PICK ME

[verse1] 
I cried in my bed for a couple days 
and now I feel like I can’t anymore 
I try to erase all the pain from my face 
but I know that it is still there 
I‘d like this to change but I know that it won’t 
I know this is how it’s gonna be 
it’s me in my bed being sad in my head 
but no one will ever see 

[pre chorus]
do you really believe it when I say 
that I’m good couple times a day 
I say it over and over again 
lie to myself and to them 

[verse2] 
I feel like it’s time 
to die and leave behind my life 
though I don’t wanna die 
I feel like I just might die 
is there another way 
for me to pass a day 
without a tear down my cheek
what would even change 
I’d be gone 

[pre chorus]
do you really believe it when I say 
that I’m good couple times a day 
I say it over and over again 
lie to myself and to them

the songs about not knowing how to function in a romantic relationship cuz I've never been in one but it could also just be about dancing if you like

also my moms in the song!!!

Lyrics:

The way you look
The way you laugh
And the way you dance
Oh it’s all I had to go by
You grab my hand
We go outside
But I can’t dance and that’s all that I’m thinking bout’
But you were just tryna get to know me

I can’t dance (huh?)
I said I can’t dance (what?)
I said I can’t dance (when?)
I said I can’t dance

I wasn’t trained for this
I can love a friend but I don’t know much about a love like this
I can’t dance
No I can’t

It’s all
Moving too quickly
I’ll move on
But I won’t move too quickly
Get your groove on
But you don’t groove with me
I’ll tap my feet
But I’m not moving

I can’t dance (huh?)
I said I can’t dance (what?)
I said I can’t dance (when?)
I said I can’t dance
(Can you dance? - said by my mom)
NO!!!

I CAN’T DANCE!

thoughts on the new Dominic Fike album?

Lyrics:

You keep a knife in your pants at the dance so you can fight it
Cuz the groove doesn’t bruise you’ll try to slice it and dice it 
Your tryna choose between running or dancing
Then the music comes to a stop

Who killed the DJ? 

And now the DJ’s on the floor
He can’t take anymore 
But the body’s smelling funky
Did someone say funky?

Turn on the cruise control
You gotta rock n roll
You gonna twist it and turn it if you gonna make it out

The groove is coming
Start on running
The parties dying but we can try to CPR it

It was party in space
Now go and moon walk away
You gotta moon walk away

The DJs shot 
In the head
What the heck
Who killed the DJ

who killed the dj? [demo]

"wow are parts of this song in 7/4? You must be a great musician" - you after listening to this song

also shoutout to the major pentatonic scale

Lyrics:
I am not who you say I am
You will never know who I really am

You don’t know the things that I’ve done
You don’t know the man I’ve become
You can never know who I am
You say you wanna know but

You don’t understand 
You don’t understand
You don’t know this man
You don’t know this man
like I do

I’m just a sinner at church
Except it’s where I work
I’d die
To know more then just words
Lord I need to feel forgiveness now
I lay it all down
Lord you know who I am
I lay it all down
Lord you know who I am

i am not who you say i am [demo]

backseat

van gogh’s mug

i guess sinner and saint aren't mutually inclusive
and I exist in the space
between
a sinner
chosen to be a saint
by a God who cares more
than I could possibly imagine

dancing with divinity; playing in the dirt

God is love; love isn't God

711 song

i'm still a child (winter 2022)

low key the most crazy experimental song I've ever made

GET UP!

perfect love casts out fear?

writing music, following Jesus, and running ultramarathons when I have some spare time

i'm still a child (winter 2022)

hi it's michael
