Polymathic artist extraordinaire Miles Francis released a new single and its accompanying music video, and we’re absolutely intoxicated by the light as a feather soundscape that carries it all. “Nature” – at its core – is a song of acknowledgment and acceptance. Seeing the darkness in ourselves and addressing it, but not necessarily trying to change it. Embracing inescapable flaws, and learning to make them into art.

LYRICS
Wave up ahead, all that I see
I go red and let it wash over me
In just a moment, I submit
I cannot own it, I cannot quit
Ego inflated, intoxicated
Loaded with pride, must be my

Nature
Something in my nature
Governs my behavior
And I can’t see it through
Until I’ve hurt you

Swimming with my father
I feel the current bring me closer to him
Something in the water
Has turned these clean hands into phantom limbs
Ego inflated, emasculated
Loaded with pride, please forgive my

Nature
Something in my nature
Governs my behavior
And I can’t see it through
Until I’ve hurt you

Miles Francis dances in a field in an oversized suit, softened colors creating a dream sequence unlike any other. Take a gander for yourself!
