"Na razie" is Polish for "so long" and "for now" and the song is kind of me reckoning with and letting go of generational trauma. I'm 75% Polish, which, after my family is 4 generations out from immigrating to the US, that's strangely a lot of Polish DNA lol. I know I'm technically on a break from making music atm, but this song has been finished for months so I figured I'd release it. Sonically very inspired by ABBA, especially the piano and drums and Image by Thea inspired the orchestra hits :3 ꩜ CREDITS ꩜ Written by: Hart Produced by: Hart Cover Shot by: Galaxy (@-GalaxyKnight-) Cover Edited by: Hart Vocals by: Hart
