Ahhh, this song is the last song I am making at my childhood home; I'm now moving to dorm at my college. I'll come back home on weekends but this is like, last song before I leave for college vibes.
My friends and I have been trying to hang out a lot more before everyone leaves for their colleges. We always say "see you Thanksgiving" when we drop them off because, well literally we won't see them until then. I wanted to make one last song that would capture the feeling of entering a new chapter in life, as well as how scary and surreal it might feel.
I haven't made a song in a while because I wasn't able to think of any guitar progressions, but my friend made one for me and thanks to him, I was able to crank out this song like a beast. I used my new Akai MPK mini for the synth part and my Roli for the beat; I wanted to incorporate new sounds and beats, and just make the song a bit different and improved from my other songs.
l'll see you next thanksgiving
When we’re older and feel different
I'm always watching always hoping
That things could stay the same but I know
We could outgrow this life
We can lose it leave it behind
Hasn't quite hit me yet
that it's actually the last time
I'm taking off these pictures on the wall
and putting them away in this box
And I can't help but be scared
That I'm leaving this unprepared
Thought we'd be always together
I learned that it's never forever
Always but never forever
l'll see you next thanksgiving
When we’re older and feel different
I'm always watching always hoping
That things could stay the same but I know
l'll see you next thanksgiving
When we’re older and feel different
I'm always watching always hoping
That things could stay the same but I know
I know
I know
I know
got me crying
