about

Everybody has their funny little quirks... It's okay! It's not just you!

This track was a long distance Twelve Above collaboration, recorded in Michigan and Tennessee

lyrics

Loop swoop and pull I never forgot,
I tie my shoes in a double knot
Put hiking boots on for a walk in the park,
Excited every step like I’m Lewis and Clark

Every time i shave i wish i had a beard,
No one ever knows just how I'll appear
I walk into a room and I wonder why,
My memory these days is in short supply

Pacing while I’m talking on the phone,
Popcorn and a movie I’m in the zone
Talk to myself when no ones around,
Eat junk food every day if I’m feeling down

Piling up the mail to read someday,
Just a bunch of bills I don't wanna pay
Meant to wax the car since 2018,
But after it rains you know, it looks pretty clean

I made it harder than it had to be
It took to long but now I see
It’s okay to be me
It’s okay to be me

Breaking little laws that don’t hurt no one,
Sometimes being bad is kind of fun
Comb my hair where it used to be,
Wish I was cool and drove a HumVee

I like to wear the hats that no one else wears,
And like a lot of posts that nobody shared
Wake up at five without an alarm,
Got a lot to do before I buy the farm

Everybody hides the little things
That are too bizarre
But all these little things make us who
They make us who we are

I made it harder than it had to be
It took to long but now I see
It’s okay to be me
It’s okay to be me

Our music is a soulful blend of music styles born from rock solid grooves simmering in funk-flavored, soul-seasoned, and blues-basted overtones with hints of southern rock, blues rock and even an occasional sprinkle of country rock to boot. ... more
