about

this song and its music video were made in a day. it's a simple tune about rediscovering playfulness, built around a sample from an old reading assessment record. hope you enjoy. you can watch the music video here: youtu.be/-tpTKBFHpPk

lyrics

you got older
you got tired
you got weary
and now you're wired
like a machine
that runs on impatience and deadlines

you gave in
to the rush
and the waves of mistrust
you've got a million thoughts in your brain
but now it's time to play

remember your play
remember you wild
remember yesterday when you were just a child
remember your play
remember your play
remember your play

you've got a job
a role to play
you've got a boss
but not today
right now it's just you
whatever you wanna be
so why not be free?

remember your play
remember your wild
remember yesterday when you were just a child
remember your play
remember your play
remember your play
