About Northern Attitude
On “Northern Attitude“, Kahan uses his upbringing in Vermont, a cold, harsh place, as a backdrop for a lifestyle focused on keeping one’s self and loved ones alive and comfortable through routine and physical preparation, at the expense of connection, community, and “living” over survival. In a moment of self-reflection, Kahan observes how hollow and lonely a life this mindset can result in one living, and although recognizing he may not be able to shed this mindset quickly .
Northern Attitude Lyrics
[00:15.54] Breathin' in, breathin' out
[00:19.30] How you been? Settled down?
[00:23.27] You feelin' right? You feelin' proud?
[00:27.26] How are your kids? Where are they now?
[00:31.07] You build a boat, you build a life
[00:35.17] You lose your friends, you lose your wife
[00:39.13] You settle into routine
[00:43.40] Where are you? What does it mean?
[00:50.31]
[01:07.13] If I get too close
[01:11.10] And I'm not how you hoped
[01:15.02] Forgive my northern attitude
[01:18.03] Oh, I was raised out in the cold
[01:22.84] If the sun don't rise
[01:26.74] 'Til the summertime
[01:30.61] Forgive my northern attitude
[01:33.66] Oh, I was raised on little light
[01:44.68] You bought some -, you search online
[01:48.76] You're gettin' lost, you're gettin' high
[01:52.79] All alone, late in life
[01:56.67] Scared to live, scared to die
[02:00.65] You build a boat, you build a life
[02:04.58] You lose your kids, you lose your wife
[02:08.54] You settle down, you're feelin' lost
[02:12.52] You're gettin' stoned, then kickin' rocks (three, four)
[02:19.69]
[02:36.32] If I get too close
[02:40.58] And I'm not how you hoped
[02:44.37] Forgive my northern attitude
[02:47.44] Oh, I was raised out in the cold
[02:52.26] If the sun don't rise
[02:56.15] 'Til the summertime
[02:59.94] Forgive my northern attitude
[03:02.80] Oh, I was raised on little light
[03:06.96]
[03:39.56] If you get too close
[03:43.41] And I'm not how you hoped
[03:47.57] Forgive my northern attitude
[03:50.73] Oh, I was raised out in the cold
[03:55.08] If the sun don't shine
[03:58.91] 'Til the summertime
[04:02.54] Forgive my northern attitude
[04:05.52] Oh, I was raised on little light
[04:10.38]
[04:21.21] Sick
[04:23.46]
[00:19.30] How you been? Settled down?
[00:23.27] You feelin' right? You feelin' proud?
