From the depths of addiction to newfound clarity, American rapper Tommy G.'s 6 track EP, 'Blue World', is the embodiment of his recent transformation as a man and musician. After struggling with mental health & substance abuse for the majority of his teens & twenties, Tommy turned over a new leaf and found solace in sobriety. Spending the last 2 years rebuilding his life in Marin County, CA, this time of self-discovery & metamorphosis was the catalyst for his new project, where he dives into topics such as depression, mental health, addiction, his journey into recovery, redemption, shifting perspectives, perfectionism, love & self-care. Produced exclusively by Chxse Bank, 'Blue World' was released as a series of singles throughout fall and winter of 2022, while the full length EP released on January 13th, 2023 via Wavy Bird Music.

Lyrics:

Blue
How could it be so blue?
Everything is blue
How, how could it be so blue?

Jokes on me, I’m constantly laughing
Here we go better make sure your seat belts fastened 
I’m a team player so life tests I’m always passing
Got a passion for rapping but my rations are lacking
They say its a blue world, well that’s my favorite color
Vulnerability is being brave, that’s what I say to my latest lover (ugh)
I’m training to be the greatest of all time
They ask me how I’m doing, I say its all fine

All the little hoop kids ballin’ with serenity
Baby it was meant to be, blue is how I tend to be
Riding in a beamer ‘till I crashed that bitch
Now I’m dropping all these lines trying to catch that fish
In a reel good headspace, feel like I could levitate
Resonate to heaven’s gates, I’ve been trying to bend my fate
Woo! Ugh, Running low on epinephrine
But better than I ever been, better than I ever been

Go paint it all blue
Its a blue world, go and paint it all blue, yeah
(We going to paint it all blue)
And I always been a sad boy, wishing that I had joy
What ya going to do now?
I’m going to paint it all blue
Its a blue world baby, paint it all blue, ugh
(We going to paint it all blue)
Go assimilate the color, love the hue
I wouldn’t have it any other way now

Wiki, wiki hold me down
Looking for my golden crown, blue like I am Otis now
Lately need space so I think I’ll find the Tesseract
I think I’m going to test the facts and prove that I’m the best at rap
My brother died at zero, I’m just trying to die a hero (ugh)
Trying to be a legend, should have died at 27, God! 
And they don’t know me
Man, depression got me good but I’m finally feeling free (Ahh)

Real blue world
Real blue world

Tell me what you going to do now?
I’m just trying to stay sober
I be tipping on the boarder when my mind is out of order (ugh)
I don’t wanna overdose, baby can you hold me close
Lighting up my path like I think you are my flashlight
Just doing what I can do, I be feeling brand new
Tune into my higher-self, do not fight the fire sale, whoa!
Get the sadness for a discount
Feel new emotion, real blue like the ocean yeah

Go paint it all blue
Its a blue world, go and paint it all blue, yeah
(We going to paint it all blue)
And I always been a sad boy, wishing that I had joy
What ya going to do now?
I’m going to paint it all blue
Its a blue world baby, paint it all blue, ugh
(We going to paint it all blue)
Go assimilate the color, love the hue
I wouldn’t have it any other way

Lyrics:

Sunrise, paradise sun
Sunrise, paradise 

Sunrise center me before the crazy wakes
Amen to my manic mind 
Sunset to the break of day, I’m asking can I fly?
You could call me Icarus, I’m getting close to burning up
A phoenix in the ashes, a dreamer and his passion
The laughings everlasting, now my serotonins crashing
Serenade with lullabies and circulate the lovely times
Me, I need a wake up call, melatonin melodies
I think I’m out of area, I’m elbow deep in elegies 
My soul is so gone, I’m hoping I’m wrong
These moments ‘till dawn are seeming like eternity
But my grip is slipping on the handle 
Psyche splitting like a sandal
It just hit me like an anvil that I’m static on one channel
Financial life is beautiful, I’m stranded in a new hotel
It is irrefutable these lines are longitudinal 
I’m likely linked to Lazarus 
Describe me with no adjective
Then love me where my mattress is
By morning I’ll be gone

Sunrise, paradise sun
Sunrise, paradise
Sunset, help me feel something I can’t understand
Sunset, come get your rest

I’m basically a sucker for your pheromones 
Prepare the throne the heir is home
Sing it like a baritone 
But I could barely breath, learn to meditate with ease
Come animate my dreams then go dub the Japanese
Accentuate the highs but appreciate the lows
Attenuate your cries, do not deviate the flow
Calculate by pi then go multiply by I
Running circles in the sky, I am certain its goodbye
I was mortified I was born to die
But there’s more to find in this mortal life
Moving towards divine each blue night
Before July I’ma reach new heights
Borderline disorder but I fortified my aorta  
I got a sword on my side, heart on my sleeve
I’m back on my vibe, pardon my leave
Perceptions just a part of how we weave it all together
Percolate the pain now the outcomes even better
There are X’s on my eyes, come and find the treasure
Super Saiyan flow, I got Goku on my sweater

Sunrise, paradise sun
Sunrise, paradise
Sunset, help me feel something I can’t understand
Sunset, come get your rest

This hunk of junk will make it there
The Art of Zen and Motorcycle Maintenance is finally making sense
Been balling like a baby in his cradle since
1990, find me penning licks like a Doberman
This sober man is doper than an overdose
I’m almost close to paradise
Easy does it, reach the summit
Comatosed and paralyzed, now every flow is maritime 
I rose above my fear
I am finally here
Look me in the mirror
And my reflections…clear

Lyrics:

Endless hours, scentless flowers
Sentence flow, end his woes
Hopeless journey, love gets dirty
Bye, bye, bye little birdie

My brains on fire with the same quagmire 
We sat by the fire and her sapphire eyes turned to satire
Tell me why do you admire?
I feel kinda like a flat tire, flat choir or a bad hire
Yeah, I’m really sad tired
Cryo-sleep but I don’t shed a tear
When the high-lows peak know the end is near
I’m above and beyond
Play drums but can’t kick the feeling
That it has been eons of dealing with bullshit
I’m gunna fix it with a bullet
Barrel to my cranium, probably ‘bout to pull it
Little hard to cope with the drugs gone
Lately I’ve been scraping all my love songs
It’s a blue world, all these questions loaded
Wish I blew up but I just imploded

I’ve just been sinking, I drown in my sorries
I’ve just been thinking are we a mess?
Or are we just blessed? Or partly possessed?
A starry eyed sinner whose drinking his stress
And I don’t even know how its supposed to go
Can we dance around? Can you hold me down?
I’m under the Bodhi, its time to get going

Gotta play ‘till the coda
Finally feeling well, Fargo but I ain't in North Dakota
I be bankin’ on ya baby
Now I’m in withdrawal from the Oxycontin 80
My homeostasis stays on the suicide 
If that’s the question, is it do or die?
Nah, it's do and die, who I am?
Wonder why my feelings hurt
I’m real unsure of anything and everything
Ooo, find the keys to existence
Fire all my pistons but my pianos missing
I dunno why I’m so upset
I’m shaking all the sodas ‘cause life is a prank
Go attack ya from the flank
Everything at steak
Yeah for heaven’s sake I’m just praying for a break
Shh, Let me get my sleep
Should I count on you?
Or should I count my sheep?

Endless hours, scentless flowers
Sentence flow, end his woes
Hopeless journey, love gets dirty
Bye, bye, bye little birdie

I really like your face but your frequency hertz 
Get a little taste of how to vis-à-vis works
Fireworks from the get go
My lovers got an attitude but how can I be mad at you?
On, on, on like ellipsis 
Her lips be a little like a pixies
Round and round we go like a fixie 
Can you fix my heart quickly?

Can you fix my heart quickly?
Man, my lovers got an attitude

I’ve just been sinking, I drown in my sorries
I’ve just been thinking are we a mess?
Or are we just blessed? Or partly possessed?
A starry eyed sinner whose drinking his stress
I’m under the Bodhi, its time to get going

Lyrics:

Hey, hey, hey

Oh, I’m crying out for you

Walking down my path I’m the chosen one
Sorry to my mum about her broken son
Trying to turn this flicker to a blinding light
Ironic in death is when I’m finding life
I terraform pain to a lovely terrain
Plant an idea and pray for some rain
Roots, growth, choose hope
You could do a lot with two notes

Yeah I’m just one year sober, can I conquer booze?
I wanna go hide like the monsters do
Courage over comfort, keep my mantra true
It’s a blue world let me wander thru
Just a DJ who be scratching his head
Ponder the past ‘till I’m actually dead
Life is like a vinyl but there’s no side-B 
So I took a little time just to go find me

Life is so short
So open up your world and your eyes
I’m so lost trying to find where I’m supposed to go
Fantasy

Nah-nah, Nah-nah-nah

Can I see my fantasy? I think its fucking vanishing
To the pills on the vanity
Can I find the will to quit? Theres an addict in the fam tree
Dang nab-it, my band went and ban me
No one understands me, I think I hear a banshee
But the man on the banjo jams Queen
“God knows I wanna break free”
But I’m in a place where I’m low like the bass be
Then he talks me into detox
We chop some shop before he drops me off
The fear sets in like a deer in headlights
I’m either going to die or get my head right
I been feeling cross, I don’t want to be mad, be plaid
So I’m checking into rehab
I sweat, shake, hot, cold
Death aches but I got soul
Mustered up my brave so I could turn the page
Its time to catch up cuz I lost my way
It was hellish in fact but I relish in that
I was selfish and whack but you could tell that I’m back
Decant my misery, I wish it was history
Gotta a little itch now I need anti-histamine
Go to AA, have a great day
Say no way then my fate pays like eight ways
Check my philosophy, hip to my hypocrisy
Clean up my topography and now I’m loving all of me

This is luminescence in the truest essence
3rd eye blooms
Took a long time for me to learn my lessons

Yeah I’m just one year sober, can I conquer booze?
I wanna go hide like the monsters do
Courage over comfort, keep my mantra true
It’s a blue world let me wander thru
Just a DJ who be scratching his head
Ponder the past ‘till I’m actually dead
Life is like a vinyl but there’s no side B 
So I took a little time just to go find me

Life is so short
So open up your world and your eyes
I’m so lost trying to find where I’m supposed to go

Lyrics:

Do this nine to five but I'm adding four
A dozen ain't enough so I'm adding more
Is it love or war?
Perfectionist with an underscore
Never satisfied, but I won't settle
Flowers bloom, gotta move those pedals
Tour de France like every chance I get
I don't really know how to stand or sit

Woo! Yeah I'm such a workaholic
Baby don't mind I'm addicted to rap
Lost in these beats better pick up a map
Go twenty-four seven with the pen game
Let it permeate my membrane
And I don't really know how to divvy it out
Too hard with the flow now I'm hitting a drought
Overtime with the grammar
Until I hit the nail on the head with the hammer
Get used to the dope shit
Anything less and your boys getting dope sick
Yeah I'm such a
Yeah I'm such a workaholic
Baby don't mind I'm addicted to rap
Lost in these beats better pick up a map

In the lab on my days off
Same thing as I do on my days on
Always on my grind like Daewon
Songs everyday till the days gone
Got a flow like Poseidon I reside on the mic
Gotta go, yeah I'm trying but I'm stuck at a light
I'm working on the last bar, can't get it right
A little too intense but I'm not at a campsite
Me vs. pencil, that's a graphite
I was throwing dukes last night
I think I over did it now I'm paying the price
Fucking up is a given just a day in the life
Yeah, I'm dependent on the pen but I'm drawing a blank
I'm going thru withdrawals like I been at the bank
I'm training on these tracks like a train on these tracks
Put my name on the map
Heart rate hypertension
Irate, high percentage
Hearts been stolen, call forensics
Ego swollen, I'm all defensive
I'm tired like a wheel, that's just how I feel
Italics and bold are gunna take a toll
But I didn't hit snooze, I defined my goals
Stopped looking at my shoes to find my soul

Woo! Yeah I'm such a workaholic
Baby don't mind I'm addicted to rap
Lost in these beats better pick up a map
Go twenty-four seven with the pen game
Let it permeate my membrane
And I don't really know how to divvy it out
Too hard with the flow now I'm hitting a drought
Overtime with the grammar
Until I hit the nail on the head with the hammer
Get used to the dope shit
Anything less and your boys getting dope sick
Yeah I'm such a
Yeah I'm such a workaholic
Baby don't mind I'm addicted to rap
Lost in these beats better pick up a map

Yeah I'm such a workaholic
Baby don't mind I'm addicted to rap
Lost in these beats better pick up a map

Workaholic

Lyrics:

Feels so exhausting on my own
But its ecstasy with you
Feels like a million fireworks
Ecstasy yeah!

MDMA its intergalactic 
Feels so good when you been on my mattress
Where the heck’d ya go?
Now my serotonins low
MDMA its intergalactic 
Feels so good when you been on my mattress
Dilate my soul
You just dilate my soul

Got me swimming in infinity
Can you hold me down?
While you let me soar?
This mesomorph will wash ashore
Resuscitate me with euphoria  

I’m just so complicated
Intoxicated by your beauty, I explode
Heart is like a Rubik’s cube
You’re a genius who went and cracked my code
Somersaults in winter time
Drug me with your glitter eyes
Took Oxycontin like an Ibuprofen 
Now this oxytocin got me floating high
Theres no mistakes, its psychedelic, you envelope me
Send me off to Shangri-la, its like a lucid dream
We could la-la-la thru nightmares
Hold my hand, I’m quite scared
Yamaha, you found the key
Your melodies surrounding me

Got me swimming in infinity

Feels so exhausting on my own
But its ecstasy with you
Feels like a million fireworks
Ecstasy yeah!

MDMA its intergalactic 
Feels so good when you been on my mattress
Where the heck’d ya go?
Now my serotonins low
MDMA its intergalactic 
Feels so good when you been on my mattress
Dilate my soul
You just dilate my soul

Feels so exhausting on my own
(MDMA its intergalactic)
Its ecstasy with you
Feels like a million fireworks
(MDMA its intergalactic)
Ecstasy yeah!

MDMA its intergalactic
MDMA its intergalactic

Ecstasy (MDMA)
