Luminous Tides

{crystalline synth pads fading in,

slow filter sweep} {wide stereo motion building} I swear that freedom

is a weakness

I’m prayin for the weekend Cuz I’m hopin they don’t leak this

Without a pot

to piss in

I’m not judged

by my attentions

{breathy female lead, airy high register}

Wanna talk about you

But you stand by yo decision

I ran up a mountain

I was callin to the pidgeons The birds and the bees

On my knees

Want forgiveness {intimate close mic,

emotional control} I don’t

see the keys

Paid the fees got a vision Sometimes I wonder Am I the

hero or the villain

Yeah life’s tough

Yeah life sucks

Drive you down a hard road Where the lights hush

{wide reverb harmonies sharp,

stereo adlibs clean} {peak melodic synth line with driving

low end}

I be better on my own

Without the wife stuff

Member feelin all alone

With all the white stuff

No behavior I condone

Well that’s a nice touch I find ways to justify it When

it’s not just {breathy precise delivery clean} Im a flawed human being

In a tight crunch

Am I a hero or a villain

Or a nice son

I guess a man will never know

until his time come I will answer to the one And him

only

{intimate close mic crisp}

So keep opinions to yourself If u don’t know me homie

Concentrate on betta things Control yo emotions

Live yo life with pride and devotion

I don’t wanna hear about alterier motives

{stereo adlibs clean, wide reverb harmonies sharp}

I can’t stop to think I got bigger things in motion

Yeah I figured out the key And I left you all alonesome

I just hope that you recover it takes one to know I

came along way from servin rocks {breathy female lead airy} Was addicted

to

the life

But when u livin like you Al Capone You get a nice

rush And I know that it ain’t optimal

Life is full of options I got all the stock in common

folk They don’t care life ain’t fair Life’s a gamble roll the

dice

if you dare {peak melodic synth line with

driving low end} It’s the struggle it’s too much we’re aware Domestic

violence got you clutching silverware I just need some peace cuz my

mindset is my lair Wake up lookin in the mirror I compare

We exhilarated need defibrillator Misery is not respected you and instigator Why

don’t you try bein happy for I see u later Always crying

bout yo troubles get some tissue paper I need you to be

strong and fix yo issues baby Put

the cross over my mental illness poppin up when u in pain

I am tired stress is weighing on my

brain I stay positive I gotta keep it sane I’ll be honest

w and my honesty’s to blame A

can’t tell u what u

wanna

here I promise I

can change {fading crystalline layers,

slow pan motion} {residual motion fading to silence}
