KA-MFTD-Made From The Dirt (Song) (AUDIO): “Made From The Dirt was about the fact that everything that I value about myself, everything that I would write down if you asked me my favorite parts of me, have been born from struggle, I have gotten from overcoming obstacles. I love to get back up. I hope somebody pushes me down, baby, because when I get back up, I’m gonna be all the better for it.”

KA-CxC-02-Called Crazy (AUDIO): “Called Crazy is about, ladies, let’s have a talk. You’ve been on a date, you’ve made the mistake of asking about exes, and he or she brings up that one crazy girl, and you’re thinking to yourself, I’m worse, and she should have called me because what she did was amateur. Ladies, any man who has ever called me crazy has called me again. This is not poetic, this is cold hard truth.”

KA-CxC-03-Son Of A Gun (AUDIO): “Son of a Gun is a story about my parents, how they met, how they maybe shouldn’t have, two rights don’t make a wrong, two wrongs don’t make a right, but they do make me, baby, so do you like the way it tastes? It’s kind of owning where you came from, owning your story, whether it was meant to be, not meant to be, it happened either way.”

KA-CxC-04-I Don’t Wanna Dance (AUDIO): “I Don’t Wanna Dance is for those of you who have ever been out with all the perfect ingredients for a Friday night. The margarita is mixed perfectly, the band is good, it’s 75, your outfit is cute, but the person that you want is not there, so none of it matters. If your person isn’t there, what’s the point of dancing? I don’t wanna dance.”

KA-CxC-05-The Straw (AUDIO): “The straw is about when you’re in a relationship and you’re the person, you’re the side of the relationship that’s doing all the bending, all the breaking, all the changing, all the weight is on your shoulders and the other person doesn’t even seem to notice. There wasn’t one big moment, there wasn’t one big break. I’ve been breaking for a while and the dam finally burst. This goes out to all of y’all.”

KA-CxC-06-Angels Smoke Cigarettes (AUDIO): “Angels Smoke Cigarettes is about thinking to yourself, if I have guardian angels and I think I do, they must be tired, run ragged from all the things I put them through. But they probably are a lot like me, or they’re a lot like my dad. They’re smoking cigarettes, they’re cussing me, why am I out late? Why am I up to no good? They’re shooting back whiskey just to deal with it, but isn’t that relieving? That those that are looking after you, that are leading you on your path, really understand you to your core?”

KA-CxC-07-The Stars Know (AUDIO): “Next up is The Stars Know. The Stars Know is a nostalgic look back, happy celebration of maybe that summer that you had, wink wink, with a past loved one you don’t want back, but you will cherish forever. The river was rolling honey, the crickets were chirping, you had a great time and there was not a cell phone in sight. You know what I mean.”

KA-CxC-08-Drive You Out Of My Mind (AUDIO): “Drive You Out of My Mind is a desperate, full pedal down, 123 BPM I dare you not to dance, heartbreak fueled race through the night. When the therapy isn’t working, when the booze isn’t working, the quality time with friends, you know you have to get in your car, roll the windows down, put on your main character playlist and just drive with no destination in sight. That’s the only thing that’s gonna fix this baby, and I’ll keep driving until you’re out of my mind.”

KA-CxC-09-Til The Lights Go Out (AUDIO): “Til The Lights Go Out is for those of you that know you won’t ever quit. No matter what it takes, as long as I’m doing this, I’m gonna keep chasing it. Others don’t have to understand. You could nail my boots to the floor and I’ll still figure out a way to run and I’m not gonna be apologetic about it. Chase your dream, baby. You’re the only one who’s gonna get it. Take it easy, but take it all the same.”

KA-CxC-10-Juanita (AUDIO): “Juanita is a song about the only grandma I’ve ever had. Such an influence on me, my grandma Juanita. Picture this, a five foot two woman in a little farmhouse. She’s making you a pie, she’s making you some fried chicken. She will put you over her knee and whip you if she needs to. She’s all steel but all grace. That’s my grandma Juanita. This is a song that goes out to her, I know she’s in heaven right now, flapping her wings, smiling down. This is a song for all y’all out there who need a bit of renewal, who need to feel the sun on your back and smell the flowers.”
