About
Genius Annotation
If the album is understood as the telling in reverse of Redford’s life up until his suicide then this song represents his soul after departure. You can infer this from the last line on the song “Make My” wherein Thought raps: “ That soul is in the atmosphere like airplay, if there’s a heaven I cant find a stairway”.
One of this album’s main themes deals with death as a return, evident in lines like “fading back to black, my dark coronation”. The fact that the album both begins and ends with instrumentals symbolize birth and death.
