Sweet July 03:22
He’s been wondering All this time Fallin Deeper Into life With his Glitter eyes Smoking in the morning Coffee time Tripper skies He knows where he’s going Compromise Sweet July Sunrise Memories Keep fading I just keep on waiting For something to Make me Feel that love that freedom Reminiscing my youth I keep Slowing down I need life’s kiss Moment of bliss slowing down I’m never gonna wake up Cloudy skies Caught up in these trippers In his mind Ego blind Another dimension Deeper Sweet July Sunrise Don’t forget the way you let yourself feel it You were only ever living in the present These days pass you by That’s the curse of time Memories Keep fading I just keep on waiting For something to Make me Feel that love that freedom Reminiscing my youth I keep Slowing down I need life’s kiss Moment of bliss slowing down I’m never gonna wake up Reminiscing my youth I keep Slowing down I need life’s kiss Moment of bliss slowing down I’m never gonna wake up

The Suits 03:57
Roots They keep growing Fresh water flowing To my soul And who, Who is posing Before you know it They have full control These streets take or leave you in the cold Believe what I tell you ‘Cause you don’t know Once you figure it out Things a little clearer In a sea of sharks that let you down And they leave you bitter Fuck the suits ‘Cause They lead you to everything That made you fall Roots They don’t know it They think they own it Power over souls Masked By the riches We’re left with stitches They have full control These streets take or leave in the cold Believe what I tell you ‘Cause you don’t know Once you figure it out Things a little clearer In a sea of sharks that let you down And they leave you bitter Fuck the suits ‘Cause They lead you to everything That made you fall

Misty Eyes 04:29
Slowly I descend into mad, Playing like a child no pretend oh, Taking baby steps on these freshwater lands, Fall into dream calling me misty eyes. Freedom come see me, Don’t you just leave me, In with the hands of the beast, Don’t let me get caught up, I’m dealing with my heart, But this life, It caught me red handed. I can’t give you, Something, I can’t give you, Loving. You gotta be quick, Cause it chases you, Guess the lessons I learned, Never did me no good, Led me right into this maze, I don’t know this way, Freedom shouldn’t feel this way, There’s no escape, But this life, It caught me red handed I can’t give you, Something, I can’t give you, Loving. Fall, Dream, Keep me, Wrapped in silver lining, My love holds me, Why do I feel out of reach? Fall, Dream, Keep me, Wrapped in silver lining, (Keys Solo) Slowly I descend into mad, Playing like a child no pretend oh, Taking baby steps on these freshwater lands, Fall into dream, Calling me misty eyes.

Undercover 05:10
Changing, Whenever I see your face in the mirror, I enter dystopian lands, Right in the palm of your hands. I’m laying, Feel the water flow over the sand, You are a forgiving man, And I am at your alter. Praying to God that I won’t fall, Praying to God I won’t give up. Praying to God that I won’t fall, Praying to God I won’t give up. I can still taste you, Hear your voice when I wake, Feel like I know you, But don’t recognise your face, Undercover. Leaving, Just me with my options I’ve never seen clearer, I’m doubting my heart and my head, If your gone I have nothing left. I’m breaking, Loving you is cold like heavy weather, The storm falls right on to my head, I just want to forget oh, Praying to God that I won’t fall, Praying to God I won’t give up. Praying to God that I won’t fall, Praying to God I won’t give up. I can still taste you, Hear your voice when I wake, Feel like I know you, But don’t recognise your face, Undercover. (Keys Solo) Praying to God that I won’t fall, Praying to God I won’t give up. Praying to God that I won’t fall, Praying to God I won’t give up.

about

The Debut EP from Leeds-based 9-piece Future Soul/Jazz ensemble: 'Heritage'.

Lyrical concepts address shared experiences of personal struggles and triumphs, and tackle current political issues. The title 'Dystopian Land' makes reference to the unsettling current state of the world, as well as the inner reflection of dissasociation and uncertainty from the perspective of the EP's protagonist.

These themes are elevated by powerful vocal hooks and horns, backed by a tight rhythm section, who bring infectious grooves and danceable beats that make the lyrical message only stronger.
