you're gonna go far kid. i dont want your little heart thing by this comment, i just want you to see it and feel it. chin up my little lion. the video from Syrmor and this song alone has helped me in ways i couldnt bother to explain. just know that.
Lyrics: Me and my friends drinking in a ally partners in substance abuse, got out of jail on probation and I didn't look back to you, got 40's to fetch, disarming my wretched pack on a greyhound and a train to catch and im going somewhere different, that sacred motion, my devotion is leading me into the hard land, I wanted to be a astronaut but so did everyone and im just not that smart man And now im somewhere to safety and it's awkward, that's fate, I pray for paranoia to go away, away, way, way, way ay, I pray ay for paranoia to away, Away! I might be a little wrong but this is what I heard, love this song so much
You need a soundcloud, a spotify, and a place (preferably the description) to put the chords, strum pattern, and lyrics. I love this song as well youre a great person! :)
I had just found you're stuff from symor and I thought it was so sad but an inspiring story an also thought so talented while you were singing so I checked to see if you had a channel and sure enough you do! I hope you get bigger!

This song makes me feel...calm, if that's the word. The notes and rhythms and the somehow clean sloppiness of this song is soothing and nostalgic in a way. I lost most of my memory two years back due to a traumatic brain injury and this makes me feel connected to my life before the accident. Thank you, you're awesome
I did in a way. I feel comfortable enough with myself now to say that I've had paranoid schizophrenia since I was 16 and now that everyone understands this feeling, I don't regret it one bit.

3 years later and I still visit this song. I hope you are doing great. You are one of the reasons I bought a harmonica. Sing your heart out, the world needs more free souls.

You should make a soundcloud! Edit: I didn’t wanna make another comment to bother you with, so I’ll keep it short. You are really talented. You have a great future ahead. You will almost definitely be well known in the future. You don’t seem to want to have to hide anything. You don’t have to label yourself as something stupid. You just call yourself what and who you are.
Syrmor was the reason I heard your music and I love it love how much soul you but into your songs. Sometimes I want to give up and run away but the music you posts keeps me sane thank you P.S love discount another song of yours.
You know it's been a long ass while since I thought to myself "I fucking love people." Listening to your story made me feel that again. Thank you so much man, keep doing what you do, respect dude. *sigh* I fucking love people. PS where does the idea for the bird as your icon or avatar come from? Maybe I missed something in the story but Im just curious.
Many people may not know who you are yet, but I can tell, you are gonna rock this world like a hurricane and you will go so far. I believe in you, little star!
Dang man... What a life. You’re gonna be big, I can feel it. You’ve got an insane story behind you and you can hear that in your music. So many people are gonna listen to and love your music, I know I do. You’re gonna go far.
There really is something about the way you play the guitar that hits the feels right where it hurts. I came to listening to your music after hearing the hard times you went through from Syrmor’s vid and I couldn’t help but feel something I’ve never felt from any kind of song, book, or film. I’m a 14 year old kid from San Francisco and my parents left each other when I was around five years old so I got moved around a lot from parent to parent across California for most of my pre teens. When I was around nine I found out my mom was dating a guy who got her pregnant with my step brother who is now 5 years old. Shortly after my brother was two I would find my mom asleep on the floor of her room crying some times and I never understood at the time that she was drinking because my step dad was doing meth and beating her. Which meant that I would be taking care of my brother for sometimes weeks on end. Sometimes my stepdad would try to break down our door trying to talk to my mom or my brother when he was high until he fell asleep. Eventually both my mom and my dad decided to move together to Florida to get away from both poverty and my step dad. We had to stop with family in Alabama for a while as a pit stop but instead I got held by my alcoholic Mom in Alabama for half a year without being able to go to school. My dad moved into a condo on an island in Florida and one night drove all the way to Alabama to take me to Florida when he heard that my stepdad had found where we were staying in Alabama and was going to come and try to take my brother back with him. I’m so here I am in Florida finally starting freshman year of high school not knowing what’s going to happen next and I hear your music for the very first time it reminds me of myself and where I can’t describe as within every song there is that tweak of trauma that hits the feels button. But in every other way is my favorite way of coping with everything, and hearing how you turned out in the end is probably the biggest thing keeping my motivated and while you might just be a voice on the Internet I can’t thank you enough for continuing to make music for everyone and I hope that you never stop because there’s always more people who look up too you than you might know. Thank you for your time.
"i wanted to be an astronaut but so did everyone and im just not that smart man." to be pigeonholed into a destiny that we cannot all have makes many kids unrealistically feel like failures. thats how this song speaks to me at least. but its sung in a way that releases that pain and makes me feel better about moving on.
My online best friend showed me this song. He hasn't been active for a couple days and before he went off he was posting very edgy stuff. I think I was the last one to talk with him and I miss him so much. I'm going through the "His phone is probably broke" phase but everything I see keeps on showing up like he did something very bad. I can't help but cry to this song and think of the night he showed me this. I loved him with all my heart and more. I love you Estevan, I hope you can finally find peace wherever you are 💗
The abused harmonica is the second best part of the song
Fuckin perfect
I agree, it needed that part 🤟🏽
I was eating my spicy hot cup noodles and almost spilled all of it
I really don’t get the harmonica part at 0:55 it doesn’t really sound very great to me.

Which Syrmor video?
The one that Kevin talks about his childhood and his life

You need to write a book or movie about your life. Your story is very heartwarming and you have great talent in what you do.
I would actually buy that book
I would 100% buy it
I would buy the book
A movie would be a bit weird, but a book. That would be awesome. That would be amazing.

This song genuinely made me cry and I don't know why. It's really beautiful, thank you for the amazing song.
Safety is quite awkward when you're used to the world shitting on you. Love your music ❤🎶
My little brother showed me your stuff and I absolutely am in love with it. Glad you’re doing what you’re doing.
Your little brother is cool, tanks for likin it my dude
Yo who disliked this beautiful song?
still love this, all so many years later.
The harmonica part made me fucking cry of laughter, yet i'm still touched by the song. You're a genius man

I still like listening to this version. Lots of memories here.
Man you predicted that?
I did in a way. I feel comfortable enough with myself now to say that I've had paranoid schizophrenia since I was 16 and now that everyone understands this feeling, I don't regret it one bit.
Dude your music sounds nostalgic even though I've never heard it before
why isnt this on spotify?
cuz they wont get back to me

I WANTED TO BE AN ASTRONAUT BUT SO DID EVERYONE AND IM JUST NOT THAT SMART, MAN 🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
*_Lyrics_*
Me and my friends drinking in an alley
Partners in substance abuse
Got out of jail and probation and i didnt look back to you
Got forty as the fastest (?) Disarming my Rachet
Back on a grey hound and a train to catch
_Im going somewhere diferent_
That sacred motion ,my devotion
Is leading me into the hardland
_I wanted to be an astronaut ; but so did everyone_
And I'm just not that smart (maaaan)
*(Beautiful Hamonica abuse)*
...
and now i am somewhere to safety,
And its awkward that sway(?) i pray
*For paranoia to go away*
(Guitar)
Away
I PRAYYY
*for paranoia to go away*
AWAAAY
(pls correct me if theres any mistakes english isnt my first language)
(Also kevin if youre reading this your music is so fucking great and youre going far man, you are im sure, we are all rotting for you my dude)
thanks for putting the lyrics
Rooting for you* hehehe.
But other than that, spot on 👍.
When you have sway? I think he just really weirdly pronounced why
@@kookycarter5295 nah he says thats fate
Kevin’s dreams are kinda similar to mine. Never really dreamy enough, but always scary enough to be considered a Nightmare.
the harmionica made me throw my entire house from laughing so hard
Still love coming back to this every once in awhile. Hope you’re doing good man.
Much love, appreciate the nice words. I'm dirt poor but I still make music and love life.
I forgot about this channel. I made this image and sent it on Discord. Made me really happy to seem them upload some songs with it as the image :)
I've never had a harmonica solo bring me to tears and then laughter before. It feels good to feel.
You should make a soundcloud!

This song fucks me up and I mean that in the best possible way
That poor harmonica. I love this song
Keep it up dad, love your work
I am so happy I found this song. You stay safe V-bird. stay strong.
Still my favorite song on this channel...
Came from Syrmor, like many other. Your story is just like your music, absolutely beautiful. Can't wait for you to blow up.
Many people may not know who you are yet, but I can tell, you are gonna rock this world like a hurricane and you will go so far. I believe in you, little star!
I've been looking for this song for like 30 minutes.. worth it
your music makes me happy.
God I love your music it has a sound that brings me back to something I think we all lost and want back
A modern day Bob Dylan, glad I got to hear you before you got big!
You are one of the reasons I got into guitar. Thank you
Dang man... What a life. You’re gonna be big, I can feel it. You’ve got an insane story behind you and you can hear that in your music. So many people are gonna listen to and love your music, I know I do. You’re gonna go far.
"I wanted to be an astronaut but so did everyone..." hella relatable
Someone give this man an award

I have been listening to this song for hours you are now my favorite artist
Literally just listened to this song nonstop all day, thank you this song genuinely made my day
wow i love listening to your music while I am crying but also it makes my day happy, thank you.
I remember when this first came out, I looped it and now I'm back to looping it, what a great song.
This man is amazing, the way he chirps gives me chills.
i feel like he does it all in one go, and its just, perfect.
Can’t find a lot of music that makes me think about life the way your music does, keep up the good work!
No matter how much my ears bleed cause of the harmonica, i still come back to listen to the song.
This is the only kind of music that helps me calm down :) Music that I can feel.
Your music never fails to bring me to tears. Thank you so much for sharing it with us
you ever listen to Mountain Goats? You sound like them. I like it.
I heard your story and I really want to hug you your awesome have a great life❤️
The helps me in ways that are unexplainable for me, but thank you for all this beautiful music.
I really love this. Thank you.
Your story is so touching man... you got me in tears😓
I really love you Kevin. You got all my support buddy.
Masterpiece
I love it so much!
You’re amazing!
Just saw your VR Chat interviewish kind of thing, you inspire a lot of people
pure gold
This is so amazing 🥺
I love your music man!
Lowkey cried while listening to this you are truly an inspiration
Am 2 years late for this great stuff
your story was very inspiring, man. much love

The two people who disliked this are mentally insane. Keep trucking on, your story really made me think and I want to wish you the absolute best life.
This is the best one
Thank you you have helped me so much with my paranoia too just keep living on
Great song!
Kevin at first i didn't like your music. But now it makes me feel brought back down to earth. Plus you do have a good voice
