Illy - Go lyrics
[Illy - Go lyrics]
Yeah
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
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
