about

I had an idea of a song, and I wanted everything in the track to be wrestling with each other at the same time as being perfectly content. Potent drums with mellow synths, double time rhythms with laid back percussion. In a way, B-ahwe reflected the idea in her lyrics (subconsciously, as she laid down the vox as soon as I played it to her in pretty much one take) about trying to move on from the past with a certain self-affirmation of knowing it's okay to trip as we can move forward after the fall. It's an offering for us to heal, feel warm and feel whole.

lyrics

How long will i fall
Must I let the past dictate how I grow
Does the path form itself
Do i craft each turn or regret my steps
Need to Find some trust
See the space in where I am
Need to find some faith
Know the weather will always change
Lost my step again
Doesn’t mean I fell behind
All finds its time
Patience is half the battle won
Must I hit the rewind
I wanna just be kind
Don’t let the past control me
simmers in so smoothly
Days pass lights turn dim
Sun dips out of reach
my mind weighted
fall as fast as I fly
Don’t know this waste land
Can’t recognise my own hands
Turn against myself as
quickly As I found ground
Nights close in on me
Chest crushed as I sleep
Can I be both sides
Joni seeking her smile
Take a sec to recharge
Soon I’ll find my power
See the road ahead
Not the war fields left behind
This battle ground be gradual
Each day a blessing
though the path be rough
I fell as much as I got up
Stronger each time
See I am that mountain
Though the weather moves me
Keep on moving on
Till my feet their own movie
See the past play in
Black and white
Future technicolour
So am I
My soul just too rich
Takes a lifetime to grip
Burn the past
Feet will fall where they belong
