Mother F**ker

June 24, 2006 By Graham English

Warning: Explicit lyrics. I wrote this years ago. Probably between 1998 and 2000. I could nail it down but I don't really care that much. It's a smooth laid back rap by me with a guitar solo from David Gelfand. But what really gets me is Brian Sach's … [Read more...]

Gone, Gone, Gone

March 11, 2006 By Graham English

Reasons

March 11, 2006 By Graham English
