Its Important To Get Good Sleep
Song: "16 19 20suum"
Artist: Mimic
Story: Being recklessly innocent, mindlessly adaptive then finally, self aware. These are all the changes, if I dare call them changes at all, that sufficed amongst the pivotal ages of sixteen, nineteen & um, twenty-*whatever i am now*. The song came to my head a metaphor & exited as its own baggy jean wearing, hypocritically brained juvenile, diving off the roof of my mouth & into a pool of desire, with absolutely NO parental supervision. I made the gooey instrumental moments after drinking one too many cups of burnt coffee & not enough hours of dream-soaked sleep. Placed between a feeling of comfort & complete nakedness, my vocals explain the story of my everlasting youth. I sing, "Baggy jeans & a t-shirt I was like sixteen in the bleachers, then I turned nineteen & my feet hurt, now I'm bout twenty-*something* looking at the world like it owes me something". This; ridiculously catchy, hook, quietly sums up the feelings that I felt at the most monumental moments in my life. At sixteen years old I allowed the role of an outcast to transform into my cape. I look back on the days in high school when I finally called for my art to become an extension of myself & smile at the victory of a radiant confidence that was born. At nineteen, nearly three years later, after all of the necessary experimentation & unnecasary friendships; I see myself tired, yet ready for whats ahead. I become myself & all but what I had never been before. I trudge down the all too familiar streets of the "I dont know's" & the "Have not's". At twenty it was tattooed on the mirror before my eyes. I was me. But whats to show for it if I feel the world that I've birthed can not yet see what I see ? I guess we still have just a little bit left to wait. The song is an ode to myself yet an anthem to those who still seek that certain reassurance. I believe that the song, though built with certain purpose, can be molded to whatever it is the listener sonically & spiritually seeks. Often two things that go hand in hand. Whatever your age & wherever your brain, always whisper yourself to sleep in an experimental version of your favorite childhood lullaby. Its important to get good sleep.
