lyrics
we'll spend spend our days
we'll spend them fighting for acceptance
on a global stage
under the eyes of our oppressors
some fear to talk
some won't even live to see the next day
you'll incarcerate the ones that feel the pain the worst way
we dream of our plight
laid to rest like the innocents before us
left six feet in the ground
along with your monolithic attitudes
will you open your eyes
to see that we're the ones hurting
belligerent lies erode with the privilege you're birthed with
such beautifully layered textures and arrangements. it's in korean so i don't understand a word of it but i suspect the lyrics are dope too. the standout for me is track two, 'these chains' dave sylvester
photay manipulates sound unlike anyone else i've heard. it's organic, well intentioned music that pushes the envelope and defies genres. 'is it right?' & 'the people' are favourites of mine. dave sylvester
more sonic genius. minimal but also rich, atmospheric and devastatingly beautiful from start to finish. envelopes and ice cream are my picks but it really deserves to be listened to as a whole album. dave sylvester
