about

This track was initially intended to be a part of my upcoming EP, but after the passing of my dad earlier this year and the experience of laying him to rest - it took on new meaning about life, debt and ancestry.

Here are some thoughts:

To exist is to be born into debt.

Life and existence do not belong to us, but to all of humanity to which we belong and to ignore this – or to try and clear ourselves of it, is to rob ourselves of our critical agency.
