lyrics

I’m just river rat, wearing a flak-jacket for the attack. Born to be the holder of weighted blades up in my back. Shoulder to strap, I carry all that and many hats. They know me as Steve Weatherbie, not the guy that raps. Blue collar audio throttle-ist, no hobbyist. I’m in a shell like a nautilus, no lobbyist. I’m broke as fuck but I never owe anybody shit. I skipped working with assholes, we don’t mix. I’m from a city of pricks, stones, and many sticks. My broken bones I mended alone for the trip. Made me a home in Grand Raggedy with a fifth of this whisky hittin’ me up in the 616. I’m out the gate like a greyhound in the Mitten State. Pick up your plate. I’m here to feed. Aint here to take. I’m Crossworm. I’m not a snake. I’m never fake. A river rat and you know that makes me hater bait.

The last fuck that I gave went bad. It’s in the trash with an age-old fad. When this art form seeps from my pores. Know the last fuck that I have aint yours.

Another immigrant chasing a dream, but what I mean is your asleep. I awoke to create the lead team. Three main feats that keep me showing teeth: 1 – I’m a beast. 2 – my ethic is “feast”. 3 – I don’t need belief. The facts laid out the hand I was dealt. Without wealth or any kind of help, I gotta earn the belt. And if I need I’ll berate it this aint me tryna take it. I’m on a journey that never ends, you can’t take it.

The last fuck that I gave went bad. It’s in the trash with an age-old fad. When this art form seeps from my pores. Know the last fuck that I have aint yours.

A river rat. I’m on the map, and I’m back. I get the feeling I’m exactly where it’s at. A river rat. I’m on the map, and I’m back. They come to me when they wanna be on the right track.

about

Crossworm Grand Rapids, Michigan

Crossworm is a heathen anti-pop artist.

"Crossworm is almost annoyingly talented. Musician, artist, poet, and essayist, he’s seemingly a potential threat in almost any artistic medium you drop him into.

Crossworm’s music is a strong mix of violent imagery, anthemic chorus’s, introspection and societal critique told from the voice of the proletariat."
