Anyway please like and subscribe. Thank you for listening!

I dug the track.
Like the vibe and dynamics; especially when the vocals come in strong and at the right time.
I wish I could express myself like that vocally.

Maybe fade it from the 4min mark out to 4:10.
The extra part at the end is cool but I felt fulfilled as a listener at the 4min mark (the song provided a really good high-point & release by that point) and the following 10 seconds lends itself perfectly to a fade out.

The intro is fine (and there are no rules) but the current duration might be better in a full length album context. As a single, maybe amend the length of the intro a bit.
You know people and their attention span on the internet these days.
I like the vibe when the vocals come in and suggest you bring that in sooner.
But nothing wrong with laying the full scope of ideas down. Makes for a nice & complete production reference.

As far as the recording, I know it's a bedroom demo. Nevertheless, the song came across and I felt it~

Thank you for sharing keep up the expressive writing!
