lyrics

Everybody got a story
I tell mine as an allegory of a spiritual journey
Simply learning, discerning what’s important
Living a parable, the hare versus the tortoise
Sometimes facts can hold you back and fiction lets you believe
You can achieve goals rationally far out of reach
Chisel a sculpture carved out of speech
Shining stars that can carry as far as our heart beats
And past that, amassing all the good
Relearning truths forgotten once universally understood
I’m a kernel of the universe
I’m born from and one day will succumb and return back into the earth
It’s not grief I should feel but true peace revealed
Once the veil is peeled back we can see what’s real
A meal for my soul
It took a while for me to find the dinner table hope my food ain’t get cold
Hope I follow the light that glows within side me
I find the gift of life so inspiring
Die with a smile on my face and still trying
My feet rooted deep to the ground my mind flying

The vibes here are everywhere from fuego to soul clapping to rainy day jazz to lucid dreaming to bourbon beach party. I think if I actually had all the samples I wanted my own project would sound pretty similar. This belongs in a museum. Those Joe Exotic samples though...🚶‍♂️🐅 😂 My new favorite drop from Common and Normal. 𝕍 𝕚 𝕣 𝕘 𝕠 ♕ 𝕍 𝕒 𝕟 𝕕 𝕒 𝕝
