LYRICS

Sometimes, I just feel like crying
No reason just wanna try it
My body is gettin tired
Maybe we should call and fight it

Sometimes, I feel fully naked
Exposed and my mind aching
They say “this shit overrated”
Rely on me to jus keep waitin

I stay

I stay

I got my bag
And I finally got the check in
Get that new pack 
Man that shit is soul possessin
Im not possessive 
Just know that im a mess but

I’m rollin wit my best but
Know that im not messin up
Test enough
Where’d you go
I learnt my lesson, uh
Its yo phone im requestin 
Oh my god jus Confess it uh


(Oh my God) Sometimes I just feel like crying
(Sometimes)
No reason just wanna try it
(Sometimes)
My body is gettin tired
Maybe we should call and fight it

Sometimes I feel fully naked
Exposed and my mind aching
They say this shit overrated
Rely on me to jus keep waitin

I stay

I stay

Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes

Just keep waiting
Just keep waiting
Just keep waiting

Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes

Just keep waiting
Just keep waiting
Just keep waiting

Ooh

Sometimes, I

Sometimes, I

Sometimes, I

SOMETIMES, I

"Adjustments" is releasing at a very crucial time in my career where I'm evaluating every area of my life and making shifts - from the way I view myself and my journey, to being more present and mentally available in the life around me. It's healing work at its essence. Before these moments, I was doubtful, lacked confidence, and even insecure about my music. Now, I'm affirmed - daily - that this is where I'm supposed to be and the doubt has turned into patience. This song is liberation.

Adjustments - Mad Keys

A Faithful Spirit contains 10 Original Gospel samples highlighting gospel vocalist Nichol Eskridge. Every purchase comes with an INSTANT DIGITAL DOWNLOAD that includes the compositions, STEMS and a physical VINYL copy that will be shipped immediately upon purchase. Each sample has multiple parts, sections, background and lead vocal phrases, arranged in a way that makes it easy for any producer to pick and choose parts that grab their attention. Every sample was recorded and processed 100% analog and mixed on a vintage Electrodyne 1608 console and sent out to a Revox tape machine giving it the tone, texture and saturation of what you might find on a rare 70s & 80s gospel record. All Demos on this playlist are included and available exclusively at Polyphonicmusiclibrary.com

You're Right Where You're Supposed to Be

Carousel by M.Kel is a raw and immersive journey through the relentless cycles of chasing a dream. From moments of triumph to crushing setbacks, the album captures the highs and lows that shape an artist’s path. Set against the backdrop of the Carolinas, where the weight of crab-bucket mentality threatens to pull dreamers down, M.Kel weaves stories of resilience, doubt, and perseverance. With hypnotic melodies, sharp lyricism, and unfiltered emotion, Carousel spins through the realities of ambition—where every rise feels fleeting, and every fall is a lesson in persistence.

We're all seeking it. In all of our lives. Obtaining it can seem impossible, but when you put first things first, everything will fall into place. We get better along the way.
