Our first new music in almost two years. Thank you for sticking with us.

lyrics

God bless, God bless...
Cobblestone roads stamped on by a stencil.
Wallpapers patterned to look like an antique texture void of history.
Gated dead ends close off the side streets,

It all leads back to shopping centers, touchscreen skies.
I’m terrified that we’re in denial - but we love the lie.
Gucci’s got a take on an original thought!
Almost feels like one. The Venetian Hotel:

Can’t get lost or find a way out.
Blue-dyed channels, Coliseum slots, gift shops…shopping sprees for the meaning of life.
People in a maze tryna sell me “Outside”.

It all leads back to shopping centers, touchscreen skies.
I’m terrified that we’re in denial - but we love the lie.

Gucci’s gonna take on my hometown.
Gotta take to life in the Venetian Hotel

It leads back to the same intersection on repeat…meet delusion in the middle, buy myself in a marketing scheme, spreading thin, fleeting thrills…
…hush the dread that I live in a snowglobe.

Lie. Lie, like I lie. I’m terrified that we love the lie.

If I squint real hard the truth lets go; the ceiling gives way, and I can see the sky.

Let me live a lie, Venetian Hotels.
Let me live a lie, Venetian Hotels.
