---LYRICS---

Move too slow
they won't let go

My fathers, can you hear me
you're getting very cold
holding onto what of the world you were told

Clutching your brittle strings you're a puppet full of lies
avoiding your gaze to hide all the bodies that lie
under your tapestry of promises to hide
the greed that you thrive on is the way you survive

my fathers, can you hear me
you're getting very cold
holding onto what of the world you were told

move too slow
they won't let go
move too slow
they won't let go

Lyrics:

Let me ask you a question: Why do we make music?

Why are we doing this to us, releasing track after track and 
reading through tons of feedback and screaming 'till our lungs start bleeding
It is the feeling that we get when we have finished a new track
Sharing our deepest emotions, some are blue like the ocean

Knowing that someone feels the same tells me I'm not going insane
Working so hard on everything, knowing that you're doing the same
Came here just for promotion, found new friends with devotion
Learning something new every day, blowing my troubles awaay


What are we doing? 
Why do we do it?
All for the music!


Some of us come for life while others come for praise
It’s hard to send our music off into the waves
Came here for one thing, but left with so much more
And now I see it so clearly, this is what I came here for

We’ve got your post rock, hip hop, folk and R&B
We’ve got the goods to satisfy your every need
Whatever your flavor, all are welcome here
Don't overthink, let your guard down, feel free to create without fear


What are we doing? 
Why do we do it?
All for the music!

What are we doing? 
Why do we do it?
All for the music!

---LYRICS---

i'm not praying for a rapture, after
all these things will be 
fractured and fucked up 
in a world thats chewing us up
show me your greed, none of your needs

What do you see
nothing can breathe
the violence it breeds
clamps down and

Kingdoms wont fall
if we don't fight them all
through your sweat and blood
you must crawl through it all

Greed

The Reason I'm Here (feat. Dreams of Lasers)

Hello my friends,

I'm super excited to share with you my latest song. This one is extremely special to me. When creating music, I found myself struggling with trying to create works of art that resonated with not only myself, but with others as well. After receiving a ton of negative feedback on my track I had made for Bentley, depression really kicked in. I felt lost as an artist. We all know that depression can snowball and I truly started feeling the weight of it.

One day, I decided to not go for any particular genre and just make a song from whatever flowed out of me. No copying of any sound, no trying to create music for a targeted audience, no genre restrictions. I strove to create a song that was purely an expression of my feelings and musical growth as an artist. 

That is how Catharsis came to be. It felt so freeing not being restricted. When I put aside self doubt and just focused on showing the growth I've had as an artist, I felt like I was flying, free from my emotional turmoils I had been feeling.

I hope you enjoy this track as much as I enjoyed creating it. Please remember that you are amazing in whatever you do and not to doubt yourself because, while we all struggle, its what we do to overcome them that matters. 

With love,
Soran Leif

Catharsis

Hello my friends,

When creating this track, I wanted to establish the feel of someone that is searching for the love of their life. When we are in a relationship with someone, we hope that that person is our soul mate but most of the times its just a glimpse into what we are searching for because things fall apart for various reasons. This track is about that search and yearning to find that special someone.

With this track, I feel I've leveled up a bit when it comes to sound quality of a mix. I decided to take a more subtle approach with the sound design and honestly, I feel it paid off in spades. 

I hope you are doing amazing! If you've found the love of your life, hold onto them with everything you have. If you haven't, they are out there and when you finally meet, it will be absolutely fantastic. Until next time my friends!

With Love,
Soran Leif

Glimpses Of You

Made, a wrong turn lost my way
Lost myself, where, I don't want to stay
Made, bad decisions for awhile 
Got turned around, by the tears of a crocodile 
One less mistake would, put me back on track
I'm a heart attack, away from being in the ground

So much that we wanted was out of reach
And they wanted to tell a lie
that's what they'd preach

Find the least worst way to go
It might be wrong but maybe just a little less so
After I've fallen down, I get back up 
I never learn that enough is enough

So much that we wanted was out of reach
And they wanted to tell a lie
that's what they'd preach
You were never much of a go getter
Yeah that's what they said
Now it's going from Bad to Better 
but it's in my head (you can never go back)

Half measures are better than none. 
Half step closer to getting it done. 
Not exactly to the letter 
but moved it from bad to better


Special thanks to LOHM for some production help.

Bad to Better ft. Somewhat Incognito

Whiteface Mountain is the 5th highest mountain in the state of New York, and one of the High Peaks of the Adirondack Mountains. The summit offers a 360-degree view of the Adirondack Park. On a clear day, the skyscrapers of Montreal Canada are viewable, at nearly 80 miles away. Whiteface was the main ski venue of the 1980 Winter Olympics, and is still a US Olympic training site to this day. Whiteface offers the largest vertical drop of any mountain, east of the Rockies.
