lyrics

Born into a family, adorned before they damned me down
I'd talk if they would listen to all the things they're missing, now
It gets hard out here alone
Lord, if I'd have known
Calm as a sea breeze, Mom, if you could see me now

Dancing for a dollar, man, if I just called her name
Gone in the morning, but company all the same
It gets hard out here alone
Lord If I'd have known
I'd have been better, instead of what I became

It gets hard out here
It gets hard out here

Praying to the Maker, maybe She will take her time
Cope with what I'm facing, hoping there's no place in line
It gets hard in here alone
Lord if I'd have known
I'd have tried to live it, done my best to make it mine

It gets hard out here
It gets hard out here
It gets hard out here
It gets hard out here

Depreciated

Another solid effort start to finish. Very much a life lesson storytelling lyricist. To me still is very similar to James McMurtry which is not a bad thing. Looks like another album is dropping soon. That’s good news. Yimmy Kil

Fortune Favors the Bold

Such a soulful voice that aches with heartache. This band is blowing up nationwide right now. What’s nice is yes this is their most polished and technical album but actually all 4 are amazing. Isaac Gibson also has an amazing band of crazy talented musicians backing that epic vocal sound. Buy their stuff and support this band. Do it do it. Yimmy Kil
