From the recording Subway
Fusing a new hiphop sound with soul of the 70s & the smooth groove of 90s slow jams, Cee Nario brings a new flavor to the R&B scene with soothing vocals over a hot SoulChef ambient-soul instrumental canvas that will have you either vibing in the club, bumping it in your car, or sitting back and relaxing as it pumps through your home speakers!
Originally produced, written, and recorded during the summer of 2010, "Subway" laid dormant among the musical archives of both singer Cee Nario and producer SoulChef. They continued working together on and off through the years as they focused on their own individual and group projects, but in late 2017, Cee Nario began performing the "new" song for the first time at live shows. After receiving an overwhelmingly positive response, Cee Nario decided it was time to dust off the original song, remaster the track, and plan a music video. With SoulChef on board, the duo decided to independently release their first official single together in Spring 2018 for the masses to enjoy.

Lyrics
One for the treble
Two for the bass
And I guarantee...
Cee Nario and SoulChef
One for the money, two for the go
Three to get ready, and four so you can show me your...
(Show me your ticket, ticket)
Straight to the back, you can hide
Sippin' your way to the high life
(So tell me why you trippin', trippin’?)
Places to go, ‘cause in your house no one's home
(No pain, no shame, the underground train
Your brain remain drained, so wasted)
Hey love, hey love, they care for you
But you were on your way downtown
And you know, I gotta hold you down (issue this warning)
Don't stay too long on that subway
(Or you may end up on these streets
On these streets, on these streets, on these streets)
Don't you get caught up on that subway
(Or you may end up on these streets
On these streets, on these streets, on these streets)
Forget who you know, you got places to go
(No pain, no shame, the underground train
Your brain remain drained, so wasted)
Hey love, hey love, they came for you
But you were on your way downtown
And you know, I’ma hold you down (issue this warning)
Don't stay too long on that subway
(Or you may end up on these streets [streets!], on these streets [streets!]
On these streets [on these streets], on these streets [on these streets])
Don't you get caught up on that subway
(Or you may end up on these streets, on these streets
On these streets, on these streets)
Come home
Come home
