Act of Love 05:11
ACT OF LOVE (LYRICS) HOOK: I’ve got so much love inside/ My soul is buzzing/ I can’t hold my love in/ Now I gotta walk it/ Now I gotta walk it out/ I’ve got so much love inside/ My soul is buzzing/ Talk a little, live the motto/ “Walk a little, give a lot of”/ Now I gotta walk it/ Now I gotta walk it out/ (2x) Verse1: This reminds of the Oceanside Pier on the 4th of July/ Before the drinks gone and Cops role by/ This reminds of a drive in the heat of the sun rays on a Sunday/ With “Summertime” and “Luchini” on repeat/ This reminds of my young days, with tackle Football at the beach/ Riding waves, rockin’ a Wave Cap trying to keep my Rows neat/ Acting foolish, we’d walk the shore for ladies go and seek/ And no ones stepping to us, ‘cause me and my Bros deep/ This reminds of a cold sip on a warm night, where’d the day go/ discussing Micro Brews from San Diego/ This reminds of them endless cyphers in the parking lot/ And when we say we Freestyle, that means its off the top, no premeditated/ Late night sessions with a potency/ ‘Cause I’m from North County, and we breed some dope eMCees/ This reminds of a drive in the heat of the sun rays on a Sunday/ “It was a Good Day”, “Back in the Days” both on repeat (not a kid anymore)/ This reminds of a backyard boogie and a BBQ/ You know you are my loved one if I’m back there trying to argue you/ This reminds of a group of Skaters tricking candid/ I watch they bring me joy even though they seem to never land it/ This reminds of a group of 50 standing up shore/ To watch their homie baptize, now 50’s in an uproar/ This reminds of a drive in the heat of the sun rays on a Sunday/ With “Summertime” and “Luchini” on repeat (This is to what)/ HOOK: I’ve got so much love inside/ My soul is buzzing/ I can’t hold my love in/ Now I gotta walk it/ Now I gotta walk it out/ I’ve got so much love inside/ My soul is buzzing/ Talk a little, live the motto/ “Walk a little, give a lot of”/ Now I gotta walk it/ Now I gotta walk it out/ Bridge: I let my feet speak truth to those who haven’t got a clue/ because one act of love is worth a thousand words I rap to you/ Yeah, a thousand words I rap to you/ One act of love is worth a thousand words I rap/ (2X) Poem: And I’ll be honest, us artists, we use so many words yet we say so little/ I aim to be the opposite, I know I met you by the ocean, but let me take you to a palace of stars/ Verse 2: Galaxy bars yo the black Sulu is back/ Who knew I’d be that next Rap Guru in fact/ You can google this cat/ I teach a love based on action, but often times I’m frugal with that/ Like the time I met a man with no shoes and tried to give him mine/ But next thing it blew my mind/ As he respectfully declined, ‘cause all he really wanted to get from me/ Is a way to pass the time and what I do know is that/ When he asked me, “aye yo you got a way to play this music?/ I’ve got a pair of headphones but aint no way to use it”/ Grabbed my iPod then thought, “he ‘gon probably loose it”/ “I’m sorry bro”, I left there feeling pseudo and whack/ He was homeless I approached with a nod, and a greeting/ out the norm I could’ve sworn it was God that planned the meeting/ Tried to give where he was lacking its odd, the man was needing I could see it/ I wonder if his noodles in tact/ Then it hit me, I should’ve just asked him/ I decided what he needed and intent determined action/ I left the man no better than we met, bet/ Just telling stories through this music like the Kubo of Rap/ Bridge: I let my feet speak truth to those who haven’t got a clue/ because one act of love is worth a thousand words I rap to you/ Yeah, a thousand words I rap to you/ One act of love is worth a thousand words I rap come one/ HOOK: I’ve got so much love inside/ My soul is buzzing/ I can’t hold my love in/ Now I gotta walk it/ Now I gotta walk it out/ I’ve got so much love inside/ My soul is buzzing/ Talk a little, live the motto/ “Walk a little, give a lot of”/ Now I gotta walk it/ Now I gotta walk it out/

about

On all major digital outlets (iTunes, Spotify, etc.)

"Act of Love” is a nostalgic soundtrack for the Summer Solstice. Hear Nomis reflect on past Summers of his youth while reminding you about some of your own personal favorite memories under the sun. In typical Nomis fashion, the story doesn’t end there. Listen as the music evolves, the tempo builds and “Act of Love” morphs into the backing of a live band. At which point we hear Nomis share a refreshing story of an encounter with a homeless man that left him with new perspective. “Act of Love” belongs on your backyard BBQ playlist today.
