lyrics
Nights don’t get high but I’m still faded
Monotony in routine why, yo
Rollin’ nights, don’t get high but I’m still faded
Monotony in my routine why I feel jaded
Scattered scars in my regime when we picture paintin’
Monetary spike is for the moment but I’m still gainin’
I feel pain but I’m still waitin’
For a different day that I can say
My past life isn’t still changin’
My current endeavors and situations
The demons stray around my head
I guess that’s the way that they demonstrate it
I been havin’ little patience
I don’t really like you niggas to be frank
And when I say it you should know that
I don’t gotta rain over
I got dogs who gon’ really spray you
To that I tell you let’s be dangerous if you feelin’ gangsta
The drums breakin’ over instrumentals
I’m tryin’ not to be complacent, write my pieces when my thoughts erasing
Brought myself together now they’re breakin’
Never racin’ with doubt, steady pacin’ with myself
For worse or for better until I swerve in my Jetta
My words never let up
The first to break the curse in my generation
Stayin’ strong in my relationship, everyday it’s been something different
Battling frustration, ain’t shared a laugh in a minute
It’s like I ain’t been sad but I ain’t been happy, what is it?
Oh, what I wouldn’t give to count a stack in the back of a Sprinter
You know I’m standin’ on the edge of what I used to be
Throwin’ old habits out the window isn’t new to me
Funny as it may seem
Channel through a pen so I can summon what I can’t see
Trap your feelings in your heart, the love isn’t escaping
Tryna get on track just like a runaway train is
Above the clouds gazing
Scribblin’ a pattern like a butterfly wings is
If something don’t make sense attention ain’t paid there
Tryna find a way to drop the tension I created here
Feel no need to mention that these writtens how I make amends
Ain’t no love for friends if they intention isn’t genuine
I’ve committed sins I can’t repent
They still livin’ with me
Sacred how I’m livin’, patience is the mission
On a chase for bigger pictures
I been pacing myself different
Payin’ close attention see they changin’ colors vivid

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
