"Strange Days" is the single from our forth coming EP. 

Strange Days

See him flossing in that metal 
the game’s in a higher level 
Dimensions; we into several 
You see we get them together 
DIY fringe be swangin’ 
bangers-bangers he slanging 
Show on point, he slayin’ 
He wasn’t always this way in fact 
Brown boy slanted eyes 
bleach-stained sweat suit 
Throwin’ water on me 
in the middle school restroom 
Only brown head in my 9th grade play 
13 walking in the streets of uk 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Smiling through the vicious 
a puzzle piece never fittin’ 
a new thread that he was given 
to weave a singular vision 
Could never be avaricious 
instead a quiet ambitious 
No reason left to resist it 
a hater just sound fictitious 
So I’m not, quittin, they stay, squintin 
try to dictate a life they not, living 
T.O. been about that truth, spillin 
don’t buck like a deer when shots hit him 
Don’t Formula One this path that you’re on 
we all gotta make our own living 
Cry out loud, don’t stay, hidden 
fear to fail, say good riddance 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Nathaniel said: “you can’t see me” 
In February, he freed me 
Cleared my head of debris, 
we shattered my boundaries 
and the lowered degree was healing 
Winter was sorely needed 
Like Pakistan, I seceded 
my leaving won’t be repeated 
Never read for them tight roles 
My eyes looked where the sky goes 
So rare like albinos 
Poachers, we zoom right by those 
Few in number like rhinos 
Reaching up for them high notes 
Study me like yo bibles 
cats fall in line like I’m Lion-o 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
It’s like we’re never satisfied 
Right? 
 
 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
Got it locked 
with that namesake 
Won’t stay the same 
change like every day 
 
 
Now maybe there’s a lesson I've been given 
or some wisdom from the stories that I need to tell 
And everybody's hoping and scraping and wishing 
they could be something outside themselves 
If I can be me, then you can be yourself 
might not be easy, it’s like we’re never satisfied

An essential piece of DJ History here! Starting in the early 1980s, Mills, using the name "The Wizard", was a recurring guest DJ on "The Electrifying Mojo" radio show on WJLB in Detroit. He performed DJ tricks like beat juggling and scratching during his sets (some of which were pre-recorded).

Recorded by a guy called Needlz way back when in 7 parts, more of which will follow.
