This song is about choosing effort over convenience and growth over shortcuts. It’s a love song built on motion, learning, and showing up even when you don’t know what you’re doing yet. Instead of buying meaning, it’s about building it, piece by piece, through time, mistakes, and persistence. The energy is confident and uplifting, turning devotion into momentum and love into action. It celebrates the idea that willingness, patience, and commitment matter more than perfection or polish.

Lyrics

I didn’t start knowing how
I just started

Didn’t buy the answer
Didn’t fake the shine
Sat with the mess
Till it started making sense in my mind

Every wrong click yelling
Turn back now
I kept going
Funny how it works out

I don’t need it easy
I don’t need it fast
I just need a reason
That makes it last

Give me the parts and the time to learn
I’ll build anything for you
If it fights me first
I’ll stay and earn
Every inch of what I’m moving through

I don’t need perfect
I don’t need proof
Give me the parts and the time to learn
I’ll build anything for you

Time to learn
Hands in it
Built from scratch
All in it

Late nights turning into momentum
Something clicks now I’m ahead
Not chasing done
Chasing better
Watching effort turn into breath

I don’t quit when it pushes back
That’s where I wake up
That’s where I’m at

I don’t promise easy roads
I promise stay
I promise showing up
Every way

Give me the parts and the time to learn
I’ll build anything for you
If it breaks me down
I’ll return
With stronger hands than I used to use

I don’t need perfect
I don’t need proof
Give me the parts and the time to learn
I’ll build anything for you

I don’t wait till I’m ready
I get ready by doing

Give me the parts and the time to learn
I’ll build anything for you
Not because I know the way
But because I choose

I don’t buy the moment
I move
Give me the parts and the time to learn
I’ll build anything for you

Anything
For you

Time To Learn

I built Shiitake Products because the world needed a home for beautiful nonsense and soul-splitting truth.

Sometimes that looks like a dancefloor meltdown at 2am.
Sometimes it's a button that says "Mildly Okay Human."
Sometimes it's a whispered hymn to grief.

It's all real. It's all me.
This is my multiverse—and you're invited.
Here, AI collides with human emotion to create music that actually means something. From dark trap bangers to cinematic alt-rock anthems, from emo-folk confessionals to glitch-satire ballads—every track is a story, a mood, a moment.
Not built for algorithms. Built to feel.
