► LYRICS:
pushing and peeling myself out of my disguise
looking at you now i am wondering who am i
if i could try to take you back i couldn't define
feeling
absence of time
knowing
all is decided
there's nothing
here left to find
the story's all in my mind
pushing and peeling the layers
that cover my mind
looking into the shadow
now i notice the light
magic is real
when you see it inside
you decide
it's like a snake shedding skin
creating
life to begin and all you know has vanished again
transcending
virtue and sin
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things
when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things
when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
yeah
gotta decide how we’re gonna feel it
i am trying to find out
gotta know
that life is fragile
gotta know
but
gotta go
i stood in awe
inside a temple
of a god i didn't know
wanna go
find the one
who understands
why we wait for pain to change us
to let me know
that life is fragile
it's like a turtle in sand
making
way to the ocean
almost
meeting the end
because the
birds are in motion
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things
when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
feast my eyes on lower things
while beauty is a symptom of life
gotta decide if i'm gonna see it
why
feast our eyes on lower things when suffering is craving the light
gotta decide how we’re gonna heal it
why
yeah
gotta decide how we’re gonna feel it
i am trying to find out

WILLOW is so creative with her musical direction, but we're not giving enough credit to her producers for the amazing instrumentals
-
THANK YOU for reminding the world that catchy songs can have musical complexity, and reminding music geeks that complex music can still be catchy.
-
this song is an absolute masterpiece. I am beyond shook
-
To whoever is listening to this song now, wherever you are.... Sending you love, peace, healing and all good wishes. May your life be good❤

she's got the type of talent that will allow people to forget her family tree and just indulge in her art. rare considering she is who she is.
-
The alt/pop rock, r&b and jazz influences on this track are so crazy it’s like sounds from all her best songs from her best era’s MASTERPIECE

She literally just laid there and it was incredible.

Did not think id arrive at a point in life where i wanna hear a 3way collab between willow, paramore and jill scott
-
I love that she's in a space where she can be a real ARTIST.

Honestly, I think this is the best song I've heard so far this year. When I saw it was Willow Smith, I had to do a double take - but that's my fault I guess for being ignorant of her music - I had no idea she was so gifted. Looking forward to seeing what else she has made if this is anything to go by.
-
