lyrics

[Genshu]
2013 the first split occurred
From who we thought we were
Straight from the motherland
From a tiny island
Arrived on the new continent
Character building
Let myself sinking
Oil into water not emulsified
Contradictions multiplying
Most of the time
To all of us I would be lying

2016 was a dream
Temporary balance achieved
Learned to speak out more
Yin yang superpowers
Full circle with my ancestors
Connect the dots

2021 the next one occurred
Obliterated to a thousand pieces
Change of state and taste
Happily confused but I’m focused now

Let these puzzle pieces merge; indefinite fashion
Permanent friction like plates causing a chain reaction
Any dreams turns real after one of us speaks loud
Bliss strictly comes when a scream echoes and resounds

Borrowing gospels straight from another mind
This new roster brings stories from another land
Foreign extra
4 tongues and unspoken extra
Double troubled and broken extra

[Joseph Wallace]
I love you but I’m miserable
Feelin’ a little lyrical
Dichotomy of the individual
That means we split in two

It’s like my Sunday ritual
Dimethyltryptamine visuals
Colours be swirlin' sounds are whirring in
I’m feelin' concerned again

But that’s my patience wearing thin
I went away but now I’m here again
Still cruising through the meridians
Trippin', fallin' over when I bruise my shins

Sirens change my mood again
I don’t loose man I usually win
Whispers of an evil djinn
That’s why I’m DJin'
Switch the record they been beggin' him
Bring the fun from the beginning

Been here as part of the furniture
Chop it up as firewood to burn for you
I got fuel like a murderer, murderer, like a murderer
Killer on the beat speak the word for you
The seance of the ghosts start to circle you
Howlin' wind where the curtains are
