about

This soulful funk tune, “Get Up,” is the first single released off of Earth Radio’s upcoming album release, Reanimate, which will be released August 21st, 2020.

Bassist Justin Avdek wrote the instrumentals with the band and based the lyricism off of his aunt’s favorite quotes: “Thou shall not should on themselves.” It is a song that encourages you to step up, contribute, lose the excuses, and to not lose yourself while brightening your corner of the world.

lyrics

I wish I would, I wish I could
Well then get up, get up
I wish I would, I wish I could
Well then get up, get up

You are the energy, found in a hummingbird's heart
Starting is the hardest part
Moonlight reflects off your wings, as you sleep
In dreams, there's not a hill too steep

A ship is safest on the shore
but that's not what it's built for
But I can't escape the warmth of my bed,
and all the colors dancing in my head
Let the synesthesia be the je ne sais quoi

Don't lose your mind, and don't lose mine
It's a waste of wine and a waste of time

The light is faster than the sound,
words becoming meaningless. Shine!
Tasting the time it takes
The synesthesia is the je ne sais quoi

A ship is safest on the shore
but that's not what it's built for
But I can't escape the warmth of my bed,
and all the colors dancing in my head
Let the synesthesia be the je ne sais quoi

Don't lose your mind, and don't lose mine
It's a waste of wine and a waste of time
Don't lose your mind, and don't lose mine
It's a waste of wine and a waste of time
Don't lose your mind
