sun eater

＂sun eater is a reminder from dre levant to bathe in sunlight like a cat on a porch. levant manages to weave light, love, hope, and the thread of darker times, into a blanket he wraps you in. sun eater is the optimistic voice of a resilient veteran of the past telling you that it’s okay to go outside and play. levant’s technical brilliance shines through in the tender verses, breathtakingly honest and heartbreakingly hopeful. levant asks if you can bottle the sun, and then offers you a drink of celestial forever. The warmth of levant’s light is felt in every line, and it feels like summer.＂
