Erick Arc Elliott Let It Go

The Flatbush Zombies have steadily ascended the ranks, to the point where many consider Erick Arc Elliott, Zombie Juice, and Meechy Darko to be one of the best crews of the new generation. And while they recently released a new EP in Now More Than Ever, which found the group teaming up with James Blake for the first time, the Zombies have opted to come out swinging on an individual level this time around.

Today, Erick The Architect has officially lifted the curtain to unveil FutureProof, his first EP as a solo artist. Set to arrive on January 22nd, the project has seen confirmed guest appearances by Loyle Carner, FARR, Pip Millett, Sophie Faith, and full production by Linden Jay. Though Erick is an accomplished producer in his own right, it seems as if he’s handing off the reigns for this one. The first single “Let It Go” has officially arrived, with The Architect describing the track as  “a song that captures the internal battle of guilt and doubt you experience while pursuing a dream.”  Relatable enough for the masses to find common ground, it also serves to preview the rapper’s laid-back and introspective new sound.

Lyrics

Hope to see you front row stage with a smile on
A thousand of my fans singing my songs
I told you I’d be with you if this world ends
And you can say “wo yeah that’s my boyfriend”
On tour, promised you my heart
Guaranteed you’re the first? when I depart
Understand I gotta make it doin’ what I love
It’s comin’, but I’d rather be beside you when it does
Now I’m workin’ hard on bein’ sensible and sweet
When it comes to music you’ve been nothing but discreet
And I spend so much, but you loungin’ on the beach
On our way home I write about it when you sleep
But I disappear at nights
You were really fed up
Reachin’ for my bedside when you wouldn’t get up
Not there, I return with a reason too
Just recordin’, I never thought of leaving you

Sorry, but I gotta go
And this rapping is the only living thought I know
We could go wishing that I wasn’t wrong for you
I know you won’t listen
So I wrote a song for you

Separated from the days we exist
You love me but you wanna turn away when we kiss
I don’t have the time
My flight leaves at 9: 30
I board the plane late if you would grind for me
I’m in a? with my thoughts so I can’t write
Cuz everything I’m jotting down never sounds right

It used be so peaches and cream, girl
I know it ain’t right but that’s what I dream, girl
I never tried till we saying goodbye
Touchdown in June and return late in July
Yo I’m coming back and I hate making you cry
Praying for this rap shit I aim for the sky
I wish there was a way for me to give you part of me
So if I’m not around you can have my artistry
Struggle when I write it, that’s not what bothers me
Keep it to my music and I know it’s hard to see
And I know it

Sorry, but I gotta go
And this rapping is the only living thought I know
We could go wishing that I wasn’t wrong for you
I know you won’t listen
So I wrote a song for you
