Lyrics:
(Kevin Abstract)
I think it's my friend
Or is it a thief
You ain't been discreet
This ain't a new theme
Mistakes crack open the fruit
I birthed a thousand trees

(Lev)
I can’t see who’s hiding in the weeds
I think he’s my friend, he could be a thief
You ain’t being discrete
I’m out on the street again

Heaven is an island that's not far away from here
Right behind both of my eyelids, in between both of my ears
Natural forces keep on smiling, casting spells made out of tears
A charming man who goes the distance, tries to be a puppeteer
Tries to control every motion, has to always interfere
Baby let it go, let it go

Once in a lifetime, it’s radical
Sparks fly, irrational
Watch it all burn to the floor, irrational

Don't let it go if you think you have it
Don’t let it go, hold it with a passion
Smoke and mirrors got you looking at distractions
Even though it’s got you hoping that it’s magic

I'm under a spell, with tunnel visions
Nobody to help these superstitions
It's hard to tell, nobody listens

(Lev)
I can’t see who’s hiding in the weeds
I think he’s my friend, he could be a thief
You ain’t being discrete
I’m out on the street again

Park that car
Drop that phone
Sleep on the floor
Dream about me

Once in a lifetime, it’s radical
Sparks fly, irrational
Watch it all burn to the floor, irrational

Don't let it go if you think you have it
Don’t let it go, hold it with a passion
Smoke and mirrors got you looking at distractions
Even though it’s got you hoping that it's magic

    When Chaz said "park that car, drop that phone...." my jaw dropped.....
  • @GeoffGorman08
    "So what type of music do you make? Like what style or genre?" Chaz: "Yes."
  • @RuddGerrath
    That Broken Social Scene verse gave me chills
  • @sayday15
    Hitting us with that broken social scene verse moody as hell . ❤🥳
  • @csofolo
    Anthems for a Seventeen Year-Old Girl, yes please. Nostalgia in FULL EFFECT. 🖤
  • @user-xn4xw9yv5v
    Reminds me of when I used to ride my bike alone as a kid in my neighborhood as the sun was setting. It’s a beautiful song.
  • @NotaBOTopie
    Toro y Moi is the artist that I recommend like 100% of the time. He ticks off all the boxes to all my favorite genres especially when you listen to Les Sins as well
  • @bluetreacle
    i love toro y moi, but it always seems like he's on the egde of making something spectacular. he has the ability to be one of the biggest around, but never seems to cross that line fully. i think he knows he could make bangers that go around the world, but chooses to make what he wants. i respect that.
  • @borp6912
    Back in like 2006 Chaz was handing out cd-rs of his music for free to people outside of a Broken Social Scene show at the Music Farm in Charleston, SC. The guy knew what he wanted and never stopped ♥
  • @rochakgupta6116
    Possibly the closest a song you have made in such a long time that captures the same feeling as your initial hits. This is so awesome.
  • @Guilhemax
    Insanely good, nostalgic toro will always be my favorite. It kinda evokes some boo boo and underneath the pine feeling but with the modern trap and rap sound of today
  • @1978januarygarnet
    This song is spanning generations in the comments right now in this common feeling that it evokes: nostalgia and now all at the same time. Love seeing this and I love that you inspired it to happen.
  • @ARPorganics
    At work taking lunch break. Decided to share it with my beautiful sunflower. What a vibe.
  • @minamadeit
    This tickles my brain in the best way.
  • @adonai3676
    The collab I've truly been waiting for all these years
  • @NNox_
    C'est fantastique. Merci. Love from France
  • @kaleb4256
    Nice Broken Social Scene reference!
