MUNCH 03:06
When on sem break I hang with the bazu Munch on maccas Talk shit out the wazoo Barely fighting That’s rarer than wagyu Bet you wish you could Hangout with my crew Say you like me But we nothing like you Not today but maybe Back in the day In the 2014 I was 13 and like you I was confident Spoke in no haiku I used all my chest All my best interests To confess that my height dude Isn’t anything to have a fright to I’m half Tongan but I will not bite you Guess that’s the way The cookie crumbles Can’t get stuck on it Or else I’ll fumble Back, back in my old ways Just escape and throw back to my old days It was so insane I was much bigger That scale said 117 Prayed with my nan every night Felt my family was tight Never said no more heaven All love to my brethren’s Past and present Future got no more room For some let ins God got all my letters But he hasn’t said anything Life was so good Didn’t need any shrink To go look at and Just confess Every lil thing that has got me stressed Know I’m not the best Sure not the worst Is it real selfish to feel that I’m cursed? Create and disperse All these personal words I turn it to sonics For people to bump to Watch when I write on my script You’ll come jump on my dick Cannot wait to show you What my mind has been up to aye. 67634 Eshays Look, let’s try this again When on sem break I hang with the bazu Munch on maccas Talk shit out the wazoo Barely fighting That’s rarer than wagyu Bet you wish you could Hangout with my crew Say you like me But we nothing like you Not today but maybe Other days I feel lost and astray But right now I feel comforted Vibe with my homies We talk with no harnesses uh One to one We ponder on that easy Talk on dreams to passing cava Up in Fiji Dreams of Spain Asturias living breezy Drinking auga Kissing bitches in bikinis If we get bored We change the course like completely Fuck the end go right Back to the beginning Hot or cold it don’t matter As long as we don’t stop the chatter Uh Dream on to keep on the big conversa-tion That we run just 
to escape the day Feeling tired hit the hay but Mamacita you can stay Uh wanna cook steak But we keep munching tapas Fuck all this alcohol Give me that agua Feeling so hot Like we sipping sriracha One more, we limping we La Cucarachas Cha cha Like that You know We scared Sip this Right here I don’t Want to I’m just Not into Not into That How can you be Not into Not into That For now, just please Be into Be into That You under pressure now When on sem break I hang with the bazu Munch on maccas Talk shit out the wazoo Barely fighting That’s rarer than wagyu Bet you wish you could Yeah Bet you wish you could Hangout with my crew Bet you wish you could Hangout with my my Bet you wish you could Hangout with My my my my Crew

HEART 02:51
You will not lose- (Wooo) Not if you use Your heart Your heart Nah I can’t hear anything All that you do (Turn me up) All that goes through Your heart (Yeah) Your heart Hmmm Let’s go! Back to the bends just Back deeper than a reaper Just reaping life from her hands It’s them 
Back back of the line Back in the back of the back Of the mind thoughts that Back up sobriety Social drinking to lying it's my Thoughts all the time, uh Kicking the bucket it’s On your list this sipping piss Not my business Got no coping methods Got no time to just rhyme Thoughts all the time got no listens You just stuck all alone And I can’t handle the tension this Sucks Cause you know that I’m Burning inside Wish there was a way to keep you Alive! Family trauma’s and burdens Make it difficult to try To make you smile now Wipe your tears don’t cry This is life But I never used to say that Naive just a child really thought that I could Carry what you styled As what’s for the best When it was really just denial For my broken family rhetoric And short term smiles Took a while to get it But I got it now Nineteen’s the charm Fuck a third time Times just a harmful Deadly Piece of shit remedy For fomo and life hacks Hard to see you virtually The real you is priceless Cry every time I heard you Lying causing typhoons Laying down usually Horizontal like hyphens All your hopes and dreams 
weighing on me they be stifling Promise what you preach is Seeping into my own conscious Yeah But I know It wasn’t always bad Know I’m stubborn But they are still the best years I ever had Didn’t know shit Little Tongan kid catch me geeking out Over dibs on them fish n chips Ceda creaming soda Leaking out while I’m trekking down Back and forth and out To the south side of the west-side Bumming out The front of the take away store Shit was cracka lad Hung out with my Cousins We stayed out until the skies went zap Boom, Pow Lyrebird was so dodgy Sometimes had the neighbors asking me if I want lollies Fuck we took it and we booked it Ran away called em pedos Hocked a razor from the posh cunts And hid out in the meadows Daydreaming What’s life got in store for us gleaming Lil youngins still beaming off them Kirk brand fizzy drinks? Hiding from our uncles
 Catch em stealthy with their sneaky links Ran out from the granny flat Stayed out until the skies went pink I find myself reminiscing A lot These days are getting bleaker Steeper wreaking of weaker Depleting dots Connecting em Finding answers And seeking em Testing experimenting Hoping I’ll live to tweak at them Hoping my future’s looking Like I once dreamt and thought it would One day your home is hectic Next it’s looking like (Hollywood) Conflicts are getting crazier Too much for my sanity So this one is for my family I choose peace over vanity My- (You will not lose) Not if you use Your heart (That was it) Your heart Keep it rolling Yeah Not if you use your-

about

my debut EP is out now. the theatrical cut… ZION GARCIA. that’s me. 21. proud Tongan, Spanish, Australian artist. blessed and focused. about to finish uni. this is everything I am. this is everything this part of my life has wanted to say. even as I write this post, I can’t even begin to articulate how much life went into this project. endless revisions, sonic detours, and nights of feeling incompetent and insecure of my visions. sometimes it’s hard tryna find where you fit in the grand schemes of things. however, I’m forever grateful for my beautiful friends, family, and partner, for being the best support network, and pushing me to get through the craziest times in my life and double down on this project. To @petedeghaim for the insane mix/master, @sollyywood on the overall support, and @par1ss.jpg on the artworks, thank you for taking me over the finish line. It was crazy to debut the project last night at my first headline show, playing with my brothers as @givemeflowrrs, and having it all at @phoenixcentralpark. just a crazy surreal time rn. too much shit I wanna say. but, this is it. this is my formal introduction. If you listen to this, I hope you enjoy. 🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This one’s for lil old me. This one’s for WESTERN SYDNEY. This one’s for the future. SELF-TITLED ERA ZG. much love. 12/10/23
