Description
Hi, I’m Karma. I’m a musician, music producer and WRLD builder. I've been a musician most of my life and a crypto native since 2016. I wrote this song when I was feeling rumination and self-doubt about creating music, my place in the music industry, and what I thought the world was telling me it should be. Like most musicians, my catharsis was the wavs that emerged into this song.
LYFE is a song about the human experience, our relationship with time and what we choose to do with it. Do we waste it? What is wasting it? What is the best way to pass the time? What does dwelling on the past do for us? Should we be dwelling on the past? Is the past just a memory in the present moment? What should we be orienting ourselves towards, in order to create meaning in our lives and the lives of others?
The song represents the stages of life, birth to death (two sides of the same coin) and how our relationship with time makes life worth living. It has a feeling of bittersweet longing. Grasping for something that you never quite get to, similar to the human experience. I wrote this from a personal place, but the collective and the individual are interdependent, so here is my song to the WRLD…

Lyrics:
She (time) hit me back and I’m with it all along Lyrics
You hit me up for a minute
I've been stoned
And I can’t even tell you what is on
My mind once again is all alone
Call her (time) back and get me home
Sit me on this place that I've been trying to know
Came here for the mission, I've been gone
Cause I’m here for a minute
And I’m asking you with it
And you getting me home
Just to bring it alone
Cause I’m here for a minute
And I’m asking you with it
Just to leave me alone
All alone
You know me better
Like the weather
You let me go
Cause time is on your line
You hit me once arrived
I be on your mind like hundred times
Cause I’m here for a minute
And I’m asking you with it
And you getting me home
Just to bring it alone
Cause I’m here for a minute
And I’m asking you with it
Just to leave me alone
Had me up the other way with a lifeline
Get me home the other way when it's our line
I be up the other way on the sidelines
Gave me hope the other way when it’s all mine
I be up
Get me a lifeline
Baby girl you got me up and in the sidelines
Baby if you would have ever got the long line
Had me up the other way with the sunshine
Who do you think I am
You had me understand
The things that you could do
The things that you could say
You had the time of day
You push it all away
Lay me home all my life
Get me home with you tonight
I be home with separate eyes
Push it together
I am alright
Get me home
The look in your eyes
Get me home it’s all alright
Get me, I have been living
Been living live
