You got me chasing you in circles If you’re leading, I’m always going to follow. You’ve had me on hold for a while You took my insides and left me hollow. But why do I still stay, when you’re the one who left me? But why do I still stay, when you’re the one who left me? The pain will go away Away someday Will you wait for me? The pain will go away Away someday Will you wait or leave? I’ve been trying to let go, But you’ve made it difficult. It’s impossible to fix What you’ve already broke. But why do I still stay, when you’re the one who left me? But why do I still stay, when you’re the one who left me?

Fly me away to a distant place Where I can erase Where we’re not all chased by time I can’t remember why I tried to simplify Those times I fell in line From Paris to Beijing Where sunlight can chase me My mind can go racing But time will evade me soon I still can’t catch the moon Is it worth reporting my recent actions with rapping and recording? Show you I enjoy it Forewarning rap game, Dexter Morgan Throughout my dope performance you know I yearn for the kill Too bad my competition is late to realize I got skills Shove off a dumb subordinate trying to check out what I’m sporting Times are hard and I’m slacking to see what is important It’s a pain to choose between skateboading and kick pushing these verses Many different versions Making your life worth it Never about the burner I’m just trying to learn you something Don’t care much for assumptions I know someday the struggle will all be worth it Till then this I’m certain I won’t stop until they close my curtains You ask me right now what’s my purpose? You answer calm not nervous Choosing me over the posers is my main focus Got me floating Too bad that you just now noticed Claiming you all know us The look up on your face shows you been mad since we showed up Fly me away to a distant place Where I can erase Where we’re not all chased by time From Paris to Beijing Where sunlight can chase me My mind can go racing But time will evade me soon I still can’t catch the moon

about

INSCRIBE is Elias Abid’s first self-released 5-song EP. INSCRIBE features pumping arpeggiated bass synths, unique high polys, and heavy hitting upbeat drums while still incorporating a tasteful blend of melodic piano compositions and occasional washed out vocals. The EP is a seamless mix between French pop, astro-trap, and chill wave- creating an overall energetic electronic vibe.

The EP also features Dolly Avenue, Rylie Brown and Le$ Paul, all up and coming artists from the Kansas City area. Each song honestly represents the featured artist’s individual tastes and aesthetics, bringing a very diverse sound throughout the EP as a whole. From the empty sensations of loss, to the hopeful pursuit of self liberation, INSCRIBE reflects the inner anxieties faced by all artists striving for success.
