Humble 03:35
lyrics

I ain’t so humble, The words I mumble ain’t nice (no good). Got me into some trouble, real bad. (But I) Got help though. Straightened up, ain’t so tough, no, Not me And through it all you stay by my side. I been looking for you, so long But you not where I been looking Things I wanna tell you, You oughta watch your step, boy. See where it’s going to take you to. Things I wanna tell you, You oughta watch your step. (hmmm) See where it’s going to take you to. Sometimes I think of things I really shouldn’t say Usually too late (too late) I’ve said ‘em anyway. I tried so hard to get to you, (though you’re) Standing still by my side. I got into trouble, so bad I got help though. Straightened up, I ain’t so tough. Not me… Things I wanna tell you, You oughta watch your step, boy. See where it’s going to take you to. Things I wanna tell you, You oughta watch your step. (hmmm) See where it’s going to take you to.

Ruthlessness 03:50
lyrics

You wanna laugh at me? I’ll just turn around and walk away, Save your smiles and games ‘til someone comes to play another day. Time will come, Actions speak right back at you, And if you ever wonder why, They just do. I’d like to ask, What it is you stand to lose? Try to see a bigger picture from someone else’s shoes. But not mine, You had your chance, And now it’s gone… I wish I didn’t have to be so harsh. Left me no choice but ruthlessness Left me no choice but ruthlessness Left me no choice but ruthlessness Left me no choice but ruthlessness Acting cold, Although my blood it boils inside. Butterflies, they fly, Fluttered by away so long ago. Stick around to Watch you as you fall. Who will be there To catch you even after all? Left me no choice but ruthlessness Left me no choice but ruthlessness Left me no choice but ruthlessness Left me no choice but ruthlessness I can just tell by the way you got me feeling No need to answer – your lies would have me reeling. Anyway it’s all the same, same old ways about you How to go on to doubt you, All the things we know about you are wrong. (All the things we know about you are wrong) Left me no choice but ruthlessness Left me no choice but ruthlessness

Time keeps on moving I just can’t see it Time keeps on moving I just can’t leave it Time on my hands was getting me down You got me here running all over town Time on my hands was getting me down I found myself on your merrygoround First I said I’m gonna leave you But you don’t know why Then you said you don’t believe me And that’s another lie Thought that you might even free me You didn’t even try Now I’m done with all your sweet talk baby I’ve no tears left to cry I could’ve left here many times before Moved out on my own Thought that I would give you one more chance My hearts a heavy loan Time on my hands was getting me down You got me here running all over town Time on my hands was getting me down I found myself on your merrygoround Time keeps on moving I just can’t see it Time keeps on moving I just can’t leave it Some say that I don’t got no feeling When really I don’t care Take time over what you do for me Is that the way to share My mama said Don’t care was made to care That’s how the story goes I’m waiting for the day to prove her wrong But Mama always knows I could’ve left here many times before Moved out on my own Thought that I would give you one more chance My hearts a heavy loan Time on my hands was getting me down You got me here running all over town Time on my hands was getting me down I found myself on your merrygoround Time keeps on moving I just can’t see it Time keeps on moving I just can’t leave it

I think about being with you And then I think about the boys You’d said no more, I had hoped you’d bring me joy. I think about you, too much Does it frighten you? And when I wake up you won’t be there To see me make up my mind – still its bare Since you broke me I didn’t know you had the fear. I think about all the lies we hid behind I won’t go blind You said that I got nothing to say, but I I think about my words Its all because of me that we’re Going nowhere. And my thinking bout the boys Does it frighten you? And when I wake up you won’t be there To see me make up my mind – still its bare Since you broke me I didn’t know you had the fear. I think about being with you And then I think about the noise. I think about the screaming pain, the tears and shame, And I remember so much more. And when I wake up you won’t be there To see me make up my mind – still its bare Since you broke me I didn’t know you had the fear. Oh no no I didn’t know you had the fear, No, I didn’t know you had the fear.

I just wish you took the time to know me better   Hope you weren't waiting for me You know that I been lost like out to see I thought that I mighta called you from there But I didn't count on all the salty air   You know that I'm trying to stick to my own plan I told you I found a new path, it's over land Hey maybe I could've bought you too But I don't think you no good at following the rules   Oh When I get to town Would you be around Just to bring me down Or to share in what I've found When I get to town Would you be around Just to bring me down Or to share in what I've found   Now while you're at home and getting high I took some time to learn to fly I spread my wings just a little bit I'm getting myself quite a lift Now you probably think that I lost my mind But no I just took it for a longer drive I'm just trying to have some fun I want to see how life could be on the run   Oh When I get to town Would you be around Just to bring me down Or to share in what I've found When I get to town Would you be around Just to bring me down Or to share in what I've found   I went up into the skies Little men who told me why Think it was all lies Oceans deep and wide Species that I can't describe All just trying to get by I went up into the skies Little men who told me why Think it was all lies Oceans deep and wide Species that I can't describe Come with me and we could be a better kind   When I get to town Would you be around Just to bring me down Or to share in what I've found When I get to town Would you be around Just to bring me down Or to share in what I've found

Who Is The What? 04:53
lyrics

Making plans for a meeting to forget Resit, revise, retake the test. Try a bit harder to make a mess, Get more time off to take a rest. You know you’re my 2nd favourite Could move you up if you prove your new trick Hasn’t got to be anything special, So long as I can buy it on record baby. (But I wanna know) Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me? How can we 2, make it a 3, Can it be me, oh can it be me? I don’t know why and I don’t know when, Can it be me or should it be them? Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me? Not thinking, words and actions have No meaning, taking course without No feeling, but there will never be A better way… Still speaking? Could be another language I’m hearing Cos you’re going on, without breathing Take a breath, and get some air. (But I wanna know) Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me? How can we 2 make it a 3, Can it be me, oh can it be me? I don’t know why and I don’t know when, Can it be me or should it be them? Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me? (Oh oh oh ooh) Coulda, shoulda, been me, (Oh oh oh ooh) Gotta gotta be me yeah (Oh oh oh ooh) Coulda, shoulda, been me, (Oh oh oh ooh) Gotta gotta be me yeah (I can’t believe) Wish it coulda been me (Oh oh oh ooh oh) Just like a Sunday, time moves so slow. Can’t even getaway, a risk, a kiss, miss the show To take a leaf from your book Means catching a baited hook To catch a poke in the dark Means risking your bleeding heart. (But I wanna know) Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me? How can we 2 make it a 3, Can it be me, oh can it be me? I don’t know why and I don’t know when, Can it be me or should it be them? Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me? Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me? How can we 2 make it a 3, Can it be me, oh can it be me? I don’t know why and I don’t know when, Can it be me or should it be them? Who is the what and what is the he? Can it be me, oh can it be me?

4 O'clock in the morning and I can't get back to sleep It's kind of hard with you baby cos you make me weep, soul deep Trying hard not to think much of you, of you But my mind walks no place else My mind walks no place else   It's got much too quiet without you here with me I can't stand no noise Its dark where I can't see   Was it because I said Go And don't come back Cos I can't live with you on my back Yes I said Go But don't think I mean it though Cos I already miss you and always will keep one eye one the door   5 O'clock when you're still not in I breathe so deep my patience wearing thin What would you say to ease me My mind going round Go a long way to please me, you should Take the time out to reach me, you could But you know I've got to believe   It's got much too quiet without you here with me I can't stand no noise Its dark where I can't see   Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh   6 O'clock I thought you maybe Didn't want to be with me Didn't think you'd be gone this long Even though I made you leave Dialling numbers seems to phase you Could try some telepathic ways too I know I could but I wouldn't get through   It's got much too quiet without you here with me I can't stand no noise Its dark where I can't see   Was it because I said Go And don't come back Cos I can't live with you on my back Yes I said Go But don't think I mean it though Cos I already miss you will always keep one eye one the door   Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

I play with your eyes by moving feet You admire my toenails, ever so discreet I keep on watching you but I pretend not to If you catch my eye, I gotta give you a smile   Train girl, these silly games, silly games, train girl Train girl, these silly games, silly games, train girl   I like your necklace, it's got a delicate shine The way it sits on your collar bone, girl, you know I wish it were mine And the guy beside you, mmm, you did good You know I wish that he was mine too And is he watching what you're watching when I'm watching while I'm watching you I hope so I hope you don't mind   Train girl, these silly games, silly games, train girl Train girl, these silly games, silly games, train girl   And your style it's easy Your poise is so demure I think I kinda like it Cos it makes you seem mature And most of all It gives me something to focus on So train girl, watching you can't be wrong   Train girl, these silly games, silly games, train girl Train girl, these silly games, silly games, train girl

Summer Stories 05:26
lyrics

It’s been a long, long time, Since when I knew this boy. He said he’d come alive each night without his toys. Not trying to understand, I said he’s crazy, crazy, crazy. Still he stood his ground, Never ceased to amaze me. I won’t try to change the story, I could never be involved. But I remember these times, from way behind. It’s only summertime, It’s only summertime, It’s only summertime, summertime. This man I knew not so much long ago, Reminds me of you so much I cried To be taken back to the empty home, Where I wait for you, (for you), for you, (for you), for you, (for you). I won’t try to change the story, I could never be involved. But I remember these times, from way behind. It’s only summertime, It’s only summertime, It’s only summertime, summertime. Some place in time I met a girl so kind. She showed me how she lived I tried to take her mind But a life so pure, could never stay this way. Don’t open doors to avoid starting over again. There is a woman I’ve seen who made it seem so clear. I watched her run through bad times like she felt no fear. To breathe in for her If I only live longer to see how her story grows It grows and grows. I won’t try to change the story, I could never be involved. But I remember these times, from way behind. It’s only summertime. Its only summertime, Its only summertime, summertime. It’s only summertime, summertime, summertime, summertime, It’s only summertime, summertime, whoa oh oh ohohoh ohh It’s only summertime, summertime, summertime, summertime It’s only summertime, summertime, whoa oh oh ohohoh ohh

Neech Paris, France

East London chanteuse and songwriter Neech grew up with the sounds of reggae, hi-life and soul divas at home, indie music at school and hip hop in clubs, combined all with an abstract blend of old-school soul, blues and electronica to create her own style.
The ensuing sound invites you into darker territories and tells of intimate secrets with a warmth and originality that’s impossible to ignore. ... more
