Straight through Be true You'll find Staring at you What you deny. Don't prove The future, Defy. Stay here and be My sunlight. Although the reasons For my war within they need no special mention Just that I live for All the superficial art conventions Stay away from me Let the smarting be Lay your guns on me Fire away And you'll see Straight through Be true You'll find Staring at you What you deny. Don't prove The future, Defy. Stay here and be My sunlight. You do enough for me but I may need a little fake attention Could I believe that you've been wronged by me, when I can see no tension. Stay away from me Let the smarting be Lay your guns on me Fire away And you'll see Straight through Be true You'll find Staring at you What you deny. Don't prove The future, Defy. Stay here and be My sunlight. I don't know if I can be the same for you Trading blows among the fires of staying true. You may go, and I can wait. It's fate. It's you it's me, but it's me before you

Locked Away 05:31
Head out for me, And bring back all the shit I never need, I plead. We're locked away It isn't new, my boss should pay be more, Indeed. There's a virus scare, And men should breathe alone at home they say, oh please. And we prepare, Just like the end of times, and if we're here, we'll see. We survive this, And shit may never change, Seems like months of shade I won't survive without my bribe. (Come on now) We can't Stay home Just save me from the vain. Give us blunts or blades For my veins or for my pains (You better)⠀ Stand up to see, There is no shame to aim for easy ways, Some days. And while we're free, Can I be true to you, it's here to stay. I'd say. We survive this, And shit may never change, Seems like months of shade I won't survive without my bribe. (Come on now) We can't Stay home Just save me from the vain. Give us blunts or blades For my veins or for my pains (You better) Now that I can see it, I believe Life was never meant to be This way now. If I get to be it, I will be, Better than the memory Of my time. And I may never get to figure out What is right or wrong for me?

Yes, we're here And all the roads That I believed Would lead somewhere. Have brought me Back to stay within The realm of conscious Self aware. So I surround The latter part Of battered, broken Piece of mine. With all the dates the app do find As the radius Appears. And you were only time and miles away. (From me) Staying up and fighting to break free. (For me) And I was wondering that love just ain't (For me) Sharing blunts in post gig harmony, you see. You heard of her ? She keeps me styled and that's a start. You ever heard of her ? Keeps my sanity intact. You ever heard of her ? You may she smiles a lot. And she's the Miles to every Coltrane dream of mine. So, we're here I heard them say "That miles is just a distance game, and They belong alone I fear So, put a heart On 'gram for cheer" But we surround The better part of Of stranded, wasted Dreams of ours. With all the love our heart could find And Hank is Just to prove it all. And you were only time and miles away. (From me) Staying up and fighting to break free. (For me) And I was wondering that love just ain't (For me) Sharing blunts in post gig harmony, you see.

Engels, Marx and Bourgeoisie Gonna rise up from their graves I feel And they shall take control and set you free Or maybe treat you all like 'The Great Stalin' Nationalism, pride of the local. We must find our Antoinette though. Boston tea party, we weren't invited. our tea would start a revolution. Sorting my history, reading from journals Robert Clive was trying to help us. Brown were Savages, gora knew better Charles the first was just an aberration. I diss religion and my leaders coz I can, It is the opium of masses, but I love crack. My daddy made enough, and I don't need no cash. But I must keep my hobby going when I can Coz I'm a Capitalist Musician In a left leaning avatar. Drop your books And hear me out As I read from the Kapital. You control the means and greens So you pay me for the big show. And I will serve the poor again, From my left handed Deutsch car. State departments, private apartments Liberalizing all that we know. Decolonizing. Back to the jungle. Sam isn't our favourite uncle ? Enemies closer, our friendship is over. Don't bite the hand that's trying to feed you. Learning from all the UN big bosses Getting the good stuff and smoking alone too. I diss the future and the moment that we spend It is the only way to deal with Mum and dad My daddy made enough, and I don't need no cash But I must keep my hobby going when I can Coz I'm a Capitalist Musician In a left leaning avatar. Drop your books And hear me out As I read from the Kapital. You control the means and greens So you pay me for the big show And I will serve the poor again, From my left handed, Deutsch car. Engels, Marx and Bourgeoisie Gonna rise up from their graves I feel And they shall take control and set you free Or maybe treat you all like The Great Stalin I diss religion and my leaders coz I can, It is the opium of masses, but I love crack. My daddy made enough, and I don't need no cash. But I must keep my hobby going when I can Coz I'm a Capitalist Musician In a left leaning avatar. Drop your books And hear me out As I read from the Kapital. You control the means and greens So you pay me for the big show. And I will serve the poor again, From my left handed Deutsch car.

about

The title song from the album dissects the pseudo intellectual aspects that emanate from our work and tries to unearth some latent intentions behind the music/art we put out. The idea of selling yourself with a left leaning avatar acting as a mask, as an act put on to garner attention from either side of the socio-political spectrum is what's brought forth through the tune.

The rest of the album has it's fair share of sonic explorations, ranging from Funk to Jazz Fusion, with tunes that have Chezin and Vrnda crooning away, while there's a killer jazz rock solo by one of our favourite guitar players in the country, Siddharth Gautam, smartly placed in the middle of the album, waiting to be devoured by our fans from the earlier albums, with the rest of the band being the most free we've been musically, here's presenting
'Capitalist Musician with a Left-Leaning Avatar'.
