IRL by Iration
Verse 1
Worn down from the daily grind
It's getting harder just to make you smile
And the means to an end don’t justify
And trying way too hard just not my style
Won’t spend another day, wasting away
Time to turn it all around
I wanna live life naturally
The way it was meant to be
What you say that we go on a ride
And head somewhere that’s hard to find
If you come along with me
We’ll have a little beach party
Cruising
Smoking
Spend a little time by the ocean
If you wanna feel alive
We can catch a sunset
In real life
In real life
In real life
In real life
Verse 2
On a beach blanket fireside
Crashing waves and the moonlight
Can’t stop the hands of time
But we can lay here all night
We should probably go but I want you to know
If it were all up to me
We can run it all back again
And make it our reality
When we need a little change of mind
Let’s head somewhere that’s hard to find
Come along and dance with me
It’s a just little beach party
Drinking
Hoping
That there’s another bottle we can open
I just wanna feel alive
Let’s go catch a sunset…
In real life
In real life
In real life
In real life
Whoa
Bridge
Souvenir from when you were younger
Takes you back to that time and place
Though a picture might last longer
They’ll never make you feel the same way
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
In real life
In real life
In real life
In real life
In real life
(Let's go catch a sunset)

Can't Look Back
04:14
|

I heard you’re running round with another crowd lately
They say you might have even lost touch, crazy
And all the things that keep you up at night
It’s not too late to get the wrong things right
Just Remember that you can’t look back forever gone
Haven’t felt like you could be yourself for so long
And all the times you whispered to yourself to “hold on”
Yea it Might be time for you take that ride
Or you’ll be watching as it rolls on by
And no you can’t look back, you can’t look back
I know
Change is
Not Always
Painless
Human
Meaning
Trust all the signs that you’re seeing
You just can’t look back
Too many things that can haunt you
Bad dreams don’t last
‘Cause I’m here if you want to
Take some advice from me
Deep down it’s the only way to be free
You just can’t look back
You know you can’t look back
I know the world can seem dark and so cold
And we’re all living in a tale that’s been told
Yea Just know that there’s another path that to roll
If you give yourself the light then you will grow
And you don’t have to look back
Don’t look back
I know
Change is
Not Always
Painless
Human
Meaning
Trust all the signs that you’re seeing
You just can’t look back
Too many things that can haunt you
Bad dreams don’t last
‘Cause I’m here if you want to
Take some advice from me
Deep down it’s the only way to be free
You just can’t look back
You know you can’t look back
You just can’t look back (you can’t look back)
Too many things that can haunt you
Bad dreams don’t last
‘Cause I’m here if you want to
Take some advice from me
Deep down it’s the only way to be free
You just can’t look back
You know you can’t look back
Can’t look back
You know you can’t look back
Can’t look back
You know you can’t look back
You can’t look back

Daytrippin down in Mexico
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Met a man at Las Rocas
Livin' down here since '68
One day they found him broke down on a desert highway
Lost the race but he found his way
Bought some gas from Ignacio
Spent all day at K-38
He Said he lost his senorita
And he asked me, “Have you seen her?”
And pointed down to the shore
There’s a place that I wanna go
Waves are fast but the time moves slow
Mezcal and a cloud of smoke
Daytrippin down in Mexico
Been to the top of La Mesa
Swam to the depths of Del Mar
Always on the run but didn’t have to go too far
Ended up in the Valle
She got me under her spell
They say I’m crazy
they don’t know the story
Whoa oh oh
Forget about everything you know
Take a hit and leave it all behind
There’s a place that I wanna go
(Whoa oh oh)
Waves are fast but the time moves slow
(Whoa oh oh)
Mezcal and a cloud of smoke
(Whoa oh oh)
Daytrippin down in Mexico
(Whoa oh oh)
There’s a place that I wanna go
(Whoa oh oh)
Waves are fast but the time moves slow
(Whoa oh oh)
Mezcal and a cloud of smoke
(Whoa oh oh)
Daytrippin down in Mexico

Strange

We keep burning like a wildfire
Tearing through the hillside
Drowning out the skies turn black
Bracing for the landslide
Rivers all run dry
Living like we can’t turn back
Caught up in a bad trip
Just can’t get out of it
Running while the walls close in
Swim in misinformation
Searching for something sacred
While they watch the money roll in
And I hope when I’m gone
It won’t be long
Til we’re back where we belong
Can’t wait til we’re gone
To move it along
Back to where we belong
Times are a changing
What can I say?
Temperature rising
Everyday
We just deny it
And sit in the shade
When did things get so strange?
Why are we fighting?
With nothing to gain
Lining their pockets
Playing their games
Ooohhhh oooohhh
When did things get so strange?
Sometimes it’s hard to know
Who is a friend or foe
That’s when you know you gotta go your own way
And If you feel it in your heart and your soul
Use your voice, Let em know you’ve got something to say
If somebody saw me doing what you’re doing, yea you better believe
They’d be calling me out
(Calling me out)
So I’m calling you out
(Calling you out)
Times are a changing
What can I say?
Temperature rising
Everyday
We just deny it
And sit in the shade
When did things get so strange?
Why are we fighting?
With nothing to gain
Lining their pockets
Playing their games
Ooohhhh oooohhh
When did things get so strange?
When did things get so strange?
And I hope when I’m gone
It won’t be long
Til we’re back where we belong
Can’t wait til we’re gone
To move it along
Back to where we belong
Whoaooaoao
Whoaoaoaoo
Whoaoaoooo
When did things get so strange?
Whoaooaoao
Whoaoaoaoo
Whoaoaoooo
When did things get so strange?
Times are a changing
What can I say?
Temperature rising
Everyday
We just deny it
And sit in the shade
When did things get so strange?
Why are we fighting?
With nothing to gain
Lining their pockets
Playing their games
Ooohhhh oooohhh
When did things get so strange?
When did things get so strange?
When did things get so strange?

I quit my job today
Texted my boss, she just said “k”
Packed up my car and I headed to LA
Wish it didn’t sound so cliche
Answered an ad and joined a band
None of us could play but we still jammed
We finally booked a show
Invited everyone we know— and we made
Eleven dollars in an envelope
California Dreams
Be anything that you want to be
Nothing’s for free
Sell your soul for your rent money
Everybody’s high
Golden state of mind
Got a song on the radio
It’s pretty cool, but I’m still broke
My mother said she’s proud of me, can’t wait to see the show
Dad still thinks that I’m a joke
California Dreams
Be anything that you want to be
Nothing’s for free
Pay your dues and your parking fees
Everything is fine
Golden state of mind
Whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh
California Dreams
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh man it’s been a week
Sold out show at the greek
I can’t stop thinking ‘bout when I saw Dad out in the crowd
And He was singing every word back to me
California Dreams
Be anything that you want to be
Get what you need
Just don’t forget your family
Everything is fine
Golden state of mind yea
California Dreams
Ain’t always what they seem to be
Nothing comes easy
Hold on to your sanity
Everybody’s high
Golden state of mind
Everything is fine
Golden state of mind
Everything is fine
Golden state of mind

I’ve been thinking bout ya lady
Been waiting for ya all day
I was hoping that you’d make it back by sundown
Saw you looking lovely
When you said “pour us some bubbly”
I could see that you weren’t messing around
Lights were down low
I start to smile
Haven’t been here for a while
You were all mine
We were up late
With no time left to hesitate
Last Night
Started with a bottle of wine
Just enough to make you feel fine
Wishing that I could rewind
Girl
You had me feeling in the mood
Drop the needle in the groove
You were doing that thing you do
Last night
Yea oh baby ah yea
Let’s relax and take it easy (easy)
There’s no time for wasting baby
You know that you’re the only one for me
(Only one for me yea)
And all I wanna do is be there for you
Girl I want you to be my queen
Said there’s nothing more to say
(Nothing more to say)
Don’t feel no way (don’t feel no way)
I just wanna love you all the way yea (all the way)
Last Night
Started with a bottle of wine
Just enough to make you feel fine
Wishing that I could rewind
Girl
But you had me feeling in the mood
Drop the needle in the groove
You were doing that thing you do
Baby baby baby baby
Last Night
Last Night ah yea
Lights were down low
I start to smile
We might be here for a while
You were all mine
We were up late
There’s no time left to hesitate
Last Night yea
Last Night baby
Last Night (Last night)
Last Night baby (ooohhh)
Last Night (Last night)
Last Night yea (ooohhh)
Last Night
Started with a bottle of wine
Just enough to make you feel fine
Wishing that I could rewind
Girl
But you had me feeling in the mood
Drop the needle in the groove
You were doing that thing you do
Last Night

I keep trying but I just can’t sleep
Something’s got ahold of me
I’m going faster than I have lately
And I Just can’t find a remedy
You fan the fire
When you lose control
Way out of your element
You fought the current
For way too long
Still couldn’t get the best of it
I can’t stop
All it takes is just one drop
when you feel it happening
all you gotta do is sing
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na na na na na naaaa
Far from perfect know I made my mistakes
Enough for a lifetime
Upped the ante, and I’m raising the stakes
Just gotta let my light shine
Whatever comes my way
Bounce back gonna ricochet
It’s on my mind, is it written on my face?
Blue skies and better days
I can’t stop
All it takes is just one drop
when you feel it happening
all you gotta do is sing
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na na na na na naaaa
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na na na na na naaaa
Yea!
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na naaaa
Na na na na na na na na naaaa
Na na na na naaaa (i can’t stop)
Na na na na naaaa (all it takes is just one drop)
Na na na na na na na na naaaa
Na na na na naaaa (i can’t stop)
Na na na na naaaa (all it takes is just one drop)
Na na na na na na na na naaaa

Listen to the river singin sweet songs
Tap into your soul in the stream of consciousness
Sink into the banks of this fertile land
Follow in the tracks written in the sand
Wanna dip my toe
feel the Water flowin over
Watch these ragged rocks til they turn to smooth stones
So Take me for a walk
We don’t have to talk
We can just be
Yea We can just be
Lately I’ve been thinking
wanna catch my mind
Just trying to slow down
From the perpetual ride
I’ve been lost on a journey
But it has no end
Just a new beginning waiting for me ‘round the bend
So tell me that you’ll miss me
So I know you care
At times i’m lonely
At times I’m scared
But I keep coming back for
Just one more line
Just one more high
Just one more time
Take me for a walk
We don’t have to talk
We can just be
Yea We can just be
So many questions of life
All these Uncertainties
Interrogating my mind
Givin me the third degree
Livin on limited time
So we live tirelessly
You’ll always be by my side
For all eternity
I can see it in your eyes
Falling down as you pass by
floating to me through the mist
Slipping through my fingertips
So tell me that you need me
‘Cause you know I care
Just one more night
Just one more prayer
Staring off into the distance
As far as I can see
Let’s close our eyes
And we can just be.

I didn’t know
That it would be the last time
Looking in your eyes
Talking bout what came to mind
Couldn’t clear my head
Words left unsaid
Knowing that I couldn’t stay
What are we doin
Was it all an illusion?
Watching as you walked away
When we said goodnight
I was thinking bout the things you said and it felt right
We were staring at the stars over city lights
And you left me feeling high but no matter how I try
I want you
Cause I’m feeling the comedown
I need you
Addicted to the way you sound
Cause the nights are cold when
I can’t hold you
I want you
Cause I’m feeling the comedown
Wish i wasn’t the one that was born to run
Chasin bigger skies makes this life a lonely one
Now I’m 30,000 feet up in the sky
Sitting in a window seat, tears in my eyes
Can’t believe that you’re gone, gone, gone
What the hell have I done, done, done
Never meant to hurt you
But breaking you, yea it broke me too
I want you (i want you)
Cause I’m feeling the comedown
(I’m feeling the comedown)
I need you
Addicted to the way you sound
And the nights are cold when
I can’t hold you
I want you (I want you)
Cause I’m feeling the comedown
I’m feeling the comedown yea
I’m feeling the comedown mmhmm
I need you
I’m feeling the comedown
When the nights are cold and I can’t let go
And I hear your voice everywhere i go
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, oh whoa
When the nights are cold and I can’t let go
And I hear your voice everywhere i go
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, oh whoa
And the nights are cold when (nights are cold)
I can’t hold you
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, oh whoa
(I feel it)
And the nights are cold when (nights are cold)
I can’t hold you (i can’t hold you)
I want you
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa
