Here's a #TBT for your Tuesday. Not normal, yet nor am I.

Here's a downloadable version of my old band, circa 2005-2007. I was on vocals alongside Julian Witt, who also played guitar. Jesse Dresden was on bass and Steven Pressley was on drums. I'm a sucker for old school screamo, so it's cool to stumble upon this online occasionally. I finally got a download, so I figured I'd up it up here for everyone to enjoy. :D

All songs are copy-written to Her Silhouette.
Thanks for the support and love, and if you remember this shit... Thanks for the memories :)

A short little ballad, that will be on my upcoming solo album.

Been sitting on it for a few weeks, but it's short and sweet, and I'm sick of dwelling on it.

I hope you enjoy it.

The Midas Touch

Wrote, recorded, mixed and mastered this track in a few hours. It's over a dope Dilla beat. Just free writing and spitting.

Whatever.

RIP Dilla.

Lyrics:
Pen and paper
Hit the floor
I kick in doors with the freshness
Lessons I be teaching you and yours
They fall directly from your heaven
7:47
Seven forties and a second blunt for the Sandman
Damn, man
I never knew that Keaton kid could rap, though
They say he's got the Midas touch
He touches crap, it turns gold
I be writing rhymes in my sleep that make yours look weak
Seek reckoning for every failed attempt at besting me
I'm festering with rhetoric, and death wishes
Evidently, you didn't get the message
I'm the best there ever was, and likely ever will be

And they didn't see it coming, cause they've been asleep
But who can really blame them in the land of deceit?
I've been shaking, screaming, slapping
Begging them to see
But they don't want to see what they don't want to see

If I ain't nice, then you a liar
If you're a lion, I'm a liger
If you're a titan, I'm a sniper
Remember what David did to Goliath with a pebble and a sling?
I got a keyboard and a mic, though
I decided not to try too hard, lest I lose my tight hold
Taking Melatonin and Magnesium supplements
Such erratic behavior tends to lead to starting trends
But ain't a single thing upon these brittle bones, these people want
On the rare occasion I do succeed, it's taken before I can flaunt it
So fuck a sonnet
I'm just trying to write a rent check
The best friends you ever have will never be your best bet

Got a beat you'd like to hear me rap on, this month? Leave it in a comment! <3

NKNGS:J Dilla - (Scream Till You're) Purple *24HourProduction*

Another one I wrote, recorded and put out in a few hours. I decided on putting together a free mixtape over the next month or so...

Keep a look out.

Lyrics:
Put a mirror in the toilet
Show the world what it's like to get shitted on
Fillings made of concrete and razor blades destroy your armor
Y'all ain't really ready
Put your mother fucking hands down
I'm asking the questions now
Do you get it, Kyle?
Respect my authority
Majority of times, I don't know what the word 'respect' means
Test me?
Fuck you
I dropped out in high school
No GED or diploma, but I'm still smarter than you
Boo hoo, you gonna cry about it baby?
They say my generation's lazy
I just think we're sick of playing games...
Or, at least, playing the same ones
Save us the same shveil of fame on the slave bus
Cave men and cave ins all came from the same wonder
I used to be Turok, Dinosaur Hunter
Now, I hunt for dinosaurs and crush them & their industry (Prehistoric)
You can change your name, but you can't hide your true identity

SentiMental letters from the underground
Do you hear that sound?
Tell me, do you hear me now?

Day 3. 

Respect to Black Star!

Lyrics:
Can I be honest?
Hip Hop isn't real life
People need to realize that what I live and what I write are different points of view
Dots become lines
How childish of you, to judge me at first sight
They talk a lot about the Gods that they have become, now
I get called a narcissist by them, I'm like 'What?! HOW?!"
Sundown to sunrise, I question every action
I question every question
Was that even worth asking?
Until I'm in a casket, no two eggs in one basket
I know what I can be, and I've only begun hatching
Why is it that when I vocalize my knowledge of potential, they act like I'm mental, or I think that I am above them?
Why does my success require you to disrespect, or mean that just because I found me, that you are forced to submit?
I think everyone's a king.
It yields the title useless.
The truth is, if my words offend, you probably could use it
And too many people are too scared to stand alone
Fantasize about the road, but never leave their home town.
The only thing I know is that is never going to be me
I've seen seas, and burned trees down to the black ground
I'm tired of playing the background
I fired myself, but I'm back now
I'm sorry that it had to end like this, but it did
So, I ain't gonna back down
Failure has always been a fuel to add to my flame, and I ain't trying to change a game that I didn't agree to play.
I'd just like to see my name attached to the paintings I create...
Can you blame me?

#BLACKBALLOONSCHALLENGE

NKNGS - Black Balloons Remix

Produced by: Early Adopted
Mixed & Mastered by: Freddie Bunz

Lyrics:

Early Adopted:

Tears for fears
Apparently all my peers and I
Everybody wants to rule the world but can't decide if the trade off is worth it
Ear to ear I smiled
Past tense
Back then I was a cheerful guy
Fulfillment in the form of party afternoons
Had ice cream cake
Assortment of balloons
Mother sent .JPEG's worn from the disposable she would shoot
Photo with her phone
Look at you
So cute, so happy back when
Used to wake up laughing, till you went back to bed
Then she said, "Well, when came all the gloom?"
Told her that life hadn't beaten me down, yet
Stuck the tool in my mouth
Knocked my tooth out
Oof, ouch
'Fore I was a booze hound
Every six months, used to move round
Who's house?
No clue now
Mind blown like a nuke, now
When did life become so futile?

(Chorus):
All my memories are photographs of better days
I tried to push you away, but you still love me anyway

NKNGS:

Forgive and forget
Art born from death
I swore that I would never step foot in these parts again
Can't sleep, head is full of regrets
Can't speak unless I scream from my chest
Cast me into the sea like a net
I got a lot of bad habits that I need to address and accept
Except I wasn't always like this
But time spent thinking is time spent lifeless and I've spent years in my head
Fought tears back instead of the fear that I felt being used to progress
If it seems like I'm distant, it's because I am
If I hold my breath long enough, there won't be none left
Obsessed with the upset
Watch as the sky burns red from the sunset
Unsteady chemistry
Words turn to weaponry
Leave them in memory of everything that ever meant anything to me
Peace to the sky
Take my last breath and then I dive
Leave no reason why...

(Chorus)

Homesick ft. Early Adopted

Produced by: NKNGS
Mixed & Mastered by: Freddie Bunz

Lyrics:

(Chorus):
I don't want to feel anything, anymore
Laying on my back, bleeding out on the bathroom floor
I don't want to feel anything, anymore

No flora, no Fawnna
No fading this song out
No favor to a god could bring your presence back upon us
If nirvana exists, then I hope that you have found it
If not, I hope that nothingness is better than your life was
Hung up on the typos
Hanging like some type of tapestry of life goals
One eye like a cyclops
Empty words when I talk
Emotions in I sulk
Never watch where I walk
Darkess to which I flock
Stuck on the expression, not intent
If life's a lesson, I can see the reason you abandoned shipwreck
Trust me when I lessen life to nothing but a question with no answer
I could give a shit less...

(Chorus)

And never mind the distance
If you would have called, I would have been there in an instant
If you needed anything, you know I would have gifted
But nothing that I could have done would change your ill persistence and
You had a goal and you pursued it
The truth is, I envy your courage to follow through
If you didn't have a child, your choices would be for you, but you abandoned hope
So what do you expect them to do?
Nothing's been the same since
Aimless, I wander through these days graceless
Made to face this
No basis
I'm wasting away
I hate to say I think about you every single day, but...

(Chorus)

No Flora ft. Hootie Rotten

Produced by: Fresh2Fresh
Mixed & Mastered by: Freddie Bunz

Lyrics:

(Chorus):
I've said before that I hate my life
One foot out the door
One hand on the knife
I've washed ashore like a bottle of wine that's been emptied and corked with a message inside

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray your soul my soul to keep
I keep a key around my neck
I never meant to lack respect
I seek forgiveness for my faults
I'm not concerned with finding peace
I take it with a grain of salt
I'm not upset, I'm just obscene

But we keep playing these same songs from when we were teens
And singing the words wrong
Back when we were free and nothing could hurt us
Now I look at my old friends and see them struggle to keep calm
We've gone from rebels to the cogs we used to laugh about
Used to party in a vacant house while Chris' mom was out of town
Laying on the driveway, tripping, looking at the stars
It almost took away from all the pain from cuts that turned to scars

(Chorus)

Message In A Bottle

Produced by: Saiyan WRLD
Mixed & Mastered by: Freddie Bunz

Lyrics:

Broken mirror
That's seven years of bad luck
I must have broke a dozen, or this punishment don't add up
Try to find a reason
Turns out I'm just a sad fuck
Try to steer clear of where my failures let the crowd judge
Now what?

Tower over everyone I've ever known
Just so I can keep my head down
I stay as still as stone
I'm not alone, but some days it might feel that way
And if I need to cope, I don't need you to tell me how to pray
Just get out of my way
Everybody's suffering
Everything it different than it was when we were 17
Douse myself in gasoline
Strike a match and cause a scene
Swallow my Fluoxetine
Chase it down with kerosene

(Chorus):
I'm evergreen
Forever blue
I'm stuck between the darkest hues...

Give me that cold blood, so I don't have to pick my battles
Give me that bold front, so I don't have to feel so rattled
Give me that old gun, and anything they send I'll handle
I zip my coat up and watch my life slowly unravel

So mirror, mirror shattered on the floor
It's such a chore just to wake up from the dream land that I live in anymore
Kick the door in
Find me hiding under bed like scared child
Forget what it is to feel happy, hopeful and beguiled
Into the wild I've wandered in a hazy state
Walk into a rose bush
Beauty is the biggest pain
I feel the ache
Nothing will ever be the same
I'm not okay, but everything is fucking great...

(Chorus)

Evergreen

Produced by: Resting Scary Face
Mixed & Mastered by: Freddie Bunz

Lyrics:

(Chorus):
Everybody loves me when I'm broken in half
I'm screaming from the agony, they all point and laugh
They all point and laugh
They all point and laugh, like...

Static on the speakers
Translation: Too much silence
I think I've hit my peak
I've grown accustomed to the violence
I always feel weak when I compare myself to tyrants, but I feel like I am eye to eye with I & I's own iris
Tired of the same old same
The games we play are prepubescent
Flirting with mortality
We're glowing iridescent
Here rests NKNGS
He did his best, but wasn't shit
He stressed himself to death, I hope he finally found bliss... (Yeah, right)

(Chorus)

Every morning, back breaks from getting out of bed
Fell into a pit of snakes, bought every word they said
Don't think I have what it takes to conquer existential dread, but even if I did, I made this bed, so I'ma lie in it
Wine and dine my demons, 'fore I take them out to pasture
Most of those who claim they're loyal, actually some actors
Many people hesitant to bite into that apple, because knowledge equals suffering
I'll lead them by example...

(Chorus)

NKNGS
