"he can work those buttons like a thousand clits"

I love how your music defines you, your not a rapper trying to be the same as otherss.... Fuck yee keep doing watchu doing man!!

Survive (feat. MK-1) is the third single from my debut album, titled "One": https://itunes.apple.com/au/album/one/id858960466

I wrote this song about the connection between people who share something in common. Often we meet people who we can have a conversation with because we recognise something about their appearance that is common to our own identity. We can talk about a whole bunch of things before even knowing their name. We come together on common ground.

Lyrics

Verse 1:
I recognise my people by face before I know the name
smile when we greet because we understand the same
share the same sight through eyes watered with pain
yet we hold tightly onto our faith and maintain
we speak on each other’s life
share mutual respect and connect because we’re one in the fight
knowing with insight that the battle will test
but we gotta stay ahead of the rest like playing chess
but understand you give what you get: a full circle
and love can be spread coz it’s felt universal
our blood separates us, by faith we’re connected
by strength we survive and by courage we’re respected
after we spoke we joke about the world’s fear
the most peace loving people with unshaven beards
and they wonder why we keep it, it’s no secret
our faith is the food for the soul so we need it
to survive

Chorus:
Where are you going?
said, where are you going to run to… to run to?
Where are you going?
said, where are you going to run to…
to survive?

Verse 2:
Spiritual genocide and the war is in the mirror
how can life be sweet when you feel so bitter
I grit my teeth and dig deep
with so many questions on my mind, I miss sleep
but never lose sight of my dreams
I keep my faith close to my heart so the light’s a high beam
I raise my fist to the sky about as high as can be
and send a prayer out to all of my lions and queens
I bow my head to the Guru that raised me
and pay respect to the saints coz your wisdom aids me
we went from fighting with words to fighting with swords
then surviving the times and now we’re fighting with minds
I feel the winds of change and it tends to amaze me
coming to terms with me means you can never change me
it ain’t easy but when you search you will find
that everything tends to pass like time
and so we survive

Chorus

Bridge:
{ Everybody in the place with me
put your fists in the air where they’re meant to be } (x 4)

Chorus

Close Your Eyes (And Count To Fuck)

From Citizen Kay's debut full length album, 'With The People'
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Uh, picture this, little kid, dark skin toned
Among some light skins homies all day long
So unaware of what his people been through
So confused to a point where he would even be blue
Red, yellow, anything but black, how bout that
Stripped back of any pride for no reason in particular
Would give anything to be light skinned, so insecure
Would pay it with his soul if possibly that was simpler
So detached from his roots, 
Being stereotyped was getting old, but couldn't see it in his looks
Uh, one flick to the dick wont bruise,
Times that by a thousand and maybe you'd feel it too, ooo
But luckily this child developed within
A thick skin surfaced and suddenly he was winning
Beginning to understand how to react
Keep cool, and this cruel world, it can't pull you back, no!

Pre-Chorus:
I've heard a whole lotta things throughout my life
Things to pull me down, instead have made me fight
My homies wanna know how I don't start flexing
I tell 'em it aint a secret, in fact, its one lesson, said

Hook:
What you do, when life gives you lemons?
You just cut them fuckas up in 20 seconds, don't sweat it (x4)

Verse 2:
I been called an animal, coulda caused collateral
Damage but i handle it, better than most rambling
Been looked at worse than a hood rat
Grannies locked eyes with me but I aint never look back
Like this individual probably a born criminal
Actions are so predictable, attitude so despicable
Check him for that medicinal, crack probably is visible
Blacks should be invisible, lack what is formidable
I just straight fall into that stereotype
Black rapper cooking chicken, aw, that must be right
I can see it in their eyes like "You still here?
Thought you was making money now?" See 'em spill tears
Only of laughter, whisper to me only my disasters
Even close loves don't believe I'm the answer,
its like "Maybe you should have a back up
Industry's kinda tough and it only gets tougher"
But you really don't get it, see I'm on mission
Your words I hear em but I really don't listen
Aw, na I aint worried, no I don't trip one bit
To you my path seem dark but to me its lit

Pre-Chorus:
I've heard a whole lotta things throughout my life
Things to pull me down, instead have made me fight
My homies wanna know how i don't start flexin
I tell 'em it aint a secret, in fact, its one lesson, said

Hook:
What you do, when life gives you lemons?
You just cut them fuckas up in 20 seconds, don't sweat it, na
What you do, when life gives you lemons?
You just cut them fuckas up in 20 seconds, don't sweat it, SAX!

(Sax Solo)

I've heard a whole lotta things throughout my life
