Doechii - SUNDAY'S BEST

Elmiene: Tiny Desk Concert

Leon Thomas: Tiny Desk Concert

Text:
Intro (spoken, Jim-like male voice):
L.A. sun burns through my bones,
streets look the same, but I’m alone.
Walked into a bank, said: “I’m Jim Morrison.”
They laughed.
Guess credit’s not eternal, huh?

Verse 1 (Jim, half sung male voice):
No money, no fame, no flame in my hand,
just ghosts of songs and desert sand.
They threw me out, said I’m a fraud,
but I’m still the lizard, I’m still god.

Bridge (spoken, walking on Skid Row, male voice):
The city hums like a broken prayer,
neon saints and lost souls everywhere.
I hear a beat, I hear a choir —
they’re burning sound, they’re lighting fire.

Chorus (Gospel choir + rap beat):
🔥 Come on baby, light that fire again,
we turn your pain into gold, my friend.
From Skid Row streets to heaven’s choir,
we keep that soul alive, higher and higher.

Verse 2 (rap, male voice):
Yo, old man say he’s Morrison,
from the doors, before the wars begun,
told him — this 2025,
no one survives unless they vibe.

You had the fire, we got the flame,
now we remix your holy name.
From blues to trap, from church to street,
we make the dead get on their feet.

Chorus (big, gospel-funk energy):
Light my fire, oh set me free,
the past and present in harmony.
No stars, no fame, no wired desire,
just a soul reborn — in the choir of fire.

Bridge (spoken by Jim, emotional):
I thought I’d be a legend forever,
but forever’s just another word for gone.

Then I heard the street sing back to me —
“Man, your song still lives on.”

Breakdown (DJ scratch + choir riffing):
Fire, fire, light that fire!
Old souls, new blood, lift it higher!
(repeated with beats, bass, brass stabs)

Final Chorus (all voices, massive energy):
Come on baby, light my fire,
the world still needs that burning choir.
From Skid Row to the sky above,
we light the dark with human love.

Outro (Jim whispering):
I guess…
the fire never died.
It just… changed hands.

(crowd cheering, gospel outro, brass fade out)

-----------------------------------------------------
Tyler, The Creator's Tiny Desk performance was a first for many reasons. It was the Los Angeles rapper's first time performing at our offices, but moreover, it was the Tiny Desk's first nighttime performance, a special request from Tyler and his team in order to professionally light the "stage" themselves. Members of Tyler's lighting crew came to the office a day before to set it up, eventually bathing him and his band in shades of fuchsia, orange and blue — one for each song — during the early evening show.

Flower Boy, Tyler's latest album, is much like this Tiny Desk performance; a surprising departure from the expected. Four albums in, he has matured as a producer, rapper and human being. Often equated to hip-hop's class clown, the 26-year-old peels back his own mask of immaturity to reveal a young adult grappling with anxiety, fear and uncertainty of self.

After he was done, Tyler did something of a modified mic-drop, throwing his tambourine in celebration of what he and his band had accomplished. Always one to stay casually connected with his fans, Tyler made time — nearly an hour after the performance was done —- to pose for photos, sign merch and crack jokes with (and on) everyone around him.
