outrageous A well-done track, between smooth house beat & a great groovy flow. Like to listen to it, on a sunny day. Definitly recommanded!

:\\Trippy Longstalkings This track is so damn catchy. I never heard of this artist until i stumbled on it here at bandcamp. I'm happy i did though,

lyrics

Things

Things, on my mind when I wake up/
Things, all my time try to take up/
if I could save up money like worry I'd be a rich man but the sorrow would plague much/ I have made up the fiction/
that I'm the center of a system/
causing the day's rust /
center stage in a monologue play of/
me & the audience all in my make up/
what a view & it's all the show/
assuming what I'm doing's what you already know/
I think I'm in the middle of a palm heavy globe/
everybody trying to steal what I already own/ but oh in this life we are all but alone/
but feeling that you are is a problem condoned/
so sunlight is a spotlight that we hold/
like it's one light & we cuff tight until it's gone/
one candle on the cake for the taking/
souls set sail on a race trying to take wind/ we are faves in the chips that we place in/
I better build self anybody else cave in/
so I'm holding on to pressure like it's all mine/
that ain't sweat it's just the way I keep the floors shined/
everybody queued up for the long grind/ thinking that we're next in a short line/

Thinks I'm going through (chorus)

I want a lot more things/
biggie tried to tell me what a lot more brings/ a head strong man will take a lot more strain/ seeing pleasure in the presence of slot more pain/
it's like I'm in the plot of a horror flick scene/ & i'ma run towards where I thought I heard screams/
cause things draw me like a self portrait/ blank paper trying to fill it with a lot more green/
cause things make life & life worth living/
is a life worth giving to a fight for dreams/ but when your schemes matter more than the next man/
the next mans matter more than the rest than/
we all forget we are not all things/
so i'ma take in the line/
all those behind me can chill/
but if I was the last, I'd probably be the first one to wine/
for real/

Things I'm going through (chorus)

We just want to matter more/
trying to be the matador/
in a pit of bull/
trying to gather our status in the masses/ looking at the glass saying that's pitiful/
I ain't seeing what you're seeing cause your problems ain't my problems how you solve them really I don't even care/
putting pressure on my shoulders that ain't really there/
but I know you see it when you stare/

Things I'm going through (chorus)

Big but tight energy from this album that perfectly fit the closed-up vibe of the pandemic and reminded you to call your loved ones. It feels like these important folks in Amir's life each get a bit of their vibe wrapped into the song following. Sable Knight

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic
