Chorus
Soulfège
We rock to the rhythm, like we own it
Make a groove 'bout as funky as it's gon' get
Strap the baby to your back and get on it
And just move to the rhythm like a zombie
From Brazil, to the islands, to Dahomey
I got Ghana gettin' busy, like you know me
Bringin' my people back together like Panafest
It's as basic as the beat in your chest

(Kelley Nicole)
So I've been called many things
But y'all know me
For would a rose by any other name
Smell as sweet?
From the "Teaneck Diva"
To "Special K"
With positivity and strength
Style and grace
Just "Kell" to some
KJ to a few
A North star to Q
But this one thing is true
It don't matter the name
As you can clearly see
Just don't spell my first name
Without two "e's"
Well I'm the only lady up in my set
You know for all the females
I'll come correct
Adding my feminine touch to the Soulfège crew
Bright eyes and warm smiles to all that we do
While reppin' North Jersey
I'll endure to the end
Bringin' flavor only a Fabulous Johnson can
You better ask somebody
For all those who don't know
This is the Fabulous
The one and only
Kelley Nicole

(Catharsis)
First I take some love
And then I spread it around
Leave the mic smokin'
Before I'm settin' it down
Couldn't be more funky
If sweat had a sound
Don't know about you
But Jon Gramling came to get down
I shouted out home
Before I step into the zone
Not so much the words
As that particular tone
I do music for my soul
Meditate for self-control
This is just a warning
To those who sold their soul...
It's Catharsis
The artist born to break the mould
And someday you'll pay for them lines that you stole
Shoutin' out Ms. Milky
She does a body good
We be plannin' for our future
Without knockin' on wood
I'm shoutin' out Jersey
Cats assumin' New York
Silly rabbit
Philly magic is the style that I sport
It's a potluck and I'm bringin' funk to the function
So sit back and enjoy the rest of this Heavy construction

(DNA)
Akɛ sane eba
Atwa ko noko tamɔ nɔni wɔ tswaaa
Kɛjɛ, Boston, Kingston, Salvador, Adabraka, Diaspora
I'm representin' me
"Ga nyo Bi"
The one who rode around the world
Upon on an African beat
DNA
You gots ta' dig the sound
When we kick it
We take a vibe you know
And we flip it
Somebody said we couldn't do
But we did it
And now we're ready to play
Your girl said I was cute
And built to suit
All that tropical fruit
Nowadays she says she prefers Amistad over Roots
Who strapped these boots?
I'm pullin' but I can't get up
It's like the laces keep on trippin' me up
Don't change the subject
I never be stutterin' when I flow
Soulfège is like a psychic juggernaut
That's spittin' truth into your soul
Like Rhyme Control
NÃo pode quebrar minha alma
Sempre cento percento Africano
And still keep it global!

Chorus
