Amir Obe Shadow

Amir Obe Shadow

Def Jam’s Amir Obe has come through with a new single, appropriately titled “Shadow.” And like the track’s namesake, Obe’s approach to structure here is certainly mysterious, beginning with not one but two separate build-ups. The first finds him on his ASMR tip, haunting whispers over a tense synthesizer heartbeat. As that reaches its apex, it unfolds into a more atmospheric soundscape, albeit one with no less tension. Before long, things reach a crescendo and Obe’s vocals finally hit in full — or do they?

Sike, there’s another build — this one slightly more menacing than the last, driven by Obe’s tight melody. “Wave hello to my shadow,” he sings, over spooky string hits. “Darkness my protection, no I never needed more / we can go to battle, wave hello my friend / there’s blood on the gravel, I’m still beside you in the end.” And with that, all hell breaks loose.

Lyrics

[Chorus]
Goin’ for my lil’ obsession
Wave hello to my shadow
The darkness my protection
No one ever need him
We can go to battle
Wave hello my friend
Now it’s blood on the ground

[Post-Chorus]
Hello
Wave hello to my shadow
Say hello to my shadow
Wave hello to my shadow
Shadow
Shadow

[Chorus]
I’m goin’ for my lil’ obsession
Wave hello to my shadow
The darkness my protection
No one ever need him, no
We can go to battle
Wave hello my friend
There’s blood on the gravel
I’m stand beside you in the [?]

I’m goin’ for my lil’ obsession
Wave hello to my shadow
The darkness my protection
No one ever need him, no
We can go to battle
Wave hello my friend
Now it’s blood on the ground
[?]

[Verse]
Bad for my health
I’m scared for myself
I gotta get away, now
I just need help
They can hear me out
Every time I lay down
Hope I’m alright, hope I’m alright
Nothing [?] now
Hope I’m alright, hope I’m alright, hey

[Chorus]
I’m goin’ for my lil’ obsession
Wave hello to my shadow
The darkness my protection
No one ever need him, no
We can go to battle
Wave hello my friend
Now there’s blood on the gravel
I’m stand beside you in the [?]

[Outro]
Shadow
Wave hello to my shadow
Say hello to my shadow
[?]
