"Mess" is the fourth song that I've worked on with AVLI Music, a music producer based in Reseda, CA.

Lyrics: Verse 1: My phone rings a lot 'cause I'm a slut, you say it's 'cause I'm Mr. Popular when in reality you know what's up, but thanks for the muthafuckin' compliment. We used to smoke 'dro and sip Burnett's, hangin' out in Mashpee with Seth and Red, party didn't stop 'til 6 a.m. and I didn't know what to do. Believe me, I've seen it all before, passed out on your bedroom floor, my feet brushing up against the bathroom door, until the morning.

Chorus: I'm a mess, I'm a mess So quick to give up everything I'm a mess, I'm a mess in all the common thread is me I'm a mess, I'm a mess but we're still making memories I'm a mess, I'm a mess but you've still got my loyalty

Verse 2: Woke to find that my glasses broke, I guess somehow I must've sat on them. Went to the fridge to get a glass of Coke, and then I see your mother staring back at me. We were only young, somehow my heart can't understand that, no baby.

Chorus: I'm a mess, I'm a mess So quick to give up everything I'm a mess, I'm a mess in all the common thread is me I'm a mess, I'm a mess but we're still making memories I'm a mess, I'm a mess but you've still got my loyalty

Bridge: The nights aren't long enough with you, I wanna stay in our cocoon, the cozy darkness beckons me, feel passion unexpectedly. The nights aren't long enough with you, I wanna stay in our cocoon. Cause I wanna spend the morning with you too, Now tell me what you wanna do

Chorus: I'm a mess, I'm a mess So quick to give up everything I'm a mess, I'm a mess in all the common thread is me I'm a mess, I'm a mess but we're still making memories I'm a mess, I'm a mess but you've still got my loyalty I'm a mess, I'm a mess So quick to give up everything I'm a mess, I'm a mess in all the common thread is me I'm a mess, I'm a mess but we're still making memories I'm a mess, I'm a mess but you've still got my loyalty

This is my self-titled EP containing seven tracks I worked on with AVLI Music, a music producer based in Reseda, CA, who I met in 2015 at the ASCAP I Create Music EXPO at the Loew's Hollywood Hotel in Los Angeles, CA. There are also musical and lyrical contributions from Jordan Siwek and Maryland upcoming rapper Questt. Creating this EP has been a labor of love and I'm so happy to see it finally come to fruition after almost four years. The EP is a raw emotional journey through personal songs, vibey tracks and danceable midtempos. It was mastered by Erick Labson at United Recording Studios in Los Angeles, CA.
