Make sure to wear some bass heavy earphones or stream to a good sound system for the best experience. 

 

Also, if you can do me a solid and hit the share button on the soundcloud embed above to share the song with your friends/family on social media. That would be outstanding.

A Fish Like This

Tim Stiles feat. Trinity Richter

 

[Tim] 
Our stream still flows 
While their lakes run dry
Trout will spawn 
While the Angels fly

Taking flight 
With an astronomical RBI 
Meet Mike, 
Our Millville Meteorite

The media’s in tow 
As the season’s streamed live 
All at the way to the heavens with 
Twenty-seven ways to die

Gravity defying 
When fielding in Anaheim 
Undeniably a match 
For greatest of all-time

His streak can only grow 
Pitchers oughta opt to quit 
Once they “reel" from the first hit 
Expecting the opposite

At 20 years old 
He’s a piranha in the mist 
With the gills and gall 
To crush ‘em all over the fence

With the tenure of a rookie 
And a professional confidence 
There’s no question, 
Among us, a legend exists

It seems he’ll never falter 
You can lead players to water
But can you teach ‘em 
How to fish, like this!?

 

CHORUS [Tim]
Whether crushed to the left 
Or deep, center-right 
Their fence is neglected 
By Magic Mike

Putting runs on the board 
Hear the ring and the crack 
As the Angels sing 
With every swing of his bat

 

[Tim]
We’re in flight now and it's 
Always the right crowd 
From the opening pitch 
Till the stadium’s, light’s out

A star on the field, 
Stand up off the diamond 
With a generous light, 
Mike Trout

“The Phenom” astounds 
Straight poundin’ the zone 
Striking low, never out 
At this plate called, “home"

Taking the first pitch brings a 
Short, compact swing 
Making pitchers’ heads ring 
With a strength to crack bones

With 100’s of home runs 
And stolen bases 
He leaves opposing players 
In tears with swollen faces

Previous records he erases
It’s been years since the league 
Has seen such a 
Winner Above Replacement

Flying through the air 
Making catches with ease 
Reaching for the skies 
While others grasp at the trees

In the '09 draft 
Passed by 21 teams? 
Now making an act out 
Of the acronyms 
In the M-L-B

From M-V-P to W-A-R leader 
These two are just a part 
Of a running list

It seems he’ll never falter 
You can lead a rookie to water
But can you teach ‘em 
How to fish, like this?

 

[Trinity]
Fans begin to gather
Halos above their heads
Wings spread wide as grins
Feathers catch the wind

Predators in the water
Start to sneak in
But no one ever taught ‘em
How to swim

 

CHORUS [Tim] 
Trout Farm on the left 
Trout Net, center-right 
Our fence is protected 
By Magic Mike

Taking runs off the board 
Steady bringing ‘em back 
Letting the Angels sing 
With every leap and a catch 

Whether crushed to the left 
Or deep, center-right 
Their fence is neglected 
By Magic Mike

Putting runs on the board 
Hear the ring and the crack 
As the Angels sing 
With every swing of his bat

 

[Tim]
With class, speed, power 
And a smile to increase his leverage 
It’s no wonder he’s compared 
To major league legends

Back-to-back MVP 
Like Mays, Garvey, & Carter 
A feat unaccomplished 
Since Jr. Cal Ripken

Bets against Trout are 
No doubt, a sticky gamble 
Features on ESPN 
Keep ya from switching the channel

Channeling the 
Best of the majors, 
Wagered quick as Ricky Henderson 
Switch-hitting like Mickey Mantle

To those who say his skill set 
Is merely unilateral, 
Why would Sports Illustrated 
Declare him supernatural?

Just for the “halibut?" 
We’ll give ‘em a line test 
Let their damaging press 
Sink down into collateral

While haters state their claims 
With a clear defiance 
His fans won’t fan those flames 
They’ll defeat the tyrants

It doesn’t take two kids 
In an 80’s basement trying 
To make the best ball player 
No longer a Weird Science

 

[Trinity]
Fans begin to gather
Halos above their heads
Wings spread wide as grins
Feathers catch the wind

Predators in the water
Start to sneak in
But no one ever taught ‘em
How to swim

Fans begin to gather
Halos above their heads
Right outside the fence
Feathers catch the wind

Predators in the water
Never learned to swim
They’ll sink to the bottom
As Angels win

 

CHORUS [Tim]
Trout Farm on the left 
Trout Net, center-right 
Our fence is protected 
By Magic Mike

Taking runs off the board 
Steady bringing ‘em back 
Letting the Angels sing 
With every leap and a catch

Whether crushed to the left 
Or deep, center-right 
Their fence is neglected 
By Magic Mike

Putting runs on the board 
Hear the ring and the crack 
As the Angels sing 
With every swing of his bat

Someone we all know and love needs to wise up, pass that along to Tim Mead and let nature takes its course... Angels fans will hear it, go apeshit.... and all will be well.

This^^^^^

I just listened to it for the first time and I think it's great. Very creative and I also think that Trout & the Angels org will love it. Trinity should be a guest of the Trout Farm and get to hold the Trout Net this summer. Nicely done Trinity!!!

The Trout Farm is a corporate venture with the Smile Generation. We should get a block of seats together out there during the mid-summer fan fest. I think Trinity deserves recognition for her hard work. I'm pretty sure that Tim Mead could set up a nice meet and greet for you and your family with Mike Trout and some local media. This is a nice feel good story that all Angels fans will enjoy.
