Gracie Abrams on Risk Songtext
von Gracie Abrams

I could talk about risk for a very long time
Mostly because
I don′t think I've ever laughed harder writing anything
Audrey Hobert, who is my, uh, best friend
And also my roommate
And, uh, my cowriter on a handful of these songs
She and I had truly the
Time of our lives


Like we were in the kitchen∕living room
On our couch in tears of laughter
And, kind of, I think, just excitement
Getting to a place where this song
As soon as you wrote the hook
We were both, you know, reasonably addicted to it
And woke up, you know, in the middle of the night
With the melody in our heads, woke up first thing in the morning
We′d come down the stairs like, you know, belting the song

And this song we, we wrote about this mega crush
That I had that felt brutal
I'm sure you know what that feels like
It's nuts
And it′s the best and it′s the worst
And it, uh, you know

It feels like
Stepping into something and not knowing exactly
Where you are going to land, and for control freak like me
That's scary to the nth degree
So what do you do when you′re scared?
You write a pop song, here's "Risk"
