(LYRICS)

I lean before the righteous 
I could never write this I speak when my soul is sighted 
You see me in a state that I could never come back from 
I poked my head through the ether found some new teachers 
Like a reacher I leant forward and I spoke like a preacher 
I walk alone most times 
Like a lone wolf that cry’s 
Never show my emotions 
I block them up like a blind 
Plus I struggle to focus because my view is so wide 
Huh
They call me night walker 
Light forcer 
Metal man 
Cyborger 
Screws inside my mainframe 
I’m screwed if I don’t maintain 
The beeps on the metal detector, help me stay sane 
There’s heaps of different kind of pressure with the same pain 
There’s heaps of blood inside the dresser when I lose aim 
I watched the greats for years and I turned to a poet 
The pain taught me well aswell but how do I show it 
I relayed all the motion that I went through now I focus 
On trying to be the man
Im just trying to be the dopest 
I can sense fakeness, from like a mile away 
You could smile for days, but your mask is like mist
Eventually it will fade, now you’re stuck in my gaze 
And unfortunately, once your revealed you cannot switch 
I could never break bread with a man, that is a snitch 
But I can break heads on the pavement, if you diss 
So just hold onto your statement better than getting a brain replacement 
I stay inside my basement and down here its fucking vacant 
Its just me myself and I 
With my soul in the sky 
Everytime I close my eyes, I can’t feel it’s alive & sometimes when I listen close, I can hear it cry 
When I deviate, off my path
I fear my fate, will I last 
Through all the hard times and not just the good ones 
I feel like my pastimes hold me for ransom 
I feel alive in the rain, so out there I stay dancing 
I close my eyes when I pray, waiting hoping for answers 
I need a girl with a sharp mind, a nurturing cancer 
I don’t like the fake tan, I don’t fuck with the Fanta 
Id rather sit with deep thoughts, drop you gifts like Im Santa
I can’t deal with small talk, I need rabbit hole banter 
Im trying to eradicate lust so we connect with no jammer 
Im forced to leave if we don’t vibrate, on the same wave 
I don’t flee like a highway, I say it to your face 
Cause I respect all the time that we spent, I’m not playing games
I could never hurt a soul out of spite, watch souls bleed 
Im a man of my word so if I say it imma lead
I lost all direction when her eyes locked onto me, ahh
I step by myself I’m more than well
But if she was by my side, we would conquer many worlds 
We will meet again its just all in due time 
Every time I wish for something I just wish for more time

Born in Paris and living in Barcelona, Maryu is an historical @hors_sol member. Very honored to contribute to Deep House Tehran, he recorded a podcast with his latest discoveries in progressive, minimal & dubby trance, also accompanied by small voices. Each day, Maryu is sensitive to ecology, feminist struggle, animal welfare & deeply revolted by the patriarchy, colonialism, imperialism that lead the men to violence. For this mix, he chose to begin with the following text from the gaza poet Mohammed Moussa, issued to the EP called « GAZA » by the duo Ësenaim. :

« Every night I attend my funeral in a tent
Meet the same angels
Recount the story of my death to myself
And reveal the secret of surviving a featureless life to no one
Only to realise that no one cares to listen to you
Once you’re dead »

Because we must think about the genocide and support the Palestinans every day, help them in any way possible : donations, political demonstrations, prayers, debates. And never forget. It’s just humanity. FREE GAZA
