Ollie - life goes one

Copied!

{chorus}
Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now, these wings going take me home

And i know every little thing's okay
'cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While i'm just here waiting

{verse 1}
Yeah, never thought i'd be 26 and rapping
Took a walk around my neighbourhood
Heard children laughing
Finally, understand how ignorance is bliss
Think what i'd give to go back and relieve these mеmories
That continue flashing, inside my mind
Bеst friend lived next door to me wasn't hard to find
We were the heroes in our fantasies
Knights who armour shined
Always there to save the day but now i'd probably save the time

I guess growing up has different stages
Swear i'm always learning
I lay my head down in the grass, can feel the planet turning
I'm watching clouds in the sky, it's beautiful mid-july
Makes me forget about my bills and worries of what i'm yearly earning
Damn, it’s sad what life makes us become
Started off as innocent but eventually, we succumb
To the pressures of this world no escaping i tried to run
Though i'm thankful for this music 'cause it saved me

Yeah, now my gardens is full of bluejays
These new days, i'm over living inside a suitcase
Focused on my family in more than just one or two ways, a true phase
Hero of my city like i'm luke cage
Saying, dear patience i hope you listening
Was saved by christ at seven
Today, i became a christian by my own choice
Time make you really think what you want
Now, i finally see exactly what was missing
Power inside submission, the most important term they call faith
I'm tryna lead a life of legacy known for my grace
I've done it all while reaching for this dream that i chase
Finally letting go of fear i've only known to embrace
But no more, no more
I might of lost some battles but i'm focused on the war
Yea i'm sure, i'm sure
That i'll be alright

{chorus}
Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now, these wings going take me home

And i know every little thing's okay
'cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While i'm just here waiting

{verse 2}
Yeah, my perception gets shattered the more i've grown
Thinking everybody's grass is greener than what i own
While i'm wearing dirty laundry that's covered up with cologne
Like i know my father love me just different the way it's shown
Things not what they seem
Check your instagram app
Life's a rat race, desiring the things we don't have
Take a moment look around, deep breathe's relax
It's a spectacular now, time you'll never get back
A hypocrite the way i write
Dreams of children and wife
Watching days go by together
Flowers bloom, it's always bright
Need a genie for these wishes, think the bottles getting lite
If it’s impossible whatever, forever just sounding right
I digress, i surrender
Feel the sun on my skin
I deserve a life happiness, maybe i should begin
Wouldn't choose a million dollars over waking up again
So what's that say about the problems i got, yeah

{chorus}
Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now, these wings going take me home

And i know every little thing's okay
'cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While i'm just here waiting

{chorus}
Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now, these wings going take me home

And i know every little thing's okay
'cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While i'm just here waiting

Biography

edit bio

Born on December 11, 1995, in Port Dover, Ontario, Ollie first emerged on the hip-hop scene after a life-changing car accident sparked an awakening, leading him to leave his athletic dreams behind and drop out of university.

It was music that Ollie turned to as a form of therapy. Music was always one of his passions, but not something he seriously pursued until coming face-to-face with death. Ollie shifted his focus to creating dynamic deliveries and engaging lyricism to reflect his experiences — including those concerning overcoming obstacles, facing adversity, and being proud of who you are. This path led him to become the person he is today – an artist inspiring others using the mantra, “More Than Music.”

Pulling inspiration from hip-hop/r&b, pop, rock and country, the latter of which serving as a representation of his small town upbringing, Ollie’s music presents itself as a unique catalog of sounds and cadences. Moreover, Ollie’s skillset highlights his ability to adapt to different genres effortlessly, creating a series of lyrical paintings that are not only captivating but relatable.

“I started off being heavily influenced by hip-hop, and as time went by, I learned to appreciate a lot more music. When I began exploring different genres, my music and sound started to take form. I found my voice,” notes the Toronto-based artist.

Early in his career, Ollie was heavily involved in the YouTube community. At the age of 16, he opened his first YouTube channel and began uploading gameplay commentaries. This eventually drove him to create a music channel where he would promote the sounds of up-and-coming artists. Ollie’s desire to promote other undiscovered talents only further inspired him to begin releasing his own music under an alias that took form from his father’s childhood nickname. He began, writing, recording and releasing these songs, quickly getting featured on videos of popular gamers and personalities, building awareness around Ollie in the YouTube community. This subsequently translated to over 22K subscribers on YouTube, and over 550K monthly listeners on Spotify. In turn, this created an unbreakable bond between an artist and his constantly growing fanbase.

With a focused vision and a clear message behind his music, Ollie is setting a promising foundation for the years to come.

“I get a lot of messages and comments from people talking about how a certain song was able to impact their life, or how they found a form of comfort through my words,” he explains. “I try and spend as much time as I can every day talking with my fans one-on-one, not just about my music, but on a personal level, something ‘More Than Music’.”
