A note about this song, from Damon Locks:
"An ode to Chicago: In a hospital room, doctors and nurses come in and out, evaluating, recommending, prepping, and testing. But once visiting hours are over the patient is left alone with their thoughts, ruminating on the intimidating lack of agency and loneliness of losing control of their own circumstances. Drifting towards despair, they discover flowers in the room. There is a note attached that expresses what I would say to Chicago in its most precarious condition.
“We see you. We love you. Stay beautiful.”
I am very happy to be able to share this song at this time. It is a fitting message for this moment we are living through. I hope you all stay safe."
