“Solace” was premiered on the BBC Radio 1 show by Daniel P. Carter on May 13, 2018 only 5 days before the release of Dream State’s second EP, Recovery EP. The song’s lyrics act as a helping hand to a person struggling with self-doubt and provide reassurance of their own self-worth.
When the lyrical...
[Verse 1]
I find solace
Confidence in the words I rhyme
I predict my illusions
In my own place and in my own time
Pick up, pack your pieces
I can't deal with this, we're leaving
We're beyond this whole realization
That these four walls, they were all just built from fear
[Pre-Chorus]
And these four walls, they cannot hold you here
You're just in a rut
[Chorus]
Don't let yourself fall apart
Don't listen to what they say, it isn't true
It's okay to not feel alright
This is your place, this is your time
Let's try to tell this right
[Verse 2]
Let's be honest
We know you can't control this
We're not here just to exist
There must be more to this
So give us a better day, a better place
Away from here
Just give us a better place, a better day
A better day, a better way
[Verse 3]
Let’s dance through the fire
Smile through our tears
Elevate ourselves higher
And face up to fears
Get out of this rut
[Chorus]
Don't let yourself fall apart
Don't listen to what they say, it isn't true
It's okay to not feel alright
This is your place, this is your time
[Bridge]
And I won't let you fall apart
Nothing that they said was true from the start
And everything will be okay
This is your life
This is your time
[Chorus]
Don't let yourself fall
Don't listen to what they say, it isn't true
It's okay to not feel alright
This is your place, this is your time
Dream State released Solace on Sun May 13 2018.
