Walk With Jesus

Most of the time I start with chords to match how I'm feeling. I take pride in making my own stuff. This time I found something in Maschine and I felt it. I thought about being surrounded by clowns, and not the kind at the circus. Not sure what I was going through that day, but whenever I play this beat, it reminds me it's Clown Season.

The piano work carries an edge, synths build tension underneath, and the drums hit with that cinematic trap weight. For artists writing about exhaustion with people around them, verses about knowing when to step back, hooks that sit half-spoken and fed up. For a song about recognizing the circus and choosing to leave.

Someone was talking at me, making a lot of noise, and I wasn't paying them any attention. That dismissive, get-out-of-my-way energy is what I built this beat around.

I've lived in Texas for most of my life, and to be honest, wouldn't want to live anywhere else. Yeah, it's hot but it's still Texas and that alone makes this track a winner.
