“Now this is a creative project:
Prelude”
Growth is accepting truth as it reveals itself
This Aint an LP, Playlist, mixtape or EP
This CP lacks cohesion
It’s a true representation of what was going through my mind through this transition period
Some parts are laughs and others serious, so if you’re curious keep going
During a time of no incentives or inspiration
Just putting this together feels like vindication
Cause there’s hard truths I learnt going back to the grassroots
Back on ground zero and they’re saying you can’t move
But I know make art not content and don’t get too attached
That’s how you get lost in the moment and forget to adapt
I’ve been rapping longer than you’ve been raving save it
I’ve got styles quotables and statements
Patience is all it ever took and takes it
So pagans stay in the basement
You ain’t catching reception for my station
Penthouse, rooftop settings like the pirates for jungle and grime MCs to spit
Answer this; why they always want you to die before you’ve had the chance to live?
I lost out on a relationship just so I could say some shit (fuck you)
Into a microphone with strangers while she was lying at home frustrated
There’s a thin line between living in the moment, and exercising patience
Living Selfishly my selfish greed and selfish need rocked my self esteem
Convincing myself it’s altruism
I’m tryna blow for the both of us
That’s when the doubts would kick in
But minor you’ve gotta do for self
To prove your wealth
Fuq that it’s always proved when you’re try to self
(I’m not there)
Yes I’m sure that less is more
Rest assured I’ve pressed on pause
I was downing spirits while my grandma was singing
Ahh bless the Lord
I’ve seen the error of my ways
Lead to terrors and some pain
Every letter on the page
Is a setup for my gains
I’ve got difference of opinions from leaders of our dominion
But you’ve gotta pick your battles that’s a lesson to the brave
Stay safe, who’s sane?
This is my I wasn’t OK whenever I’d tell ‘em I’d been fine
Even when you hit it don’t get focused on your prime
Cause everything we go through’s just a moment in time
But for now man, just thank God that we’re a-

The Slump
03:40
|

I ain’t tryna prove that I’m in a different class
Only tryna move up I’m focused on my art
Everyday I can improve so I’m focused on the task and
When I meet love again…
I ain’t tryna prove that I’m in a different class
Only tryna move up I’m focused on my art
Everyday I can improve so I’m focused on the task and
When I meet love again…
I’ve been battling my rationale
Mind has some back-up files
Please spare a second as you
Witness me tap around
My mind’s been a battle ground
Peace I’ve gotta grab it out
Least let me have that now,
So beasts we can hash it out
Barely saying yes, my tunnel vision’s saying “no”
Overlookin’ all my highs too much attention to my lows
If I know someone that’s hurt then I feel I’ve gotta go
When I ain’t fixed my own so what’s the point we latch to hope
Now we’ve got a bunch of issues, but it ain’t no Vogue
Trust the ones you love and love the ones you trust, That’s the Code
I’ve been breaking my own rules, question if I devolved
So exposed, sorry if my actions don’t match my tone
Sticks and stones can’t break my soul
Words still alert me
To the worse me, and the fact my biggest opp is verse me
Firstly, to myself, prove that I am worthy
So I won’t be a mess when I invest and they desert me
Don’t deserve me, never earned me while I say it to myself
Hope you say it to yourself, you’ve got purpose on this Earth
Lord have mercy I’ve got questions, feel that I’ve been searchin
But it’s in the wrong places I realise I must search me
Search me, search me
Realise I must search me, search me
Realise I must search me, search me
Realise I must search me, search me
Search me search me
Search me search me
I ain’t tryna prove that I’m in a different class
Only tryna move up I’m focused on my art
Everyday I can improve so I’m focused on the task and
When I meet love again I’ll use my whole heart
I’ve been building on my fortitude
Just like I ought to do
Tryna hold myself down so much
That I could walk the moon
Pause the tune
I know this may come across as a talkin to
Important for me to clear out my mind
So let me walk you through
Planted seeds but there needs to be some horticulture
Can’t concede my wealth esteem or that progress is shortly over
If you’ve got a mind you’re GBHing or your peace is tainted
Or inebriated, hope you heard this when I caught it sober
If you see me wayward and you wanna ask what’s up?
I’ll broadcast this message with the hopes that your aunts share
We can’t stay hooked on sadness or being lost cuz
When I’m blue I still stand tall like I’m Marge hair
Pray my rise lasts not goes fast like shoulder shrugging
I’ve been prayin’ on my own to soar, like a lonely buzzard
I’ve been going round, tryna feel full like I’m Homer’s stomach
Can’t lose it doing music cause in my soul I love it
Therapeutic, everytime I write I’m so encouraged
Created my own pressure thank God my bones ain’t stunted
Every penny for my thoughts are cold, like I froze the budget
No pose or stunting I just had to really show you suttin
That’s real…
Suttin that’s real
Now you see how I feel
When you’re in the Slump
Go through it once
Then it really has to get trumped
Real
Now you know the deal
When you’re in that Slump
Go through it once
Then it really has to get trumped

I’ve been chillin’ with some people that I shouldn’t chill with

But I really wanna go home so I can pass out
When I’m in the backseat there ain’t no laugh out louds
Swear I’m gettin’ lost in the fumes of these clouds
Ain’t gettin’ high in the way that I’d want ta
But you know i’m here so I swear I could be on ya
We’re only here ‘cause we’re only here to conquer
And that’s why you could be here no longer
Ahh, what am I on this Earth for?
It ain’t to start these turf wars
I’ve gotta put myself first more
I know that I be worth more
Man I’ve gotta pray out
Gotta weigh out, all of my options
Yeah we’ve got problems and I swear they’re locked in
When I be looking round, I ain’t got no options
I’ve been chillin with some people that I shouldn’t chill with
Riding round the city and they’re talking how they’ll kill shit
I be sittin silent to not activate their kill switch
Brudda in the passenger says, “Oi can you bill this?”
Can you bill this

Real life, so be warned
Yeah you can’t be an arse now no heehaws
Yeah life is like a roundabout or seesaw
Yeah we’re coming with that real ting no rebores
Yeah we’ve gotta go straight there no detours
Yeah we’re gonna do it better, not like before
Yeah this is how I creep in, with C4
And this is, yeah I, uh,
I’m deep sure yeah, yeah
Looking in their eyes and they can’t be my bredrins
Peak at their minds I can tell they’re depressed kings
But they’re on vengeance there is no amendments
Think of their opps in the past tenses
I’ve just seen ‘em try and poke out intestines
I gotta tell my mudda that I’m with the friendsdem
I can’t wait for the minute that I’ve left them
Stay silent I know not to test them
I’m not here for any litigations
Tryna duck out of this whole situation
All they really need is my observations
I’ve gotta try and get away from their propagation
Yeah it’s spreading
I swear that these guys left all these guys beheaded
I dunno where I’m stepping
I’m tryna find my Bredrin
He’s really really missin’
I don’t really know but I’ve gotta ask this question
Why, why;
I’ve been chillin with some people that I shouldn’t chill with
Riding round the city and they’re talking how they’ll kill shit
I be sittin silent to not activate their kill switch
Brudda in the passenger says, “Oi can you bill this…”
Can you bill this
Can you bill this?
Can you bill this!
Can you bill this.!?
I’ve been chillin with some people that I shouldn’t chill with
Riding round the city and they’re talking how they’ll kill shit

When are you coming over?
Pussy so wet I need a life vest
I’m feeling raw, she’s feeling the nicest
She don’t need to ask me if she can ride this
Hop up on my ting and live your life til it’s lifeless
And if I come quick we’ve got a crisis
But once we go another couple rounds we’re feeling righteous
I might just, have to get you out your feelings
Cause with him you’re wearing trackies but with me you’ve got that night dress
But I don’t really care for the comparisons
You maintain that you wanna marry him, cool
I’m not here to ruin matrimony just call me when you’re lonely
Until you do your ceremony, yeah
All day you say he’s making you sick
So I don’t mind pulling up quick to be the medicine
I don’t need to have a key for where you live
Just make sure you’re home so that you can let me in
I pull up listening to Doggystyle she’s got a smile
Cause she claims that we’ve got a while
She had the mood lights for the moonlight
Man it’s too right that we’re gonna do this tonight
And I don't have a clue why I’ll be in her room right
Next to the place that her and her dude lie
Or on the kitchen counter where most of the food lies
Or in the bathroom where the lights make our hue shine
In due time we can live each other’s fantasies
I’ve explored every part of that anatomy
But I feel that there’s more that I have to see
And I can tell you are the same from the way you handle me
It’s not love, it's sweet how we end up spending our time
Had honey off your skin you’ve had chocolate off mine
Mm scrumptious, I know that you love this
Touch up between your thighs till you be erupting
Juicy and round like a tangerine
Gotta keep it clapping like a tambourine
Anytime I’m round we make the dampest sheets
Anytime I leave you call to say that they’re damp to uh…
Your friends have never met me
But they can’t stand me
I don’t give a damn B
All I wanna know’s that you’ve got a plan B
That is handy, you and I both know we can’t start a family ay
Like, no likes or comments on the socials
Nah, we just kept it uh uh
You give me that uh-uh
No likes or comments on the socials
Nah, we just kept it old school
I’ll give you that call when I’m local
And it’s agreed what we gone do
No likes or comments on the socials
Nah, we just kept it old school
You give me that call when it’s cool to
And you know I’ll try pull through
No likes or comments on the socials
Stay safe, have fun
Nah we just kept it old school
You give me that call when it’s local
And it’s agreed…
I don’t just love you
I love the love between us
I don’t just love you
I love the love between us
I don’t just love you
I love the love between us
I don’t just love you
I love the love between us
I walk around and I’m like oh haven’t they seen us
It is the real lust, the way I feel this
It’s me and you against the world and we’re on Venus
This is our boundaries, so astounding
Me and you together man it’s over

It’s usually when I’m still I find
Some of the stuff that’s still inside
Is reminiscent of Philistines
Still I rise
*deep breathe*
I feel each time, I feel it’s time
to get into feelings time
I project flaws, neglect thoughts
and sometimes even stress more
*deep breathe*
Taping emotions
Given them time to soak in
Happiness stems from joy but sometimes vices
Decide which to use cause next chapter we’re outside, bitch!
Bitch!
Bitch!

Yeah yeah i’m feeling alive
Oh yeah yeah I’m feeling the vibes
Yeah yeah i’m feeling alive
Yeah yeah
I’ve been on a mad journey
I’ve been on a mad one
I’ve been on a mad journey
One that I can’t outrun like
I’ve been tryna chase glory
Learn that I’ve gotta lose stuff
I’ve been tryna chase glory
But living life that’s my outcome
I’ve been waiting, patient for the revelations
Greatness in foundation gives birth to elevation
I’ve tried, I’m tired, got the inspiration
Gratitude for life that could never be mistaken
Open up my eyes a couple of times in the night time
Tryna catch the vibe but it really ain’t the right time
Why’s pride weighing heavy on my mind
When I drop the ego, I can feel what’s inside
When I open up my eyes
Counting blessings ‘fore I rise
I see you
Can’t hide if you wanted to,
I see you
LDN it’s a struggle here
Yeah we’re living in a bubble here
Everybody gotta hustle here
If you don’t then you’ll struggle here
Man i’ve tryna keep up with the place
I’ve gotta keep up with this pace
While not getting lost in the race
Man I’ve gotta thank God for his grace
I’ve been waiting, patient for the revelations
Greatness in foundation gives birth to elevation
I’ve tried, I’m tired, still got the inspiration
Gratitude for life that could never be mistaken
Open my eyes wide in the night time
Tryna catch the vibe but it really ain’t the right time
Why’s pride weighing heavy on my mind
When I drop the ego, I can feel what’s inside
When I open up my eyes
Counting blessings ‘fore I rise
I see you
Can’t hide if you wanted to,
I see you
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah I’m feeling the vibes
Feeling alive
Yeah yeah I’m feeling the vibes
Yeah yeah i’m feeling alive
Oh yeah yeah I’m feeling the vibes
Tryna build my independence
While I build on my inner strength cause
More blessings affi entrance
To my life cause I know it’s destined
Tryna build my independence
While I build on my inner strength cause
More blessings affi entrance
To my life cause I know it’s destined
I’m waiting, patient for the revelations
Greatness in foundation gives birth to elevation
I’ve tried, I’m tired, still got the inspiration
Gratitude for life that could never be mistaken
Open my eyes wide in the night time
Tryna catch the vibe but it really ain’t the right time
Why’s pride weighing heavy on my mind
When I drop the ego, I can feel what’s inside

Girl I’ve got the calm
No wasting Time
I’m tryna find, way to your waist
Girl what’s your vibe
Stuck on my mind why
I take some time
I wanna take
Your love,
Love love
Love
Love
Your love,
Love love
Love
Love
So I, met this girl at the Beigel Shop
No I didn’t wanna say too much
But when she looked in my eyes and I looked in her eyes
There’s a vibe and I know we can raise it up
Swear it don’t really take a lot
But if the chemistry’s there, then bake it up
You’ve got clothes and I’ve got garms
And I know one day we will take them off, but
Patience, don’t get frustrated
Gotta treat her right that’s a basic job
And if you can’t do that fam break it off
Cause your energy’s cheap, oh jeez
Don’t cost pounds or ps
Be the man in her eyes if she’s your queen
From the start is it honesty and transparency
Inside my mind is a dancing dichotomy
One half says you’ve gotta do stuff properly
Other side says you are obsolete
Really I just need to stop and breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Calm
Time
Waist
Vibe
Mind why
Time
Take
Girl I’ve got the calm
No wasting Time
I’m tryna find, way to your waist
Girl what’s your vibe
Stuck on my mind why
I take some time
I wanna take
Your love,
Love love
Love
Love
Your love,
Love love
Love
Love

Gal are lookin hot like Mexico
But they’re full of gas like Texaco
I don’t wanna hear about your ex you know
Nah
Good times are sponsored by the heat, the beat
The barbeques and Uncle Wrays
Good music and you’re drunk or waved
Drink with us you’re slumped for days
Way before I had my nose pierced
I been living my life without no fear
You’d be seeing the signs if you’re a close peer
I been tellin my guys we’re gonna go clear,
Oh yeah’s so near
Tonight, we’re gonna get it right
That’s right, let go be free don’t ever stop
Tonight, we’re gonna get it right
That’s right, let go be free don’t ever stop

That’s right, let go be free don't ever stop
Ch-Changes

“1-2 1-2 1-2
Gather round, gather round please
People please take your seats, take your seats yes, yes, yes
We’re about to start the show and, for our first sign up in the open mic today
We have a young man, well he’s not too young, but a young enough man who goes by the name of I think Lemz, Lemzi, yes ok correct, ok brilliant excellent
I'd like to bring him in the stage and I hope you can make him feel very very welcome
Ok Feel free to make some noise for him
Erm ok pure silence absolutely fine I’m sure he’s used to it
If you’d like to come up and you know how to hold the microphone right?”
“Yeah”
“Ok great take it away”
I’m a writer’s writer, so when I write up you’ll write a write up
Put your light up right up, light it til nothing left, must be right
I write a rhyme a night, my right to rhyme all night is all right, alright alright
Let me show you how we do this right cause
I was on the conveyor belt where my right brain didn’t have a chance
The thought of me doing this then that would’ve made you had a laugh
Adapting to my script and role, just like any acting star
I’m feeling pretty good now many people back the path
Tryna change my city like Aladdin did to Agrabah
If God is by my side then I don’t mind being the passenger
Do it for the soul but also tryna claim the stacks are large
2022 man, that’s the year that all the stats enhance
Who Jah bless, yeah they say no man can curse
Want you makin more noise than joyous auntie Afs at church
This will get biblical, you can go to all your Acts and search
You’re your hearts intentions, that is what a man is worth
Might hate it but it must be done just like a tax return
Wanna give you something smoking potent like how crack would work
But opposite affect because I stress I want the bad dispersed
With the contracts I don’t wanna see no higgy hagga terms
With at least my words, cause I make ‘em twist, flip
And then do some crazy shit just like an axel turn
I’m the symbol of tagging your people like how @s inferred
The symbol they’re tellin lies if they ever told you black is worse
Pull up and swipe away a demon like when an app don’t work
Swear it should be off with their heads for all of the cappin’ nerds
Only human course I’ll make mistakes that how our standards work
My spirit is written can’t be beaten by a satanic verse
Believe when I say that I studied the craft
Wanna be as ill as Slim with a saw and a mask
With a bottle of blonde peroxide and a flask
Filled to the brim with, er, don’t even ask
Or spit well as Big L when he was in hell
He’d say H-E-double hockey sticks
I’ve got a lot for this, soon I will topple this
That’s my hypothesis I thought it was obvious
I’m a novelist so when I jot and spit
You’d think I’ve got a scholarship in how to body this
I ain’t down with the politics, really aint a lobbyist
Might do what the prophet said and cause a Tupacalypse
Big or Small man the flow is notorious
In the booth free the truth never been spurious
Furious if they don’t see that it’s glorious
Curious how gory’s above the euphoria
How can you say that you manufacture
Raptures, when you write bars I write chapters
You’re a prize giving I’m a Bafta
The facts are to factor, our stature
Could never match up
Cause I could be nice as Will Smith or
I could inappropriate as smokin’ opium
In the open with old women, who’s close to death
And it’s cold for them or when rolling with
A load of men who chose to end their woes and sins
And never be round the dope again, uh
But I’m here
I’ll be damned if I don’t put on a show for them
I never pose for them
Blud put on any jazz through to Hoe Riddim
I’ve got flows for dem to carve calves in half
And ram lambs to show that I’m a G.O.A.T. to dem
Yeah I’ve gotta show em I’m the goat here, goat here
I’ve gotta do this with no fear, no fear
I’m gonna do it for the whole year, whole year
When I say it, you say Oh yeah, Oh yeah
Cause this is raw more than any spoken word
I was feeling so deterred
From coming up with an original flow or verse
Having thoughts that were so perverse
I got to a point I just wanted to delete all of my older work
I mean I spray shit and that’s how all my odour spirtz
I was praying to God to persevere and I know he heard
I don’t wanna listen to you like, you’re 30 and still got an older sir
I’ve been reminded it’s all inside me, I don’t even need to get in the zone to work
Alright I’m leaving
Finally! Jheez Louise
Gary you’re fired, OK!
Moving onto the next act swiftly
Ah ha apologies for any, technical difficulties ladies and gentlemen, we’ll be moving onto our next act so if the next act would like to get ready…”

Breathe.!? - Interlude

Before you proceed,
Take a moment, if you need
Sometimes shit gets real.
Sometimes we’re put in situations where the control we believe we’ve created dissipates
Sometimes that means we react with anger, without patience, or develop a resentful perspective.
We’re human.
Breathe
Breathe
It’s not to experience these things that we feel are detrimental to be wrong,
But if we dwell or live in these emotions and reactions,
We stay in a negative space
Sometimes shit gets real
And you miss out on that thing you really wanted
You miss out on that opportunity that comes once in a lifetime
Or you suffer your greatest loss of someone close
Sometimes shit gets real
Breathe
Breathe

You begin to ask, why not me?
I’m not better than them…
I tried to work out how I feel
When you went away
Now my heart is filled with grief
I wanted you to stay
Yeah, I was hurting all year, I was living in fear
Cause you picked up this terminal illness
Yeah your pain was physical, mine was mental
Didn’t want anyone to feel this
Thoughts and strains that contort my pain
Man I sought new ways I could be so resilient
One thing I did was sit with my thoughts and emotions man I had to practice stillness
Real shit....
Man I had to learn not to live in my head
Cause I was living in stress
Cause you were living and dead
Couldn’t even eat all the food that you wanted
Saw how the fam all responded
We didn’t want worries, we didn’t want sorrys
Man we had demons to conquer
No longer will I still be the little me
And there’s nothing out there to belittle me
I gotta move on spiritually
I swear this life’s so bittersweet
Do you remember,
We replaced steaks and lambs
For the aubergine and chickpeas
We had to move on quickly
Didn’t want you to live sickly
But as a parent, you were aware of
All of the pain that your kid sees
Had to transfer my tears to a smile briskly
I knew that it’d hurt if you saw that it hit me
Which means...
I had to live a life right to the day you died
Yeah we had convos but I wasn’t on those
Cause it just felt we were wasting time
I tried to work out how I feel
When you went away
But now my heart is filled with grief
I wanted you to stay
That’s real love
Between you and I it’s unconditional
That’s real love
Here everyday like it’s a ritual
That’s real love
It’s explicit not subliminal
That’s real love
Feel it physical though it’s spiritual
You didn’t just need help with your food
You needed help with the toilet
Something I wish I avoided
But I was appointed
Our relationship meant patience with you
Taking shits
I didn’t wanna spoil it
Piss on it or destroy it, but know that my heart’s with you despite any turmoil
Now I’m looking at your deathbed
And regrets sent me right to repentance
The strength that you left must be represented
Cause the sentence that you mentioned right at your ending
Has made me remember to warn off the storms and fight off the tempests...
While you laid in the bed, and I held your hand
Last thing that you said, AY son it’s time to be a man..
Yeah I know about loss and I know at what cost
Good grief who said grief’s good cause I know that it’s not...
Good Grief who said grief’s good cause I know that it’s not...
I didn’t wanna lose you
But now I’ve gotta choose love
I didn’t wanna fall apart
But you’re always in my heart
That’s real love
Between you and I it’s unconditional
That’s real love
Here everyday like it’s a ritual
That’s real love
It’s explicit not subliminal
That’s real love
Feel it physical though it’s spiritual

For the full immersive feel you can close your eyes but you don’t need to
Tryna, find a, place to catch my Zen
Tryna, find a, place to recommend
I rap for nothing but to put these words
And I may not rap for ever so please just enjoy it while it happens
‘Cause through all the chitter chatter I know my mind is truly scattered
Tryna find my Zen, cause I know that’s what really matters
So I still pray most days and sometimes meditate
But there’s times that my mind really wants to devastate
But avoid the noise, stay around the sounds man, then you will elevate
And whatever your Zen is, I hope that this resonates
I know I know
I know I know
I know I know
I know I know
There’s power in imagery
Use this as a space to sit and see
So no more bars or soliloquy
Envisage a place where you’re living free
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
Let's dispel the mysticism
Just think, what’s best for you to live in
See it believe it affirm it
And then you will be set to live it
Zen

Check you out
First drop of the year Energy, then Zen
What’s next, “namaste”?
Ha, not quite PO, but you know I’m onto something
Cause I understand and empathise with loss, confusion
Money problems, identity crisis and feeling like you’ve had enough of it all.
But stand up tall and give attention to your 5 pillars;
Physical self
Financial self
Mental self
Emotional self
And Spiritual self
You’ll find ways of approaching each pillar
But we’ve made an offering of a holistic approach
Simplistic with flows addictive for growth
As soon as you’ve dipped in your toes
This is something that’s helped me understand my own mental health and well being
And well seeing as these things have become big buzz words
We cut through all the bullshit
SPOKE
S P O K E
And we done even do transcendental meditation, yet
Our sounds do the hard work so you ain’t got to break a, sweat
We don’t have the answers but can help reshape some of your questions
Which can really be a blessed thing
And I’ve gotta tell 'em this.
Whatever your level is
Whether avid meditator, think it’s all woowoo
Or lightly thinking about a therapist,
SPOKE is your new home for you to start centring
Download SPOKE via spoke.world
Or follow us @spoke.world
And you’ll gain access to music with a purpose.
Mindfulness led by artists, empowered by science and proven concepts.
No nonsense.
Take time, yiiiah

Yo, I ain’t got a piece with me
But my chieftaincy
That is comin out of east you see
Yeah, recently had my feet on streets
Cause the groundwork’s key
But it’s time to break free
Fuck what they say though
Imma do better
Whatever the weather
No matter the pressure
The heart in my chest
That’s the real treasure
For all my endeavours
They can’t beat my efforts
Never, Nah
Cause I’m done with taking it easy
I don’t do this to make you believe me
I don't do this to put you beneath them
I do this so in my soul I move freely
It’s why not matter their words they can’t beat me
It’s why when they look in my eyes they can’t cheat me
And when they try bringing me down they can’t keep me there
Oohhh
Oh nah nah nah nah nah
Oh Ohh
Oohhh
Oh nah nah nah nah nah
Oh Ohh

I am young black gifted it’s
So damn ridiculous
See what the difference is
We stay so meticulous
Tryna stay uplifted in this
Weird system we’re livin in
London born and raised so I’m still one of Britain’s kids
But tryna see the rest of the world I want the bigger fish
We’re wilin’ on this island if we think this is all living is
Love yourself and treat yourself don’t forget what the mission is
But eff all the stuff that you buy I wanna know your spirits lit
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
100 million
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
100 million
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?

Can you feel it?
Nature does not hurry, yet all things are accomplished
