LYRICS
I got my wings clipped 
I got my Trump check 
supposed to last me through the apocalypse
I spent it all on some leftist shit 
as a fuck you to him and Mike Pence
 
I don’t give a shit about the burning bush 
Noah’s Ark or two of every animal 
is this the new flood is this new the new plague 
is this the rapture or just the first wave 
my lungs are clean at least today 
I fill 'em up Laurie rolled me a J
 
I can’t sleep with Emma anymore 
she got too many chickens in her backyard
took the urban farming thing a little too far 
they wake me up each and every hour 
she’ll kiss her housemate it’s more convenient
what with the lock down what with the Covid
it’s too much drama for me to play
I stay at home Laurie rolled me a J
 
Went to the protest shit got crazy 
you lost your mask running away 
your friends got paranoid come join my scene
make love for two weeks we’ll say it’s quarantine 
don’t call me sugar if you want to taste it 
this summer heat has got us sweating opiates 
we watch the sunset from our cage
front row seats Laurie rolled us a J
 
This girl name Cedar I had to get away 
she was fine as hell but she was too New Age 
she do that Wim Hof don’t take no hot showers 
but I’m a bad boy I need them hot showers
she got a crystal for every disease 
said "cure the Covid" she said "it’s 5G" 
won’t get the vaccine cause of the tracking chip 
hell they can track me I ain't doing shit 
track me on my couch, track me in my bed 
track me texting you, track me left on read 
track me in the yard puffing my life away 
gone like smoke Laurie rolled me a J

Laurie Rolled Me a J

Stranger
I'm traveling on and on and on and on and on and on.. 
Can you point me
To the sweet green fields and the ever blue sky
Because I woke this morning in the hurricanes eye

Young traveler
The path you seek is in the heart you deny
Go look there
You might be surprised at the treasure you find
I remember being you're age and completely blind
Your compass is broken and it points to the sky
You're always gonna wake in the hurricanes eye

Stranger
I'm traveling on and on and on and on and on on and on
Because m feet are itchy and I don't wanna die
Stranded one morning in the hurricanes eye


The Hurricanes Eye

Jesse Roper's song Cupid record at Bear Creek with Ryan Hadlock (Vance Joy, The Lumineers, G. Love, Brandi Carlile and more)

Lyrics
Cupid shot an arrow and it landed quite deep in the palm of my calloused hand
I tried to pull it out but it wouldn't seem to budge so I left it to stand
over the next few weeks a change came about me that I really didn't understand
but it doesn't take long for a feeling that strong to completely overtake a man

Oooohhh and I felt it, The feeling wouldn't go away
so I told the young cupid that she must take it back
I know its going to cause me pain
But the arrow found its way from my hand into my heart
and it buried down as deep as it could
And it determined the way that I lived each day and i do remember feeling good

Run away from your home you might make it
Run away from your heart and you will always look behind
I tried to love you but I felt like you wouldn't take it
and now the arrows gone through my heart
and I'm crying

Once upon a time there was a pearly white castle in the hills overlooking the sea
and all the people in the town and the villages around they all remarked it as the place of their dreams
Oh but what they didn't know is that once inside, the castle it was in disrepair 
the king in a rage went and flew his pearly cage and he left his lovely queen there  

Run away from your home you might make it
Run away from your heart and you will always look behind
I tried to love you but I felt like you wouldn't take it
and now the arrows gone through my heart

Run away from your home you might make it
Run away from your heart and you will always look behind
I tried to love you but I felt like you wouldn't take it
and now the arrows gone through my heart
and now the arrows gone through my poor poor heart
and now the arrows gone through my heart
and Im cryin
