about

I haven't released anything new in 2022, so I decided to release a liquid Drum & Bass version of an unreleased song. Yes, a remix before the original. Out the day before my birthday, so I'm calling it my birthday mix.

lyrics

They say you’re only young once
You’re crashing, you’re running, right out of time
A ticking time bomb going off
Just slow down, don’t worry, it’s all in your mind

It’s a privilege to make mistakes and learn along the way
One day you’ll realise it
Not every day serious
Keep your spirits up
Be gentle with yourself
Because you deserve it

Who says you have to be strong
Can’t move with all that weight on top of you
Who says you have to be so perfect
A little mess could never stop you
Time’s always on your side
And everything will be so wonderful
You just have to keep believing
Don’t let that pressure mount on top of you

They say you’re only young once
You’re crashing, you’re running, right out of time
A ticking time bomb going off
Just slow down, don’t worry, it’s all in your mind

They say you’re only young once
You’re crashing, you’re running, right out of time
A ticking time bomb going off
Just slow down, don’t worry, it’s all in your mind

It’s an honour when
You wake up and you have another chance
In a world you know
Just to laugh and play and waste a day
Even if you come undone
You will keep on growing

Run to where the waves are
Let them baptise and wash right over you
Forget about all your fears now
If they get in don’t let them trouble you
Hold on to what is pure
Don’t let it go cause it will carry you
And remember who you are
Cause they’ll always try to take it away from you

They say you’re only young once
Just slow down, don’t worry, it’s all in your mind
