    SOUNDTRACK: Stay In My Corner by The Arcs, Teleport 2 Me, Jamie by KID CUDI, & Forget the Past by The Irrepressibles

    January 19, 2024 / 1 Comment

    Soundtrack to Kage by Maris Black

    Stay in My Corner by The Arcs for a book about Kage finding the man worth keeping in his corner.

    They can steal away my soul
    Hang it dangerously low
    I don’t care for they go
    ‘Cause I’ve been down there before, before

    Stay in my corner, babe
    Stay in my corner, please
    Stay in my corner, babe
    I will fight for you if you fight for me too

    Soundtrack to Kage: Unleashed by Maris Black

    Teleport 2 Me, Jamie by KID CUDI is Kage’s entrance song and secret message to Jamie so I just had to put it here. That scene slayed me!

    Getting in from the airport
    You getting in from the study group
    The only thing missing at this point
    Is bonafide chillin’ time with you
    I can’t stand the times when I’m alone at night
    And I feel your side of the bed and it’s cold
    Wide awake, I don’t know the time
    ‘Cause I’m too busy textin’ you on my phone

    Sayin’, I want you girl
    And I need your body right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me?)

    Soundtrack to Kage: Unmasked by Maris Black

    Forget the Past by The Irrepressibles for a book about Kage and Jamie, the past that haunted them, the present that challenged them, and the future they fought hard for.

    You’ll be the wave that will gain
    You’ll be the water on stain
    You’ll be there calling my name
    Jamie, Jamie
    You’ll have a warrant to kill
    All of my fears and then spill
    Into me all of your will
    Find me, find me
    Find me, find me
    Find me, find me
    My love, my love
    My love, my love
    You’ll be the essence of fire
    You’ll take hold of my desire
    You’ll make me bold and inspire
    Mold me, mold me

    I won’t always be a winner, babe
    In fact, I’m bound to burn
    All these bumps in the road, dear
    They’re just lessons we learned, we learned

    Stay in my corner, babe
    Stay in my corner, please
    Stay in my corner, babe
    I will fight for you if you fight for me too

    They can steal away my soul
    Hang it dangerously low
    I don’t care for they go
    ‘Cause I’ve been down there before, before

    Stay in my corner, babe
    Stay in my corner, please
    Stay in my corner, babe
    I will fight for you if you fight for me too

    We sit together forever
    By the color, TV glow
    Telling stories, allegories
    Letting ourselves go

    Stay in my corner, babe
    Stay in my corner, please
    Stay in my corner, babe
    I will fight for you if you fight for me to

    Getting in from the airport
    You getting in from the study group
    The only thing missing at this point
    Is bonafide chillin’ time with you
    I can’t stand the times when I’m alone at night
    And I feel your side of the bed and it’s cold
    Wide awake, I don’t know the time
    ‘Cause I’m too busy textin’ you on my phone

    Sayin’, I want you girl
    And I need your body right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me?)
    I want you girl
    I need your body right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me?)
    I want you girl
    Right here, right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me?)
    I want you girl
    Right here, right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me, baby?)

    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

    You call out to me through the light
    I know you must be close
    The moment when I realize it’s all in my mind
    The moment I hate the most
    Somebody help me out? Does anyone care?

    Can anyone hear me?
    Is there anyone there?
    I’m over the loneliness
    And I can’t close my eyes
    Without you by my side

    I want you girl
    And I need your body right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me?)
    I want you girl
    I need your body right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me?)
    I want you girl
    Right here, right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me?)
    I want you girl
    Right here, right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me, baby?)

    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
    Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

    Teleport to me
    Right here
    (Won’t you teleport to me, baby?)

    You’ll be the wave that will gain
    You’ll be the water on stain
    You’ll be there calling my name

    You’ll have a warrant to kill

    You’ll take hold of my desire
    You’ll make me bold and inspire
    Mold me, mold me
    You’ll be the eye of the storm
    You’ll be the letters I’ve worn
    You’ll be the dreams that I’ve torn
    Know me, know me
    Know me, know me
    Mold me, mold me
    My love, my love
    My love, my love
    Find me inside the calm of the storm where lovers decide
    What might come with the dawn
    And we sit on the grass and wait
    For machines and forget the past
    Find me inside the calm of the storm where lovers decide
    What might come with the dawn
    And we sit on the grass and wait
    For machines and forget the past
    You’ll be the wave that will gain
    You’ll be the water on stain
    You’ll be there calling my name

The prose takes getting used to but, overall, slow burn yet fiery, dark and angsty yet thrilling!
