If everything in the world seems like it’s traveling at 1,000 miles per hour these days, Ruel might just have a good solution!

The singer-songwriter is back today with his new single “LET THE GRASS GROW,” a personal commentary about the state of the world around him. Written alongside his friend Peter James Harding, the track builds on the themes of Ruel’s previous single “GROWING UP IS ______.” Life can be scary, but we’ve just gotta go through it.

Ruel spilled, “When I was writing this song with PJ, we were talking about things we think about that keep us up at night. The reality that the earth is heading in a terrifying direction, was a hard concept to fit in a song so we tried to make it so the song could be about a person too. The song’s theme is just to not force nature and let everything happen to us. It’s dark, but it’s a real thought I have often. I’m really proud of this song because, it gives you a little bit more to think about. It hits home a little more.”
