Story behind the song
An experimental beat that inspired KayR to write lyrics and get Claire to sing them. Eventually turned into a single when Claire's performance made KayR feel like it needed to be completed.
Lyrics
Claire Bones:
Oh, spinning round, feeling out of place,
Lights fly by and I try to brace
Myself for impact but I can't stop
I think I'm falling to the top

KayR:
Lights go by blurs, I can't find the words
to describe what I'm feelin' it's real and absurd
I'm tryna find direction. Lookin for a sign
Lookin' at the ground as I'm headed towards the sky
Feeling like my life has flashed before my eyes but I ain't gonna die,
I'm just tossin' inside of my mind as I defy gravity.
Blurrin out the things that always mattered to me
Scared of sucess but the rest of my thoughts
Cherish and bless every step to the top
But now the ladders gone and the function remains
the game is in my blood I oughta puncture the veins
and let it spill out, but I love the feel now
of the way my hearts pumpin. it feels real now.
Cuttin' through the memories, something kinda surgical
wavin' at my enemies as I be going vertical.

Accidentally aerial, I rarely feel this carefree though
no burial for heavy flows like mine, i broke the levee yo
all yall should be wary though, my head is spinnin', Merry-Go
Imma split the game so you could just call it the Red Sea yo
looking at my watch but the hands of the clock are lost
or dust 'cause it feels like each gust
blows past a couple minutes, hours, days
with my mind and my body goin seperate ways
I guess there's better ways that I could've achieved this
but I need this and it pleases my mind and relieves it
such a release that, gives me my fix and
I know that hip-hop is my one true addiction
disoriented now the story's bended,
the glory tempted so I'm more inventive
passin by the doubters who are stalling then they drop
third-kind encounters as I'm falling to the top
