Escape Velocity
Drum and bass EDM track about escape velocity: the exact speed you need to stop falling back, told as both real orbital mechanics and a metaphor for breaking free of what keeps pulling you down.
Gravity's got a grip on everything Pulls you back down, steady and true Throw a rock, it falls, throw it harder, it still falls There's a line where the falling... stops
Seven miles a second, precisely the number Eleven kilometers, straight up through the sky Slower than that, you're falling forever Faster than that, you say goodbye
Escape velocity Right on the number, precisely the mark Escape velocity You hit it exactly, or gravity wins Escape velocity Full speed, or you're staying
So what's pulling you back down today What's the gravity that holds you down Find the number, find the fuel Burn until the falling's done
Escape velocity Right on the number, precisely the mark Escape velocity Hit it exactly, and you're free
