Ain’t thinking too hard about it They say the hardest part of a task is just to start it Yeah flows cathartic uh on the mic I come correct like an audit Back to class like august schooling you artist look I gotta clear my headspace I got big goals and anxiety’s deadweight Never wait for others to make moves happen Said I’d do it myself and thats no cappin Your captain until I’m one of the dead poets Legendary like Kanye and Hov looping Otis Fuck 12 they kill us and send no condolence I pay tax to fund my opponents I aint hopeless tho, I’ll make noise until I ain’t got a voice to flow You can find me in the streets like the homeless folk And if this intro is too deep I apologize I feel qualified to say Said ima need my need my flowers today Don’t wait until it’s too late I’m done with social media I’m tired of yall spreading news thats about as true as shit on wikipedia And if we disconnect I never needed ya I live my life let God be the judge My best friend think our whole friend group could use therapist Yeh this the life we inherited Aspirations of living elegant Black excellent and feminist to me there’s nothing more relevant Peep the etiquette, finer than most Eat with my bros then I’m making a toast Spread love while I have the chance Before the day it’s outta my hands Said ima need my need my flowers today Don’t wait until it’s too late

Got lots of lessons I've learned at others expense I wish I had good excuses I got no defense Mistakes that I had to make to be the man I am now I told my ex, my last ex wished for the man I am now I try not to dwell, But I’ve done a lot of growing inside of this shell I’m a bronxite, bars colder than Klondike Talk about my fam and its on site I’m like the dark knight if he ever came uptown Never thought Id see the day my whole city shut down I was posed to be in Berlin throwing back a shot glass My momma always say we make and plans and God laughs thats facts, yeah I got a lot of goals But I try to only focus on what I can control Making beats on computers but they still got soul And i prolly still be recording when Im scrawny and old Hablo español my pops came in the eighties From the other half of Haiti, hustling on the daily I try to think of his struggle whenever Im feeling lazy Tho I work harder than most dont try to play me grew up on chicken wings from the chinos Me I like my girls reals spicy like jalapeños Know a couple dudes be scamming like a casino Gotta get it how ya can when you starting from zero ya dig Yea I seen a lot Been lots of places And I ain't gon stop I been grinding all my life cause I really want more Spending all this money on things I can't afford Just know I really want it I’m hustla to the core I ain’t focused on before, I want more

about

I've been meaning to make some music like this for a long while - just honest raps over beautiful music. Thank you to my brother Blane Mitchell for creating these magical guitar-based tracks. Thank you to my other brother July Quin for always being down to create with me. My sound isn't my sound without your touch. Thank you to America for being so amazing and incredibly easy to work with. I didn't have a super clear vision for what I wanted yet somehow you understood and over delivered. Super special shout out to my bro Bryant who went super ham creating this artwork... every line and detail here was hand drawn and put together in a thoughtful way. Thank you! This short project wouldn't be what it is without you guys.

These songs were all created during quarantine: March-June 2020.

Available now on all the DSPs!
