Vagrants (single)

by Hebdo

/

about

A laid back but complicated personal and social conversation piece. Struggle lies just beneath the sand. Part quarantine part hope part adventure.
.
Couldn't have done it without so many talented hearts

One of the earliest tracks to come to me during the quarantine, but caused quite the creative commotion within the studio. We worked hard for the right feel and once it all came together it felt like no time had passed at all. How bout that.

lyrics

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ya make me feel like I was born to SHAKE
Holy water fallin out the cup and onto the floor
Ya dug your way into my beatin' heart
Ya came here lookin for a shelter but you found a storm Alright …..Cut me loose…. Alright

Ya make me feel like I was born to BUILD
Stomp my sole into the shovel raise the dust and the smoke
I’ve always been a man of big ideas
Still fittin in to my own skin and holdin out the notes…..
Let me know, How did you get from here to there

Where’d ya go?
Don’t keep me waitin'
Took me too far - too much to lose

You make me feel like I was born to FIGHT,
Cut me loose I’m supersonic now it’s time to react

We can be vagrants, (I know this)
And we can be vacant (like always)
And we can be vanquished (long gone)
Ooooor we could be vaguely (alarmed)

We can be taken, (by moments)
And we can be pagan’s (left homeless)
And we could be hazed out (and blown)
Won’t be afraid no !

You make me feel like I was born to LIVE
Sometimes I get so open hearted run the risk of attack
Tied tgthr by a million years
Cut me loose from busy livin bring the balance back

And we can be patrons (unnoticed)
And we can be patient (& lawless)
And we can be grateful (and gone) nah nah nah
Won’t be afraid no ! of gawd

about

Hebdo Columbus, Ohio

Hebdo is an artist caught between two worlds. You’d sooner find his brand of indie rock-meets-vintage Americana grit emanating from a porch in Austin, Texas than his hometown of Columbus, Ohio.

Hebdo’s defiance of simple categorization is perhaps best exemplified in the concoction of his own genre, dubbed “Adventure-Folk”.
