know (you know)
Let my lips travel your form
girl, good tantra makes it warm.


TRACE

Good Morning

"Hummingbird"


Its all so dramatic,
the feelings, the memories I've canned inside
to know there is one person standing
between love and hate I can't stand it.
Its all too demanding
I want love she won't let me have it
why do we play games when we're upset
its better to flow with the current.
but, swimming under your waterfalls, kicking off all your fishes bones
dealing with what did not involve me, trying to make it up shore
went under I'm reaching out, I lost her and blacked out
water willows turn into pillows, familiar flutter outside the window


Hummingbird, where do you go
what do you mean to me now that, I'm all alone.
Hummingbird stay if you want
what can you give to me now, can you tell my joy is gone.
Hummingbird, hummingbird


We’re all so distracted
the feeling, the meaning is absent
I know we’ve been programmed to argue love
But why can’t we break from this tragic trend?
Still believing the nonsense,
you want love on unrealistic terms
Where pride and emotion cut so deep
We patch it with sexual healing
Sometimes it feel like,


I’m in a lovers domino, with a blank and a double four
You’re looking at me like what you gon’ do
but you ain’t made no plays at all
A painful and carefree laugh, we don’t even do the same math
unless we count up your every tear drop
till its, Hennessy buzzing’ and baby don’t stop


Hummingbird, where do you go
what do you mean to me now that, I'm all alone.
Hummingbird stay if you want
what can you give to me now, can you tell my joy is gone.
Hummingbird, hummingbird


I’ll just leave it alone, you won’t even know
I’m already gone, say goodbye fa sho
Gotta let it all go
I’ll just leave it alone, you won’t even know
I’m already gone, say goodbye fa sho
Gotta let it go


Hummingbird, where do you go
what do you mean to me now that, I'm all alone.
Hummingbird stay if you want
what can you give to me now, can you tell my joy is gone.

Hummingbird

"iloveyou"

She told me
“Love don’t live here anymore”
But, I’m not gon’ take her word for it (ha)
When it all comes down to your heart
You know that Love gon’ take you away, alright?
So while I wait on your touch,
I’ll write these songs to describe my love,
(describing my Love)
girl it all comes down to You and I
You’re the only one I want by my side

I Love You.
I Love You.
I Love You.
Oh I Love You,
Wherever you are
 
No, no, no, no, no
Mm mm, no, oh no, no, no
They’ll never take my heart
It belongs to you
Queen its yours

Don’t worry bout the time its taken, 
we got our whole lives to make up.
Seeing your smile will be enough
Seeing your smile, looking in your eyes…

Short song about not giving up in Love, explaining all we really need is Love to continue on GENUINE LOVE!!

Presto - Don't Give Up

Decided to do a remake of America's anthem in celebration of the Brave souls of 9-11 God Bless and Enjoy

Presto - Star Spangled

Hey there baby
I’ve got something to say to you (x4)

Hey,
I could easily love, baby I won’t judge
I won’t make a fuss
I’ll be whatever you want me to be
As long as we are free to be what we feel

Just give me your passion and you got my commitment
don’t be mesmerized by all of these Instagram pictures baby
they pose a million times
post a million lies
come enjoy my brilliant mind
with no filters in sight baby

AWW YEAH!! 

We got a lot to scream about
But I mean really who do we choose
to lead this country now?

I look to God cuz the devil gon’ have his way here 
Don’t be nonchalant, I want you to see it clear

But do you know we got a purpose 
A goal, a dream
and its worth every drop of blood, sweat, soul and tear

I’m tryna multiply and divide this innovation
Build a community of healthy people
not just a people who are frustrated

I got something to say
I got something to say
We need more people that got something to say and act on it

AWW YEAH!!

cuz We got children to feed
Brothers and sisters to lead
I’m asking Are You That Somebody? to be a real friend in time of need sombody to act on it

If you are then come on!


WHOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

"How Do You Want It"

I hear a horror story or two
too often too soon
of a heart break in two
filled with the blues
a melancholy sonnet I knew, too well


I hear it calling out for the truth
 for anything, for a truce 
the response left a wound
harder to heal
a rigor mortis feeling consumes
I felt it from you


I say, baby don’t go away
you're alive ain’t you breathing?
there ain’t no other way
through the fire don’t you see it?
pressure building
when you come out the fire baby
a diamond, a diamond


If I could take away
every lie you believed in
clean up the disarray 
and vibe in a sequence
for your protection
could you build up the courage baby
allow me a question
listen darling
ooh how do you want it? 
how do you want it? 
how do you want it?

love
Its nobody else
its nobody else here
show you my right, show my left hand
get you right, cumming in my bed
giving you my love
burning bright, even through dark times
bonafide
even if you doubt it
Tell me How Do You Want it?


Ooh I’m a part of your essence
We can do love,
we can do better than
temporary, baby lets make a stand
Ooh I wanna
show you real, show you a real man
show you power, when we building together
How Do You Want It?


Listen Baby
How Do You Want It?
