Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hell is a door with two frames
I'll never make it out
See I was born with two names
We never speak aloud
Now if I could write one more song
I would lie a thousand times before the bridges end
[Prechorus]
Coming out the back with our hands held high
We're tryna see our faces in lines we write
Never woulda dreamed of this life
I think we got a chance you and I
[Chorus]
Ride with me, ride with me
Over the hills
Take pride with me, pride with me
This could be real said
All my heroes are dead or gone crazy
(i think i'll go crazy)
[Verse 2]
I never had a dream come true
I never wished on a star
I never could forget your voice
And I will never go far
[Prechorus]
Coming out the back with our hands held high
I'm tryna see your face in the lines I write
Gonna keep the voices inside
Carry all your songs in my mind
[Verse 1]
Hell is a door with two frames
I'll never make it out
See I was born with two names
We never speak aloud
Now if I could write one more song
I would lie a thousand times before the bridges end
[Prechorus]
Coming out the back with our hands held high
We're tryna see our faces in lines we write
Never woulda dreamed of this life
I think we got a chance you and I
[Chorus]
Ride with me, ride with me
Over the hills
Take pride with me, pride with me
This could be real said
All my heroes are dead or gone crazy
(i think i'll go crazy)
[Outro]
Give me somethin to believe in
Cause all these songs are playing in heaven

In an era dominated by manufactured noise, M&O fka Milo & Otis have carved out a musical haven for listeners seeking an authentic respite. Jamila Woods (“Milo”—vocals, loop pedal, poetry) and Owen Hill (“Otis” — bass guitar, imagination, production) are the two behind this earthy sound, which harks back to the heyday of R&B with a blend of what can only be labeled “Adventure Soul.”
