Shattered Self (ft. Kasane Teto & Yi Xi)

thank you, low quality spinning teto head I got really inspired by the recent Digital Stars 2026 performance I attended, so I decided to make my vocal synth debut! Sometimes you just have to be some person on the internet writing songs and having fun :) Spotify ▶ https://open.spotify.com/track/5PawVSh3BPVKylXpjbmcjf?si=cdb3d7df3b654f0a Bandcamp ▶ https://kosmicwaffle.bandcamp.com/track/shattered-self-ft-kasane-teto-yi-xi SoundCloud ▶ https://soundcloud.com/kosmicwaffle/shattered-self Ko-Fi ▶ https://ko-fi.com/kosmicwaffle - credits: vocals: Kasane Teto & Yi Xi song & MV: kosmicwaffle all software used: FL Studio ▶ instrumental, mixing & mastering SynthV ▶ vocal synths (Kasane Teto & Yi Xi) Godot 4.6 ▶ 3D models, animation & lyrics DaVinci Resolve ▶ lyrics & editing - lyrics: [VERSE 1 - Kasane Teto] Raising silence in the violence Lighting up the progeny that I succumb to Can I be anything or not at all? Help, my mind is screaming out, “make this me!” Finding paisley patterns in the dissonance Lighting up the memories that I have spun through Maybe I’m everything or naught at all Let my mind rewind and run wild and free [CHORUS - Kasane Teto] I, what does it mean to be I, again? Throw out everything that my Shattered self used to outline But I don’t think that I mind What does it mean I’m alive, again? Try to pin something that my Shattered heart used to design But I don’t think that’s mine [VERSE 2 - Kasane Teto & Yi Xi] Blazing fires in the passionate I can be who I can be if I just run too Try to become something or not at all I’m a canvas, paint me out, make this me All the rainbow flowers in my mind are kissed By the sunswept field of dawn that I belong to I can be anything or naught at all Tell me off, I’m frolicking, wild and free Call my bluff, I’m becoming, all of me [CHORUS - Kasane Teto] I, what does it mean to be I, again? Throw out everything that my Shattered self used to outline But I don’t think that I mind What does it mean I’m alive, again? Try to pin something that my Shattered heart used to design But I don’t think I’m an I I don’t need to live a lie again Gather everything that my Shattered self can still outline And I know that I don’t mind I know what it means to fly again Frame a picture of the sky Shattered glass begins to shine For the very first time
