about

Around the time of this song I was struggling to make ends meet creatively & felt as if I was running out of passion & excitement for what I was doing.
I came to the conclusion that I was trying to approach things back to front, trying to "build a planet with no core".
It was actually my Mum who said I had to stop trying to "Do it all yesterday" & it was at this point I realized I would never attempt to exploit or manufacture myself in future.

lyrics

Lately I’ve been working, on building a planet with no core.
The architects just warned me, he said, It’s gonna collapse and leave me with just rubble to mourn.

It’s a, hard lesson but I know, I have to stop...

Doing it all yesterday.

Summer sun goes down, winter air moves in.
No fight or contest they sync, and I, need to move with and within.

It’s a, awakening now I know, I have to stop...

Doing it all yesterday.
