Empress Of – Realize You

Empress Of is Brooklyn’s Lorely Rodriguez, who has a voice as sweet and seductive as Lana del Rey (albeit with much more impressive range), but she expertly channels dizzyingly bizarre vocal acrobatics like those of Bjork or Dirty Projectors’ Amber Coffman, in a Grimes-ian falsetto, over a mesmerizing beat that’s like a confrontational take on classic dream-pop.

Empress Of – Realize You

Empress Of – Realize You Lyrics:
you want to let it be
but the beat is different every time
crying is a crime
because you love to do it every time

grow a little more
and you let go a little more
and if the circumstances change
you can learn to play the game

freedom ain’t free
if i can’t get free with you
just like me ain’t me
if i can’t be me with you

realize you

i want to be your boyfriend
and i want to be your girlfriend
and i want to take you to there
and i want to watch you do it

but you grow a little more
and you let go a little more
and if the circumstances change
you can learn to play the game

freedom ain’t free
if i can’t get free with you
just like me ain’t me
if i can’t be me with you
realize you.
have you. been you. with you.
lately?
because you haven’t been you with me
realize you.
