I can't wake up. Losing myself. I just make up everything I do.

The Marmot 03:02
Emerging from a lingering sleep, the marmot waddled to a nearby creek. With both arms out, and empty palms, he embodied himself with the waterfall. After a few thoughtful minutes, he faltered off to recollect. Regretting everything. "Wake me! Unlike you, I've got much to do." Chasing the sun as his mind wandered on, not after long, when the moon approached his lawn: "Wake me! Unlike you, I've got much to lose." Instead of remaining in routine, he finally decided to do something.

Personality 02:18
Personal to me, my personality - I, Ty. Only just a youngen. Always holding Jung in mind. Collectively, we seek and find. When we think of archetype, no idea if it is right. But even still, can't help it. I'm always searching for the insight. My shadow lurks behind me. Subconscious urge of yearning for myself. But what is self to myself? And who is self? And here I stand in the sun. Settled to learn what's going on. Actualize our presence and realize this gift. Unsure who sent this gift, but thanks.

Moon 02:19
I found myself at the top of a hill - clouds surrounding my view more than I'm used to. Behind, rays incandesce softly, so I grabbed the moon. Holding by the crescent, I see the view of my old house, back in my hometown - Xander and Rico playing about. Cook-outs or cook-ins, we always shout, and we're excited. Yeah, we're excited! Cuz we've got lots of options. I see the view of where we came from. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Unsure of the mess we made, pushed the dirt then we'd just ignite it. Less conflict than crisis, less crisis than loving. We're holding on to what is strong. AW SHIT BUDDY I'm on your side. You've got my back, we're alright. And when it's tough, I know we'll make it through again. No one more times - infinite on my mind - and getting those parts of life where we find our spirit is high, and almost every night, with lucid sights into the morning sunrise.
5.
Wasting my own time with little pockets full of time. Patience little soul, I'll have you know that I'm equipped with temporal freezers. Let us enjoy the scene. Inside you's another, taking your sleep. // Did you know you do the thing that you do all while doo-doo-dooo-do-doing the whole mile? And I got some news, that I like your mind, and you've brought more insight to mine. My worldview expands another time.

Last Night 02:02
Last night, you kept me up til 3 AM. In my bed, I'm tucked and dressed with you stuck in my head. Even when I'm thinking that I won't fall asleep, I wake up every time with you inside my mind. So I'm sleeping on leaving my bed, cause I can't. I've not much to do. I'm still stuck in you. Boxed myself again, so I guess I'll just pretend. What am I to do but stay in bed with you in my head?

about

A compilation of songs intended to help boost the Spring atmosphere, sprinkled with a couple moody goodies!

DO NOT PURCHASE UNLESS IT IS ON JULY 3RD:
All of our proceeds will be sent to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the support of interracial equality and the fight against police brutality. We highly recommend not purchasing our EP as Bandcamp takes a percentage of our earnings.

The day to purchase would be either today (June 5th) or July 3rd, when bandcamp is waiving all of their revenue share. June 5th and July 3rd are the days to purchase anything from us.

Until then, please consider donating to a charity of your choice, or one of the ones we have on this list.
