Montage

There is no demo for this song.

Liner Notes

Sometimes, you lean into the meta. Especially when you’re trying to inspire your own training montage.

Lyrics

Are you ready? Is your headband on tight?
‘Cuz that’s the only way you’re gonna take this fight
Deadline’s coming closer, moment’s in your sights
Square your shoulders, time to get to work tonight

It’s a montage, doing what it takes
Time flying by causes muscle aches
It’s a montage, put the effort in
By the end of the song, you’ll be ready to win

Put your game face on, need to look intense
Can’t you see the pressure’s gonna be immense?
Dedication now is your best defense
This is your moment, don’t stay on the fence

It’s a montage, doing what it takes
Time flying by causes muscle aches
It’s a montage, put the effort in
By the end of the song, you’ll be ready to win

Coach in your corner, whistle ready to blow
Keeping your training moving with gusto
Adding their expertise to the things you know
So when the match starts, you can put on a show

It’s a montage, doing what it takes
Time flying by causes muscle aches
It’s a montage, put the effort in
By the end of the song, you’ll be ready to win

(Some sort of dramatic synth or guitar solo has to happen here)

Mix up your motions, really light the fire
Break open your punching bag, flip that tire
Sprint up the hill, follow the path higher
Show them you’re ready, you’re a real live wire

It’s a montage, doing what it takes
Time flying by causes muscle aches
It’s a montage, put the effort in
By the end of the song, you’ll be ready to win

It’s a montage, doing what it takes
Time flying by causes muscle aches
It’s a montage, put the effort in
By the end of the song, you’ll be ready to win

I can hear the synths instantly from the first line! “are you ready? Is your headband on tight?” is such a good start - a question, a call to action, an immediate placement in time and genre. I love this - great lyrics. Will it help me do what it takes to get my work done this afternoon? I hope so
