A poetic song, telling the story of someone sacrificing their family in order to obtain fame.

No surprise here--this song is about battling mental illness, and how it can absolutely shake-up one's life. The song is contemplative but aggressive, an anthem of venting against the illness while encouraging others to keep fighting. It also dives into the difficulty of normal life and how hard it can be to communicate with others who don't struggle the same way. Ultimately, there is always hope--even when you fall--and the strength you need is never as far away as it seems.

The title of this song captures its essence. Sometimes you have to leave behind those who only see what they think of you instead of who you are. But sometimes, that also means they never notice when you've disengaged, much less when you've departed. It can take a confrontation to find any consolation, but DYKIBG is about the break-away that needs to happen before reconciliation can be realized.

Elder is a poetic perspective on a young person's connection to an older relative. The language is vague but very intentional, seeking to capture a sobering phase of life that's nigh-impossible to replicate once you leave it. The words encourage you to experience them slowly and consider what they're saying before they're gone--just like the kind, loving elders we all hopefully have in our own lives.

The year of 2020 was supposed to be big, full of potential, a time of improvement! What everyone received instead was large doses of isolation, uncertainty, and excessive quiet. History in the Making is about that time--doing as much as possible yet never enough, while contemplating the unique, historic nature of those days.
