Icarus is flying too close to the sun 

And Icarus' life it has only just begun 

This is how it feels to take a fall 

Icarus is flying towards an early grave

have you ever heard of the story of Icarus? a part of greek mythology (where names like Zeus, Apollo, Athena, Hera,-the greek gods also famous from), Icarus is not one of the gods, but he's the son of Daedalus, the creator of the Labyrinth. Jangan tanya aku labyrinth tu apa sebab aku tak tau hahahahaha ok so long story short, Icarus, a young man, has a pair of wings. These wings, made by his father is made up of feathers and wax. Wax ok wax. apa kejadah dia pakai wax pun aku tak tau. wax ni adalah faktor penting dalam cerita ni, thats why aku tekankan hahaha ok ok sambung balik,

Daedalus warned Icarus not to fly his wings too low, nor too high. sedang-sedang je boleh. so-so kata orang kelantan. haa gitu. the relevance of this is that so wings dia tak dibasahi air laut atau the wax being melted by the heat of the sun.

and then, Icarus pun fly lah his wings for the first time. so wings kot? siapa tak eksaited?  he was overcame by the feeling of giddiness--by being able to fly---that he soared higher into the sky.

this mistake lent him his life: he got too close to the heat of the sun, and the wax in his wings melted down. Icarus kept flapping, and flapping, until he realized that there are no feathers left and that he was only flapping his bare arms.

he fell into the depth of the sea to his death.

wikipedia page stated that the interpretation of this myth is the consequence of 'personal over-ambition'. there's even a term in psychoanalysis called 'icarus complex', describing those whom 'spiritual ambition exceeds their personality limits'.

idk man. i've been feeling restless lately and this story is sooooo relatable. know your limits. by not flying too low maksudnya jangan undervalue diri sendiri. and by not flying too high is don't have ambitions that exceed your limits. and i kinda did the latter.

You're putting up your armor when you leave

 And you leave because you're certain 

Of who you want to be

lyrics are from Bastille's Icarus. Brilliant song. go ahead and take a listen!
