A 2021 breakthrough single that captures the frustration and longing of creative isolation.
What sticks is how the geographic escape to 'California, to Paris' functions less as a destination and more as a rhythm.
The place names become a chant against stagnation, a simple refusal to stay put in a feeling.

I don't wanna work but I wanna ride / I don't want love but I don't wanna die
What sticks is how the geographic escape to 'California, to Paris' functions less as a destination and more as a rhythm. The place names become a chant against stagnation, a simple refusal to stay put in a feeling. The lyric trusts that repetition to carry the fatigue, rather than explaining it.
The repeated line 'I don't wanna work but I wanna ride / I don't want love but I don't wanna die' feels like someone pacing a room. It's not about ambition versus laziness, but about being stuck between needing to create and being sick of the machinery around it. The desire to just 'ride', to move without the grind, answers a specific exhaustion that comes after too many people tell you 'you're the one.'
It's a compact confession of creative paralysis, where both work and love feel like traps. The contradiction isn't solved; it's just stated, which makes the longing for California or Paris feel more urgent.
The way 'galsurok eoryeopdanikka' ('the more I go, the harder it gets') hangs in the air after each 'California to Paris' refrain, it turns the escape into a question.
