about

“Fall or Fly” is a bluesy rock tune about picking yourself up and learning from mistakes.

lyrics

You know that we all take a dive some of the time
Slip, stumble & fall & eat some humble pie
We can’t be winning all the blue ribbons
But we can keep learning from all of our living
You won’t be sinking if you keep swimming
And staying alive

Whether I fall or whether I fly
Whether I’m sprawled out or touching the sky
I can stand tall knowing I’ve tried
Whether I fall or whether I fly

You know that it takes lots of mistakes to get it just right
Fumble the football, bungle the phone call
Miss your big flight
You gonna collect some sweet imperfections
And you’re gonna get some epic rejections
But with some reflection, they’ll give you direction
And a purpose in life

Whether I fall or whether I fly
Whether I’m sprawled out or touching the sky
I can stand tall knowing I’ve tried
Whether I fall or whether I fly

“Hey Ash, have I told you about the time I played violin in the 5th grade talent show? I had just started learning to play, it sounded terrible, and the audience giggled and giggled, but I didn’t care, at least I tried!”

“Yeah? Well let me tell you about the time I got stuck hanging from a fence by my shorts, just as the final bell rang at the middle school across the street. It was so embarrassing! I was hopping the fence because I forgot my house key. Tell you what: I never forgot my keys again!”

You know you’re gonna collect some sweet imperfections
And you’re gonna get some epic rejections
But with some reflection, they’ll give you direction
And a purpose in life

Whether I fall or whether I fly
Whether I’m sprawled out or touching the sky
I can stand tall knowing I’ve tried
Whether I fall or whether I fly
Whether I fall or whether I fly
Whether I fall or whether I fly
