Mountain Mover for Hire (Single)

I feel like Jason Ecid wrote a love song to the turmoil of the cycles of mania that those of us who cope with bipolar are forced to face.

lyrics
(Hook)
Trying to do a million things at once
So everything's in moderation
Moving mountains just for lunch
While they dream about vacation (x2)
(Verse 1)
We're always fighting for the upper hand
Even though we know its just another scam
Time to level up - Leave a note under the lap - baby
we aint' coming back til these fuckers understand
Trying to get electrocuted for sport
If I get jury duty then Im suing the courts
If it was up to me we wouldn't be keeping score
But everything in life has a fee what a chore
I could cash out find a stash out on a nude beach
with a cool breeze two seats poolside
but I'd be too bored give it two weeks
and Im boarding the next flight to MN or NY I can't lie thats me
Get sky and find me some peace
Red eye to red eye's then sleep
I need to tap into that energy to feel free
Just play some fucking Prince let your spirit take the lead
(Hook)
Trying to do a million things at once
So everything's in moderation
Moving mountains just for lunch
While they dream about vacation (x2)
(Verse 2)
Live a little it's your miserable existence
You can pick and choose at your own volition
I refuse to adopt the traditions
and Im doing great with no baggage or restrictions
Gotta play the game - just manipulate it in your favore
Try and try to change but your limited by layers
and levels you haven't made it to
You can skim the pages and pretend your making do but do what ya say ya do
I will not be bullied by tyranny of spoiled oil tycoons
and the goons they've assumed as offspring
Couple puffs a day to keep the demons at bay
Leading the way to accepting the finality in lost things
But ya can't hold on forever never needed a guard up
Small world better work on that karma
starve the inner hater and kill shit til they take your
freedom and fuck you with it in front of your neighbors

"Vault" - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (2021)
by B Dolansupported by 4 fans who also own “Mountain Mover for Hire (Single)”
I dig that there is more here than on the vinyl release, eg. last night in the car I went looking for Padrino's Theme not knowing the sound by name. I knew it was near the end of side A. Today I read on the back of the sleeve, "Dedicated to the memory of Brendan 'Alias' Whitney" and I exclaimed, "Gods this is a good fucking album." I appreciate both iterations though, might feel the sequencing more on the physical.
