Chance The Rapper & The Social Experiment - No Better Blues

Are you lonely?
Or just alone>
Do you have no one call your own?
Could you cherish this memory?
Hold it close to see what it can be
Hold it close to see what we can be

So are you faithful, to yourself?
Are you harmonious, like no one else?
So tell me story, with magic that cool.
Then hold me in the night and
let me stay home from school.
But are you faithful to yourself?
Are you mystical in opinion of wealth?
Could you relish me with an anecdote?
I'll wade to sea.
Could you break my heart with perfect symmetry?
Perfect symmetry 
(door knob squeak)

"Marzipan" is the first single off of Fauna Shade's debut full length Baton Rouge, written about a brief romantic encounter that singer Scotty Smith didn't want to end so soon. Like the song, the encounter started so sweet and easy but somehow perished like that corner plant that just didn't get water and never bloomed.

Fauna Shade is the music and sounds developed by frontman and Everett, Washington native Scotty Smith. Smith, now 21, combines psychedelia and pop sensibility from years spent experimenting, writing and recording tracks in his parents garage, located between the Puget Sound and Cascade Mountains. Joined live by drummer Richie Owen and bassist Derek Johnston, the band draws inspiration from early MGMT, Coco Rosie and T. Rex, while somehow forming a sound uncorrupted and free of pretense. 

This single is the first release from their debut full length Baton Rouge, recorded and co-produced by Jeff Southard at SWOON Studios (Night Beats, Tangerine) in Tacoma, Washington. Baton Rouge is out on April 28, 2015.
