Ibeyi - Transmission / Michaelion Lyrics






[Part I - "Transmission"]

[Choir:]
Transmission, transmission, transmission
Transmission, transmission, transmission

[Naomi:]
There must be a way out
Memories that bind
Revenge and loss now
Is the best word we got
To open all the doors spent
The love we should fire
Is mine and yours

[Lisa & Naomi:]
Transmission
Lighting in the layers of the past, at last
We sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
Facing a clearer sky (Transmission)
Sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
We sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
Facing a clearer sky (Transmission)
Sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)

Transmission
Lighting in the layers of the past, at last
We sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
Facing a clearer sky (Transmission)
Sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
We sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
Facing a clearer sky (Transmission)
Sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)

[Lisa:]
Sing, our arms are wide
We climb the walls
Dance on the beats of hearts
One and all

[Lisa & Naomi:]
Transmission
Lighting in the layers of the past, at last
We sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
Facing a clearer sky (Transmission)
Sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
We sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)
Facing a clearer sky (Transmission)
Sin in our dearest strife (Transmission)

Pies para que los quiero si tengo alas pa' volar...

Después de todas las horas vividas...
Sin más deseo que seguir hasta encontrarse
Lentamente. Con enorme inquietud
Pero con la certeza de que todo lo rige la "sección de oro"

Hay un acomodo celular. Hay un movimiento. Hay luz
Todos los centros son los mismos
La locura no existe. Somos lo mismo que ya fuimos y seremos
Sin contar con el estúpido destino

[Part II - "Michaelion"]

[Lisa:]
I've been thinking lately
How seasons fall apart back to the start
Should I share how I feel
Or bury it inside, or bury it inside

Suddenly, strange and quiet
Like underwater
Suddenly, strange and quiet
Like underwater

[Choir:]
Like underwater
Like underwater
Like underwater
Like underwater

Transmission, transmission, transmission
I don't what the water wanted
Transmission, transmission, transmission
I don't what the water wanted
I don't what the water wanted

[Lisa:]
You take, I give
And that the seasons flow
I am growing old
Can't you hear me?
The meaning of it all
Vibrations I recall

Suddenly, strange and quiet
Like underwater
Suddenly, strange and quiet
Like underwater

Suddenly, strange and quiet
Like underwater
Suddenly, strange and quiet
Like underwater

Pies para que los quiero si tengo alas pa' volar...

  1. A.... F....

    Las amo!

  2. N.... C....

    Beautiful

  3. j.... ....

    I see these everlasting opposing forces - one to create and one to destroy.
    I see a planet in the midst of the turmoil.
    What will the inhabitants choose?

  4. j.... ....

    You know, I started to look into who this band is and where they are from, but I think it's better this way - take the music and the experience they create for what it is.

  5. j.... ....

    This video needs to be shared.

  6. B.... ....

    Spiritual!

  7. m.... W....

    Cela mérite plus de vues...

  8. K.... M....

    Thank you Ibeyi for all the magic you both are creating. My souls is so happy to have found you.

  9. J.... J....

    It is difficult to even find your songs because your releases past three years are not under music. WTF. WHy do you think people are not listening to your great music? Because you are literally hiding it on your channel. Simple click economics. It has to be visible at a glance and has to load fast or the masses leave. SImple as that. I only found you because I have a good memory and dig deep to discover what certain artist are up to

  10. M.... G....

    Niiice!!!

  11. J.... M....

    UNDERRATED

  12. S.... G....

    I love you Gals!!!!!!!!⭐😃💛

  13. S.... I....

    Heard this on WRIR LP 97.3 FM (Richmond, VA) on the "Wednesday Breakfast Blend", this morning :) I Like This Song :) This young woman singing at 0:32 is very attractive, as is the other woman on this track :) Both have beautiful voices :)

    Mz Lee perfect description.

  46. J.... K....

    This song is like that tree. A beacon to space ensuring the cleanliness of our souls.

    Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. And, as I have found, it is the most unlikeliest of heroes that tends to take that fall.

    Rest in peace, 'ol tree.
    ✌🏼🖤😌

  47. K.... B....

    so deeply touching. the visuals are breathtakingly beautiful and soft, the story is heart wrenching, the voices so strong moving. all that combined made me tear up holymoly.

  48. A.... C....

  49. P.... O....

    Nicely done

  50. c.... c....

    You girls give me such life, thanks for introducing me to a whole new world of music ❤️

  71. S.... M....

    This is my favorite song from this album. And now I am so moved by the video.

  72. A.... L....

    This video made my cry. The song was already beautiful, but with this story of the Ténéré Tree... When they say "we happened." this is so cruelly true. Ibeyi is such a wonderful duet, I've had twice the occasion to see and hear them on stage and COME ON these were the best concerts I've ever attended ! I wouldn't have ever imagined to say that one day but they are pure magic. Divine creatures made real. Keep making the world better girls, you are an inspiration for lots of us ! Love.

  73. y.... m....

    This song is so beautiful and calming. True ART!

  74. S.... ....

    Imersive

  75. j.... a....

    Boa música

  76. L.... A....

    Ce clip est si beau... À l'image de cette chanson
    Je vous aime

  77. D.... L....

    we happened

  78. G.... A....

    Love every nanosecond of it

  79. V.... J....

    My gratitude towards the miracle of what Gaia offers💚

  80. J.... M....

    Une grande claque, merci mille fois 💞

  81. R.... M....

    PRA SEMPRE VOU TE AMARRRR POR TODA A MINHA VIDA EU VOU TE AMARRRRRRRRRRR DESESPERADAMENTEEEEEEE EU SEI QUE VOU TE AMAAAAAAAAR

  82. F.... S....

    My best friend had a tattoo of a big tree along the left side of her body. She was a strong, fearless, and caring woman...she died exactly one week ago today in a car accident. Your new video made me cry at first of sadness both for the tree and my friend, but later I realized that the tree has been immortalized by your video and in the stories that people tell about it...and so too will my friend live on in the memories of her loved ones. Gone, but not forgotten. Thank you for your art.

    F.... S....

    Sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing.

    F.... S....

    I'm creepy with your story and how awake you are enough to understand that everything is a cycle and everything is one thing, yes these girls are Goddesses, Genie, understand what we feel and feel what we understand.

    F.... S....

    Idk wut to say...so here my hug for u *hug hug hug*

    F.... S....

    My heart is with you, your friend is with you. I’m sending you so much love.

  83. M.... ....

    Beautiful! :)

  84. k.... ....

    I am amazed as always ♥️

  85. C.... X....

    This Song is SPIRITUAL!

  86. w.... ....

    What a fate for such a sacred tree, it resisted and defied unimaginable natural circumstances .. i'm in awe, inspired but distraught that - in the whole of that empty dry land, one intoxicated individual severed a cord to the past by an un natural cause, it's unreal but very real.

  87. S.... D....

    Actuellement je trouve qu'elles sont les meilleures cantatrices au monde..et de loin Bravo en tout cas !

  88. L.... C....

    J'aime........

  89. J.... ....

    What a wonderful song and an equally wonderful music video that is minimalistic, but yet so powerful!
    ❤ Ibeyi ❤

  90. K.... N....

    “Before, this tree was green and with flowers; now it is a colourless thorn tree and naked. I cannot recognise it — it had two very distinct trunks. Now there is only one, with a stump on the side, slashed, rather than cut a metre from the soil. What has happened to this unhappy tree? Simply, a lorry going to Bilma has struck it... but it has enough space to avoid it... the taboo, sacred tree, the one which no nomad here would have dared to have hurt with his hand... this tree has been the victim of a mechanic...[4]"

    Kadu Nunes i made a copy of this. ;)
