Not yet. At least I hope not.

“All the signs seem to say love is lost
I don’t wanna give up yet because…”

“Maybe you could stay a bit longer
Or I could try a bit harder
We could make it work”

But maybe we should stop pretending
We both know we’re hurting
Maybe it’s time to go”

I choose option 1 Emeli. But the choice has never really been mine to make. Either way. I’ll be HERE.

“we could make this work…maybe” – Emeli Sande

I have even more music to feed my heart and soul. And just might be my favorite. This UK import is absolutely mesmerizing. I’ll get discouraged by her realist lyrics. And just as well I’ll be encouraged by her words of hope. Her voice is angelic. I believe in love. I hope her music can help guide me when I need it most. If not? At least I REALLY enjoy the album. Which re-releases stateside in early June. June 5th I believe (don’t quote me).

Is it enough?

Let you go
At least I thought so
Now I’m holding on
There’s something there
Always has been
Probably always will be
Is it enough?
That’s the question that needs to be answered
Of course I say YES
And even if you agree
Will you act?
Will you come back?
I say YES
But I live in a fantasy world where my dreams are a possibility
In reality? I’m prepared to fall short and live in purgatory
For this is my dream and I’m determined to live it
The consequences for failure are more than worth it
My scars have shown. The wounds stay open.
They’ll get no deeper.
There’s nothing left to lose

I don’t wanna be your friend

I don’t wanna be your friend
I look over and see that smile.
I melt.
I look into your eyes.
It takes me back to everything I felt
But it’s not in the past
It’s present
You’re in my presence and I can’t help myself
Standing by your side.
Dying slowly
Painfully
I can’t let go there’s too much history.
Loving you is simply misery
Maybe if it was reciprocated I’d be in the heavens
Instead you’ll find me below
A lost soul.

SXSW day 3

Safia was my partner today
Today’s theme was meeting people. People I either know, knew, hadn’t met in person yet or that I’m a huge fan of. Here’s who I remember running into today (there’s more I don’t remember off top):

Coolroy. 9th wonder. TROY AVE. El Prez. Sean Falyon. Shake. Chuuwee. Thurz. KENNA. C-Plus. Jay Rock. Rapper Big Pooh. Picaso. Raven Sorvino. Ali. Ashley Outraegous. Jabee. Safia. Like (pac div). Polyester. Mizzle. Meka. Peas.

Kenna was cool as fuck. He was messing with me at first. Troy Ave showed me MAD LOVE. When he got off staged he looked for me to say what’s up and give me a mixtape. When PacDiv took the stage Like saw me upfront and gave a headnod. LOVE! Everyone been showin me love. Even Thurz shouted me out on stage. Just because. Everyone else was mad friendly.

Who I saw perform:
Thurz. Troy Ave. Pac Div. Coolroy. Ab-Soul. Schoolboy Q. Jay Rock. Kendrick Lamar. The Dream (who I really enjoyed despite the fact I don’t really like his music). El Prez. ShawnChrys. Sean Falyon. And some others I forgot. Another great day!

I shoulda made a normal face when I took that pic wit Kenna. Oh well.
