about
With this song, Ike Peters is searching for closure; an answer to a question that has lingered since the world started falling apart - how do you make peace with the past that formed you when it's at odds with who you are today?
Ike teamed up with Sam Cohen (Kevin Morby, Benjamin Booker, Danger Mouse, Yellowbirds) to bring that search to life. Cohen’s layered textures beautifully underline the probing, tense, unresolved feelings of this anthem, with Ike's signature style in tow: earworm melodies, late-Beatles psychedelia, and eyebrow-raising arrangements that tell a rich emotional story.
lyrics
There was a time when I would let you know
What I was thinking
But now that I see the way you see the world
I think I'll fake it
Compassion only goes a certain way
And I do not have time for that today
Deep down I know that there's still love for you
It's what we're made for
But I know exactly how to hold it back
It's what I'm paid for
And after all the shit that we've been through
I'm finally gonna put an end to you
\\
When your back's against the wall
Who you gonna call
