"Serenity Song," which originally appeared on Benny Bleu’s 2019 album Warm Prickly, describes the challenge of coping with the sudden loss of a loved one. Through its poignant and contemplative melodies, the music captures a sense of quiet reflection and carries a touch of vintage blues. “You can try to tell a tree that it's rooted in rocky soil / Like you can try to tell a truck that it uses too much oil / But that tree is gonna grow and that truck is gonna go / And you'll be left with all intentions spoiled.”
