"Sam Fender knows what it feels like to be trapped.
Growing up in a Britain riddled with austerity, haunted by Brexit, sometimes the pathways, the exits, aren't exactly obvious.
It's something that occurs again and again in his work, with Sam Fender channelling an often hidden voice.
Reverb-soaked new single 'Leave Fast' is a testament to small town ennui, to that feeling of growing up in a place of dead roads and exhausted avenues.
The video plays it simple, and it's all the more striking for that; a haunting, penetrating look at working class life in this country." - Clash, Robin Murray, June 14 2018

I absolutely love this song! The message behind it is so powerful and I think Sam is so underrated.

♪ lyrics ♪

The dark grey vistas of this weathered place
The blue star on The Nautilus
The old boys like chimneys
The mass of filth and rubbish outside the houses
And broken fridges and torn up sofas
The boy racers, tearing down the beehive road
Leading out to coastlines
Where kids freeze their lungs and run amongst the rolling dunes away from everyone

Oh, leave fast or stay forever
An old man told me to leave fast or stay forever
Leave fast or stay forever

Boarded up windows on the promenade
The shells of old nightclubs
And half way houses
Intoxicated people battling on the regular in a lazy lowlights bar
Poor souls sleeping on shop front doors being turfed off by the council
Forgotten by our government
A selfish little baby with no responsibility
Watching people die in the cold

Oh, leave fast or stay forever
An old man told me to leave fast or stay forever
An old man told me to leave fast or stay forever
