about

"Blinder" is the title track of SAADI's forthcoming LP

lyrics

blinder

take my time, the remainder
take it now while i can bedazzle the gifts that i have left
hold you tight in my mind's eye
shining nightfly
bright cuz there’s nothing for miles all around

have I savored every minute till now
have I paid for every minute till now
right now, right now
right now, gone when it’s sighted

sinking slowly, slow enough to know
all is holy, loving and leaving and frothing in some way
i want only what i so deserve
what is that though
shoving and pleading just beyond the blinders

have I savored every minute till now
will I pay for every minute till now
right now. right now
right now, gone when it’s sighted

take my time, take my time, take my time

at this altar of altercations
bleeding nations
busted up bodies just beyond the blinders
they want only what they know
what is that though
world without sorrow just beyond the blinders

have i savored every minute till now
have i paid for every minute till now

take my time, take my time, take my time
