lyrics
RED
Stay close my brother, Imma roast another over the flame
Golden and green in the autumn, gottem rainbows all arranged
Gottem nom nommin on my rhyming like that ramen at school
1999ing y'all, I'm nobody's fool
There was a time when doorbell chiming was the way you could call
If you're not with me could not see me at all, stay close my brother
You could see I'm holding a truth, golden and
blue, rolled in the dust, Red Jess'll fold in with few, cuz
You're still just tweeting your guts, something to
Prove like you got nothing to lose, but you forgot love
You had my trust, go ahead and run for office I guess but
Just remember this one, that root, them nuts, that God for the genuflect
One love, thought you said Christ came twice for the
Love, thought you said God was my only
Judge, thought you sang for the land of the
Free, well how the fuck did you not mean
Us? I'm a pilgrim, let me walk. I'm a ill one, I'm a ill one
just like you and everybody else brown white blue
Imma get my money up before the bill come
Imma keep a little money for the beer run
Imma dap my wife with the Top Gun high five, top bottom
Giving out a High Life, why not love a brother if he get the job done
Right? You forgot love, right? What? Emotion don't rub ya right?
You so uptight like you upright, it's a color wheel but you stuck white
I'm ultraviolet, I'm infrared, y'all getting burned in the sunlight
Undyne, Undyne, live long, one time, one time, put em up
Every day I wanna come right, Dead side scroll and I give song
Undyne, Undyne, live long, one line, one line, live it up
FRED
Little tiny baby bird on a branch
With no mama, baby perched on a branch
Wanna see how it occur in the wild
Looking for a predator in the tree
Mama hasn't been around in a week
It's a million things gotta eat
Hibernating deep in a sleep
Migrating going down for the heat
Little baby bird
RED
I'm a kingfisher, bitch, I'm a heron
I'm a sparrow you mosquito I'm famished
I'm perched I'm searching for the perch in the ocean
Ya waves crashing Imma smash in and snatch em
I'm a kingfisher, bitch, I'm a heron
I'm a sparrow you mosquito I'm famished
I'm swooping for ya worm I'm ripping and tearing
Word, birds, y'all hungry, I'm sharing
Apparently Americans think that this shit's guaranteed
that's why they're clucking and they're strutting so arrogantly
There ain't shit that I can say to make you care again so
Just zip it bigots y'all are spitting so embarrassingly
It's obvious a bunch of monkeys all evolved into you
Well a pack of velociraptors all evolved into me
My evolution love revolution till D-E-A-D
I hold my neighbor in my heart y'all can come fuck with me
I got this attitude cause I was born in North Carolina
Don't ever tell me that we're weak down here we went for Obama
Red Jesse red-blooded red meat eating and reading
But I'll munch on you herbs too if you show up to the feeding
I'm just trying to be a grown up
if I find that I'm wrong then I come right
if I slip then I own up
that's just how the Kimmels and Chapmans shown us
but then I look at these old bucks
ones supposed to clothe us and hold us
Bambaataa and POTUS
hold up, so just being a grown up don't hold up
God damn now I gotta get these sleeves rolled up
W-I-N-G-S-P-A-N, throw em up
This album is like a revolving door of Top Gun beach volleyball high fives. This jam is outta Wilmington, NC, and "Stasis" is stuck in our heads. Dead Sea $crilla
No, you're right, laughing and crying are not very different. What you're saying is also true, being a person sucks and is great. This tough shit is from Charlotte, NC Dead Sea $crilla
Mikal is prolific and sad. The title track will get stuck in your head (it will) and improve your year (or maybe not). Full disclosure, Red's got a verse on this john. Straight from the NC mountains. Dead Sea $crilla
supported by 6 fans who also own “Bird On A Branch”
Every song is a jam, and it features an all star cast of guests on these tracks about sadness, loneliness, and other super fun topics we dont always have the balls to talk about, yet Mikal always manages to turn into songs you cant stop singing. Such a great album, and I highly suggest that you buy this AND Human Disaster. Just saying. Jessica Evans aka PokeMC Sapphire
