Written and produced by Miss Tun Pickney.
When you wish for something you can either wait for it to happen or do something to make it happen. However, when you decide to take action there will always be voices that try to turn you away from the path you have chosen. This is where the hard choices have to be made and the doubts set in. This is the theme to the song and the idea partly came about through my own dream to make my own music and more generally the life of an indie artist. There are plenty of testing times and these are the times that will decide if you have what it takes to succeed.
Verse 1
The way out of the grind is to dream believe look up and then to climb
Down pressers say to you don’t bother to climb your place is inna the grind
The hardest thing to do is find the courage and stop the doubts from taking hold
And now it’s up to you to step forward it’s a climb for the brave and bold
Chorus
Away away away I go
Some things I lack but that will never hold me back
Away away away I go
I’ll never crack no matter how people react
Away away away I go
Obstacles in my way are just a temporary setback
Away away away I go
There’s no turning back I know I’m on the right track
Away away away I go
Verse 2
Doom mongers say it’s true you won’t finish the climb you're bound to fail and fall
They say don’t be a fool everything’s cool play safe you don’t want to risk it all
They want you to be fooled into believing you need them more than they need you
What does their answer prove it’s up to you to climb and make your dreams come true
Chorus
Away away away I go
Some things I lack but that will never hold me back
Away away away I go
I’ll never crack no matter how people react
Away away away I go
Obstacles in my way are just a temporary setback
Away away away I go
There’s no turning back I know I’m on the right track
Away away away I go

Verse 3
It’s easy to look down to the safety of firm and well-trodden ground
So now there is a choice succeed or watch the doubters sneers abound
The way out of the grind is to dream believe look up and then to climb
So listen to the voice within whispering be fearless now’s your time
Chorus
Away away away I go
Some things I lack but that will never hold me back
Away away away I go
I’ll never crack no matter how people react
Away away away I go
Obstacles in my way are just a temporary setback
Away away away I go
There’s no turning back I know I’m on the right track
Away away away I go
Vocal Adlib to end
