Cerita Personal Aziz Hedra di 'Backseat'
Lewat Backseat, Aziz membawa pendengar masuk ke cerita yang lebih personal. Lagu tersebut merekam fase ketika dirinya berhadapan dengan proses pendewasaan, beradaptasi dengan kehidupan sebagai perantau, sekaligus menjalani perjalanan di industri musik yang terus bergerak.
Di balik melodinya, Backseat menyimpan refleksi tentang bagaimana seseorang dapat kembali menengok mimpi-mimpi masa kecil yang sempat terabaikan dalam perjalanan menuju kedewasaan.
Cerita tersebut berangkat dari catatan jurnal pribadi Aziz. Dari sana, Backseat kemudian berkembang menjadi penanda perjalanan emosional dan spiritualnya, terutama ketika ia harus berhadapan dengan berbagai perubahan selama hidup jauh dari rumah.
Lirik Backseat - Aziz Hendra
I was a kid full of dreams
nothing seemed out of reach
having one or two shows then a big screen
Now i’m scared of growin’ up
didn't know i'd feel this much
losin’ hope and spark, watchin’ people change
the older I got, the more i know
All of my dreams still burn in my soul
but what if the dream looks nothing like it seemed?
cause i’ve seen it all from the backseat
the reality’s far from what i believed
All of my dreams still burn in my soul
feelin’ the fall but i’m still holding on
takin’ back control, fightin’ to be whole
hopin’ one day,
i’ll find that kid inside me again
Wish I could believe
In what I used to see
But the more I know, the less I dream
Tryna regain my hopes
Tryna control my self
even if I'm fallin’ all over again
All of my dreams still burn in my soul
but what if the dream looks nothing like it seemed?
cause i’ve seen it all from the backseat
the reality’s far from what i believed
All of my dreams still burn in my soul
feelin’ the fall but i’m still holding on
takin’ back control, fightin’ to be whole
hopin’ one day,
i’ll find that kid inside me again
Every night's getting longer
should I hold on or surrender
it's better to try and to fall
than to have never tried at all
All of my dreams still burn in my soul
but what if the dream looks nothing like it seemed?
cause i’ve seen it all from the backseat
the reality’s far from what i believed
All of my dreams still burn in my soul
feelin’ the fall but i’m still holding on
takin’ back control, fightin’ to be whole
hopin’ one day, i’ll find that kid
one day one day
i’ll find that kid inside me again
I’m still holding on
takin’ back control
i won’t giving up my hope
(one day, one day)
I’m still holding on
takin’ back control
i won’t giving up my hope
(i’ll find a kid inside me again)
I’m still holding on
(holding on)
takin’ back control
(take control)
i won’t giving up my hope
(i won’t giving up mine)
I’m still holding on
takin’ back control
i won’t giving up my hope
i’ll find a kid inside me again
(far)
