about

Fire- it can both build and destroy; though serving as a tool to re-ignite passion, when overdone it can also burn the very bridge you're standing on (arrogant musicians should know exactly what I'm talking about- though I don't really consider myself one).

Fire destroyed Ralph Ellison's home and manuscript for the novel "Juneteenth." It destroyed my ability to take criticism and follow through with my project.

I didn't decide on this name for this particular track until a wrong turn during the mastering process destroyed both this track and 5 others.

(Too bad Ellison didn't live in the era of USB flash drives)
