about

This is the beginning of the journey: a slow and deep uprooting

"The first song, simply titled Blues, is a more psychedelic, dubwise take on dark Amy Winehouse soul that draws a line straight back to Nina Simone." (Delarue - in New york music daily)

lyrics

Am I lost in the world?
I go away to the beautiful world
I leave my father, I leave my mother,
I leave my sister and I leave my brother

I went away from my baby’s home, maybe I was wrong?
But it’s too late, now it’s too late, gotta be strong and follow the fate
I listen to coïncidences in order to know the way
And I feel a light inside each day

I went away from my goldie jail, now I’m on the run
And it’s too late, now it’s too late, to go back inside the prison of the past
I listen to breathing solitude in order to know the way
And I feel a presence everywhere

I went away from boxes for fame, no one knows my name
And it’s too late, now it’s too late, to care about society says
I listen to the lovely life to show me the way
And I feel it’s written anyway
