lyrics

I'm chasing a dream
I'm chasing a dream
I can't stop chasing chasing
Nightmares of me failing failing
I can't stop chasing chasing

Dreams of making a living from music
Am I chasing mirages
Lost in a vortex whilst a decade passes
Have I failed if I don't run the fastest?
Tortoise in a marathon
Sometimes I get disheartened
Wandering through unkept gardens
Seeing greener grass on their sides
The key is to focus on mine
Organically grown no pesticides
Alkaline vegetables to feed my
Ambitions
Navigate in the direction of my vision
Listen

I'm chasing a dream
I'm chasing a dream
I can't stop chasing chasing
Nightmares of me failing failing
I can't stop chasing chasing

Way back when I decided I leave them
I said I wanna write about life
Felt like ryu shadow boxing at night
Recording song under my lamplight
Perfecting perfecting
Striving for perfect
A waste of time
I just got nervous
Of sharing things with the world
I don't even show songs to my girl
I don't even write things about my girl
Or certain lyrics that may upset my girl
I guess when u write it's a burden as well
My creative rate was higher
When I was anxious
Nowadays I have no pain
I write from happiness
Once I tap into the darkness
Insecurities inspire my madness

I'm chasing a dream
I'm chasing a dream
I can't stop chasing chasing
Nightmares of me failing failing
I can't stop chasing chasing

Chasing chasing
I don't wanna be failing
£££s from music I wanna be making
Releasing my music is like dreams
When your naked
Trying to find my clothes
Is it the fear of not being accepted
Or no one playing what I'm making
My obstacles are purely psychological
I make music for me not you
As much as I say that I'd like some residual
Income
Feel insecure about sharing these thoughts
With everyone
Dissecting every word
Every line
I feel uncomfortable with them knowing
Exactly what I'm thinking
Chasing chasing...

I'm chasing a dream
I'm chasing a dream
I can't stop chasing chasing
Nightmares of me failing failing
I can't stop chasing chasing
