Go - Illy

What a difference sixteen months make

I couldn’t fit it in a thousand status updates

Foot to floor at these speeds, dangerous to pump brakes

Blur of hotel rooms, runway lights and pub names

Sunday flights hidden behind dark shades

Live for the days between «can't wait» and «can't take it anymore»

Waiting till it’s «can't wait» again

For now we can make a name, later we can make amends, okay?

Took it to show-stopper, from show-stealer, from show-starter

Worked my little arse off for it, I did

Juggled uni and music, pretty much hit both targets

One change if I had my time again?

Go harder

Double the workload, opportunist to the bone

Shit, I’m opening the windows up in case the doors close

The past is the past, the new days rose

And what’s next, only god knows

And on that note

Welcome to the chase

On your marks (on your marks)

So where you at?

Well, as it stands, I’m making progress

And as if money ain’t an object

I put my eggs in a basket, sitting on a bullet train in the pouring hail

So either I’ma break some records, or I’m sure to fail

Belief can be a nuisance, present on both sides

Genius and stupid, it’s down to if you reach what you’re pursuin'

Ain’t much between reasons and excuses

And they’ll think your crazy arse can’t achieve it till you do it

But let suckers fence sit, hoping they don’t pick the wrong side

I’ve always said I’ll back a good trip over a long ride

I keep my vision tight, never lost sight

What’s twenty-twenty if you’re cross-eyed?

It feels like I’m so beyond noticing the road

That my expectations can’t be the only thing that’s grown

With the first I stepped out of every shadow that I know

And with the second, I’m about to cast some shadows of my own

And on that note

Welcome to the chase

Welcome to the chase

Ready set

Ready set

Yeah

I tip my hat to the past, seize the moment, look ahead

Head up in the clouds, keep an eye on where I put my steps

'Cause from the things we didn’t mean to things we never said

At times, it seems like it’s an inch between contentment and regret

Getting my vanilla sky on, jumping off the ledge

Rocky running up the steps, feel like «Hurricane» Carter

'Cause the truth sets free, but it’s tougher to accept

The one thing worse than hate’s when they love you then forget

Don’t forget me, feel whatever way but feel deeply

'Cause indifference the cousin of sleep, dream sweetly

But speak freely, be open, this as much yours as mine

From the second you owned it, I hope you find

Beauty in the flaws, obsession in the finer strokes

My heart extends beyond the thank yous and the liner notes

Art vs science, my canvas, your microscope

And only god knows

So on that note

Go
