about

I wrote this song sitting in a parking lot, under a hot sun, in the days shortly after George Floyd was murdered. I was dealing with my emotions surrounding the events and unrest in my city and this song came out as I sat down to play.

lyrics

Sittin’ out here in the heat of the day.
Nothin’ to do but my guitar to play.
Thinkin’ ‘bout the memory of a man I never knew.
If things were different wonderin’ what I’d do.

Take the air away from me.
Blind my eyes so I can’t see.
Tell the mountains to fall on me.
But I’m still here.

Can’t feel the things that he must’ve felt.
Can’t play the hand of the cards that he was dealt.
Well I search my soul and I rack my brain.
Can’t find a reason to help explain.

Take the air away from me.
Blind my eyes so I can’t see.
Tell the mountains to bury me.
But I’m still here.

I hear the thunder, don’t see no rain.
The screams, the laughter, to me it sounds like pain.
With all the good we have to give.
Why don’t we live and just let live.

Take the air away from me.
Blind my eyes so I can’t see.
Tell the mountains to fall on me.
But I’m still here.

Take the air away from me.
Blind my eyes so I can’t see.
Tell the mountains to fall on me
But I'm still here.

Jerry Kosak Saint Paul, Minnesota

My musical voice is a synthesis of diverse styles, freely connected, pushing categorical boundaries. There is no “should” to my voice; rather, each sound, chord, and rhythm presents itself as an opportunity for the music to unfold in a unique or unconventional direction, resulting in performances of intriguing music that challenges expectations but also sounds familiar and beautiful. ... more
