about

Born of the frustration & confusion of what to do in tough periods, this song inspires the warrior within to rise up.

As an inspiring anthem to overcome any Covid-lockdown doldrums, this riveting fusion of lapsteel slide guitar & catchy pop hooks over trip-hop beats lays the foundation for cleverly crafted words of wisdom as a panacea for these unprecedented times.

This song was recorded in a completely off grid, eco-friendly studio deep in the subtropical rainforests in the hinterland behind Byron Bay, NSW, Australia.

lyrics

We're living in unprecedented times,
Somnambulism is everywhere,
It's like a prison,
These lockdown crimes,
Tribalism is in the air...

But Sometimes,
Sometimes you have to...

Keep your head up,
Stay Strong,
Let go,
Move on.

So much division,
The fear is primed,
Polarisation creates despair,
The intensity I find online,
Creates the illusion,
That no one cares...

But Sometimes,
Sometimes you have to...

Keep your head up,
Stay Strong,
Let go,
Move on.
