Superposition

I posted this before but apparently it only took people to the main page of Mixcloud, so I'm trying again!
Lyrics:
I can feel a change has been made inside of me
Free to let go of who I was
and everything I thought I’d be
Shed of will to fight the long past self-injuries
And putting the blade back into the belt
Being happy just to breathe
Spent a lifetime gaming to grasp gilded glory
To finally set myself apart
To finally be seen
But the moments passed and the black tides grew high
Swallowing up the shore and sky
And pulling me out to sea
Incompleteness in my skin
Incompleteness in my skin
Shadowed faces, quiet places
In between the din
No intention in the stars
No intention in them
Let it all begin
Let the silence in
Incompleteness in my skin
Incompleteness in my skin
Unlit halls, weathered walls
In the shifting sands
No intention in the stars
No intention only superposition
Ready to begin
Now what’s left will wait in the lap
Of patient sleep
For someone to stumble into the gaps of my history
What I’ll whisper to them is yet a mystery
The wisdom of fools who’ve shouted back
At thrashing eternity
Incompleteness in my skin
Incompleteness in my skin
Shadowed faces, quiet places
In between the din
No intention in the stars
No intention in them
Let it all begin
Let the silence in
Incompleteness in my skin
Incompleteness in my skin
Unlit halls, weathered walls
In the shifting sands
No intention in the stars
No intention only superposition
Ready to begin
Stormy weather, stand tall
Let the river flow

Thanks for that, the link is working now!
You have a wonderful voice, it lights up this track.
The instrumentation feels very polished, very modern. A sparse feel which spotlights your voice.
Love those extra vocals when they come in. so lush!
It's a long track, but that's only a potential issue if you're looking to go commercial. Even then, there's plenty of historical songs of similar length.
I like the poetic lyric. Very introspective, which fits the sparse style of the music.
Overall I found this a very impressive track.

Okay! @mr_octopus now I really don't care if I don't understand the lyric entirely because I LOVE the groove and your vocal; right from the get-go! Thank you for fixing the link! And dang it! Went to give you a like but need to sign up to do so and don't really want to at the moment 😥
"Obvious" just came on ❤️ and "Obvious" is pretty obvious! Nice production, your stuff!

@StoneFlowers Haha I'm not sure if it quite qualifies as trip-hop but it was the closest I could think of. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
