about
The song uses engineering concepts to illustrate how being selfish distorts our perception of reality. Written during the pandemic, it was produced and mixed by influential professionals in the Brazilian music scene, and features a modern and polished sound, with elements of trap and 2000’s pop-punk.
lyrics
There are only so many degrees of freedom
Yet we’re spiraling, spinning out of control
Self-absorbed in our own lives, never mind
I won’t spare a dime for your problems cause I already got mine
Black and white
These faces in the city pass me by so fast
We keep our windows shut
As the rain hits the ground
Misty eyes
Numb by the days that past us by
It’s a gold rush, and this kinetic life
Will lead us straight to madness
There are only so many degrees of freedom
Yet we’re spiraling, spinning out of control
Self-absorbed in our own lives, never mind
I won’t spare a dime for your problems cause I already got mine
But at 1 am you’ll find me all alone
Crying as reality splits from my hands
“What have I become?”
And just as self-centeredness gets the best of me I wake up
And I finally see through the motion blur
There are only so many degrees of freedom
Yet we’re spiraling, spinning out of control
Self-absorbed in our own lives, never mind
I won’t spare a dime for your problems cause I already got mine
Drawing our hands closer to our bodies
Like an ice ballerina in the highlight of her show
Drawing our hands closer to our bodies now
We’ll never start to live until we reach out
There are only so many degrees of freedom
Yet we’re spiraling, spinning out of control
Self-absorbed in our own lives, never mind
I won’t spare a dime for your problems cause I already got mine
Self-absorbed in our own lives, I don’t want it anymore
We’ll never start to live until we reach out
We’ll never start to live until we reach out
