"Indiana-based songwriter Kevin Krauter returns with new album Full Hand on February 28. Today he has shared "Opportunity," a hazy waltz that alternates between thoughts of anxiety and excitement at an unknown journey ahead.
"I wrote this song a few years ago when I first started trying to do music full time,” Krauter said in a statement. “It was a pretty confusing time, and I think a lot of my headspace was taken up by the question of what opportunity looks like in my life, how much of myself I owe to it, and the inevitable reality of me making mistakes and finding an opportunity wasted regardless of my effort. Writing this song sort of helped me to contextualize that feeling and reflect on myself in a critical but compassionate way."" - The Fader, David Renshaw, February 05, 2020

♪ lyrics ♪
Wake up to a morning so listless
Come to, sun is looming in
Careless, glide on over my eyelids
Show me opportunity
Give it up like I did in my old days
Shake it off cause I’m living in my own way
Shake it off cause coming ‘round again
Laying at your door
Don’t stop, let the rhythm get faster
Blindly as I stumble in
Take the lead but my world is so backwards
Can’t believe I’m at the start again
Such a fake running way past the goal line
Laugh it off cause I made that joke so many times
Shake it off cause I’m coming ‘round again
Laying at your door
(Shaking it off)
I never thought I’d be the last one
(Shaking it off)
Now every chance I had is gone
(Shaking it off)
(Shaking it off)
