Awakening Lyrics


Face down with the L.A. curbside endings
In ones and zeros
Downtown was the perfect place to hide
The first star that I saw last night
Was a headlight of a man-made sky
But man-made never made our dreams collide, collide
Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain
We're awakening
Here we are now with the desperate youth and pain
We're awakening
Maybe it's called ambition
You've been talking in your sleep about a dream
We're awakening
Last week saw me living for nothing but deadlines
With my dead beat sky
But this town doesn't look the same tonight
These dreams started singing to me out of nowhere
And all my life I don't know

That I've ever felt so alive, alive
Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain
We're awakening
Here we are now with the desperate youth and pain
We're awakening
Maybe it's called ambition
You've been talking in your sleep about a dream
We're awakening
I wanna wake up kicking and screaming
I wanna wake up kicking and screaming
I wanna know that my heart's still beating
It's beating, I'm bleeding
I wanna wake up kicking and screaming
I wanna live like I know what I'm leaving
I wanna know that my heart's still beating
It's beating, it's beating, it's beating, I'm bleeding
Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain
We're awakening
Here we are now with the desperate youth and pain
We're awakening
Maybe it's called ambition
But you've been talk, talking in your sleep about a dream
We're awakening
Dream, we're awakening

Donso means hunter in Bambara, a Mande language spoken in West Africa. It's also the self-titled debut album, out September 2010 on Comet Records, that could be one of the best records of the year. Combining hard hitting broken beats, laid down by French producer Krazy Baldhead, with Bambara vocals, sung by Malian vocalist Gedeon Papa Diarra, Donso creates a modern interpretation of Mande hunters' music, a tradition that goes back hundreds of years.
