Telltale 04:52
Telltale Hey mister special, aren’t you an unusual exception You roll your eyes, your eyes Always looking for allies To help you go through with your lies But when the day goes by You pledged your love to crime You go alone, alone, alone, alone in grime Devil’s gonna save your time All you have to do is close your eyes to cries He doesn’t know he doesn’t know he doesn’t know That you love him so He wouldn’t care he wouldn’t care he wouldn’t care If you weren’t there at all All day and night no good intensions Strive for ascension causing dissention Are you getting enough of attention? Wonder why your cards are setting them against you Pushing your luck, aggressive not assertive Jack of all traits, but master of nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing. He doesn’t know he doesn’t know he doesn’t know That you love him so He wouldn’t care he wouldn’t care he wouldn’t care If you weren’t there at all Are you living a lie? I ain’t living a lie Are you living a lie? Charming your way through life Take your time Go ahead with your rhymes But you gotta be better, be better why You remember those times When we were out of our minds Well you gotta stop and turn Cos this ain’t gonna take you no further Charming your way through life Take your time Go ahead with your rhymes But you gotta be better, be better why You remember those times When we were out of our minds Well you gotta stop and turn Cos this ain’t gonna take you no further He doesn’t know he doesn’t know he doesn’t know That you love him so He wouldn’t care he wouldn’t care he wouldn’t care If you weren’t there at all Are you living a lie? I ain’t living a lie Are you living a lie? Charming your way through life Take your time Go ahead with your rhymes But you gotta be better, be better why You remember those times When we were out of our minds Well you gotta stop and turn Cos this ain’t gonna take you no further Charming your way through life Take your time Go ahead with your rhymes But you gotta be better, be better why You remember those times When we were out of our minds Well you gotta stop and turn Cos this ain’t gonna take you no further Are you living a lie? I ain’t living a lie Are you living a lie?

Dark Blue 04:49
Dark Blue When the sun is down My world is so lovely Then I walk alone And I know where I’m going I could walk with you But in solitude, I flourish When I close my eyes The time is mine I see dark blue colours In the eyes of my lover I see rivers flowing To the place where I’m going I see dark blue colours On the road that I chose to take I could share my home Oo with you, darling But I still hold the key To the door so ancient I should let it go So, I could find you But then sun comes down And I ponder When I walk alone The world is mine I see dark blue colours In the eyes of my lover I see rivers flowing To the place where I’m going I see dark blue colours On the road that I chose to take I see dark blue colours In the eyes of my lover I see rivers flowing To the place where I’m going I see dark blue colours On the road that I chose to take

My Garden 04:42
My Garden Walking beside you, would not like to find you alone (oh) Minutes to hours still something between us is so wrong Sun’s ripping my skin, you know we both ‘ve done it before And we both know how it goes… At night owl won’t reach the moon anymore My own howl will grossly climb up your door I want it to end See I want it to end but it won’t I want it to end (I want it to end) See I want it to end but it won’t It’s so cold when we lay in the grass And when people pass, the grass grows around us It’s so cold when we lay And the grass grows around us (Making fire) Little by little I’m burning the love of my own (In my garden) Oak in my garden slowly falls down to the ground (Screaming flowers) Sun’s ripping my skin, you know we both ‘ve done it before (I’m so tired) And we both know how it goes… At night owl won’t reach the moon anymore My own howl will grossly climb up your door I want it to end See I want it to end but it won’t I want it to end (I want it to end) See I want it to end but it won’t It’s so cold when we lay in the grass And when people pass, the grass grows around us It’s so cold when we lay And the grass grows around us

Ella 06:39
Ella I see the way you look at her Red lips and flowery dress You find her alone at the bar She’s waiting for someone to feel her way You find your way to her She’s from out of town She’s not slowing down with you Cos she’s not looking for love Oo dimmed lights, you love rainy nights Maybe you should take her out Slowly lose yourself in the silence Forget who you are Slowly disappears oh and the sense of time Slowly disappears I see the way you look at her ivory skin oh So light and graceful slippin’ through your fingers She’s waiting for someone to feel, to feel her way You find your way to her She’s from out of town She’s not slowing down with you Cos she’s not looking for love Mm dimmed lights, she loves rainy nights Maybe you should take her out Slowly lose yourself in the silence Forget who you are Slowly disappears oh and the sense of time Slowly disappears Slowly lose yourself in the silence Forget who you are Slowly disappears oh and the sense of time Slowly disappears Slowly lose yourself in the silence Forget who you are Slowly disappears oh and the sense of time Slowly disappears Slowly lose yourself in the silence Forget who you are Slowly disappears oh and the sense of time Slowly disappears

Love Bestows 03:51
Love Bestows Light will reach me and I will have to, I will have to let go In the morning I confine my soul I feel your fingers running through my hair, But I don’t know if you’re here I don’t see anybody that I think I know I… Why…I…Lie…To my own mind…My own mind… It lies in my mind (my mind, my mind, my mind) Say it’ll stop cos I cannot fight It lies in my mind Make it stop cos I cannot fight Focus don’t close your eyes (my mind, my mind, my mind) Stay here cos I cannot die It lies in my mind Clearly, I see your face crumble, your eyes no longer know Can’t hear what you’re saying and you don’t listen to me I close the door you close the curtain, this way we may keep it in I don’t wanna stay and I don’t feel like going home I… Why…I…Lie…To my own mind…My own mind… It lies in my mind (my mind, my mind, my mind) Say it’ll stop cos I cannot fight It lies in my mind Make it stop cos I cannot fight It lies in my mind (my mind, my mind, my mind) Stay here cos I cannot die It lies in my mind It lies in my mind (my mind, my mind, my mind) Say it’ll stop cos I cannot die It lies within my mind

about

While Cultivo's music spans a range of contemporary styles, it is inspired by artists such as Hiatus Kaiyote, Khruangbin, Vulfpeck, Snarky puppy, CHIC, Funkadelic, Amy Winehouse & Red Hot Chili Peppers.

“The band benefits from its multicultural background to create this unique sound… While Taylor, Adams and trumpet player Ben Carthy are British nationals, Deveikyte, Torres and Sousa (of Lithuania, Ecuador and Portugal, respectively) are able to draw upon a literal another world of influences to guide Cultivo’s sound." - BOBBY WALKER
