LYRICS
Oh walk on the water -- for me
Just for me baby o.k.
Oh, there’s always gon’ be pressure o.k.

“Pressure”

Nothing’s ever worse than work unnoticed
Freelance now, yeah I guess you earned it
Life is only wishing we could load it
Level up you got to make a bonus

Mystic staring at his phone for oneness
Silver or black mirror, what’s the difference?
Imitation always gets a bad rep man
Witches Brew had me on on the first sip, man

Smells like Autumn, smells like leaves
You don’t know that you’re rust and not belong
So much
And then you get left alone

Cloud hidden and my whereabouts unknown
Cazedero got me wearing all camo
Decked in Patagonia head to toe
Down for whatever, I think I let go

No more shoes and socks, I only rock sandals
I can’t tell if I’m hip or getting old
I can’t hear you, maybe you could change your tone
People tend to listen when they see your soul

Oh walk on water -- for me
Just for me baby

Sometimes I think we are from the same place
Now I don’t
What just happened?

IKEA staff deserves a raise for introducing me to this song

"I can't tell if I'm hip or getting old" I felt that

Toro is the guy who makes music just to make music, doesn’t need to be on the radio, or Social media, naa he’s the guy that is a treasure, once you discover him you won’t regret it

[czskateralexnke]

this dude is underrated and very gifted.

[imkarldaniel]

"People tend to listen when they see your soul" felt that

A song about how frustrating it is to be a graphic designer. I love that.

This song on the tablet in the IKEA by the Symfonisk speaker😂

Chaz wears a bucket hat to harness all of his drip that he prepares to drop

“People tend to listen when they see your soul”

[alexandrostype-]

I love the sense of humour of this guy, there is a classy and subtle goofiness in his songs and videoclips

[OhKeiSyd]

I was minding my own business in Target and suddenly this MASTERPIECE came on the radio and I absolutely had to know who sings it.
Thank god for Shazam lmao

[mothersuperior]

His music videos are always unique and seem to fit each of his songs so perfectly.

[yuliacherednikov]

i heard this song playing in IKEA on a speaker and i imagined myself speed skating to it 👌🏼

[warmonksLoL]

listening to the tiny desk concert version of this song then the music video version is a trip.

[Chiefahleaf]

This definitely feels like his early stuff. The song is great, I can't wait for the whole album now

[charlesmatthews]

I love his music as it has that awkwardness and sounds crazy I had to play it for a friend and they where like where do you get such music.... Great artist walking on the water
