about
Glide is a song partly inspired by KayR's hard working friend. Rhodes Scholar Thomas Toles. KayR uses "Glide" to convey the feeling of being bogged down by too much work and how to overcome it. The most upbeat, feel-good track of "Skyline Mirages".
lyrics
[Hook: Kieran Moolchan]
That world you've got on your shoulders
It's weighing you down, it's wrapping around
You've got to let it go
All your control's an illusion
It ends in confusion, you need to relax
And then just let it all go
Just let it all go
You need to let it go
Let it all go
[Verse 1: KayR]
One glance in the mirror, I see a little clearer
A person that I used to know, used to know
Used to go crazy at times. Having people thinking that I'm losing my mind
At parties I was a blast. Now I'm always staying on task
Got a mask, but it's wearing thin. It's becoming part of my skin
I can feel it, feel it, deep in my spirit, a longing to get away
From this desk and this screen, it's messing with me. I feel like it's safe to say
I've gotta relax, let loose. Do I dare? It's the truth
Relax, let loose. I try but it's no use, and
[Hook]
[Verse 2: KayR]
Then something starts to pound
It's the sound of a speaker speaking out
It's speaking loud, right to my chest, wait
The drums kick right, through my breastplate
And restart my heart. Bloods pumping now
And I really sort of feel like jumping 'round
Won't touch the ground. I'm going to touch the sky
Let loose, feel free, no time to hide. I'll just glide
Across the ceiling, nobody matching how I'm feeling
Leave them reeling. Point me to the stage
I'm a dog off the leash, a beast with no cage
Engage. Full throttle. I used to feel so hollow
Now I feel like I could swallow the
Whole world. Clap your hands and follow me
It's like
[Bridge: (Kieran Moolchan) & KayR]
(Ooh. Just glide. Ooh)
It's like
Well, it's like
I'm sure you've all felt this way before but it's like there's been times in my life where
I've had so much on my plate that I've just felt drained
I had no emotions left
Just tasks to complete and things to do
And then I found my outlet
My outlet is music. My outlet is theatre, and acting and directing
My outlet is creativity
And if I can find that, you can too
Let's go
[Hook x 2]
