hi everyone!
This is THROWED! 2.0: a song between me (remcycles) and BadAlphabet. This song originated as a beat idea and reference track that I was just playing around with. I loved the drums and the hook of the bassline and i began sharing it around and played it in the Outsider Collective discord one day. BadAlphabet hopped into the VC and asked me to send it over. We had linked a few times and i loved how his voice sounded live so I was pretty down off the bat. He then sent me the verse and dubs you hear here and I was in awe. I thought everything locked in perfectly and from there the rest is history. Went and added in some bass towards the end on top of the harmonies throughout the song.
For the artwork, BadAlphabet created the work and did an absolutely fantastic job (i didn't know he was a graphics goat until he sent this over lmao) so I thank him extremely for his pen-work, both on and off the mic.
This is the first collab where i'm featuring someone and featuring more of my voice which is a big, huuuuuuge step for me. Not altering my voice to hide it and displaying that all parts of my voice are beautiful, not just the deep ones.
To the collectors of this piece, you get to join the backstage pass into the journey of remcycles. I have a private instagram that will never be unlocked and will only be accessible (for now) through this token or if you have collected one of my 1/1s on Catalog. My musical journey is an experiment of how close and intimate I can get with the people who enjoy my music. I don't want to live as your favorite artist who you barely see through the sea of algorithm. I don't want you to only know me through twitter spaces or someone's retweets. I want you to be able to voice your opinion on a future career step without having to join a DAO. My art serves to show people it's okay to get close, be unique, be intricate, and be yourself. Especially around the people who truly love and support you. So enjoy the song and I hope to catch you on IG!
Lyrics:
If you know you’re tired
Why you go back to him?
Now you’re high and wasted
You’re throwed
If you know you’re tired
Why you go play pretend?
Sick and tired of wasting
Your soul
You chose to go back
Em, yo bad
Should’ve walked off
He walkin on ya like a door mat
I hope you know that
Bag lady
got too much in yo bag
lighten up yo load and
Get some more love
and More laughs
And More you….
Less him, less tears, it’s old news
If it ain’t beneficial then it’s artificial
Like them tabs and liquor
got ya twisted, temporary gimmicks
Morning after you don’t even love you
I know I barely know ya
I know it’s wearin on ya
I pray you look inside and see all of that glow that’s on ya
He feel familiar, that don’t mean he for ya
I know ya tired of wastin time
just going through the motions
The grass is greener on that other side
Hop the fence and see just what it’s like
You know that situation wasn’t right
wasnt cool, Wasn’t you
Bunch of lies
Kill that shit and come alive, yeah
If you know you’re tired
Why you go back to him?
Now you’re high and wasted
You’re throwed
If you know you’re tired
Why you go play pretend?
Sick and tired of wasting
Your soul
