Lyrics

"'brighter days' is a great example of a song that happened so organically. I met Bipolar Sunshine, who sings on the song, at Coachella. We really wanted to make music together, and a week later, we were cooking music in the kitchen of my AirBNB, like literally in the kitchen. Laptop on the kitchen table, speakers on the side. It was really funny, we recorded everything in the kitchen.

First I played this littlе loop I made:

(WIP)

So yeah, I played him that and hе really liked that and he started writing melodies and the words to it right away. I am very specific about lyrics. Some producers start off with lyrics, you know, that they get sent to them from other writers or publishers and then they built this song around the lyrics but for me it doesn't really work like that, I wanna do the music first, I wanna get a vibe with the music, a feeling with the music first and then write about the feeling that the music gives me. Which is, I think there's no right or wrong, it's just a different approach but that's my way of feeling really connected to the music. Otherwise, I just can't do it but luckily Bipolar and I were on the same page from the start. I think we wrote and recorded the song in two days, even though I worked on the drop for weeks-and-weeks-and-weeks, the writing of the song felt very organic.

To me, 'brighter days' is about reminiscing: Thinking about an old love and wondering if that same person does the same thing too from time-to-time. It's not a very sad song, I feel like it's more... I feel it's more like an optimistic song. Knowing that even though you might be sad about some things in your life right now, brighter days will come."
