My best friend (Eva Parr a.k.a. Homebrew) and I wrote this song last year on the UC Santa Cruz campus in her dorm near the farm and we recorded it in the laundry room real late one night
lyrics
Instead of cigarettes, I'll start smoking cigars
Maybe next year I'll be stealing airplanes instead of cars
progression, succession
It's not for me
Me and my friends are all part of the machine
We never say anything genuine
and I'm starting to think that you're not my friend
we communicate by talking shit
and I'm starting to get SICK OF IT
My mother
My father
My neighbor
My brother
We all wear our masks to greet each other
The child cried, "Help me, I'm starting to drown!"
And his mother said, "Please stop screaming so loud!"
So the waves of the ocean swallowed his soul
Life left his body and death took it's toll
Then a funny being cam down to him and said, "You're not dead, you're just learning to swim!"
I see clearly that the world within me and my senses, they deceive me
Even nectar left stagnant turn to poison
So be like the ocean, embody the motion
What you give you get, and with whatever is left
Invest in the chaotic mess you call home
I know it's uncomfortable
Remove your mask
Greet your past
Take the knives from your friend's backs
Inhale each detail
Act with intention that means well
Put your feet on the ground and
BE HERE NOW
Milo has a beautiful and refreshing flow, his raps are better referred to as conscious poetry. Each instrumental is so euphoric and jazzy and smooth and wonderful, just absolute BUTTER. Underrated Freckle Face
Truly wacky pop music from a Swiss artist that spins in all sorts of directions, from the colorfully cartoony to the meditatively hypnotic. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2023
