She’s walking down the fire escape;
She’s so light, she’s the tiniest leaf
And he’s at the bottom waiting to say “Love, we’re late” It’s the way she sings.
Meanwhile I’m cleaning out the drawers, Wondering if it’s “Love” that’s breeding
Twist ties and fruit stickers, silent ritual killers It’s these little things
Sand in our pockets
It’s stones in our shoes
It’s coffee and bread crumbs, and Trying not to wake you- wake you
It’s been a year, and I’ve arranged myself Into piles and wooden frames
Wishing for a moment free,
A moment so easy as the spring
Lifting my hands off handle bars,
Waiting for the fear, the catch, the scars
I know it’s coming on, proof my grace is gone; It’s these little things.
We’re already buried,
We noticed them to late
It’s creaks in the floorboards, and Chips in the paint, chips in the paint
What’s to become of us?
The word, the heart, the ring?
No memory of all these little things?
It's squeezing from the bottom
Wasting all our time
winning eery battle by saying "never mind"
Oh, never mind
Never mind these little things
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
