Influenced by Al Green, Bill Withers, D'Angelo, Compas direct artists like Tabou Combo, Ann Peebles. Al Greene's voice was born in the quiet spaces between Port-au-Prince and Memphis. He spent his first thirteen years in Tennessee as an undocumented child, learning to be invisible, a lesson that shaped his soulful, watchful music. He found his own language in the grooves of Al Green records and the logic of the gardens he now tends for a living. His songs, written on a treasured hollow-body guitar in a small house in South Memphis, are about the difficult, beautiful work of putting down roots in a world that can feel like borrowed soil.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The box of Luzianne is sweating on the counter top
Your spoon makes a tiny silver circle and it doesn't stop
The August air is thick enough to hold
The hum of the window fan is getting old
But you look beautiful under this light
Everything feels right.

[Pre-Chorus]
And in this quiet, I swear I feel a taproot finding purchase
Like we're finally good soil, finally worth the surface

[Chorus]
This is a quiet room
But you are not speaking in it
This is a quiet room
And we are just leaving in it

[Verse 2]
I trace the condensation ring your glass just made
Remember last Tuesday, that gentle thing you said
"Don't move that orchid to the bigger pot yet"
And I heard patience, didn't hear the warning yet
I just saw green leaves thriving on the sill
Standing perfectly still.

[Pre-Chorus]
And in this quiet, I swear I feel a taproot finding purchase
Like we're finally good soil, finally worth the surface

[Chorus]
This is a quiet room
But you are not speaking in it
This is a quiet room
And we are just leaving in it

[Bridge]
I learned to read the weather in a face
A sudden frost, a different kind of space
This isn't blight, it wasn't wrong
Just a cutting that's been sitting in the water for too long.

[Outro]
The sugar's melted now.
You haven't looked up.
