lyrics 

maybe i only long for your warm embrace
maybe i only long just to see your face
will i be yours or am i just a passing phase
will you still love me when all of your memory fades

but this i promise you
i'll always be here for you
and when its all over, i will have no regrets
i'll say that i loved you until i took my last breath

for your warm embrace
just to see your face
just a passing phase
when your memory fades...

Mornings

lyrics

i met a girl in Marina,
standing right in front of the Cathedral,
and she told me her name was Halima,
the feeling was quite primeval, 
say maybe you'd wanna go dancing?
don't worry nothing too fancy,
definitely somewhere classy,
promise it won't be too flashy,
I had to take the time to appreciate you,
cause i'm certain i've never seen beauty so true,
used to be sure of myself and I always knew what to do,
but everything changed at that moment I saw you,
you were standing alone in Marina,
right in front of the Cathedral,
Oh my beautiful Halima,
the feeling is quite primeval,

and I'm giving it all to you,
cause it never felt so good
baby I'm giving it all to you,
cause it never felt so good.

mo ri sisi kan ni Marina,
mi o riru eleyi ri o,
baby ma mu mi se kirakita,
wa ba mi lo s'ile ijo,
babe I had to take the time to appreciate you,
cause i'm certain i've never seen beauty so true,
used to be sure of myself and I always knew what to do,
but everything changed at that moment I saw you,

and I'm giving it all to you,
cause it never felt so good
baby I'm giving it all to you,
cause it never felt so good.


see I met a girl in Marina,
right in front of the Cathedral,
told me her name was Halima,
the feeling was quite primeval,

Relax

lyrics

I heard about where you're from and I know there must be something in the water,
Cause girl you're hella fine and I bet you know you're better than the others,
you walk around looking like your melanin's dipped in gold,
I know I'm never gonna find a better looking girl on road,

See, other girls looking for attention, acting loosely,
you don't pay no mind, you fluoresce like a ruby, it's groovy,
No really it's magical, something so unusual,
I just gotta let you know,

Mama you bad oh, 
I get kinda giddy when I'm around you, mo ti lo cast oh, 
Let's take a trip, no need to worry cause I got the bands though, 
You roll with me, you're with a king and baby you can't lose, 
Baby you can't lose,

I won't say the things that you've heard over and again,
cause I know you're tired of all the normal ways,
So if you're looking for a change of pace,
tell you, I know where you can spend your days,

Why not come over to my place, my place,
you can take over my space, my space,
baby come over to my place, my place,
you can take over my space, my space

My Place

Music by Tim Lyre
Lyrics by Habiba Orsud

I'm sorry I'm not who I used to be, 
I've been taking these pills and they keep confusing me,
I swear that all these doctors been abusing me,
I tried to reach out for you, but you're avoiding me,
and how can I ever fix you when there is this void in me,
and I know it ain't what it used to be,
but I'm glad you grew and you're no longer waiting for me,
I see you even wrote our eulogy,

Don't you see what this does to me?
Don't you see?
But still I try to understand your accusations,
Popping pills to stop all my hallucinations,
But your mood still changes like the seasons, 
Writing all these poems just to justify your reasons,
Was it really me that committed treason, tell me?

Cause lately I been trying to right my wrongs,
I just wish you would stop writing these songs,
Because they remind me of everything we had and how I left you in the streets and you pretended you were sad,
But what you know about feelings, when its everything that you lacked? 
What you know about feelings, when its everything that you lacked?

Don't you see what this does to me?
Don't you see?
But still I try to understand your accusations,
Popping pills to stop all my hallucinations,
But your mood still changes like the seasons, 
Writing all these poems just to justify your reasons,
Was it really me that committed treason, tell me?

Cause lately I been trying to right my wrongs,
I just wish you would stop writing all these goddamn songs,
Because they remind me of everything we had and how I left you in the streets and you pretended you were sad,
But what you know about feelings, when its everything that you lacked? 
What you know about feelings, when its everything that you lacked?

inspired by londrelle's anti depressant.
