about

I wrote this track when I started thinking about the state of mind some content creators, such as myself, have felt when they look back on what they presume were the best years of their creative lives. The feeling of having felt like one has peaked at a specific point while trying to cultivate another successful creative venture.

I have felt this way many times, and most of those feelings as expressed in this track.

lyrics

Here we go
We're taking shots in the dark
Maybe we'll score something this time
We're throwing shit to the wall
and hoping something sticks
I'll bet it all on this one

We will rise

I'm gonna show you that everyone is wrong
These sentiments... They might just blind me
but I can still see just enough to fight

yea nothings guaranteed
count your blessings
get on your knees
hope to god that you'll grow wise
before you start to realize

Where do we go when we are all washed up
and everything that we worked for is dying?
Yea all our hard work will not pay off
This goes to show that there is no sense in trying
Yea I don't know where I will go from here
And if I said that I ever knew
then I would be lying

Here we go
All alone
And we're digging back on all the better times
When we all got it right

GAAAH

THIS CANNOT BE
HAVE I REALLY LIVED MY BEST?
THERE'S SO MUCH MORE TO ME
DESPITE MY FAILED LAME ATTEMPTS

How can we move on when the best is now behind?
It's behind us
Did we ever keep up with the wave or did it just wash us under?

There's something that I think we outta believe in
But I don't believe it tonight

Oh I envy those who continue a singular design
One focus to invest in to bring you your desires
But I cannot make up my mind it's so hard to decide
Decide on whether I choose one passion and let them die
