about

"Everyday I am so blessed to be able to live my dream. I don't take a second of it for granted. I couldn't begin to describe some of the highest highs or the lowest depths that this type of life can bring you but I am thankful for every moment I have. Time for some harmony and balance."

lyrics

HOOK
======
I don't wanna make my mind up so
I'm gonna take decisions slow/
everytime I think of all the days I spent
trying to define what my words meant/

and I don't take it for granted friend/
I consider it all time well spent/
as we make our minds up, know///
we give ourselves our self-control///

VERSE
========
I sense/the love building/like it was architecture/
lecture halls/where I recall the fall semester/
Lester Pearson to YWG/ to 5 nights of driving/
to 5 flights for free/

bet you thought I could only produce hip-hop//
wick-step/I list off/genres I criss-cross//Kris-Kross
like my pants were on backwards/these actors/
are athletes picking on rappers/the laughter//

echoing off the bleachers/like speakers/
speak messages to teachers/of who eats first////
////it's the cafeteria of life/
it's that ice water shower/it's the past tense of strife/

think of how I never thought I was in trouble much/
in and out with friends/ like you double up on double dutch
but it never meant more/then when I end tour/
where i can relax amongst friends and never censor/

HOOK
======
I don't wanna make my mind up so
I'm gonna take decisions slow/
everytime I think of all the days I spent
trying to define what my words meant/

and I don't take it for granted friend/
I consider it all time well spent/
as we make our minds up, know///
we give ourselves our self-control///

VERSE
=======
name 5 producers that prepare better/
compare bars/who else can hit the snare clever?/
you got me thinking on mature flows//
i'm like a blueprint of re-invention/the attention/

that i take from a stage LIVE/places me/'ye high/
thinking back to when/i was such a lame guy/
////standing solo by the punch bowl/
knowing inside that he posesses so MUCH soul/

whole//frame gets shook up/
discovering vinyl/with a smile when he FINALLY looks up/
he takes a moment to reflect/////
looks around at all his books/and what it took for him to get/

all these features and slots/now my speakers they knock/
with the vocals of people that keep you in shock//
//and this is all in accordance/with the laws of recordin/
I'm just lost in the moment/lets go!

HOOK
======
I don't wanna make my mind up so
I'm gonna take decisions slow/
everytime I think of all the days I spent
trying to define what my words meant/

and I don't take it for granted friend/
I consider it all time well spent/
as we make our minds up, know///
we give ourselves our self-control///

I am an artist/producer. I produce/score music full-time.

I think these "bio" write ups can make someone sound very pompous and I hate that.
