Tightrope is really about the pressures of life and feeling behind. It’s a self reflective anthem! This is a track of internal struggle and navigating the world as a young person. Talking about how hard it is to juggle life demands and the pressure that you feel is on you and having to find that balance of living and surviving, hence the tightrope. But it is also the realisation that others are in the same position and things won’t always feel this way!
