Will people be uncomfortable with dark lyrics about a poor kid who grew up in a violent dysfunctional family. Perhaps with some words only common to east Texas. For example pulp wood (the wood paper is made from) is call "pup wood" by people living in east Texas. "The quarters" is a common name for a area black people were forced to live in during segregation in the small towns of the Jim Crow south.

Black lives have always mattered to me as much as anyone's life. I wanted to produce a song that addressed some of these issues as I saw and lived through them. Not so much to promote any certain cause but to depict the stark reality and conditions of the early 1950's both for poor black and poor white people.

Perhaps this is the right time for such a song, perhaps not.

Feedback?
