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]
One half-smoked pack of Virginia Slims
beside the key for a door in East Nashville.
A dried-out okra pod, brittle at the stem,
and two ticket stubs for a show at the Ryman, still.

[Chorus]
This drawer's got everything but you.
A whole lotta nothing to see me through.

[Verse 2]
A single apostle spoon, Saint Peter, I think.
The little clay bird with a chip on its beak.
“Keep this safe,” you said, “'til the ground thaws out.”
That was the last good rain of the week.

[Chorus]
This drawer's got everything but you.
A whole lotta nothing to see me through.

[Bridge]
They say you can't graft a rose on a thistle.
Can't pray for a crop in soil this brittle.

[Outro]
This spool of copper wire I keep unwindin’,
for a connection I’m no longer findin’.
