about

About You is the musical moniker for Max Poscente. The song “Mona” (Mother Nature abbreviated) is the lead single on About You’s upcoming sophomore album and is a personification of the climate crisis. The music draws you in with provocative and alluring language to ultimately reveal it's true meaning -- how we are destroying our planet for material gain. The aim of the song is to both bring an awareness to the climate crisis and inspire action towards sustainable futures.

lyrics

Mona don't you love me?
Mona do you feel lucky?
Cause I feel lucky as a mother,
From one star lover to another.
Mona is it too late?
I hit the gas you hit the brakes.
Well sometimes, I'm like you,
And Sometimes I'm like me.
Yeah sometimes, I'm like you,
And Sometimes I'm like.

I wanna sit inside your shade,
And make me misbehave.
Won't you say, won't you say my name?
I wanna hear your wind moan,
And to know you as my home.
Won't you say Mona?

Mona don't you worry,
I'll take you to the symphony.
As long as you remember,
Our soliloquy —
That sometimes, I'm like you,
And Sometimes I'm like me.
Yeah sometimes, I'm like you,
And Sometimes I'm like.

I wanna sit inside your shade,
And make me misbehave.
Won't you say, won't you say my name?
I wanna hear your wind moan,
And to know you as my home.
Won't you say Mona?

I could always sleep when I'm dead,
I could always laugh instead.
But the second I start to fall,
I'll catch myself in front of you all.

I wanna sit inside your shade,
Won't you say Mona?
Hear your wind moan,
And to know you as my home.
Won't you say Mona?
Sit inside your shade,
And make me misbehave.
Won't you say Mona?
