LYRICS:
I don’t feel so smart today (a fool in fact)
I don’t know where I lost control
Nobody bothered to wake me
I slept too late

But I know I can - I always do
I can take it - I’ll figure it out so soon
Just give me one more night under this moon
Tomorrow I’ll take it on

I don’t feel so cool today (yeah I lost track)
I lost track of your love
Will I ever get it back
I’m a fool in fact

I’ll find a way to grow a little stronger
I’ll find a way to carry my own weight
Can’t run away from me much longer, no
I’ll find a way to carry my mistakes

But I know I can - I always do
I can take it - I’ll figure it out so soon
Just give me one more night under this moon
Tomorrow I’ll take it on

I’ll find a way to grow a little stronger
I’ll find a way to carry my own weight
Can’t run away from me much longer, no
I’ll find a way to carry my mistakes

I’ll take it all on
I'll take it all
I'll take it

Who do you talk to
Who do you see
What do you do when I'm not around?
Cuz I'm busy and I'm strong
And nothing's gonna slow me down

Who would you talk to
Who would you see
What would you do if I let you down?
Cuz I'm busy and I'm strong
And nothing's gonna stop me now

Have you found my complex
Buried underneath the brush
Take care, I may have said too much
Have you found my weakest reflex
Bound up in sensitivity
Hold me, promise that you'll never leave

I don't know what you're talking about (complex)
It was late, I was half asleep (complex)
We were drinking, got carried away (complex)
OK, you're right, what's next?

Do you need more, do you really need more?
Isn't all this time enough for you?
Cuz I'm busy and I'm strong
And nothing's gonna change for you

Have you found my complex
Buried underneath the brush?
Take care, I may have said too much
Have you found my weakest reflex
Bound up in sensitivity?
Hold me, promise that you'll never leave

i'm letting you let go / i'm giving up control / you're on a different road / they carried you away / i feel your doubtful soul / feel you question all i know / it's time for you to go / did you enjoy your stay? // i'll let you teach me everything / everything that's meant to be / so change me, unchain me / change me until i lose track of... // time: you cannot chase it, it will outrun you every time / you cannot fight it, cuz it will knock you out // but unstoppable you go / fading fast into the fold / do i move thru life too slowly / we will see in the end // i'll let you teach me everything / everything that's meant to be / so change me, unchain me / change me until i lose track of... // time: you cannot chase it, it will outrun you every time / you cannot fight it, cuz it will knock you out

LYRICS:
All the things
That I want to do with me
Hold me back from doing the
Things I want to do
You're so lucky
You've got everything that I need
In this world to succeed
And there's nothing I can do

The look, the style, the understated smile
The lack of care for everybody there
The talent, the force, the acrobatic voice
Everybody 'round you knows it, cuz it's true

You're a star
You can make it through
You're a star
And it's time to rise up

It's a trap
And there is no turning back
Your face opens a door that
Sets my demons loose

The look, the style, the understated smile
The lack of care for everybody there
The talent, the force, the acrobatic voice
Everybody 'round you knows it, and they're talking

You're a star
You can make it through
You're a star
It's time to rise up

All you got to do is play it cool
Don't hesitate to play it up
You're a star
You can make it through
Careful to never miss a step
Too much is riding on your rise
This is the life that you have chosen
Everybody 'round you knows it, so live it up

You're a star!
You have made it through!
You're a star!
It's time to rise up!

Revolve (Miles Francis Basement Rework)

Produced, arranged, composed, and performed by Miles Francis
Mixed by Julian Fader at Gravesend Recordings
Additional mixing by Carlos Hernandez
Mastered by Alex DeTurk at Strange Weather Studios, Brooklyn
Recorded in the Cornelia Street Basement, Manhattan

LYRICS:
For those who lost their flair, there’s a dance
For those who can’t do it like they did before
For those still holding out for a chance
Might as well face it: you’ve lost the spark

Lightning never strikes the same place twice
Don’t waste your time chasing storm after storm
So treat yourself, dress up in something nice
And do the dance for when the magic’s gone

CHORUS:
Tense up your body, freeze up your mind
Move around in circles and
Do the sophomore slump
Vision is spotty, you’ve passed your prime
Give yourself the jitters and
Do the sophomore slump

Don’t worry, it may pass
Unless you’re just a little flash in the pan
Take a step back and have some class
There’s someone better, and they’re making plans

Being cool is easy to pull off
But staying cool is just not in the cards
So treat yourself and buy a cool guitar
Play a tune, and find yourself a job

CHORUS:
Tense up your body, freeze up your mind
Move around in circles and
Do the sophomore slump
Vision is spotty, you’ve passed your prime
Give yourself the jitters and
Do the sophomore slump

Sophomore Slump

Remix produced by Bright Light Bright Light https://soundcloud.com/brightlightx2
Original: https://soundcloud.com/instamiles/complex

LYRICS:
I don't know what you're talking about (complex)
It was late, I was half asleep (complex)
We were drinking, got carried away (complex)
OK, you're right, what's next?

Who do you talk to
Who do you see
What do you do when I'm not around?
Cuz I'm busy and I'm strong
And nothing's gonna slow me down

Who would you talk to
Who would you see
What would you do if I let you down?
Cuz I'm busy and I'm strong
And nothing's gonna stop me now

Have you found my complex
Buried underneath the brush
Take care, I may have said too much
Have you found my weakest reflex
Bound up in sensitivity
Hold me, promise that you'll never leave

I don't know what you're talking about (complex)
It was late, I was half asleep (complex)
We were drinking, got carried away (complex)
OK, you're right, what's next?

Do you need more, do you really need more?
Isn't all this time enough for you?
Cuz I'm busy and I'm strong
And nothing's gonna change for you

Have you found my complex
Buried underneath the brush?
Take care, I may have said too much
Have you found my weakest reflex
Bound up in sensitivity?
Hold me, promise that you'll never leave
