mynameisblueskye This is the kind of album that is so messy that you don't get how it all actually works so damn well together. It's cacophony that works together as a singular piece of art. Jazz, trap, R&B, blues, field recordings, he threw all of it AND the kitchen sink to make a R&B record that is perfect for those into musical wanderlust.

It's kinda funny how right now is nebulous Can't pin it down It's always a step ahead of-- You can't get to the other side to figure it out It's kinda funny how we all wanna do it though It's part of how we live And with the way it's set up for us We gon' party 'cause it's never gon' end Say ooooooooh And like a magnet I try to grab it But we repel instead Say ooooooooh See when I turn my back It's like a jacket Don't I look good in this It's kinda funny how I'm putting on a show for me Playin' all the parts I don't know how I'm doin' it How the hell did I create this illusion? It's kinda funny how I gotta keep it going though It's the only thing I got I think I'm gonna live foreva-eva I wouldn't be able to tell if not Say ooooooooh And like a magnet I try to grab it But we repel instead Say ooooooooh See when I turn my back It's like a jacket Don't I look good in this Can't get down to it But we still movin'

_Stuck_ 03:41
I know how it is You been feelin' stuck 'Cause you said you would Go and make a change But that didn't happen Instead you went back to your regular I know how it is You been feelin' stuck 'Cause you said you would Go and make a change But that didn't happen Instead you went back to your regular All I want Nowadays, all i want is some peace of mind I know I'm okay but it really don't feel that way to me At least not right now All I want Most days I just wanna feel a flow goin' I know I get in my own way But I really feel like a slave to this And I wanna be free right now I know The devil knows when I wanna get a move on The second I say I don't wanna do this no more There it appears, I see it right now I know I know how it is You been feelin' stuck 'Cause you said you would Go and make a change But that didn't happen Instead you went back to your regular I know how it is You been feelin' stuck 'Cause you said you would Go and make a change But that didn't happen Instead you went back to your regular

Zone Out 01:47
what you waitin’ for all you need is to zone out and ain’t no other perfect moment better g’on in, hone in on what you want when you gon’ get a grip on it? that of a grappler, own it matter fact, might have to tackle opponents that be deep in your soul as your soul gets dragged down an even deeper hole by your own machine you see what your life is about as you climb out and you might’a found something you love in the thick of it i suggest, from what i’ve witnessed take things one at a time so you can learn how to stick with it and don’t be afraid to fail, that ain’t never gon’ get you shit if you got the feelin' in you to do it now go 'head and do it now stop listening to my album just go do it now

Girl and we don't play no parts, well except for who we are I just want you babe I want the in's and out's The up's and down's Don't you rearrange yourself for no one else but you 'Cause baby I just want you to be you No, you don't have to change for me I just want you to be you 'Cause you know it makes me melt when you be youself Oh girl, this ain't no exchange And there ain't no dotted line where you can sign your name I just want you babe I want the in-between's and all around Don't you rearrange yourself for no one else but you 'Cause baby I just want you to be you No, you don't have to change for me I just want you to be you 'Cause you know it makes me melt when you be yourself
