Hey hey, we're drowning in the deep shit. There's no escape. There's no getting over it.

Ain't nobody watching. So I'm drinking all the Kool Aid.
3.
I still love my biscuits and my grandma's jam. Southern pride and sweet iced tea help me to get by. And I'll fight their racist shit until the day I die
4.
It's Alright 02:38
I miss my friends, who've gone away. I don't ask why. They've got nothing to say.

RBG's biggest fan.

God damn, god damn. And through it all, you're my retaining wall.
7.
Fuck you, cancer. Fuck you, cancer. Fuck you, cancer. Fuck you, cancer.
8.
The world ain't ending. The sky ain't falling. Get your shit together, you got work in the morning.
9.
Everything is OK in the end. And if it's not OK, well it's not the end.

about

Here is what you might want to know: Mistakes Were Made is the fourth release by State of Franklin. Most of the songs on Mistakes Were Made are about these crazy times we are living in. Friends dying from cancer, racists marching openly in the streets, assholes with too much power. Despite the evidence, they try to be optimistic. But this is definitely the angriest record they’ve made. Can’t really blame them.

Did you know that in the very early days of the US, parts of western NC and what was to be Tennessee decided they wanted to be their own state? Fuck Raleigh, they said to themselves, we're going to be the state of Franklin. But we went back in time and sued them because we wanted that name for our band. True fucking story. ... more
