Sat 6/7 TURNING TIDES FESTIVAL : London

As soon as I got off the plane I could feel the different smells of people and mannerisms. Here we go again, am I ready?You got to be ready for the unfamiliarity of the city. You have to just soak it up and go to your hotel and let it happen. Breath in the air, eat, dial in.

So this morning I decided to work out. They have a pretty decent gym here and I told my boyfriend that I wanted to use this tour as a way to level up and just get fit mentally/physically. It was nice a rode that bike thing and biked for 6 miles, did some weight lifting and crutches. I want a 6 pack. I’ve had those starter lines for like years and want to see them pop out. Lol.

Im also ready this book called “the art of not giving a fuck.”

My dad told me to read it he said, “Britt, I know you already on this wave but you got to read this, I know it’s hard for you to sit down and not do nothing but it’s good for you.” Slightly offendeddd you know.... that he knows that about me but I took the challenge and got the book and read half way through it on the plane. It’s aite.....

Opening up for Mulatu Astatke. That’s super tight, you should check out his music. Pretty much a legend.

Can’t even believe I’m on tour opening for legends. Or that I’m starting to feel like I have a home, have healthy relationships. Life is good. Just trying to keep my mind busy on this tour so I’ll hit y’all back.

orange blossom tree

if i could walk out the door and lead you to a true version of myself i would

sometimes its hard to find her

but we always find the orange blossom tree and obviously that isn’t me

I’m human

growing

trying to survive the insects and birds

feeding off me

and as you cherish the moment

i saw you

like the rabbits feeding off the oranges

i tasted you

so dont let the birds steal your melodic moment

this song is ours and today the birds wont whistle

I made this song about 3 years ago. It’s about being letting a love go and hoping they understand because you are happy.

Hi I’m writing to you to bring awareness to you. 

I am in a house and sitting in a chair. My thoughts are mine and your thoughts are you. I am accepting that time is something that is real, sometimes not real and hope you can relate. Today is a hot one. Oatmeal can be anything you want and you will never know my true meaning but hopefully, one can replace it with a world dear to you, something unforced.
