about

About the stress induced by the modern societies, about people feeling pressure to be one person that is expected to be. Injonction to calm down, relax, and take a moment to breathe and live...

lyrics

[Notabene]
“Electrophazz, Real music for the soul”

Forget the pain; forget the struggle the grief,
Won’t you relax and try to roll with the breeze,
Come on this journey with us,
Sit back and take a moment to breathe,
Now come along and come aboard, I am your commodore,
We bout to entertain ya cuz’ you look like you’re kinda bored,
We bring it to you life and we bring it to you right,
Remember ELECTROPHAZZ is that music you adore...

[Chorus] (x2)
Ain’t gon’ waste my time,
Ain’t gon’ hang around,
Just gon’ leave and be fine,
Live my life

[Celia]
Wake up and I’m late again, no time to put my makeup on,
It’s always the same thing,
Walking up the avenue, I’m lost and I don’t have a clue,
I’m going insane as they say :
“Go!” I guess I should go,
“Stay!” nobody knows,
I feel like the sky is falling down on me,
I’m not what you’re expecting me to be.
Just breathe...

[Chorus] (x2)

[Celia]
Gotta make it home,
Another day but still the same song,
Why waste my time?
Gotta chase stress, take a deep breath,
And I feel lighter somehow.
Everything is bright and blue,
And there’s nothing anyone can say or do,
I know I can be strong,
I know better days will come
And I’m sure that I’ll be alright
Just breathe...

[Notabene]
I'm stuck in a rut that I can't Interrupt,
I feel like any second now I can erupt,
I can amount to anything; yeah my mom said it,
But what I done with my life so far is upsetting,
I'm a rebel without a cause, a rapper without applause,
I'm rapping because I happen to love it not for the dosh,
Not that I can afford it, there ain't a thing I have hoarded, nuh-huh,
I'm outta cheddar and I can't manage at all,
And I’m getting these calls telling me to keep standing tall
From the same people that's ripping me off...
I guess I’m walking with an X on my chest,
I keep getting tested and the pain that I suppress is not relieving my stress,
Maybe I’m blessed and the best of myself I’ve never expressed,
Maybe I’m destined to address the duress of the oppressed
And my distress is a testament to what I can contest,
Maybe I’ve been Infested with a pest that I’ve let fester,
There’s a light at the end of the tunnel, I have to believe,
I’m a flower that grew from the rubble, I’m bound to achieve,
I got a couple of tricks up my sleeve,
But can you give me just a second to breathe...
