Hayden Forbes, Asiah Doyle - Explode the Moment Lyrics

1, 2, 3

In thirty seconds, lots can happen
This thesis is beliefs and the reasons of why I'm rapping
Asiah crafted this tune, and now the drums and feet are tapping
To the tale of when a king and queen had made a kind of magic
We had one vision, and it was simple
Moment, seize it, clear as crystal
2018, we had a dream in our grasp
Musical blast for the masses and we would never look back
So where does that lead us?
Where do we go?
To the Richland Center High Homecoming Talent Show!
The first time we performed, it was too late to stop
Then the opening chords and a slow motion clock

Explode the moment
Explode the moment
Explode the moment
Take us home kid!

Cold mic, guitar riffs
Spiting lyrics sicker than when SARS hit
Heart beating outta my chest
With each analysis picking apart it
Try not to stumble the words
Keep the sweat off your face
Keep time with the snare
And stop shaking your legs!
An anxious flush, I feel my throat begin to close
But keep pushing forward to earn that eternal reward
How far am I?
Only one line, oh my!
The crowd begins to stare, push out what's deep down up inside

Explode the moment
Explode the moment
Explode the moment
(Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah)
Take us home kid!

Everything is everything to the scientists' satellites
Processing predicaments of the picture perfect paradise
Like I'm rolling a pair of dice, I'm gambling it all
For these minutes: I need seven, the next two will make the call
That's where my senses stop, hold up
I'm getting flashbacks
First song I wrote: I scrapped that
Second song? I scrapped that
Took me about seventeen before I finally found my footing
And a year and a half has past, hoping I know just what I'm doing
Already have a few songs in the bag that no one's heard
Never heard until today when I debut my first verse
"Chasing Dreams"? That is me
And I've got Lauren on the chorus
Have to win this for our class
But to me it's more important

Explode the moment
Explode the moment
Explode the moment
Take us home kid!

Twenty-seven seconds in, a second wind
Everything is positive and I said I'm zoning in
I'm gaining confidence
And they're knowing it
They're vibing and
And they're showing it
It's almost common sense, I'm proud to be in this position
I can make it on my own, the prophecy of the musician
A cloud of energy surrounding as they're clapping to the beat
That's when everything around me comes back up to normal speed
Yeah
When thirty seconds felt too long
That's the topic Pace asked us to conjure up in a new song
Two of the best in modern-day Esau Claire, how could we do wrong?
We'll find out in meta text, so thank you
We must move on
On, on, on, on, on, on, on, on, on
