this is a release that may or may not serve as my penultimate journey in releasing hip hop music. sometimes i get really discouraged from doing this. for multiple reasons. do i have a place here? why do i make these songs? am i fully healed? have i done right by the people that matter the most to me?

this is a collection of songs that have been written and recorded over the past year from 2022-2023. this mixtape deals with themes of depression, loss, love, triumph, tragedy, drug abuse, mental illness, political and social unrest, and the overarching theme that things might not be as well off as they seem. this is intended to be a big coming out part but also more than likely my final stop in the world or hip-hop due to squandered potential, lack of engagement with other people, and feeling like a general annoyance to the world.

i appreciate anyone and everyone who listens to this. this release is my heart and soul for now, and i hope whatever i do next is worth all the time.

USMF


When the KKK and the Kremlin
Are sharing their vodka and rye
When redneck white supremecists
are making Lady Liberty cry
When The land of the free is walled in
So pesky Mexicans can’t get by
That’s the day the rest of us
Watches America die.

When the Whitehouse houses a bigot
A misogynist ‘locker room’ fly
When a multi-billionaire
Stands for momma’s apple pie
When a name shines on a tower
That reaches up to the sky
That’s the day the rest of us
Watches America die.

When a straw thatched Umpa-Lumpa
Pedals the conspiracy lie
When a tax dodging privileged hypocrite
Tells workers he’s their kinda guy
When a bully is sitting as president
And parents tell their children why
That’s the day the rest of us
Watches America die



Lady Liberty Weeps

In a Minnesota precinct
On a Minnesota street
The day starts like any other
For the Baton Rouge elite
In the land of the brave
In the land of the free
A cop with a pistol
Shoots liberty
A man reaches for a wallet
With a target on his back
Red white and blue
All the patrolman sees is black
Where the gun is law
The sheriff of the west
Has immunity to kill
Wearing a star on his chest
And this is the country
Who sets itself above
The rest of the world
And preaches peace and love
But it can’t control the forces
It creates to protect
And it can’t control the hatred
It chooses to elect
Where every stand off
Is resolved by the gun
And red neck lobbyists
Believe the lies they have spun
Now in Dallas Texas
There are cop killers on the street
The day ends like any other
The cycle is complete



Safety Off

The FBI and the CIA got ‘em
Good ‘ol boys in the KKK got ‘em
Even Doris Day got ‘em
But it don’t make ‘em safe

Kids in their daddies cars got ‘em
Rednecks in Dallas bars got ‘em
Sheriffs with tin stars got ‘em
But it don’t make ‘em safe

The white and black and brown got’ em
Old folks in mid-west town’s got ‘em
Even the Whitehouse clown got ‘em
But it don’t  make ‘em safe

Clint Eastwood and John Wayne got ‘em
The holy and insane got ‘em
I’ve heard that Citizen Kane got ‘em
But it don’t make ‘em safe


Shopkeepers in their stores got ‘em
Vets returning from their wars got ‘em
Pimps and two bit whores got ‘em
But it don’t make ‘em safe

The Washington Post and Fox got ‘em
Randy high school jocks got ‘em
Snipers in tower blocks got ‘em
But it don’t make ‘em safe

Heroes on TV got ‘em
The brave and the free got ‘em
Babies on their mamas knees got ‘em
But it don’t make ‘em safe

The Waltons and the Brady’s got ‘em
The good guys and their ladies got ‘em
Tupac and Slim Shady’s got ‘em
But it don’t make ‘em safe

Every Independence day got ‘em
Every bullet that goes astray got ‘em
The whole of the USA got ‘em
And they’re never gonna be safe

Punch A Nazi

when you live through a genocide 
do you wonder when they're coming for you
you know you're not immune 
first they came for you know who
maybe you're part of a select few

when i live through a genocide
do i wonder if they're coming for me
do i scroll just to pass the time
or do i argue with a stranger online ha

things dont affect me 
until they do
i wake up one morning 
and my existence is through

what do you use to soothe?
i dont blame you
but dont destroy yourself before they do you 
resist prevail pursue what you love

persona non grata
not wanted not seen not heard
maybe youre used to it  
and think ha you deserve it
schadenfreude 
destroyed in it
my pain is content
my death is too
make a spectacle teens shooting up schools
the American way

i say i live for today
called this beat "death" 
but im ready to fight
no matter what it means 

like a tweet make your views known nevermind
hidden for a reason 
musk knows the fascism inside

exorcise
exorcise

ERASURE

GENOCIDE
