'Mora' - Sonny

'Mora' by Sonny. Taken from the Gypsyhook EP

[@poddingit7474]

The absolute best thing about this song is you can tell it’s him form the backing track. The music is the background basically became a template for his future fucking anthems. What a man.

Song is about a BJ obviously

[@newbermuda]

Sounds like a bad relationship. Despite coming from a broken family, their partner perpetuates the same type of abuse and neglect they received, and also manages to have an inflated ego. Sonny, being at the brunt of these behaviors, gets tired and eventually gives em a taste of their own medicine. It's an endless cycle; "now doesn't that bring you back to the beginning?". Mora in latin means to stay or linger. Could also be a sick diss track. Or introspective criticism of Sonny, himself.
