about

The main track on the EP and title track. If you read the story, Leroy, the main character has had a lot of stuff happen to him. When he picks up the guitar, he writes about his experience. Eventually it manifested into this track and it becomes his message - "things are going well so I'm going to enjoy the wind of fortune blowing my way until it stops."

It was the second track he performs live at the talent show during the novella's climax, allowing him to get his closure and accept the past so he can leave it there.

I thoroughly enjoyed recording this and spent a lot of time on it. Loz Gill, who mastered it, thinks its "a stone-cold classic in the making." Just as well, as it's my favourite track on the EP.

lyrics

Catch The Wind While It Blows

I’m fighting this battle all on my own
I’m that person that you don’t want to know
You all think you can have things your own way
But I know that I’ll be somebody one day.
I know that I’m not part of your group
But you won’t stop me from speaking my truth
I see you’ve always got a lot to say
But it won’t mean much one day

I’ll be the guy with the biggest house (One Day)
Be the guy with a comfortable life (One Day)
Be the guy with the best story (One Day)
Have some kids and a beautiful wife (One Day)
Life may change but I keep humble (Always)
Break away from concrete jungle (One Day)
Never stop always on the go (One Day)
Catch the wind while it blows

Spat on and hissed on for no real reason
Listened to all the things they told you this season
You say you have love in your heart
But then you stop me before I start
You see my despair as an excuse to be amused
But could you last a minute in my shoes?
I’m still here despite everything you threw
I’m still proud despite all your untruths

I’ll be the guy with the biggest house (One Day)
Be the guy with a comfortable life (One Day)
Be the guy with the best story (One Day)
Have some kids and a beautiful wife (One Day)
Life may change but I keep humble (Always)
Break away from concrete jungle (One Day)
Never stop always on the go (One Day)
Catch the wind while it blows

In life we don’t ask for our fate to pan out
But the cards are stacked and that’s the ones we deal
But this won’t last forever ‘cause soon you’ll have to leave
And then you’ll have to experience all that is real

I’ll be the guy with the biggest house (One Day)
Be the guy with a comfortable life (One Day)
Be the guy with the best story (One Day)
Have some kids and a beautiful wife (One Day)
Life may change but I keep humble (Always)
Break away from concrete jungle (One Day)
Never stop always on the go (One Day)
Catch the wind while it blows

Black is a colour, I don’t act a colour
I was born this way, I’m a human being
It’s time you woke up and recognize
I know who I am, what about you?
