about
Second core single off "Songs About V". This is a song about lovemaking, plain and simple.
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
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
supported by 10 fans who also own “Violet Honeydew (Album Version)”
This album was innovative and influential at the time of it's release... None of us had heard anything as polite and well presented as Substantial in the hiphop scene. It was genius. cporter399
