Earthbound 03:29
So far I've been defying gravity Aimlessly drifting through the galaxy But now you got me earthbound Now I'm falling like the stars, and I'm moving at the speed of sound It just ain't been the same, since I saw your face Cuz I can't erase it from my memories I try to fight, but I keep burning up I can't let this get the best of me Now I'm delirious, so mysterious Had to get a second look at you You're a shooting star, but I'm falling fast enough That I just might catch up with you Feels like I'm dreaming but it's surreal And I just can't shake the lucidity If this is just emotional... Then how come this crush is affecting me physically? I try to hide it, I can't deny it Losing grip of my life But it's so enticing that I can't help But just go along for the ride So far I've been defying gravity Aimlessly drifting through the galaxy But now you got me earthbound Now I'm falling like the stars, and I'm moving at the speed of sound It just ain't been the same, since I saw your face Cuz I can't erase it from my memories I try to fight, but I keep burning up I can't let this get the best of me You got me all shook up like an earthquake Baby you a ten on the Richter But not in a bad way, baby understand I'm just saying that I gotta get with ya I can't believe, it's like a fantasy Now I think that I'm dreaming Cuz you could take my life that's so empty And then I see you and you give it meaning Gotta be magic, cuz I can't fathom How you can be so enchanting And the minute the beat starts, I look into your eyes And then our souls start dancing I try to hide it, I can't deny it Losing grip of my life But it's so enticing that I can't help But just go along for the ride So far I've been defying gravity Aimlessly drifting through the galaxy But now you got me earthbound Now I'm falling like the stars, and I'm moving at the speed of sound It just ain't been the same, since I saw your face Cuz I can't erase it from my memories I try to fight, but I keep burning up I can't let this get the best of me And I just want to celebrate, cuz I finally found the one that's right for me And if they wanna hate, let 'em hate Cuz whenever we're together I feel like it's just you and me You must be a goddess, cuz everything you do you do so gracefully And you know that you the hottest Must've been crafted by an artist and so perfectly So far I've been defying gravity Aimlessly drifting through the galaxy But now you got me earthbound Now I'm falling like the stars, and I'm moving at the speed of sound It just ain't been the same, since I saw your face Cuz I can't erase it from my memories I try to fight, but I keep burning up I can't let this get the best of me I just ain't been the same, since I saw your face...

And if today is all I got, how come I just can't feel it? Man, if there is such a thing as time, I swear I don't believe it Cuz if I could freeze time, I would freeze it right away And never have to say goodbye to everything that makes today feel like today All the moments that we gotta hold All the ones we take for granted, all the ones that mean the most Red and blue, me and you, always seem to fade away but Black and white, day and night, the only things that never change I'm sitting by my window, staring outside Thinking 'bout how fast life is passing me by Always wishing I could go back Always wishing we could go back And ten years from now, I'll be staring outside Thinking 'bout how fast life is passing me by Still wishing I could go back Always wishing I could go back One thing, I know I will not ever let go Grow up, grow old But still won't ever let go

I'ma keep running till my legs don't work And I'ma keep running if it still don't hurt And I'ma keep screaming till I lose my voice Cuz I ain't got a choice, man This is my choice, man I'ma keep fighting till my bones all break And I'ma keep fighting till my muscles ache I ain't gon stop, no matter whatever Nah, man, I never surrender Inside this crazy world we live in We gotta fight to make a difference No matter how much people hating We gotta keep on fighting till the very end I know sometimes, the world comes crashing down So many times I'm bleeding on the ground I tried so hard, and in the end I see The only thing that ever holds me back is me I'ma keep running till my legs don't work And I'ma keep running if it still don't hurt And I'ma keep screaming till I lose my voice Cuz I ain't got a choice, man This is my choice, man I'ma keep fighting till my bones all break And I'ma keep fighting till my muscles ache I ain't gon stop, no matter whatever Nah, man, I never surrender He's at the bottom in autumn, gotta reach the top by the spring Starting to learn that everything in life's attached to a string He had the world in his hands, now it's slipping through his digits So he fidgets, he's frozen stiff, he's frost-bitten and vivid images Pass through his mind, his past, gotta leave it behind He who dwells on the past, in the future is blind But a little bit of hindsight is just what he needs to prepare You better know where you came from, or you ain't going nowhere Take some sweat and some blood, throw it around in the mud You got a hustler, the greatest hustler there ever was Take the tears and the pain, then go stand out in the rain These days the thunder seems like every roar is screaming his name Every dynasty starts with just a simple foundation Concentrate and don't hesitate to resist the temptations The voice in your head that says it's time to give up The only reason you fall is so you can get back up I'ma keep running till my legs don't work And I'ma keep running if it still don't hurt I'ma keep screaming till I lose my voice Cuz I ain't got a choice, man This is my choice, man I'ma keep fighting till my bones all break And I'ma keep fighting till my muscles ache I ain't gon stop, no matter whatever Nah, man, I never surrender

Everywhere I go, everything I see Reminds me of the way we used to be And only in the end now I start to realize That maybe you were special Now I am nothing but a shadow in the alley Now and then you catch a glimpse of me but everyday I'm gradually Slipping through the cracks, sinking to the bottom Of a pit that's filled up to the brim with misery and sorrow It's funny how I'm your yesterday, but you are my tomorrow And every yesterday used to be laced with a staccato Now all my days are dotted, my minutes turned into hours I'm thinking about your face, but the taste is bittersweet sour Now you, you're the ghost that's inside of my head Every time I go to bed, every time I try to dream Every time I close my eyes, every time I count sheep Why they gotta look like you? I can't never get to sleep And it really makes me wonder if you felt the same way The words that both of us were just too scared to say Now I'm left with all these what if's, it's driving me mad Cuz you were the best thing that I never really had Everywhere I go, everything I see Reminds me of the way we used to be And only in the end now I start to realize That maybe you were Everywhere I go, everything I see Reminds me of the way, the way we used to be And only in the end now I start to realize That maybe you were special How can I breathe, when I'm stuck on your scent? How can I go on when I can't forget? I can't feel a thing without your touch You're the voice in my head that won't Shut up! Every I go and everything I see Reminds me of the times when it was just you and me But now, I can't help but to feel That maybe you were Special! Everywhere I go, everything I see Reminds me of the way we used to be And only in the end now I start to realize That maybe you were Everywhere I go, everything I see Reminds me of the way we used to be And only in the end now I start to realize That maybe you were special

about

The bulk of this album was recorded way back in 2009. During the recording of this album, I was beginning to veer from a straight-forward hip hop sound and draw influences from different genres of music, ranging from rock to chiptune. I would make most of the instrumentals at home, then bring them into the recording studio at my high school where I would lay down the vocal tracks. Various circumstances ultimately led to the collapse of the project - I graduated that summer without finishing the album.
Over the next five years I dabbled in different genres of music intermittently, only to find I couldn't quite reclaim the passion and creative spark that I'd had during that special time. Now it's 2015 - 6 years later! - and I'm back recording new music. But before I began any new projects, I knew I had to go back and see this thing through to the end. The majority of what you'll hear was recorded back in 2009, with only a few flourishes/newly recorded vocals on select tracks. So, at long last, I present to you: Earthbound.
