Sweetmeat 03:57
You’re a hungry grey wolf stalking I can feel your breath on me You can see me stumble walking Know you want me for your meat. I hear the breaking of twigs I know you’ll soon do me in Feast on the sweetmeat of my feelings Don’t you choke on my broken heart I can see the vultures circling And the sky won’t bring me rain Dust inside my chest is hurting Every second brings me pain Black halo over my head. Know that I’ll fight till I’m dead. Feast on the sweetmeat of my feelings Don’t you choke on my broken heart

Tell my son I’ll soon be home Tell my girl that I can’t live alone Many months I’ve been away When I get back I’ll be back home to stay Like a thousand stallions Running home Ain’t gonna stop For wind or rain or snow Snows keep drifting in my eyes Been too long from tears to goodbyes Food and love and lots to say Ride this night to bright sparks of day Like a thousand stallions Running home Ain’t gonna stop For wind or rain or snow Searching for gold far away from home Riches don’t make you feel alone Read from the good book every day I ask for the master to show me the way Like a thousand stallions Running home Ain’t gonna stop For wind or rain or snow

Born in a dust bowl Wrapped in sand and grit Hungry and angry That he lived the life he lived His mama died screaming As they closed her coffin lid His father was diving Down a bottle of gin But then without a warning A neighbor tried to whore him With no one left to watch him Grabbed daddy’s gun and shot him When Billy Was A Kid He made the whole world Bend towards his will Made sure everyone Would suffer like he did Rode into town and killed Who he had to kill As they lay dying He’d ride off with a grin But then without a warning A sheriff aimed and shot him The whole town stood and watched him And said at last we got him. When Billy Was a Kid

about

BEATING DRUM presents HEAR MY VOICE in a new collection of recordings produced by Piers Faccini and released in limited edition 12” vinyl, Beating Drum aims to carry the torch for an eclectic and innovative 21st century form of songwriting. Behind every beautiful song lies an original story and with this new series, the label aims to champion the cause of some of today’s exciting new voices.
For Hear My Voice, the label aims to give a platform to a select group of new and exciting artists the label encounters. Each Ep, beautifully conceived by house designer Uncle O will feature a portrait of the artist drawn by Piers Faccini. The first releases will feature three distinct voices, Tui Mamaki, Gnut and Horsedreamer.

HORSEDREAMER is the voice of the aclaimed UK based Trinidadian poet and singer Roger Robinson. In this incarnation, the prolific artist and singer, known also for fronting the cult band King Midas Sound, puts words and voice to compositions by Piers Faccini. Horsedreamer is their conversation and the story of their ancestral roaming. This is their second ep for the label.
This ep of new songs champions the anti hero and draws parallels with radical survival in the present political and economic climate. Taking its influences from Narcocorridos and outlaw country as well as far western folklore, the ep forges a new subgenre that Horsedreamers today call gangsta folk.
