Hello spintunes! How ya doin?

this song has a bit of a funny story actually, when I was starting the song my dad actually heard the song in his dream while he was sleeping, when he woke up he asked what the song was called but I didn’t have a name for it and that’s when he told me that he literally heard what I was making while he was friggin dreaming, and that’s why theres that lyric of the song of your dreams in my deep sleep.

The song itself is about the people in school grounds or just out on the street playing loud as hell music in the open like other people just don’t exist, so – yeah there you go

Have fun

lyrics

[yall call this a verse right?]
the song of your dreams, played so loudly in the streets
the people around, are so much louder than they should be
i wonder how you're so damn loud yet unaware about who's around
gotta wonder why you set the volume so. god. DAMN.

[chorus]
HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH!!!
keep it doooooooooooooooow!!

(funny bleepy interlude)

[i honestly dont really care what you call it, im calling it steve.]
the song of your dreams, plays even in my deep sleep
theres so much around, i cant keep up with anything
i wonder how you're able to sound so optimistic yet so down
gotta wonder why you made your voice so. GOD. D A M N.

[chorus]
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUD!!!!
keep it dooooooooooooooown!!
why's the volume HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH?
keep it dooooooooooooooooown!!!!!!!!!!!

CAN YA TURN IT DOWN ALREADY!? JESUS CHRIST-
