Born in the small town of Englewood New Jersey, he relocated to the cultural melting pot of Toronto at a young age, and grew up surrounded by music ranging from jazz to rock and roll to rap, dancehall and r&b. He began playing guitar and piano in high school.

At 17, he relocated to Montreal, QC to attend university, and began working in nightclubs cleaning tables and DJing. He started writing music at this time, incorporating the unique blend of sounds he grew up surrounded by. He started experimenting with music production and rapping in 2013, and dropped out of school to relocate to Los Angeles and pursue music full time.

Adopting the Grandson moniker while living in LA, he dove deeply into rock influences such as Rage Against the Machine, Nirvana, and Led Zeppelin, while also listening to rap/R&B music emerging out of Toronto and alternative acts such as Twenty One Pilots and Hiatus Kaiyote. He found a small community of musicians to work and perform with here in Los Angeles. The live tries to create a frantic, mosh pit-inducing cathartic release of energy for concert-goers, influenced by early punk and grunge music.

Searching for his voice and for meaning in today’s divisive, chaotic world, Grandson confronts the most pressing issues of his generation through his songwriting, such as financial inequality, governmental and environmental accountability, and social justice, giving these topics a soundtrack with a genuine sense of urgency and frustration. The music also touches on adolescence, relationships, and the insecurities and difficulties of growing up through your 20s.

Overdose
Grandson Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was higher than the nosebleed, I
I turn up 'til my nose bleed, I
Blacked out in the black car
I was trying to feel like a rockstar, but
I can't just do one now, no
I've been way too numb now
I'm living on the run now
Oh I gotta get out of this town somehow

'Cause the bad's been slowly getting worse
And this fast lane living, it's a curse
Better tell me what's your life worth
I think it's time for a change
'Cause the bad's been slowly getting worse
And this fast lane living, it's a curse
Better tell me what's your life worth
I think it's time for a change

Anymore, anymore
Anymore, now the drugs don't work
Anymore, anymore
Anymore, now the drugs don't work

I couldn't find the fill again, I
Couldn't seem to kill the pain, I
I was living in the moment
Searching for a little serotonin
But, this shit ain't so fun now
I, can't tell what the come down
I've been living on the run now
Oh I gotta get out of this town somehow

Overall Meaning

In Grandson's song "Overdose", the lyrics describe the effects of drug abuse, particularly in the context of trying to escape from reality through substance use. The singer describes their experience of being "higher than the nosebleed" and trying to feel like a rockstar while living in the fast lane, but ultimately realizing that the drugs no longer work and that it's time for a change. The singer recognizes the negative impact of their drug use on their life, and acknowledges the need to get out of the toxic environment that they find themselves in.

The song highlights the destructive nature of addiction, and the toll that it takes on both the individual and their relationships. The lyrics also tackle the idea of escapism, and the dangerous cycle of using drugs to numb oneself from their problems, rather than facing them head-on. Overall, the song serves as a message to listeners to prioritize their mental health and seek help if needed, instead of turning to drugs as a solution to their problems.

All fun and games 'til I hit the floor comatose
The lifestyle of partying and addiction is not harmless and can lead to serious consequences, such as overdosing

I was higher than the nosebleed, I

[Spoken - Purdue Pharma Speaker]
There is no need for anyone to suffer in pain anymore

My dad raised me and my sister as a single father. He raised us telling us about his days before he was sober, always warning us and trying his best to keep us from making his mistakes with drugs. I was raised only knowing my sober father, he would do anything for us and loved us tremendously, and did it all by himself. Sadly, about 6 months after my highschool graduation he relapsed on drugs, it took almost another 6 months for me to find out. He promised to stay clean, but it's almost two years later. After being forced to move out, having my things stolen from his "Friends", people staying in what was my room, finding drugs in our basement, and multiple meaningful family items stolen and sold for drugs (including my Grandfathers silver star he got in the war, and my dead uncles guitar he left us, the only thing he left us), and so much money borrowed that I will never see again... I had to cut myself off from him, I love my dad so much but I miss the version that raised us and never would have lived how he does now. Drugs are not a joke, they ruin relationships, they ruin lives.

I'm going to be honest at first the song didn't really catch my attention because I just thought it was another song about doing drugs but the more I listened to the lyrics, I started to understand it. And then whenever I saw the music video it hit me pretty hard because I used to be that person and I've been clean for 4 years now but I sent this to my sister and told her everything that I was always trying to get out but couldn't find the word for on how I felt this put it in perspective everything I always wanted to say when I was doing it. My family always thought that I wanted to keep doing it but in reality I was trying to get out but when someone who hasn't touched it before tries to help you they don't realize how hard it is and they think it's easy. And now I'm trying to save my friend who's falling deeper and deeper and me and this kid have been through hell and back together and he is the one person I can pretty much call my brother because we grew up together and we were inseparable and now I'm watching him fall to this drug that's infested our country. I listen to this song every single day because it makes me feel like I can accomplish anything just because I got past that and if I can do that then what's to stop me from doing anything else? I developed the strength and the mind power to get out of it on my own with no rehab, no counseling, I didn't really have a lot of people there I decided to do this on my own just because I saw the pain that I was causing my girlfriend, my family and my friends and worst of all myself. I actually did overdose and the worst part was I was home alone that day and it happen as my mom pulled into the driveway, that should have been a wake up call itself but I continued to do it over and over and it wasn't until I blacked out one day totaled my car with the help of a semi truck before I realized that I needed to change my ways because that accident could have gone way worse. If you know anybody doing this or if you are doing drugs yourself take it from me it is hard and I understand because I was a user for many years but you can do it and believe me there are the people that fell down that same hole that you did and the ones who got out are the ones you need to turn to for help, I wouldn't recommend going to those who haven't even touched it because they can't even begin to understand your pain.

3 years sober now. I got a peep memorial tattoo when he passed because I related to him heavy. The only difference was his musical genius and I beat my demons before they beat me. Never judge addicts, or OD victims. They're someone's child. They are you or me, we are all one bad day from breaking. Have pity, offer support and love. People can only fix themselves if they want to and have the love or drive to do so. Rest in peace to those that couldn't beat their demons in time.

I used to always think that most pop and trap is just pure T R A S H, but grandson takes originality to a whole new level. With the amazing political messages he's trying to send mixed with his talent of music, it works so well. I like rock, but this is still perfect. Im only your average cringe child going to school, and this is the stuf i listen to. The thing that makes me like his music is the message, and thats important when it comes to music. I hope he gets some recognition cause he deserves it. Thanks for doing all you can to help make a america the TRUE dream.

Chris Farley. He was a comedian/standup comic/comedic actor. He died my senior year of high school, 1997. Used to enjoy his movies when I could get ahold of them. My mom was extremely anti any actor that did drugs to the point she wouldn't allow any movie they were in into our house.

When i first listened to this song, it felt so powerful to me. It got me really addicted to your music Grandson, and this video is just another reason to continue listening to your songs.
You spread awareness through a medium thats incredibly powerful to the minds of people, and i find that to be absolutely genius. Not only that, but your style of music and video production is incredibly inspiring. I love your music, and i hope you get more recognition Grandson.

I love that "anymore" sounds like "give me more" or "I need more"
It may have been an accident but it really shows how it feels to be an addict

I ran into Grandson after I stumbled upon Missio's album, last year.

Grandson is amazing sounds blended so well with the cerebral.

Overdose hits the nail on the head. Biggest issue of the day, that no one wants to talk about. This song/video should be played in every public square!

I cannot wait to hear what comes next, and next, and next! Keep pouring your heart into your music.

My brother is a recovering heroine addict and this song has really hit home for me. From his crashing his car into a telephone pole to being revived with narcan , twice, this song describes his struggles as an addict. Just being able to function enough to get that next high. That's all its about for them.
But its time for a change when you overdose,. 1 year sober now.

woke up in the hospital for the third time in a month. the doctors told me i should be dead, i was dead, it's a miracle im alive. a close female friend showed me this song that night, as i bought a sheet of acid from her, and whilst i explored the universe, rolling like a wave crashing against a cliff, this song kept playing. i dont know if it actually did, or if it was just the message from this song was all i could hear due to my recent frailties of the mind, but it changed my life. i got clean, and sobered up. stayed that way for the last two and a half years, and let me assure you, the results of spending your money on materialistic garbage, as opposed to literally playing with poison, is mind boggling. Everybody gets high, but not everyone has to die. i love you brothers, and sisters, and all those in between, i see you, and im proud of you for the efforts and the accomplishments those efforts have reaped for you

I remember at the age of 15 first trying meth and it felt like a whole new world of pleasure, love, comfort and freedom that everyone I felt was against. Then it lead to not caring what anyone had to say.( Parents, teachers, counseling, close friends I've know for years...... And even my own self) I did so much I should be dead or in a wheelchair or not mentally stable. Everyday I wish to dive even deeper into the abyss but I know I won't come out. I remember this one day absolutely fucked out of my spirit and looking for a song that would send me a spiritual message or something to help, and I found this song after 3-7 hours of music. It hit me so hard I don't know how to explain it.

Grandson, I wish I found you sooner. I found you from Billie Eilish. You are so so so great with you music and I have not found one song I do not like from you yet. You are SO incredible when it comes to making a song with a meaning behind it. Recently I found the love for music videos and when watching some of the videos artist post makes the song completely different. This video spoke to me and I had to re watch it three times. I'm eating breakfast and I cant eat anymore. I am in a health class right now in school learning about all of these drugs but the thing is, is when reading a packet about these drugs, they don't really hit you and make you think "oh shit, this is a REAL problem." Honestly every school that is taking a health class about drugs should start off with this song AND video! Kudos my dude! I am falling in love!
