Gab (knapsack) composed “Inferior” after being inspired by a drive home during the summer of 2017 where he saw the eclipse. He then recruited singer/songwriter Anh Le (ÊMIA) to sing/write the vocal melody and lyrics.
Taking the inspiration from the title “inferior”, Anh wrote this about the loss...
[Verse 1]
I stood across the horizon
Right at the edge of the lake
When I close my eyes, that's where I can see your face
'Cause all I have left is the feeling
That we'd meet again someday
Do you hear the words I whisper that I'm scared to say?
[Verse 2]
Like, did you do the things you wanted to
Do you see me from my higher view
Was it the wind or were you're passing through?
Was it you, was it you?
Would you forgive me if I started to
Live a life where I don't think of you
I mean, it's not a thing that I would do
But would you
[Chorus]
Even though I am stuck and frozen
Living in, in another moment
I can't stop the world from turning
Holding on, but with every hour
I know time has a grip that's stronger
I can't stop the world from turning
[Hook]
I can't, I can't
All we can do is surrender
I can't, I can't
'Cause we are inferior
I can't, I can't
All we can do is surrender
I can't, I can't
'Cause we are inferior
Inferior was written by ÊMIA (Anh Le).
