[Verse 1] I’ve heard it said You only get what you put in And in the end What you give comes right back again If that’s the case Then I’ll get blood sweat and tears Cuz I’ve been at this, yeah I’ve been at this for years No I won't give up now No I won’t let up Cuz I’m all in it now Cuz I’m [Chorus] Diving in headfirst, with no fear No parachute, alone in the atmosphere I think I see the ground But I’m not going down Not much to lose, just the world to gain They say to win, you’ve got to fight through the pain But they won't see me drown Cuz I am soaring now [Verse 2] Well there’s been times When I have questioned it all The leap of faith Is it really worth the fall? It’s safer here Three steps back from the edge Dreams disappear... if you let ‘em, only if you let ‘em [Pre-Chorus] No I don’t plan on that Only if you let ‘em No I don’t plan on that Cuz I’m [Chorus 2] Diving in headfirst, with no fear No parachute, alone in the atmosphere I think I see the ground But I’m not going down Not much to lose, just the world to gain They say to win, you’ve got to fight through the pain But they won't see me drown Cuz I am soaring now [Bridge] When the lights go down after the show And I’m so tired and I wanna head home Spending days just laying in bed Nothing to do can’t get out of my head We all want to bring back the good old days Looking for joy all around but we’re scared if we change We’ll lose everything that we hold dear We’ll always be haunted by our fear If we’re not [Chorus 3] Diving in headfirst, with no fear No parachute, alone in the atmosphere I think I see the ground But I’m not going down Not much to lose, just the world to gain They say to win, you’ve got to fight through the pain But they won't see me drown Cuz I am soaring now

about

Lynz and Christian Simpson have teamed up to release a new duet called "Soaring," an upbeat and dreamy track that encourages listeners to take a leap of faith and bet on themselves and their dreams. Inspired by Owl City, the song is all about diving in head first with no fear and never being defeated by obstacles, both internal and external.

Lynz and Christian, who originally met through SoundCloud around 2016 when they were releasing songs in high school, have been working tirelessly on "Soaring" for years. The song has undergone multiple revisions, with countless Zoom calls and tweaks between the two artists during the pandemic. Despite the challenges, Lynz and Christian were determined to see the song through to completion, a triumph in and of itself.

The chorus lyrics - "Diving in headfirst, with no fear. No parachute, alone in the atmosphere. I think I see the ground, but I’m not going down. Not much to lose, just the world to gain. They say to win, you’ve got to fight through the pain. But they won't see me drown, 'cause I am soaring now" - are both catchy and empowering.

Lynz and Christian wrote the lyrics and produced the song themselves, recording their parts separately and working on it entirely remotely. The result is an upbeat and acoustic track full of exciting synths and melodies that will get your toes tapping and your heart racing.

"Soaring" was brought to life by mixing talents of Justin Hergett, a Grammy-nominated engineer. (FINNEAS, Nick Jonas, Grabbitz, Small Pools) Lynz had the courage and took a leap of faith to ask Justin to work on the song, and he gladly accepted, taking it to a whole new level.

The mastering of "Soaring" was handled by Tess Greenham, daughter of Grammy-winning mastering engineer John Greenham, who has worked with artists such as Billie Eilish, Finneas, Sam Smith, Katy Perry, and Lindsey Stirling.

Lynz, a dreamy singer-songwriter and producer originally from snowy Buffalo, New York, has been turning heads since she was just 12 years old. With her first self-produced full-length album, "Dusk At Dawn," Lynz proved that she is a force to be reckoned with, even winning the 2016 Buffalo Music Hall Of Fame songwriting competition. Recently, Lynz honed her skills at Westlake Studios in Los Angeles, producing for other artists and playing local shows.

Christian Simpson is a music producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist who has released several albums, plays in multiple bands and at church, and collaborates with a wide range of artists.

Together, Lynz and Christian have created a duet that is both inspiring and catchy, urging listeners to take a chance and reach for the stars.
