Lyrics
Too many people crashing Too many people crashing
Obsession, obsession, obsession Obsession, obsession, obsession
How I need it (I wouldn't change it) How I want it (I wouldn't change it) How I need it (I wouldn't change it) How I want it (for the world)
Obsession, obsession, obsession Obsession, obsession, obsession Obsession, obsession, obsession Obsession, obsession, obsession

A sold-out North American tour follows next month in support of the album.
Seven albums deep, James Blake is no longer chasing chart positions or fire-emoji approval. 'Trying Times' finds him back in London and unafraid to confront capitalism, celebrity culture and his own ambition, delivering a record that's both deeply personal and politically awake.
James Blake performed Bob Dylan's 'Three Angels' with Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet on SNL, accompanying the actor on piano.
The track was made of Endel AI, which, according to its website, makes “personalized soundscapes to help you focus, relax, and sleep.”.
