Unreleased snippet from February 24, 2023 live at Terminal 5


Lyrics:
I keep the key to your heart for incidentals
Tunnel vision, stuck like barnacles on what's propping the big picture
Take it long for the ride
Long enough, we ended up fine for once, finally (???)
The heavy measure that I'm in
The message couldn't be missed
The he-

performed multiple times from 2023 to 2024, one of the most popular from Hawaii in 2023.



Lyrics:
Bells rung
Send a mail up high to the sky home that I fell from
Bail us out the vine, mask over my eyes just like a welder
Tails puttin out a binds baptized in the fires applaud failure
I tried to tell you
You never gonna get a rise out of a real one
Tough like Ryan spelt Orion size heavyweight titles on a belt tucked
Flying in on a wine i hit a maelstrom wild side that I am bro
I see you ain’t moved in a while
Ain’t gonna lie, you probably should getcha sails up
Time’ll tell who the hell won
Promise I don’t know who would sell ya
Bear cubs, head hunt while out there probably do it for breadcrumbs
Provided shelter
Dug well enough to find some kind of wealth
Minding to myself, gumboots the bottom started to melt
So I felt stuck, steel cut not showing the shield, love
Spill blood

Staggered In - Earl Sweatshirt

Part of Outtheway! performed live at the BUKU Festival on March 23, 2019.



Lyrics:
Please get out the fucking way
My brother told me that he can't get it any other way
I'ma need a bunch of space
We crunchin' numbers for the day on gang shit
Under gray clouds every summer it ain't rainin'
We don't take crumbs from off the loaf
Hoe you gon' pay me what you owe me
Niggas lying under oath in their arraignment
Flea shit, niggas not flee, you got fleas
Bitch, you mangy, labeled
Motions only, we don't go the same speed
Shoot ya shot, it start to take a toll
That never grazed me, play your role
We got the juice and all the pulp
We scooped your main squeeze
Chubby and I'm dangly
Run me up the totems off his waist
The rattle snakes
You niggas shakin' in ya socks
Operation get atonement
It ain't safe to say you made it
We gon' make it like P and Jada, praises to The Lox
Nothing sacred but the codes
But we crack 'em like the locks
Give me flowers while I'm breathing
Then parade me when I'm pushin' daisies
Cookin' baby, maybe I could try
Mood fluctuating like the changes in the tides
God unresponsive-

Lyrics:

[Intro Skit: "The Incredible Hulk (TV Series 1977–1982)"]
Dr. David Banner, Physician/Scientist, searching for a way to tap into the hidden strengths that all humans have
Then an accidental overdose of gamma radiation alters his body chemistry
And now, when David Banner grows angry or outraged, a startling metamorphosis occurs
The creature is driven by rage and pursued by an investigative reporter
Mr. McGee, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry

[Verse]
(Yessir!)
Keep coming of age, on another page
To my mother baby
My love come with reservations for two
Got on my own, that’s age three
Stood up in my seat at the table
The blue [?]
I take it, I'm ready for war
They built me this way, I might just come [?]
I hate [?]
They pay me, I ball up my fingers
My heart and my thought off the miles of road
You would take for the inches I gave you
It feel like the walls is closin' in on me so they gon' get caved in
Been spoke, and picked over the bones
In the closet for your entertainment
[?]
My memory foggy, the dimmest it’s been in a minute
I can dig it
Recall when it hit me
Like these niggas gotta be kidding, not resilient
I pick up my side of the script
For the time he was sippin'
[?]
Blue Benjamin, all my friends dead
[?]
[?] I misstep, I plan on whatever-
I fell in love with the syntax
I fell in love with the limerick
When shit always went bad in flash, that's like a Lemony Snicket
And times it was tragedy, it make you laugh
We had to be stand up niggas
With the foot that don't stand on trenches
So the crooks in my camp make sense
Plead the fifth and I handle business
Rally up, [?] the riches
[?] like I had no limbs
With the foot that don't stand on trenches

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
-love cut a little deeper
Don’t trust the leaf only the ones in the bleachers
2016 I had a dream of my son crawling 'round on the ceiling and I ain’t never seen them
Finally found a meaning condominium for me, him and his mama keep the sweet digs 

[Refrain]
The team did when I was down and down disbelieving, I forgot to
(? Bitch)
The team did when I was down and down disbelieving I forgot to sing it
I forgot a critic caught me (???) whopping out the bottle, drinking
I never got on (???)
High quality old lean spilling out the nozzle leaking 
Its not a problem, I released it

[Hook]
I released it, I released it
I released it
I released it
I re-, I re-, I released it
I released it

[Verse 2]
Big stepper, I don't think your tiny cleats fit me
This level took an awful lot to reach, applying pressure for the diamonds that you seek lifted
Heavy metals that repeats precious 
That's why the belly of the beast hemorrhage 
I got it out the side of these stitches 
I saw you jogging ain't no free liftin' 
I'm at the morning without pretension
I kept on calling, kept on re-sending
Its like I'm born to play a (???) game
I put a quarter in and it changed me
I (???) the law like I ain't seek danger
I pray to God the devil sleep angry
I'm at the morning when I-
Yeah, yeah,
I pray to God the devil sleep angry 
I'm at the morning without pretension 
I kept on calling, kept on re-sending
Its like I'm born to play a (???) game
I put a quarter in and it changed me
I'm at the morning without pretension 
I kept on calling, kept on re-sending
And it ain't reaching me

The Team Did (I Released It) [2024 England]- Earl Sweatshirt

Performed live repeatedly in 2023. First at the Couleur Cafe in Brussels, then The Novo, then at the Outbreak Festival and other places, but most popularly from the Outbreak Festival, which is what this one is.



Lyrics:

[Verse]
Somethin' had a hold on me since I was lil, bro
Staff member still stoned, I had 'em at will call
She know where to go for the passionate feel
Fractured appeal and then I had to peel off
Mademoiselle, get bedazzled with gemstones
I chase my own tail, it's a pattern that's well known
You know you lame as hell, stripes on me like Shell Toes
I told the pale bitch I was from Depeche Mode
Nah, I'm just playing I'm from OVO XO
Ten toes down like Frederick Flintstone
Presto, now for the rest of the trick
No use in tryin' stop inevitable shit
The Chupacabra, not really only a myth, bro
I slew the giant, too defiant for the big role
And threw the lighter fluid on what's left of the script
The truth is I was outside cooling, ready to dip
I don't know why you courting the idea of getting gone
It's not just bones
Two sparks, too far-flung to run home
You lost, you softer than crushed wool
In the cut, on the wall like Rust-Oleum
Mister come treat this block like a footstool
I paid the cost, seen it all like the Goodwill
I take a lap through the stars like the Goodyear
I take a stand, took the shot, never stood still
Never mishandled the rock, and I'm plugged in
Do my little dance on your block, like One Wish
You stuck with the scam 'cuz the facts kinda ugly
I flew to Japan and blew racks in Roppongi
Capital country, couple bails in the luggage came in tax-free
So I'ma cut a sale for you cousin
Naturally I'm inclined to feel for your struggle but my palette never got acquired 'nough for the fuck shit
You stay steppin' out of line they feel they should cut you
Black cats bloody scat pack gon dust em
Last laugh chuckle, glass on half-empty
Mask half-pulled up, but that dropped quickly
Hands on, pat-down man upon call entry
At the house, skippin' every crash out mission
Gotta move tack holler 12, watch ya 6 kid
I'll hold ya back down 'til the bitter ending
Globetrotting like The Flash
One city to the next, fuck with me off the strength
Go ghost like Casper
I promise you ain't seen the last of me yet
Globetrotting like The Flash
One city to the next, fuck with me off the strength
Go ghost like Casper
Promise you ain't seen the last of me yet
I'm only, yo, uh

[Chorus]
My friend, I'm only cleanin' up my half of the mess
I'm only leaving 'cuz I have to, my friend
I'm only leaving 'cuz I have to, my friend
I'm only cleanin' up my half of the mess
I'm only leaving 'cuz I have to, my friend


Plugged In (2023 Outbreak Festival) - Earl Sweatshirt

Performance of Sores, usually called Freddy Krueger or Albatross, at Camp Flog Gnaw in 2019. Was also performed multiple times in 2022, once in 2023, and once in 2024. 



Lyrics:
'Hunnid thousand bruises
Pour me water I reconstitute constant movement
Proven grounds, I fell down, I was Harry's student
Tase your leash, stripes on me like I'm Freddy Krueger, shaded the elm tree
You know I blew up before I grew up, you're smart
I guess you know what pressure do, huh?
Serengeti pulchritude on a petty new one
Keep the Betty Boops just
Tell em send the fetti through us
Stupid
Which race is you willing to run?
Strong filaments, I'm finna print me a gun
We all militant
Omnipotence, I’m dealing with source, you all filler
Con-killer consortium
Mob business
Mav getting the torch, Mach lit it
Five nine, nine point five size foot on the door
Kicking it
We all in live, nigga galore
Know I've been here before
Cry rivers, swim to the shore, and chop timber
I'm building a fort, war time
It's final resort, but it's not a resort, I'm
Disciplining the thoughts
Ain't no way we gon be
Winning them all but we embark
Eat a loss by the seas like mally Mall
Keep your albatross, and your magic beans
I got a heart pulling strings and I'm
Climbing stalks, harking back to the days of yore
Giant sores on my lion heart
Time to spark

Sores - Earl Sweatshirt

Performed live at Camp Flog Gnaw in 2019. Then again in 2021, along with multiple times in 2022. Usually called Homebound, or DEMONED UP. Produced by Ibliss, whom he shouts out before performing the song.



Lyrics:

[Verse]
Hard times when I needed touch
Need a crutch, need a hug, harsh lines on the easel, blood
Even keeled, but with death, the infrequent brush test me
Don't speak em' up, speakers hum
Free the thugs, we don' weeped enough
Recently released a steam, when I pieced him up
Mischievous as my uncle, mischievous as Juanita was
Peace to Juanita son for checking in
Must have felt the deviance I'm delving in, I'm demon'd up
Forehead creases, dimpled cheeks betray the feeling
Play the shield til' I play the villain
In the field, the killing joke whispering in a ear
Sentimental, a voice quivering with despair
Up there where the air thinner
The mountaineer keep a sharper pair of shears with him
Clip a clear path to the endless
Stack up meal ticket, hands sticky
The tar shiny black, time - you can't buy it back
Please don't throw me to the briar-patch, got his ass!

[Chorus]
I'm back home and I gotta laugh
I'm back home and I gotta laugh
The siren song got me out a jam
And in a, and in a flash, climbing in a bath, damn

Tar Baby - Earl Sweatshirt

Snippet from an Instagram live on October 14, 2019 of MAVI previewing an unreleased song he's on as a feature by Earl Sweatshirt called Soiree. He confirmed the name in the comment section to an Instagram post from a fan after a concert in Charleston, South Carolina from the Shadowbox tour on November 10, 2024. Sometimes, this song is called Sun & The Moon, Off The Earth, or On The Earth by fans. Full footage is unknown, along with a full CDQ. 



Lyrics:

[Intro]
I’m the sun so I’m-

[Verse: Earl Sweatshirt]
Pain
Nigga hurts parade
How would it hurt for 6 days straight?
Grateful on the turn
When they say “it’s probably he never learn”
Swervin' into your honor cuz you on the earth

[Verse: Mavi]
He’s slipping in and out of Ben-Obalobi’s shoes
Ankles peddles skinned up Lil' niggas follow no rules
Except the tenches, lesson blessin’ like the sub plus the mud to take the garden of fruit
And I’m the sun so I’m guarding my moon
And I’m a real nigga so I build with my hands
Not never with my fingers, teachable-

Soiree [2019 Snippet] - Earl Sweatshirt (ft. MAVI)

Performed repeatedly throughout 2015, 2016, and occasionally in past years. Also called I Be Outside by fans.



Lyrics:
[Intro]
Everyone mind stuck on druggin' now

[Verse]

I figured I just switch on all of my other styles
Stopped smokin blunts, I can run a mile
I can't go out cause they gun me down
I'm coming up from the under
Know you'll hear that thumping sound
No peace in your stomping ground
Booming like a thunder cloud
Chicken with no head, how you run it now
Shit can get ugly
If I'm takin' shots then I'mma get the bucket
Don't you run up on me while I'm out in public
I got two hands and I trust 'em
One fits perfect in a running mouth
Be a slow learner when it's turning down time
I went cold turkey, now it's back to
Slow burning herbo when I get some down time
Only difference is, from the last time, bitch I'm outside

[Hook]
It's toasty again
'nother homi, another soul in the wind
'nother body gettin' poked with a stick
I be outside, aye
It's toasty again
'nother body rotten', poked with sticks
'nother homi, another soul in the wind
I be outside, I be outside
It's toasty again
'nother homI, another soul in the wind
'nother body gettin' poked with a stick
I be outside, aye
I be outside, aye

Marching In (Live Version) - Earl Sweatshirt

Spill Blood by Earl Sweatshirt live at Carnation, Washington on August 11, 2024. Earl may have repeated the lyrics accidentally on this performance, but this version of the song still sounds amazing regardless.



Lyrics:
Bells rung
Send a mail up high to the sky home that I fell from
Bail us out the vine, mask over my eyes just like a welder
Tailspun out of binds baptized in the fires applaud failure
I tried to tell you
You never gon' get a rise out of a real one
Tough like Ryan spelt Orion size heavyweight titles on a belt tucked
Flying in on a wine i hit a maelstrom wild side that I am bro
I see you ain’t moved in a while
Ain’t gonna lie, you probably should getcha sails up
I tried to tell you
You never gon' get a rise out of a real one
Tough like Ryan spelt Orion size heavyweight titles on a belt tucked
Flying in on a wine i hit a maelstrom wild side that I am bro
See you ain’t moved in a while
Ain’t gon' lie, you probably should getcha sails up
Provided shelter
Dug well enough to finding some kind of wealth
Minding to myself, gumboots the bottom started to melt some
I felt stuck, steel cut not showing the shield, love
Spill blood
