Massive thanks to Fady for reaching out with this incredibly produced track for me to add vocals to. Fady's music was instantly inspiring and the song basically just wrote itself. And big ups to Bitzone for lending his ear and sonic artistry to mix and master this track into vivid color.

Lyrics:
Time trials
And I’m still miles
Away Off course
Of course I’m Falling off
The track and This time
I ain’t coming back
Always
Starting in last
Place
All days
Speedily passed
I race
To catch up but I can’t keep pace
I chase
A taste of what it’s like to get a head
Instead
Led off course by centrifugal force
Falling off the edge
Again it’s got me feeling
Better off
Dead
When reeling
From being made to
Head
Back on track
From the invisible hand
Never giving me slack
As the power ups stack
Bullet bills speed boosting up to the pack
Yet still producing the deducing
16th place I can’t crack
Time trials
And I’m still miles
Away Off course
Of course I’m Falling off
The track and This time
I ain’t coming back
Never
Finishing in first
Or third
However
Quickly I burst
Or swerved
Past peels or fake item
Box a hazards
Still out maneuvered and
Staggered
Disoriented wheels don’t
Matter
When I
Can’t get a
Grip
As the
Realization
Of the final lap
Lets the cup
Slip
From hopes
Final dash
I crash
Afraid to hit the gas
Hidden shortcuts and cheat codes
Not given
Even if I was to play the villain
Driven
There’s no opportunity to surpass
When my previous finishing position
Was coming in
Last
Time trials
And I’m still miles
Away Off course
Of course I’m Falling off
The track and This time
I ain’t coming back
13th place
Thought I was in the chase
14th place
Slippin’ but thinking keepin’ pace
15th place
And still got one in the rear view mirror
16th place
Wasn’t a fall from grace is getting clearer
