We’re in the car
Your head ain’t home

You’re driving alone
Light turns red
You Pump up the gas
Then I Beg you to brake
Life is goin too fast
And if I’m being honest
What would I
do if I couldn’t see this to the
end
You were my only friend
It’s kinda hard to forget
It’s kinda Hard to forget
Everything little thing we did
So tell me Some day
The sun will come back out way again
Look in my eyes
And see your soul
I recognize
What you will never show
Let your walls down
And give in to now
Cus you never figured out
How to live without doubt
And if I’m being honest
What would I
do if I couldn’t see this to the
end
Walk away don’t play pretend
It’s kinda hard to forget
It’s kinda
Hard to
forget
Everything little thing we did
So tell me
Some day
The sun will
come back out way again
And if I’m being honest...
Where did you go
I don’t know
So many times
I tried to hit your phone
All your pages
have been read
So tell what’s left unsaid
If I’m being honest
Blue sky’s
always turn to onyx
Gotta keep it real with you
It’s kinda how I move with you

Yea yea

To make use of the rising sun
I don’t wanna see you yawning
You’re always so stuck you never wanna have fun

Calling me up late late last night
And I know that you’ve been running
From yourself and your dreams
Don’t you know what it means
I wanna feel good
All that negativity just throw it away
I wanna feel good
Stop acting like you’ll change you’re always staying the same
I just wanna feel good
You know that you’re the only one that’s taking the blame

Do you wanna feel good
You say you wanna see me that way
Well I don’t think that I can be what you want me to be
You said you saw me looking sideways

Kinda conceited too

Jump

I Jumped off a tree
Hurt my neck, bust my heel
I smoked on some weed
From the rooftop, view was unreal
And I opened up those shut doors
And I let my shit break free
My jagged edge no longer
And my head is getting stronger
(ooh) Can we speak together?
I paid all my dues
Floated through the darkest hues
Watched my reflection morph into the faces I once knew
And i gave all the love that I could give
Introduced myself to passionate
Connections with the spirit of my body
(ooh) Can we speak together?
Show me that little room
Show me those golden hues
Play that six string one more time
Keep me looking to the sky
And we’re just some little kids running through a forest
Wanna run with us?
(ooh) Can we speak together?
We’ve been moving through good weather
Somewhere lifted from the dust of a once upon a time
I’m trying to communicate with the man up in the sky
But we just don’t get it
We just can’t make up our minds
I just jumped off a tree
Hurt my neck, then bust my heel
I smoked on some weed
From the rooftop, the view was unreal
And I opened up those shut doors
And I let my shit break free
Cuz my jagged edge no longer
And my head is getting stronger
Woah

So you think you’ve made it got a new physique and a couple new chains
I guess it’s true when you let go of dead weight you become something new
So I took the time to pick apart the pieces that I gave to you
I guess it's funny my dependency held on to the worst parts (of you)
And I don’t mean to put you down
Never been one to shed blood for the crown
Guess I was just a little jealous of how
You found out how
No I don’t mean to put you down
Never been one to shed blood for the crown
Guess I was just a little jealous of how..
So I wrote a rhyme, a piece of art, dedicate to the one I knew
I guess its shallow, how we never dove in deeper into shades of blue
Now i realize you only ever held me back from seeing the truth
I know you'll never understand cuz you're too busy focusing on you
And I don’t mean to put you down
Never been one to shed blood for the crown
Guess I was just a little jealous of how to love yourself
No I don’t mean to put you down
Never been one to shed blood for the crown
Guess I was just a little jealous of how..
Well shit, honestly honesty might be the hardest thing
Next to loving you and letting you know
That my feelings were real
I had to let them go
I had to pick ‘em, put ‘em down, take control
Well just let me feel everything that I’m in
And I guess we can run, we can find our own way our own way and our own vibe

I shall meet you at Nash Park
Catch you when it’s after dark
Listening to subtle words
Crying from the blackest bird
Poetry ignite my bones
By a man who’s nowhere to go
By a man who has no home
Bite the tongue and swallow
Igniting a flame’s
Harder than maintaining
This fire we’ve created
(Oh oh, oh oh)
And who’s to blame
When only ashes remain
Kiss the smoke as it rains around us (oh)
It’s never what it seems
Never what it seems to be
Nothing is ever what is seems
Never what it seems
Nothing’s what it seems to be
Nothing is ever what is seems
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Watch the clock on your left hand
As zero brings are timely end
You begin to shed your skin
When I decide to let you in
But my words are fickle, true
Like the waves of the ocean blue
<Like the phases of the moon>
And the way I feel ‘bout you

Whoop Raleigh, North Carolina
Only formed in the fall of 2020, North Carolina’s Whoop! has already evolved their weekly barn jams into a hugely relatable, disarmingly charming debut album. Due in September, it’s a record equally organic and tuneful, introspective and celebratory, stylistically diverse yet musically coherent - all connecting through vocalist Fal’s supple and soulful, sweet-but-street timbre. ... more
