Run Through the Snow, Pt. 1

From Off the Summit EP

Released on November 24, 2023

Run Through the Snow, Pt. 1 is a memory-driven track about childhood vulnerability and learning to cope by running. Growing up, running through the snow became a way to escape tension at home and quiet things that couldn’t be fixed — a habit of running formed early, chasing relief that never really arrived.

Lyrics

I think I'm feeling out of touch
Too many nights waiting for snow to show up
I see it on the screen
I feel it my on mind

Those winter nights and I have a history
Too many times that moonlight saw me weak
Daylight broke and you saw me run through the snow

I would just run, run, run 
Run through the snow
There's no more problems if you run
Run through the snow

I was 7 in naptown 
My big sis was 12
Christmas day '07
Lookin for presents
Wanna dig in
Ma's cookin for the whole house
She ain't have no breaks
We bugged her bout presents she had to take a break
Basement she was crying
Dad's arms inviting
Raising a fam of is 6 is hard
But pressure makes diamonds
Me and sis listen through vents
I couldn't take it
Sis wrapped me in my Scooby-Doo blanket
She said we gonna make it

Next day I run, run, run
Run through the snow
I said there's no more problems if you run
Run through the snow

I walk alone with the weight of the world on my shoulders
Where is the snow to carry my burdens?

(This heatwave is too hot)
(I think I need some time to just go--)

I would just run, run, run
Run through the snow
I would just run, run,
(Run, dart, sprint, SCREAM)
Run through the snow
