Way Up (feat. DRIF SONIX)prod by. KIYOTO

This is an old song that I've been sitting on for quite a while. It's very personal, yet unpolished. It's definitely something I want to share with you, but finding the right time to bring it up has been hard. I'm in a much better place now, and have been in no rush to revisit this conversation. That being said: this song helped me through some tough times and if it can do the same for you or someone you know, it would be irresponsible of me to keep it to myself.

Lyrics:
I'm sitting here thinking bout the life I'm leading
Torn apart, I feel like my soul is bleeding
So many people I mistreated, but I swear I didn't mean it
I was focused on my demons
Got caught up in the day to day
Lost track of the things that I meant to say
And now it's too late
So many missed chances, blown opportunities
But confusion's nothing new to me
I see a face in the mirror I don't recognize
Older now, but I haven't grown inside
I feel pain when I close my eyes
My thoughts drift to suicide, I can't lie
Listen, I don't see at as an option
I'm just saying that I think about it often
I would never make my mother pick a coffin
There's some lines that aren't meant for crossing
Not to mention, I see it as the coward's way out 
I'd rather dig deep, reach back, and smack life in the mouth
Have a little bit of pride in yourself
It'll go a long way towards riding it out
Trust me

The rain keeps falling down
And the rain keeps falling down
So dig your roots into the ground
And grow tall, grow tall

I try to move on, shake it off
But I can't help but feel a sense of loss
There was a reason why our paths crossed
Sometimes I wonder if we're all lost
But nah, somebody out there knows a better way
Without a sense of doom every single night and day
I grab my head, hit my knees and I start to pray
But it's been too long, I don't know what to say
I'm grasping for straws, falling apart from all my cracks and my flaws
Would you look at all the shit that you caused?
Two worlds forever at odds
It's like I never even had a chance
Troubled kid in some baggy pants, listening to metal bands
Fuck it
Enough about me, let's switch the subject
I can't change the things that I grew up with
Nor do I want to make them public
You gotta rise above it
I tell myself that, yet I find myself looking right back
Like I can't move forward
It's like it just keeps pouring

The rain keeps falling down...

"This Simulation is a Good One" is about taking a moment to notice the details of the world around you. Slowing down to appreciate the beautiful intricacies of every day life. It's a state of appreciation for the countless little events that had to happen for you to be where you are today. Everything from the mundane to the spectacular. Even if we are not the original beings and we are participating in the ancestor simulation, it's a good one. This song was made in Elysian Heights, Los Angeles on a Tascam 388 with Roland GR300 guitar synthesizer and live percussion from Derek G Taylor.
