lyrics

You're convinced that you will fail
that it's all to no avail
and you don't think that you'll ever shine
all your efforts seem a waste of time

It doesn't matter how slow you get there
you will get better and grow, you'll get there
You don't have to reach for the sky
Don't be concerned how late you learn
just take it on and your luck could turn
You don't have to learn how to fly

You are sure you're falling short
too unskilled across the board
But no one is unqualified
to at least give it a little try

It doesn't matter how slow you get there
you will get better and grow, you'll get there
You don't have to reach for the sky
Don't be concerned how late you learn
just take it on and your luck could turn
You don't have to learn how to fly

When did such a strong belief in failure
become the might of your mind?
Turn around that power
for potential
that deep down you knew you'd find

It doesn't matter how slow you get there
you will get better and grow, you'll get there
You don't have to reach for the sky
Don't be concerned how late you learn
just take it on and your luck could turn
You don't have to learn how to fly

Hybrid (album)
by Michett

If you like Igorrr, Blue Stahli or Infected Mushroom, you should definitely check out Michett. Former guitarist of Within Temptation who discovered electronic music. I did all his artwork, by the way. Kalipluche

Straight Stories
by Chabliz

Interesting pop noir / gothic jazz trio with a vocalist that has a dazzling range. Music like a good glass of wine. Can you recognize their totally unique cover of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean? Kalipluche

The Formula (EP)
by Vintage Futura

My other musical outlet: Vintage Futura. We're an indie pop duo with a more band-like sound, compared to Kalipluche. Heavy or acoustic, we like to mix it up, as long as it's catchy as hell! Kalipluche
