History
Childhood
Sultan was born in Montreal, Quebec. He was very interested in psychology as an adolescent, but in high school he grew anti-authoritarian and wasn't pleased with the fact he'd have to accept certain things in psychology. He got involved in playing punk at that time and ultimately stuck with music as what he wanted to do. At a very young age, he was able to recall lyrics with extreme precision and accuracy.

Waiting
I was waiting
Waiting for when the time was right
To make my move so I could be with you
And never spend a lonely night
And now I'm waiting
For you to pack your shit and leave
So get out of my life cause you're wasting my time
I need my room to breathe
Step one - It's over now I know you
Step two - I think i hate you
Step three - You're my new enemy oh yeah
I was waiting
You were waiting
For me to get home late one night
So we could work things out
We started running our mouths
We can't talk without a fight
And now you're waiting
To see just what I'd do
This may come as a surprise, I hope it opens your eyes
This song is my fuck you
Step one - It's over now I know you
Step two - I think I hate you
Step three - You're my new enemy oh yeah
And now it's over
And I don't even know her
And now its all over, over
