about

Kindness of Bearer’s first release of 2023 comes in the form of “Grow”, a vibrant new single by David Marston featuring Life on Planets. Over the years, David Marston and Life on Planets have formed a formidable and complimentary musical partnership. Their latest collaboration speaks to their mutual artistic understanding as well as the pair’s inclination to blend multiple musical genres. Marston’s sleek production combines bubbling Caribbean rhythms with lush Rhodes chords, deep sub-bass, bright guitar licks, and transient synth melodies. Life on Planets delivers a confident and sharp vocal performance with a suavity that has come to epitomize his style. The lyrics poetically describe a once-solid relationship that is now navigating rough waters. Nonetheless, the individuals involved are committed to finding a way to work with each other to reach a place of strength and emotional equilibrium. The refrain “Let me grow for you” is heard throughout the song and speaks to the crucial role that personal growth and self-reflection play in the establishment of timeless love.

lyrics

Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah,

Let me grow for you,

Uh, keep it steady ya
Steady steady,
Steady steady,

Map constellations,
Your tiny infinity,
Connect all of dem stars,
Spread across your body,

We got problems but we fit so well together,
You put me back together,
Oh yeah,
Oh yeah yeah,

Steady like the mountain,
From which I climb and leap,
Drink you by the ounces,
Wisdom you give to me,
Give it to me,

I’m hard-headed but you be so patient,
I just keep on fallin’ but you keep on waiting,
Oh yeah,
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Say dem eyes hang heavy,
Eyes are hanging heavy from your sinkin’ heart,
Your heart, your heart,
Put out these dancin’ flames,
Put down the rose-tinted panes,
Let me grow for you,
Let me grow for you, grow for you,

Eyes hang heavy,
Your eyes hang low the lids like limestone,
Put out these dancin’ flames,
Put down your rose-tinted panes,
Imma grow for you,
Let me grow for you, grow for you,

Oh yeah,
Let me grow for you

Eyes hang heavy,
Eyes hangin’

You like a jaguar say rawrrr,
Like the ocean on the north bend,
When I get doubts you freeze me out,
Warm up and let me dive in,

Dive in im writhin’ im wildin’,
Need to show you that our love can be timeless,
Eyes hang heavy,
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah,

You are the earth my shadow lies on,
What do you see beyond horizons?
Shipwrecked soakin’ all the day long,
Let me be the man aye aye,

I am a Koi fish swimmin’ in your pond,
Workin’ on myself the list go on and on,
Oh yea,

Eyes hang heavy,
Eyes hanging heavy from your sinkin’ heart,
Ooooh,
Put out these dancin’ flames,
Put down the rose-tinted panes,
Let me grow for you,
Let me grow for you, grow for you,

Eyes hang heavy,
Your eyes hang low the lids like limestone,
Put out these dancin’ flames,
Put down your rose-tinted panes,
Imma grow for you,
Let me grow for you, grow for you,

Keep it steady now yeah,
Yeah, yeah,
Let me grow for you
