about

Track 1 of a 21 song album written and recorded in 21 days during lockdown in South Africa because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

lyrics

I've been beyond this place a thousand times
Taking for granted all the things that keep us safe
Sometimes the sparks burn out within our eyes
It's up to us to bring the smiles back to our faces
Let's be there for one another
And when you asleep just know I've got your back
Ease up on your mind, I'll try and focus on the rest

Let's fall apart if only bit by bit
Just like a puzzle, we'll come back to build it
Piece by piece we'll help each other piece 'til we're ok
There's no rush at all
We'll finish what we started, frame it, stick it on our wall

I've made the same mistake a hundred times
I'd like to think life taught me something on the way
Over the years I've come to realize
It's up to us to lift the blindfolds from our faces
Let's attempt to face the future
When it gets difficult just know I've got your back
It might take a while to surface so just keep calm and hold your breath

Let's fall apart if only bit by bit
Just like a puzzle, we'll come back to build it
Piece by piece we'll help each other piece 'til we're ok
There's no rush at all
We'll finish what we started, frame it, stick it on our walls

As bad as it may feel
There's no shame in feeling overwhelmed and sad
And as tough as it may seem
You'll come out the other side a stronger man
There's no rush at all

Let's fall apart if only bit by bit
Just like a puzzle, we'll come back to finish it
Piece by piece we'll help each other 'til we're ok
There's no rush at all
We'll finish what we started, frame it, stick it on our wall
