about

"Just To Get By" is our newest rock jam! All 3 singers are featured on this album closer, which ends in a spectacular display of guitar solos.

"Rising Sun Gang" was recorded by Gary Nieves Jr at Cobra Sun Studio in Staten Island, New York. Tracks were cut to 1/2" 8 channel tape, and then mixed in a hybrid analog/digital fashion, using a 1/4" stereo machine and the latest recording software.

lyrics

"Just To Get By" (Nenjah Nycist, A. Smith, M. Costello)


Young thinking im grown
Where i lay the snapback be my home
fuck it im in my zone
Let me light the spliff and write some shit
maybe about loyalty and righteousness
But the likeliness of that is unknown 'cause I be on the roam
a saint sinnin' tryna find my own
that motherfucking kid wit the hoody on his dome
wrecking for respect i aint gotta do the shit alone
Rising Sun, Rising Sun

{Chorus}



You get up with some searing interest
Not trying to "beat the man"
You need one night, brown liquor
You're the champion of the guttural
But what do you do when your days are numbered, just lost looks in a crowded bar? You need fist fights and fast women, handing meaning to suffering.
