...Praise be to the fool

Who let you go

He didn't know you were special

Probably told you life was black and white

He was only trying to dim your light

Well if you with it I can show you what it's hittin' for

A little vision and precision and were good to go

I don't want to see you fall apart

Girl I don't know where to start

You're such a work of art

I'm just here to add a little color to the canvas.

Baby, red is for the heart

I'm just here to add a little color to the canvas

Your eyes a crazy shade of blue

I'm just here to add a little color to the canvas

Can't ever make another you

I'm just here to add a little color to the canvas. - SiR ♫

They don't know what to do with me

Ain't lookin' back, keepin' it movin'

I know exactly how to do this

Keep smilin', make 'em wild out

Stay loud, don't dumb it down

Hold my crown up to the sky

Hold your crown up to the sky

Hey, time for us to go and get the money, y'all

Floodgates open, gonna take it all

I am a diamond 'cause of pressure

The bigger the trial, bigger the blessin'

For days and days

I want to be still

Keep me running through this maze.

I got to be still

For days and days

For days and days.

Whispers in my head they keep me feenin'

But now I close my eyes

Visions overboard they keep me reelin'

Baby, I can't hide.

I want to be still

For days and days

I want to be still

Keep me running through this maze

I got to be still

For days and days

For days and days

Home of the dominos

Home of the two piece and a pepper

Home of the teeth is gold

Home of the Never Miss

Home of the platinum hits

I'm a Southern Gul...

Countryfied

Everything I eat is fried

Got a Southern drawl

I'm an orange moon

Reflecting the light of the sun.

Many nights he was alone

Many, many, many nights

His light was too bright so they turned away

And he stood alone

Every night and every day

Then he turned to me

He saw his reflection in me

And he smiled at me, when he turned to me

Then he said to me...

How good it is, how good it is

How good it is, how good it is

I'm an orange moon

I'm brighter than before

Brighter than ever before

I'm an orange moon and I shine so bright

'Cause I reflect the light of my sun, ooh

I praise the day, he turned my way

And smiled at me

He, gets to smile and I get to be orange. - Erykah Badu ♫

Gi stares up at the moon while soakin' up it's bright light...❤️

When the night is home

Controlling for me

'Til my right is wrong

Nothing's the way it seems

When things go wrong

I know me, know me

I cannot move on

I cannot move on

Everytime I...

Close my eyes I...

Dream about your face

Nothing can replace

Everytime I...

Close my eyes, your

Voice I can't retrace

Nothing can replace

Nothing can replace

I know you told me that you won't be long

Time lapse and I'm trapped in another's arms...

I am too cold, I long for your warmth

I'm not me, got me

I cannot move on

I cannot move on

Far away

I'm all alone

I'm on my own..." - Ravyn Lenae ♫

Gi gazes out her window into the night sky & ponders her future ❤️

So what if your head sports a couple of grey hairs

Same here, and actually I think it's funky

(In a Claire Huxtable type way)

Call me when that big ole house gets lonelyfied

And I'll teleport from here to there

You show me how it's supposed to be done

I'll make sure you have young fun. - André 3000 ♫

Gi turns to the side + gives her most sophisticated pose for Nat's camera...❤️

I ask my mighty + powerful Ancestors which I have in my blood, my spirit + my soul, to come forward + protect me against my enemies as well as those who wish to harm me.

I ask to receive understanding, respect + love from all those who meet me.

I ask that you clear my mind of any unwanted thoughts + inner voices of doubt.

Please give me the strength to silence my inner fear so that my true character can shine through.

We're one, we're many, we're strong, we're love, we're like the wind sweeping in to create good, we're also like the storm that can destroy all evil. We're all together, we're family, we fear nothing.

I thank you in advance for all that you have done + will do for me.

Help me stand up without any fear of pain, with the wisdom to be able to control myself + with the power to defeat anything against me.

She is variously associated with crossroads, entrance-ways, light, witchcraft, knowledge of herbs and poisonous plants, ghosts, necromancy, and sorcery. She holds the keys to the underworld, mysteries, transitions, & tranformations. She's the keeper of wisdom + the unconcious mind.

Gi holds the keys to all things seen + unseen under the moonlit sky above...❤️

"What do you want from me?

Tell me what you really want

What do you want from me

Do you know what you really want?

I gotta be who I wanna be

Stop judging everyone and everything

Draining all the beautiful energy away

Changing faces, always wasting time.

Trying figure out who you are

I'll never be who you want me to be. You be you, let me be me.

What do you want from me?

Tell me what you really want

What do you want from me

Gi adjusts her suspenders + afro as she takes her stance...❤️

...It was a beautiful day

A day for so much fun

I had my white T on

Had on my new Air Ones

I was gonna pull out the coupe and drop the top

I was gonna ride around and hug the block

Then she called and said I'm on my way

I got a few hours, I might as well as stay

Now I'm gonna lay back and watch her drop her top

Now I'm gonna record the s--t rewind and watch

Ooh ooh ooh ooh now after 2 hours of footage

Ooh ooh ooh ooh her body couldn't continue to do it

Ooh ooh ooh ooh she looks at me and says please don't go nowhere

Give me a second to breathe

It must be magic.

She loves the way I give her the magic

She wants a sugar daddy

She wants me to keep giving her the magic

She loves it cause I can do it all. - Joe ♫

Gi shufles her tarot deck + pulls The Empress card...❤️

Quiet moments, loud details.

A contemporary portrait built on color, contrast, and expression. The geometric face paint and intense gaze create a visual dialogue between identity, performance, and perception.

Photo taken at Sony Alpha Workshop.

A conceptual portrait exploring the tension between chance and control.

The scattered cards, theatrical costume, and hidden identity turn the figure into a symbol rather than a person — a portrait of probability, performance, and the chaos behind calculated risks.

**🎬 Prompt cinématographique hyperréaliste :**

Portrait ultra détaillé d’une jeune femme à la chevelure flamboyante rouge cuivre, volumineuse et ondulée, capturant la lumière comme des braises vivantes. Son visage est centré, symétrique, avec une peau lumineuse aux textures réalistes, pores visibles, léger éclat naturel. Ses yeux vert émeraude, perçants et humides, fixent directement l’objectif avec une intensité presque hypnotique, cernés de cils longs et naturels.

Éclairage dramatique de type *Rembrandt*, venant légèrement de côté, sculptant le visage avec des ombres douces et profondes, créant un contraste cinématographique riche. Reflets subtils dorés sur la peau, donnant une ambiance chaude et enveloppante.

Arrière-plan sombre, texturé, aux teintes brun profond et ambre brûlé, légèrement flou (*bokeh* subtil), évoquant une atmosphère intimiste et mystérieuse. La profondeur de champ est très faible, mettant uniquement le visage en netteté absolue.

Détails hyperréalistes : micro-reflets dans les yeux, légères imperfections de la peau, cheveux individuels visibles, texture satinée des lèvres. Style inspiré de la photographie de mode haut de gamme et du cinéma d’auteur.

Qualité 8K, ultra sharp focus, rendu photoréaliste, color grading chaud et cinématographique, contraste élevé mais naturel, ambiance élégante et envoûtante.

Objectif 85mm, f/1.4, ISO bas, rendu HDR naturel.

**🎬 Ultra-detailed cinematic hyperrealistic prompt:**

Ultra-detailed portrait of a young woman with voluminous, flowing copper-red hair, glowing like living embers as it catches the light. Her face is centered and symmetrical, with luminous skin rendered in hyperrealistic detail, visible pores, and a natural subtle sheen.

Her piercing emerald green eyes, slightly moist and intensely expressive, stare directly into the camera with a hypnotic presence. Long, natural eyelashes frame her gaze.

Dramatic *Rembrandt-style lighting* from a slight side angle sculpts her face, creating soft yet deep shadows and a rich cinematic contrast. Warm golden highlights gently kiss the skin, enhancing the intimate and atmospheric mood.

Dark, textured background in deep brown and burnt amber tones, softly blurred with a subtle *bokeh* effect, evoking a mysterious and intimate setting. Extremely shallow depth of field keeps the face in razor-sharp focus.

Hyperrealistic details: micro-reflections in the eyes, subtle skin imperfections, individual strands of hair visible, soft satin-like texture on the lips. Style inspired by high-end fashion photography and auteur cinema.

8K resolution, ultra sharp focus, photorealistic rendering, warm cinematic color grading, high yet natural contrast, elegant and captivating mood.

Shot on 85mm lens, f/1.4, low ISO, natural HDR rendering.

Gi twirls & prances for the camera with tousled hair while showing her best form in her creme de menthe Leah & Flor bikinis...❤️

his hands move through his hair. the gesture means nothing and everything. the tattoo tells one story, the eyes tell another. somewhere between these truths he exists. the camera finds him here, in this small pause. he does not look away.

Thanks Antonietta! for my amazingly drawn digital illustration ♥

he looks past the frame at something only he can see. the cigarette rests where it belongs. his curls fall like questions without answers. the camera finds him in this small absence. he does not return. the photograph keeps what he left behind.

his hand moves through his hair while his eyes stay fixed on the lens. the tattoo catches shadow. the gesture says one thing, the gaze another. he holds both without contradiction. the light carves him from darkness. he allows it.

...Can we make love?

Heard about me baby, yes, you know how I get down

Say you like it rough but can I toss your ass around?

I see you tryna take my soul from me...

Look me in my eyes and take control of me
