This record’s about the struggles of an artist in their search for inspiration during their really intense creative rut. This artist tries everything to bring it back, only to end up back in the same place and repeating the cycle. In the end, the artist turns introspective and asks themselves “what keeps you burning?”. After escaping the creative rut, this struggle ironically was able to become a song in itself.
lyrics
what is it that i need?
changin' the air i breathe
look around, find that beat
runnin' 'round, up on my feet
takin' my time, repeat
what is it that i need?
pushin' out every lead
lone wolf couldn't compete
might be outta their league
never mind, follow my lead
what keeps you burnin', burnin', burnin'
look around, find that beat
takin' my time, repeat
never stop movin', movin', movin'
lone wolf couldn't compete
never mind, folow my lead
what keeps you burnin', burnin', burnin'
find your way at the end of june
never stop movin', movin', movin'
look both ways before coming through
