Takeoff Lyrics by Cory Wong

Elevator Music for an Elevated Mood

2020

[Verse 1]
It's almost like falling
But your feet are planted firm upon the ground
Fortunate that you've heard your calling
But you go forward, then you're turning back around
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you're scared to fly
But you've been chasing open skies
And you might lose your way from time to time
You can stay here and justify
All the days waiting in your life
When you can be your own amateur pilot
[Chorus]
Look to the sky 'cause you're ready for takeoff
You don't have to go it alone (Don't go it alone)
You might find that the feeling of flying
Is one that you already know
You already know
[Verse 2]
Staring up at the ceiling
Won't get you higher than three feet above your bed (Above your bed)
Seems your dreams got you reelin'
Aren't they supposed to get you moving instead?
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you're scared to fly
But you've been chasing open skies
And you might lose your way from time to time
You can stay here and justify
All the days waiting in your life
When you can be your own amateur pilot
[Chorus]
Look to the sky 'cause you're ready for takeoff
You don't have to go it alone (Don't go it alone)
You might find that the feeling of flying
Is one that you already know
You already know
[Bridge]
If you don't plant some seeds
Then they won't grow
If you don't make mistakes
How will you ever know?
They say stop when you're young
But you'll never be too old
To stop what you came for
You can never be too bold
So go plant your seeds
I promise they'll grow
Make some mistakes
And then you will know
How to stop what you can't for
You can never be too bold
You can never be too bold
