Rising Decline Revisited: Lemonade [Part 8 of 18]

Bill Selak Talks

You’ve heard the story behind the music, now it’s time to listen to the track itself. Here’s Lemonade, the fourty song from Rising Decline’s 9-track album, newly remixed and reimagined with the power of AI.

This is part of my 18-episode series, where I break down each track from the album, share the process, and bring you along on a journey of nostalgia and innovation. Enjoy this song—free for a limited time. And by limited, I mean forever.
Lyrics:

Lemonade

Dust the coffee table Straighten up the shelves

Walk with the blinds, I’m passing time

Can’t fade away, It’s painted on my face I’ll move on

A confession of the mind It’s building up inside

Gotta leave reality Play some chords

The pain it doesn’t flow So I let my fire grow

It’s building up inside Of me

An addict to the fear Accustomed to the shame

I brought this on myself Not worthy of my name

Stripped myself of pride, I need someone by my side I’m afraid

A confession of the mind It’s building up inside

Gotta leave reality Play some chords

The pain it doesn’t flow So I let my fire grow

It’s building up inside of

This stranger in the night, now I’ll stand up to their fight

Why are you surprised?

You will never fight For what is right

So I’m leaving you In spite of what you see

Here’s my lemonade
