Dreamin' 01:38
I’m dreaming Oh, I’m dreaming of the things I can be I’m crawling out my skin Don’t know where I’m goin or where I’ve been Been stuck in the same place all of my life While I watch those inspired by me get light, it’s not fair That you are there and I am here Don’t you think it’s weird that you are there and I am here? I was having nervous breakdowns like damn, these niggas that much better than me?? Like I ain’t out here with the 1, 2, 3? Like I don’t write it down with my A, B, C’s? Like, to be real I’ve been holding myself back I really hurts watching all of my friends stack While I’m lookin for the one little thing I lack But to squeeze myself into that box feels whack Sometimes it looks like I got it all I fall harder when the storm comes pounding my door I got mad shit to lose, I’m guarding it all Mad skin that’s bruised I’m locked in the stall, it’s all Hidden wrapped tight under my sleeve I pray nobody sees when the wounds start bleeding That nobody hears when my heart stops beating I wish I could watch like a fly on the ceiling, I I, I, I, I’m dreaming

Ain't nothin but bar spittin' Kick hittin' Wonder where you been, you keep hidden Real cute, pussy kitten I’m too cold, you need mittens Never Normal, #NiggasNiggin We hit that beat, & and you gon start jiggin' You don’t want no smoke with us Tried to hitch a ride cause you missed the bus Yeah we is serious, you need a nap, you delirious While I, have a nice night cap I produced the beat and I rap Turn my mic up, don’t forget that Turn my mic up! I gotta be loud Hit the back of the crowd, know what I mean? I’m tryna get down Don’t act like a clown in front of my team Cause we goin’ up and up and you know what you did Remember when you wasn’t fuckin’ wit the kid, huh Remember that? Y’all ready for some rap?? I was laid back tryna get my rest You be lookin’ over tryna copy my test I got the answers, I’m simply the best You be lookin’ stressed & under duress BIG vocabulary ‘cause I read printed press Squared up in Times I surpassed all the rest Shade of the money changed, stuff it in my dress Pink & blue, keep it close to my chest Uh oh, can’t pronounce my name Listen to what I say: Rafia Don’t put the emphasis on the “A”, put on it on the “I”, let it terminate: Rafia Who got big bars, success in the cards, CV go hard: Rafia It ain’t not but a one Rafia, and I cant stop til I’m done, nuh uh And when I pull up 10 To the party you can’t get in There ain’t no haggling You geeses gagglin’ They stretching out they necks Wings flapping but they can’t get next Face twisted something vex While the big boys cut my checks You can't pronounce my name What? But I go hard, hard, hard, hard Ooh, you can't pronounce my name Yeah, but I go hard, hard

Crush 02:51
I must’ve lost my mind Tryna find you Never know where you are I’m gonna fall behind Don’t remind me I’m up to no good, you see You cut the line Took my time I was fine before you But we ain’t made ends meet since, oh, '13 Come find me Sitting in my pink routine Not wanting to be seen But I look like a bug Scared to get crushed WooOoo I’ve got a crush on you ( I’ve got a crush on you ) You (you) I’ve got a crush on you, boo I gotta have you I’ve got a crush! Cause when I think of you I’m smilin’ Devil a lie, you’re wylin’ Saved you a piece so dive in Get you a look, I’m stylin’ Got too high, I’m flyin’ Be, be good, no cryin’ See me lose it again Re-retreat, go back in (x2) I… Go back in (x3)

Don’t stop, don’t stop get it Came this far now you can’t just quit It’s hard Now you know that I got bars Take over the world and have lunch on Mars ‘Cause ET is a friend to me Once they see how cute my little tiny pen can be Until the cameras come a little close to me Back up, gimme a little bit of space to breathe Cause when they hatin’ that’s a win to me Keep - keep on shading like you is a summer tree Girl g’on head shake it til the money leaves You baldhead whipping all the longest weaves, yeah Don’t stop don’t stop get it, get it Don’t stop don’t stop get it, yeah Don’t stop don’t stop get it, Baldhead whipping all the longest weaves Don’t stop don’t stop get it, get it Don’t stop don’t stop get it, yea Don’t stop don’t stop get it Girls gon’ shake it til the money leaves Damn I hate waiting on my money Museums, schools they stay actin funny We were posed to be done in 30 days Half a year gone, still ain’t been paid And this boy still in my phone With the weak jokes, leave me alone Cause I can make my own self laugh When I picture your goof ass comin’ in last, ha You’ve got to floss before you touch me

Get Off 02:25
Baby, I think there’s something wrong with you Get off of my shoulder Get off of my arm We just had a brief conversation You just got a taste of my charm This ain’t going nowhere further I think you got it all mixed up I may have laughed at a few of your jokes Took a hit of your smoke But I don’t wanna fuck ya Gimme my space, ugh Get outta my face, ugh Slow dowwwwn-uh You ain’t winning this race Not even in first place Your homeboy could make it past first base I just wanna know what it’s like When i don’t have your treble drowning out my bass Get off of my shoulder Get off of my arm (x4) I just think it’s weird that it seems so clear That I don’t want you Still you’re in my ear, I don’t want to hear What you wanna do I am goin home alone I don’t want you in my phone Keep it to yourself Think you need some help But it won’t come from me I need you to leave I need you to, I need you to I need you to leave (x2)

I’ve been feeling disillusioned Like I’m losing my mind No more wasting my time How are you, I say “fine” Put it off for One or two more Days I won’t even lie Some days I don’t even shy Away from the evil eye, ohh I know they watching me They want me to get lost at sea But I got too much to do, I can’t leave Please believe I let too many people get in my way Too many F’s made me afraid But I change that today cause My name is RaFia And I’m to here to set the stage I’m here to let go of some rage I’m here to turn the leaf of the page I’m gonna make it big I’mma see my name in all of them lights I won’t get into anymore fights I’ll stop whenever I get tight I’m a bad mamma-jamma If you don’t know, you gon’ know soon Wipe the planet like a monsoon Step to me, you shrivel like a prune I thought I was finished, felt diminished I just had to eat my spinach Now I’m getting big and strong Now I sing songs, and I rap along And yeah I made this beat too

about

'Dizzillusions' is multimedia artist RaFia's whimsically boisterous arrival to the music scene. The 6-track self-produced EP puts several new notches in the Brooklyn artist's tool belt with playful rhythms, surgically sharp lyrics, and sing-song flows.

Pairing 'Dizzillusions' with her identically-titled multi-billboard video display in Times Square, RaFia already sees her name in lights.

With lyrics like "Now you know that I got bars" in Money Leaves (Don't Stop), "I pray nobody sees when the wounds start bleeding" in Dreamin', and "I just wanna know what it's like when I don't have your treble drowning out my bass" in Get Off 'Dizzillusions' delivers twelve-and-a-half minutes of ego, self-reflection, and a demand for respect.
