It’s #MusicMonday and I know this one is really late guys, but my kiddo kept me up all night sick, and she has pneumonia and my brain is fried. Still, I seriously love this song, and it’s so badass! ‘Ordinary Life’ by Wild Wild Horses has great energy, awesome lyrics, and it’s a song I love. Better late than never, right? I’m posting this and then crashing because I’m running on almost no sleep but I hope you take a few minutes and listen, lovelies.
Lyrics
This is not a drill
Let your head empty and your heart fill
Hindsight won’t save us
Only catch us and cage us
I won’t be that bloke who lost hope and never spoke his mind
Fear is not the answer
‘Cos these kids aren’t sick
They are dancers
You can tell from their faces
They’re culture creators
With flags in our hands
Claim this land as our canvas now
It took a little dark to see those lights
Blood on my hands, sweat in my eyes
Walk me down the tunnel, but know that I
I know, I know
This is no ordinary life
This is a call to arms, sound the alarm
This revolution was born in our hearts
We are world changers in tee shirts and trainers
We are the heartbeats of the streets that raised us
Your dreams don’t seem so strange to me
Life without risk, that’s living dangerously
Passion’s contagious, hands full of aces
We’re calling it all in because…
It took a little dark to see those lights
Blood on my hands, sweat in my eyes
Walk me down the tunnel, but know that I
I know, I know
This is no ordinary life
Fear is not the answer
‘Cos these kids aren’t sick, they are dancers.(x2)
It took a little dark to see those lights
Blood on my hands, sweat in my eyes
Walk me down the tunnel, but know that I
I know, I know
This is no ordinary life
