Lust (feat. Grim Steez)

about

I had a really hard time trying to figure out the best way to approach the style of this track. I assumed that this was going to be one of the easier songs to create on the album, but the process to start it was a constant back and forth. I went through a lot of different trial and error WIP’s and scrap lyrics trying to figure out which direction I wanted to take the song in, but definitely looked to ‘The Weeknd’s’ music for inspiration while creating this. I finally sat down one night and made it, and it ended up coming together faster than any song I had ever created. This single is important to me because it gives an amazing depiction of a Mantra Sounds x Grim Steez collab. The album as a whole was a great interpretation of the collab project but this song specifically hones in on how the two work together as a pair. This song has definitely secured a spot for being one of my favorites on the album.

lyrics

Mad cause I said what you wanted to hear
You say I’m fucked up
Put some trust in your fear
She say I’m the devil
So she smudged and she smeared
But she can’t stay away
So I sip on her tears
She asks my intentions
But my message unclear
Cause I don’t say much
Cause it’s not that severe
Sip on champagne
Under glass chandeliers
And you can’t wear my mink
So just sit and adhere


No one wants to be
I know you know she feels
So don’t try to get
In a world of awe

This is lusts depiction
(This is lust)
I don’t mean to fall a victim
Love just don’t concern me
When I’m under these conditions
I've been up for three days
I've been assuming all positions
(I been assuming all)
Tell me kick her out whenever
Guess it’s time for a decision

Mad cause I said what you wanted to hear
You say I’m fucked up
Put some trust in your fear
She say I’m the devil
So she smudged and she smeared
But she can’t stay away
So I sip on her tears
