lyrics
[Verse 1 - Young]
So what's good my brothers? 'Bout time we get back
Pick up where we left off and bless this track
Yo Define and Ilbril, it's been too long
But you know I keep you both close everytime I pen a song down
So fill me in, where you've guys been?
It's been quite a while since Psykes was last seen
On stages moving crowds, yeah we were fire
I rep Psykes whenever; It's my Love.Soul.Desire
Believe me the ink in my pen never flowed the same way
Pre-show excitement never felt the same way
For real, but it's cool, we still a crew
But it feels kinda empty rockin' stages without you two
And I know this may never be permanant
But let's ride once again and resurrect the moments
of the days back in '06 before we lose it
But above all it's always brothers before music. Cool...
[Chorus]
Yeah this feel good like the colours of the rainbow...
And let it fill the sky Psykes is back so let's fly...
[Vrse 2 - Ilbril]
Let me re-ignite the flame that was once blazin
A fiery flame kept inside deeply burning
The one torch that provided us with the only light
Psykes was never gone, better get your facts right
I know, it's been a while since we last spit
Trashin up the stage like as though it was a mosh pit
Leavin the mic but you know I'll never drop it
I took some time off so I can loosen up my spirit
Ilbril, Young & Define we'll never drift apart
Cause I know that we be under a one heart
An open door that can never be shut
Ilbril will never leave it alone
You knew that from the start
So let us relieve the moments together
like back in '06; the past, present, future
The broken structure shall be made stronger
Let's close up the gap and do this my brothers...
[Chorus]
[Verse 3 - Define]
Mr Young be asking ‘where u at, where u at?’
Define’s not hibernating still ready for an attack
Took my rhymebook off the shelf & wipe the dust a lil
Still feeling my pen while jotting down a few scribbles
The reason for my absence I dono where to start
Cus I was dealing with complicating matters of the heart
Now I promise myself not to let priorities clash
Definitely Psykes still be rising from the ashes
Still rocking mics like we the lyrical cannibals
Rage to the beat with the rise of every decibel
With XS, militants with a mission
Move like a phantom scoping u with our night vision
There comes a time im’ma hang the mic up
But we’ll take it down one day to show i’ve never given up
There comes a time we gona hang the mic up
But we’ll take it down one day to show we’ve never given up
[Chorus x 3]
