scaring off his friends with an expression that just makes them shiver looking at the bridges as the ashes fall into the river watching his ambitions try to flee the cold like birds in autumn never talks about his problems he knows everybody's got em selling his identity for strangers to commiserate because his greatest fear is that he's not unique in any way his thoughts are now a deafening wall of static, mind is in decay the voices keep on talking, never having all that much to say go away you ain't special (calm yourself, lose yourself) perfecting all your melodies obsessing over rhymes all of it's been done before stop wasting all your time don't worry about your followers they're not your real friends start making real connections before it all ends people sleep when life is simple people dance when life is fun people screw when life is boring people cry when life is done you're just another one another forgettable one you're just like everyone will you be alone when life is done?

"Woooooow..... this album is bad. This is pretty much a recipe for having your head up your ass. There's just too much filler. There's too much awful moments. There's too much completely boring, average, thoughtless, and middle-brow songs on this thing." - Anthony Fantano "I hate CJ6.5. I immediately lose respect for anyone who listens to them. Here's why - CJ6.5 pulls the most heavyweight packaging from teenage angst with each album." - Subliminal Stimuli "It's essentially a mix of off-brand Aphex Twin, generic techno, and samples of him screaming alone in his car." - DJ Vortivask "In what possible way could subjecting my brain to something that disgusting enrich my life?" - Marshall Eriksen Music: CJ6.5 Recorded: October 2020 Samples taken from: YouTube

about

Our protagonist continues to develop his own sound on his journey of self-loss, meanwhile rejecting fame, stopping to laugh at himself and shake a finger at the world, and finally, rallying together his friends and family to help him conjure his own memento mori.
