These heavy eyes
we’ve been trying
to hold our hearts up
just because
it's too easy
to let them fall down
I can’t stand for it
anymore
there’s just been a lot of lying
and I’m trying hard
to see the control in nothing
like aren’t you getting tired of fighting?
there’s really nothing left for us to uncover
yeah I could feel it now
its too close to my heart
I can’t give it back
oh no
yeah I could feel it now
its too close to my heart
I can’t give it back
little lover
ain’t no other way
I ain’t gonna let you down
there won’t come a time
little lover
ain’t no other way
I ain’t gonna let you down
no
we spend too much time in doubt
it's time we start breathing
barely alive
some days are easy
I'm losing focus
like some other time
used to feel easy
we’d barely notice
there’s just been a lot of lying
and I’m trying hard
to see the control in nothings
like aren’t you getting tired of fighting?
there’s really nothing left for us to uncover
don’t start crawling back
babe you're too good
please stop stop all that crying
oh no
yeah I could feel it now
its too close to my heart
I can’t give it back
little lover
ain’t no other way
I ain’t gonna let you down
there won’t come a time
little lover
ain’t no other way
I ain’t gonna let you down
no
we spend too much time in doubt
it's time we start breathing
too much time in doubt
it's time we start

The last 5 years I've rolled around in what I call Doomtree creative silk sonic hugs, I've been inspired to produce, mix and sometimes driven to emotional tears at how amazing their music is. "Dear echo" is no exception. The moment Cecil throws down the female vocal sample in 'Beauty' is perfect. I actually get lumps in my throat sometimes when I listen.
Real poetry and music created for true feeling, not just to hit the charts. When I discuss music and people use "rap" to describe the deteriorating popular music scene, I correct them with music like this. Jonathan Malkin
