you got fire pour it out
don’t you fall asleep on nothing
cause you got too much heart for bluffing
cold fighting
temporary lack of feeling
vultures flying over
and these nights getting colder
like so violent
I think I forgot how easy love's supposed to hold ya
and wrap you all over
careful not to burn
all your roses I left
got cut by the thorns
say you won’t hold your breath for me anymore
cause that talk is all over love
some new drugs
right in my hands
I don’t feel numb
I don’t understand
how good baby, I don’t need to
be so upset we could breeze through
but all we do is jump in fire
and I can feel it coming round
yeah I don’t trust myself no more
but all that’s gone when your around
borderline
yeah babe we’re feeling borderline
and I ain’t seen those blue eyes in so
borderline
yeah babe we’re feeling borderline
and I ain’t seen those blue eyes in so long
careful not to burn
all your roses I left
got cut by the thorns
say you won’t hold your breath for me anymore
cause that talk is all over love.
If you've been looking to listen to Dessa Chimes is a good entry point. Well crafted hip-hop sounds with even better written lyrics. Dessa is just too strong an artist to ignore. Vivian Nelson

The last 5 years I've rolled around in what I call Doomtree creative silk sonic hugs, I've been inspired to produce, mix and sometimes driven to emotional tears at how amazing their music is. "Dear echo" is no exception. The moment Cecil throws down the female vocal sample in 'Beauty' is perfect. I actually get lumps in my throat sometimes when I listen.
Real poetry and music created for true feeling, not just to hit the charts. When I discuss music and people use "rap" to describe the deteriorating popular music scene, I correct them with music like this. Jonathan Malkin
