The Awakening
Bit-Max Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Laid my head down just to wake into
Unfamiliar but friendly faces
That share the disconsciousness we live in
Grain and dust from smashing jade idols
Everybody figured Milo's kind of suicidal
But that's an outgrown tendency
Farmer tan forearm whining about centipedes
And shit-stained dungarees
I wanna make a thing with my bare hands
Listen to rare bands on headphones that cover my whole ear
Using old gear, disappeared for a whole year
I was hoping you'd forgot about me
Shut the fuck up and let's commence rabble-rousing
It's Mycroft Holmes writing Zoloft poems
For Pharoah Sanders and Sun Ra
Bone marrow dandruff lockjaw
I am not immune to calamities
In tune but only when it's GrandTune
I've seen so many places
Laid my head down just to wake into
Unfamiliar but friendly faces
That share the disconsciousness we live in
To the friends that I haven't even met yet
Real nice to meet you
Let's get all of the hugs and hard goodbyes out of the way
And thanks for all of your hospitality and sorry for the pranks
Good times, call me J.J. Walker
Off to the next town to maintain progress
Meet new faces and maintain contacts
See new places, create new bar tabs
Next time around we'll tell inside jokes
And reminisce about the last time we spoke
Man, it's been a long time since the last time I've seen you
Let's try and make this a reoccurring thing dude
Every place on the planet will have Heir Max on the face of it branded
Except for the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic
I've seen so many places
Laid my head down just to wake into
Unfamiliar but friendly faces
That share the disconsciousness we live in
I've seen so many places
Laid my head down just to wake into
Unfamiliar but friendly faces
That share the disconsciousness we live in
In Bit-Max's song "The Awakening," the first verse talks about the experiences of traveling and the disoriented feeling of waking up in a new place, but finding comfort in the kind faces around. The line "share the disconsciousness we live in" suggests that despite the differences in language, culture, and beliefs, we all live in a shared state of confusion and uncertainty, which we must find a way to navigate.
The second verse is a reflection on the artist's personal growth and journey towards self-discovery. He references his past struggles with self-harm ("Milo's kind of suicidal"), but hints at his growth and evolution ("outgrown tendency") through his appreciation for the simple things in life, like farmer's markets and rare music. The line "I am not immune to calamities" acknowledges that despite one's progress and understanding of oneself, life can still be unpredictable and difficult.
The final verse is a message of gratitude to the people the artist has met along the way, and his desire to continue to build connections and travel the world. The line, "Every place on the planet will have Heir Max on the face of it branded," suggests the artist's ambition to leave a mark on the world through his music and travels.
Overall, "The Awakening" represents a journey towards self-discovery, growth, and gratitude for the connections made along the way.
