WHAT IS TAKE IT ON ABOUT?

When you live so far away from your family, the distance tends to get to you. You feel like missing out on so much, the good and the bad.

Everyone in this world goes through their fair share of pain - what ever kind of pain that may be. But I actually cant handle the thought of the people I love so much hurting in any type of way. It kills me. I take on their pain -I fully feel that 'Emotional Empathy' or 'Taking it On.

My family is giant, and I cant help but wish I was there with them, even though I have made the life I have for myself here in Arnhem Land, I just cant see myself going home to New Zealand to live.

Take it on explores that empathy in depth, first expressing the urge for a loved one to talk, trust and be open, to see the amount one would put into their day, wash the pain away and carry on. It is basically saying 'talk to me, I am here'.

lyrics

Talk to me, baby
I won't speak no lies
honestly I know how you feel

What's going on?
tell me please
I feel your pain, I feel too much pain.

So I take it on
I take it on

You gotta rush away
you gotta struggle
wash all the pain away
don't think about tomorrow.

Sometimes it feels like you can't go on
you make up excuses don't follow your voice.
Wash all the pain away,
don't think about tomorrow.

So I take it on (talk to me talk to me)
I take it on (I take it I take it I take it I take it on)
I take it on (talk to me talk to me)
I take it on (I take it I take it I take it I take it on)

You gotta rush away (rush rush rush)
you gotta struggle (Struggle struggle struggle)
wash all the pain away
don't think about tomorrow

You gotta rush away (rush rush rush)
you gotta struggle (Struggle struggle struggle)
wash all the pain away
don't think about tomorrow

So I take it on (talk to me talk to me)
I take it on (I take it I take it I take it I take it on)
I take it on (talk to me talk to me)
I take it on (I take it I take it I take it I take it on)
