I tend to usually let the music speak for itself, because I don't really like to explain the things behind the songs instead of letting people figure it out... I guess with this song, though, I just wanted to give my most transparent perspective into all the sides of being an artist of any type. 
It starts with a personal reflection of sorts and then expands into the tribulations that come with expressing yourself with a public platform.

I originally wrote this song in early 2015, but I didn't actually get the right instrumentation for it until around March of this year when my mentor, memorecks, came to visit LA & stayed at my place for a bit. We worked on music beforehand, but it was more or less just him teaching me how to make beats and whatnot when I was much younger. 

Reconnecting was an awesome experience, and him & I have some other things in the works as well, but overall the experience of having things come full circle, working with the people who originally helped me get started in the first place on an equal level, it was a very liberating experience.

I've gotten a lot more comfortable with my voice, and I think I'm finally ready to display my abilities & ideas, consistently, in the most unique routes I can take. 
Thanks for listening

Godspeed,
Dom.

Saturday

signs (prod. capt. pizza)

if i find some sleep tonight
if my eyes don't weaken my rest. on God.
could i get some sleep tonight?
or could i just remember your time alive?
but i just hate to waste time
cause that'll take some time
but i could take some time
but that'll waste
and i could use a little help whenever you're available
(forever and ever)
never, never
(forever and ever)
never, never
and i've had lenses on you since you were a baby boy
(forever and ever)
forever and ever (forever and ever)
ever, ever, ever
if you find some sleep tonight
let me be the reason your names alive
cause i could use some sleep tonight
let the stress alleviate from your mind
cause i can't waste no time on stress tonight (4x)
cause i can't waste no time in no more funerals
i'm tryna be alive tonight
wanna be alive tonight
feels good to be alive tonight
tryna be alive tonight
and maybe im the reason why i'm miserable
my mom told me the right advice
dad told me the right advice
my girl told me the right advice
just listen to that higher life

yeah yeah. for the love of my life
with the love of my life, imma plant another seed in this world
i could feed and remind me why i need her around
i don't need no one else
whether it's a mansion or a decent apartment
a crib in bel air or a studio in compton
i got you until i can't
and even though i got you, i still remain
knowing i could lose you any day
few years in, didn't plan it like this
didn't know that i would lose you when i found my new gift
i could really use your presence
but i got my new protector here. she could guide me through hell
just to show me the escape and just remind me, i'm well
evidently i've been emptier than empty, feeling dead
but the second that i hop into my bed and she's there, i'm good.

if i fall asleep tonight
i hope that i have you right by my side
father you can sleep tonight
i've got someone right here that's worth my time
now i don't believe in wasting time
time with you is never wasted time
one more day with you will make my night
one more night with you will make my life
