As far as title tracks on an album go, I'm really proud of this one. Tied the whole project together.

As the mind goes so goes the body. The body is a temple. The devil's in the lobby.

I should have named the song Keep Paddling and put I tell myself in parenthesis if that makes sense.

I should make a video for this song but it will take at least a year to accrue enough footage. You've been warned.

The cadence and the time signature of this song is not in my comfort zone but still very much in my wheel house if that makes sense.

I needed a song on that album that explained the reason for the timing of the album. Then I needed a do over lol.
