Description: Enjoy this chill Toki Pona synthpop tune! (Is it synthwave? Coldwave? Who knows? 🤔) I'll talk about the meaning of the lyrics later since there's a bit of an ongoing contest among friends. Feel free to join in and share your interpretation in the comments—what do you think this song is about? Big thanks to my friend Ganda for inspiring these lyrics. Recording and experimenting with them was an absolute pleasure! jan li jo ala jo e kon pi toki ni? ijo li awen len tan ni: jan pona mi li wile lukin e ona tan wawa ona. ni la, mi toki ala e ale pi toki mi. tenpo kama la mi pana e kon ale.
