V1
I was an outsider kid
Picked on in school for the things that I did
Momma she was crazy, Daddy was gone
Same ol' story, same ol' song

My whole life's been a shame
It's been tough, being this way
Can't make others happy and keep yourself sad
That ain't what to do, that ain't where it's at

C1
Oh, I, I've been searching and I can't get it right
Tell me what I've gotta pay to get into this fight
Oh, I, I've been lonely and my mind's not exactly right
I just need somebody to make me believe, I keep it so tight

V2
Dropped outta school, I was high
Landed in Georgia, I tell ya why
Met a girl in Moscow, God she was fine
She loved me right, she worked as a mime

But then this guy came through my door
Crumbled my walls and I fell to floor
Sent me back to Alabama, home in a shack
But I got up and now I'm back

C2
Oh, I, I've been searching and I can't get it right
Tell me what I've gotta pay to get into this fight
Oh, I, I've been lonely and my mind's not exactly right
I just need somebody to make me believe, I keep it so tight

Oh, I, I've been lonely and my mind's not exactly right
I just need somebody to make me believe, I keep it so tight
I keep it tight

suzanne makes acoustic and electric music spanning different genres including indie folk, rock, americana and electronic.

On season one of NBC's “The Voice,” Nakia quickly became a fan favorite, using his big grizzly voice to transform pop songs into his own unique style. While producers focused on his relationship with his husband and his struggle to make ends meet as a blues singer, what they didn't show you on TV was just how much Nakia accomplished on his own prior to the show. Long before Nakia was a semifinalist on CeeLo Green's team, he was a beloved member of the Austin music community, fronting bands, performing solo, and working with some music's biggest names. 

After the whirlwind of reality television died down, Nakia placed his focus on writing songs for his six-song EP, "Drown In The Crimson Tide," and the tour that followed. Four years later he recorded and released his acclaimed album, “Blues Grifter.” Nakia has recently been composing for film (Wasted On The Young) and TV (Skeleton Crew, Demon Doctor). Prior to the pandemic, Nakia had just begun writing new original songs and performing solo shows, and putting together a new band. When live events were canceled due to COVID-19, Nakia put more of his efforts into artist advocacy and led his nonprofit, Austin Texas Musicians, to advocate for the creation of emergency relief funding to musicians and music venues in Austin. Matthew McConaughey recently surprised Nakia with a private Zoom call where McConaughey named Nakia one of four, “Local Legends” as recognition of his volunteer work for the Austin music community during the pandemic. 

Nakia has been an active member of the Austin music community for over 17 years, and is an outspoken advocate for organizations such as HAAM and The SIMS Foundation. He has also served as the Chair of the Austin Music Commission and as a Board Governor for the Texas Chapter of the Recording Academy. Nakia is a two-time Black Fret artist grant recipient and currently lives in Austin, Texas with his husband Robert and their Bouvier des Flandres, Baker.
