Untitled 03:01
I've been so low Low Life moves so slow Oh I'm never in control No, though I want it They think they know Everywhere I go I'll never be alone Never on my own (Where I, where I, where I, where I go) I'll never be alone Never on my own I've been so low Low Life moves so slow Oh I'm never in control You wanna define equal? I was down, so I mistreat people Get your head straight, ethos At a downtown bistro Had a TV meal though Had a launchpad, cheat code Your car for the SOS You drive, but I know what's best Too tired, I can tell by the look in your eyes That you hate when I ask what's next Blue eyes, never know your stress Too young, never know what's left, huh I'll never be alone Never on my own (Never on my, never on my)

My locket’s empty My faulty memory No time to pretend Inside all weekend I'll dream while we can (can) Before I hit a dead end (end) Further than I ever thought At every single cost It hurts me but I don't stop Further than I ever thought (I'm moving cheddar babe!) (I'm seeing better days) And I'm moving any way Any way I want (It hurts me) Can't stop My locket’s empty My faulty memory No time to pretend Inside all weekend I'll dream while we can (can) Before I hit a dead end (end) My locket’s empty My faulty memory No time to pretend Inside all weekend I'll dream while we can (Can) (Before I hit a dead end) (End) I’ve been waiting for an island meditation Seeking, saving myself But it isn’t in my cards I’ll keep paying for my faults 'Til the day I die Unless I own up To the way I like to settle And the way I don’t try getting along With the world and all it’s beautiful eyes So I swear I’m gonna give it my all

Try to live alone I keep having dreams Call an empty phone It's got a hold on me I’m better off alone Don't wanna live a lie No place no home I keep wasting time I never look back at the old days 'Cus I was only coping the whole way And I'm never going back for my own sake Always walk away from a heartache I never look back at the old days 'Cus I was only coping the whole way And I'm never going back for my own sake Always walk away from a heartache Can't lift the weight When you change on me But desire calls my name Desire calls my name But I don't hear you anymore I changed Desire seems so fake I don't hear you in the rain Maybe I'm not wrong 'Cus lately I've been fine So I'm waking up Nothing on my mind And we think that love Makes us complete Looking through you Looking through me (Again, again!) I never look back at the old days 'Cus I was only coping the whole way And I'm never going back for my own sake Always walk away from a heartache I never look back at the old days 'Cus I was only coping the whole way And I'm never going back for my own sake Always walk away from a heartache

You're the cigarette smoke in my bed at night Bedroom bags underneath my eyes Carcinogen hit got me feeling high And the cinnamon tips keep me up at night Telephone chord ring my neck so tight Durries and trees come and test my might And I know you I atone you I walk alone too Hallway to your bedroom Still waiting by the line For you to call Been waiting all this time Don't hear at all But now that I'm sick and tired Wish I never hit that dial Baby it's been a while since you been gone You're the cigarette smoke in my bed at night Bedroom bags underneath my eyes Carcinogen hit got me feeling high And the cinnamon tips keep me up at night Telephone chord ring my neck so tight Durries and trees come and test my might And I know you I atone you I walk alone too Hallway to your bedroom (The cinnamon tips keep me up at night) Durries and trees come and test my might (Carcinogen hit got me feeling high)

Shadow 02:54
I can tell it by the way that she hold me How she's talkin’ I can tell that she's lonely No fake love No fake love And we're both the same You scream my name But I don't know yours But I'll ask again If you hesitate Then I'm not yours I can be your shadow (You don't want that) I can be your shadow I can be your shadow (I've already been that) I can be your shadow I can be your shadow I can be your shadow I can be your shadow

HURTING 03:38
(Wake up, get up, wake up!) Here is this The last train that I'll miss I’m walking home I feel alone She only call me out if she call my phone Big shoes to fill Maybe later I’m a failure Custom tailor All day long Sing my songs Momma's stare, nobody there My father's violence My teacher's silence And I pull my hair Doctor's care I guess life ain't fair (I know these things are changing with us) Here is my Last shot at the light Tidal wave Drown in pain Mistrust the love of my life Too high to cry One tear at a time Kerri's there Momma's stare My father's violence My teacher's silence And I pull my hair I say life ain't fair I'm not enough (When I see your face) (Oh these things are changing with us) All that I love All that I love (Pull my hair) Now she tryna get low And I got more tracks than a metro (haha) Hold right there Hold my prayer On the stairs tryna let go Everybody's hurting oh I know Everybody's worth it oh I know Everybody wants things they see They see (I did) I thought that I deserve it Maybe I don't Try to get the words out Baby I choke Everybody wants things they need They need (They need) (Everybody's hurt) (Everybody's hurt) (Hurting) (Everybody's hurt) (Something keeps happening outside) (What would you even say? Huh?) (What would you even say to that?) (Just can't shake the feeling) (That is exactly what I'm talking about) (That is exactly what I am talking about)

about

This EP is a powerful reminder to learn from the pain you've experienced, not dwell in it. kerri paints the picture of someone afraid of the world and angry at themselves who learns over the course of these songs to have faith. Although most of the songs are uplifting, the stunning closer is one last look back at the loneliest corner of someone's mind before choosing a life of clarity. Each song on the project was made in intimate spaces, from a cafe in Toronto to kerri's own bedroom, with people he trusts.
