Karma Train (Fox and Naoki Collab)

[Intro, by a recording of my own voice - spoken, angry and irritable] "I'm not letting the pain sit... I'm taking *every single bit of it*! And pouring it, my heart out--my heart, mind, and soul out into the music... With the power of music and truth on my side, I'm giving you a hell of a song!" [drawn out instrumental] [Verse 1][FOX:] Almost a year gone by, I'm still unable to forgive. Sometimes, I still cry, As I carry this weight within. A heavy grief, Uncertainty, Double heartache, It's so much pain... I don't try to shoulder it, Not on my own. I've got a support system! I'm not alone. I cannot accept, This harsh reality. I gave up a dream, But this wish exists in me. For open contact, Honest conversation. Why can't I have that?? This frustrating situation. Don't have a lot to ask! [Pre-chorus] I know I've been let down, Disappointed so many times! I've been deceived and hurt, As I somehow get by... I still have my, Love Love Love Love Love Love I know God up above, He can't stop my love...! Love Love Love Love Love Love [Chorus] What comes around goes around! It's coming my way now! Time to ride this out. All aboard the karma traaaaaaainnnn. Pouring all this suffering. Letting out this hurting, Giving it all for fueling. I'll be riding the karma traaaaaaainnn. Get the fuck out of the way!!! If you don't want to be mowed down, Get out of the way!! Run awaaaaay... [Verse 2, melodic rapping][NAOKI:] Look. Look, I've always stood by your side, Witnessed the many times you cried. I keep noticing along the tracks, Your hopes keep getting knocked back... With you I stand, sharing this rage. All our fury, breaking out of the cage! We're sick of the excuses and games! Here, we'll further reshape our fate! Let me tell you something they don't know. You're using each setback to help you grow. With every heartbreak and every scar, It's what brought the train this far...!! [Pre-chorus][FOX:] I still have my, Love Love Love Love Love I know God up above, He can't stop my Love Love Love Love Love Love Love Love... [Chorus] [NAOKI:] What comes around goes arounnnnd!!! It's coming our way nowwwww!!! [FOX:] Time to ride this out. Ohhhhhh, All aboard the karma traaaaaaainnnn... [NAOKI:] Pour out the suffering. Let out all that hurting!! [FOX:] I'm giving it all for fueling. We'll be riding the karma traaaaaaainnn... [NAOKI:] Get the fuck out of the way! [FOX:] (Get movin'!!) [NAOKI:] If you don't want to be mowed down, [FOX:] (Get movin'!!) [NAOKI:] Get out of the way!! Run awaaaaay!!! [Bridge] [FOX:] These tracks here, made of iron... The wheels are made of bone. Together, we are riding, This is our way home. [NAOKI:] We’re burning the maps! We’re cutting the brakes! Paying the price, For their mistakes. [Style: Beat drops back in heavy, aggressive Boom Bap – Fox and Naoki alternating lines rapidly. Aggressive Vocal Delivery] [FOX:] Not a haunting, this is a reckoning. [NAOKI:] It’s the ghost of the truth, beckoning! [FOX:] I don’t want apologies. I want the release! I don’t want the silence. [NAOKI:] We'll make our own peace! [FOX:] Can’t hold back the steam. The pressure is rising! [NAOKI:] The smoke will come out on the horizon... [FOX:] WE ARE THE CONDUCTORS! THE FUEL IS THE PAIN! NO STOPPING THE RUSH! NO STOPPING THIS TRAIN! [Final Chorus] [Style: Maximum Energy, Soulful Psychedelic Rock guitar solo tearing through a heavy Boom Bap beat, overlapping vocals] [BOTH:] What comes around goes around!!! It’s coming our way now!!! Time to ride this out. [FOX:] All aboard the karma traaaaaaainnnn...! [NAOKI:] Pour out the suffering! [FOX:] (Pour it out!) Letting out this hurting! [NAOKI:] (Let it go!) Giving it all for fueling! We’ll be riding the karma traaaaaaainnnn... [FOX:] Get the fuck out of the way!!! (GET MOVIN'!!) If you don't want to be mowed down, (GET MOVIN'!!) [NAOKI:] GET OUT OF THE WAY!! [FOX:] (GET MOVIN'!!) [NAOKI:] RUN AWAAAAAY!!! [Outro] [Style: Heavy vinyl scratching, beat slows down into a spacey, echoing guitar fade] [spoken, calm in a breathless sigh of relief][female vocal][FOX:] "I really needed to expel that weight off my chest... You doing alright, Naoki?" [spoken, calm, breathy and in soft tone][NAOKI:] "Yeah. Don't worry... We're making progress through your recovery... No falling behind. Let's keep going."
