best track on the new album. the imagery is insane, the production is absolutely fucking wild with all the little nuances that build throughout the beat, and the whole concept and message of the song just makes me rethink everything in my life

It feels like a Meta commentary on the album. It was supposed to be a concept album aside from "Mindful Solutionism" most of the tracks don't fit with the ITS theme. Instead we got an album full of unique bangers.

I was just informed by my friends on the internet that people hate pigeons. Let us remember that the reason why these pigeons exist the way they do is because we brought them here. We use them and because we got the telephone we didn't need them anymore. So let's not hate on an animal that did its job for us and made us a better society. Let's embrace the role that pigeon's played in our life and understand because of an action that we did caused them to be what they are today. Let's love the animals that made us better. Love pigeons like a horse!

This song made me really think because you can relate this message to a lot of things. The conversation about drawing 1000 pigeons can also be symbolic which may if been intended

Anytime Aes starts rapping about his Shortcomings in art, he will definitely however inadvertently expose your shortcomings as a lyricist

This song is so fun and satisfying to sing along to

I agree. I feel sorry for pigeons, they don't mean any harm, they just want help.

there's no such thing as a wild street pigeon. they're all feral descended from domesticated rock doves to be kept as pets. not even native to turtle island. they know we used to be friends. they don't really know what happened or why things are this way now. it kind of fucks me up sometines
