Lotus releases LIONESS
17-year-old newcomer Lotus unleashes her debut mixtape, "LIONESS," a fierce blend of empowering anthems and soul-searching ballads.
Listen now.
I edited the songs on this mixtape since we "originally" dropped it way back when and have since lost the original images and psd files, so i am not recreating that. but... for old times sake it's here. i kinda love that i get to play out now, what i would flashback to then. 😊😍

lyrics ↴
Honestly
Honestly, I'm tryna stay focused
You must think I've got to be joking when I say
I don't think I can wait
I just need it now
Better swing my way
I just need some dick
I just need some love
Tired of fucking with these lame niggas
Baby, I just need a thug
Won't you be my plug, ayy
You could be the one, ayy
We could start with a handshake
Baby, I'ma need more than a hug
Girls can't never say they want it
Girls can't never say how
Girls can't never say they need it
Girls can't never say now
Girls can't never say they want it
Girls can't never say how
Girls can't never say they need it
Girls can't never say now, oh, now
Give it to me like you need it, baby
Want you to hear me screaming, heavy breathing
I don't need a reason, baby
I want it til you can’t fight
I can give it to you right babe, oh
I wanna be your healing
I can be real good
Please don't get in your feelings
Ayy, I need some love
Ayy, I need some love
Ayy, I need some love
Ayy, and you can't judge
Girls need love too (yeah)
Girls, girls need love too
Girls need love (let me tell you something)
Girls need love (girls need loving too)
Girls need love too
Girls need love too (so what's a girl to do)
Girls need love too (when she needs loving too)
Girls, girls need love too

One of my favorite subtle details in Epic is how, at the start of Wouldn't You Like, you would expect Odysseus to be on his absolute highest guard after all the unexpected hardships throughout the trip and the conversation he just had with Eury. And yet when a mysterious voice from the trees says "I must say, what a brilliant speech you gave," you can practically HEAR the smirk in Odysseus's voice as he asks "who goes there?"
Bro is exploring a strange island while his crews' lives are in danger, but he also LOVES receiving a compliment on his yapping skills

I love "Open Arms" from Epic the Musical. The main singer's voice sounds like he's smiling, WHICH I LOVE, and it always cheers me up. But also, like, it's so fucking funny.
So Polites is like, "This life is amazing! Greet the world with open arms! Show trust, and be trusted!" All that fun stuff. And then they meet the lotus eaters, and he goes, "Odysseus be nice." And Odysseus just. threatens them into giving him what they want (food). And I know a lot of people interpret Polites's next few lines as "See? Being nice worked!" But for me, I see it as "Okay, okay, okay. That's a little wrong, but you've kinda got it. Okay, okay. We can work with this!" Especially with the enthusiastic way it was sung. IDK man I just found it super funny.
Of course, they learn it's mind controlling lotus, so Polites tries it his own way (asking nicely), which is what he likely preferred Odysseus had done. And he got an answer! (Non mind controlling food!) Also jives with the softer way he sung, "This life is amazing when you greet it with open arms," in the next chorus. Because look! He did it gently! And so he repeats his message in a gentler tone.
Anyway, Im gonna relisten to it again because I love Polites's voice.
