I wouldn’t say I’m broken but more like slightly damaged Thru the trials and tribulations that I’ve had to manage Put on a strong showing but still showing savage Tendencies that’s homicidal that I’ve had to balance Against the inner peace that the inner beast wants to challenge Dominance from the dormancy in the silence Waking up to tape hiss noise floor matrix Fluid is the movement as I wake up to take a piss Footsteps in the dark that gets muffled by the carpet stoned is the way of the walk as I spark this The darkness embraces me as I halfheartedly squeeze back in vacancy even the emptiness escapes me And makes me start acting out in desperation And the cracks start to show in this facade I’m facing Going wild out with any plaything yet the loneliness is cold in this bed I’m making The drive home is uninhabited Even when the city doesn’t sleep In a cement lined desert isle the eyes have it I feel it from a distance as they peep The streets left uninhabited Even when the city doesn’t sleep In a cement lined desert island the eyes have it I feel it from a distance as they peep Deep in the abyss I don’t speak it’s as secretive as this Even if freakin the beat I walk it like a dick Private eyes always watching this Can u feel it? Diggin layer by layer til it reveals The way they aggregate that aggravates the average make and models a system that can evaporate as a last mistake Right into the ether or either way it masticates And spits you out faster than you can masturbate grease lighting acetate Heat type action meets warp speed factor 8 The drive home is uninhabited Even when the city doesn’t sleep In a cement lined desert isle the eyes have it I feel it from a distance as they peep The streets left uninhabited Even when the city doesn’t sleep In a cement lined desert island the eyes have it I feel it from a distance as they peep

about

Directly influenced by the rising pandemic in 2020, Streets Left Uninhabited explores the isolation one finds in a crowded metropolitan area. Described as "upbeat melancholy" by some, the production features a latin influenced rhythm teamed up with layered synth soundscapes that make the perfect backdrop for L. Scatter's unorthodox bars.
