Our friend from the Bronx FYÜTCH wakes us up with a start, bringing us a hopeful song about starting a brand new day, and a more pensive track reflecting on the past. Both soulful bops are produced by the ever prolific Drainpuppet, her synths elevating FYÜTCH's emotional vocal work.
lyrics
I just woke up
Everything is looking so much brighter
Thankful that I made it thru the night I
I Just woke up
Jumped up out the bed an early riser
Blessed to see the sun on the horizon
Bout to sieze the day like carpe diem
Gotta be the reason I'm still breathing
I just woke up
Yesterday I thought I wouldn't make it
Saddens filled that space that was vacant
Emptiness. From loneliness and my heart couldnt take
Try to put a smile on but I couldn't fake it
Reaching out to my friends no one answered the phone
Somebody help I don't trust myself when I'm all alone
Searching for peace, but that shit was gone
All that's left was looking at my life and wondering what went wrong
But then I dug deep cuz it hit me weeping just endure for the night
If i can make it to the sunlight then I might be alright
Wishing on a star and close my eyes my eyes
Then I might be aight
This verse dedicated to my special one
Since you came into my life been a blessing
But it seem like we both got our demons
You deal with Anxiety attacks and depression
I try to be the one to make the pain go
When you feel stuck and you feel low
Thinking no one cares and you stuck in thoughts
In the prison of your mind shackles won't come off
But I'm right here - and I'll always be
feel my embrace spiritually
I pray for myself I pray for you
On my knees asking God to guide you through
When it seem endless the world seem friendless look around and all you see is darkness
We gon beat
we gon treat this
Like we got victory Lord is my witness
After the words fail me
And nothing anyone can tell me
No advice can help me
Only one thing can cure
