about

I'm just in one hell of a bad mood.

lyrics

I watch a channel that just keeps looping.
Reruns with no plot, the theme's confusing.
I learned all these steps,
still don't know the dance.
Everybody's got a program
the remote is in our hands.
Collectively lost interest in self-help.
We want the sorcery performed for free
until the spell's felt.
Tell me I'm better than this.
From a pessimist's lips.
I know I've never been rich.
Shaking a creditor's fist.
I'm always doing things that I don't want to.
The dream's to get clean
from the mud we've been drug through.

(Chorus)
If you want me find me in a bad mood.
All your friends are always in the bathroom.
Stuck inside the cycle, I'm a half moon.
I don't wanna write this but I have to.

I'm carving verses into stone with a chisel.
My legacy is digital and that feels abysmal.
I question my own motivation.
All this content's overrated.
No refunds and no exchanges.
Growth is just so dangerous.
And hope is so outrageous.
I can't fit inside these space.
It's just what I fill my days with.
A symptom of all the stasis.
Been worried bout the future
since before the past was present.
Never had the answers but was born to
ask the questions.
I'm only writing this cause I need the outlet.
Friends turn to fans tell the people
who aren't down yet.
This goes to those that make music
with their mouths.
A toast to the clones that just do it
to get clout.
I see you even though you're see through.
Even the fakest ones eat food
and bleed too.
100k channels and nothing to watch.
The T.V. won't turn off, I just want it to stop.
Don't wanna be a downer.
But I'm not a fan of lies.
Spent too many hours trying to over-analyze.
And I know it's amplified by all this self-reflection.
Where I end up a demon
and you just fell from heaven.
If no one listens to it,
must mean the art's bad.
But most of you are waiting on a heart attack
from a hard pack.
I should start back.
Got a long way to back track.
Accompanied by a laugh track,
and zigzagging black cat.
I turn into Aes Rock
at 8 o' clock.
Incomprehensible rhymes
about how I hate the cops.
I'd stay to talk but don't speak in full sentences.
Tell me how you really feel,
but I know you'll censor it.

(Chorus) x2

about

Happy Tooth Columbus, Ohio

"Both Happy Tooth and BDotJeff spoke to the idea that music can be therapeutic, and writing and recording is now less about reaching a larger audience than steadying the turmoil within. “You do start to question your own motivations, like, why am I doing this?” Happy Tooth said. “And I’ve realized that I love the art, and I have to make it because deep down it makes me feel better.” - MatterNews ... more
