about

A virtual collaboration between friends and family <3

It really means a lot being able to create with friends right now. The fact that folks were willing to be honest, and open with where they're at was humbling and therapeutic at the same time.

The fact that two of my sisters sent lyric suggestions makes me super zoinked! This is the first song i've done with family!

lyrics

I try to focus but I can’t stop thinking
about babies in cages and black people dying
the virus will destroy us all

I miss hugging my mom and i try to
i try to focus but its all gone awry
hocus and pocus
stray from my mind
its all feeling hopeless

my mind is adrift and it’s all I can sing to
i notice I cling to my life and live like a locust
or maybe I unravel like the pedals of the lotus.

I try to focus but it’s all in vain
i feel insane on this dead end train
somebody help reclaim my name
and stop this never ending self blame game

Check it
I try to focus
Chill
Facts
Stay in my pocket
Flyin through the air
take a drive so i feel more real
Burning these days down


I can’t focus find my weird card and gold it
over
Find myself in 4 leaf clover
What the Hell ?
I’m outta here
I can’t focus
But I have no fear

Check it
Check it

I try to focus but
all these posts ask the world of me
I try to focus but
i don’t want to see.
