about

Motel 6 takes the listener through a continuously building narrative both sonically and lyrically. A woman is out for revenge against her cheating husband. DZ Riley makes the listener feel as if they are inside her head, experiencing her thoughts.

lyrics

I'm here to kill a man
He was my former lover
He robbed us of our plans
And ran off with another

Been lied to for so long
I did not know no better
His car's at motel 6
That's where they lay together

He buys her lingerie
I bought myself a gun
Model 57, Smith & Wesson
I knew 'soon as it spun
Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy on me

I pull into the lot
I check into my room
I know they're here tonight
I smell her cheap perfume

I throw my duffle on the bed
They're in the room next door
I hear them make a mock of us
They go for one round more
Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy on me

Come on baby girl, now
You can do it
Just pull the trigger
There ain't nothin' too it
It's as easy as...
