Lyrics

never thought (tribute)

[Skit]

We bring each other balance

And our children bring us balance

And they bring us joy

Before we moved in here

We have always had our [?] look like this

We used to living like this with our [?]

There is a song we wrote for her years ago

There are songs we have written for her, um, reincarnation

That is, um, sunshine

This is, the sun will shine on you some day

The clouds will break tomorrow

I want you to step forward, no more fears

No more tears, oh

Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE build something bigger than a collaboration

Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE build something bigger than a collaboration

There’s been plenty of crossover between Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE over the years, but ‘POMPEII // UTILITY’ is where it all clicks into place. Built with SURF GANG and stretched across a double album, it captures two artists doing exactly what they want, exactly how they want to do it.
