Fly Yes, Land No
Fly Yes, Land No: Navigating Life's Turbulence with Cam Rostami
Lyrics
Forcibly you face the day
Facing the day forcefully
Cross the way time slips away
Time slipping away as one crosses the way
I'm done with the up and down
Expressing a desire to move past ups and downs
Fuck the feeling, fuck the sound
Rejecting negative emotions and sounds
I can fly but I can't land
Having the ability to fly but struggling to land
It's these voices I can't stand
Disliking internal voices
Kick the door and smash the windows
Acting aggressively, breaking barriers
where he's going no one knows
Uncertainty about the destination
I could never grasp this strange behavior
Difficulty understanding peculiar behavior
But I've been told that I have a savior
Being told about having a savior
If you had to guess, what would you wager?
Raising the question of fate
Am I just doomed to human nature?
Contemplating if human nature is inevitable
And did you ever find your mountain?
Searching for a personal challenge or goal
Cause everyone you know is counting on
Feeling the weight of others' expectations
the way you strategize
Importance of strategic thinking
And the look in each other's eyes
Emphasizing mutual understanding through eye contact
The way they agonize
Highlighting shared struggles and pain
You couldn't see before
Realizing a previously unseen truth
That this is what you need me for
Being needed for a specific purpose
Board your ship and take to the skies
Encouraging departure to avoid internal conflicts
Before we can cannibalize
Preventing self-destruction for collective benefit
Take my word I am a doctor
Claiming expertise or authority
You must die so you can prosper
Suggesting sacrifice for future success
Ain't the same without the crew
Noticing increased trouble without support
More in trouble than you knew
Exploring challenges beyond one's awareness
Wait 'til night so I can find you
Waiting for the right moment to intervene
You and me will make a breakthrough
Anticipating breakthrough with collaboration
I could never ask you for a favor
Acknowledging reluctance to seek help
This is just the dark that I'll have to savor
Finding solace in embracing darkness
If you had to guess, what would you wager?
Pondering fate and destiny
This is the life living on a razor
Describing a challenging, risky life
And did you ever find your mountain?
Continuing the quest for personal fulfillment
Cause everyone you know is counting on
Pressure from others in decision-making
the way you strategize
Emphasizing importance of planning
And the look in each other's eyes
Expressing shared emotional experiences
The way they agonize
Highlighting the intensity of shared struggles
You couldn't see before
Discovering previously unseen needs
That this is what you need me for
Emphasizing personal significance
You two
Addressing individuals directly
Knocked down
Describing a challenging situation
Or drowned
Considering the consequences of failure
It's time to settle the debate
Deciding to confront and resolve a dispute
If we ice skate
Contemplating the stability of a situation
Will it hold our weight?
Raising doubts about the feasibility of a plan
You two
Repeating the theme of challenges
Knocked down
Reiterating the potential for setbacks
Or drowned
Revisiting the question of stability
It's time to settle the debate
Raising doubts about the feasibility of a plan
If we ice skate
Revisiting the question of stability
Will it hold our weight?
Doubting the capability of the plan to succeed
