Gram 02:33
With cheeks like pillows I dream of leaning against my grandmother willow A balance beam beneath my feet so little I can’t believe I made it here to the middle of everything I know I must make time to fill my cup Priorities like vines keep crawling up And if I drink those lies I might throw up because I know I cannot be made to lose my Cheeks like pillows My grandma told me that I have already been home Knows I’ve been searching so much more than a zip code Spiritual Zillow I know I know identity I know that it’s already me And not any answer to So what are you Baby don’t answer to So what are you I'm just a gram like you So who are you A human through and through We hyphey up on a school night Got the kool aid we hair dye Stolen eyeliner so glossy Fake tattoos till the sunrise Still got photos of your granny Know I ain’t even sure why Ain’t even sure why Ain’t even sure why So when you asked for my opinion, I could tell we were still tight Like the jeans around our thighs Wearing things for the first time Pour that chili pepper limón salt on cucumbers all night You can always crash here Don’t really need an invite Not any answer to So what are you Baby don’t answer to So what are you I'm just a gram like you So who are you A human through and through One day you will wake up and you’ll feel One day you will wake up and you’ll feel at home One day you will wake up and you’ll feel You can carry it You can carry it with you You can carry it Carry it with you

Same Tho 03:51
Twisting my hair around braids Like they had me running down every staircase They're tryna see me outta breath They're dyin’ to see that I'm fully authentic as flesh I can feel in my gut like I already know I've got satellites, spirits, and angels but I think they might be the same though I think they might be the same though I keep my ear to the ground when I walk Feet feel deep underground like I might pull up roots when I cross Heart so green like a moss Grown in the shade now I shine like a boss And fruit like a lot I remember those days when I didn't really know if I would ever age, or if I'd be giving up But I'm glad I found a way Steady growing Knowing Know I stand to gain Know I stand to conquer I can channel rainbows in my hands like chompanyankas Know I had to find a way Steady growing Knowing Know I stand to gain Know I stand to conquer I can channel Venus in my veins as much as Mars and there were times I thought that Pluto was my hometown But I can feel the truth is in my bones now I think they might be the same though I think they might be the same though I keep my ear to the ground when I walk Feet feel so deep underground like I might pull up roots when I cross Heart so green like a moss Grown in the shade now I shine like a boss And fruit like a lot My love Can you even feel it? I can channel rainbows in my hands like chompanyankas I think they might be the same though Roots My love Can you even feel it?

Magic Sho 04:53
White rabbit on April fools Got a habit of breaking the rules From that day he stayed a long time Never went in any top hats Never pulled him up by his ears For audiences to cheer at It's not a secret what I'm about to do Sometimes I believe Six impossible things before If I was time would you handle me deeply If I was time would you handle me Or let me go Don't let me go Wise habits on April fools Got my magic and my tinker tools Far away I had a long climb Better ways of saying stop that Better pull me up by these years for audiences to cheer at It's not a secret what I'm about to do Sometimes I believe Six impossible things before If I was time would you handle me deeply If I was time would you handle me Or let me go Don't let me go If I was time would you Would you handle Would you handle All you ever needed, love Well you can find it in your soul And if you need it now Then kindly ask for it to show itself Revealing how I’m gonna find it in my soul Because I need it now I kinda have to see my growth to get the feeling out I'm gonna find it in my soul Because I need it now kindly askin’ it to show itself Revealing how I’m gonna find it in my soul Because I need it now All you ever needed, love Well you can find it in your soul And if you need it now Then kindly ask for it to show itself Revealing how I’m gonna find it in my soul Because I need it now I kinda have to see my growth to get the feeling out I'm gonna find it in my soul Because I need it now kindly askin’ it to show itself Revealing how I’m gonna find it in my soul Because I need it now There is absolutely no reason to leave before the miracle begins

I’m learning to trust the pull of my feet I’m flying by liberty Empty and full Iridescent and oxidizing Eyes wide Choosing words for these illusions Meeting for the first time again Choosing words for these illusions Meeting for the first time again

We’ve been making packing things down a competitive sport I can fit the place where I sleep in the palm of my hand How heavy is yours? What’s the volume and weight? How long will it take to stop taking up space? Well I feel expansive, boundless All your ties cannot be bound around me All that rises with the sun becomes me People say I talk in my sleep like I’m showing my hand I hold onto a wakening key. I can fly when it lands How heavy is yours? What’s the volume and shape? How long will it take till they take you to space? Well I feel expansive, boundless All your ties cannot be bound around me All that rises with the sun becomes me I am the gift and I am the goal I had my rifts sealed up with gold And I cannot say I did it alone They did it, she did it, he did it, we did it All is abounding All is abounding All is abounding

Facts 03:19
Can I call it a fact yet? You’ve got the file You’ve got the notion If you read it a while …it turns into an ocean of love It really does I know you want permanence here If for only this one thing Running through fingers all down the drain pipe How is it we feel everything? We must be Can I call it a fact yet? You’ve got the file I went walking a mile In my heart fully open …it turned into an ocean of love It really was How is it I feel everything?
