The ugliest things happen to the prettiest girls I guess you cant have everything in this world Blessing and a curse it's so unfair Seems like love would be everywhere But your staring through a smoke screen, fill your lungs Intoxicate your judgment, you found the one The wrong one Mesmerized by your beauty But the world he in is ugly So he sets out cruelly to darken your light Dimmen your smile Subconsciously maybe, but all of the while Killing a soul that once was so free Now yourself you're imprisoning behind those walls To protect your heart Feel like everything that there is but smart And it follows you, it follows you *Hook* Blessing or a curse Blessing or a curse Verse: Rash decisions fueled by emotions Then immediately second guessing Pray the hope you had wasn't a curse but a blessing But you can't help but feel like you've been through this before Can't help but feel like you know what's in store but You don't wanna drag your baggage from the last flight Conflicting thoughts put up a fight You fight and fight and fight and fight and fight and fight yourself You just wanna be happy, why cant you be happy Sucked into the sadness of the world, why don't you deserve Why aren't you good enough, for love? *Hook*

Need 03:38
Verse: Sayin' all of us are the same Mindsets formed from the pain Well baby I can tell you I'm a different breed What I gotta do to make you trust me Reduced to "Fuck Bitches, Get Money" But tell me is your heart really beating I only got one question for you If I walked on water would you trust me Hook: I can give you what you need [x6] Verse: I can be the one to change your thinking I can be the one to give you life I can be the one to make you love me You just gotta say yes to the ride We all need love We all been hurt Just say yes to love one more time I only got one question for you If I walk on water would that make you mine? *hook* Verse: Dread headed Medusa Turned your heart to stone, light brown eyes You thought you saw the light in 'em She lured you in with that evil smile So when I smile at you, you relive the hurt, time travel to past but just take my hand and be free at last, free at last God all mighty you free at last 'Cuz I love you like the stars love the moon And i'll never say that i'll see you soon 'Cuz I see you always even when your gone In my dreams you live, in my heart I long to love you To touch you To warm you To hold you

Find You 03:02
Verse No Navigation my magnetic north draws me to you but you disappeared Now I don't know what to do with myself Eyes caught in headlights they're blinding than ever You made me surrender to you But I never knew If you left that you'd take a piece of me with you Now I'm sitting here like damn. Damn damn, what the hell am I gon' do without my man Hook: (Now your gone and I'm lost without you here now) Been around the world and I I I, I cant find my baby Been around the world and I I I, I cant find my baby Been around the world and I I I, I cant find my baby Been around the world and I I I, I cant find my baby I don't know and I don't know why, why he's gone away And I don't know where he can be, my baby But i'm gonna find him, yeah (Now your gone and i'm lost without you here now) Verse: Our bed was like a vast ocean Separating two nations I was sick of your bullshit You were losing your patience You stormed out and yelled "Fuck you" I'm thinking it's just the same shit But it's different this time it's the last round I hit below the belt, you knock me out Up late night no phone calls Hoping that soon you'll be homebound But the days and days pass and you aint here We yelled so much that we couldn't hear The love in our screams so you left me Blind to your pain, so I couldn't see A vision of you ever throwing us away How much for your love baby i'll pay I'll go broke just to have another day I cant wake up and not see your face But your gone, your gone away I'm alone, I'm so lonely Yeah your gone, your gone away But i'm gonna find my baby (Now your gone and I'm lost without you here now) I've been around the world and I I I, I cant find my baby I cant find my baby No no Been round the world and I I I, I cant find my baby I don't know and I don't know why, why he's gone away And I don't know where he can be My baby, my baby

Wine Tip 05:00
Hook: Mary is a bad bitch Got damn, Mary is a bad bitch Got damn, Mary is a bad bitch Gotta love a bad bitch Mary is a bad bitch Got damn, Mary is a bad bitch Got damn, Mary is a bad bitch Gotta love a bad bitch Bad bitch yeah Verse: Wine Tips, as my my mind drips Time slips with, thoughts of reminisce The nemesis, the divine of the genesis Splattered bits celebrate the last of such a bliss Slow it down Purple dreams and numbness resurface within the fungus Psycho abundance Come fuck with, the young dreamers The young schemers, rolling with misdemeanors Disappointing the preachers Wishing we could be cleaner, but fuck that Misguided youth Tryna get higher to the truth Wishing someone would show me proof Until then you wont see me in a pew 'Cuz I aint got nothing to lose I wasn't put on this earth to walk in your shoes Believe me, imma do me With or without you, it don't make a difference *Hook* Verse: Blacks and swishes Takin' me back to all my wishes I just wish I could forget this I'm on a hit list, tryna sip on my, my wine tips real quick Before I quit runnin lips He said "How bout you show me some affection with them hips" I said "Right after you show me some affection with your lips" My whole team still greatly denominated We scream fuck 'em all for they are all hated Persuaded all my enemies to love and now i'm straight greatness Ask my whole team I'm nothing but gracious But say the wrong thing and you might have to face this Roll it up and face it Roll it up and face it *Hook*

Believe In 04:14
Verse: Don't wanna live forever Don't wanna die young But when my time comes, want them to say I was the one I guess I do wanna live forever But in a different sense Want my music to give pleasure; generations future tense be a living legend even when my soul go wanna touch the world wanna let my soul glow Be a transgressor breaking all the boundaries Decloud the minds of the ones who are in disbelief Hook: We all gotta believe in something Why not start with yourself, take a breather, and just go [x2] Verse: Speak it into existence Do more than just existing 'Cuz you aint really livin' Why not go out and get it I been tryna get my spirit right lately 'Cuz the ground beneath my feet startin' to feel unstably But I'm still walkin' forward, still hold my head high Guess I gotta take flight if I wanna touch the sky But the sky's not my limit, to infinity and beyond that Buzz lightyears past my time, I'm aristocratic Climatic and I'm almost at my peak I'm a scheming schematic and aint nobody stopping me 'Cuz I believe in the magic of my mind so to speak I don't entertain drama keep them vibes away from me But I do believe in karma, sow what I wanna reap Take a rest when I need it but I never oversleep 'Cuz it's work to be done and that's never gonna change I'm a slave to my ethic but I love it so i'm chained Self-proclaimed I'm the greatest of my time But there's still room for progression I'm not even in my prime yet Still dripping blood and sweat Perfecting my craft and imma come harder than anyone they'll never forget I've been a threat since amniotic fluids Thought you had the game locked, those were just delusions Holy ghost using my pen for this, Hallelujah I'm the best to ever do it ever did it imma prove it *Hook*

Hook: There's so much more to talk about than me How relevant am I when the world I love is on fire What's done in dark will come to light and we will see Just how much truth were lies and deceit Verse: Riots and rallies Fire burns the valley Anger silenced the happy Now, where are we? Broken windows, stolen TV's Bad intentions roaming the streets Let the devil in for a just cause But what's the cost of causing all this chaos Would you burn the pillow you lay your head on before you go to sleep? But you would burn the village your family grew and grass under your child's feet? Misplaced rage is all the rage in our community But we ain't hurting nobody but the ones that look like you and me Hook: There's so much more to talk about than me How relevant am I when the world I love is on fire

Who I am 02:49
Verse: Ok I'm tired of writing 'bout love 'cuz I don't feel it no Took some time for myself, doing some heeling yo Cuz I felt the passion leaving Getting colder, breath was syncing to the rhythm of normality But I aint normal though I thought about just doing nine to five's all my life Letting doubt fill my mind with lies, roll the dice What's the outcome? How come I rely on probabilities to tell me who the fuck I am and who the fuck I'm gonna be But, hold up wait a minute fuck dat It's so easy to fall in line and not push back That's what separates exceptions from the sheep So I weep for the ones who follow blueprints and be walkin' while they sleep But I can't say that I wasn't on my way Almost gave up on my dreams, started living day to day Just to make it to the weekend, the fuck was I thinking? Reduce my life to mediocrity and binge drinking And I don't even like liquor Just like the feeling of temporary happiness them bottomless bottles give me Numbing my mind from thinking cuz deep down I know what's really going on with me Can't face the reality that I almost chose just to let it all go Shut the blinds to my light and not let my flower grow Put a hold on progression Used to be my obsession Glad I got back to the plan Got myself to understand who I am Who I am Who I am What am I to do with this light That grows inside of me Should I let it glow or should I go or What do I mean? What am I to do with this ight That shines inside of me Should I let it glow or should I go or What do I mean?

Verse: Flipping through the pages of the book I write my songs in It's coming to an end I gotta find a way to extend Or maybe I should let it go, open a new chapter in life Cuz how can you move forward when you cling to your past strife? It's funny when I suddenly have epiphanies That light bulb burns bright like "Got damn, you got it Tiffani!" Searching for the answers when it's in me Turning deaf's ear to my soul I wasn't listening Well turn the volume up I want the whole world to hear I wanna hear it loud and clear Make them sound waves appear Turn audible fantasies into visual realities The power's in your hands How can I make you overstand that you're greater than you think All you gotta do is think My subconscious said to me as I write it down in ink So I could look back and reflect, get my mind and soul in sync Now I sit back and relax as I listen to this beat go Verse: Why is it I feel the most ingenious when the night falls The daylight seems to blind me, the darkness brings clarity I answered my own question, now you see what i'm talkin' bout? You know one thing I hate? Niggas askin' for handouts Switching subjects here, but I think this should be talked about Why is it that they owe you every time you get in a drought? The only thing you're entitled to is death So why you out here tryna live through another mans breath Tryna live through another mans breath Tryna live through another mans breath Just let that sink in Verse: And to my ladies how believe that a fat ass and weave makes you beautiful Then for a man you may be suitable But really you're living in a mindset that makes you usable You gotta love you for who you are, it's not disputable If you live off a man's compliments then you'll die from his criticism Learn to validate yourself make that the mission Make that decision Learn to see you in a whole new vision And to never let a man create for you a definition And I'll drop that subject right there Let it sink into your mind Let it soak into your body Let you feel it in your soul Because that's the holy trinity And a lot of us are sick, love of self is the remedy I'm bringing you the ministry All you gotta do is follow it, stop putting off progression talkin' that maybe tomorrow shit. All that pride you need to swallow it, stop putting off progression talkin' that maybe tomorrow shit.

about

This highly anticipated project will take the listener on a journey through the soul of Yoko. Exploring the joys, the woes, and the passions which sometimes coincides, and sometimes contradicts-embodying the true nature of a Gemini.

The contrast of sounds ranging from ambient and soulful melodies to eye opening raps takes your ears on a pleasuring rollercoaster of consciousness, and when the tracks come to an end and the handle bars rise, when you open your eyes… you will then see the world through the eyes of a Gemini…. Anticipate it.

I would first like to thank the entire WAR crew and especially Jay Alii for always being there, putting in those long hours to make this become a reality, and believing in this as much as I do. You are appreciated

I'd like to thank my mom for always encouraging me to keep pushing and to keep believing, believing in me more sometimes than I did myself. You are loved.

And finally I want to thank my fans who have been there since day one and I would like to thank the new fans for taking time to listen to my art.

Thank you to everyone, Enjoy the EP, and expect so much more to come.
