THE ALBUM IS OUT YOU GUYS!! ITS OUT ITS OUT, so you BETTER go stream it the WHOLE WAY THROUGH. And yes that is a threat. (Jk jk, but you should defo check it out I’ve never worked harder on anything maybe ever)

I hope you enjoyed this animatic of the title track from my album!! I’ll be releasing animatics for all of the songs on the album so this is the first of many! Come back next week to see the animatic for the next song on my album ‘RUN’.

✨About the song✨

This song, The Woods, is all about reckoning and retribution and how those that exploit others for profit will one day have to face what they’ve done. Their sins are so vast they’re carved into the very core of the earth and even if humans struggle to fight back, Nature itself will revolt!

This song is the first on my debut album ‘The Woods’! I can’t believe I’m even typing those words, when I first started my journey on YouTube I didn’t think I could even write a song, let alone an ALBUM. This is by far the biggest project I’ve ever attempted and the most of myself I’ve ever put into a project! I really hope when you listen to the album you get to know the girl behind the villain songs a little bit more!

🌎WORLD DOMINATION STRATEGY🌍

Now down to the real stuff, how do we take over the world? World domination isn’t easy but I believe in you. Once we’ve taken over the world maybe then Fig can finally be the figure skating chef of his dreams!

STEP 1 - stream the album the whole way through! If you have 40 minutes and really want to immerse yourself in my world then streaming the whole album is a great idea and also tells the algorithm gods that it’s a good album so they recommend it to more people!

STEP 2 - save the album to your library and playlists! Again this really helps to get the album out there, world domination is all a matter of lots of small steps so don’t miss this one!

STEP 3 - stream the album again - or just your fave songs from the album! And maybe then Fig (my cat) can finally meet his Idol, Dwayne the Rock Johnson

💚 HUGE THANK YOUS 💚

🎶 Co-writer: Ben Tomalin, you’re a musical genius and an incredible friend. I’m so glad we made this album together!

🎨 Video: @maybemacdc, your work is absolutely INSANE, thank you for bringing this world to life!

✨LYRICS✨

There’s a girl out there
Walking real slow
Grief sings on the air
Fire, ash and smoke
She may be gone for now
but she’ll be back again

Starvations running the Sky
The Days are hot, wells are dry
Picking off the common folk
Coming for their loved ones and their throats
Pray to last the night
But there’s not much left to die
Famine circles, takes a bite
As hunger steals their life and then their lives

The devils sit on white chairs
As the people sing to the wind

Oh the day will come
When your dates read
Hear that hungry noise
See the hells fed
Oh and then you’ll run
But just so you know
Anywhere you go
Oh the woods will know

Wealth sits on a throne
Here wells overflow
Lounging under Money trees
Set to bring the whole world to its knees It claims the air you breathe

Burns what it can’t seize
Theres no force as feverish as avarice, as greed

The devils claim their saviours
As the people starve and spirits sing

Oh the day will come
When your dates read
Hear that hungry noise
See the hells fed
Oh and then you’ll run
But just so you know
Anywhere you go
Oh the woods will know

The dirt told the grass and the fields told the flowere
The folly of man and those seated in power

Briars told branches and leaves told the trees
It takes one song to break rich knees

Grove told the glen and the vale told the meadow
They sang the same song and they let the noise echo

Streams told the rivers and hills told the mountain
Til one angry girl heard the whisper of sound and

She could hear the earth
Hear it screaming
Hear that hungry noise
Ripe for feeding
She could hear the ground
Hear it’s beating
Earth and Dirt were done
With their cheating
She packed up her gun
Joined in with the sound
Couldn’t kill me then
And you can’t kill me now

Oh the day will come
When your dates read
Hear that hungry noise
See the hells fed
Oh even the sun
Knows what you said
Lay your head upon
Dirt and Deathbed
Oh and then you’ll run
But just so you know
Anywhere you go
Oh the woods will know
