1.
Verse I held it closely right beside my heart Where you used to be where you used to be It's just a bottle and all that's left is glass I feel this empty I feel this empty Oh I hate to admit that you're gone CHORUS And I lay these words down Like flowers on a grave Play every sound Of every melody we made Of queens & crowns Was it memory or charade A charade Verse Tomorrow I'll rise Maybe I'll be happier Like I used to be Like I used to be. I can't feel anything And it's hiding all my pain Oh I cry out Oh I cry out Oh I hate to admit that you're gone
2.
VERSE 1 I guess it seems that the only love I saw in my life Would always walk away or never be a part of me I'd hold it inside I never really thought that there'd be anybody that I'd wanna impress Until the day you came into my life Now I've got to confess CHORUS Darling U know You're the only one on my mind VERSE 2 While the rest of the world is sleeping I stay up late at night thinking of you You looked into my eyes and told me that you love me That our dreams would come true And I'd believe it if it wasn't just me dreaming That our love could be true Just take a look inside the corners of my mind Every thought is of you You're the only one (On my mind)

VERSE 1 I used to see the world in colors I used to hold my hands up high But now I bruise so tenderly in black and white Fading slowly, I can barely see myself They tell me their versions of my future They tell me that home is somewhere here I quickly move from tragedy to tragedy Until I see the world from eyes that save CHORUS I'm laying down all of the things the world just wants me to be I'm letting go of all the things that have let go of me And now I lay down all the memories that set me free And now I'm letting all my hopes and dreams come true before me. VERSE 2 So many things the world is throwing at my feet From way up here the air is quite thin But all I wanted was to live in the light To be sober to all this heaviness inside

Indigo Road 05:02
Verse I know I'd do it again Be your escape and amen Oh we were nervously moving In a space that drew us in And so with you I let go And I entered into the darkness below And we sang with the fallen angels For just a moment felt whole Prechorus It's getting harder and harder for me to breathe Treading under the waters of humanity But tell me dear friends when will we see Chorus I'm just walking this indigo road I'm surrounded everywhere that I go I'm just walking down this indigo road And I'm still searching for a place to call home So I guess I'll just keep walking some more Verse 2 Moved to the city of angels All the bright lights, street signs, confines make it so hard to pray All the vibrations in the airwaves Make it so very hard to find my way Yesterday seems so long ago With no seasons the days move so slow Palm trees that ease into the sun But I guess I'll find home on the run

Verse 1 In early morning shadows   I tried my best to hide away Thoughts of you that follow When I've lost you just the same Well you never really seem to find All the love you've been looking for  But you never really tried so hard To find who you were before Been so long since I held you Don't wanna hold these thoughts inside my head I try my best to avoid you But I never wanna let go of the things you said Been so long since I held you Don't wanna hold these thoughts inside my head I try my best to avoid you But I never wanna let go of the things you said The things we said Let go of the things we said The things we said Let go of the things we said Verse 2 I try so hard to be steady But I keep falling time and time again. I lose myself in this vanity Desperation for a saving hand Well you never really seem to find All the love you've been looking for  But you never really tried so hard To find who you were before Been so long since I held you Don't wanna hold these thoughts inside my head I try my best to avoid you But I never wanna let go of the things you said Been so long since I held you Don't wanna hold these thoughts inside my head I try my best to avoid you But I never wanna let go of the things you said The things we said Let go of the things we said The things we said Let go of the things we said The things we said Let go of the things we said

Postlude 04:11
Verse 1 May the grace be with you In all your days And nights bring blessings In a quiet resting place May your hearts be stirred with kindness Reaching out for those in need And though the smoke is ever rising May you slowly learn to breathe Chorus This world is changing me But I'll still love you faithfully. This world is changing me But I'll still love you faithfully. So darling can't you see I'm trying so hard, I’m trying to be What you see in me. Verse 2 May peace be with you As you feel the coming war May you hear the knock in silence Revealing death could be at the door May you laugh as you once did In your favorite childhood memory And may you feel the furtive glances In every moment's revelry Won’t you feel, yes won’t you feel

about

14 Track Deluxe Edition of the experimental EP Album titled 'BALTIMORE BOULEVARD' that originally released Nov 3, 2017.


“This is a collection of music where each song has been influenced by my experiences living and growing up in Baltimore and all the unique individuals I’ve crossed paths with. ‘Baltimore Boulevard’ is not an actual boulevard in Baltimore, however I wanted to pay homage to the city I call home via this term. A boulevard is often used to describe a wide, well-paved thoroughfare, often made beautiful through landscaping and scenery. Baltimore oftentimes gets a lot of negative flak as a rough city, but by living there for almost two decades, I have come to know the streets and the people more intimately and believe that there is a deep beauty in its brokenness, much like each and every one of us.

I’ve spent the majority of my life in Baltimore and its diversity has both challenged and refined me, pushing me to grow and love people. It is in Baltimore where I learned to attempt to love people and leave them in a better place than I found them. Baltimore is also a city of neighborhoods. Each has a unique culture with different types of people. Black music has made the greatest impact on my art and love for music. The city of Baltimore and its people have left an indelible mark on both who I am as a person & as a musician, as well as the art I continue to create.”
