LYRICS:
this story starts with the gospel of life / rise and shine, smell of hot cakes and eggs, that's nice / a little something that feels just right / my cream of wheat lumpy, the way i like / go ahead and take a bite of the kix berries / finish every last bit, but just barely / cause it's rarely a thought i ain't oughta think about / take a trip out to grandma's house no doubt / hoppin on the 48 i could never be late / to the southside i was practically raised / and i would practice for days just to master the ways / she acted amazed, a gentleman at my age / but that's just a page in the book of Z / take a look and you will see the MC that she raised to be / labeled me Turtle T, who I am currently ... another jog down memory lane / go ahead ask my sister she would tell you the same / my love is a fire, she ignited the flame / and i am who i am cause of the man that she made / and the manners she gave, i will take to the grave / i'm thankful i behave in a dignified way, diggin deep is ok, but hey, it was sad / i was 12 when she passed, in my opinion too fast, now i dedicate it all to you forever you'll last
when you're down and out
(pick yourself back up)
feeling life is a defeat
(you ain't done)
just hold your head up high
(keep your head high)
and know that she's watching us pass by
imagine coming up greeted by a hug, in the summertime i would get bit by all the bugs / i could recall when we would crawl up the wall / my momma would yell, maybe scared that we'd fall / i see the scene so vividly when tummy was hungry, top ramen was the remedy / pray we will remember we would walk up the hill, have a talk with uncle bill / we didn't know our pops, you had love for us still / and it felt like a dream, it would give me the chills. eating cookies n cream there's so much that you mean even after this / and i knew you were an activist, "save our valley" was your everlasting wish / i admit i was pissed when they sold your property, brought us close to poverty, honestly probably it all happened for a reason / your garden would bloom in any ol' season but it hurt with you leaving / now you're scarred on my arm and my heart is left bleeding / pain is misleading cause hey, i am believing you're in a better place, i can still see your face, i can't wait for the day i can feel your embrace / take me to the sun when i find kingdom come / and if i am late meet me by the gate i'll have a whole lot of stories, glory save me a plate. hey grandma save me a place
thanks for all the love everyone! album drops dec 2nd at dynojamz.bandcamp.com (which is empty for now), and if you live around seattle you can catch us at chop suey on the same night. :)
