Re crafting to make your soul clap
Painted faces and the path I took will take me places
HV1-
I'm taking stage
engage these conclaves
In caves we carve days
and crave these shock waves (boom)
after shocks and they shaking the planet rock
and awaken the way we walk
and in moments we change the clocks
two new shoes homey what you think
now I'm on the move and I can't stop, wink
trying to get full and I mean like brink
so I tread quick so my ships don't sink, sailor
hell of a wailer, raging harder than ever
I iron my nice shirt was a medium, now major
yacht shaker, Yahtzee mutha***ka
I'm a walking walkie talkie
that'll kshk, come in danger
not no stranger to bush, the forest ranger
to search, seek and destroy
this weekend employees flavor
CH-
Lights lights free lights we light switch
painted faces and the path I took will take me places
Lights lights free lights we lights switch
BV1-
Drown down ya crown and pound out the sound
make ya earlobe chatter till it's crackin the ground
found, old map in the attic
smash the glass
light crash have at it
gone south on tha 5 drive
follow that gold pot drop
‘till it hide hind the water
farther than you needed
baja deeded
right where the sand beat the concrete
like he stole something
strong arm and steady
brave headed bread by the best born forgetting
force for letting, lesser be the fight there
sworn as we swing for the fence like a vice grip
CH-
Lights, lights, free lights, we light switch
hit the light switch
freaks come out at night
hit the lights switch
light switch
we light like glow sticks
on the floors with they pipes lit
HV2-
Live for that light then we fight 'till it's lights out
selector, selector, I bring the brain wrecker
that trap in your face no trace block banger
and then we,
have at but the speakers make you lifted
let it grow make it glow stay liquid
skin shakes all your clothes off, don't stop
rob 'till it's right cause we fight for the robots
BV2-
I really hate to linger, blink and I be gone
stand the hairs up on your arm
rook pawn feel the temperature arising
yeah but I like it better here
the speed I go, she might know, now she follows me anywhere
CH-
Lights, lights free lights we light switch
Painted faces and the path I took will take me places
Lights, lights free lights we lights switch

"A sound whose genre goes something like; hip-hop, soul, electro, funk. You have two Emcee’s who charge sped-up lyrical
flows; made to sound effortless…impressive and seamless synergy with their voices and their lyrics are playfully vivacious and positive." -Sam Dorman, NBC

I can't get enough Kalya Scintilla. Beautiful, harmonious psytribal glitch with a great natural, organic vibe that is similar to the Dance the Never Ending Spiral album. This album is somewhat downtempo, with dank beats that are phenomenally interesting, varyingly haunting, chill and uplifting. Production and song composition is top notch. 4000Qtrap
