Dollars Days: You must pay 100 cents to make sense at dollar days

I spend my days as a mason laying bricks in a line Everybody’s got a job to do by day and this is mine I spend my nights as a player posted up in the paint Nobody can block a dunk from this bricklayer I can’t be restrained

Last night I dreamt I stayed up all night I woke up more tired than I’ve felt before
4.
I was working hard at a dead end job I had this thought: “What if I didn’t work here anymore?” I started my search with an open mind and a great resume “I’ll just go back to school”

The band next door is just fucking around They haven’t played a fucking gig in a while A waste of electricity they practice right next to me I’m thinking of knocking on their door and telling them to shut the fuck up. Some of us have work to do Some of us have fans that are counting on us
16.
Call Outs 00:13
Calling out all call-outs: I’m calling you out for calling out this guy name Colin “I heard he’s a shit bag Let’s get him”

I turn the key, the engine roars Now I’m soaring down the pike Carefree and full of life It’s what I need Some time behind the wheel

Why did you vote that way on an issue so important to me? It’s unbelievable It’s inconceivable that I would vote for you who votes that way

Office treats in the common space I’m gonna stuff you right in my face I don’t care much for a calorie count satisfaction's what it’s all about It was a good idea at the time but if I could take it back and rewind I would pass on the donut with the jelly ‘cause now it feels like a ton of bricks in my belly, uhhhh

about

For the month of January, I wrote and recorded a short song each day. My goal was to push myself to flush out ideas when I would normally shelf them or throw them away. I wanted to use the project as a way to force myself get better with certain instruments and recording technology including the Pro Tools, MPC1000 sequencer, and Yamaha DX-7 synthesizer (my new favorite). The result is an album of shorts, called "Cheese Plate Explanations."
