00:00I feel like sometimes we think a lot about the future or the past.
00:03Nowadays, I'm just trying to live every moment, you know, and every second and every day and
00:09just be present and enjoy it.
00:17The studio process for that was really fun.
00:19I actually started it here in LA, in the desert.
00:22We got like this, this cool ass house in the desert.
00:25If you hear the beat, it has like chants and it's like very multicultural, I would say,
00:31the beat.
00:31I finished it with Tiny.
00:33We had Malachi who also did Move on one of my favorite songs.
00:37And then I did it with my boy West.
00:38So it was a really fun, like just back and forth, the creativity between us.
00:43So I had a lot of fun.
00:55I feel like a lot of men sometimes go out.
01:07They want this girl that's all over them or like looking and like, I feel like for me,
01:12it's more attractive when a girl is just there to like enjoy the music, enjoy the vibe, you know,
01:16enjoy their friends.
01:17So I really want to like to talk about this type of girl.
01:25It's like saying like, you know, a feeling for us, it's like a joint, a blunt.
01:42When you're like smoking, it's like you're enjoying that moment, you know?
01:47When you roll it up and then when you light it up, it's like a ritual.
01:50That's what I was trying to say.
01:51Like life is like a ritual.
01:53Enjoy it from top to end, you know?
01:56And really like log in.
01:57I think it's important to live in the moment because I feel like you can miss a lot of details.
02:23And you get distracted and if you're distracted, you can't like perceive a lot of beautiful stuff
02:29that's happening in front of you, you know?
02:30So right now in my life, I just want to like, you know, see everything and perceive everything
02:37and feel everything.
02:38Tomorrow, you never know what happens tomorrow.
02:40You got to like be here today and that's all that matters.
02:43No.
02:44What's going on with you?
03:01My moon is Scorpio, so I was also talking about myself.
03:05I'm an Aries, but my moon is Scorpio.
03:07Obviously, your moon is your emotions.
03:10I'm a really emotional person, so I feel like I'm part scorpion, part of the day, especially
03:15at night.
03:16I didn't want to say danger in a way of they're dangerous, it's just they're deep sometimes.
03:22That's a little bit dangerous.
03:24Not for the other person, it could be for the scorpion, because you're so deep.
03:37I'm talking about a leech, but obviously, a leech is her last name.
03:55I like to write with things that I hear, and then I think, and then I laugh.
04:00For me, that's cool lyrics when somebody just does a bar, and then I just laugh.
04:07That, for me, is what it's all about.
04:25Also about a person draws me to them to want to spend a night.
04:30Top one, I would say their personality, because beauty is everywhere, and everybody has a
04:36different kind of beauty.
04:37I don't think nobody is ugly or whatever.
04:39I feel like it's just different types of beauties, but I would say personality 100%.
04:45That's what I look for people every day, even for friendships or work, I feel like that's
04:52what makes a moment special.
04:57At this point, after so much stuff that has happened in my life, you just gotta know who
05:04you are, know the type of person you are.
05:09Sometimes you're at a great stage in your life, and things happen, and people perceive
05:11of you differently, and think you're in another stage of life, and think you're in another
05:18stage of life, or think you're crazy, or whatever.
05:20You can never base yourself, or your day, or your life on what other people think of you.
05:27The most important, I think, is knowing yourself, knowing the type of person you have, the kind
05:33of heart you have, so that's what really matters, so I just mute everything else.
05:51I really don't care.
05:53I feel like the pre-chorus and the chorus is really special for me.
05:59For me, it's the trance.
06:00It's where it doesn't matter who you are, if you're a boy, if you're a girl, what you're
06:04going through.
06:05It's where you connect with your version of the song, and your version of your story.
