so if you can believe it i wrote these lyrics about my relationship with edm as a genre and consistently making and putting out edm. the song is essentially me having a conversation with part of my brain that’s telling me to quit making edm entirely and like move on from it in a sense, because that...
[Intro]
It felt right in the moment
But how could I ever blame you?
Caught up in the motions
A matter of time before I saw through
[Verse 1]
It seems bigger from a distance
Seeing all the things you've neglected
The sense of space is off
You're wondering if you're lost
You’ve forgotten what you’re missing
But the thing that kept restricting
Was the reason you’re here right now
You just had to let it out
[Pre-Chorus]
I made it my mission to forget my inhibitions
And I know I just dismissed it, but I realised thе sitch
Because if this is all I know how will I evеr let it show
That I've got what it takes to grow?
So now I loosen my grip
[Chorus]
It felt right in the moment
But how could I ever blame you?
I thought that the contrast was worth it
Caught up in the motions
A matter of time before I saw through
I'm cutting it back, but I'm offtrack without it
[Verse 2]
I know how hard it is to let go
When it’s something that you’ve always known
It feels like it’s engrained in your psyche
Now you can focus on the others
And nothing else will be a bother
You always wanted to narrow in on something
[Pre-Chorus]
Well maybe we can find a compromise
Because it’s not like this has ever really jeopardised
The ability to see how I’ve been living my life
So if you’re pushing this, I’m pushing back
Embrace both sides
[Chorus]
It felt right in the moment
But how could I ever blame you
I thought that the contrast was worth it
Caught up in the motions
A matter of time before I saw through
Im cutting it back but im offtrack without it
[Outro]
I made it my mission to forget my inhibitions
And I know I just dismissed it, but I realised the sitch
Because if this is all I know how will I ever let it show
That I've got what it takes to grow?
So now I loosen my grip
