lyrics

Violet Honeydew

Hook
Violet honeydew in the morning.
Coming over you without warning.
Something's telling me that you want it, and
I'mma give it to you like never before.
Open wide, let me taste your flower.
Nectar so good, I devour.
I can taste your honeydew for hours.
Keep it coming, baby, and I'll hunger for more.

Verse
...the sunlight's creeping in...
...I watch you as you sleep soundly.
Against the glow your skin's glistening.
...you turn to wrap your arms around me.

...I descend as you push me down,
planting sweet kisses as I journey there.
"X" marks the spot as you make that sound,
and I won't stop digging 'til you tell me where.

Hook

...having trouble breathing, babe?
I don't think you need to worry.
...I come equipped with a first aid
kit, resuscitating you in a hurry.

I fight against the waves in your ocean,
and I'm getting pulled deeper in your undertow.
Then we drown and drift in slow motion...
...as we drip sweet dew in the morning's glow.

Hook

Bridge
Butter-
1 fly, take me
2 high. Spread your
3 wings and open
4 wide. Love re-
5 vealed by the
6 sun, as the two of
7 us become
8 one. (I've arrived, baby, won't you
come)

This 5th solo effort just may be Substantial's best project to date. It features many notable singles, including "Ghost In A Cell", featuring myself and Malcolm Jackson. Thank me now. Stephanie Gayle

Deffinitions Vol. 4
by Tonedeff

This 4th instrumental project is the first in the series to include all new original tracks, and the sound of each varies in style and delivery. It's lush and further solidifies Tone's talent. Stephanie Gayle

Jay-Z did say that "30's the new 20", and SoSoon embodies that sentiment. Bars on bars on...you get me. This proud Queens native delivers and does not disappoint. Stephanie Gayle
