Talk Mellow (Prod. hima)

🔻 Song Insight
“Dark Surprise – Not My Town” is a descent into the inner chaos that lingers after betrayal, trauma, and the kind of self-exile that isn’t always visible from the outside. It’s not a clean break. It’s a spiral — one lined with static memories, fractured timelines, and buried rage.

The track weaves y industrial textures with haunting cinematic layers, pulling listeners into a world where the lines between pain and numbness blur. Each verse is a confession — not polished, not filtered, but jagged and breathless. The chorus, almost melodic, lets the smoke rise, showing the aftermath of falling for something that was never real to begin with.

It’s about getting buried alive in a version of yourself you no longer recognize — and realizing, too late, that the town, the love, the identity… was never truly yours. “Dark Surprise” isn’t about closure — it’s about the slow, spiraling process of owning your own exit.

🔻 Lyrics
Intro:
Main Voice – Spoken:
I don’t run from the truth...
I just bury it deeper.
Dual Voice – Whispered, y:
You're not fooling anyone.

Verse 1 – Rap:
I go to speak — my words free fall
Like drops on skin, no catch at all
Swimming through memories trapped in walls
I hide inside... just static calls

Glued inside my self-made cell
Falling back, say it’s all just hell
Pretend the pain is time I spend
Away from a self I won't defend

Pre-Chorus :
Surrounded by ghosts that drain
Every spark, every vein
That burn displaced my name
Hope cracked like ice in pain

Chorus:
Love dove headfirst into mud
Lies spun tight like blood
Thick layers cracked under pressure
Smoke swirled, vortex took my center
Just words... but they never last

Verse 2 – Rap:
I’m feeling rage, tension — the place I’m in
Crossed paths with death, can’t pretend
Flirted with earth, ditch dug with a shrug
No trust... lost respect, no love

Dual Voice:
You didn’t care… you let it collapse…

Psycho sprint down dead-end tracks
Wish I missed those collapse attacks
Seeped in deep where lungs can’t breathe
Toxic air, no chance to leave

Bridge – Melodic, distorted :
Realms bend — this ain’t my timeline
Slide through glass, life in decline
Seconds bleed, countdown loud
This ain't my city. This ain't my crowd.

Chorus:
Love dove headfirst into mud
Lies spun tight like blood
Thick layers cracked under pressure
Smoke swirled, vortex took my center
Just words... but they never last

Verse 3 – Rap:
Ignoring what’s down don’t stop the spin
Buck up or fuck up, that’s how it begins
Roll the dice — land on eyes
Be your own dark surprise

Lock it up. Truth dies quiet.
Only you knew… we’re on the other side.

Outrol:
This isn’t me…
This ain’t my town…
You were never really here...
