lyrics

You'd say, I can't hold on any longer
You keep on floating away
I know your somebody's daughter
And I will treat you that way

You'd say, I gotta outrun the smoking gun
You keep on running away
I know you're somebody's only son
And I will treat you that way

We'd say, we can't hold on any longer
We keep on floating away
But we're a son and a daughter
We can't forget how to play
We can't forget how to play

When I reached out to you
You offered me your hand
We left those frigid oceans
Finding hope on barren land
So when I exhaled, blowing letters, not just the o's
Scholars years ago labeled it the Rosetta Stone
So I credit you, for shaping the clay
That fabricates my muscles, and my matter that is grey
By linking up my molecules and put them on display
Cause evolution made me human, made the man I am today SO

We'd say, we can't hold on any longer
We keep on floating away
But we're a son and a daughter
We can't forget how to play
We can't forget how to play

And old man once told that the fittest survive
Those with the wanderlust, the ones with the drive
So when I pack up my bags, start my future, set fourth
I'm heading back to the bay, my happy place in the North
Know that it's for a reason, it's been genetically coded
Like weather to a season, like the pistol's been loaded
Yea you're product your mother's smile, ecstatic with tears
You're the product of a journey that took millions of years

about

Modern Ritual San Luis Obispo, California

Futurepop from the Central Coast of California. Electronic dreams and subsonic nightmares. Liquid melodies with heavy bass dynamics and light etherial break downs. This is what happens when Jefferson Airplane, E-40, and a robot bang and reproduce. Drenched in digitalism with the understanding that Humans are analog waveforms. ... more
