My second submission for the Furry Musicians Express Yourself Contest.
I was inspired to make something like Curtis Mayfield's vocal group The Impressions, who specialised in uptempo harmony music. Musically it's a bit more synthpop, but it definitely captures what I think fun radio pop should be. Recently I learnt a few things about harmony mixing which has helped make the verse and chorus stand out more.
Lyrically it's about how there's this mad rush to achieve things in life (especially by a certain age), and it's just like sometimes, chill out and enjoy things. We have our whole lives to learn things after all.
Lyrics:
I'm not gonna fight this world anymore
This time I'm sure, it's gonna last
You gotta stop and take the air for a bit
You might miss things if you live so fast
I'm not gonna rush in this lifetime
Or I might fall right on my face
I might not hit that deadline
But I'll just take things at my own pace
