lyrics

Now I feel the blues
That's what I choose
Like misplaced girl in mismatched shoes
Trying to stand out in the far out

You can find me in the distance
Pondering existence
Colder than the shoulders of the older getting bolder

And I'm just trying to stand out in the far out
I'm just trying to stand out in the far out

I love your little twitches
Your life given riches
You wear it like a princess
A princess
Uphill trek with a blank check
Still too busy thinking about if you're there yet
And you're there yet
And your hair's wet
Wetter than my eyes get
When the thought crosses that you'll forget
Dripping like a whore's sweat
Or red paint off a corvette
Not selling souls in stores yet
I guess I'll have to grow that

So I guess I'll have to grow
Knowing that I have to grow
I guess we all have got to grow

It's in the essence of her likeness
It's her eye twitch mixed with her high kicks
It's her moral landscape and her wet lips
It is everything I knew that I should be with
Yes
And it was sewn til the last stitch
And ripped like a gift on Christmas
Or ripped like a bitch who twists it
Then lit, exhales and glistens

So I guess you'll have to grow
Knowing that she has to grow
I guess we all've got to grow

It's kind of fucked up
It's quite fucked up
It's rather fucked up
But you know what?
I think we know
That we've all got to grow

As a matter of fact
Take my sweater back
Let it keep you warm when the weather's bad
At least remember that
At least remember that it can get better
And it will get better
And it has been better
And the has-been is what makes the world spin

GRiMMS & BLACKNiGHT Chicago, Illinois

GRiMMS & BLACKNiGHT was a Hop n' Roll duo based in Chicago. J.A. Grimms brings a unique touch to the traditional form of rapping with a folk-like approach to storytelling amidst BLACKNIGHT's dreamy, pulsing, 'woozy' production and rock-based guitar playing. They completed a full US tour in 2016 and went on to make an album with producer Brian Deck (Modest Mouse) under the project name Big Branch. ... more
