LYRICS

VERSE 1

Your guess as good as mine
My heart’s still in it
but I’m feeling tired

You say “When’s that song coming out?”
I don’t know for the thousandth time

Each day I’m just tryna smile
‘Cause life keeps hittin 
and my thoughts are wild
I find when I’m up a wave erupts and I’m gone with the tide

PRE

I think I’ve got a problem
I keep stopping and starting, uhhh
Is this the end of stallin’?
Am I all in?

CHORUS

I don’t know
But I won’t stop fighting
No control 
All I can trust is timing

I don’t know
But I won’t stop fighting
No control 
All I can trust is timing

VERSE 2 

Moved home, money’s tight
Still going out
I gotta catch a vibe
Gotta move my hips like this and risk my soul on fire

Stay up, into the night
Praying I can find something to ease my mind
Cause I can’t sustain with this pain I gained since juvenile 

PRE

And I think I’ve got a problem
I keep stopping and starting, uhhh
Is this the end of stallin’?
Am I all in?

CHORUS

I don’t know
But I won’t stop fighting
No control 
All I can trust is timing

I don’t know
But I won’t stop fighting
No control 
All I can trust is timing

BRIDGE: 

I’m gonna do my best for me
I’m rising to the test
Have no idea what’s next for me
Not sure of how or when

I’m gonna do my best for me
I’m rising to the test
Have no idea what’s next for me
Do I even want success?

CHORUS

I don’t know
But I won’t stop fighting
No control 
All I can trust is timing

I don’t know
But I won’t stop fighting
No control 
All I can trust is timing

I DON'T KNOW

Daggers

Emerging first as an instrumental, Soak It Up grew surprisingly quickly. Improvising at the piano always leads somewhere fruitful for me. The original piano recording was noisy, but in a good way with the sound of the piano hammers and fingers on the keys really suggesting a warm, cosy musical situation. The track starts out with a homemade sample and opens out into vocals from Kojey Radical which describe an ongoing relationship in turmoil. There’s love in the song but also recognition of the gripes and annoyances on each side. It was a real vibe putting it together.

Felt like bigging up all the women all around the world today. As usual, this has been recorded on my iPhone so excuse the occasional distortions (feel free to buy me a proper mic if you want 😂)

Hey there Delilah this one's for you.

Resolution

The song "We Contain Multitudes" by Ólafur Arnalds in the cover version of tjomur and YANA successfully combines two worlds: acoustic, represented by the piano and multi- layered violin lines, and electronic, mostly built on different kind of synthesizers. Based on an excerpt from a theme from the original piece (written exclusively for piano), tjomur and YANA have created an extensive, structured composition.
