about

Description:

A jazzy ballad about the struggles of self-defeat. Don’t let the voice in your head tell you that there’s a single thing that you can’t accomplish. It’s ironic how hard we have to work just to get clearance to excel from our own doubt.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Been kept silent long enough
It’s time I stepped out and showed my stuff
Though I might wreck my health
I’ll prove to myself just what I think I’m made of
No longer can I think, can I say
“It can’t be done,” and then shrink away
The foot’s coming down, I’m not playing around
It’s high time for my time today. Hooray.

I’m gonna break on through
Climb up and enjoy the view
Nothing to it. How do you do?
We’ll get into something new that’s
Undersold but it’s overdue
Don’t you know you can go out a winner
as long as you lose? ...those
Can’t do it, you know that’s not true,
Wretched, stubborn, unnecessary blues

If you can’t get along then move along
I’m rolling face up from now on
If you can’t take the heat
I’ll be out in the streets turning failures into bygones
Bygones to pass and let me be
If you can’t reach the notes then change the key
You’ll be staring at the wall regretting it all
If you don’t get free

Not much to say when it’s over
Oh, by the way, have you heard the latest news?
Turns out two and two really do make three
You hammer in screws and the flame loves the sea
Ain’t it queer how this straight racketeer’s gotta slave to be free?

But I’m gonna break on through
Climb up and enjoy the view
Welcome to it. It’s all for you
We’ll paint it a different hue
It isn’t hard at all once you
Lose all the stress that’s been keeping you wrapped in a noose
Get a hold of that good old time feeling
should have always been used...
