Potential In the Air
---------------------
Got kicked outta the rits
the fuck is this anxiety shit?
i’ll never believe the stovetop is hot unless I touch it.
got burned by the big man so I don’t make him much time.
lotta people prayin’ to that dude,
i’m prayin’ for a sugar momma who’s into bearded guys.
even if it’s true that I ain’t always in the mood.
i'm out of touch, outta luck, outta every kinda fuck.
don’t regret nothin until i find myself stuck.
but i’m roamin, jones’in, all around the living room.
ain’t growin’, i’m snowed in, middle of fuckin’ june.
tear a piece of dried up meat, bite, chew, consume.
emo or a party song? between does lie the truth.
only good thing that came from us, is now i know to avoid folks like you.
humans once thought we couldn’t make it to the moon
humans once thought we couldn’t take the ocean in a fight
i don’t see myself fuckin’ off too far
but if i’m lucky i’ll be hangin’ with the woman on my mind tonight.

keep your hipster bitch, rich ass friends.
I’ll keep kickin' it with all the real ones.
we might be rats on a sinkin’ ship
but when it hits the fan, you’ll be the first who’s made a meal of.
sometimes someone really wants you to know
just how much they don’t care.
only thing that keeps us from being apes is art.
unaware of our potential, though potential’s in the air.
a fine line between dwelling and forgetting the past.
friends, fam, & fuckups. only one of which can last.
i guess i’m just hopin’ you’ll hang onto what's good.
don’t live inside the bottle. don’t forget their stupid laugh.
humans once thought we couldn’t make it to the moon
humans once thought we couldn’t take the ocean in a fight
i don’t see myself fuckin’ off too far
but if i’m lucky i’ll be hangin’ with the woman on my mind tonight.
A look back at the late Bert Jansch's 1985 classic, "From The Outside," an album that bridges the gap between his native Scotland and the Americana his music invokes. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jun 14, 2016
The British-Somali poet draws upon everything from leftfield folk to minimalist spoken-word, bound together by simple-yet-cutting wordplay. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 28, 2021
