about

decided to re-record this track to have something to let everyone know I'm still here making music. this is an old song of mine that I wanted to re-record and collaborate with a friend on for a small update. my friend Saqeef Ali rocked the mixing and effects on these tracks that I recorded from my parent's home up at Lake Bella Vista in Michigan, where I originally wrote this song, and where I am currently riding out this stay-at-home order.

also because bandcamp is giving 100% to artists on the 1st friday of every month for the next three months (on friday may 1st, June 5th, and July 3rd), anything I earn from this song on those days will be donated to Hope For The Day (www.hftd.org), an organization that is dedicated to suicide prevention and education. they're doing important work in these trying times, and it's always good to be reminded that it's ok to be not ok.

special thanks again to Saqeef for mixing this track, and enjoy this updated version of one of my favorite songs that I've ever written.

lyrics

sitting on a boat in the bay
waiting for the world to be ok
other boats pass by all the time
none who stop to listen to my rhyme

all the while the waves just rock me slow

anchor isn't keeping me down
waves are pushing me around and round
fishermen, they take what they can
selfish is the fatal flaw of man

all the while the waves just rock me slow
all the while the waves just rock me slow

waiting for the sun to go down
in the dark i will not be found
drifting away to the sound
listening to what comes out of this fucking dirty mouth

all the while the waves just rock me slow
all the while the waves just rock me slow
