She Tried 03:58
She puts her spirit in a nightcap, She always knows where the crowd's at She puts her mouth 'round a cigarette I put it out 'cause she like it (x2) Chorus: Rah, rauh In the right way...

Friends 03:35
She was, she was A friend of mine (x7) Chorus A friend of mine (a friend) Do us a favor (x4) I came to hate her (x2) Chorus

You know I'm already here Wherever you are baby For you, for you, for you I know Chorus: I know what you want I know, I know what you want to see

A friend I found me Sinking in a university lecture hall Feeling all momma I made it All hands raised Eagerly submissive Begging for a seat at a table I set Who lent me to you anyway? Was it my mother? Naw Was it the back door? Did you arrive on a night when we were flying with each other in our sleep Did you pretend you were the wind How many scriptures did it take to bewitch us To smother under your wing Where is your home Can you point to it on a map with a bloodless finger Say, This is where we the shot the Healer The Umi and child The Descendants of the gold complected with Sun for feet! Oh, the pain of being a surrogate to some trifling dog

Please be gone by morning

Late Autumn 05:45
You've been borrowing me for so long, that I forgot to demand myself back.

about

It's been 9 months since my last album. A lot has happened, and it's important that, after all these horrible events, that we reflect. That we heal ourselves. That we recover from the personal and the political, and we steel ourselves for the incoming trials ahead. Because for as low as we feel now, there's going to be another lower hole if we don't start climbing now.

Because it's better to recover something instead of nothing.
