my musings

december 2, 2021-

i uploaded my 1st single on Distrokid to release on all platforms december 17th, 2021!!! OMFG!!! i’m excited, nervous, relieved and READY! mom, my brother and i were on facetime while i went through the upload process—oh, and i’m reeeeally hoping my cover art is accepted because the original image i used was small and had to be enlarged. SO!...it probably pixelated and so little old me is left waiting for the approval or rejection from Distrokid. 

another thing, i emailed Distrokid to ask when i’ll will know about the picture? oh yes, and my single is called #9; i’m really proud of it. it’s taken me too long to get to this point of being ready to share my sound with the world but here I am

--- I AM ART.

i wrote this as a poem…but I’m thinking it might be a song? i’m thinking it’ll be a talk-singing track…“ifeboats (freestyle)” – jorja smith style. that’s how i hear it

the king

V1 not so long ago this heart belonged to thieves
lying naked
at your mercy, baby, please
do what you say so, so 
i’d honor, i’d obey 
all of this and you bury me,
you bury me in my grave

until i am yours, or you are mine
you call me by your name
this our version…interior design,
it’s such a twisted game
full of golden jewels like it’s your right
do you bring me life?
can i stand the fight?
or do i bow to you and just lay, delight

C well they say the king only kills what he loves
he does it all in vain
built me up just to strip me down
so he could lay his claim to fame
they say the king only kills what he loves
tell myself lies to deflect
but even when i rationalize
he spells it with an X

V2 was it always like this before
marching in my chains
says i don’t even want you anymore
hold tight to all my shame
all this dependency, tendency
became my food, am i insane?
and if so, tell me who, yea who should be to blame?

go on release me from this quiet hell
another bottle of empty wine
uncast this fucking god damn spell
stop freezin’ all my time
every saint used to be a sinner
and when i learn to cleanse my mind
a new order to begin
and for me, my path, defined

C well they say the king only kills what he loves
he does it all in vain
built me up just to strip me down
so he could lay his claim to fame
they say the king only kills what he loves
tell myself lies to deflect
but even when i rationalize
he spells it with an X

V3 your game don’t taste so sweet no more
heavy is the crown
the weight of wealth
met with raging stealth
was lost but now i’m found
make you say it
“wouldn’t it be tight, if we found some solid ground?”
nah but i’ll spin you around
show em’ this my town
take every last one of you motherfuckers down
