Your Friend, Ghost – Cages

One more amazing song by Your Friend, Ghost.

Artist about the track:

Cages swingy off-timed piano, drums, and percussion loops, serve to take the listener for a unique ride. Beautiful flute melodies, pulsing keyboards, and intricate drum arrangements can be heard echoing through the grooving caverns of this mystifying Chill-Hop adventure. The song bumps so hard, it’s almost hard to tell that this tale is actually about the evils of man. A reflection on the modern horrors of the world, from “re-education centers”, children in cages and the global climate crisis, to being away from the ones we love, Your Friend, Ghost wonders what it would look like to be somewhere different, somewhere better. “Looking Kinda broken, some are feeling homesick, because they’ve been taken, far away from what they’ve known.”

LYRICS:

We’re looking kinda broken
Some are feeling homesick
Because they've been taken
Far away from what they've known
You say the key is to keep on holding on
That shit dont make no sense when you've heard it before
And I don't know where I am
What's even scarier is I don't know where you are
As things fall apart
The key they say is to keep on holding on
To keep on
Do what we can
To shield from harm
Is it the will of god
Or the hands of something stronger?
Man has got super powers
And it turns out that he wants to kill the world
It didn't start like that
No one alive that can recall though
Probably tell a different story
And you can blame it on nostalgia
Looking kinda broken
Some are feeling homesick
Cause they've been taken
Far away from what they've known
Say the key is to keep on holding on
Well that shit don’t make no sense when you've heard it before
I don't know where I am
But what's even scarier is I don't know where you are
As things they fall apart
The key they say is to keep on holding on
