LYRICS

INTRO
(breathing)
get the fuck over here (evil laughing)

FIRST VERSE
I woke up with this feeling
these drugs still coursing through my veins (through my veins)
you beg and beg for pleasure 
but tonight im feeling pain

so come on baby lets get wasted (lets get wasted)
lets fade into the crowd (fade into the crowd)
cause tonight there are no limits (limits)
scream and moan i like it loud (louder)

CHORUS
i feel it in the air tonight (its in the air tonight)
that sweat is dripping off your skin (dripping off your skin)
take your mind and body places
that its never fucking been (never been)

so tie you up tie you up (tie you up)
you aint leavin here tonight (aint leaving here tonight)
im gonna make you fucking love me (love me)
after i fuck your body right (heavy breathing)

SECOND VERSE 
open your eyes your not dreaming
you know you feel me deep inside (you feel it deep inside)
your nails digging in my back (in my back)
hold on girl, its slip and slide (so fucking wet)

cause i can tell how bad you crave it
watch you begging on your knees 
slip the blindfold on your face
tonight you're getting what you need (what i need)

THIRD VERSE
slow down baby, just keep breathing
as I kiss between your thighs (as I kiss between your thighs)
aint no one, no word to save you (no)
im gonna soak in all your cries (louder)

i smell you in the air tonight (inhale/exhale)
a scent so good that i can taste (i fucking taste you)
you know you can shoot me up (shoot me up, baby)
any where, and any place

THE LAB SESSIONS EP

TIE YOU UP

I wrote TEARS as a way to let people know that it's okay to cry, and it's okay that you even want or need to cry. It doesn't make you weak, it just means you can feel. Especially as a man, many of us were taught to not show emotion, to not cry. But life will always hit us when we least expect it - we lose someone we love, or we stress over fears. One thing is for sure - happiness comes and happiness goes. Let the tears flow. 


LYRICS

(spoken)
I've just been...trying to hold this back for so long. It's just killing me inside and I need other people...  I need other people to know that you don't gotta hold it in, and you aren't even alone. Let it flow.

Yo

VERSE 1
🎵 Ain't nothing wrong with crying, 
we all shed tears. 
We cry for people that we lost, 
and we cry of our fears. 

Try to hold back the emotion 
but damn, it's making me ill. 
Those tears don't make you weak, 
they just means you can feel. 

CHORUS
I'll see you later, happiness. 
It's my turn for some pain. 
You Can't appreciate the sun
until you're standing in the rain 

happiness comes. 
and happines goes
but the only thing i know
Is Imma let these tears flow 

VERSE 2
hold your chin up
yeah, look them in the eye
show 'em how strong you are
never let em see you cry 

I just say nah fam, I'm good 
knowing deep down im lying
but i cant hold back the tears
they coming like a flood cause they've been held back for years 

we always puttin on a front
try to wear a happy face
when we knowin that deep down
we've grown tired of this place 

our bodies are beaten 
our souls' feeling weak 
the world just keeps taking shots at us
and we just turn the other cheek 

VERSE 3
we gonna lose some day ones 
we gonna take some Ls
but when we live in the past 
we create our own hell 

we stay in it, dwell in it
night and day, we can't sleep 
they say no rest for the wicked 
I lie my head down and weep

thought I had it all figured out
started making those plans
but life changed up quick 
now my hearts in my hands 

guess i couldn't predict it
yeah, had it mapped out for years
guess im stuck with these fears
guess im crying these tears

BRIDGE
yeah, I keep pushing it down 
try to pretend it aint there
but if i ever need to see the pain
i'll go look in the mirror 


CHORUS
yeah so, I'll see you later, happiness. 
It's my turn for some pain. 
You Can't appreciate the sun
until you're standing in the rain 

happiness comes. 
and happines goes
but the only thing that i know
I'm gonna let these tears flow 

Imma let these tears flow

TEARS (Album Version)

LOVE was written during the initial time of the Israel/Palestinian conflict that continues to result in the senseless death of so many, especially innocent child victims of war. It is a social period piece focused on how divisive our current time of life is, where judgment and prejudice run rampant, and grace and forgiveness seem to be at an all-time low.

The song’s uplifting instrumental and bellowing Gospel choir help to bring levity and power to an already powerful message. NASHDADDY’s prayer to the Universe, Creator, God is a call to awareness and a call of forgiveness. The song has been compared by others stylistically to that of PRINCE. NASHDADDY’s vulnerability in sharing of his own story of pain in his relationship with his father while now also learning how to be a father while growing up without one.

The past pain is foreshadowed with lyrics surrounding the yelling, screaming, and anger in his childhood home. It speaks of his own determination to become a better man while struggling with many of the same personal demons, and a message of forgiveness, love, and hope as he leaves the listeners with the one word the defines how we can truly move forward as a human race – LOVE.

NashDaddy, also known as Michael Chapel, is a Nashville-native with a rich family history in the music industry. Michael's grandfather was Don Chapel, famed country music song-writer and once-husband of country music legend Tammy Wynette. Michael didn't fall far from the musical roots of his family tree but his music has taken a decidedly authentic path for himself veering from what his family was known for - bluegrass, gospel, and country, and decidedly chose a different path in life and to his music - gritty, conscious hip-hop and rap, melodical spoken-word, and raw, industrial, indie alt-rock, with his lyrics and message to the world taking center stage. 

Michael's proudest accomplishment in life is easily found in him raising his children. As a single father of four children, he has found passion and purpose in his lyrical song writing and his music, and through that very music and message, is healing his own wounds while telling a story that makes an impact on others around the world. 

Michael typically writes, producers/co-producers, records, and mixes most of his own music but is currently working with such notable producers and mix-master engineers such as  Multi-Platinum Producer & Recording/Mix Engineer Dakari (J. Cole, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, A$AP Rocky, G-Eazy,  Halsey, Demi Lovato, Charlie Puth, YG) and GRAMMY Winning Platinum Mixer Jeff Sojka (NF, For King and Country, Colbie Caillat) to craft a unique, lyrically-driven sound that the world must hear.
