Fiyah! 03:02
I've found that (Fiyah!) I need that (Fiyah!) I seek that (Fiyah) I've got that (Fiyah!) (x2) I was delayed but not denied this I just testified It was more than just music, it was my soul cry my expectations for that was so high the disappointment was inevitable you know why? I found out down the line that it wasn't even mine even though my name was on it with 3 red dice even though it was my idea and my design and the creative maestro helped me bring it to life now I am unsigned and we won't ever unite the tracks we left you can follow 'em to the light it seems that we didn't see eye to eye you didn't see my vision and that dream died i spent a while mourning my soul did sigh I'm glad I got to go to Paris for 10 nights cos I was already ready to hang up mic and call it a day and give up the fight but... I've found that (Fiyah!) I need that (Fiyah!) I seek that (Fiyah) I've got that (Fiyah!) (x2) I cross over the bridge and come just as I am Outside my bubble I'm still rocking this jam I'm still giving skanksgivin' doing my dance Delayed but not denied it's all in God's hands cos... I've found that (Fiyah!) I need that (Fiyah!) I seek that (Fiyah) I've got that (Fiyah!) (x2) I've been fanned into flame I've found my fire again I'm aiming higher again yes the Messiah again has sparked me up and I am burning brightly again though I was feeling jaded nothing could excite me again He asked what's in my hand, I said Lord a smartphone he said look again but this time look in your soul so I looked again as a matter of fact I needed my mind renewed there aint an app for that so I started to tap on it writing some raps on it stating some facts on it making some tracks on it and now I'm now back on it with even more intensity and eventually i'll be who I meant to be yes these beats I made em on my phone and I'm leaving this message after I set the tone These are just some outtakes some more deleted scenes I'm still outside my bubble bursting at the seams cos..... I've found that (Fiyah!) I need that (Fiyah!) I seek that (Fiyah) I've got that (Fiyah!) (x2)

Hook: while sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came to me While sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came Verse 1 I've been thinking of not rapping again then I make a beat and get it cracking again then I dream of people packing events then I get on the mic and I rap and I vent truly I do this for the love and feel like I've been blessed from above I cannot really stress this enough but I'll stress it a lot cos the stress is a lot and the blessing's a lot though the road is so rough and I have hit some speed bumps and I've been forced to slow down but now I'll pick the speed up I think it's time for a re-up It's travel time no need for visa as I slice this up like pizza I walk with a lean call me Pisa while sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came to me While sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came Verse 2 I'm doing this one for fun now from sun up straight to sun down no one can put this son down cos I rose with The Risen One touch down or I should say it's a goal I put this in the net now download It's how I get down, I get down low head shoulders knees and toes I'm blessed bolder deep and grown I get over these storms whoa! yes I'm a soldier I beat my foes this dead culture needs my flow it's just a moment I'll go with it and sprinkle this beat I made wiith lyrics as I sprinkle my tea with 2 sugars and some milk it's hot like a cooker Hook: while sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came to me While sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came I take the first sip and it feels good everything feels right just like it should all things work together for good cos I love The One who loved me first oooh! I made this beat on my phone just like I send my tweets from my phone I exhale breathe in my poems I feel so deep in my zone sometimes misunderstood like nina simone if you don't like me leave me alone I rep for those unknown those who seek relief with deep groans all of my peeps know it's not always that deep though sometimes I just want to be I need another cup of tea! Hook: while sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came to me While sippin' on my tea (x2) these thoughts came

Mahalia 03:28
Verse 1: I'm a student of life man I can't play truant to drop out means death man and ending up ruined So I read between the lines as I'm pursuing knowledge and wisdom that's what I'm doing I'm also spreading the message of the Kingdom that Kingdom that is here and will soon come Some think that's gruesome to me that's awesome I hold up my cup Lord will you pour some of that new wine now let me raise a toast Let's clink glasses as I make my boast in the one that we should praise the most The Most High who is close by the Lord of hosts the one who has blessed me with the gift to uplift I shine like a streetlight on this night shift sweet sounds coming down as my lines hit my soundcloud is filled you're delighted flammable thoughts have been ignited I feel fire in my belly as I write this they say this is a young man's game but to me this is not a game as I speak flames 2nd childhood, extended adolescence you feel growing pains when time robs your innocence I'm trying to make sense of what seems senseless the only option is to be relentless Hook: I wanna sing like Mahalia la la Verse 2: I guess transformation takes time not a few seconds like Optimus Prime for everyday people with arrested development (Speech!) fishing for religion from those with private jets who swear to God they are heaven sent Some haven't got heaven's scent, a heavy stench I perceive when they speak with dragon's breath some speak life and some speak death so I pulled the plug, I did disconnect from the system so I could reflect the man in the mirror I did inspect I asked myself am I moonwalking I confess It's not easy to face your own flaws when your ego is such an eyesore but if you look deeper, you'll see what I saw not with my eyes but by faith from my core. I see The Lord, on the throne seated giving grace to the humble and resisting the conceited those too proud to admit grace is needed in this war they're already defeated self-examination, do you pass your own test? most times I fail mine I must confess but I sing like Mahalia because I'm blessed and that's the way i get all the weights off my chest! Hook: I wanna sing like Mahalia la la

Jars of water turned it into wine Jars of water, The Spirit came Verse 1: You put my tears in a bottle, then turn 'em into wine Now I'm sippin' on new wine from the true vine Yes I drink up and break bread and link up with my kith and kin through and thin And think up All these lyrics that I'm spillin' over they're running over yes it is nova Drawing closer to Jehovah To my kings and queens this jack here was a joker now I'm feeling ace cos His grace touched this loner With tears my eyes were misty now I feel typsy I'm sippin' on that good good feelin' kinda dizzy because outta the blue one day it hit me Even though I sinned so much you did forgive me I can be so hard headed but you bear with me In my life you give me more happy endings than disney So cheers! Lets clink glasses There's enough to go around this is classic Instant vintage coming straight from the winepress Taste and see the very best of His Highness Aaaaah tastes so refreshing it's a blessing I'm intoxicated right now I am guessing That you think I'm a drunkard and I am bonkers Well life is a stage and this is my concert Nova is very sober and feeling stronger i came, I saw and conquered now drink up Jars of water turned it into wine Jars of water, The Spirit came Verse 2: You put my tears in a bottle, then turn 'em into wine Now I'm sippin' on new wine from the true vine Yes I drink up and break bread and link up With my kith and kin through and thin And think up All these lyrics that I'm spillin' over they're running over yes it is nova Drawing closer to Jehovah To my kings and queens this jack here was a joker now I'm feeling ace cos His grace touched this loner Yeah you turn my sorrow into joy The bitter taste on my tongue has gone oi!

Let your kingdom come will be done Kingdom come Have Your way (x2) Verse 1 It's more than just music its the soundtrack of a movement So after the music stops we keep it moving It's more than just hype or the flashing lights or working a crowd or working a mic It's more than just YouTube hits Or awards, or the loud applause that you're getting on tour It's more than just downloads or getting a reload This is deeper than rap more than a good flow more than just bars that frees thoughts and feelings more than getting pulled up when the DJ wheels it It's more than just gaining popularity for your artistry more than infiltrating this industry It's more than just mainstream vs underground more than a genre or just another sound It's my life's soundtrack so don't confuse it We live this movie it's more than just music Hook: You're on my side (x4) I've got to testify (x4) Let your kingdom come will be done Kingdom come Have Your way (x2) Verse 2 It's easy to make the gospel seen When you're trapped in the bubble of the gospel scene But if you really know what the gospel means You know it's more than just music that we need Good music is nice when it has flavour But music aint your saviour it can't save ya When songs get deleted Jesus still saves You are my song Lord beyond the grave Some say it's a method to spread the message others confuse the genre with the message, the essence Of what I do is faith related That is obvious it can't be debated From a heart of worship these bars were created So even when I'm just spitting it is sacred but the less informed, they try my patience When their dualistic mindset tries to frame it hook: You're on my side (x4) I have to testify (x4)

Motivation 02:59
This is that motivation This is that motivation When you hear this You start to move without no hesitation (x2) I went back to the basics Now I feel motivated My focus no more hazy My time must not be wasted So let us keep it moving I'll do what I should be doing My vision I keep pursuing and living the words I'm spewing This is what I am choosing And I'm winning no more losing I'm in my lane cruising What's up how you doing? This is that motivation This is that motivation When you hear this You start to move without no hesitation (x2) mooooooove!!! if you've got that motivation just moooooooove!!! if you've got that motivation, yeah! I must confess though I was feeling so stressed though I wasn't feeling blessed though But somehow like hey presto! I started feeling different My whole perspective shifted My soul was feeling lifted I remembered I'm gifted Gifted for a reason Gifted for this season As I focused on that I felt my hope increasing I felt such motivation Like a burning sensation I caught a revelation Now I'm running with patience So if you can relate I hope this motivates Let us accelerate Until we see those pearly gates This is that motivation This is that motivation When you hear this You start to move without no hesitation (x2) mooooooove!!! if you've got that motivation just moooooooove!!! if you've got that motivation, yeah! Sometimes I feel like quitting I mean who am I kidding? I often ask myself Where do I really fit in? And am I really different? We all share fears and hopes I guess the difference is How we all choose to cope My coping strategy Is to build gradually And when I gain momentum Start moving rapidly But I found that motive You know that deeper reason My purpose is my focus The reason why I'm breathing Until the day I'm leaving I will not stop believing So here's some motivation Now feel it as you breathe in This is that motivation This is that motivation When you hear this You start to move without no hesitation (x2)

Verse 1: Guess who's back on the riddim With motivation attacking the riddim I speak with grace I never slack on the riddim It's that Naija boy spitting raps on the riddim Don't you like how I'm flippin the riddim? Pack your bags let's take a trip with the riddim As I'm rippin' this riddim and spit on the riddim I'm hoping I motivate with the riddim Bridge: Move Don't just sit there Move Shay you dey fear? Move Don't just stare Move Don't dull you hear? (x2) Hook: This is that motivation This is that motivation When you hear this You start to move without no hesitation (x2) Verse 2: Oooooh you've gotta shine daily That's why I renew my mind daily My mind is free you can't jail me I'm somebody even if they don't hail me I dig deep and find motivation and somehow face my situations Sorrow ends in jubilation Low times end with elevation Bridge: Move Don't just sit there Move Shay you dey fear? Move Don't just stare Move Don't dull you hear? (x2) Hook: This is that motivation This is that motivation When you hear this You start to move without no hesitation (x2) Verse 3: Yep one more time I need some time to ease my mind Hear my speech as I speak my mind As I come another time with the rhyme Sometimes it feels like I'm stuck And to move on takes more than good luck But I've got that motivation and I'm heading straight for my destination Bridge: Move Don't just sit there Move Shay you dey fear? Move Don't just stare Move Don't dull you hear? (x2) Hook: This is that motivation This is that motivation When you hear this You start to move without no hesitation (x2)

about

All tracks were written and produced by Karl Nova.

The tracks on this project couldn't fit on #MEOMP (Made 'Em On My Phone) #MEOMP is an acronym for "Made 'Em On My Phone" because the whole project was created on my phone. Every beat was made from scratch and mixed on my phone. This marked the point I took hold of my artistic destiny and began to find a way to make the sound I wanted.

The additional vocals on this were recorded at Unik Recording studios and mixed by Giuliano Eboulia
