about

‘Embryo’ and its B-side ‘Virus Of The Mind’ (release date July 17th on Gusstaff Records through Helixed/MGM) is the first startling single from the astonishing forthcoming album by Hugo Race & The True Spirit – ‘Star Birth’ (release date October 2020).

lyrics

Embryo
(Hugo Race)

its always you, you, you in everything I do
the bullshit that darkens my day
they say it’s a virus one you cannot tame
a dance no one remembers that don’t have a name
we’re the truth on trial don’t touch that dial
they’re sharpening claws crowdfunding wars
no one escapes surrounded by the plague
i can’t hate you anymore
a million eyes are poppin’
data swimming upstream
we heard it on the grapevine sucked into your machine
we are born again alien, nothings what it seems
microwaves are buzzin so obscene
it s all lies, lies, lies
there’s nothing you cannot know
we no longer fuck
for no future embryo
i am, i am, embryo, embryo

smoke another steel rail breathe the carbon rain
jargon monoxide blowin thru yr brain
brothers start fighting, stop the double speak
in yr bubble drinkin kool aid doped up on 5G
software knows us better than we know ourselves
gave us what we wanted, this plastic hell
they say it’s a virus of the contagious kind
a stone cold killer virus of they mind
its in the food and the water lies lies lies
and they never stop coming even when we die
the data is a buzzin so obscene
there’s nothing you cannot know
nothing you cannot know
we no longer fuck
for no future embryo
i am, i am, embryo, embryo
