Not worried ‘bout the time, only worried ‘bout the dogs Skippin’ over glass like hoppin’ over logs The shards are kinda small but they would take it all Got my phone in my pocket in case I need to make that call Just hope I got the credit or I’m just a neanderthal Runnin’ past the packs in the dust-lit fields of glistening glass Reachin’ for my packs in my pocket, tryina get some energy fast Trick my brain into trickin’ my legs to pick it up, to pick it up fast Comin’ ‘round the turn, better cross quick, better get over to the grass zid zid khouya sir sir khusik tmshi l'chi blasa tmma b3id mn l'khtr b3id mn l'ja7n fin l'jbl y9is l'smma mdli my melody rmli the remedy musi9a dima dani n3s w ana khudt w9ti w 7lmt b'Títíma I got worried ‘bout the time ‘cause the sun didn’t shine But we’re just now tickin’ past 3:49 It’s kinda late or kinda early, I don’t mind Check my pulse and my breathing and my vital signs And I’m not worried ‘bout the climb, only worried ‘bout the fall Shoe shatter shimmerin’, sweat is turnin’ into salt Winter went and Spring sprung early like Summer in the Fall Shoe shatter shimmerin’, sweat is turnin’ into salt Hot hands, chilly cheeks Happy heart, at least I think Crushed cans, hot feet Fire’s nice, at least I think Darija Translation: Go brother go! You gotta get to a place over there Far from the danger Far from the sadness Where the mountain touches the sky Hand me my melody Throw me the remedy Music always.. Sleep started to hit me So I took my time And then I dreamt of Títíma

This is round 1 of coffee A routine ritual like my dad, like my best friend But the methods are different I used to B-line to my balcony But now I sit up on my front room window ledge I find that the sun hits differently ‘Cause there’s nothin like natural light There’s nothin like the glimpse of a sunray or 2 comin through Hittin you on your left side There’s nothin like natural light Nothin like the run down a mountain As the sunshine’s countin down (the) time That it faces the east side What’s my one-meal-a-day gonna be? Guess I need a little bit more than just the sun Than just some vitamin D Need a little bit more inside of me Gotta step away from the vitamin C Really sorin’ up my gums and my tongue and the tips of my teeth Gotta be somethin that’s a little less citrusy But there’s nothin like natural light There’s nothin like the glimpse of a sunray or 2 comin through Hittin you on your right side Nothin like natural light Nothin like runnin down the side of a mountain As the sunshine’s countin down time on the east side Sarjem dyali m7loul Sinkin in the cushion, gotta get up Stretch my back the way I always do Rotate my neck to one side Then to the other like I always do (I) feel a little chilly Gotta throw on some warm Jose tunes Just to get some Feelin back Meditate; ground my center-self like I hardly do But there’s nothin like natural light There’s nothin like the glimpse of a sunray or 2 comin through Hittin you on your best side There’s nothin like natural light Nothin like the run down a mountain As the sunshine’s countin down time That it faces the east side Nothin like the run up a mountain As the sunshine’s countin up time ‘Til it faces the west side (west side, best side) Wringin’ out all the bits of daylight left Time to start movin, gotta get up Stretch my back, and might as well stretch the rest Grabbin for my jar of coffee This is the last round and I’ll stop here ‘Cause when the sun goes down I downgrade a grade down to tea A lower caffeine tier There’s nothin like natural light Cloud Mtn ain’t Cloud Mtn Without some natural sunlight Cloud Mtn ain’t Cloud Mtn Without some natural sunlight

about

this is special cuz ur ears get 1st dibs. it'll be on spotify and the rest of those streamerz/storez in a few days..
Cloud Mtn album is so damn special to me. it contains a collection of songs written between march and august 2020, mostly while still living in morocco during lockdown-era.
listen with good headphones or tiiiight speakers and listen to the album straight thru, no talkin, no pausing, just go thru itttt.
i put basically all of myself into this, save for like, idk, blood. well actually my 3rd finger tip did bleed while tracking shoe shatter shimmer. anyways, what i want u to kno is that this is important AF to me and i want you to listen with care and openness and all that and just f***ing enjoy.

best love,
J

P.S. Please share this with your friends, family, coworkers, acquaintances, ur dog, ur tequila, new peeps u meet on the world wide web, ur habiba, whoever. Thank uuuuu sm.
