Lyrics

OVERKILL (2)

Sometimes your grip just slips and you gotta let go
Ya don't give up the struggle and you'll never know
How good it can feel to be that free
Yea, what might happen if ya just stop trying?
Let it all go, and stop your whining and crying
It should be so much fun to see...
Don't you force that feeling home
Let it happen on its own
I bet it will
Oh, there's something to say for being reflective
For learning to listen and being more receptive
It's a lot of fun to just lose control
So, why don't you try and take my suggestion?
You're pushing too hard and in the wrong direction
It will leave you stressed and so confused
Don't you force that feeling home
Let it happen on its own
I bet it will
Cause it's just overkill
Walk, don't run, you will get there still
No need for overkill
Let gravity take us on an easy ride down the hill

I got to admit it's a life of surprises
The stresses they come in all kinds of disguises
And catch you when you're least aware
So just relax no use you trying to right it
Let it all happen don't you try to fight it
Just relax and you'll get there

Don't you force that feeling home
Let it happen on its own
I bet it will
Cause it's just overkill
Walk, don't run, you will get there still
No need for overkill
Let gravity take us on an easy ride down the hill
Doobe doobe doo........(bridge)
Cause it's just overkill
Walk, don't run, you will get there still
No need for overkill
Let gravity take us on an easy ride down the hill
etc

What a great song and message, "...there's something to say for being reflective
for learning to listen and being more receptive...". This reggae-esque, upbeat tune is full of familiar and predictable melodies which help its connectivity! Great vocals and arrangement. It builds nicely with multiple vocal overdubs that create a tasteful chaos (at times). Nicely done!
