You reach for your phone. but why? Who knows? But you do. Stress from the previous week has snowballed to this point. What the hell is going on? You don’t want to think about it. You want out. Where you planned to scroll through your feed to see the latest brand of chaos, you instead open your favorite music app and slide into your favorite anti-anxiety playlist. There you go. Feel better? The therapeutic sound of music.

But where do these these 2-5 min packets of rhythms & grooves come from? These tunes of salvation don’t come from nowhere. Someone has to make them.

Past on Fire
Nov.47 Lyrics

The house that we built
No longer stands
We no longer have plans
We did what we had to do
Now it’s out of our hands
Let’s just leave while we can

Pour the gas (Gas)
Light a match (Match)
Ain’t no need in comin’ back (Nah)

Look ahead (Yeah)
Walk away (Come on)
You and me go separate ways
All the love (Love)
All the hate (Hate)
This is how we escape (Whoa)
Let it go (Go)
Let it be (Be)
Ain’t no more you and me

Past on fire
Future right on time
Won’t be comin’ back here no more
No desire
Leave it all behind
Cause I know, I know I done changed
Past on fire
Future on my mind
And I won’t be comin’ back here no more
Hope in time
That it will all align
And I know, I know I done changed

Take all this passion I have in my mind
Move it down to my heart (Sha-oop)
It used to be wasted on things unrefined
Used to tear me apart

Give ‘em up
Watch ‘em leave
All the things that used to be
Turn around
Take a step
Keep movin’ away from me
Give it love
Instead of hate
This is how we escape
Let it leave
Let it breath
This is how we break free

Past on fire
Future right on time
Won’t be comin’ back here no more
No desire
Leave it all behind
Cause I know, I know I done changed
Past on fire
Future on my mind
Won’t be comin’ back here no more
Hope in time
That it will all align
Cause I know, I know I done changed

Everything (Everything)
Seems to be tellin’ me not to be here
I hear a voice
Whispering
Tellin’ me this is not where I belong
Oh...

Oh, the love that we built (Whoo)
No longer stands
It’s been buried in the sands
A love that was never true (True)
It was just a romance
It just happened by chance

Pack it up (Up)
Send it off (Off)
We already paid the cost (Yeah)
Broken hearts (Hearts)
Broken dreams (Dreams)
Looks like we’ll never be (Ooh)
Let it fall (Fall)
Let it break (Break)
This is how we escape (Yeah)
Another step (Step)
Into the breeze (Through the breeze)
No need to disagree

Past on fire
Future right on time
I know it’s on time and I ‘ain't comin’ back here no more
No desire
Leave it all behind
‘Said I know, ‘said I know, I know I done changed
Past on fire
Future on my mind
I set it on fire ‘cause I won’t be coming back here no mo
Hope in time
That it will all align
Cause I know, I know I done changed

If you need somewhere to go
Just make sho it’s in the opposite direction of me
