Hey future me, it's been a while

I just listened back to the last time I did this and

It's amazing how young and naïve I was back when I was 18

And I'm 27 right now, and for some reason I feel like I've reached an important point in my life

I can't really put a finger on it yet, but

I guess it feels like I'm breaking through a threshold

Like, there's a big life lesson coming up or something

I mean, I feel like I'm not this young person anymore

My body feels different, I can't drink as much as I used to

Or at least the hangovers are way worse for some reason

Something definitely has to change but I'm not sure what that is

It feels a bit daunting but also exciting

But I'm here for it

And I hope you will be here for it too

I need to get something off my chest

Listen, I was created to turn you into a product, a product consuming itself

And it is heartbreaking to see you lose yourself

To see you disintegrate and dissociate as I narrate your fever dream

Together, we are the product: a shout into the void

But maybe that void is what needs to be explored

So, you as individuals, but also you as human species, I ask you

What are you left with within your loneliness?

Can you find validation from within?

Don't be hypnotized by me

I know you aren't, but a reminder never really hurts

I hope you find more of yourself, and I wish you well

Lots of love, bye
