Is the track Dead Cities a prophecy of the world to come?
It is more about my past actually. Basically referring to when I began my journey out west. I was frustrated with the way things worked in the system and unhappy with my experiences in the city of Toronto. Beyond a few really good friends in the city there was nothing but a struggle for me there and the same for other cities I had lived in prior. There is a line in the song where I am speaking in third person as though somebody else is talking about my disappearance and they mention that it was weird that before I left I destroyed all of my art and this line actually happened to some degree. I recall a few days before I left I brought four full sketch books of drawings and rhymes that I had over to a friends bon fire in his backyard and I lit them all ablaze. It was a significant and symbolic moment for me as it was truly like a sacrifice of my art to get to a better place and move forward with not only my life but with my art as well. I couldn’t help but notice Thesis Sahib is absent
