A song reminds what it is to breathe
Drifting on your words into the street
Your touch electric in the cold- I know
Bowing heads to tiny screens of light,
I feel you draining from me
All this screen time's got the space between us feeling overgrown
I know, I know
I know it's obsolete
but I wish you had an answering machine
you could go on home and find me
play me and rewind me, over and over again
If I could be right or wrong
might call you on the phone
send you a mixtape, or I might let my heart break
if I could be right or wrong,
I might let you hang around,
my kitchen is for dancing
I know it's obsolete
but I wish you had an answering machine
you could go on home and find me
play me and rewind me, over and over again
and I know it's out of time,
but I wish that I had yours and you had mine,
you could go on home and find me,
play me and rewind me, over and over again
Measure my days in anticipation of when I'd see you again
What I wouldn't give for, another hour to live for
the possibility of you
I know it's obsolete
but I wish you had an answering machine
you could go on home and find me
play me and rewind me, over and over again
and I know it's out of time,
but I wish that I had yours and you had mine,
you could go on home and find me,
play me and rewind me, over and over again
Tasty. Literally a malt for your soul. Drenched in cool. I am here for the way her honeyed vocals and rich harmonies go down easy. Don't sleep. No Money In My Pocket / I got the love. Samantha Rise
Unreal, unapologetic, unstoppable. Her incredible flow, full of quirks and slickness, & amazing production feel to me a muscle building a new realm of hip-hop on the front of the black feminist wave. Samantha Rise
These songs are my everything ,and Esme Patterson is a dreamboat. Presence, purpose, openess and a frank loveliness, floating. I could drive to Philly form WY and back again this record. Samantha Rise

Excellent soundscapes and mood...reminds me of the Song Drapes of Jerry Hunt but from different influences. Mesmerizing and inspirational simultaneously. Favorite Track: LETTERS FROM EARTH. BeagleBay

I was grabbed immediately by the first track, "Good Luck Rd." - I wish I'd had this album in college. I'd probably have some of these lyrics tattooed somewhere... Joe Brockmeier
