Lyrics:

I, I walk the town, I hear the sound
Of swarming vultures all around
I, I sing loud, I feel ok
But then you say shit that makes me want to shout

So SAY WHAT U WANT
What u want feel the pressure
SAY WHAT U WANT
I can't hear I'm screaming louder
SAY WHAT U WANT
What you want feel my pressure
SAY WHAT U WANT
What you want feel the pressure
Write what you want, text what you want about me
If you wanna know, I'm not sorry
SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
SAY WHAT U WANT about me

You don't know my truth, or my integrity
But SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
You don't know this heart, or my golden soul 
But SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
#SAYWHATUWANT about me

I, I can see straight, I ignore your voices
Ones ticked with thorns I know
I, I can go my own way, I know the road to hell
But for who I am I will take it

So SAY WHAT U WANT
What u want feel the pressure
SAY WHAT U WANT
I can't hear I'm screaming louder
SAY WHAT U WANT
What you want feel my pressure
SAY WHAT U WANT
What you want feel the pressure
Write what you want, text what you want about me
If you wanna know, I'm not sorry
SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
SAY WHAT U WANT about me

You don't know my truth, or my integrity
But SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
You don't know this heart, or my golden soul 
But SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
SAY WHAT U WANT about me

Sometimes I lie all alone
Thinking why am I this way
But I don't sit and weep, I get on my feet
So just run your mouths, and I just start to party

You don't know my truth, or my integrity
But SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
You don't know this heart, or my golden soul 
But SAY WHAT U WANT
SAY WHAT U WANT about me
SAY WHAT U WANT about me

Released: 5/24/24

Say What U Want

Title from an odd Twitter conversation i happened to be drawn into.

The concept actually dates prior to 6/14/2024, you can find clusters of talk on X from October of 2023 and then supposedly its a 4chan greentext too from before that (like a lot of cool urban legend concepts)

In the continuing tradition of Contains: Squirrel and some other weirdness prior to that and since that, comes another let's-take-a-risk multi-layer electronica piece.

Haters gonna hate, loyalists gonna be loyal, here we go folks!

A child of the 1980's enjoying the comeback of culture that played a big influence in my life and defined who I am. I enjoy creating music based on the sounds and memories from my youth.
My inspirations are Kraftwerk, Jean Michel Jarre, Giorgio Moroder, Mike Oldfield, Vangelis, Gary Numan, Tangerine Dream.

I enjoy all forms of electronic music especially Synthwave,  Sovietwave, Retrowave, Outrun and IDM
