about

Enter the grey saga. This is my first collab with another vocalist for my solo music. Kirin Kira and I met on Tiktok. Both of us are massive fans of the duet group $uicideboy$ so for our collab, we took inspiration from the contrast Ruby and Scrim creates and put our individual characteristics of Hip-Hop, Dark Trap and Atmospheric Extreme Metal over it.

Our friend from Ukraine Helli made us this AMV lyric video from one of our favorite anime Tokyo Ghoul showcasing Kaneki's battles and struggles which I feel perfectly reflects the feeling of this song.

Kirin came to me to duet on Hollowed Out which is about the emptiness you feel as the day to day struggle becomes overwhelming and you just can't seem to catch a break. All of us go through this one way or another so we wanted to write a song to help you keep moving forward despite the never-ending challenges you face. You are not alone.

lyrics

Cave your face in asphalt!
For coming out your mouth, you can eat the gravel!
my demons talk a lot. You’re not winning this battle!
I’m looking at the mirror, I’m still broken and fractured!
Stuck up in a vicious cycle, cannot get out, I made this home a hell
All these thoughts, surrounding me, they keep my feelings down,
The blank expression I keep on my face means I’m hollowed out,
My end is not too far from grief I think I see it now.

I'm hollowed out
So hollowed out

Hollowed out, i am hollowed out
I am muthafuckin near
End of my existence
And I am hollowed out, yea

Hollowed out, i am hollowed out
I am muthafuckin near
End of my existence
And I am hollowed out

Ye these thoughts they killin me
I’ll slowly rot away and no god’s light be savin me
Don’t worry about my soul
The grind takes control
So I’m always on the go and I ride alone
For a demon doesn’t know
When to stop and drop the pressure
As the world stop and stare
At the blank expression of a
Hollowed man in the mirror
So fuck it I’ll bare it all for you muthafuckaz to see
They say no rest here for the wicked
So the dark blessin me

Corruption came with a damn cost
Mouth of war, everything i say is lethal
Battling my way, through a world that is mental
Staring words, writings everywhere on the wall
Imma break it down
even tho
everything the same everyday
I don’t fear
what I feel
there’s a mystery of pain
I’ve discovered who i am and i will not dare look away,
all is void, bound in the empty space

I'm hollowed out
So hollowed out

Hollowed out, I am hollowed out
I am muthafuckin near
End of my existence
And I am hollowed out, yea

Hollowed out, I am hollowed out
I am muthafuckin near
End of my existence
And I am hollowed out
