Musically heavier than most of the songs on Salad Days, DeMarco mixes several things on this song. Starting from the topic about the Chamber of Reflection in the Mason Culture and his weird relationship with the fame portrayed in his “Macumentary”, Pepperoni Playboy.

The synth-part is borrowed from Japanese artist Shigeo Sekito’s song “The World II (ザ・ワードⅡ / セキトウ・シゲオ)”, which was released in 1975. Mac’s version was then sampled by Wiz Khalifa in “Smoke Chambers” and Mr. Waves in “Smooth Departure”.

The music video for the song contains the masonic compass and square with a G (stands for God or geometry). Which fits the imagery used in this song.

This is not the first time Mac has used masonic symbols, his first band Makeout Videotape’s album Ying Yang had many of those on its cover (the Eye of Providence, the square and the 33).

“It’s a room people go into before you’re initiated into freemasonry, It’s like a meditation room, and they lock you in there for a period of time. The purpose is to reflect on what you’ve done in your life already and move on from it. I think that’s what I did in this chamber of reflection right here.“ - Pitchfork
