I started writing the music for the verses with the crazy, 'don't-even-know-what-style'/'you'll-know-what-I'm-talking-about-when-you-hear-it' beat a few years ago (around the time we were recording our previous album 'Refuge') but didn't know what to do with it at the time... I though it was pretty groovy but I just didn't have 'what it needed' in me to finish the rest yet. It wasn't its time yet.

Last year we went through a hard year of heavy touring and dealt a lot of bullsh*t, internally & externally. Things got pretty hard for us and we didn't know how we felt about the future. A lot of trust was lost in relationships, we faced a lot of resistance from the industry and we just didn't know where to go from there. Sometimes you spend a lot of time & energy trying to make everyone happy and the result is the exact opposite. The pressure can build so high you just want to run away, escape and say 'f*** it' to everything. You find that in the end this is for you and to stop getting caught up in giving a sh*t about what anyone else thinks. I'm making what I want to make and I don't care if people/industry have a hard time 'getting' it. In the end, it is YOU and only YOU that's in your way of accomplishing the things you want to do. No matter what other so-called 'important' people tell you.

I sat down in late 2013, full of emotion & fire to write. The rest of the song ended up coming together pretty fast. I was inspired. The guitar lines were full of energy and a certain level of 'bad-assery'. The electronics created a cool, sinister tone. We decided that it would be a nice, different touch to have Chalsey lead the vocals. This song was exactly how I felt and I had created a sort of 'manifesto' to myself on how I was going to deal with the near future. I realized it was up to me to create my opportunities and to take myself where I wanted to go.
