       Chase Atlantic (occasionally stylized as CHASE ATLANTIC) is an Australian alternative R&B band and production trio from Cairns, Queensland, formed in 2014. The group consists of five members: Christian Anthony, Clinton Cave, Mitchel Cave, Pat Wilde and Jesse Boyle. Chase Atlantic has released seven EPs and three albums.

       Christian Anthony and Mitchel Cave were in a boy band called What About Tonight. They formed the band to audition for season 4 of The X Factor Australia, although they were eliminated in week two, coming in eleventh place.

        Mitchel Cave's older brother, Clinton Cave, had a successful YouTube channel, Clinton Cave Music, where the brothers would release cover songs on a regular basis. In 2013, the three members performed together for the first time under the name K.I.D.S. (Kind Imaginations. Destructive Situations.) and released the original song "Addicted." They have since deleted all content from the channel.

Chewed up, I've been kicking rocks, kicking shit

I've been rolling off that 8-1, don't try this

Narcotics in my bloodstream, I don't feel a damn thing

Moral of the story, "Don't die kids"

 

See, I just want a little when that bass hits

Listen to my words, "Don't do this"

Yeah, I'm not insecure, I'm stupid

So stupid, yeah

 

I'm sorry that I scared your mother

Plus I'm sorry that your dad died

Now I don't wanna start no trouble

But I got a couple rules you should live by

 

Take drugs, stay high

View the fucking earth from the outside, yeah

Pop pills through the daytime

And if I die, tell my momma that I died like a rockstar

Fuck the cop car, they will never catch us

Like a rockstar, living too fast, like a rockstar

 

Birds sing when the drugs hit

I feel my heart kick

Double up the dose, go brainless

Break necks in the moshpit

And if I bleed then I drink codeine

Go painless

 

See, I don't sniff lines when my friends do

Ten girls lined up for the band's room

And if you don't get high, don't pretend to

It's kinda sad dude

 

I never meant to scare your mother

But she ain't never met my type (yeah, no)

And I've been fucking hoes and poppin' pillies, shouting Stoney

But it's not just how I feel, this is real life

 

Take drugs, stay high

View the fucking earth from the outside, yeah

Pop pills through the daytime

And if I die, tell my momma that I died like a rockstar

Fuck the cop car, they will never catch us

Like a rockstar, living too fast, like a rockstar

 

Tell 'em that I died like a rockstar

Tell 'em I got high like a rockstar

Put me in design, and they put me in the dark

Keep my legacy alive like a rockstar

 

Lifestyle, on the edge, give me your forgiving

See I worship the dead, they worship the living

I done popped a molly, got my geek on, weed blowing

Make this shit your motherfucking theme song, yeah

 

Take drugs, stay high

View the fucking earth from the outside, yeah

Pop pills through the day time

And if I die, tell my momma that I died like a rockstar

Fuck the cop car, they will never catch us

Like a rockstar, living too fast, like a rockstar

 

Like a, like a, like a rockstar (rockstar)

Fucking rockstar (oh, no, oh-oh).
