Millyz and Statik Selektah dropped off their joint project Saints & Sinners this past week, and "Glum" is one of the best tracks off the project. Featuring Annalese, "Glum" focuses Millyz battle with mental health, even if he doesn't say it directly. The somber guitar riff sets an anxious and melancholy mood as Annalese lays down haunting vocals about being alone, feeling no emotion, and dealing with stress.
Millyz admits that drugs rarely help, that he has been distanced from his family, and compares himself to a woman he meets at the bar who cuts herself just to feel real pain. The content and delivery are reminiscent of Eminem's earlier work, although Millyz is able to keep his aggression at bay while he deals with feeling glum.
Quotable Lyrics
The drugs don't heal, but they bandage
I'm all alone, and I'm damaged
Starved for some hope like I'm famished
Tryna stay afloat
Lately, I don't speak with my family
