Broken Vessel (Tunde Olaniran Remix Feat. Irawniq)

See him flossing in that metal 
the game’s in a higher level 
Dimensions; we into several 
You see we get them together 
DIY fringe be swangin’ 
bangers-bangers he slanging 
Show on point, he slayin’ 
He wasn’t always this way in fact 
Brown boy slanted eyes 
bleach-stained sweat suit 
Throwin’ water on me 
in the middle school restroom 
Only brown head in my 9th grade play 
13 walking in the streets of uk 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Smiling through the vicious 
a puzzle piece never fittin’ 
a new thread that he was given 
to weave a singular vision 
Could never be avaricious 
instead a quiet ambitious 
No reason left to resist it 
a hater just sound fictitious 
So I’m not, quittin, they stay, squintin 
try to dictate a life they not, living 
T.O. been about that truth, spillin 
don’t buck like a deer when shots hit him 
Don’t Formula One this path that you’re on 
we all gotta make our own living 
Cry out loud, don’t stay, hidden 
fear to fail, say good riddance 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Nathaniel said: “you can’t see me” 
In February, he freed me 
Cleared my head of debris, 
we shattered my boundaries 
and the lowered degree was healing 
Winter was sorely needed 
Like Pakistan, I seceded 
my leaving won’t be repeated 
Never read for them tight roles 
My eyes looked where the sky goes 
So rare like albinos 
Poachers, we zoom right by those 
Few in number like rhinos 
Reaching up for them high notes 
Study me like yo bibles 
cats fall in line like I’m Lion-o 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied

Namesake

This is unconventional 
only way that we can roll 
and if we runnin’ outta coal 
I know some people who can pull 
I’m talking people who do right 
Use their tongues to spark and light 
Plan to aim it, push it fight it 
teach it learn it, save, ignite it 
This is urgent so best plan on me to overnight it 
Might Ehren Watada 
My vision is brighter 
You’re not tall; just miter 
No cloister to hide out 
Zoom, zoom, zoom my lighter 
with a balaclava 
Clink, clink, clink the bottle 
making molotav 
Throw it up in the air 
mystic with this we shine just about anywhere 
only ‘cause I care 
 
 
I love you 
so much you make the nights better 
you make them lights hotter 
you make the sweat wetter 
I love you 
so much you make this worth doing 
just keep that truth spilling 
keep your body moving 
 
 
Get out your seats please don’t be rude 
I am not your average dude 
Pick up hints and clues I’m shrewd 
Rosanna Pan calls me Nancy Drew 
Gotta bag of tricks make my words backflip 
Trip over metaphors, then I squeeze em like clips 
So hold up, focused, armed like soldiers 
We’re ready for war, I thought I told ya 
Thunderbird, '65, all white, cream inside 
chrome finish, fresh to death 
Killed the game so they can testify 
Synths analog, kick strong 
I keep it in the trunk of the car I’m driving 
You can buy all the swag that you can 
but you crash, when you try to ride in my lane 
Like I learned to ride a bike in one day 
ain’t nothing to hide my bruise 
Tears and rain in the concrete 
there’s no challenge I refuse 
Now I’m black and blue 
Ain’t gotta rule you 
just keep you body movin til it’s 
black and blue 
They don’t own it, so they can’t control it 
 
 
I love you 
so much you make the nights better 
you make them lights hotter 
you make the sweat wetter 
I love you 
so much you make this worth doing 
just keep that truth spilling 
keep your body moving 
 
 
See the lights go out 
Then the knives get drawn 
Hear the boots hit the ground 
when it all falls down 
First the lights go out 
then the knives get drawn 
So let this thought ferment: 
When did you revoke consent? 
Do you need a homestead to defend? 
Tear down the fence 
 
 
I love you 
so much you make the nights better 
you make them lights hotter 
you make the sweat wetter 
I love you 
so much you make this worth doing 
just keep that truth spilling 
keep your body moving

FAWNN - Galaxies

Out September 9, 2016.

In Belleville Renderings Part I, Heathered Pearls pays homage to one of his childhood homes in Michigan as well as Detroit techno icons The Belleville Three. A chamber of echoes and delays introduces the track, while a deep bass motif propels it forward, and bright synths float across the driving beat. The release marks his third creative collaboration with his sister Martyna for Ghostly. Previously working together on the artwork for HP’s recent LP Body Complex and the Koivu shirt lines for The Ghostly Store, the remaining parts of the Belleville project will be realized through upcoming music and a cement installation series.
