about

"An obvious sense of drama pervades recent Scott Collins single "Headlights". Big, climactic piano chords brace an untold tragedy, hinted at through the singer-songwriter's clearcutting falsetto: "Jenny cried when the phone call came last night/ And the kids on the corner gonna run and hide." That pure pop hook sets the table for Auston hip-hop mainstay Kydd Jones to step into the spotlight and deliver 16 perfectly worded bars that deepen the narrative with contemplations, descriptions, and vignettes. A pop-rap earworm that understands proper storytelling leaves room for imagination."
- Kevin Curtin, The Austin Chronicle


PROCEEDS FROM EACH SALE DONATED TO DAWA:

DAWA - Diversity Awareness and Wellness in Action. Based in Austin, TX.

DAWA means 'medicine' in Swahili. We believe that medicine encompasses more than just pills. We believe medicine can also be meeting people with practical, immediate resources that can bridge the gap when they are in crisis.



DAWA is a safety net for people of color who are experiencing short term life crisis. More specifically, people of color who are: musicians, artists, social workers, teachers, healing practitioners, and service industry workers.

These are the people who GIVE to others/serve day in and day out for a living, and are often at the highest risk for mental health crisis. In 2020, this client base will be able to apply for funds to help with emergency financial needs.

lyrics

CHORUS:

Jenny cried when the phone call came last night 
And the kids on the corner gonna run and hide 
Johnny's comin' home with a bottle tonight 
And he's lost in the oncoming headlights

VERSE:

Thought that was you at the red light
Heavy on my heart
A mess right 
Working know you aint' the desk type
You a high end model s type 
Dive in I got the moon shine 
Let's watch the moon shine 
Or what’s left right
Know sometimes more is less right 
I've been less right but I confessed right 
Protect your heart from being chastised 
Jenny please no more wet eyes
Johnny walker by the bed side 
Take the edge off don’t push me close to the edge side
Slow motion over that edge right
Ocean view for a whole sec right 
Were those heaven lights or those headlights awww
