For you to notice the light, you have to be fully immersed in the total consumption of the dark....
"Lurking in the shadows of the abyss will you then notice even the tinnest fraction of luminescence coming from frozen crystals…."
Ivy was drowning in his thoughts so early in the morning as he was laying besides his mystery girl who was still soundly sleeping after their night of luxuria explorations together....
His thoughts vanished rapidly as she finally woke up and rubbed her hands on his chest….
Hope your sleep was as sound as mine....she asked whilst smilling at him
Yes maami...…he replied and kissed her forehead
He then got up and went straight to the bathroom to brush his teeth and then prepare breakfast for the both of them….
The day went by swiftly as it approached dusk...."
Ivy escorted her back to her place as they both lived in the same proximity...she wished she could stay another night but they both had plans which couldn't be ignored for pleasures they knew they would get some other time...…
Ivy kissed her goodbyes right infront of her doorsteps as he headed back to his place….
He then texted Marley to let him know he was on his way to his crib…."
Broski….wats up"
I'm good bro, hope you're still coming over as planned...…..Marley replied
For sure, and i'm also coming with my pc for the recording"
Alright fam pull up…..Marley replied
Ivy packed up his gear and went straight to his homeboy's crib as scheduled
On his way to the crib...he branched at his plug's to get some Arizona for the night…
He needed to feel every note as they record during the night's session
He got to the crib at about 19:59 and as always the energy in the crib was lit and soothing to his soul….
They were all vibing together in the living room with the Arizona as they waited patiently for midnight so they could start their recording session….
"Midnight" wasn't the only time recordings could be done but it was like their "thing" as they felt midnight soothes the vibe perfectly….."
It finally came so Ivy set up his pc and mic for the recording...
They started vibing and it was going smoothly…
Ivy wats up...Said marley
I'm good bro, this arizona trips is really syncing with the vibes of the beats...Ivy replied
When are you dropping your EP tho....Marley asked
Tomorrow...said Ivy
Blast!!!!...lets vibe check it before its official release bro...Said Marley whislt smiling
I swear!!!!....Ivy replied as he went through his "unrealeased folder" and pulled up the Extended plays from it.."
….Marley brought out a plastic bottle with a tiny hose poking out by the side of it...….."
It was covered with silver foil at the top of it and the foil was poked through with needles thus creating a pathway for air to pass through….."
The hose at the side had a little curved half bulb attached to it….
What's this bro.....Ivy asked as he glanced at it curiously as it was his first time seeing it
Its "bonker"...…..said Nolito
Bro trust me once you vibe your EP with this shit it'll will take you straight into space i swear...….said slim whilst smiling
Damn….so where does the weed go then…....Ivy asked as he grabbed the bonker
….Its not for weed bro....said Marley smirking"
He then brought out a little foil and opened it…Inside were five tiny crystal-like stones that looked like fragments from diamonds"
Out of curiosity Ivy asked....
Whats that…"
Stone...
Once you're on this trips bro you'll be floating in space...…Marley replied
He then lit the crystals and inhaled its fumes but didn't exhale none of it"
Ivy was a bit shocked and surprised he didn't see an exhale but he still kept his cool regardless, but he couldn't help but ask why he didn't…"
You don't exhale its fumes cuz that's a waste of its essence...….said Nolito as he took the bonker to inhale too
The three of them passed the crystals around in a circular pattern till it got to Ivy…"
Ivy was not new to the trills of the "first high" trips so he was well braced for the influx of new sensation he was about to inhale…..
He inhaled lightly and the fumes slowly made its way through the pipes into his mouth and he kept inhaling till it all went in…"
He thought it would be like weed…..just another gradient of the same slow dissolve But it wasn't...."
"Weed was a sigh. This was a surge"
The air seemed to tighten around him, rich and deliberate, like the whole room was breathing in sync with his pulse....
His songs were playing and he could hear and feel every single note, sound and melodies coming from it…..
It was as if he was intertwined with the music
Syncing to every rhythm and flows…."
This shit is sensational.....said Ivy as he was singing and flowing along to his music with the boys"
He felt so weightless as if all his pains and sorrows has been lifted off his shoulders and he was just floating in space whislt listening to the songs he made…."
"He wished this sensation would never end"
While they were still vibing Ivy decided to share something he had been wanting to share with his homie Marley….he's been waiting for the right moment to but couldn't find any.."
What better time to share it....he thought to himself"
Marley wats up do you remember Nora?....said Ivy
Yes bro, wats good...he replied
Well, the both of us are together now...said Ivy
Oh wow, that's cool bro…..he replied
This wasn't a big deal as one would have thought but the situation was a lil tensed between both parties because Nora was Marley's distant ex....
But they've been seperated for a year and half before she and Ivy started dating…"
Her relationship with Marley was more of a fling than that of soul engagement, so Ivy felt it wasn't a big deal to be with her regardless of how awkward it may seem…..
Nora is Ellish…."
Ellish was the name Ivy gave her because she had certain similarities to the singer "Billie Eillish" who was Ivy's favorite female artiste at that time...
They continued vibing and recording after their conversation…..
The speakers still hummed from the last playback, the bass vibrating faintly through the sound system…."
The air was thick with the smell of Arizona and frozen crystals..
Ivy leaned back in his chair, headphones half-off, eyes closed. "That's the one," he muttered, almost to himself.
No one disagreed. They all knew it….. the track they'd been chasing all night had finally shown up, wild and uninvited, like it had been waiting for them to stop trying so hard.
But as the last note faded, the vibe shifted just a little.
Yo...Ivy wats up….said Marley
Wats up bro…..Ivy repiled
Its about our conversation earlier tho....
