GUILTY

Your boys met me at the gates

Dangled keys and hazed

with promised fates.

I wish I could unknow what it's like to have my body made a battlefield.

They paid until I owed,

felt so trapped

like I'd been bought and sold.

While they played power games, got stoned,

I blamed myself and forgot who was in control.

I've walked too deep inside a man's world,

Lost my strength

Forgotten what I came for

And I know I'm not the first,

that you've made defend her word.

When I refuse to be coerced,

somehow I'm subversive?

I'll take the blacklist, I'll do time

but I'm not guilty.

So why do I feel guilty?

As the gavel pounds,

touch my navel and I know deep down:

came all this way to see the shape your silhouette makes

when you turn from me.

I've walked too deep inside a man's world,

Lost my strength

Forgotten what I came for

And I know I'm not the first,

that you've made defend her word.

When I refuse to be coerced,

somehow I'm subversive?

I'll take the blacklist, I'll do time

but I'm not guilty.

So why do I feel guilty?

Can I forgive myself, for myself? Too heavy to carry.

New song out today --  GUILTY --

If you have seen me perform in the last 6 months, you’ve probably heard me talk about this song, because it’s one that is deeply personal and important to me.  I composed "Guilty" in October 2016, in London – it was the final song that I wrote for my upcoming record, and that wasn’t a coincidence. I waited until the last minute (we were going into production three days later) because of the resistance, fear, and overall heaviness that I faced within myself when considering putting words to an experience that had left me feeling, quite honestly, voiceless.

Of course, this was all before the #metoo activation began. Time has been both cruel and kind in showing me that I am not alone in my experience. It’s so hard to speak up sometimes.

R&B artist Son Little (aka Aaron Livingston) has shared the video for “Toes,” the title track from last year’s debut album. In the video, Livingston plays to a steadily filling club while another version of himself explores the club as a patron. It was directed by Kat Coiro at Bar Lubitsch in Los Angeles, and stars Rhys Coiro (“24,” “Entourage”) and Joe Liaye (“Loiter Squad”). Watch it below. Son Little is also currently on tour, including dates opening for acts like Leon Bridges, Dr. Dog, and Shakey Graves. You can find his schedule below, too. Toes is out now via Anti-.
