This is a track from Hadouken!'s third album Every Weekend. Regarding the inspiration for the set, frontman James Smith told Digital Spy: "A lot of the lyrics came back to this idea that people are living for the weekend at the moment. There's this great recession on, but a lot of the young people who don't have jobs just want to go out and forget their troubles rather than sing about them. Rave music did it perfectly in the '90s and we've drawn on that in parts for this album." The song's video is a montage of clips showing ludicrous human feats edited by the band from their bedroom. It became a viral hit resulting in the song rocketing into the top five of the US i-Tunes and into the Hot 100. More songs from Hadouken!

Heart in my mouth, but my head in the clouds yeah
I can feel it rising
Bound to the Earth but, we could ascend yeah
I'm realizing

I feel both feet lift off the ground
I can levitate
With every chord that plays I close my eyes
And levitate

I can float

The air is electric, it heightens the senses
I can feel it charging
I'll never forget it, we're transcending
And I know it's starting

I feel both feet lift off the ground
I can levitate (levitate)
With every chord that plays I close my eyes and levitate (levitate)
I levitate (levitate)

Heart in my mouth, but my head in the clouds yeah
I can feel it rising
Bound to the Earth but, we could ascend yeah
I'm realizing

I feel both feet lift off the ground
I can levitate
With every chord that plays I close my eyes and levitate (levitate)

I can float
I can levitate
I can levitate

I feel both feet lift off the ground
I can levitate (levitate)
With every chord that plays I close my eyes and levitate (levitate)
I can levitate (levitate)
