“Faded Childhood” captures the blurred line between innocence and reality. The layered, melting faces symbolize how childhood memories lose their sharpness over time — still bright in color but worn and distorted by experience. The heavy drips and cracked edges represent how time weighs down even the happiest moments. It’s playful at first glance but leaves you with a feeling of nostalgia, sadness, and reflection, true to Datkid’s raw street-inspired style.
