Can you feel me coming home? I can hear it in your laughter Loving you proved me wrong Love can last me through disaster Hurricane, earthquake, firestorm, hailstone I can feel you even stronger Easy loving, coming home I’ve been here before But I… I never knew I’ve taken some hearts And I… I’ve shard a few Start taking my stops and I’ll stare at you I’ve been here before But I… I never knew

Roger Eason, come to the principal's office Oh, if it's good to be bad Take what I did, if I had I don't know how it could be 17 years on the scene But damn it feels good to be back Take a friend, take a hand Take a cab But I did it And I had a good time Take a good look at my best friends now Nobody feels like you do Oh but they feel l do There are no better friends to compare you Damn it feels good to back Round the fear that I had From a year on my phone in the mess Where I laid in the bed to myself Oh but isn't me Oh but it isn't you To be alone for more than an hour or two You'll always have a seat in my room I'll admit, you had it bad I don't hear anybody talking I don't feel bad about that I don't feel bad about that I don't feel bad about that day When I punched him in, punched him out of phase And if he don't know me now then he's coming For revenge of a friend that we lost Damn it feels good to back Round the fear that I had From a year on my phone in the mess Where I laid in the bed to myself Oh but isn't me Oh but it isn't you To be alone for more than an hour or two You'll always have a seat in my room Hey, throw that fear already Go see, throw it at friends already To show me back in To show me back in

Yeah Nothing bad,nothing good Can ever take our leave It's all even up in even up in evening up in life Oh If you have me If I have you Will it mean our time is well spent? Even up in even up in evening up in life If I delight the quotient Divide or multiply But if you have me denied Then we will ever be anything but multiplied Heavy morning Heavy evening I want to feel good someway It'll never get better if I Never realize the time we've passed If I delight the quotient Divide or multiply But if you have me denied Then we will ever be anything but multiplied Nothing bad,nothing good Can ever take our leave It's all even up in even up in evening up in life

Instead of talking about it Gravity hurts, living gets worse Instead of talking about it Gravity hurts, living in pain Instead of talking about it Tragedy lurks, drizzling rain Instead of talking about it Gravity hurts, living in vain So what is this for I'm leaving alone I love you the same No taking it back I know what I said It didnt feel good This is our song Love me better off now that I'm gone I've been living far away for a while I say I don't want to feel that way again Instead of talking about it, gravity hurts, living gets worse Instead of, Instead of...

There's a creek out your window Rusty slide and swing set It's the spot you'd always look when you're alone When you mommaw headed out, By the streams mouth I'd stand Hoping you would look over and call Go, now we were teenage A rage, a phase, a page, a race By this time you'd finally noticed my eyes On the weekends I'd stare, always hoping you were sad So I could steal one good smile from your face Don't forget who you call, girl Don't forget who you call Don't forget who you call when you're alone Now by this time, we're troubled Always patching up doors If you screamed out murder I'd have to look at my own hands first Alas, I've been thinking, I'd better raise up my glass I thank you, I'll be waiting by the wind gauge again Sometimes I'm moody, Sometimes you're just too blunt If I'm crazy, why're standing, waiting for the next stunt But we're past, always thinking, There's one climax and fall There's a page, i haven't read yet, Hundreds more we haven't wrote

Didn't know it from the start but I was waiting here Waiting to hear myself ask questions I thought I'd never ask before Didn't know it from the dreams But I was waiting to find Waiting to make that shape of a creature It might take all I've got Love is always on your mind I didn't have mine This won't ever happen to anybody else Not to anybody else? Think again Stays and goes I didnt know it from the start But nobody's waiting on me Waiting on me to figure out what it's all about and report back to them Love is always on your mind I didn't have mine This won't ever happen to anybody else Not to anybody else? Think again Stays and goes

about

Stray2Feral is a nostalgic audio journal built from impressionistic, raw songs that move between bedroom-folk warmth, electronic textures, and soft pop structures. The lyrics are not always literal, but they are deeply personal, shaped by fragmented images and shifting emotions.

The album gathers fragments of my life across the 2010s and 20s, including my time in Haiti and the years that followed in the Southeast United States. Living through a disaster, and witnessing the long-term damage left by imperialism, changed my trajectory and sent me into a prolonged period of collapse and reflection. Climbing out of that space slowly reshaped how I understand the world, the people in it, and myself.

Stray2Feral documents internal change alongside external crises, tracing a path toward freer thought and a growing belief in valuing human need over accumulation. This political and ethical awakening is present throughout the album, but it is only one strand within a broader emotional and creative landscape.

The album’s loose central metaphor comes from cats. Moving from stray to feral. Inspired by our three feline companions, GJ, Kitts, and Diddy, the record reflects the tension between solitude and belonging, instinct and structure, individuality and community. Cats occupy a strange cultural space as symbols of independence, tenderness, and collective care, and that balance mirrors the emotional arc of the album.

Musically, the songs lean on vocoder harmonies, acoustic fragments, and layered electronic rhythms that grow naturally over time rather than following rigid plans. Some tracks feel intimate and grounded, while others carry a subtle electronic lift that pushes them forward.

Together, the songs form a small living archive of where I have been emotionally, politically, and artistically. That ongoing movement, from isolation toward connection, is what I call Stray2Feral.
