    "Twisted" Lyrics
    Don’t go get it twisted - thought that you could fix it
    Called it your best shot - how did you miss it?
    Closing in the distance - pay off a penance
    Ain’t no textbook tell you when it’s finished
    I mean not to mention, ain’t that your business
    Did you ever think you could be forgiven?
    Even if I’d listened, stopped playing the victim
    showed you all the wounds I already had open
    Easier said than done - I’m tired of living on the run
    Twisted, twisted
    Foolish child broken - looking for his mother
    tryna find her in every woman that he called a lover
    That’s how he shows her, all of his power
    keeper of the secrets - but, he’s a coward
    to let go - all of the control
    south node scorpio
    I been tryna fix it, with just my lyrics
    but, I gotta find the heart to do it
    Well, this is easier said than done
    I’m tired of living on the run.
    I need help
    You are no exception, you’ve got to love yourself
    How could this happen?
    Forgive yourself
    Nobody can do that just me and myself
    But I got it twisted
    Oh I got it twisted
    Pull another card out, read into spoken
    there were seven swans in formation
    Throwing all the bones now, I gotta clean house
    I’m so hard on everybody, especially myself
    Take off my tattoos - I’m just a regular dude - inside a costume
    under the skin, I got
    game in it, I made paint with it, I became the same shame
    I know cause I was born from it
    Easier once it was done
    I’m tired of living on the run
    I need help
    You are no exception, you’ve got to love yourself
    How could this happen?
    Forgive yourself Nobody can do that just me and myself
    But I got it twisted
    Oh I got it twisted

    I reacted like I stepped on a thumbtack when I first heard the pop overtones and structure. But who am I to judge? Nahko's music was the catalyzing force behind my personal transformation due to its self-reflective nature and after listening to this a whole host of challenging thoughts and feelings have presented themselves for my further personal growth, as usual with his medicine. Maybe I'm unhealthily attached to that original organic sound of the first albums, maybe its a crutch I use to nostalgically marinate in the rose tinted memories of the first phases of my awakening, maybe its a familiar drug I use to escape the conundrums of my current reality while allowing unhealed wounds and unexplored pain that has been more recently created to fester and grow unchecked. My garden needs some careful, attentive, and heartfelt tending and that cannot be done if all I want to do is sit on the porch and daydream about how great last season's harvest was. Its time to grow again, to be comfortable with discomfort again.

    I’m in tears. Walls are crumbling down and these tears make me happier than I ever thought possible.

    This is entirely a different approach on their music, and I must say. This is really really good. Shows how much more versatile Nahko and the band can be. I love it actually.

    When I heard that second-worst for the very first time I was alone I was miserable I was soul-searching and so many questions got answered. I'm not even kidding everything just flooded into my mind and I'll tell you... I cried my eyes out. This man's music is nothing short of absolutely blessed and phenomenal and life-saving. I had so many questions answered with that second verse it was amazing and rather sad at the same time. But these things happen. Music that truly touches your soul is going to elicit an emotional response from you. And this one really really does that. I would give anything to be able to meet this man shake his hand give him a hug and say thank you.

    Love the new song. It does have a pop sound but Nahko lyrics. Still resonates and this song may broaden his fan base. I’m still an old school Nahko fan but loving all his new stuff. So much love for all the healing your music has brought to me.

    I love this so much! This hits home hard but very soul opening I actually teared up. For all the closet warriors you all are not alone. You're stronger than u give yourselves credit.

    4 yrs ago I stopped running. I just stopped. Working eating meat working for the machine it's not easy doing nothing so to speak. Mediation helps. Cleaning the outside well I work on the inside. I found Nahko Rudd Wookiefoot this beautiful music no more Gangsta Rap. No more victim blaming just rising like yeast to conquer peace and stop the BEAST

    Nahko! Do not leave your alternative music! After years of your nice music I am listening again this new Pop like song. Its not you Nahko! Maybe you do not realized it. Pop music has big messages in Lyrics. But this messages do not get heared, cause people only hear and do not feel pop music! Sometimes they feel, but they just listening like every Music. And your music is special to many many people! Please take care of yourself and your own way to show you and give us what you think its good and needed. Still much love for you! With the song budding tree I´ve got my first really personality change. In a positive way :) Warrior people is a piece of the flame in my heart!

    Ouch Nahko, I thank you for your music and sharing of yourself. Your music always speaks to me.

  • @Justbetru

    Just started listening to this song and the rest of this album and I gotta say it’s fire 🔥 I’m sorry I passed over it when it came out. Probably because of the pop sound. I regret that now. The messages in this song, part problem, and Skin in the game are real truth. You gotta look at yourself with a lense of truth if your ever going to progress in love. Much love to you Nahko on your journey.

    Nahko this is perfect how you can write a song about yourself I think and still touch so many others. I have to forgive you if I want to forgive myself too
