Daydream 03:12
Fading Into the light Into myself Into the night Stay here, No more despite I wanna stay here Till I'm turning bright Daydreaming Keeps me alive Sharps all my senses Helps me survive Melting Into the light Into the water Into the white Something about this makes me Follow my insanity I know what I got to bring to the table Gravity can't pull me in No matter what I do I win I know what I got to Bring to the table I'm shaking off my - I thought that I should let you know - That I'm shaking off my - Shaking off my ego Diving, Into a dream, Into a river, Into the gleam I'll stay here, I'll let it shine I'll catch the horizon Then I'll be fine Something about this makes me Follow my insanity I know what I got to Bring to the table Gravity can't pull me in No matter what I do I win Now I know what I got to Bring to the table Hey ey ey ey ey ey Daydreaming all day-ay I might touch the moon when I am high enough Imma run till they notice me, I'll make em see how things really got to be Yeah, what do they think they see? If I join them I lose a part of me, I guess I got what they need What they need, what they need Who cares what they need? Do I live for them or do I live for me? I rather be daydreaming

Game No Mo 03:07
I can never know Who I’ll meet around the block Occasionally So I might as well Watch my step when I walk Carefully Heat, it hits my face I can’t breath. but I never could, Apparently Blank, now I can’t see anything Apart from him I hate this thing I never thought it would be easy, but I don’t wanna play this game no more No one said it would be easy, but I dont wanna play this game no more Love, I could give you anything But you don’t want none, That’s too bad. Think, but don’t think too much You might lose And I’ll take him instead I’ll take him instead I never thought it would be easy, but I don’t wanna play this game no more No one said it would be easy, but I dont wanna play this game no more

I always look for love But I get in trouble instead And when you put it like that, I see trouble ahead I should’ve listened to my body Just like you said Don’t know what you did But I hear a voice in my head Blurry colors won’t let me get out of my bed, Get out of my bed, get out of my bed If I close my eyes, Would it help me reset my mind? Maybe I can meet someone Who’ll help me rewind? There must be a way to contain me, I am not blind. Is it so hard to find? Is it so hard to find? I’m not ready to leave my emotions behind My emotions behind, emotions behind Help me reset my mind, Emotions behind, emotions behind Blurry colors won’t let me get out of my bed Get out of my bed, I’ll get out of my bed.

What a relief, I can’t believe that it took so long I like new things, Even them things I used to think were wrong Now I can see, I was just scared of being alone I understand, It’s all in my hands, I could easily make a safe land, Fall on a sand, Be where I chose to be Make a new plan, Zero demands, be who I chose to be (Maybe I was trippin’) I was born last night, felt the speed of light, I was free alright, I was feeling’ tight, What a delight. I was born last night, I was on a flight To another star, I was seeing bright, Feeling like a kite. (Floating in space) Never felt so deep inside Feeling’ tight, doin’ alright, what a delight, What a delight. Never felt so deep inside, Felt the speed of light, I’m on a flight to another star, I was born last night I’m going deep, cause I wanna keep myself from fallin’ in, Locking my knees, Im bigger than this, I’ll pull up my chin. Straighten my back, No one could tell, but I was losing it losing it Went down the stairs, Felt so aware, Maybe I had too much I didnt care, was gonna stare 'Till I came in touch with everything, everything, Everything… (Maybe I was trippin’) I was born last night, felt the speed of light, I was free alright, I was feeling’ tight, What a delight. I was born last night, I was on a flight To another star, I was seeing bright, Feeling like a kite. (Floating in space) Never felt so deep inside Feeling’ tight, doin’ alright, what a delight, What a delight. Never felt so deep inside, Felt the speed of light, I’m on a flight to another star, I was born last night

What If 03:15
Is this a dream, Am I awake? What am I feeling? Is this a dream? Is this for real, Is this a mistake? What am I feeling, Is this all fake? What If I run away? Will you forget me? What If I rather stay In this dream forever?

about

"This EP is about a process; a search for love, a search for self-acceptance. It's about overcoming your fears and all the lessons you learn as a young artist living in the city... I want people to identify, feel the story. I wish they'd listen to it while they drive, while they dance, while they're trippin, while they're sad, while they're happy..." - Jenny Penkin

״We made this music for the ears of groovy psychedelic funky dreamy music lovers, with vinyl drum samples from my living room and vibes from space and time"
- Aviv Cohen (Sol Monk)
