One of the five unreleased tracks Sampha played during his Satellite Business shows in June 2023. Unknown whether they’re separate songs or apart of the album under different titles.
[Chorus]
Even though we've been through the same
Doesn't always mean we feel the same (No-oh)
Doesn't always mean we heal the same
You are not me and that’s okay (That's okay)
Seasons come (Seasons come), seasons cry (Cry)
Seasons grow and seasons die (Oh-oh)

Doesn't always mean we heal the same
You are not me and that's okay (That's okay)
Seasons come, seasons cry (Cry)
Seasons grow and seasons die (Oh-oh)
How high can a bird ever fly? Ever fly?
