about

On their latest single, DMV rapper T.Lucas takes you on a walk down memory lane as he recalls a failed relationship over a mellow groove produced by Jazzy Lofi Hip-Hop veteran, Substantial. Stephanie Gayle infuses the song with lush R&B vocals over subdued keys and live bass guitar by Malik Hunter (Black Milk, Tall Black Guy).

T.Lucas and Substantial's EP, 'Dirty Sneakers' drops in late Spring. The EP is five tracks produced by Substantial with verses by T.Lucas including features by DJ RBI, JDA and soul vocalist, Stephanie Gayle.

lyrics

My hearts frigid, cold outside, minus 2 degrees
A warm fireplace. Eatin’ crackers with the some Gouda cheese
Thinking bout memories of a fonder time
I played it on rewind, soon as you palmed your wine
I said I love you… but right now I’m on the grind
Can’t afford to pay you attention ‘cause you cost too high
Peach from a orchard, sweet lullaby my black orchid
Beautiful picture we painted inside a cracked portrait
Can’t describe the melodies of her exact softness…
Similar to Egyptian flutes played in rolls royces
We had the time of our lives, and I made some poor choices…
And now your heart remains closed like un-boiled oysters
Thirsty for ya luvin’ i ain’t left the kitchen in days
Ya perfume lingers like Sade singing of pain
Bringing the rain to a sunny day forget all of the money BAE
It’s just me and you now, let’s just runaway!

If this is meant to be
And you’re the one meant for me
There thru the ups and downs, when no comes around
Then baby this is it for me
But if this is meant to fail
Our heaven becomes a living hell
Yeah it’s sad and done but we had our fun
And I promise to wish you well
Wishing well...

The more love we made, the more lazy…
Planned to paint a narrative of our lives vivid as Scorsesee
Taken trips to Co-zumel, the waters of Haiti…
Everything was all swell till you wanted a baby
My appetite was too lustful, hard to adjust to
Wanted a piece of the pie and wanted the crust too
Forcing you to live a lie but still wanted to trust you…
Found out yesterday one of the homey’s had crushed you…
Damn, the stain of the pain it remains on the brains
Im playin’ 808’s and heartbreaks for days upon days
I’ve been living in a dark place but I’ll never cave
Too much pride, rather go blind like Etta James
Now I’m just sippin my whiskey in doubles (doubles)
Like ole timers tryna soak up my troubles
We used to take pictures in public as lovers (lovers)
And now I’m just a insignificant other (other)

If this is meant to be
And you’re the one meant for me
There thru the ups and downs, when no comes around
Then baby this is it for me
But if this is meant to fail
Our heaven becomes a living hell
Yeah it’s sad and done but we had our fun
And I promise to wish you well
Wishing well...

What did we do to get here?
All the magic we had has disappeared.
The opposite of right, 'cause all we do is fight.
That lovely dream took flight, and now it's unclear
Where we'll go from this moment on.
We tried our best to retain that bond.
It's clear to see, there's no more you and me.
Through it all, you'll remain in my memory.

If this is meant to be
And you’re the one meant for me
There thru the ups and downs, when no comes around
Then baby this is it for me
But if this is meant to fail
Our heaven becomes a living hell
Yeah it’s sad and done but we had our fun
And I promise to wish you well
Wishing well
