about
This melodic track combines chill-hop, RnB, Hip-Hop and Trap influences to explore the places the mind goes in the December cold. Your Friend, Ghost partners with up and coming underground king of phonk, yobbz, and premiers a debut feature from Cam the Era Man on this last single to drop before the new year. Pondering the isolation brought by the newfound snow, these artists have ventured into the most vulnerable parts of themselves in order to compose. Your Friend, Ghost continues to explore new territory as ‘December’ highlights their use of lo-fi samples and bedroom-trap drums swirling with jazz influenced guitars, soaring flutes, and cryptic lyrics. The group remains true to their foundations and delivers a unique vocal performance, with instrumentals that are sure to stir up the existential dread inside each one of us music lovers.
lyrics
December
We go round and round
Like a roundabout
With no end in sight
Until we breaking down
Then we break it down
I hope I make it out
How we making out
When we aint making out
Shit I'm shaking now
I’m caving in now
I’m locked in my room puffin hazy clouds
Doors closed off forever
No lights coming in and no signs of the weather
No signs of human life that remind me of being together
My heart cold just like the winter air in December
So please just let me be like this
And let me shed my skin
And forget my sins
So I roll up another one and one more after that
And maybe then I’ll be able to forget my past
With a mind so numb and a twist so fat
Just let me go out like that
Don't know if I’m coming back
Don't know if I'm coming back
Don't know if I'm coming back
With a mind so numb
And a twist so fat
Don't know if I'm coming back
Don't know if I'm coming back
Don't know if I'm coming back
With a mind so numb
And a twist so fat
Don't know if I'm coming back
I've been told
To fear being alone
Don't wanna go far from home
And get caught in December snow
I don't know
Why it's so cold
And the things that we said
That we’d never forget
Are so hard to remember
Hit the gas I ain't coming down
All around people in the clouds
Turn up and get burnt then get swerved and get hurt
I beat up my own as i'm on my way home
To the grand enterprise
To see with real eyes
To realize when I’m wrong
To fight for this song
The hook, the book, of my life
The story I’m writing
The turned table burnt stables
We’re all running free
Too scared to believe in make believe
And I'm thankful for my friends
Cause they're helping me
Sitting here and I’m losing me to the land of identity
and all we can be
Don't know if I'm coming back
Don't know if I'm coming back
With a mind so numb
And a twist so fat
Don't know if I'm coming back
Don't know if I'm coming back
Don't know if I'm coming back
With a mind so numb
And a twist so fat
Don't know if I'm coming back
I've been told
To fear being alone
Don't wanna go far from home
And get caught in December snow
I don't know
Why it's so cold
The things that we said
That we’d never forget
Are so hard to remember
I've been told
To fear being alone
Don't wanna go far from home
And get caught in December snow
