Periklis Begzos Upon discovering the artist way back in 2013, with the album "The Gutter Twinz", its tagline was:

"This Album ain't Fresh
This Album is stress
Athens City 2013..."

Now "Drop" is both FRESH and stress...

Looking forward to more Blaknights... Favorite track: Let Go.

Blaknights 02:38
Tried to put me down but i learnt my lesson cut off the connections to release the tension tricky point of view where there's no clear intentions staring at the light cause i been living in these black nights Blaknights i see you wanna breath into these black nights Blaknights i see you wanna breath into these black nights close your eyes come close to me Blaknights close your eyes come close to me Blaknights Tried to put me down but i learnt my lesson cut off the connections to release the tension tricky point of view where there's no clear intentions staring at the light cause i been living in these black nights I see you wanna breath into these black nights i see you wanna breath into these black nights close your eyes come close close your eyes come close Sit at the table break bread that's a figure of speech you can tell about a man from the way that he speaks way that he greets the energy the power he seeks the way he look you in the eye the goal he trying to reach branches from the same tree we don’t grow the same way settle as a follower i wasn’t built to obey full effect no foreplay choose to do it my way respect the hustler and the hustle that's my light everyday difference is the way of approach i move low-key observate swift as a ghost sit back and take it easy i know better than most that everybody is a playa but who really a coach Lately these voices in my head are tryna break me instead of calming down they overtake me they make it difficult to balance and reshape me triggers on safety annihilation witness the preparation put in consideration my struggle for preservation strive and determination i feel it's an obligation Somebody please change the channel they killing my motivation Jesus frustration turn these suckers into pieces they begging for attention cause they need us i stand tall while the enemy increases they fucking leeches Tried to put me down but i learnt my lesson cut off the connections to release the tension tricky point of view where there's no clear intentions staring at the light cause i been living in these black nights

Payback 02:48
Material time, envy is endless living relentless, frozen and senseless can't look to the sky, so i follow my senses it's dark in the city where the moon always burns you a fool? you defenseless wanna be my apprentice? can you see through the fences? free in the land of the dead where the pain gimme fuel why you helpless? nobody can help us, fears supposed to effect us its supposed to effect us, we so easily reject us It's the same trigger point that they use every time that they use and neglect us it's the way that it feel when you feel that you ready to break feeling breathless release all the tension release all the anger to every direction there is no progression you feed on aggression you bleed the depression to live the rejection ah! Give it all back give it right back salt to the wound this is payback living on the edge while you laid back hungry to the bone gimme feedback wanna spit twice on the same track wanna go all in this no playback hungry to the bone gimme feedback until my tummy full and they on their back crack i'm a junkie when it come to rap smack my bitch up i grew up with that fact your vision weak i ain't feeling that trap i need a bassline i need it fat snap don't need to chill i need to attack back i got redemption that's where i'm at rat you make me sick with the way you act blah blaknights that's a piece of art Give it time give it time one more second one more crime give it time give it time what is yours? what is mine? give it time give it time on the edge can't give it time give it time give it time day by day stay on the grind Faith is all you can test torture of a mind that never feel blessed if you never stop to think and digest you won't overcome the pain you suppress let it, break you down man just let it change your path to reset it stakes is high so go get it take the chance or regret it ah! Give it all back give it right back give it all back give it right back give it all back give it right back salt to the wound this is payback give it all back give it right back give it all back give it right back living on the edge while you laid back give it all back give it right back Give it time give it time one more second one more crime Difficult to breath that's a living hell difficult to be that's a walking L focus on the past then you won't excel point of no return to avoid the cell Give it all back give it right back

Drop 03:23
Why don’t you try to release yourself Beggars can’t be choosers free yourself Take that risk don’t bend don’t fold never been impressed by status quo living life in a all time low no excuses, must let go open up your eyes to see progress different point of view but none the less i don’t wanna force you just suggest i don’t wanna... mind disease or my disease? who’s to blame we on our knees? seen 'em grow i killed the seed can i release the pressure please? skip the pain hop on the train follow rules keep feeling plain play it cool the more you gain a public figure in the game numbers come numbers go multiply play your role stuck in life lost your goal lost your edge lost your flow lost you faith life a hoe who to trust? friend or foe? who’s for real? who’s for show? truth a word they don’t know break the ice melt the snow bring the heat burn 'em slow who to trust? you don’t know Why don’t you try to release yourself Beggars can’t be choosers free yourself You don’t know me you don’t own me stay restless homie restless homie the rest are phoney they reckless homie you don’t know me you don’t own me you'll never own me restless homie the rest are phoney they reckless homie One step closer cross the line don’t press rewind take one breath then use your mind just leave behind all those choices redefine you losing time tik tok tik tok overtime you gotta bend those rules if you to find what makes sense? what's worth a try? you live you die so suppressed that you can't reply just getting by no control identify the reason why freedom keeps just passing by i mean i gave you wings you never chose to fly Why don’t you try to release yourself Beggars can’t be choosers free yourself

Ashes falling people crawling rise of the fallen but the pain keep calling Out of the flames Walking down a path where the flames keep calling i see burnt reflections through the asses falling out of the flames Metal and steel all that remains black be the shadows that cover the earth black be the future try to maintain intoxicated i see you faded people are crumbling smell of decay what is portrayed as a better tomorrow is just a delay from finding your way, in Blaknights energy flow dead fish go with the flow klik klak release and reload learning to breath progressively grow do not follow the prey Blaknights avoiding the day trying to face my dilemmas faceless the people i see every day! ah! do you follow a plan? are you part of the scam? tell me where do you stand then i'll give you my hand bigger they come the bigger they fall instead of attacking you stare at the wall falling apart cause they making you crawl get the fuck up and just answer the call this is a quest, not a request animal cannibal animal cannibal feeding on flesh try to express, trigger the stress animal cannibal living mechanical put it to rest Metal and steel how does it feel? back to the basics inventing the wheel back to reality nothing is real back to repeating no way to appeal back on your back what you attract keep the confusion around you and that keeps the solution away interact can you evolve are your feelings intact? rrrrraaaaahhhhh you never reacted, broken and fractured always distracted, saw the way but you passed it step stepping away stepping away from the energy prey pray for redemption you're stepping away lost your direction you're fading away that's the price that you pay, to the god you obey tug of war everyday, low self esteem on display it's the price that you pay, so you manage to stay part of the circus having no purpose fight the addiction ok? Walking down a path where the flames keep calling i see burnt reflections through the asses falling out of the flames...

I tried to change my mind so many times there ain’t no winning when you losing time is it a scene or a sinking boat where i reside did i lose my sense of innocence because of pride? i chose to walk away, i chose to hide I saw the vultures come and wait in line everybody want respect but nobody trying the culture dying... damn... You an old soul living in a black hole jealousy and envy is the power that you control pieces of the puzzle never fit never felt hole never felt alive never had a place to call home lonely in the dark, lone white shark troubled be the mind leave no power to the heart it's a matter of perception feeling of direction change your point of view become part of the exception drink from the wine give you what is mine offer you a chair give some comfort to your mind i been traveling for many years what you tryna find? travel has a purpose then the purpose is divine can you see that? i see the bigger picture you just see rap so many colors on my canvas yours is all black don’t choose the path of imitation that’s a life trap i call it time for elevation can you feel that?

LET GO OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO : bit.ly/LET_GO


Lyrics by Elephant Phinix
Produced by Sadacore
Mixed by Sadacore at Studio46
Mastered by MP Analog
Artwork & cover design by R255

Black is the absorption of all colors in the visible spectrum. It can be defined as the visual impression experienced when no visible light reaches the eye. This state triggers the mind to depend on other senses. Hearing takes the lead, with the absence of colour sound
is in control. Eyes down vibes up.

Night is the period of ambient darkness from sunset to sunrise,
the time where the sun is below the horizon. The disappearance of sunlight has dramatic effects on the morphology, physiology and behavior of almost every organism. Some sleep during the night while others claim the night as their own.
