“Wet Cement” is about the push and pull, back and forth, and uncertainty of...
[Verse 1]
Sunrise tearing down the old
In a moment's time, all is set in stone
Sometimes I like to run the road
Though the light moves fast, I still race it home
High noon sheds a new physique
What once was for you, for everyone to see
I knew I should've let it sit and steep
A smooth taste corrupted by the heat
[Chorus]
No, I don't talk nice, talk sweet
I let my heart bleed
Cold nights, cold feet
When I'm on a hot streak
Tall ask, tall feat
To give you all of me
05/23
Etched in the concrete
[Verse 2]
Sunset ripping through the mold
In a moment's time, it's time to let me go
Someone is betting on my soul
The key no longer fits the hole
[Chorus]
No, I don't talk nice, talk sweet
I let my heart bleed
Cold nights, cold feet
When I'm on a hot streak
Tall ask, tall feat
To give you all of me
05/23
Etched in the concrete
[Post-Chorus]
Back when it was wet cement
We were oh-so sure of it
Why would I stop to think it twice?
Back when it was wet cement
Pressed against our fingertips
Why would I wait for it to dry?
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
No, I don't talk nice, talk sweet
I let my heart bleed
Cold nights, cold feet
When I'm on a hot streak
Tall ask, tall feat
To give you all of me
05/23
Etched in the concrete
[Post-Chorus]
Back when it was wet cement
We were oh-so sure of it
Why would I stop to think it twice?
Back when it was wet cement
Pressed against our fingertips
Why would I wait for it to dry?

“Wet Cement” is finally out. I’m so thrilled and nervous to share it with you all. It’s been over two years since releasing original music of my own, making it my longest stretch to date. Like so many, I was truly uninspired through covid. I sat around waiting for inspiration to hit and at times I t...
