Dream big or donʼt dream at all I pray hard that I wonʼt fall into that blackhole of nightmares Iʼm quite scared of the outcome of this rat race Iʼm fast-paced diving deep into that casket Enough said, One day youʼll die and return to the lord and have to pay for your sins So you live and you learn then you crash and you burn for mistakes that you made on this earth Look, I ainʼt ready to go, Iʼve got a family to provide for The ones that I live and iʼd die for A lot of things to accomplish so nothing can stop me from now till the end Donʼt come between me and family, no If you ainʼt the homie then I donʼt mess with you bro Iʼm out to chase my dreams, do or die so you know that iʼma get it Iʼma give it all I got, I donʼt care If you aint with it Taking it for granted - no Sticks and stones might break my - bones And If I'm losing I'm winning cause when you stop, I go Stuff all this dreaming in a back pack When life coming at me, all I do is clap back While you say you're filled with rage Player all I do is flip the page Put em up Back then when I was that broke I still had to keep that hope Learnt how I could stay alive They thought I was just a joke Look where iʼm at right now Still pulling strings on a rope Well If they werenʼt with me then Wait till iʼm blowin up smoke I done come a long way Went off then I took the wrong way Iʼm just glad that I could live another day Journey to the west I could do this shit all day Never thought iʼd blow up and make that money of rap All I did was deliver bars and put my dreams on the tracks Never was a believer but iʼm doing more than just that Think iʼm finally ready now to put my name on the map So you can come and try me ‘Cos now nothing can stop me And iʼm really just buggin Ainʼt got the time for frontinʼ Iʼm out to chase my dreams, do or die yeah iʼma get it Iʼma give it all I got, I donʼt care If you aint with it Taking it for granted - no Sticks and stones might break my - bones And If I'm losing I'm winning cause when you stop, I go Stuff all this dreaming in a back pack When life coming at me, all I do is clap back While you say you're filled with rage Player all I do is flip the page Put em up

about

The world is shaped by the conjoined forces of creation and destruction. But the tension between both births a third channel of energy, one which is fundamentally progressive, one whose lifeblood is unassailably inspiring: Regeneration. And it’s never been more needed than now.

As the world reckons with the possibility of total erasure via a truly global pandemic, we look to art as a salve, as a bringer of hope, as a next-level reminder of the power of human ingenuity.

Enter Metem, the new album by Singaporean hip-hop linchpin Koflow. Christened after the philosophical concept of metempsychosis, which the ancient Greeks regarded as the transmigration of the soul, especially its reincarnation after death, the album is a hypervivid rendering of the corresponding evolution of hip-hop’s essence into new forms of music, new canvases and expressive worlds.
