about

This is a random song from my album "All the Seeds Yet to See the Sun" which I'll be releasing later this month. This song is live (as in one-take in my room), and uses a looper-pedal, it is not perfect by any means but I believe that life isn't meant to be flawless so why should we expect music to be any different? This song is about many topics such as people who conform to social norms and do what they think they want instead of what they truly need. I hope you like it, and if you're feeling generous I'd really appreciate the support that your purchase would be providing!

lyrics

What you want isn't what you need
It's far to easy to succumb to greed
And you try to sanctify your selfish deeds
You say the guys I hang around with are just like me
I just don't see how it's a normal thing to be the same
Where's the originality
In your integrity
Oh, what I would give for you to see
Your pain could be set free
There's hope in a world so worldly

Just cus' you rely on it doesn't mean you love it
And saying you're better doesn't make you above it
I'm just a singer, you don't have to take my advice
I'm not too qualified but it feels pretty nice
I'd rather give love than disguise lies
I prefer to feed the mind than feed the eyes
Oh, what I would give for you to hear
There's no such thing as fear
If you know the machine, and that you're a gear

Something has to exist in order for anyone to be against it
