about

I had a lot of thoughts swirling around in my head that I wanted to let out. This song is dedicated to my friends and family, without whom this song would not be possible.

lyrics

Show my day ones for fun, making no dollars

Bury it in rewinding bars so they don’t bother

Carry it so me finding bars is not for nothing

But if we got something, We’ll hit the ground running

They thought we were fast, learning the new world

But we’re coming in last, we’re just the new turtles

If November’s for doom, that means September’s for

Zoomers taking human reality for whirl

Looking like a squirrel, not used to the change

But sooner more than later picking trash in La Grange, turn the

Page, no more trains, in your room or the commute, you’ll

Be driving every day, dressed like a fool in a suit,

And keep your music on mute, that’s what your boss demands

slowly losing your truth, inspiration is canned
Too much

New to do, yourself to harm, reviews to view,

Summers over take the cue or you lose, here’s one…

Retrospective derision of tracks we’re frantic making

Elect to part with the vision we had like Francis Bacon

Pick up the pen, try again your future fan is waiting

If you’re painting my portrait make sure your hand is shaking

Show my day ones for fun, making no dollars

Bury it in rewinding bars so they don’t bother

Carry it so me finding bars is not for nothing

But if we got something, We’ll hit the ground running

Writing it down so quick you drop it eh,

Wired and feeling sick so cop a break

Sit on the couch, blast Lupe,

K-dot, Andre, whatever compares to me

I know it’s it not fair to me, but I think it is fair to say

That this rapping is my food, liquor, joy, and pain entrapped in takes

All in one place, but wisdom was bare today

So watch what you say to me, ‘bout failing to share my brain

Show my day ones for fun, making no dollars

Bury it in rewinding bars so they don’t bother

Carry it so me finding bars is not for nothing

But if we got something, We’ll hit the ground running

Don’t even mention detentions sentenced for missing work

Or putting kids in a box because they’re passing notes

Too many people said “you’re just a bad listener”

Didn’t consider that maybe he wasn’t diagnosed

Any wonder he found comfort rhyming notes in his phone? As

curmudgeons we begrudgingly atone for our loans. Yeah your

passion may be lacking but “at least you’re set”

What, like those private school preachers grooming students for sex?!? Fuck that!

Obligation doesn’t buy an adult, we need to

free the generations from the lies they were told, spewing

lyrics won't relieve the trees from fires alone, but I’m

hoping we can cope with the impassionate drones, who tell you

“Give it up, you did enough, your shit is wack, your rent is up, piss

in a cup so pigs will cuff and take you to jail”, They will

Fail! While we’re in this room, we’ll rap to the end

Whether sold out seats, or just close friends, let’s send it! Yeah!

Show my day ones for fun, making no dollars

Bury it in rewinding bars so they don’t bother

Carry it so me finding bars is not for nothing

But if we got something, We’ll hit the ground running
