The Sermon

They say it’s 10w40
Pumps through my veins like an engine
No speed limit on this highway
We move like the heart’s on a vengeance
It’s nothing like the county fair
There’s rides, but they all require tickets
But the destination’s highs and lows
And once you’re on, that’s it (fuck it)
Never turn to look back
Don’t expect the unexpected
Or totally look for what’s hiding
Call a friend so you can let go
There’s a love sometimes reckless
Where silence is affected
And where we go, sometimes, you won’t know
But once you’re on, that’s it (fuck it)

My Heart Keeps Pumping
You try to make me feel my insecurities
You wanna show me all my faults and what I done
And I start to question every move I’m making
Always asking myself is this the one
I let myself get shut down off the words you say
Wasting time on tryna be someone else
I let you tell me what I should and shouldn’t be doing
So much, I forgotten what it was to be myself
It’s gotta be craziness how I let you seep in
Creepin’ up on me like the coldest ambush
I wanna run run run- I fall into this deepness
Just to find the only way to cut is to push, but….
Is that all you got for me?
You almost got me
But I come with surprises- You thought you’d get by
But my heart keeps pumping
" You see, I've been here before
I recognize these walls, the lights, the floor
the smell, the taste, the swelling hearts pace
Racing fierce, chase the fear, smoke & mirrors
I find it hard to breath I think I'm choking here
You never hear my words but I've spoken clear
Love is war and I'm a solder here
but whys it so damn hard to find an open ear
Definition of integrity no matter how you spin it
Sounds real nice but you don't know how to live it
you hate the criticism but you sure know how give
No idea what you want but you still try to get it.... get it
Now it's on to the next shows
it's my own fault/ you was wrong from the get-go
Deep down I truly hope it's hard to see me go
You were easy-come so please, Easy..... go”
I’m erasing all the messages you left for me
Your words fall off the page where they used to cling
I can do better without you here with me
And when you close the door behind you, leave the key
No longer in the fear that you’ll reject me
The woman in the mirror, she shines like a queen
I gave away your lock and hold- you been shut out
And when they ask who won the battle, there ain’t no doubt.

The Birthday Song
02:54
|
|||
I spotted your eyes from across the room
As bright as the sun, they’d make every flower bloom
I hate to be cliche, but if I don’t talk to you
I’m not completely sure just what I would do
Don’t know if you came alone or with a crew
I thought I’d come over and holler at you
And you could just say no- I won’t tell you what to do
But I heard it’s your birthday… could I sing this to you?
Can I have this dance with you baby?
Can I have this dance with you?
You make everyday feel just like it’s a birthday
Can I share 365 more with you?
Now, it’s been years since, and we’re still going strong
People they wonder how we sill get along
I tell them “When you have a gift this good, you take care of it”
And in you, baby, I just can’t go wrong
You’re sweet as sugarcane- the words to my song
The very sun that lights my whole day long
And now another birthday, and we’re still satisfied
So for you, baby, I sing this little song.

Fly Moon Royalty Seattle, Washington
Dichotomy in a partnership is always tricky, but not for Seattle’s Fly Moon Royalty. Bleeding with all the heart and soul of
blues and r&b, combined with the contemporary aesthetics of modern day electronica and hip hop, the collaboration of the Seattle-based duo is a perfectly fitting contradiction.
Comprised of vocalist, Adra Boo and DJ/Producer/Emcee Mike Illvester
