from The Achievement Gap by Foci

/
  • Limited Edition Framed Canvas Print of The Achievement Gap

    Very few things are Black&White...

    The Achievement Gap wasn't only meant to be audibly appealing but also visually engaging. The artwork, shrouded in a bit of mystery as Foci has yet to explain publicly what it all means, is now available in its entirety, for you to decipher.

    Commissioned by K "Foci" Wilson with close assistance from Mario "Antiix" Gutierrez and painted by Thomas Wu, set out to create a unique vision that reflected the content of the entire album.

    The image is set within a white wooden bevelled edge frame with dimensions of 27 1/4" wide and 11 1/2" height and is quite the site to behold.

    You aren't just getting a piece of Foci history for your collection but you are supporting "Team Foci" as the proceeds from the sales of this Limited Edition piece will go to getting them to...

    New York City, NY for the 10th Annual Underground Music Awards (bit.ly/iamfociuma VOTE NOW!)
    Atlanta, GA for the A3C Convention where they are schedule to perform (Sanctioned by the Grammy's as one of the Top 12 Must Attend Festivals in the nation)
    and most importantly
    Getting Foci back into the studio to record his follow up to The Achievement Gap, entitled "Bittersweet Lyrically" which will be offered for free right here to you that purchased this one of a kind print!

    We sincerely appreciate your support and

  • Signed Physical Copy w/ mystery merch item
    Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    The Achievement Gap in physical form signed by Foci

    This 6 Panel DigiHub is truly a piece of art in itself.
    Upon opening the CD, The commissioned painting of "The Classroom" by Thomas Wu (LAUSD Art Teacher) reveals over 40 students packed in a tiny classroom with students skin tones going progressively from light to dark.

    This masterpiece speaks volumes to the actual definition of the achievement gap and is the central focus of the content on the album. A 16 picture photo collage represents each song on the album from tracks 1-15 and the last picture will resonate with those of you in education.

    In true tradition the artwork includes the thank yous and credits holding down all those involved.

    We'll also throw in a mystery merch item.
    It could be a sticker... it could be a beanie... it could be an upcoming concert ticket.

    Includes unlimited streaming of The Achievement Gap via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Verse 1
Yo, ha what you asking me to do
Similar strained ways a formula so obtuse
Auto lose a race in pit stop before you start
Dropping heavy words and bombs fall apart
Explosive wrecking ball all casualties
Prior to foundation being made a sort of fallacy
To believe or not to believe
Words chose the suspect wisely
Finance interrogate Isley
Eyes see esquire acquire the taste for the law
Taste for the rules laid down in a cause
An effect to digest inspect any flaw
And the rest of what's left is drowned till they fall

Chorus
Yea, ah, yea
And it's freezing outside she got nothing she just told me this is her favorite song
And she said
Let's go

Verse 2
Sliding slippery slope BP'd on the gulf coast
And to see the obvious back flash into a ghost
Ha it's eyes closed with dots
An intensity spilled a cap never forgot
To contain but you go against my grain
You bring in the insanity to claim some fame
Without one defining moment of one restraint
Speak in your action and never sound waves

Chorus
Yea, ah, yea
And it's freezing outside she got nothing she just told me this is her favorite song
And she said
Let's go

Verse 3
Some keep pitching in these low digits
Same thing used to lift everybody’s spirits
Now a days to make calls you don't need dimes
Quarters present itself much easier to find
Even if equivalent to you divided by 5
Is equal to something coming more along the lines of truth
Governed too exceed a limit to soothe
Some emo dude that don't comprehend feelings
No matter which way shape form you are dealing
Those cards on deck while everybody's stealing
It's something that Gemini told me was revealing
Diverse provided the solution to her scheming, ways
