Chase That Feeling
Hilltop Hoods
State Of The Art (2009)

VERSE 1: PRESSURE
She’s young, lithe and homely, wise by no means,
Known one guy she’s for his eyes and only,
He’s a lying phony, leaves crying, lonely,
Separates the pain by staying high and though she,
Might just O.D. high price to go free,
This aint living, listen it’s dying slowly,
It’s got a hold on me, she can chase that feeling,
It’s got a hold on me, don’t chase that feeling

VERSE 2: PRESSURE
Sometimes I feel we strive for a life of apathy,
Callous deeds, other mindless acts of greed,
Aint jack for free, I think they’d try a tax to
breathe,
It’s like we fight to remind us that we bleed,
I take flight in the night from lack of sleep,
Cause peace of minds the only time that we’re free,
It’s got a hold on me, and I’m a chase that
feeling,
It’s got a hold on me, we all chase that feeling

VERSE 3: SUFFA
It’s like they try to build you up to watch it all
collapse,
You try climb out the pit, they’ll try claw you back,
Like back in the factory packing the shelves,
It was hell cos the foreman was always harassing me,
Like ‘How’s your little old music thing
going?’
Now I’m like ‘How’s your bitter old loser shit
going?’
And I’m right, it’s got a hold on me, and I’m a
chase that feeling,
It’s got a hold on me, I’m a chase that feeling
like

CHORUS
And I’m a chase that feeling,
Take that pain and replace that feeling,
And I’m a take that healing then,
Stand so tall they’ll have to raise that ceiling man

VERSE 4: PRESSURE
From a young age I was making my mark, chasing my start,
Forever aint enough when your state of the art,
Fuck the haters that had said I’d never make it this
far,
It’s the pavers that I’d tread to dedicate to my
craft,
I’ve tailored every thread to bear the shape of my
heart,
Treating every breath as my first and day as my last,
It’s got a hold on me, I still chase that feeling,
It’s got a hold on me, yeah I still chase that feeling

VERSE 5: SUFFA
I ride the rails of a vinyl track,
Fall into a trance and there aint no climbing back,
Sit and lose myself in all the hidden loops,
They’re like forbidden fruits, I’m like can I get a
bite of that?
Gin and juice, I get loose and I write a track,
Shivers down my spine, feeling more like a spinal tap,It’s
got a hold on me, and I’m a chase that feeling,
It’s got a hold on me, I’m a chase that feeling
like

CHORUS
And I’m a chase that feeling,
Take that pain and replace that feeling,
And I’m a take that healing then,
Stand so tall they’ll have to raise that ceiling man

VERSE 6
At start of the summer,
I’m a come to life and have the heart of a hummingbird,
And I can hear the drummer,
She’s so ugly but I’m so in love with her,
Wake up, roll out of bed, throw on some roll-on,
Roll up to the studio,
It’s got a hold on me, and I’m a chase that
feeling,
Chase that feeling
