the title of this song is just genius, really love your whole aesthetic just captures your genius creativity, would you be down to check out my work

I have a secret and I mean to keep it
but the things that escape my keep
the stuff of legend upon which I feast
comes a-crawlin from the ooze
the prim-a-ordial soup o'fools
and there exists no order tough enuf
to kill the beasts from the crazy world of 
stone dissention overrun my attention
flee the scene
yea...so obscene these brutes
yea
I have a secret and I mean to keep it
for in my burden basket I've kept a version
that's quite drastic
yea oooo Oh
and baby - comes a-crawlin from the ooze
the prim-a-ordial soup o' fools
yea...and I can run
U can hide
but there ain't no returnin to that life behind the curtain
and if there's one thing I've been a-learnin
it feels so good to let it go
yea Oh O
cause those things that escape my keep
the stuff of legends upon which we feast
comes a-crawlin up from that ooze
the prim-a-ordial soup O'fools

Soup O Fools

Today I am imbued with the palor of ur cruel
for upon the wall I hang...yea
for the turning of the screw
and if I were a stone...I'd be nothing but
a tool, yea
cause all I've ever known...gets me judged
by a fool like U
go on baby...turn the screw
and if the one has turned U on...then go ahead and turn two
yea baby
cause I'm just a fool...like U
yea and lately there's a crowd
came to watch this witless duel
yea...while U humble brag ur grievance
with the turning of the screw and
I'd be nothing but
a tool, yea
cause all I've ever known...gets me judged
by a fool like U
go on baby...turn the screw
and if the one has turned U on...then go ahead and turn two
yea baby
cause I'm just a fool...like U

A Fool Like U

Are U catching all the memories I've been
throwing out
the ones U swore U didn't have
and does ur throat go dry like U might cry
cause what goes missing as a lie becomes
a truth for U and I
that leaves no doubt
yea and I cherished those blu marbles
the engine trains, and the pirate ships
and I've tucked away the strays that make 
my heart skip...yea and I may never understand
despite the mounds of evidence
how U let ur love slip yea
Are U catching all the memories I've been
throwing out
the ones U swore U didn't have
and does ur throat go dry like U might cry
cause what goes missing as a lie becomes
a truth for U and I
and I've spent the better part of the year
'tween the floor and ur false twin mirror
tearing down what we had built
and chuckin in the guilt...cause even
a mother's love can't save U from
the storm Are U catching all the memories I've been
throwing out
the ones U swore U didn't have
and does ur throat go dry like U might cry
cause what goes missing as a lie becomes
a truth for U and I
that leaves no doubt

Ur Love Slip

Slap me with ur backhand and I'll turn
the other cheek...cause I dare U
...to strike again to determine if I'm weak
and while I might seem stubborn...
...if U look where I was struck
ur palm, a print now stuck...and
lookin like a sunburn
yea a flash to sear me up
leave a mark 'fore U fill ur cup cause
its no matter to U to leave me plucked
and busted...on the side curb
O and I promise to be fair
when its me who sits to strike
cause babe, not everyone waits to do...
until they're liked
cause if I turn my other cheek
then I dare U...strike again cause I'm not 
weak, yea
now I'm lookin like a sunburn
yea a flash to sear me up
leave a mark 'fore U fill ur cup cause
its no matter to U to leave me plucked
and busted...on the side curb
and while I might seem stubborn...
...if U look where I was struck
ur palm, a print now stuck...and
lookin like a sunburn

The Side Curb

OOOOOweeee Oh baby
I used to really want U...trust me...
O baby...but the only thing I can think of
O is the way U let urself get dusty
yea O yea
like a summer room over winter...
or the ashes left from burnt cinders...
U gone dry and over comfy babe
cause ur just dusty...yea trust me...
O baby, the way ur words be lookin 
pale and fragile as a siren's wail
O baby...and the only thing I can think of
is the way u let urself get so dusty
yea so there I go...walkin on busted shells
and I feel so gutsy...just a lil dusty
gonna get a take back
O yea
like a summer room over winter
or the ashes left from burnt cinders
U ain't lucky bae...U just dusty

Ur Just Dusty

If I want to know U
if I want to see thru
all I gotta do is see U...from ur mama's point of view
how she'd love tru
lookin straight into ur heart
and I see U as U rise
shake the sleep from ur limbs
all a-wonder as U discover things
and ur whisper to stay quiet
while mama's sleepin in
yea that's the U I'm seekin
so when I meet U while ur down
...and reekin, I meditate b4 speakin, cause
If I want to know U
if I want to see thru
all I gotta do is see U...from ur mama's point of view
how she'd love tru
lookin straight into ur heart
and I see U as U rise
shake the sleep from ur limbs
all a-wonder as U discover things
and ur whisper to stay quiet
while mama's sleepin in
yea that's the U I'm seekin
yea that's the U I'm seekin

Shake The Sleep

When I was younger
I learned to contemplate...
move in silence til I situate
and I've captured temperance
to help me demonstrate my skills
yea
I got trampled in the ring til I learned to ride
that thing...and now in my battles
and in my peace
I've learned to balance my inner beast
yea
and she's my war pony
a promise to keep me from getting lonely
and low...yea O
I was mishandled and done in
like a set of shackles closing on my skin
so I went low to collect myself
stayed down as I learned my tells
so now there's no cracks in my walls
no fools roamin in my halls
and I got trampled in the ring til I learned to ride
that thing...and now in my battles
and in my peace
I've learned to balance my inner beast
yea
and she's my war pony
a promise to keep me from getting lonely
yea...gettin lonely

A Promise

Man down in the river
fightin like a dog...
but all that pluck went to hell
when he got kicked by the river god
and now he's just rolling in the current
gettin pulled beneath the surface
cold and ugly waters on the rise
and there's no way of telling
if he lives or dies
yea
and in the water the waves crash and 
drown...the dying man's cries
O man down in the river
fightin like a dog
and should the waters be his grave
he'll take it with the river god
yea...he don't need wings in the water
and a halo shines too bright
so the river god just walks the surface
cause he's the river
and he's the fight
and now he's just rolling in the current
gettin pulled beneath the surface
cold and ugly waters on the rise
and there's no way of telling
if he lives or dies

River God

I've been feelin like a hoarder
cause my mind's been outta order
and there's so much pressure on me
I truly...wish I could get off
but the kids are lookin to me
and the press wants opportunities
hoping I will fall...'fore I get off
and Sherlock's in my foyer...shootin up with
my ex-lawyer
while Watson twists my arm until I cough
yea...tell me, how do I get off
O proud boys in their cruisers
flashin lights cause they're all losers
trynna look tough when they're all soft
wish you'd stifle that last 'heil'
and finally learn what it means to be a boss
yea cause
I've been feelin like a hoarder
cause my mind's been outta order
and there's so much pressure on me
I truly...wish I could get off

To Be A Boss

OOOO it was late in the evening
...creepin past ten
and all the babies fed and cleaned...yea
leaving me all alone
cause they're tucked in their beds
and I find myself dancing like I'm floating
like a honey bee...yea
and I can see yea ye
all different patterns in motion
swirls and curls like tendrils of time
and I could get lost in the spaces
between the days..
cause I'm swinging on a honey vine
just above the waves
and I can see yea ye
all different patterns in motion
swirls and curls like tendrils of time

Like Tendrils Of Time

I don't bother fixing holes when the spotlight's on
and there's only a few souls hanging round
when it's done and gone
and I don't guess I'll be remembered
for the assist today...and that's ok
cause I'm here on purpose
not for the accolades but if it's anger and razorblades - gonna be the sway
I just gotta ask U...are U ok?
yea
cause I know the kind of pressure
you've been facing...I can see it in the 
corners of ur eyes
and everytime U smile...there's another part 
of U that drifts away and dies
and I'm trying to be patient
look away when I need to cry
cause damn you've gone the distance
and now ur just drifting away
on a dead tide...yea and
 I don't bother fixing holes when the spotlight's on
and there's only a few souls hanging round
when it's done and gone

Dead Tide

🤟🏼Working on new patterns and techniques in composition, production, and performance of both instrumental(classical/acoustic guitar) and voice- pieces are built (loops and beats)..on BandLab @nyla_k00  and Soundtrap (new)

I have removed the (amp) tag for consistency in distribution- acoustic pieces I perform will be tagged as ‘acoustic’ (apologies for page reorganization)

TBH, I aspire to be a guitar 🎸 but I’ll settle for being able to play competently what I hear when I write...(one day, Alice...to the moon)

I study under Duncan L. Wood and am grateful for his guidance and patience. Most of my influences are Folk/Blues/Indie, but inspiration arrives in many forms so HT to Hip Hop, Rap, Classical, especially Chamber trios. Current tracks are first cuts and I may update them in the future with cleaner versions, thank you for listening as I learn.
