about

"...it's funny how sometimes the context of the world frames what they mean more than what they were intended to mean. I had written this song solely as a way of recording a stream of consciousness spiral I was having about my existence one night. Looking back at it now I feel it speaks so much to the "Class of 2020" and how we cope in a virtual world.

lyrics

-Chorus-
I’d give you a classic
But this whole class sick
How’re we healin'

I’d give you classic
But this whole class sick
Afraid of feelings

I’d give you a classic
But this whole class sick
Can anyone hear them?

I’d give you a classic
But this whole class sick
I want to heal them

-Verse-
I’m...more than a rapper.
I’m an artistic musical master of ceremonies
Who rathers
His ordinary sprinkled with passions
never observed,
So sit and observe
And watch how a nerd
Flirts with the words
Like juries flirt with guilty verdicts.
So unnervous, my nerve is an inspiring virus.
Never cocky but my confidence been multiplying.
I even wrote this verse on papyrus as a New Testament to show exactly how I’m arriving.
Nah, I’m jiving
I wrote this joint on my screen
Typed it with keys after meandering mindlessly through internet BS
'Cuz that’s how I destress.
Or maybe I just repress...
Damn it, now I can’t re-press these apps (nah nah nah)
'Cuz they contributed to the numbness I’m feeling inside myself
I logged off for a week and felt a freedom softer than the felt of a newborn puppet or a pup bred from Pomeranian and Samoyed
Boy, I enjoyed it
My clairvoyance went up by one hundred percent
It started making more sense
Life can be so morbid I imported my importance to the digital realm
Timmy Turner’s “Internet” is the fate i befell
Shout out big bro George Orwell
My class all here too so oh well

-Chorus-
I’d give you classic
But this whole class sick
How are we healin'

I’d give you classic
But this whole class sick
Afraid of feelings

I’d give you a classic
But this whole class sick
Can anyone hear them

I’d give you a classic
But this whole class sick
I want to heal them
