TURN THE MUSIC UP
TURN THE MUSIC UP
BEHOLD: THE THIRD AND FOURTH SINGLES FROM OUR UPCOMING RECORD.
A “DOUBLE-SINGLE” RELEASE. LEGEND HAS IT, BACK IN THE DAY MUSIC WAS RELEASED THIS WAY WHEN BOTH SONGS ARE SINGLES & CHOOSING JUST ONE ISN’T POSSIBLE! YOU'LL NOTICE THERE IS A SEAMLESS TRANSITION BETWEEN BOTH SONGS. THEY WERE DESIGNED TO BE PLAYED SEQUENTIALLY.
BE WARNED THAT BOTH SONGS ARE BANGERS.

HERE'S THE LYRICS TO
"TURN THE MUSIC UP"
AS WE STAND IN THE CUBE OF RELATIVE TIME
TRANSIENT PEOPLE WITH NOTHING TO HIDE
WE FOLLOW OUR NOSE
TO THE LIGHTS AND THE BEATS
THERE’S THOUSANDS OF FEET
IN THE NEW YORK STREETS
BEEN TOO LONG SINCE I LEFT THE FARM
MY QUEEN AND I BE ARM IN ARM
SHE FOLLOWED THE WHISKEY
I FOLLOWED EMOTION
THERE’S WINE IN THE WATER-
BRING ME THE OCEAN
YOU KNOW YOU’RE NOT ALONE
JUST LEAVE THAT THANG AT HOME
BANGIN’ ON THAT FIRE ESCAPE
TILL’ THE COPS SHOWED UP
BUT THEY WERE RUNNING LATE
SHE HAD A MOUTH FULL OF GOLD,
EYES LIKE DIAMONDS
I WAS THE GIRL SCOUT, SHE WAS THE VIOLIN
IF YOU THINK YOU CAN DO IT ON PAPER
THEN PASS ME THE TREE
AND I’LL SHOW YOU THE VAPOR
NO REASON TO STARE
I’LL MAKE TIME FOR YOU LATER
I AM THE EYE OF THE COSMIC RELATER.
DO ME A FAVOR, PUSH UP THE FADER
SENSE MY INTENT BECAUSE I’M NOT A WAITER
ALL MY TRAITORS AND HATERS
BE SEEING YOU LATER//
I GOT A FLIGHT TO FRANCE
LET’S DANCE
DREAMING IS FREE IF YOU
OPEN THE DOOR TO YOUR MIND
LONG AS YOU’RE LOOKING
THERE’LL ALWAYS BE SOMETHING TO FIND
WHERE DO WE GO IF
THE BLIND KEEPS ON LEADING THE BLIND?
TURN THE MUSIC UP
DOCTOR DOCTOR
I WANT TO PARTY ALL THE TIME
DOCTOR DOCTOR
TURN THAT WATER INTO WINE
DOCTOR DOCTOR
HELP ME PARTY ALL THE TIME
DOCTOR DOCTOR
TURN THAT WATER INTO WINE
HERE'S THE LYRICS TO
"SHIRLEY"
​
LIFE, IN A SERIES OF VISIONS
WHEN YOU’RE OLD, IT PLAYS LIKE A FILM
WHEN THE CIRCLE OF LIFE FINDS AN END,
THE CYCLE BEGINS AGAIN
EVERY WORD THAT YOU SPEAK
EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO
FOLLOWS YOU HOME, YOU’RE NOT ALONE
I BELIEVE THAT THERE’S DEATH BEFORE LIFE
THE ONLY RIGHT WE HAVE IS TO CHOOSE
IF WE WIN OR WE LOSE
IT DETERMINES OUR VIEW
DOES YOUR MEMORY COMFORT YOU OR HAUNT YOU?
I KNOW I CAN’T HIDE,
I’VE BEEN LIVING A LIE
AND I KNOW
I’LL BE SEEING YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE
I BELIEVE IN LIFE AFTER DEATH
I KNOW IT’S OUT THERE,
BUT I CAN’T FIND IT YET
THERE’S NOWHERE TO HIDE
WHEN YOU’VE BEEN LEFT BEHIND
AND THE CYCLE BEGINS AGAIN
I’M NOT READY TO DIE
DEATH’S A THIEF IN THE NIGHT
BUT I KNOW
THAT I’LL SEE YOU AGAIN ON THE OTHER SIDE
