[Intro]
Don't feel ready, ready to erect
My back's still broken from life's effect
I still think about the words that you said
[Verse 1]
Don't feel ready, ready to erect
My back's still broken from life's effect
I still think about the words that you said
I wonder is it true, or is it what you meant?
The damage is done, but there's ringing in my head
A desert storm is approaching from the left
I gets no sleeps, no eats and no rest
Covered in violence with love 'round my neck
Life is so boring when you'rе already the best
What's thе story when you go beyond the edge?
[Pre-Chorus]
Place an image in your head
The silver in your eyes
I'm no longer having
Such a terrible time
[Chorus]
Holy, moly, you'd better take your chance
I'm here for one night only, no procrastinating
Holy, moly
You'd better take your chance
I'm here for one night only
No procrastinating
[Post-Chorus]
Oh won't you come over? Come over, come over
Better grab your chance
With both hands if you want it
[Verse 2]
The shit you created, makes you proud of the stink
When your story ends, the youth shall come
Time is over, time to die
Time pass over, when winter brings the hope
Joy shall follow, when winter brings the hope
Joy, more joy, more joy
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't feel ready, ready to erect
My back's still broken from all life's effect
I still think about the words that you said
Oh, you said, oh, you said
You said, you said
Don't feel ready, ready to erect
My back's still broken from all life's effect
I still think about the words that you said
Oh, you said, oh, you said
Oh, you said, oh, you said
[Chorus]
Holy, moly, you'd better take your chance
I'm here for one night only, no procrastinating
Holy, moly
You'd better take your chance
I'm here for one night only, no procrastinating
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, won't you come over? Come over, come over
Better grab your chance
With both hands if you want to
Before we're damned
[Outro]
Let's go beyond the edge
To another plain
So much more to gain
Let's go beyond the edge
To another plane
So much more to gain

Alloysious Massaquoi:
It’s a contrast between light and dark. You’re forcing two things that don’t make sense together. You have a pop song and some weird beat, and you’re forcing them to have this conversation, to do something, and then ‘Holy Moly’ comes out of that. It’s two different worlds comi...
